 * 3) Sunshine and Sprinklemist will read and judge the stories, and determine which team wins.
 * 4) The winning team is INVINCIBLE!!!
 * 5) Fans and competitors will vote for the bottom two of the team via poll.
 * 6) The bottom two will give reasons to stay in the game.
 * 7) Sunshine and Sprinklemist will conference and decide on who to eliminate.
 * 8) Repeat steps 1-8.
 * 9) Later in the game, there will be a merge, and the two teams will become the Best-Sellers.

Week 1
Sunshine: Welcome one and all... to TOTAL DRAMA AUTHOR 3!!!!! Nalyd decided he was tired of hosting, so this season your beloved host will be none other than EVERYONE'S FAVORITE PIXIE!!!!!! *waits for applause, there is none* Here with me is my lovely co-host, SPRINKLEMIIIIISSSSTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *still no applause* ...oh... right... no one's here yet...

Tdiandrockmusic2:WOOHOO! GO SUNSHINE, GO SPRINKLE!!! (LOL, I shouldn't have had those Cocoa Puffs.)

Tdirm2(Tdiandrockmusic2)-*listens to Coldplay and patiently waits for the other competitors*

TBTDIF: N-Nalyd's not hosting? WHAT!? Is he gonna compete? It's nothing without original Season 1 veterans. So far I'm the only one.

Tdirm2-I could have joined the first two seasons, but I didn't. So it makes me an almost veteran.

TBTDIF: I don't think you were even here first season. Didn't you wanna join second season though?

NIzzy: Hi, it's me NIzzy! *silence* Aw c'mon!

Chimmy: Hey, it's me! Just so I'm not asking this during the challenge, where do we post the stories?

Tdirm2:TBTIF, I had an anoymous account for season one, I considered making an account and signing up. I have no clue why I didn't sign up for TDAuthor 2. I probably would have gotten bowled over by Gigi, Sprinkle, and Sunshine.

Sprinklemist: Chimchar, There will be spaces on this page for each author to put their story after the challenge is announced. Welcome to our first nine signer uppers. *glares at the lovely comment* It's true.

Chimmy: Thanks! (Yeah, n00bish as I'll ever be. XD.)

Owester: I'm back. I hope I'll do better.

Anonymos: I'm BAAAAAAAACK!!! Who missed me?

Chimmy: Wow. I'm so honored to...type..among these great authors...LOL.

CK11: Same...w00t

Usitgz: I'm back and as ready as ever.

Tdifan: Yep, me too! Ready to rock! *plays really long guitar solo*

Sprinklemist: Only one more spot to fill.

NIzzy: I feel hyper! (Thats danger to everybody)

Tdafan:RUN!!!!!!!

NIzzy: Yay sugar rush!!!! LOL

Chimmy:NIzzy, me too! Let's play Duck-Duck-Snipe! Or Pin-the-tail-on-the-towel! Ooh! Or even Jump-Off-My-Neighbor's-roof-with-my-friend-Mr. Phil Broomy!

NIzzy: Yay! *attacks someone*

Tdifan: and I thought I was strange....o_0

Tdafan:Same here*walks off to the lake*

NIzzy: I'm not stange I'm emotional damged! (LOL)

Tdafan:*swims*

Chimmy: *Notices Phil battered on the floor.* NIzzy, you attacked Phil. PHIL! Speak to me!

Phil: ...

Chimmy: NOOOOOOOOOOOO! You monster! (JK, by the way. But I think Phil went to the great closet in the sky...XD)

Tdirm2:*turns off Coldplay* Hey everybody!

Chimmy: *Is mourning Mr. Phil Broomy.*

Tdirm2:Is everybody insane except me?

Tdifan: *Points to NinjaIzzy and Chimmy and whispers to Tdirm2* Those two scare me......

Chimmy: I HEARD THAT!! I picked it up through my supersonic hearing. I am NOT crazy! Now excuse me while I mourn my dearly departed broom friend. *Goes back to mourning*

Rocky: *arrives* Don't wanna be some fanfic writing idiot!

Tdifan: Hey, Rocky! *high fives Rocky*

NIzzy: I'm not crazy I'm just depressed and I did'nt kill anyone! He's just KO'd!!!!

Chimmy: ...Could it be? Mr. Broomy?

Mr.Broomy: *Hops up*

Chimmy:HE'S ALIIVE!! MR. BROOMY LIVES TO SWEEP ANOTHER DAY! (XD)

NIzzy: I thought I had mental problems...

Tdifan: Oh, don't worry! You still have mental problems! *points to Chimmy* She just has more! XD

NIzzy: Okay I can deal with that...*get out gun that shoots chainsaw's* MWAHA!!!

Tdifan:*runs away*

NIzzy: *laughs* I was'nt gonna shoot anyone why do you think my parents let me have a gun!

Chimmy: Uhh...Tdifan, I'm a she. But even though I have mental problems, no Mental Institution can hold me!

Random nurse: Time to go night-night, Chimmy...

Chimmy: NEVER!! CHIMMY GOES NIGHT-NIGHT WHEN CHIMMY PLEASES!!! *Runs off to Tibet with Mr. Broomy.*

Tdirm2:The first challenge cannot come too early.

Sorrel: *appears as usual* who are these people i mean i reconginze her *points to TDifan* and him *points to Rocky* and you 2 *points to Sunshine and Sprinkle*

Cards: I'm so glad to be here!! I hope I don't get the boot first!!

Sorrel: *acting ditzy like lindasy* who are you???

Chimmy:I don't know how to explain the others to Sorrel, but I'm Chimchar2356025. I'm a newcomer who wants to become a better writer. By the way, does anyone want some Blubber Nuggets I picked up in Tibet? Mmmmmm, they're chewy!

Tdafan:Sorrel,Tdifan,Rocky we need to make sure TBTDIF is the first voted off.You in???

Sorrel: hi chimchar uh 23456

Chimmy:It's 2356025. Oh, and Tdafan, I'd gladly join you if it means not getting kicked off 1st!

Tdafan:Thanks Chimmy Im gonna go out and catch some waves before our challenge

Chimmy:I'll give you a jar to aid in the process! (Bad pun alert!)

Tdafan:ok then...*starts surfing*

Sunshine: Welcome to this season's 16 aspiring authors!!! Sprinklemist and I will determine the teams soon, then the first challenge will start tommorow!

Sorrel: (tomorrows?!? me be busy... ill try to get my entry in) k bye bye sunshine!~

Oweguy: Hey. Rocky joined. I hope he'll do better this season.

Dominator: Hi, I am Nalyd's real life friend. Nalyd told me that I could talk now since we had gotten enough sign-ups... Hi everyone.

Cards: Hi!!! Hey Sunshine when does the first challenge start?

Oweguy: Sunshine just woke up. -__-

Chimmy:I know how that feels. I woke up 20 minutes ago and my brother is already outside...

NIzzy: I woke up a couple of hours ago *eye twichs*

Oweguy: This morning I woke up at around 9:00.

Chimmy: Mr. Broomy woke up at 6:30 and is out taking tap dancing lessons. :D

Oweguy: I'll hate it when I have to wake up for school in the morning. X(

Chimmy: Me too! Especially since they changed the start time to 7:20. Now I have to wake up at 5:30!

NIzzy: I love school! *eye twitches*

Chimmy:Me too, but it's the early wake-up-call that irks me.

Oweguy: WHA?!

Chimmy: Think about it this way: You can't get to where you want to be if you don't have the smarts to do it. Oh, and by the way, BEST FRIEND in MY CLASS! BOO YAH!!

Chimmy:But I get up so late that I usually have no energy when I wake up early...I'm pretty sure I'm nocternal. Am I the only one here who's still wide awake at 11:24 pm?

Tdirm2: When is the first challenge going to be posted? I'm getting anxious.

NIzzy: Umm Why are you getting anxious?

Tdirm2:Because I wanna write!

NIzzy: Yeah I got that but you can't rush camps.

Oweguy: (Sighs) Things won't be the same without Nalyd.

Sunshine: Alright, thanks to Sprinkemist, we have our teams! Anonymos, Tdi, Chimchar, Sorrel, Dominator, Tdifan, Rocky, and Cards777 are the '''WRITING GOPHERS!!! Turnertang, TBTDIF, NIzzy, Cokeman11, Tdiandrockmusic2, Oweguy, Tdafan123, and Usigtz are the TYPING BASS!!! '''The competiton has officially begun!!!

Oweguy: I sure hope me and the others will try and make the Typing bass win this season. They didn't win once at all last season.

Dominator: Come on team, let's do this. Don't let Sunshine down. We just gotta keep busting out stories and make sure we win.

Anonymos: Um... I follow the episodes as they are aired on television... I have no idea about eliminations up until episode 14... What should I do instead?

Chimmy:If you want to, you could look on the Total Drama Wiki. If not, then I don't know.

Chimmy:Then again, I did place all the current characters in my story...

Anonymos: I'll just look at the eliminations. It's okay. I'll live.

Tdirm2:I've got my story typed up, just need to copy it to here, that could probably be in an hour or two. Also, Oweguy, WE SHALL BRING GLORY TO THINGS WITH BASS IN IT!!!!!!!!!

Chimmy:I know Bass victory is inevitable, maybe this week, maybe the next, but sometime. For now, let's try to win, Gophers!

Sorrel: ya we will win!

Chimmy: Hey, how come everyone I made friends with is on the other team except Sorrel? 0_o

Cards: I'll be your friend!

Chimmy:Thanks!

Tdirm2: Tdafan, are you trying to butter up Sunshine? If so, niiiice.

Tdafan:I just wanted to add some humor

Tdirm2: Im really nervous that I'll be voted out because nobody knows me except for the hosts and Anonymos. Am I just paranoid?

Tdifan: GO GOPHERS! GO GOPHERS! *does the LeShawna/Noah/Owen dance*

Tdafan:(CONF)I hope we win if we dont i bet ill be voted off

Sorrel: *caramelldansens* waka waka laka!!!!! na na na na na na *goes into insane random mode* who ha who ha na na na na na na na shes my best friend something somthine tickle in my tummy it tastes so yummy LA LA LA LA (dont even ask....)

Oweguy:(CONF) Actually. I think I should lead my team. I was on a winning team last season. I'll try not to get voted off.

Tdi: GO WRITING GOPHERS!!!!! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tdafan:I think Oweguy should be team captin

Sorrel: go gophers!!!

Tdafan:keep cheering,as long as TBTDIF gets voted off ill be happy

Tdirm2:(CONF) Oweguy said that he should be leader. I disagree, you don't need a leader when success depends on people he doesn't know in real life.

Cards:(CONF) I really think that the Writing Gophers can win this challenge!

Chimmy:(CONF) What's up with all the confessionals lately? Any way, TDIRM, I don't like what you just said. I don't know your backround or anything, so I'm gonna cut you some slack. But how does Dom's accountlessness affect his writing abillity? And so what about Sorrel's past? Just because she hasn't won anything doesn't mean she won't win this! And just because I'm a newcomer doesn't mean I don't have any potential! If the phrase "Do unto others as you would have others do unto you." gets called into play, no offense, but you're gonna be in a world of hurt pretty soon.

Tdafan:*is asleep,waiting for the results*

Tdirm2: Wait, somebody else wrote that, I acually wrote the first two sentences then I left for a minute without saving. Somebody else in my life said the rest. Oh gosh I apologize for that, I deleted the offending part.

Dominator: Way to go team, lets keep up the good work.

(CONF) Dominator: I don't remember Total Drama Author having confessionals... Whatever. I think I might be the best author on the team. I've got potential nobody else knows about. I may just win! Hopefully my IP status will not be used against me.

TBTDIF: Who said I should be voted off? That wasn't cool, Tdafan. This is a writing contest. And do you believe I have good writing or what? Why do you want me out, any fricking way?

Dominator: TBTDIF, calm down. If you get angry chances are even more likely they'll try to vote you off....

Tdafan:To tell you the truth you arent exactly nice

Tdirm2:(CONF) Why is everybody ganging up on TBTDIF? What wrong has he done?

Chimmy:TDIRM, I accept your apology. But if anything like it happens again...Oh, and Dom, if anyone tries to use your IP status against you, you can count on me to stand up for you, my friend.

Sprinklemist: Tdafan, TBTDIF never did anything against you (to my knowledge), try not to stir up trouble. Everyone try to remain civil toward each other, please.

Sorrel: so when does challenge end

Sprinklemist: Whenever Sunshine protects the page and tells me what team I'm reviewing. Lol.

Sunshine: So much drama week one... guys, PLEASE don't gang up on each other. This is a new season, a clean slate, we're all starting over. On a happier note, I'm protecting the page now, the challenge is officially over! Sprinkle and I will do reviews and discuss the winning team, and then the bottom two poll will be put up. Good luck everyone!

