It's good with rules and all that, but isn't that really against the true JLR spirit?
I mean, we established (unspoken rule) fairly early that rules weren't really a neccessity since JLR was orderly chaotic. At least there appeared to be a general consensus for that!
I wouldn't really agree with that.
Not saying the JLR has to be absolutely orderly, but I don't think chaos has to be the theme of the day. I mean, I love plot twists and dealing with inconsistencies every so often, but I think there should be something resembling order.
We established chaos in JLR-MB, but we established order in The Convention Adventure. I think somewhere in the middle is probably best.

On the matter of J.A.R.V.I.S I might intro that in in my next post. It's just a bit odd if, in the middle of a pitched battle, Spandex & co. Suddenly go 'hey! Here's this cool new comm device we just came up that'. Not to mention that Spandex is really a computer guy, so unless it involved playing tetris he probably wouldn't be involved
OOK OOK ACK EEK!

Wednesday? Shut up or that steel-skin is going bye bye.
On a slightly less confrontational note, isn't anyone gonna post to the story? I know I said I would, but I'm real busy for the rest of the weekend, and most of next week too, so I don't think I'll have time

Is anyone ever going to eat a sandwich? You eat one whenever you feel like eating one. A poster posts to the story whenever they feel like posting. That's generally when you can expect a post.

Feels like a long time since I posted to the story. Don't know what we'll do with the story's present situation, though.

Does anyone here have the *amazing* super-power of summarizing? Even though I've read all the posts in the story, I still get a bit lost with what's happened so far. Maybe a summary of between 150 to 250 words could help?
I'd do it myself, but my brain is fried by the end of the week. We had midterms, too, which made things worse. Oy vey...

TTT & Pig Iron, what you do in your own time is your own business.... 
I'm working on a post to CSF now. 
And Spandex, if your re-read my proposal, I suggested that J.A.R.V.I.S. could be introduced in the next adventure.
That means the adventure after CSF!

After receiving a call asking them to defeat a team called the Crime Society of Fiction (this group is comprised of powerful villains from fiction), the JLR arrived in Big City, only to find a monstrous Vegi-La wreaking havoc. Realizing their numbers weren't enough, the heroes held a membership drive and inducted five new members: Hybrid, Fused, Centurian, Chessmaster, Transneapolitan. Before they could train, though, Vegi-La attacked while the CSF observed in the shadows. In the end, the JLR discovered this Vegi-La was only an off-shoot of the original’s regenerative powers and that the CSF had kidnapped Centurian during the battle.
The JLR split up to search for Centurian. Ace and Wednesday met SpandexMonkeyMan, and encountered timeblinks (sporadic time jumps caused by the CSF’s presence in the real world). The JLR regrouped and boarded Spandex's MLU. The Time Trust appeared and offered his assistance, but just as they gained another hero, the JLR lost Cowgirl Jack in a timeblink. Then, the team encountered the Umber Hulk, a powerful monster who had magically replaced Centurian and was rampaging through the city, but a plan by Britannica trapped it in an underground tunnel. After entering the dark tunnel, though, the JLR found themselves sandwiched between the monster and two CSF teams: the first comprised of Professor Moriarty, who presently holds Centurian's magic die, Lucius Malfoy, Francicso Scaramanga, Spring-Heeled Jack, Grendel, Terminatrix, the Wolfman, and Agent Smith; the second team consists of John Sunlight, Captain Hook, Callisto, and the winged monkeys from Oz.

I've got a pot coming up soon too, but that's pending Brit posting so I know where it's at. And I think TTT is gonna be posting soon as well.
BTW, are you planning to keep your character in the main story, or do you have a spin-off planned? either suits me, but it'd be good if I knew

This is the explanation of why Nuriko's been out of the story thus far. So she's getting into the main story, as soon as someone calls a tow truck.

I posted (and it was another naff one, if you don't mind my saying so)
I also introduced a new character of fictional nature. He's The Angel Islington from Neverwhere. It's kind of a complicated person, but essentially he's a psycho angel who got thrown out of heaven for being involved in the destruction of Atlantis. He's essentially nice but an utter psycho who'd kill you as soon as look at you. And he wants to take over from God.
Spandex is out for now, though he'll be back at the end. That's why I brought in Marlon, as a minor replacement. Feel free to write him out, but don't kill him
