Ah, my thread has been graced with the presence of the creator himself. I'm honored. And yes, i've pretty much figured out that on this board you must never meantion the words: 'my idea for a new episode is...' or anything containing the words 'collaborative' and DEFINITLY not 'erika' Ok, thanks for all the advice. I'll go it alone and assuming my brain doesn't explode learning the scripts, and i don't throw my computer out the window in frustration- i'll finish it and then everyone can complain i put erika in it. But yes, she's dead in it. Don't ask questions, just play the game. In whatever reality you prefer.