Oweguy: We won! We won the first challenge! The Typing Bass actually won for once.

Chimmy:Wait-MY STORY WAS GOOD!? OMG HOLY CRAP!!! *Faints* (Hey, I said Bass victory was inevitible, and it happened. Let's give it our all next time, Gophers! And my problems are pretty easy to correct. Converting from past tense to present is hard in a long story, and I sometimes forget to press enter twice on the wiki. And that was honestly one of my best stories I ever wrote. Next time, I'm going full force!)

Sorrel: ya it was chimmy

Chimmy: *Is still KO'd*

Chimmy:*Wakes up* Wait- someone voted for me in the poll? Is it because I stunk in their opinion, or am I a threat?

Sorrel: prob a threat

Chimmy:Well, that makes me fell a bit better, but if I'm a threat, doesn't it make more sense to keep me to help our team win, then you eliminate me when the merge comes??

Tdafan:(CONF)Its two of my best friends here up for the vote*sigh*either way its gonna suck for me

Chimmy:*Pats tdafan on the back* It's okay dude. Wait-I DID'T GET ELIMINATED! YES!!! LIFELONG GOAL NUMBER 1 COMPLETE! NEXT GOAL:BUILD DEVICE THAT CAN EXTRACT DUNCAN FROM THE TELEVIsION!!! (XD!!)

NIzzy: Holy crap! *randomly puts hand in the TV and pulls Duncan out*

Tdafan:*starts singing its sucks to be me*

NIzzy: *sings with tdafan*

Tdafan:(CONF)i never meant to try to vote out TBTDIF I just wanted people to see that im not an underdog like they think

NIzzy: *smashes head into conf* Aw I don't think your an underdog! your one of the only people who can be as crazy as me without there head going BOOM!!!! *giggles* (LOL)

Chimmy:*rocks out to I Am...All of Me* (XD)

TBTDIF: Guys, stop pretending there's a confessional. There is none, as there has NEVER, EVER, EVER been ANY!!!!!!!!!!

NIzzy: Gee sorry.

Tdafan:Yeesh calm down.Now I might have a reason to vote you out

Dominator: TBTDIF, calm down. Dude, you are getting angry over NOTHING! Please, it makes it unpleasant to do this camp when you keep getting easily annoyed. And Sunshine and Sprinklemist will tell us if there is or isn't a confessional. This isn't your camp. Please, just calm down.

NIzzy: I agree.

Tdafan:Exactly what I was thinking Dominator

TBTDIF: I didn't really mean anger, I just was...well, I guess there's no point in explaining it.

Tdafan:Next time say it calmly ok?(CONF)If he keeps this up he is gonna be next

NIzzy: *sigh*

Cards: What's wrong NIzzy?

Tdafan:You ok?*walks to NIzzy*

NIzzy: Er yeah.

Tdafan:*sigh*I dont know what to do my best friends are the bottom 2!!!Should I quit this thing

Dominator: Listen up, Gophers. I say that when we win we all have to agree on who to vote for in the poll. That way we can decide one person in their bottom two. What do you guys think?

Tdafan:i like that idea

Dominator: Tdafan, you are a Bass. Why would you betray your own team?

Chimmy:Uhhh...I like it!

Tdafan:ohh I got mixed up.So Bass if you want Oweguy as our captain say I. I!!!!

Challenge 1
This week's challenge is to make up episode 14 of Total Drama Action. The challenge, elimination, etc. can be whatever you want. However, please stay in continuity with the other episodes (ie. Don't have Trent there when he's already been eliminated). Other than that, you can do whatever you please! If you need to look at what happened in past TDA episodes, you can look on the Total Drama Wiki. The story is due on Thursday, which, unless stated otherwhise, will always be the due date for stories. Good luck!

Sprinklemist's Reviews (Writing Gophers)
Anonymos - A very good story, and very plausible. I absolutely loved the challenge idea (the mystery genre is my favorite), and your sense of humor fit the tone of the actual show (lol at the evidence that was Chef's). Everyone was perfectly in character. As for the negative, I noticed two grammatical errors toward the beginning, and I thought the start of the story was pretty slow paced. I wish that the challenge came sooner, as that's when the story truly began for me. Overall, the positive outweighs the negative.

Tdi - I really enjoyed the way you began the story with a recap of the previous actual episode. This grounded the story in reality from the beginning. You had a creative and plausible challenge idea. The only thing I noticed that was negative was spelling and tense. You had a few spelling errors, and while you tried to remain in present tense, you slipped up a few times. One instance is the final sentence, which says in part, "Chris said as it ends". Overall, I think you are a strong competitor. If you fix these small mistakes, I think you'll only improve.

Chimchar - I'm impressed. Your story was original, sweet, and pretty funny. I liked the challenge idea, and the way that you actually had Justin do something. To me there were two glaring problems, though. One problem was that you kept switching between present tense and past tense, keep an eye on that. The other problem is that you would write a paragraph and have two characters speak within it. A paragraph never should have two characters speaking in it, unless under specific circumstances. Your writing will be even better if you try to correct these kinds of mistakes.

Sorrel - I love the fact that you wrote in separate paragraphs. It makes the story easier to read, and nicer to look at. Unfortunately, your story is marred by a lot of spelling and grammar mistakes. It made the story fairly confusing. Proofread, proofread, proofread.

Dominator - This story was really good. I enjoyed a lot of things about it. Everyone was in character (Beth was really funny), and the challenge ideas were clever. You are a very good writer. The only thing I can criticize is some fairly minor spelling mistakes. Things like saying "to" instead of "two". "Of" instead of "off". "LeShawa" instead of "LeShawna" (that one made me lol). Proofreading will help there, as those are fairly common mistakes. But overall the story was great. Keep it up.

tdifan - I can honestly say that this was my favorite story. Your grammar and spelling was fantastic. It had my favorite title. I was enjoying everything immensely, until... It ended right in the middle. I'm really sorry that you couldn't finish in time. It's hard to compare your story to the completed ones, but at least you started.

Rocky - I'm really sorry that you were unable to post a story. Especially, when almost everyone else was able to.

Cards777 - Your story was fine. I liked the recap of the previous episode. There were a few grammar problems, though. I could tell that you changed your wording, and forgot to erase what you were replacing. Also, I think that the dialogue could have been spiced up a little. I did like the "Lindsay look it's a mall!" part, although it was missing some punctuation. I thought that the structure of your story was solid, but you made some errors in that regard. You, I assume accidentally, placed two different people talking in the same paragraph.

Sunshine's Reviews (Typing Bass)
Turnertang- Nice work, this was a great challenge idea, and you put across the characters’ personalities very well. You had some very minor grammar issues, though, like forgetting the closing quotation mark in a few sentences, and some sentences could have been two sentences instead of one. Also, you referred to Duncan as a “she” at one point, LOL. Finally, the beginning seemed somewhat abrupt. I think it would have been better if you’d had a recap at the beginning. Overall, if you had fixed those issues, this would have been perfect.

Thebiggesttdifan- This was great! Your spelling and grammar was excellent. The musical challenge was great. And I loved that the monster came back! The characters were all written well, and the ending twist was incredible! Excellent job overall!

NIzzy- This was a good challenge idea, the characters were written well, and it was really funny! But… please don’t use script format. Like, don’t use (Conf) and *At the caves*, use “[person] said in the confessional” and “Later, at the caves, [whatever happens]”. You also had some minor grammar problems, like forgetting commas, and some minor spelling issues. Make sure to fix those next time.

COKEMAN11- This was hilarious, and a great idea for a challenge! Those poor interns! I also loved Izzy’s brief return, though I didn’t understand why she was about to faint. The way you wrote the characters was great as well. However, like NIzzy, please don’t use script format. Except for that, though, it was great!

Tdiandrockmusic2- This was great! Duncan-Heather??? So dramatic!!! The challenge and characters were great as well! The only problem was some minor grammar stuff, like forgetting commas. Also, there was when you wrote part of a sentence, ended it with a comma, then had someone talking in the next paragraph. I’m not sure if that’s grammatically incorrect or not, but it did look odd. Overall, nice work!

Oweguy- Nice job with the challenge idea and characters. You did have some grammar issues, though. There was also something I think was a mistake at the beginning- “Owen did not do anything wrong.” repl. “Owen did not do anything wrong.” replying Beth a bit upset. My guess is that this was an accident either while writing or posting. Also, please don’t clump everything into one paragraph, it makes it much easier to read.

Tdafan123- This was a good challenge idea, and parts of this were funny, like Courtney crashing after seeing Justin with his shirt off and Duncan breaking up with Courtney for Sunshine. However, you had MAJOR spelling and grammar issues throughout the story. Also, like Owe, please don’t stick everything in one paragraph.

Usitgz- Murder mystery! Great!!! This story was hilarious, and your spelling and grammar was great. The characters were written well, it was a great challenge idea, and I loved Detective Lindsay!!! However, it seemed to end rather abruptly, and I would have liked it if, instead of talking about how someone did or said something, have them actually say or do it. Other than that, great!!!

Results
Sunshine: Okay... Sprinklemist and I have made our decision. The winner of this challenge is... The Typing Bass! Congratulations! Gophers... all of you are now susceptible to elimination. A poll will be put up, and the two Gophers with the most votes will be in the bottom two. One of those two will be eliminated from Total Drama Author 3. Good luck to you all.

Sprinklemist: Suspectable. Lol!

Sunshine: ...I used the wrong word again, didn't I? (I can write, but I can't talk, LOL XD)

Sprinklemist: I think you were going for "susceptible". Here I am criticizing the main host. &gt;_&lt;

Sunshine: OH!!! Right!!! XD *changes it* All better! XD

Gophers Vote
Who should be in the bottom 2 this week? Anonymos Tdi Chimchar Sorrel Dominator Tdifan Rocky Cards777

Sunshine: All right, the votes have been cast, and our bottom two is... Rocky and Tdifan. Each of you, please give arguments to stay, and tommorow Sprinklemist and I will decide which one of you is going home.

The Decision
Sunshine: Alright... this was a hard decision. But in the end, the one leaving is... Rocky. I'm sorry you weren't able to finish your story, but in the end we couldn't keep you over someone who'd started their story. Bye, dude.

Week 2
Sunshine: Ready for the next challenge, guys?

Cards: Heck yeah!

Anonymos: You know it, girlfriend! (Snaps fingers.)

Oweguy: Ready to do the second challenge. (Sunshine. Please update the elimination chart.)

TBTDIF: I know I'm leaving if my team loses. But we can't lose. We've got...um...me...and...other guys who are pretty good writers!

Dominator: Gophers, when we win this week we need to all agree who to vote for on the Bass team. I say we pick their best player. With their best player in the bottom two, the other person will automatically go! It's genius! *laughs evilly* (LOL, I guess Nalyd's rubbed off on me)

Oweguy: Bass, we should try and win again like first challenge. Work hard and we'll beat those gophers!

Tdafan:*sighs*(CONF)I dont know if I should quit or not.If Tdifan goes next i probably will

Chimmy:It's okay, Tdafan. Whatever happens, I'll be there to lend a hand. *I'll Be There by the Jackson 5 starts playing*

Tdafan:*watching TV*

TV:In a world where people say weird stuff

Person:yeathatdangoldcarwontgovroomvroommanyouknow

Tdirm2: Hey everybody *pauses TV*. NIzzy, Tdafan, kindly stop giving me edit conflicts. I just had my EIGHTH ONE!

Tdafan:Oops*plays TV*

NIzzy: Sorry I probaly did it again.

Tdafan:SHHHHHHH

TV:he will discover...NOTHING!!!!.ON October 468...take shelter for DANGOLDSOMETHING

Tdirm2: STOP IT STOP IT STOP IT!!!

Tdafan:Stop what??

Tdirm2: Stop giving me edit conflicts! Let somebody else talk.

Tdafan:Calm down or you could be next

Sorrel: guys calm down i always get edit conflicts and its N O R M A L

Tdafan:*is about to punch Tdirm2*

Sorrel: and we are here to make friends *glares at tdafan* and not be made at each other because of edit conflicts *glares at Tdrim2*

Tdafan:Whatever*walks away*(CONF)Why is everyone here so annoying.If this keeps up I will quit

Sorrel: so sunshine when is our next assigniment

Tdafan:Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr*punches tdirm2 but misses*

Sorrel: *grabs his arm* what did i say....

Tdafan:Dont tell me what to do

Sorry Tdafan, it's just that I was frustrated because I got 12 edit conflicts, and when I get edit conflicts it screws up my computer for a moment. So sorry for losing my cool a minute ago, I calmed down then started typing this.

