On any other day you'd be right. But today I'm bonding telepathically with my Soviet Space Monkey and it's doing the typing for me.


The next poster will have spent weeks training a troupe of squirrels to race down a tree, do a dance routine and then hold up the letters of their post. The message is then picked up from orbit via military spy satellite and typed by someone on the space station.

No, very few squirrels around here.

Next poster will be picking his or her nose while typing.

But apart from the squirrels part, it was close? smile

Ewwww. No. I used to work with someone who had that habit and then typed away. The same person who ate large quantities of food at the same keyboard. I think we dumped it when she left. It would never be clean enough.

The next poster is being kept hostage by the Loch Ness Monster, and is typing while bound. The next post will contain a hidden cry for help from the monster who just wants to be left alone and not exploited for tourism.

No, though I did have a close call with a yeti last week. wink

Next poster will us all to believe that they have posted, but there will actually be no post.

No slippers on at present, but normally that would have been a decent guess at this time of year.


The next poster will be juggling three keyboards. As each keyboard is caught, a letter is pressed forming the next post.

You don't know until you try Ibby... Ibby? Oh dear, Medic!

Unfortunately, I was adding to the Words are Rhyming thread before this, so all of my controllable Ants are going into people's Pants about now.

Just how many Marshmallows does it take to press a key? the next poster is about to find out by piling them onto a keyboard.

I don't like marshmallows, so I wouldn't try that.

Next poster is tap-dancing on his/her keyboard (my, what a strong and durable keyboard you have!)

The next poster has travelled across the hidden desert to the unnameable city. There they have braved the numerous dread traps and eldritch denizens of lost worlds to reach their prize. The Egg of the Phoenix, within which resides the perfect Legion World post. The next post will be that post. No pressure.

Every post I make is the perfect Legion World post, why should this one be any different? tongue

Next poster will be using a blowpipe to shoot peas at the board in order to type.

Who would have thought there were so many degrees of perfection smile

I'm not going to get into a debate about when to suck and blow, especially considering the minds around here.


The next poster will have hacked into Jean Michel Jarre's keyboard of light. As the musician plays, each note corresponds to a letter in the next post.

Nope, no hacking skills here.

Although some of my posts probably seem like they are created that way, that's a no. For now anyway. It sounds as though it's something I could get away with.


China's Jade Rabbit will uncover an ancient inscription on the moon. Scientists will be baffled. More so when the text is shown to match the next post. The next poster uses either Time Travel, Precognition or Lunar Frequent Flyer miles to construct the next post.

Didn't say it had to make sense.

Next poster will type by mailing a letter to a fellow poster, who will type the post for him/her.

Didn't that make sense to you? I feel a sense of ....serenity. I'm going to put it in a post and mail it to another Legion Worlder. They can type it up in the next post...oh rats, you got me Ibby!


The next poster couldn't think up a post. But they have managed to cheat by using an ancient Grecian scrying pool to look over the shoulder of another Legion Worlder..

Next poster will let his or her cat play with his/her gadget, and post whatever the cat comes up with.

All my good posts are the cat's.


The next poster is kidnapped by Mexican Forum Pirates. As they place an elaborate cage system around the posters head, they inform her/him//it that unless the post is particularly good, they will release the rat into the first cage. The next post is hides a desperate plea for help!

Oh come on, you think a cage can hold me while my powers are working? Kinetix

Next poster will be asking an Imskite to hop on the keyboard and type out the next post.


Why must power be so elusive?

No, I'm afraid Ray Palmer gets jealous when I do that. The next poster is actually just one on many Carrgian duplicates doing any number of tasks. When did Legion World become just another task to you Next Poster? When?!

This isn't the Guess When thread, and I'm not a Carggite.

Next poster is quite angry and will be posting by banging on the keyboard with a hammer.

Oh honestly! There was totally a "how" before the "when". Some posters are just so gosh darn picky, I'm quite angry about it. Quite angry indee...oh, good call Ibby! smile

No hammer though. Considering the number of Spaceopoly posts that await each morning, are you sure you're not a Carrgite?

The next poster will be wondering if they really are a Carrgite, and why the others are merging together behind their back.

I would have thought YOU were the Carggite, thothkins tongue Or maybe we're both Carggites who have been placed here by our people as sleeper agents. When the right moment comes, we will awaken...


Next poster will be translating their next post into Interlac.

No, I am Copy Kid with Lallorian duplicating powers. All of my selves say so.

My computer just translates the text for my telepathic earplug to pick up, so I don't have to bother with Interlac really.

Since writing, not typing, in Interlac is fussy I wonder if paper is obsolete in the future. Bear that lack of writing ability in mind, every time there's a Magic War, Blight or Tharok conquest.

The next post will actually be a cross post from a religious cookery website, where the secrets of the Legion have been revealed in the inner parts of a pomegranate. The next poster simply copies and pastes.
