Typically you'd want your log to be a little longer but i didnt want to make you read all of it simply for an example. Note that i use different colors for everything that just makes things a little more presentable.

The log:

u mean your trying to narrate a shoddy battle?

by Guest on Tue Sep 02, 2008 3:50 am

aha, i think thats exactly what it is! Razz

by Guest on Tue Sep 02, 2008 3:56 am

a little obvious? but the log alone makes the battle dull so why not add the naration

by Guest on Tue Sep 02, 2008 3:59 am

I guess, i just think its funny, but as a reader WAAAAY more interesting.

But then, as someone who made the log, it looks like it'd take a while. Even though i dont care cause i dont have shoddy.