Tdafan:Im sorry too(CONF)Im so quiting next week

Sorrel:..........................

Sprinklemist: Guys. Please, calm down. The chat sections don't need to be edited so often. What if someone types up their story and tries to post it and gets an edit conflict and loses everything they typed (it's happened to me before...)? Also, don't make threats, like, "If you do blah blah you'll get voted out next time". This is not a popularity contest and Sunshine and I make the elimination decisions ultimately...

Tdafan:I might not have mine this week (Sprinklemist: This section is for chatting)

Chimmy: (CONF) I really like tdafan. I'd be okay with whatever decision he makes, but I'd prefer he stays. He's a great author and a great pal to have around. I can't make him stay or go, I knew that from the beginning, but whatever he thinks is the best for him, I'll go with it.

Tdafan:Im really close to quitting

Sprinklemist: Stay in the competition and try your hardest. Think about the people that wanted to compete, but missed the sign ups. Your quitting wouldn't be fair to them.

Tdafan:My decison will be made by the end of week 4

Tdirm2: You know what, I've always wanted to be tagged. I don't know why, but I do.

Tdafan:*sits down and watches TV*

TBTDIF: What is up with everyone lately? All these actions, rudeness, and...actions. Where's Nalyd? Where's Gigi? Where's TDI19? Where's Sprinky and Sunny's awesome stories? Where is everyone from last season? Really, where?

Tdafan:(CONF)I am so sick of these people yelling and other crap.I might quit early

Sunshine: Nalyd passed along hosting to us, I won last season, Sprinklemist was runner up and is just plain awesome enough to host, Gigi decided not to enter this season a while ago, TDI19 just kinda disappeared, and I guess most of the season 1 vets missed signups...

Tdafan:*whisper to NIzzy*Now I wanna vote off TBTDIF

TBTDIF: *tries to act as cool and calm as possible* I...uh...heard you, tdafan. For...um...um...what?

Tdafan:I think you should chill out(CONF)Psycho

TBTDIF: Wow, I thought I was gonna be the main antagonist this season, just like last one.

Tdafan:Yeah yeah yeah

Dominator: I thought with my epic strategy I'd be considered an "antagonist." (Nalyd mentioned how having a strategy will have you pegged for life.) Remember Gophers, '''if we win we all have to agree on which of there players is the best and vote for them. Then, whoever is the other bottom two member will automatically go home. '''(Sorry that's in bold, it's just only one person saw it last time...)

Tdirm2: I don't know what people would consider me as. I'd say an anti-hero. Also, Tdafan, don't quit, it's a honor to be here, Zakkeroen was very ticked off by being unable to join.

Sunshine: Wow, almost half the people whose bios are up so far used names that start with J... weird...

Chimmy: Weird...OMG IT'S A SIGN OF THE APOCALYPSE!!!! RUN TO THE CORN DOG SHELTER!!! (No comment...)

CK11: Corn dogs are bad for your colon...OR ARE THEY??? I reccomend we head to the stuffed elephant emporium. Then we can buy lawn mowers. (I'm COKEMAN11, on other wikis, I'm known as CK11 ffor my nickname)

Chimmy: THER"S NOT MUCH TIME LEFT! GET TO THE STUFFED ELEPHANT EMPORIUM BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE!!!

Shadow the Hedgehog: *Appears* Well, might as well do this. CHAOS...CONTROL!!! *Teleports everyone to the stuffed elephant emporioum, including himself, the hosts, and Duncan, who is still out of the television*

Tdirm2:What just happened?

Sunshine: SHADOW!!!!!!! *tacklehugs*

Shadow:GET OFF OF ME!!! *Chaos Blasts, to no avail*

Chimmy:*Picks up Duncan* Sorry, Dunc. *Throws Duncan at Sunshine*

Sunshine: *grabs Duncan as he's thrown at her, without letting go of Shadow* EEEEEE!!!!!! NOW I HAVE BOTH OF THEM!!!!!!! (LOL, just 'cause I'm a host, doesn't mean I have to act like it... right? RIGHT???)

Chimmy:*Grabs crowbar and tries to pry Sunshine off. The crowbar breaks*

Shadow:THAT"S IT!!! *Uses Chaos Emeralds to transform into Super Shadow* CHAOS...CONTROL!! *Teleports Sunshine into space and flies around at the speed of sound*

Sunshine: *randomly falls back to earth, unharmed, sees Shadow gone, cries uncontrollably, notices Duncan, tacklehugs him* (LOL)

Courtney: STAY AWAY FROM MY MAN, SISTER!!! *tackles Sunshine*

Duncan:I love that woman. (Sorry, Sunshine, he means Courtney.)

Sunshine: Oh yeah, well... *randomly transports to Sonic world, grabs Knuckles, comes back, throws Knuckles at Courtney* (LOL)

Chimmy: *Steps in between slap-fighting Knuckles and Courtney* BREAK IT UP!! *Knocks Knuckles, Sunshine, and Courtney out with powerful blast of fire and is randomly transported to ARK*

Chimmy:*Arrives*

Shadow: Hey, just wanted to say thanks for trying to break me free. *Notices Chimmy looks a bit like Maria Robotnik, smiles*

Chimmy: No prob. I think I could hook you up with a hot chick. *Shows Shadow photo of black hedgehog with red streaks and purple fishnet gloves*

Shadow: *Eyes turn to black hearts*

Sunshine: *flies past window of ARK* SHADOW-AMY FOREVER!!!!! AND IF THAT DOESN'T WORK OUT, ME-SHADOW FOREVER!!!!!!! (LOL, rabid Shadow-Amy supporter)

Shadow:Uhh...how did SHE get here? Anyways, what's the chick's name?

Chimmy:If you mean the Ravioli Pixie, Sunshine. If you mean the hedgehog, Brittney.

Sunshine: *randomly behind Shadow* I got here 'cause I'm magic. That's my answer when you ask how I got in, too. SHADOW!!!!! *tacklehugs*

Tdafan:*standing next to chimmy*So....

Chimmy:Tdafan, don't tell me you're magic too. BUT I AM!!! *Dissapears into flames, comes back with Brittney*

Shadow: Holy hotness!!! *Breaks free from Sunshine using DA POWA OF LOVE!!!* (XD) *Love Story randomly plays*

Brittney:Do you guys hear that? By the way, what's your name?

Shadow:I'm Shadow. Nice to meet you. *Chaos controls Brittney and him to romantic setting*

Chimmy: Awwwwww...(By the way, when I was typing nice to meet you, I accidentaly typed up nice to MEAT you.)

Tdafan:Chimmy,who do you want out next?

Chimmy:It depends. But TBTDIF hasn't exactly been friendly IMO.

Shadow:*is happy for the first time since Maria died because Brittney is now his girlfriend*♥

Shadow:*sigh*I feel like I could take on the world for Brittney...I'm in love.

Chimmy:Just to clarify...is there going to be a Playa des Authors 3???

Shadow:*is daydreaming about Brittney*

Chimmy:I seem to be the only one commenting...I'm bored. *lightbulb goes over head* Got it!!! *Whispers in Shadow's ear* (Wait, where ARE his ears?)

Shadow:...Fine, what the heck. I'm so in love, I could even put up with that Ravioli Pixie! (LOL Sunshine nip) *Teleports, brings back Sonic, Amy, Knuckles, Blaze, and Silver*

Sonic:*Lends Chimmy pair of no-friction shoes*

Cheese the Chao: *Is refferee, waves checkered flag* (LOL)

Everybody:*Starts race* (By the way, the apocalypse is over and we are back on Earth now! Plus, Shadow helped to fix everything up again.Not only that, he also took the time to stop global warming!!! YAY FOR SHADOW!!! Oh, and Duncan is in the race too, Shadow lent him a pair of his shoes. I just realized that Jamie will have to put up with Yu-gi-oh during TD:TM!)

Sunshine: *randomly shows up with a box of donuts* ...I missed something. What did I miss? o.O

Chimmy:*while running* The Sonic people and I decided to have a race. Whoever makes it to Japan first wins! *Grabs donut from box, turns into Hyper Chimmy, runs even faster, leaving trail of fire behind her*

Shadow:*Crosses finish line milliseconds before Hyper Chimmy and Sonic, who is being chased by Amy. Blaze and Silver are holding hands in LA, Rouge stole the Master Emerald and Knuckles had to stop her so he never finished, Duncan is just behind Amy*

Brittney:*kisses Shadow*

Shadow:*Is so overjoyed that he lets Sunshine tacklehug him*

Hyper Chimmy:*turns back into regular Chimmy* Awwwww...Brittney and Shadow make the perfect couple. (Sorry it took so long. We got tired around Arizona and stopped at a Sonic drive-in. But Blaze and Silver ran strait to Pasedana...)

(Conf.) Usitgz: What the heck is going on here, with all these Sonic characters running around. I'm going to lose it!

Knuckles:*punches through confessional, the blow barely missing Usitgz's head* You'll pay for that, you little creep! *Chases Usitgz* (Sorry if that seemed rude or anything, it's totally intended to be humorous.)

Chimmy:*still has Sonic's shoes, runs over and stops Knuckles from hurting Usitgz* STOP IT!!! *Is not strong enough, until Sunshine trips and a donut flies out of her pocket, landing directly in Chimmy's mouth, transforming her into Hyper Chimmy(LOL). Lets out huge blast of fire at Knuckles, knocking him out, transforms back into normal Chimmy* Oh, NO!!! What have I DONE!!! *takes Knuckles to random burn center across the street*

Chimmy:*at burn center* *yawn*. So...tired...need...pancakes...

Random Nurse Dude(LOL):You said you wanted to see him wake up. He just decided to do it at 3:00 in the morning.

Knuckles: *wakes up* Aw, great, what did Chimmy do to me?

Random Nurse Dude:2nd degree burns all over your body, to be exact. She also brought you the this burn center, and pretty much did all the work the docters were supposed to. How did you even know to do that?

Chimmy: Cousin burned his arm on a grill last week. (Not really guys, that never actually happened. Pure fiction.)

Knuckles:*chuckles*(Hey it rhymes!!!) Well, I'll be. I guess...thanks. *shakes Chimmy's hand*

Chimmy:No prob, dude. *Shakes back*

Dominator: GOPHERS!!! We need to vote off Tdafan, TBTDIF, or Turntertang if we win. Tdanfan is thinking of quitting. It wouldn't be fair for them to beat other people, and then quit. TBTDIF has been rude, and is good at writing. Turnertang is their best author

Tdafan:IVE MADE MY DECISION!!!!!!!! And I will tell you...right after this commercial break!!!!!!!

TBTDIF: Don't be like that, Chimchar2350678. I think we're all pretty equal with our writing.

Tdi: Go Gophers!!!!!

Sunshine: *uses random magic portal to send Sonic characters back to wherever they came from, except for Shadow, who she stuffs in a box and mails back to her place (LOL)* Challenge over, guys! Sprinklemist isn't here to judge, so I'll be the only one doing reviews this week.

Dominator: Gophers! Vote for TBTDIF or Tdafan123!!!

Tdafan:IM NOT QUITTING

Dominator: *shrugs* So? We'll vote for you for being a threat then.

NIzzy: Excuse me but that’s a little harsh you can’t just pick on people Dominator!

Dominator: I don't pick on people. Besides, Tdafan and TBTDIF are so good Sunshine won't pick either of them for elimination until later on, if even then. I'm just playing the game to my full ability.

Sunshine: I have to side with Dominator here, he's playing a strati... strati... strati... a smart game. (FAIL XD) He's not doing anything against the rules.

Dominator: Sunshine, when does the vote end?

Sunshine: Later today.

Chimmy: I guess all that cheering helped, Gophers! Let's try to bring it home again next time! Oh, and tdafan, hopefully you won't get voted off, cause even though we are on opposite teams, you're still an amazing friend, and nothing can change that.

TBTDIF: I have to say, the Gophers did a nice job.

Chimmy:Thanks!!! Anyone else crazy enough to be awake past midnight where I am? FWEE!!!

CK11: The Gophers did well.

Chimmy:YAY!!! MORE COMPLIMENTS!!! YAY!!! *hops around clapping* RAINBOW DREAMS!!! Wait, huh?

Tdirm2: Question, when will either CK11 or TBTDIF be eliminated and the next challnge announced?

TBTDIF: Wait, how did Tdafan get a part in this?

Sunshine: I didn't feel like you or CK11 deserved to be eliminated, and Tdafan had a large amount of votes, so I decided I needed to hear from... him... her... is Tdafan a guy or a girl?

Tdafan:Im a guy and Im sorry if i dissapointed people

CK11: Bass, if I'm not eliminated, I have a plan if we win the next challenge...it involves an alliance...

