Come on guys... you're going to make it too easy if I just have the one suggestion. With just the one so far, I can write a drabble where no one loses consciousness really easy. The more suggestions I get, the harder that one will become because I'll have to write more and be more creative to get around it (though it won't be hard). I don't know about that...even your Halloween drabble had Ralph knocked senseless. I will think of a few...just be patient.

I like MyTatuo's suggestion. I would say that for length--It cannot be more than 26,500 characters...or the maximum length of one post on the forum. I will come up with more later. I think it would be great to get you a quote that you have to use...and I think someone should decide the title for her. I am drawing a blank now, but I will keep thinking.

Personally, I think my parents' cat is a decendant of Fluffy. She'll try to bowl you over, and I still have nightmares I'm going to end up like Ralph in that drabble because she thinks she's Speed Racer on speed. MissD, Josie, Lauren... come on, everyone's welcome to make suggestions. Otherwise, I might end up with a challenge that is really off the wall.

I think the title should be: Copy Katt.

I think the title should be: Copy Katt. Hmmm... (Mind you, I'm going to be literal here. ) I don't think that title is good, only because there is some question as to whether or not it's a good idea to put the real person into these stories. I personally don't think it is... but if you can find a different title based on that idea, I've got a few in mind as well. (And if it's just gentle teasing, sorry for being literal again. )

I think it would be funny to have it titled "Copy Katt." Mainly because I don't think you could do it. I have other ideas, but I will wait and see what others think first.

Copy Katt is out because it's real-life people in a fantasy world. This is more for this board's safety than anything. I could write a doppelganger story if you'd like, however... just not Pam dealing with Ralph and William Katt. I like the idea of limiting me to one post. While I wouldn't post it just one post, I could at least test it as I go along. I know I can safely write 4,534 words in a post based on that last one I did for the first game thread, so that saves me some grief. (What's really weird... why I can remember stuff like this and almost the entire day I got my adenoids out, but sometimes forget how to make oatmeal?)

You can admit you don't think you could do it, you know.

I can do it, I'm not going to. 'Nuff said. If you'd sign up on the GAH fanfiction board, you can read some of the M-rated stuff I got plot bunnies for. I know, sounds counterproductive... but, it shows that while I don't always write stories and such, doesn't mean that I don't have ideas for them. So... any other challenges save it can only be the length of one post and I can't knock out/make any character faint? BTW, just because I caught the loophole, I'm including in the KO stuff I can't use drugs/anesthetics, even if I keep the person awake. Even conscious sedation you don't necessarily remember what happens, so it's technically a KO there too.

Even conscious sedation you don't necessarily remember what happens, so it's technically a KO there too. Depends...you would have to ask MyTatuo for the clarification on THAT rule. As for the other one, you can't do it..admit it. And if it IS part of the challenge, you would have to do it if you agree to the challenge. Painting yourself into a corner sometimes, you know. Besides, who said that the title "Copy Katt" had ANYTHING to do with William Katt? You are jumping to conclusions...and as normal...the wrong ones.

There's a HUGE difference with Copy cat and Copy KATT, HD, unless you're misspelling stuff again. If you mean Copy Cat, but are referring to Ralph's character, then yes, I'll do it. Or... I can put different characters he's done as if he and Pam are watching TV or something. But no... Katt will not meet Ralph. It's not I can't, I won't. Also, I self imposed the other rule because I don't want poor MyTatuo to post another definition about anesthetics/sedation, etc., and say "I don't even want to see Pam getting a tooth pulled out."

You know, there could be a CHARACTER named Katt who is NOT Billy Katt. You really need to learn to think outside the box. I want poor MyTatuo to be more specific..."I don't want to see Bill even having a BUZZ!"

Buzz... so no booze or illegal drugs either? And, given the past few days, I'm still literal enough to think the real person. That might have to be Miss D's call if I use any character with the name Katt (though I could make it the person's first name. )

I am sure as long as you don't take the REAL William Katt and put him in a compromising position with YOU instead of her, that she will be fine with using the name.

Uh... what makes you think I'd go mary sue here? The only one I've got an idea of putting myself in (and only by name), is one I'm thinking about doing for the alphabet soup writing contest (the nanu-nanu one).
