    He left a few seconds of silence after this for dramatic effect. Dana's face was clearly unimpressed.

    Writer: "Erm... OK. You see, these rings of power enable the kids to transform... into wolves!"
    Exec: "Uh huh."
    Writer: "Y-yes... but the wolves have their own individual special power!"
    Exec: "Hmmm, better. What kind of powers are we talking about?"
    Writer: "OK! One of the wolves has wings and can fly! One of them can turn themselves invisible!"

    Dana leans forward, clearly more interested in the proposition.

    Exec: "I like it. What about the others?"
    Writer: "Great! One can generate a protective barrier, one urinates on everything and one breathes fire!"
    Exec: "I... what?"
    Writer: "One breathes fire you know..."

    He then proceeds to make some quite terrible fire noises

    Exec: "No no, the one before that."
    Writer: "Oh yeah! Uri! He urinates on everything."
    Exec: "...right. Is the urine special? Is it like acid or something?"
    Writer: "Nope, just regular wee. It's quite warm when it comes out and makes everything smell slightly unpleasant."
    Exec: "I'm not sure I'd call urinating a special power."
    Writer: "Have you ever tried peeing on demand?"
    Exec: "I suppose not. Could we maybe have a different power for that one though?"
    Writer: "Not really. It's essential to the story."
    Exec: "Having everything covered in piss is essential to the story?"
    Writer: "Yes."
    Exec: "OK... well thanks for coming in. We'll let you know."

    The writer began to leave the office looking disappointed.

    Exec: "Just out of curiosity, who were you thinking could play the part of this wolf?"
    Writer: "Well..."

    Night Fury has asked me to pick up the pace so she can see a few more awards before bedtime. We're gonna get to award #40 and take a break so the Americans can wake up!

    True story, Sephex is a regular consumer of urine. Which doesn't make him a bad person you guys.

    But, thinking about it, this award... is it a good thing? Being nominated here could be a reflection that people want you to survive because you're a great person. On the other hand, could it mean that you're not anyone's favourite character? It does seem that the likelihood of death increases the more you're liked amongst the people. Being a wallflower background character could possibly be a veil of safety. Or is it that you're too cowardly and hide away in a safe plot thread until the whole thing blows over? Personally, I like to take it that you have smarts though. Smart enough to fight the battles you can win. Smart enough to bow down when you have to. Smart enough to say the right things to the right people. Smart enough to take advantage of the right situations to keep yourself ahead and safe. Actually this is just sounding increasingly manipulative.

    I am struggling to put a nice spin on this. It's going to come down to luck. Sheer blind luck. So good luck to everyone here, in survival and in winning this awesome Ciddie.
