Justin switches back to third person, because he and Lynny agree that it's a good way to keep foolish spammers out of the thread. That, and it's kinda the thing.
*hugs Justin the ice cream gathering mod*:)

Alex sits back and laughs "You guys are all freaks."
Alex has grown to like third person.. and is too brain dead to use 2nd person.... her brain would explode if she tried...

Lynn feels that they can make concessions here and there for more established persons, but she would prefer if the bulk of IPR posters used anything BUT first-person narration because as stated elsewhere, "it keeps the idiots out".

Lynn also hopes Marcus' leg is feeling better.

Katie thinks that the use of maths in this thread is the true source of degeneration. She will not be returning. You have ruined it.
When Katie says bad things it makes baby Evan cry :(

On a side note, Justin wishes to announce, "Three more sleeps! And then another three after that!"

Lynn is fretting about what she is going to wear.

Lynn is also trying to learn how to fly so she can see Justin's dogs NOW rather than later.

Evan tells Lynn not to fret, she looks like a gorgeous glitter princess whatever her apparel.

Monique bumbles into the thread...not knowing who, or what has happened. She suggests that perhaps everyone take on a fourth person approach to the thread. This would consist of being in a parallel universe. Yes...now...what was Monique saying again?

Lynn thinks it would be an exciting prospect, to "create" a fourth-person narrartion. She thinks now is a very good time for other people's input... this is a serious topic of discussion!

Wouldn't fourth person be time wise? Change of tense anyone?
Lynn isn't exactly sure but she thinks it's an interesting concept.

If 1D is... don't know, and 2-dimensional is a "flat" shape, and 3-dimensional is a... well, "physical" shape with both height and width (therefore mass, as well?) then what is the fourth dimension? And is Lynn going in completely the wrong direction by trying to look at it from a mathematical perspective?

Using his post cognitive powers, Evan notes that this issue has been raised in this very thread before - indeed even the concept of fifth person was bandied about. He also notes that most everyoneposted confusedly - though perhaps this is because Evan was not there to use his mystic abilities to stabilise them.

Lynn can't remember discussing fourth or fifth-person narrative (is that grammatically correct?). What did she miss?

Lynn asks Justin how a change of time perspective would effect writing?