Challenge 2
This week's challenge is to come up with a character profile, for either the character on the left, or the character on the right (both drawn by Sunshineandravioli). This profile needs to include a name for the character, biography of the character's background, a glimpse at their personality, and why they are going to appear on the Total Drama series (either by auditioning, or some other method). We would like to see creativity, originality, and believability. Make it clear which character you'll be using. Don't change anything about the character models. This "story" is due Thursday.

Writing Gophers
Anonymos- Excellent! You went deep into the character’s background and personality, and were able to give us a good reason why she was auditioning. I felt that this was extremely creative and original, and personally, I felt the situation she was in was a believable one. Great job!

Tdi- I like this guy’s basic personality. The idea of an insane tough guy is funny! But… you didn’t really flesh him out after that, or give him any background. Also, in the audition, you completely ignored pretty much all rules of grammar- no quotation marks, forgetting a period in one place, and using script format for his actions. Finally, you named your character Jim, but at the beginning of the audition, he said “Hi, I’m Mike!” Overall, this was a good idea that needed a lot of improvement.

Chimchar- This character was HILARIOUS! Her background was extremely detailed and explained a lot of her personality, which you also described well. Her audition was, in my opinion, one of the best, and her reason for auditioning made a lot of sense. It was also extremely funny. “Uh, Chris? I think the wind blew your door shut.” Classic! Excellent work overall!

Sorrel- This was a very creative idea, and your background for the character was great. It really made her reason for auditioning make sense. However, the character herself didn’t have much personality; it just seemed a kind of general label rather than an in-depth look at her personality. Also, please proofread your stories before posting them. You had some grammar issues throughout, especially in the audition; there were some spelling errors (ie. “transplat” instead of “transplant”); and you used script format for actions. In the end, it was a good idea that would have been even better had you fixed these things.

Dominator- Nice job, and extremely creative idea! His background was fairly detailed, and even though you didn’t have a section describing his personality, it still came across well. Having his grandparents do the audition for him was hilarious. “It says on this pamphlet ‘Crazy Kids Wanted’.” That was great! The trivia section was nice as well, seeming to solidify him as an actual character. Keep it up!

Tdifan- This was a very creative character! Though his personality and background wasn’t extremely in-depth, it still described well and made the character seem real. His audition was funny as well! However, please, don’t use script format, which you used during his audition. Other than that, though, nice work!

Cards777- Pyromaniac! Awesome! This was a very original character. His detailed background explains his personality extremely well, his reason for joining TDI is believable, and his audition was hilarious with his parents begging the producers to accept him! Nice work overall!

Typing Bass
Turnertang- Great idea for a character! The audition was hilarious too. However, you didn’t really go too deep into his personality or background, only really giving us a short glimpse at his character. Also, I notice you seem to have run-on sentences in your writing- what could easily be multiple sentences is clumped into one. Make sure to read over your work before you post; if you have more than one or two “and”s in one sentence, it’s a good sign it’s a run-on sentence and you should split it up into multiple sentences.

Thebiggesttdifan- This was probably the most detailed background of anyone’s character. You gave a truly detailed insight to her past and explained how she ended up applying to TDI. However, her personality wasn’t really described at all, just her past. Also, two things didn’t really make sense to me- one, I didn’t understand the line “Before she knew it, Taña was delivered a tasty meal for breakfast, but that didn’t last long because she had to hop into a taxi for various opera performances.” What did breakfast have to do with it? Two, I don’t understand what her uncle’s motivations were in sending her to the orphanage, or how her mother was involved. Other than those points, this was pretty good, I just wish she had been given more of a personality.

NIzzy- This was a fairly good character, and pretty creative. His personality was unique and described pretty well, and though his background wasn’t extremely detailed, it was just detailed enough. His audition was great as well, perfectly displaying his softer side and the pressure put on him by his dad. However, make sure to double check your grammar before you post. You had some grammar issues, forgot some punctuation, etc. Overall, nice work, except for the grammar issues.

COKEMAN11- This was a good idea, and you hit all the requirements. However… it was extremely skimpy in the details department. Though you described everything, you didn’t get very far into it, and it felt like more than a brief summary of a character rather than a real look at them. In particular, her personality was very brief and didn’t give a really good look at what she was like. I really wish you had given more details, as it would have made the biography a lot better.

Tdiandrockmusic2- This was definitely one of the more original characters. Extremely creative with the MPD, and his background is a great explanation of how it happened. His duel personality, as well, seems to almost create a “two-characters-for-the-price-of-one” thing. His audition tape was a perfect way to end it, showing off both ends of his personality and the vast difference between them. The description of his hair made me LOL. Excellent work!

Oweguy- This was a pretty unique character. Though you didn’t describe his personality that well in the personality section, his audition tape made up for it. I wish there had been a little more on his background, though. The “downfall” section was a nice touch as well, and explained why we didn’t see much of this rocker during TDI. It was a nice touch to have his band playing during the audition tape as well. However, be careful about your tense- you switched between past tense (ie. “What is that racket!” shouted someone.) and present tense (ie. “So I think I should be perfect in this show!” he shouts.) Look out for that in the future.

Tdafan123- This was an okay idea, but you didn’t really give him much of a personality… and, he had no background other than skipping three grades because of his PE grade. I really wish you’d put in more details and fleshed him out more. Also, you still had quite a few spelling and grammar issues. You forgot some commas and periods, spelled “I’m” as “Im”, etc. Please double check these sorts of things before you post.

Usitgz- This was a very unique idea! His background explains his, er, “special” personality. I wish there was a little more to his personality other than thinking monsters are real, though. I love how he got onto TD:TM, though. Also, at one point he said “You’ve got to safe me” when it should have been “You’ve got to save me”. Overall, really good job, almost perfect!

Results
Sunshine: All right, I've thought long and hard, and compared the reviews of both teams, and in the end, the winner is... the Writing Gophers! Congrats! Typing Bass, you're all now up for elimination. Cross your fingers, and hope the voters don't target you. Good luck to you all.

Bass Vote
Who should be in the bottom 2 this week? Turnertang Thebiggesttdifan NIzzy COKEMAN11 Tdiandrockmusic2 Oweguy Tdafan123 Uzitgz

Sunshine: All right, with six votes apiece, the bottom two is... Thebiggesttdifan and COKEMAN11. Both of you, please give reasons to stay at TDA3.

TBTDIF's Reason to Stay
Honestly, I really believe I deserve to stay. I believe I am an extremely good writer, and the only reason I likely didn't make it further in the past two seasons is either because of a misunderstanding in my reason in the original season, and later because of rude comments.

Ah, yes--my rude comments. This, of course, is likely why people have voted me bottom two today. I can say that the reason behind all my rudeness is that I miss the quiet, peaceful loneliness that this wiki used to be. I will try my best to shape up my rudeness. Plus, I believe this is a writing camp. It's not entirely fair to vote someone off--i.e. get rid of their chances of improving their writing skills--just because they are acting rude. This is a contest, not a competition, at least in what I believe.

Okay, I got way off track, didn't I? But in a one line summary: Please let me stay. I'll try my best to stop acting rude.

COKEMAN11's Reason to Stay
I believe that I deserve to stay, not just because I want to; because I had a few conflicts this week. I've been on vacation at the beach, and really busy. I wasn't in the other 2 seasons of TDA3, and I really want to show my writing skills. Also, this is one of the first camps I've been in.I really am a great writer, and I'm just not very good at designing characters. I'm gonna be able to write my story next week, and I can't wait to see what the topic will be. If all of the Bass voted for me, I understand, my character, July, wasn't very well described. I had thought that I had met the requirements. Please let me stay, and in one statement, I think this camp will allow me to improve my characters.

Overall, I know I've said this a lot, but I am a really good writer, and I hope you think of these reasons when you think who truly deserves to go home this week.

Sunshine: This is an extremely hard decision. Both of you show a lot of promise as authors and give good reasons to stay in the game. Eliminating one of you is an extremly difficult and painful thing to do...

...which is why I'm not doing it just yet.

I need to hear from one more person this week before someone leaves. This person now has the most votes in the poll, and at one point was tied with COKEMAN11. I need to hear from... Tdafan123. You've been voted for in the poll, talked about possibly quitting, and (PLEASE no offense) have had some spelling/grammar issues in your stories so far. I need to hear from you- why should you continue on in TDA3?

Tdafan123's Reason to Stay
I think I should stay because I deserve to have some room to improve on my stories,and Im nice to people.Im not quitting so you wont wory and ill try my best next week.Im sorry if I dissapoint you but I only joined to improve and if I get out early,will I improve at all?

I also dont try to get mean but if you annoy me alot then i will get mad.Im sorry to everyone whos feelings I hurt and I hope you will see a reason to keep me in.I know I have spelling and grammar mistakes but let me improve guys please.

Thanks for your time and please save me.

The Decision
(sorry I took so long, guys, I was going to do this last night but I got off the computer)

Sunshine: All right... Sprinklemist and I have discussed this, and we have made our decision. There are three good authors in front of me, but only two of you will continue on.

The author leaving us today is...

...Tdafan123. I'm sorry we have to eliminate you, but in the end it was the best decision. I hope you'll continue to write and improve outside of the camp. Goodbye.

Week 3
Sunshine: Hello to our remaining fourteen competitors! This week's challenge will be like nothing you've ever seen before! (Sprinkle, you can put up the challenge whenever you want.)

Chimmy: *sigh...* It's too bad that tdafan had to be eliminated. But I'm going to get over it, and be ready for the next challenge!

CK11: That was a close one...on an unrelated note, I just had...EDIT CONFLICT!!! Plus, the elimination table needs to be updated.

Sunshine: Yeah... I'll do that... at least it's only a week behind!

NIzzy: *giggles*

Sunshine: Okay, now that the challenge is over... I can reveal the UBER SECRET ORIGINS OF THE TWO CHALLENGE CHARACATERS if you want. XD

NIzzy: Uber secret!!!! XD

CK11" *hypnotizes Sunshine* YOU SHALL REVEAL THE ORIGINS

Usitgz: O_o

TBTDIF: Yeah, Tdafan was almost like a Kenzen. I honestly hope he returns, because despite his somewhat lacking of good grammar and spelling, his ideas were great.

CK11: I ttly agree with that

Dominator: Gophers, if we can win this week, and the next week, I have a great feeling about this season... We just have to all keep voting together.

Sorrel: ok im not here for winning im here to show of meh skills and see other peoples writing GEEZ

TBTDIF: Why so defensive? We're not attacking you, Sorrel.

Tdirm2: When's challenge three happening? Where's Sprinkle too?

Sprinklemist: I got back from vacation, yesterday. *smiles* I think Sunshine is posting the next challenge. I'm not positive when.

Oweguy: Bass, if we win this week like the first week, I'm sure we won't be the underdogs.

Sorrel: because .. we gotta really chillax and this will be my first camp not being random and insane *in head* must go crazy!

NIzzy: If we win we vote for Domitor in the poll right?

CK11: Actually, I say we target Chimmy. (no offense, plz)

Oweguy: I'd say if we win we'll vote off Tdifan.

CK11: Chimmy's a good author, we'll be eliminating a threat.

NIzzy: I agree she's popular too.

Sorrel: *in head* must resist randomness (lawl)

Chimmy: I was afraid this would happen...come on Gophers, let's try even harder now!

Sorrel: why are we even talkin about voting someone off??

Sprinklemist: You guys seem to forget that Sunshine and I make the ultimate decision as to who to eliminate.

Chimmy: I know, but say I was in the bottom 2 with Dominator. I would probably be going home.

Chimmy:Can I do the fashion collumn?

Sorrel; yea you can im doing advice for GOPHERS!!!!

Usitgz:Can I do the Obituary, bass??

NIzzy: Yeah, I'm doing adivice for Bass.

Anonymos: Do any of the Gophers mind if I take the Where are They Now thing?

Tdirm2:Do you mind if I do Where are they nowfor the Bass.

Anonymos: If there are no objections, then I will take Where are They Now for the Gophers.

TBTDIF: May I do the comic strip for the Bass?

Turnertang: What should I do?

Chimmy: This was definintly out of my comfort zone, so I'm asking the Gopher's opinions on my artice. How is it?

Cards: I would like to do the front page for the Gophers, if that is ok with them.

CK11: I'll do Fashion for the bass.

Turnertang: I'll do the entertainment for the bass.

Dominator: Gophers, what jobs are left?

Sunshine: The challenge is over now, guys! Reviews will be up soon.

Chimmy: Uh-oh. If people carry out their threats, Me-sa in trouble. (LOL Jar-Jar Binks)

Cards: I'm sure you'll be safe! Congrats Typing Bass! You did a very good job!

