I don't know if this is decorous or not, but I wanted to let you know that I have loved Anne of Green Gables for most of my life and I get very excited when I meet other people who appreciate it like I do! And...I chose brown bear for my name, so I...I rather like those too.

Wow, everyone! I didn't know all this about you. By the way, Icy, I do have a question. How do you do a ski lodge? Can anybody please give me some tips?

Well, to do a ski lodge, you...

*Usually post your thread and individual posts under a fake name, often related to the theme of your ski lodge

*Choose a theme for your ski lodge

*Wait for people to join

*Once enough people have joined, you start writing the ski lodge story, in parts. They can be as long or short as you want.

*Then you kill off people who join, one by one. Then, at the end, when everyone is dead, except one person, you reveal that person to be the killer.

This might not be that clear; I've only done one ski lodge and it never really took off. But that's the general idea. You write a story about the CBers and you get to KILL EVERYBODY! Yayy!!! Fun!

That sounds BRILLIANT. I do not entirely understand but that sounds BRILLIANT. Is it... an actual ski lodge? Do you start writing a story set in a ski lodge?
