Re: Dares 2011!

Dare: A character yells “You can’t do that, it doesn’t fit with the novels genre”
BP: If everyone nods understandingly
DBP: If someone else says in reply “Dude this is NaNoWriMo anything can happen.”

HAHAHA I am so going to use that!

Have your characters throw a massive party in the middle of a tense scene.
BP: if everyone is invited, including the villains and superminor characters (e.g., nameless grocer from ch. 3)
DBP: if the nameless grocer from ch. 3 doesn't show up, and everyone is upset.
TBP: if someone spikes the punch, and everyone ends up drunk.
QBP: if, while drunk, the villain reveals his evil plot in great detail, but no one recalls it in the morning.
QuintupleBP: if, while drunk, one character confesses love to another, and the confessee remembers it in the morning, but the confesser has no recollection.

Can we add in a lifetime's supply of cookies if it's the villain and the MC confessing love to one another?

Bad joke one . . . ooh, I have a evil sorcerer (Meryl the Magician- Merlin's half-brother lol) who may do just that!

Have a boring character make up a bad joke.
BP: have that character crack him/herself up whenever he hears it
DBP: have the character tell it multiple times, to whoever will listen.
TBP: have the character tell it in the middle of the climatic scene
4BP: have the character get it wrong and start cursing in the climatic scene

Taking, thanks! Though, of course, now I have to make up a bad joke, which I haven't the faintest idea of how to do because I've never actually made up my own joke, but I will manage!

I am taking the bad joke one. It works too well to pass up.

I am so tempted to take the one about calling up the relative to borrow the TSoD. That might need to happen... haha, thanks!

I was wondering how in the world I was going to fit the TSoD in this year's Nanovel. Thank you, thank you, thank you! I can use all but the BP, since it'll be Vanessa, Ian's daughter, doing the asking. Woot! So by my count, that's 12 points, a cookie, and ice cream for me. :o))

totally taking the "this is nanowrimo! anything can happen!"

The bad joke gives a needed character handle...

Sooooo gonna use the bad joke one. :D

I'm so doing this. Granted, I must edit it out later since I have this horrid fear of breaking the fourth wall, but that's awesome! ::teehee: ::yes:

I'm doing it. The bad guy's going to kill a dragon with a laser gun, and everyone else is going to freak out. Even the bad guys.