Tdifan: Hey, guys. I'm sorry I wasn't able to post up an article this week. I just started high school and I had a massive amount of homework (that's what I get for being in Honors LOL). I'll try my hardest to get a story up there next week. :-)

TBTDIF: Dominator! Your reason to stay was kind of mean. Remember--this is not a competition. It is a contest. It's not to win adminship, or rollbackness, or become a co-host. In my opinion, the whole idea of this camp is to get your writing skills improved. If you're a worse writer but a better strategist then someone who you eliminated directly, is that entirely fair?

Chimmy: For once, I agree a bit with TBTDIF. If you look on the talk page, even Nalyd is worried about your arrogance. I think you are one of the best authors on the team. Just please don't try to brag about it. Oh, an I completley argree that this camp is for getting your writing skills improved, not to win adminship or any stuff like that.

Challenge 3
This week's challenge is fairly different... This one is all about teamwork. Both teams will be coming up with a cohesive newspaper that has to do with the Total Drama series. I'll list the articles that need to be included. This challenge would work best if either everyone decided who writes what article, or one person delegates, as opposed to everyone just picking what they want to do first. Here are the articles that need to be done:


 * 1) Front Page Story (The main article, most likely about something that happened on one of the latest episodes of Total Drama Action)
 * 2) Obituary (For Mr. Coconut or the Seagull)
 * 3) Entertainment Report (A preview of the next episode of Total Drama Action, it shouldn't contain spoilers)
 * 4) Fashion Analysis (A review of one or more character's clothing)
 * 5) Where Are They Now? (A story about what one of the non-qualifying characters is doing while not on the show)
 * 6) Advice Column (A letter to an advice giver, someone from TDI. The advice must be included. you may do more than one letter)
 * 7) Comic Strip (It must include dialogue. This isn't an art competition, so the pictures aren't required to be perfect, make sure the story in the three panel strip is good. It can be funny, dramatic, or action filled. It can be hand drawn or done with a computer art program)

This is due Friday, unless otherwise stated later on.

Sunshine's Reviews (Writing Gophers)
(Sorry this took so long!)

Anonymos- Hilarious! This seemed very Sadie. I could easily see her doing everything you mentioned in the article. The part about Sadie calling white lipstick “in”, but not wearing it herself, was funny. I also loved the preview for next week’s article. Possibly convicted felon! I was LOL-ing at that! Great job!

Tdi- Pretty nice job. I liked how you mentioned Owen being Mr. Coconut’s friend in the article. However, I think you spelled Muskoka wrong, and I wish you’d gone into a little more detail. Still, nice work.

ChimChar- Awesome! I loved this, and not just because it was about Duncan and I got mentioned. You went into a lot of detail without going too far, and was able to wrap everything up nicely in the end. Also, good job putting next week’s preview at the end, that made it seem like a real article. Overall, amazing, great job!

Sorrel- …so where’s the article?

Dominator- Hahahaha!!!! This was incredibly funny! “I didn’t think a spine could bend like that, eh.” LOL! Also, I know this isn’t an art contest, but it kind of bugged me that you pasted together episode pictures to make the comic. I would have liked it if you’d drawn it yourself. Even so, hilarious, great job!

Tdifan- Nothing? The girl who made final two first season and final five last season gives us NOTHING?

Cards777- Was this an entertainment report or front-page story? I had trouble figuring that out, but either way, this was really good. You described the episode in detail but still didn’t go overboard and mention every little thing that happened. There were some very minor grammar problems, but they weren’t that bad and really weren’t noticeable. Also, 1) Beth used perfume to lure Owen out of the safe, not an elixir (I know that’s not really important, but I just felt like pointing it out…) and 2) the way you said the Grips threw their Gilded Chris Awards at Owen kind of made it sound like they did it because they were mad at him; I think if you’d worded that differently, it wouldn’t have sounded like that. Other than those tiny problems, great job!

Sprinklemist's Reviews (Typing Bass)
tdiandrockmusic2 - Very entertaining, and very realistic from the standpoint of a newspaper article. This story was great, except for some issues with commas being inserted where the sentence should have ended. I also liked the random Cyndi Lauper reference. You were able to combine TDI and rock music... Hmmm.

Turnertang - This article was good, although there are some inaccuracies with the actual episode. I like the last second best, as you did not reveal more than you should have. The surprise (the one I'm thinking of) comes during the challenge, and the elimination is decided by the team, so that line confused me. Also, one of the requirements of this challenge was that it be cohesive. You gave a preview of the same episode that Owenguy wrote a detailed article on. One of you should have seen the other's article, and done something different.

Thebiggesttdifan - I saw the picture as I saw that you uploaded it without being able to post it on this page. I'll count it. The pictures were fairly confusing without the words. I think the story you were going for would have been better if you placed a random head (even the back of one) in the first panel to show that someone else was speaking to Izzy. Overall, I liked the comic strip, a lot. It was a nice idea.

NIzzy - Good solid advice. The grammar and spelling were fantastic. I think the only problem I noticed was the "gotten" line. I'm thinking it should have been "got". Other than that, the article was great.

Cokeman11 - Great job this week. It's a very good review. The introductory paragraph is the only one where I see problems. The very first part of the sentence should be paired with "who has", not "has". Scottish should be capitalized, also. Overall, though, I loved the review. You went into good detail, and matched her clothing to her personality. Great job.

Owenguy - This article was extremely well written. The grammar was really good, and the information accurate. Two problems. One being a comma should have been inserted before "yet again" and "un wired" should be one word. The other problem is that this article is not cohesive with Turnertang's article. You both recapped and previewed the same episode. One of you should have seen the other article and done a different episode.

Usitgz - This article was nice, and funny, as well. I like the fact that you were creative by choosing Bunny instead of Mr. Coconut or the seagull. All the parts of a normal obituary are in here, aside from the unnecessary location of the funeral. The only problem I see is that you said "aten" when you meant "eaten". So, other than that, everything was very well done. Good job.

Results
Sunshine: Sprinkle and I have decided. The winner of this week's challenge is... THE TYPING BASS! Congrats, guys. Gophers... all of you are now at risk. One of you will be going home. Good luck.

Gophers Vote
Who should be in the bottom two this week? Anonymos Tdi Chimchar Sorrel Dominator Tdifan Cards777

Sunshine: With five votes apiece, our bottom two this week is... Tdifan and Dominator. Alright guys, why should you stay?

Dominator's Reason to Stay
I should stay in Total Drama Author 3 because I'm going to win. There are a whole bunch of people who deserve to go way before I do. I'm only up here because I'm a threat to them, I don't know... They think I'm some terrible person for taking charge. Well isn't that what the winner needs to do? The winner gets adminship, and you want somebody who can be a leader; I'm that person! I know I probably sound like an arrogant jerk, but I'm usually just a little on the "full of myself" side. That isn't me all the time. My writing is great and I think that if I am up here for weakness, it's because I can't draw to save my life. I misunderstood the comic directions, and didn't make my own pic; I used real pics from the show. I don't think that's enough to have me eliminated. My writing is already great and I can write circles around most of these other guys. I do my work. I try every week. And I know that I'm going to win this thing. I've got the skill to do it, and I don't think it's fair to eliminate me for being a threat.

The Decision
Sunshine: Sprinkle and I have talked... and the decision has been made. The person leaving TDA3 today is...

...Tdifan. It stinks to see such a great author go third, but in the end, missing your story not once but TWICE is what caused your downfall.

But... I would be careful if I were you, Dominator. Even if you do have skill and a good strategy, bragging about it might turn people against you... you have been warned. Goodbye, Tdifan. The rest of you are safe... for now.

Week 4
Sunshine: With that, we're down to 13 authors. You guys feel confident? Also, I realize now I closed the challenge on Thursday when it was due Friday... sorry, guys... ^^;

Anonymos: I usually feel confident.

Anonymos: (CONF) I think that after realizing that 3rd place of last season is not anything bad. I think that that gave me a large confidence boost. I feel more confident in my abilities and I am totally ready for the rest of this season!

Tdirm2: (CONF) I'm really sad to see Tdifan go. I don't care if she didn't turn in her stories twice, she was a veteran from season one. Dominator sounded pretty snobby giving his argument. It's not very polite to say you'll write circles around everybody else. I hope he won't be mad at me. I can't make enemies, especially when the merge hits.

TBTDIF: (CONF) What's with the new phase of roleplay and all? No strategy is needed in the game--this is a contest, not a competition. Dominator's just a bit of a jerk. I hope he gets over it.

Chimmy: (CONF) I'm a bit worried about Dominator. I mean, come on, he's my teamate, and one of our best authors! Though I'm sure you'll achieve your goal, you better watch out for some so-called arrogance. I want to stand up for him so much, but I'm going to need some very good reasons to.

(CONF) Dominator: Okay... Nobody really has a high opinion of me at this point but hey, you do what you gotta do if you end up on that chopping block.

Dominator: Eh, Gophers. I'm sorry about some of the things I said when I was up for elimination. If you guys want to put me up there again, I understand. But, look, if I'm up there against somebody who deserves to go before me, I will fight for it and I won't let them beat me.

Oweguy: Okay Bass. We're winning two challenge wins to one so keep it up.

Chimmy: Gophers, just because we're outnumbered by Bass doesn't mean that we can't win! We need to fight for our right to be here, fight for our honor, dignity, and for our team! If we all give it our all, I'm sure one of us will be the top author! Show no mercy! Now, who's with me! (LOL, Admiral Chimmy, her Gopherness.)

(CONF) Oweguy: Admiral Chimmy? What's next?

Dominator: Okay, Chimmy...

(CONF) Dominator: Okay, I'm sort of bummed out since I got put up for elimination. But, hey, as long as I keep doing my stories, doing my work, and doing it well, I will win!

Dominator: Let's make sure a Gopher wins. And let's make sure we win this week so the Bass don't get the satisfaction of winning two in a row.

Chimmy: Great! Now, who wants to be my second in command? (LOL, JK.)

Chimmy: Ooh, sorta tough challenge, but I don't have any fanfic characters of my own! XP

Dominator: Same here. But my buddy Nalyd has some of the best characters ever! This will be a piece of cake...

NIzzy: Don't be so cocky... *smiles*

Chimmy: Just so you know, I chose Kendall because he's my favorite. Don't think I'm buttering up Sprink or anything.

NIzzy: Nice strategy! XD JK

Cards: Go GOPHERS! Go GOPHERS! Go GOPHERS!

TBTDIF: Can you do a crossover between two fanfictions?

Chimmy: YAH! GO GOPHERS! *Numa Numa dances* (LOL, When I watch the Sonic Numa Numa dance video, I get up and dance! I am a strange one...

Tdirm2:Hey Sunshine, in case you're wondering, Andrea screwing up names means that she barely has a grip onwhat's going on in the real world. I know she desribes what Han and Izzy do in detail, but how can you ignore them.

TBTDIF: This is completely irrelevant, but I think one of our challenges should be a remembrance of Ricky490 in some way. How I miss Total Drama Daredevil...

Chimmy: LOL, it seems that since I posted my story, everyone is doing something with Total Drama: Boney Island. Yay, I'm a trendsetter! *walks down a random runway in sky blue dress*

CK11: Actually, I was gonna do a TDBI story all along.

(CONF) CK11: I think my story's a little small...but it's good.

Tdirm2:TBTDIF, your story is GREAT! You should post it on the fanfic wiki, it makes mine look horrible.

Chimmy:*stops walking down runway* YAY WEIRD COINCIDENCES! EEEEEEEEEEEE! *jumps up and down, realizes she's still wearing her dress and that her undies are showing*Uh...yay? (XD)

TBTDIF: Haha, at least I didn't go with the crowd...wait a second--I got complimented? I got comp-I got complimented! YAY! Thanks, Tdirm2...and by the way, you can't use TDI characters in your story. That's all.

Tdirm2: Hehe, whoops (Conf) Stupid! *facepalm* If the Bass lose, I'm doomed.

Sprinklemist: Sunshine is reviewing your story this week (I think) so it's up to her whether your penalized, or not, but since her story has the TDI characters, I wouldn't be too worried...

TBTDIF: If the Bass lose, I'll talk us into keeping you. You're a good writer, and one little slip doesn't mean anything.

Sunshine: Sprinkle and I will have the reviews up shortly!

Chimmy:Yay! The Gophers are back on track! Let's give even more of an effort next time!!!

Challenge 4
All right, this week's challenge is a classic from season 1 of Total Drama Author! You'll be writing a story with fanfic characters! BUT! ...you cannot use any of your own characters (or TDI characters, to clarify). You must use characters from someone else's story. You'll be judged on the usual stuff (spelling, grammar, if the story was good in general, etc.), plus if you used the characters well. Sprinkle and I may ask the original authors their opinions on it if necessary. This will be due Friday, unless by some great stroke of luck you all finish on Thursday. (And I won't accidentally close it early this time! XD) Good luck!

