Question Foodie Bookies: A Crystal Hall tradition...

With the New Authors going " Yay! I'm up!" in the discord server, the challenge is kinda lost.

So water on something from a new author.

I'll say that next week is something from an older author...

You realize this clue makes us think it is going to be from Branwen aka Dr. Bender, meaning the first piece of a story where Sara will be rescued. I hope this is the case.

murphy's laws prt 2

I think it will be another Gen 1 story from elrod. I don't think whatever Branwen has going on is quite ready, but it will be soon.

So Knockoff 2 part 2 it is!

For the wager: Johnnycakes with a fine selection of jams and preserves.

Everyone is saying Sara... I'm gonna agree.

Cinnamon rolls for all.

Silver Ghost! Xmas ham!

Tis the season for an annual Silver Ghost, so we have 4 likely options, Dissonance part 2, Scald-Crow 1 pt 2, Knockoff 2 prt 2, and Silver ghost....

I cant choose...

Wow, no guesses in 2 weeks? I'll blame it on winter break.

This is a tough one. So many stories have current open ends.

Fox Tails
Dissonance
Business As Usual
Scald-Crow
Knockoff

We have an end to Dorms so it might be awhile until that thread is continued.

And yet...I am sensing something from Morpheus (nothing new since July), JG, or EE.

Leftover potato salad. Please and thank you

Ok now it's just weird. Why is no one bidding as usual? Is it just me here? Sara, is that you up ahead? Bologne sandwich?

I've seen a list of what had been scheduled for January, so it wouldn't be fair to jump in with my two cents either way.
Assuming it hasn't changed.

Is the queue available somewhere and stopping the speculation? Maybe there’s a mole on the inside.

Queue list is only accessible to authors and it is subject to change at any time. We aren't suppose to reveal it or what's coming up or so I've been informed.

Dissonance or Scald-Crow,


usually Silver ghost would have been added to by now but seems not

Thanks SS. I'm loving the new stories and open for anything and everything. Even a double release week! haha

Some corn chips and guac on Dissonance pt 2

As it's almost Burns night, i'll offer haggis and clapshot on something suitably mind-stretching.

Swedish Fish Oreos on a new Dorms.

Grainne adore's guac -a lot-. Also if you want to ask me questions I'm always on Discord.

One more try for Dissonance pt 2. (not going to take JG's bait but I would LOVE to see it come out this week)

hmm...I have a can of chickpeas. Need to go to the store.

left over Chinese food on Fox Tails prt 3

I never was a fan of Chinese food myself but I might grow to enjoy it in time.

Swedish Fish Oreos on a new Dorms.

Fox tails conclusion. Ham n cheese.

A plate of Chef Peter's choux pastries on Diamonds part 5.

Something from an author who's been quiet. Morpheus, EE, EW. Of course the hint of a JG story has him in the running. Spaghettios!

Hmmm...currently open stories:
Rain on a Sunny Day
New Outcasts
New Sara

My $$ is on more Riley. Cherry pie for our founding father.

Incorrect. There are other stories in an open state. Let me see...
- A Goldfish in the Ocean
- Fox Tails
- Charge of the Light Vignettes
- Fight or Flight
- The Mark of Miss Scarlett
- A Good Man
- Hunger
- Myriad Meetings
- Diamonds are a Vamp's Best Friend
- Good Cop / Bad Cop
- Silver Ghost, Golden Angel
...not to mention the ones left incomplete by authors who have withdrawn from Whateley.

A cup of coffee on Fox Tails - Kitty turned it down, and why let it go to waste?

(No nanobots, I promise.)

Wow! Is there an active list that we can refer to? It's always a guessing game to me. Thank you!

I give up. Popcorn. Enjoying the stories we get 95% of the time

marie7342231 wrote: I give up. Popcorn. Enjoying the stories we get 95% of the time

A good week to not guess... this one's from out of left field a bit...

Something from EE or EW. Hot dogs & kraut

Scald Crow, leftover italian (not pizza)

marie7342231 wrote: Something from EE or EW. Hot dogs & kraut

FINALLY I got one. It's been a while. Doubling down on the Hot dogs & kraut and hoping for the 3rd part of Knockoff 2.

One caged puppy on the next part of Dissonance.

Also, to cover the spread a bit, a bottle of dark Caribbean rum on Diamonds, a Power Bar on Esoteric, a box of Froot Loops on Imp, a mug of 19th century style steam beer on the Immortals encountering (and probably getting stuck protecting) the nascent Mystic Six, a plate of lasagne on Envy, a heart-shaped box of leftover Valentine's Day candy on Scapegrace, and a spaghetti and meatballs MRE on a new Outcasts storyline.

(Who am I kidding? The next story is probably going to be Gen 2, I just have no idea who. Or else it will be Murphy, but she's got enough problems regarding luck that I don't need to add gambling to them.)

I admit this MAY be influenced by it appearing on BC, Scald Crow... steak.

Authors + Shelter in Place = double release week?

I would LOVE to pick things up with Jennifer Kelly. 2 rolls of toilet paper.

Geez, it's been so quiet. COVID just stinks. Hoping for something from EE. It's been awhile! Umm, pizza?

marie7342231 wrote: Geez, it's been so quiet. COVID just stinks. Hoping for something from EE. It's been awhile! Umm, pizza?

not as fun when there are more weeks without a new story than not

For some reason, I think EE has been busy in the background. A round of steam beer on the next immortals story, and a second round on me if it is about them meeting the young Mystic Six.

Hoping for something to propel our main stories forward:
Gen 1 - Kimba Crew, Lanie & friends, Sara's 2nd story, or the new freshmen
Gen 2 - Vic, Erika, Laura, Morgana, Dorms, etc

Leftover Spätzle is on hand

definitely more G2 stories in the works, more Dragonsfyre - and Thulia, and quite a few of the other characters as well

I am working on something, but it's not Inaba. They have been mentioned in passing in one of The Sin stories.

sigh It seems that Rose's latest story has been 'leaked' on the Original Timeline page, so I guess there's no guessing this week.

Whatever you're looking at, it's not visible to guests who haven't logged on.

Sorry about that, I'll have to check with Kristin to see why it did that.

*waves*

Well, I'll put up a lemon pound cake for the next three titles.

FIrst, a little story from Maggie entitled, Nikki and the Bad Hair Day.

Then, Diane Castle will follow up with Ayla and the Bad Heir Day.

And not to be outdone the rest of the canon (TINCC) will post, Team Wondercute and the Bad Hare Day.

I'm assuming that's a Tia story, because Inaba isn't on campus yet.

A bottle of bourbon on a new Immortals story, with a side bet of a bottle of steam beer on it involving the young Mystic Six.
