There seems to be one rule: Don't feed the troll.*

Which I extend (without a line of coding): Use the troll, if you can.

The only rule, tho, is: Don't be used by the troll.

Lately, an innocent has become victim (exaggerating a bit: Drama is my second name) of the troll and became evil, ruining his experience, blackmailing someone else and doing something very wrong (or very stupid, depending on how you see it). He was used by the troll.
Until one can recognize a troll when he sees one, there's no harm. He can /ignore, /avoid, /piss off the troll. Whatever. Or even /play with him.

You know what? I'm amazed by the sheer strength of the troll. And I'm amazed by his wits when it comes down to saying something. Whatever that is.
Of course, I'm aware that's just the strength the Dark Side of the Force gives to a Sith. So I'm prepared to think "asshole" and go on trying to fulfill the Light Side.

*I'm 39. I've seen the race of the trolls being born. I've breastfed the very first troll myself. But I'm not yet over with it. I mean, obviously I've never grown up (and proud of it, tbh)... but I really envy Victor for having a nasty review from the hypothetical troll. I'd like it'd be me. But no, I have to stick with Maga's, Emily's and MattW's. I'm trepidant about "Andromeda Awakening: delusions of eloquence". But no. It won't happen. Sigh.

But, as I said, probably I've never grown up.

PS: Victor. The Baron. It made me feel sick. Like it was ME. Sick, I say. Do it again, please.

Just a clarification: the nasty review was from me, matt w, with no capital letters and a space. MattW is a different person. Confusing, I know.

(And I'm very glad to see that you took our criticisms into account in your revision. I'd like to play it sometime, but there's so much to do...)

From what I've heard, I'd rather eat pig's brains than play that game. But I probably will eat pig's brains.

From what I've heard, pigs' brains are pretty good, although I've never tasted them. (I used to enjoy calves' brains before mad cow disease reared its ugly head and I had to give up the habit for safety's sake.)

The opening line to what could be the oddest fantasy novel of the decade

I definitely get that. I do, too, if they're clever ones, but ...



For me it's like ...

I find movies (good ones) entertaining. I find jugglers (good ones) entertaining.

But if I go to the movies, and some guy stands in front of me, juggling ... and I came to see the movie ...

It's like that.

Some people would argue that eating cow's brains is safer than giving your kid a headlice treatment. But either way, I think it's illegal to sell them now.

I've tried lamb's brains a couple times, but I think I'm cooking them all wrong, because they were kind of gross.

Brains are good, especially fried brains. Tasty. Delicious. But ofc we are talking Italian food, and you know nothing about it, like Italian mafia.


I'm a teacher, nowadays. But I've been a student and I will be one all my life. What's better than entering a school and being taught by the most talented? And what good there is in it if then you don't cope with criticism and try and do better?
Well, let's cut with the crap: could I have done anything else?

Play my game, slacker.

The BEST fantasy novel. Of the century. I'd like to write adult fantasy. I'm so fed up with hobbits and elves I spit them out every morning. In the bath.

Let's do a "Breastfeeding the troll" IF.
If it's good then I convert it into a regular novel and get rich. Then come back here and play the winner.

If this happened as a SpeedIF, I'd find it difficult to resist.