Sprinklemist's Reviews (Writing Gophers)
Anonymos - I loved this story, and I approve of how you used my characters. Good job. I loved Lisa and Dirk in this story, especially when Dirk ran into her fist. Lol. You even included a cameo by Stu, from Turnertang's story, for hilarious results. I kind of wish that you left him out so that no one would be confused, but his role as a teacher made it so that anyone unfamiliar with him wouldn't realize it was a cameo.

Tdi - No story. No review.

Chimchar - Really, really, well done. I loved this story. You hinted at future relationships and the underlying reason that Kendall disliked Stevie (and plausibly, Dirk). I also liked the way that you tied his disdain for Fiona with not wanting to be reminded of his mother. It's such a good analysis, that I honestly never thought of. Great, great job.

Sorrel - No story...

Dominator - I really enjoyed this story. I loved the way that you portrayed Ivan. It was funny and I really liked the giant panda link. Lol. My only problem was that you had three different characters from three different realms in the story with no inclusion of any characters from the same story. It made sense with the story, but it might be confusing to people who aren't familiar with all three characters (hence the links, I'm sure).

Cards777 - This story was really sweet. I liked it. My only concern was that you left a few words out, a few commas, and there were a few grammar problems.

Sunshine's Reviews (Typing Bass)
Turnertang- Nice job! The characters’ personalities seemed to be written well. Jakey was hilarious with his nerdiness, and I feel so bad for poor Stan, stuck with him! Your only problem was some minor grammar issues. Good job!

TBTDIF- Personally, I really liked this one. Was having Pauline and Ajax together a reference to Total Fanfiction Crossover? The first time I read this through, I didn’t realize AJ was Ajax, and honestly believed he was just a klutzy Subway worker. So, I was really surprised when he revealed himself! The ending was touching as well. Your spelling and grammar was great, as usual. The characters were written well. And, of course, the story was great. Excellent job!

NIzzy- No story, no review.

COKEMAN11- This was hilarious! “I LIKE YOU TOO, STEVIE!” LOL! I think, personally, that the characters were written pretty well, though I thought Blair would talk more. Is it just me, or does Kendall always seem to fall for the annoying chicks? First Fiona, now Blair… I loved how you switched between both Waterlily and Kendall to give us both their perspectives on the events. Great job!

Tdiandrockmusic2- I loved this!!! Because the “Ex” series used TDI characters, I won’t penalize you for it this time. The characters were amazingly written, especially Andrea. In fact, I sent a link to the story to the person I based Andrea on, and she agreed it sounded just like her! Especially the part about loving sanity, LOL. There weren’t any spelling or grammar problems I noticed, either. Great job!!!

Oweguy- No story, no review.

Usitgz- This seemed to be in Ed’s personality, and Lacey’s, but it was incredibly short. There were also some minor grammar issues. Overall, I wish you had made this longer. If you had gone into a bit more detail, I’m sure this would have been superb.

Results
Sunshine: Okay... the winner of this week's challenge, as decided by Sprinklemist and myself, is... '''THE WRITING GOPHERS!!! '''Congrats, guys! Bass... we have a surprise twist for you. NIzzy and Oweguy did not write stories this week. In order to get the challenge schedule back on track, we're going to have you two be the bottom two. Now, why should you stay?

NIzzy's Reason to Stay
Well I was going to do the challenge but I got pulled of my P.C because my mom was in hospital... anyway enough of that. I’ve enjoyed this camp and it’s been my first writing camp ever, I’ve had my up’s and down’s, I know I’m not the best and I have my weaknesses however if I’m going to be honest I truly think Owenguy101 should stay... I think he deserves Adiminship way more than me. Go Oweguy! So I'm dropping out... (If thats even allowed when you're in the bottom two either way I'm leaving.)

Oweguy's Reason to Stay
Well I did start the story the day before the challenge ended. I just forgot to finished it on time. The reason I forgot to write it was because I was busy with school and I needed to relax. I enjoy the Total Drama Author camps and I hope I'll do well at this. Like NIzzy said, I should deserve Adminship and I should try my best to win. If NIzzy leaves the competition, I'd would say she'd did a good job in the competition. Anyway. I think I should desearve to stay. If I stay, I hope to get my story up on time. Sorry I forgot too.

The Decision
Sunshine: ...well, NIzzy dropped out... so, no further elimination. Bye, NIzzy. You will be missed.

Week 5
Sunshine: Congrats, guys! You've survived four challenges and eliminations! How are ya feeling?

Chimmy: I'm feeling amazing! This is way farther than I thought I'd get. I'd like to thank everyone on my team, cause' I owe you for still being here! And Sunshine and Sprinkle and...*sniffles* THANK YOU!!! *bawls* (XD By the way, I GTG)

Tdirm2: I'm still here, I'm doing better than I thought. *plays Billy Idol and sings along horribly*

''Dancing with myself oh-oh-oh, Dancing with myself. ''

When there's nothing to prove and there's nothing to lose oh-oh Dancing with myself oh-oh-Oh

* Breaks windows and Sunshine's abnormally large glasses* Oops

TBTDIF: Eh, I guess I'm happy. I mean, I don't really find anything special about being in the final...final...finals. (Uh...epik fale? Ummm...Ex...deeh?)

Dominator: I'm not sure how big an accomplishment is for five weeks...

(CONF) Dominator: Ooh... I survived four eliminations! What a shocker!... I guess for some people that's a big thing, but I'm not even half way of my goal of final five. Well, I guess my real goal is winning. But if I make it to final five I'll get an account.

Dominator: Way to go, Gophers! If we keep this up, the six of us will be the final six.

(CONF) Dominator: I think I might be low man on the totem pole on my team... I know it's not because of my writing, they just don't like me as a person...

(CONF) CK11: I survived four eliminations! This is way farther than I thought I would go! ... ... Do you think I could actually take this thing to the final FIVE?

(CONF) TBTDIF: Have I ever made it at least three quarters through in this epic trilogy? No. What makes me think I can? Nothing. Honestly, what's with the hype about the final five?

Tdirm:(CONF) If the Gophers lose, Dom could be in big trouble. He still seems somewhat snobby, which is sad, because I think he's a good writer, and seemed polite for the first challenge.

Tdirm: Can't wait for challenge five, wonder what it is.

Sorrel: *notices its week5* WHOA im sooo glad i stayed even though i....... NEVER MInd

Chimmy:I'm loving my story so far, I think it ging to be the most passionate one I've ever written.

Sunshine: Everyone's dying this week... o.O

Chimmy:OMG IT'S ANOTHER APOCOLYPSE!!!! *runs in random circles* (By the way, TDIRM, DUncan's body never able to be found made me cry, and I never cry.)

Sunshine: I was very, very close to crying reading both of your stories... I'm pathetic... XD

Chimmy: I think that if my mom read my story, our house would be flooded within half an hour. (XD)

Tdirm:Chimmy, if that made you cry, read Violet Hill. It's a one-shot I made on the fanfic wiki that made Sunshine, Sprinkle, and Fadingsliverstar16 cry. Wait, it's not Fadingsilverstar16, it's Gigi. I miss you Gigi! That didn't come out right! (She's a girl, I'm a guy)

Sunshine: Yeah... then I read it again the other day, and I almost cried again. XD

TBTDIF: My story is rather abstract in terms of the couple thing, but I think it'll be okay.

(CONF) Dominator: I see all the others hanging out with Sunshine, so I figure since I'm going to be an admin someday, and thus equally powerful as her, I should try to be her friend... And, you know, who is she gonna pick to win? Silent me, or one of her friends?

Dominator: I think I'm gonna do a pairing me and Nalyd love... BridgettexHarold! XD

Chimmy: Yeah, I read Violet Hill today, I cried again...OMG I'M TURNING INTO MY MOM!!!! (XD) (OK&lt; now I really GTG)

Sprinklemist: Tdirm, I totally didn't cry! I only cry at things that aren't supposed to make you cry, for some reason... Man, I wish this challenge existed last season... That's why I did the Lindsay-Noah story on our free week.

Chimmy:Gophers! We only have 2 more days left to do this, so if you cna, please post up a story! We do NOT want to lose again!

Usitgz: C'mon Bass we can do it!

CK11: There's a reference to TBTDIF in my story

Chimmy:Ah, well, ya win some, you lose some. Let's hope luck is on our side next time, Gophers, and put out some awesome stories!

CK11: w00t Bas win *does a dance*

(CONF) CK11: Dominator's going down.

Chimmy:I hope Dom doesn't get eliminated. He's a great writer and teamate. It's weird, this pattern...one week they win, another, we win, and so on...0__o

Nalyd: *flies in from an airplane* I need to talk to Sprinklemist or Sunshine! This is urgent! Code author! (Either of you on here? I need to talk to one of you in this camp.)

Sprinklemist: I'm here.

Nalyd: Okay. *pulls Sprinklemist and Sunshine (when she gets on) away from the contestants* I'm afraid that due to some medical issues in real life that boy *points to Dominaton* has to withdraw from the contest. I talked to him, this is what he wants to do. I guess I can give you all a minute to say good-bye...

Sunshine: *gasps* Oh no!!! Poor Dom!!! *whispers to Sprinklemist* Does this remind you of someone or is it just me? (Sorry I haven't been on...)

Usitgz: *eaves drops* Bye Dominator, you were a great competitor!

Challenge 5
This week will be another classic challenge from TDA season 1... you will be writing a story with a non-canon TDI couple! For example, Cody-Lindsay or Courtney-Trent. You can check the Total Drama Wiki for canon couples and some non-canon couples. You'll be judged on the usual spelling and grammar stuff, plus if you made the couple seem believable and how good the story was in general. Good luck guys!

Sunshine's Reviews (Writing Gophers)
Anonymos- I liked this one! Heather-Duncan seems pretty believable. They both seemed to have their personalities, all sarcastic and mean and stuff. I love how, somehow, the title ended up making sense. Excellent!

Tdi- No story, no review.

Chimchar- Ahh, DJ-Katie… brings back memories… This was great! DJ and Katie seem to be a good match. Sadie’s horrible death was so emotional (I’m close to crying as I review this…) And it makes sense that it took the loss of her to get Katie to become her own person and pursue DJ. Overall, amazing! Excellent job!

Sorrie- No story, no review.

Dominator- No story, no review.

Cards777- No story, no- ahh, you get it by now…

Sprinklemist's Reviews (Typing Bass)
tdiandrockmusic2 - O_O It's a good thing that Sunshine didn't have to review this story, she would have cried for sure. I was too tired to cry, however. You write tragedy so extremely well. I also loved Heather in this story, as well. I didn't notice any spelling or grammar mistakes, so good job there. The pairing was interesting and believable as Noah and Courtney have semi-similar interests. Overall, you did fantastic.

Turnertang - No story.

Thebiggesttdifan - The writing was really good here, and the pairing was a good one. I didn't notice any spelling or grammar mistakes, so great job. The only thing I saw as slightly negative was the fact that I got confused twice. In the beginning I thought the story was from Ezekiel's perspective as you said "eh?", and then the next paragraph said "I was the only girl there", so after being confused, I thought you were switching between Ezekiel and Bridgette's perspective, until I read the other paragraphs. Then I was confused by the ending. I have no clue why Ezekiel was talking that way, or why he was in a garage. It could have used more explanation.

Cokeman11 - This story was very sweet. I liked it. I loved the little bit of humor, namely the nine penguins suing Trent's Dad. O_O Anyway, Gwen and Noah are also a good pairing, as they are both sarcastic and a little whiny. I just didn't understand the "It's not my fault he was voted out third!" line. It sounds to me like Gwen's mom remembered Noah better than she claimed. Plus, that line should have a comma in there, I think. But that sentence was the only flaw I noticed, so good job.

Oweguy - Your story was okay. It was riddled with flaws. "Gwen is just feeling sad about not being with Gwen and shouldn’t have broken up with him." is one example... The punctuation was very poor, unfortunately. You should have wrote "Okay, yes." instead of "Okay yes.", "Hi, Gwen." instead of "Hi Gwen.", for example. Another flaw is when you write a sentence in quotation marks, it needs to look like this: "I hear you," said Trent. You didn't put the comma at the end of a quoted sentence, before the 'said whoever' part. Also the ice cream line was a question, and you put a period at the end of it. What I loved about the story most, though, was the part where Owen asked out Eva. Best. Couple. Evah!

Usitgz - This story had some funny moments, but there were a lot of spelling mistakes. You used "were" instead of "where" a few times, "sterted", and "penut". Also, "alot" isn't a word. The story was good overall, though.

