> > Anyone interested in posting their own attempts at a BAM script up here? I think it might be kinda neat just to see some more reader scripts. It would also mean that we could do books that have already been done, or that don't have a place on Rinkworks official (i.e. horror stuff). Just an idea. Anyway, I'll start it with a real quick attempt at the Iliad (which I know is going to be on Classics soon after it's opening):

The collective Harry Potter works:

(Harry gets made fun of, and something evil happens.)

HARRY: Help! Someone's out to get me!

TEACHERS: Oh NO! Everyone help him!

(Harry breaks the rules.)

MRS. McDONELLORWHATEVERHERSILLYNAMEIS: You broke the rules, but you did it for the right reason, so it's OK.

(They find the guy who is out to get Harry, but it turns out it's SOMEONE ELSE, the ONE YOU LEAST SUSPECT.)

HARRY: Thanks. Oh! Voldemort!

(VOLDEMORT shows up and then GOES AWAY.)

THE END
