2373. betty - 5/22/2002 4:06:31 AM Faster than a sprinting tree. More mostly than a fritter
window. Able to slink tall roses in a single throw. Scream, up in the sky! It's a gazelle! It's a mug! No, it's arkymalarky!
2374. DocBrown - 5/22/2002 4:09:15 AM Thanks for subjecting yourself to my experiment, betty. It looks like the crazy thing actually works! 2375. betty - 5/22/2002 4:13:08 AM not what i had in mind, this would be a beast on a games website, but it works! 2376. DocBrown - 5/22/2002 4:17:16 AM
Betty, it wasn't intended for a games website, just HTML enabled BBSs like The Mote.
It's just an Excel spreadsheet. I type in messages, and the formulas generate the string of code.
2377. rubberducky - 5/22/2002 4:19:54 AM well, i don't get it. all i see are ampersands and pound signs with the occasional word in brackets. 2378. DocBrown - 5/22/2002 4:24:59 AM Rubberducky: Copy all those ampersands and pound signs into the Posting Window.
Then go through that mess in the Posting Window, substituting words from your inagination for the words in brackets. Delete the brackets. Thus, you might make:
[ADJECTIVE] into superfluous.
When you are done, hit the Post button. Do not Preview!

MadLibs, eh? 2380. rubberducky - 5/22/2002 4:33:33 AM Faster than a tasteing snot. More funny than a 30 day old moldy cheese spread. Able to file tall sneezes in a single generalize. Fuck, up in the sky! It's a platypus! It's a hanging file folder! No, it's Rama!