Results
Sunshine: I think it's obvious that this week's winner is... THE TYPING BASS!!! Congrats, guys!!! Gophers... another week on the chopping block... good luck, guys.

Gophers Vote
Who should be in the bottom 2 this week? Anonymos Tdi Chimchar Sorrie Dominator Cards777

Cards777's Reason to Stay
I think I should stay because I am a good author. I have worked hard on all of my stories. I am sorry that I could not get my story in this week, I thought the story was dur on Friday, but if I stay in the game I promise I will get my story in next week. I had a story that was almost half-way finished. I joined Total Drama Author 3 because I wanted to improve my writing skills. I hope I can stay in the competition.

The Decision
Well, due to unfortunate circumstances, Dominator is dropping out of the competition. I'd like to thank him for giving it a try. He's a good writer and a great strategist. I hope that he gets better, and that he joins next season.

Week 6
Sunshine: With that, it's down to only eleven authors. You guys ready for the next challenge?

Chimmy:Wow, Dom...I never thought he'd be the one to go. It's definetly gonna be harder to win, Gophers, but we have to try! Let's try our best at the next challenge!

TBTDIF: Dominator has m-m-medical issues? Does this mean...no, of course he wouldn't die...would he?

Chimmy:OMG, I just realized that when you said that...I'm such a Lindsay. If it is medical issues, I really hope it's not terminal, or something like cancer. I don't know how I'd take that news, but it wouldn't be pretty...

TBTDIF: You're nothing like a Lindsay. I really hope that Dominator doesn't die...and if he does, Nalyd might quit the wiki. Say, what would happen if anyone like Nalyd or Sunshine or Sprinkle or Gigi died? (Okay, shut up, I don't want to cause a tragedy...-TBTDIF's conscience)

Chimmy:Thanks. Anyways, what do you think the challenge will be like?

TBTDIF: Maybe we'll get to write a song explaining some of the details in TDI! *fetches pen and computer*

Chimmy:If that was true, I'd probably get eliminated. I stink at writing songs. I sort of hope it's the parody challenge...

Sunshine: Sprinkle's doing the challenge this week, and personally, I think it's going to result in some awesome stories!

Chimmy:OK. I WILL NOT REST UNTIL I KNOW DOM'S OK!!! *passes out onto the floor, snores* (XD EPIC FAIL!)

Sprinklemist: It didn't sound fatally serious... Only Nalyd can tell us... Anyway should I post the challenge early (tonight)?

Chimmy:I don't care much, as long as I get to write some PWNAGE stories with my team! Gophers, assemble! *tumbleweed rolls by* Aw, COME ON!!! (XD)

Nalyd: *after reading all the comments* Don't worry guys. Dominator, that old son of a gun, is going to live. And he hopes y'all know that if Sunshine opens a Playa Des Authors challenge for somebody to return, you better watch out. *leaves on plane, several Nalyd fans cry that they didn't get to talk to him*

Chimmy:Thank GOODNESS!!!! Dom, if your reading this, I just want you to know that I think you should be here. By the way, when is someone gonna create Playa des Authors 3?

Usitgz: I know this is random, but GO BASS!!!!

Chimmy:...Okay???

Usitgz: Just wanted to lighten the mood!

Tdirm2:Aw man, poor Dom. I wouldn't have called him snobby if he had these medical issues.

Chimmy:I'm pretty sure everybody's feeling bad for him right now.

Tdirm: Yeah, I agree. On a completly different note, am I the only one on this wiki who does not know what Sonic is?

Chimmy:For that, I'd have to survey everybody on the wiki...but I'm guessing yes. Want me to tell you? Of course, you could go to this page, but what fun would that be?

TBTDIF: I consider Nintendo to be better than Sega (characters too). I mean, look! Nintendo's got a system with a motion-control device, and all Sega's got is this skimpy little television named after themselves.

Chimmy:Well, I respect your opinion, but I personally think that the two are just about equal. I mean, Mario is more popular than Sonic in the US, but Sonic is more popular than Mario in the UK. While Mario is very popular, I believe Sonic is equally popular. Again, I respect your opinion, but I have to disagree with it.

Sunshine: Personally, I perfer Sonic to Mario. Yes, this is majorly because the Sonic series has Shadow... but still! I did like Super Mario Sunshine, though. (And I seem to be alone in this opinion, based on reviews it got... XD)

Tdirm2: I'm working on my story right now. It's dark and serious. Again. Why do I write like an emo?

TBTDIF: I'm not sure what to write my story about...Chim, the beginning of your story is hilarious!

Chimmy:Thanks. At first, I wasn't sure who would be the detective. Then I realized that Owen's appetite would be a large source of humor, so that's why. At the end of the story I have planned...well, I doubt anyone would expect it.

TBTDIF: Aha! I've got it! I'll make a prequel to my murder mystery back in Season 2!

CK11: *thinks* *thinks more* *thinks a lot* Ezekiel missing! Detective Bridgette! Suspects Noah, Gwen, Eva, Duncan! *realizes everyone is mourning the elimination of Dominator* ...Oh, and long live Dominator.

Sunshine: From what I've seen of the stories so far, this week is gonna be EPIC.

Chimmy:I think mine is pretty good, but that'll be up to Sun and Sprink to decide. (GTG do homework)

CK11: Mine'll be up by Wednesday.

Chimmy:So...bored...

Sprinklemist: *throws some flaming batons to Chimmy for her to juggle*

Chimmy:Wait-what? *is hit in face by baton* IT BURNS US!! IT BURNS US!!! *flails around randomly* (XD)

Tdirm2: I finished my story, it's horrible. At least I turned one in though.

TBTDIF: My story is so hard to write because every mention of Duncan's mom in it makes me wanna cry...

Chimmy:Wow, Nonny, your story totally PWNS mine...at the off chance that we are the final 2, (Which i seriously doubt I'll be there) I think I know who's hosting TDA4.

Anonymos: Thanks!

Chimmy:No prob. Now, where was I...oh yeah! *stares at picture of Shadow* (XD)

TBTDIF: Finally, FINALLY my story is done. Please have reviews be tomorrow...please, please!

Tdiandrockmusic2's Story
This isn't my favorite story, but I hope you enjoy. Any places I mention do exist, I set the story in an area I used to live in.

The Simplest Revenge

Trent Donovan stepped out of his car on a beautiful summer afternoon, the kind that made it worth it to survive the winters here in Newport, Rhode Island. Not that it mattered to him after the events that happened today. First, he was fired despite showing up for four years straight, and had lashed out at his boss, the impossible to impress Courtney Marris, leading to an intense argument. Then Harold McGrady came to him and commanded him to give him money over “a bet” made two years ago. Said bet was a usual excuse for Harold when he had to get lunch and forgot his wallet. Harold then went on a huge rant in public on how “People never listen to bets I place, and that I should do something to show people that I deserve respect.” Then at his own lunch, Heather Reid, his recent ex, ran into him while he and his current girlfriend, Gwen Gilcrest were finished ordering. Heather said that he and Gwen had gone out before he broke up with her and threatened to kill him for it in an angry tone. Gwen believed it, punched Trent between the eyes, and stormed off. After that, having nothing better to do, Trent drove home in silent, teeth-gritting frustration. He unlocked the front door of his house, stomped in, and flopped down on his couch, where he was found dead six hours later. Detective Noah Barnes was busy reading when he got the call. Fifteen minutes later, he and his partner, Duncan Davidson had arrived at the Donovan residence and were tearing the house apart for clues

“Hey Noah, do we have any suspects yet?” Duncan yelled from the bedroom.

“No, can’t find any fingerprints or bodily fluids other Mr. Donovan’s blood. This person did a good job of covering their tracks,” Noah replied while sprinkling powder everywhere in an attempt to find fingerprints.

“What was the cause of death again?”

“Do you remember anything Duncan? He was shot in the spinal cord, died instantly,” Noah said. A black shape suddenly caught his eye. “Found his cell phone!”

Duncan bolted out of Trent’s bedroom.

“Any messages Noah?” Duncan asked.

”I’m checking right now. Here’s one.”

Gwen’s voice came out of the speaker.

“Hey Trent, its Gwen. I wanted to say sorry for punching you at lunch earlier. I shouldn’t have believed Heather. You know what she’s like now. Anyways, there might be a job opening at my workplace in Fall River. Hope to see you soon.”

“Well,” started Noah, “At least we know where to start. Caller I.D. says G. Gilcrest so we can find where she lives.”

About forty-five minutes later, Gwen received a knock on her door. She opened it to find Noah and Duncan. Noah took no time for greetings.

“Miss Gilcrest, are you aware of your boyfriend’s death?”

“My boyfriend’s WHAT! How could die, he was only frustrated, not suicidal!”

“We’re talking murder gorgeous.” Duncan responded coolly.

“Shut it Duncan. We heard a message sent to Trent’s phone. We want to know why you punched him, who Heather is, and what you were doing between noon and 6 P.M.”

The three then took seats at Gwen’s kitchen table. Duncan recited questions.

“Who’s Heather?”

“Heather Reid is Trent’s crazy ex. Well, she was normal until they broke up. At The Brick Alley Restaurant, she walked over and claimed he had been cheating on her with me. I don’t know why I believed her, but I did. After that, I left.”

“Where does Miss. Reid live?”

“I don’t know, somewhere in Jamestown I think.”

“I’ll go check her address.” Noah said.

As soon as he left, Duncan scooted his chair closer to Gwen.

“So, do you miss Trent a lot Gwen?”

“Actually, we weren’t around each other a lot, so I feel like I should, but I really don’t. We worked different shifts and Trent was always working overtime because of his boss. She’s a nightmare to work for, so I’ve heard. They got into huge fight and Trent said she looked totally homicidal.”

“What’s her name?”

“Courtney Marris.”

Duncan’s face contorted into a look of pain.

“Are you alright?”

“She’s my ex-girlfriend.”

“Ooh, I seriously pity you.”

“I’m completely over her; it’s just that I don’t want to interrogate her.”

“You know, you’re not all that bad. For a police officer.” Gwen said with a smirk.

“And you aren’t either. You wanna get coffee when this investigation’s over?” Duncan said in the same fashion

“Ummm…okay, I have to forget Trent I guess.” Gwen replied hesitantly.

Then Noah walked back in the room.

“Okay,” he said, “I have Heather’s address. We have to go Duncan.”

In the car, Noah confronted Duncan.

“What was that!?”

“What was what?”

“You know what I mean. We don’t flirt with suspects, let alone ask them out for coffee. Remember what happened with that pixie we locked up for stalking?”

“You mean Sunshine? How could I forget?” (A.N. I’m sorry Sunshine, I just had to have you stalk Duncan)

“Well this could be that all over again.”

“Fine. Let’s go to Heather’s.”

Heather’s condo was a short drive away, and when they arrived, she was not very receptive.

“What do you mean you have to interrogate me?” she had screamed. “He’s some two-timing flirt who deserves to die!”

“Trent was murdered; we have to interrogate you because you were one of the last people to see him alive.” Duncan had reasoned.

“Well no cops are keeping me from the spa! Goodbye!”

Heather got in her convertible and sped off.

“Well, nothing from her.” Duncan said.

“No, I planted a microphone in her backseat while you were arguing. Who knows what she’ll say to herself.” Noah replied.

“While she’s headed for Canada.”

“Good point, if she’s the murderer. Now we have to interview Harold McGrady and Courtney Marris. Why does that last one ring a bell?”

“She’s my ex. Please don’t make me interview her.”

“Fine, we’ll interview them tomorrow.”

That next day, Noah and Duncan left the station. As their car headed for Trent’s former employer in Warwick, the two listened to the mike in Heather’s car. All it recorded was Heather mauling “Our Lips Are Sealed”.

Courtney sat down in her company’s boardroom. She seemed somewhat annoyed by Noah’s presence.

“Ummm, excuse me Detective, but I have no clue why you’re here. I wouldn’t kill somebody just because we had an argument. How would I get promoted that way?”

“Everybody says you’re temperamental.”

“Why did you listen to them? The problem these days is that everybody hates everyone who has a higher standing than them…”

After the interview ended, Noah met back up with Duncan, and the two shared their results over lunch at a deli.

“Courtney seems suspicious. She avoided the subject of Trent’s murder and went on a huge rant about her employees. I see why you dumped her.” Noah started.

“Harold avoided me too. He just said ‘I’m glad Trent died. He was so arrogant, GOSH!!!’ He was arrogant.” D, Meet me at Bannister’s Wharf. Noon G

“Basically, we had no leads there period. Am I right Duncan?” Noah asked.

“You’re very right.” Duncan confirmed.

The two sat in silence on the way back to Newport, there seemed to be no logical reason for any of the four suspects to ever kill Trent Donovan. Duncan’s phone vibrated, and a text appeared.

Duncan grinned and sent a reply

''Sure. See u l8r-Duncan''

When the two arrived back at the station, Noah headed for the building, while Duncan headed away and down a few blocks to Bannister’s Wharf. In front of the Ben & Jerry’s before the actual docks was Gwen. Weirdly enough, there was nobody else here, despite a steady stream of tourists into Newport this time of year.

“Well, how are we doing today Duncan?”

“Pretty good, you wouldn’t believe how the case is going. The biggest amount of evidence we have that will arrest somebody is Heather’s horrible singing.”

“I have something that will clear up your case a little.”

“What Gwen?”

“This.”

Gwen pressed a handgun to Duncan’s forehead, just like on TV.

“I take it you’re the murderer and you want to get rid of me too.”

“Your right Duncan, I like guys like you. Too bad you’re the one who could arrest me.”

“Why did you murder Trent?”

“Because Heather was right!” Gwen exploded, “He was dating Heather when he first asked me out. And do you know where else you’ve heard my last name?”

“No”

“THE STUPID SOFTWARE COMPANY! My parents are rich, and now because of the Trent thing, I’m completely disinherited! He disgraced me; I had to have revenge! Plus, you’re in the way, so I have to get rid of you. I’ve already set up evidence against Heather; but you got there before I set it up. So now you know. I know it’s cliché, but any last words?”

“Yes, I do. They are… Nice try.”

At that moment, four police cruisers stand stopped at the entrance to the wharf. Seven officers, Noah and Police Chief Hatchet surrounded Gwen and Duncan.

“I radioed Noah that I was here, and kept it on. Your little confession was broadcasted directly to Chief Hatchet over here,” Duncan said while pointing to an enraged Chief Hatchet. He stepped up,

“YOU’RE UNDER ARREST CRAZY MURDERER!!!” Chef Hatchet shouted while slapping handcuffs on Gwen. Noah stepped up to Duncan.

“At first, I was coming down here to say how stupid you were. But then I heard Gwen so… Thanks.” Noah said while watching Gwen attempt to resist arrest. “I also didn’t know a handcuffed chick could be that tough.”

“Well Noah, if you want to have a case pretty much solved for you, all you have to do is flirt with the suspects.”

“Riiight Duncan. This has been the weirdest case ever. Before this happened, I would have thought anything like this happening was impossible. You wanna get donuts?”

“Sure Noah.”

The two detectives left the wharf, concluding their horribly planned case.

(Author's Note. Me: This really was an epic fail

Duncan: It wasn’t that bad kid.

Noah: Yes, it was that bad.

Me: Thanks for the support Duncan. Quit being you Noah.

Noah: Why are you doing this AN interview thing Tdirm?

Me: I really don’t know, see ya and I hope I don’t get a scathing review.)

Anonymos' Story
I sat alone in a café, sipping tea from a ceramic mug. I browsed through the newspaper, looking for something interesting to read. I glanced out the window, and was surprised to see a friend running towards the café. She was holding a sheet of paper in her right hand, as she picked up her pace. She burst through the front door.

“Hiya, Beth!” I giggled, “I just found the fashion section in the newspaper, wanna read it with me?”

“Maybe later, Linds,” She replied, “But right now we need your help!” The Killer Grips were on week away from the set, after winning the previous challenge. Beth had stayed at the medical tent after she had gotten a cold, “Okay, so one morning, I woke up, and Leshawna was missing!!”

“Not Lequisha!” I exclaimed.

“Yes, Lequi- I mean Leshawna!” Beth corrected, “Well, I found a note on her bed! I ran outside to tell everyone, when the guys said that the same thing had happened to Justin! The notes said, ‘I have your friends, and soon I’ll get you too.’”

“Justin too?!! AWW!! Can this day get any worse?!!” I whined.

“Focus, Lindsay, I’m sad too, but we can’t let emotions get in the way. Well, then Harold said he could figure it out with his mad skills, but that’s not the point!! So, the four of us that are left at the film lot want you to come back to the movie lot with us to solve the mystery!!” Beth finished.

“Well, okay… But after I finish the fashion section!” I said.

“We don’t have time, we’ve got to go!!” Beth stated. She grabbed my wrist and we ran back to the film lot as fast as we could.

“Well, it’s about time you two got here!” Duncan exclaimed.

“Enough talk, Duncan, we need to find Justin!” I yelled. I looked around, and suddenly observed something, “Wait a second!! Omar isn’t here either!!”

“Owen was voted out already, Lindsay,” Beth explained. Just then, a long, black limousine pulled up to the curb. A middle height brunette stepped out.

“Hey, princess,” Duncan greeted.

“Shut it, Duncan!” Courtney exclaimed, “Beth, as soon as I got your text, I ordered my limo driver to take me here.”

“Sorry to disappoint, princess,” Duncan said, “But we’ve got things under control.”

“You need me, I used to be a CIT!!” She argued, “If anyone’s gonna leave, it’s him!” She pointed to Harold.

“You need me just as much as you think we need you! I have mad skills!” Harold said.

“All of you knock it off!” Beth exclaimed, “If we’re going to solve this mystery, we need teamwork!”

“She’s right…” Courtney admitted.

“Well, if I learned anything at CIA training camp-“ Harold began.

“You were trained by the CIA?” Duncan asked.

“Why, Duncan? Are you afraid of me now?” Harold asked, “You should be! There’s no place that can prepare you for stuff like this other than Carl’s Investigation Academy!” Courtney rolled her eyes.

“First, we’re going to figure out who our suspects are,” Courtney instructed, “Who would be motivated enough to want to kidnap contestants? Possibly they want ultimate revenge on the show, or Chris. No contestants, no show.”

“True,” Beth said, “Who do you think could’ve done it, Linds?”

“Chef Hacker,” I stated, “He’s soooo creepy!”

“I doubt it,” Harold said, “This show pays his bills.”

“Maybe somebody wanted revenge on Leshawna or Justin,” Courtney said.

“Well, Izzy never liked Justin,” Duncan said.

“True,” Courtney nodded.

“Heather would want to take out Leshawna,” Beth pointed out.

“No, they made amends,” Courtney said.

“They did?” Harold asked, “At last, my two ladies are getting along!”

“How did you know?” I inquired.

“My PDA,” Courtney explained.

“So, probably not Heather,” Harold stated.

“Oooh! What about Eva?” I exclaimed, “Remember in the torture challenge when Leshawna beat Eva? They started hating each other!”

“Wow, Lindsay, that was smart,” Duncan complimented, “Especially for you.”

“I have my moments,” I asked, then I gasped, “The kidnapper got Tyler too!”

“Or not…” Duncan murmured.

“What about the people that didn’t make it onto the show?” Harold asked.

“They seemed pretty cool with not being on the show,” Courtney remarked.

“So that leaves them out,” Duncan stated.

“Maybe those interns that quit the show! They always had a bone to pick with Chris!” Beth exclaimed.

“That makes sense,” Courtney said, “So we have Izzy, Eva and Phil the intern. Let’s start with Izzy.”

“Why don’t we split up? It’ll save time,” Beth suggested.

“Not a chance!” Duncan said, “Don’t you know the rules of kidnapping? When we split up they’ll pick us off one by one! First the plucky, comic relief kid, that’s you, Harold,” His eyes lit up, “On second thought, let’s go alone!”

“They will not!” Courtney argued, “And it’s not like this is a movie Duncan! But, if it makes you happy, we’ll go together.”

“I don’t know, Courtney,” Harold persisted, “I’d kind of like to get this over with.”

“I think that we should go together,” I stated.

“Two on three,” Duncan pointed out, “We win!”

“Let’s start with Izzy,” Courtney said.

“Sounds good to me,” Duncan shrugged.

“Everyone into my limo!” Courtney announced. We all walked over to where Courtney had parked the limo. The limo was gone, and there was note where it parked.

I picked the note up and read it aloud, “It’s in some alien language!”

“It’s upside down,” Beth turned the paper around.

“Oh,” I began to read, “I’ve taken your limo and I will pick you off, one by one.”

“Told you!” Duncan exclaimed.

“We’ll just have to walk,” Beth shrugged. We began walking to where the losers stayed, a hotel, two miles north of the film lot.

“Hold on, I have to take a whiz,” Harold complained.

“Fine, go Harold,” Courtney said, “But go quickly.” Harold ducked into a nearby restaurant. We heard a scream from inside. We then saw Harold being carried away by a figure in black.

“Duncan, go check the boys bathroom!” I ordered.

“Ugh, fine…” He muttered. He walked inside, and then came back out, carrying a note; he read it aloud, “Now I’ve got Harold. Four more to go.”

“Let’s get a move-on,” Courtney exclaimed. We began walking again. We soon arrived at the hotel.

“Which room is Izzy staying in?” I asked at the front desk.

“Room 213,” The woman replied.

“Room 213,” I repeated to Duncan, Beth and Courtney.

“Okay, let’s go,” Beth said. We all entered the elevator and pushed the button for floor two. We arrived at the room that said 213 at the top, in fancy golden letters. I knocked, and we waited for a response.

“WHAT IS IT?!!” We heard from inside.

“Izzy?” I asked, “It’s us! Courtney, Duncan, Beth, and Lindsay!”

“Well, why didn’t you say so?” Izzy asked, as the door swung open, “Come on in!” We entered.

“You know that guy, Justin?” Duncan asked.

“Justin…” Izzy winced.

“Yeah, him,” Duncan nodded, “Would you ever, oh, I don’t know… Kidnap him?!”

“Yeah, sure,” Izzy nodded, “Why?”

“Oh, you’re good!” I complimented.

“Enough of that kind of stuff, Duncan. Izzy, some mysterious happenings have been going on around the film lot,” Courtney said, “And we wanted to know if you knew anything about them?”

“I don’t,” She stated, “But do you know who does?” We shook our heads, “EXPLOSIVO!!! BOOM BOOM!!” She whipped open her closet door, and took out several sticks of dynamite, “Boom boom!” Her eye twitched, as she lit a match.

“Well, thank you for your time!” We all ran out of her room as fast as we could. Soon, we entered the lobby. We headed towards the door, but Beth ran ahead of us, and out the door. She turned around to face us.

“Guys, I get it now!” She exclaimed, “There’s only one person out there who would have enough motive to kidnap contestants! It’s obviously-“ A figure dressed in black ran by, and snatched up Beth. She screamed, as a note fluttered to the ground.

Courtney picked it up, “Three of you remain, good luck trying to stop me.” Courtney looked nervous.

“You’re not scared, are you princess?” Duncan asked.

“Of course not!” Courtney said.

“Come on, guys!” I said, “We have to go find Eva!” We all looked at each other.

“The gym,” We nodded.

We soon arrived at the local gym, and to no surprise, we found Eva inside. She was punching a punching bag.

“Eva?” Courtney interrupted her rhythmic workout, “We need to ask you a question. Do you know anything about the kidnappings of Justin or Leshawna?”

“Don’t know, don’t care!” Eva stated, as she stepped on Courtney’s foot. Courtney hobbled back over to us.

“Let me try,” Duncan volunteered, “Hey Eva, I hear Leshawna got kidnapped, pretty great, huh?”

“Yeah, sure, whatever,” She replied.

“You, by any chance wouldn’t- DID YOU DO IT?!” Duncan yelled.

“No,” Eva said.

“Darn, that always works!” Duncan exclaimed in frustration.

“Why don’t I give it a shot?” I asked.

“Go ahead,” Courtney said.

I walked over to Eva, and before I could open my mouth, “No.”

“I think she’s innocent,” Courtney said.

“I agree,” Duncan nodded, “So that leaves the intern.” We left the gym, and headed uptown to Phil’s apartment. Courtney was able to locate him on her PDA. All the way uptown, Courtney became more and more nervous. She became so nervous that on the way up the pavement to Phil’s apartment, she fainted. We had no idea, until we turned around to find that she was being taken away by the figure in black. There was a note left in her place.

I picked it up, “Flee while you can.”

“Let’s go,” Duncan ordered. I nodded. We arrived at Phil’s house. Duncan pounded a fist on the door, “Open up!!” The door creaked open, “Let’s go inside.” We entered the house, and started looking through the house. We soon arrived at a room, and we opened the door. We were shocked to find Phil, tied up. I walked over, and took off the rope that bound his mouth.

“A man in black! He came! And he, he tied me up!” Phil exclaimed.

“Everything will be okay now,” I comforted, “What should we do now, Duncan? Duncan?” I turned, but he was gone, “Duncan?!!” I frantically ran out of the room, and desperate to hide, opened a door next to the room where I had found Phil tied up. I was amazed to find a man in black, as well as Justin, Leshawna, Harold, Beth, Courtney and Duncan. The man tackled me, but I quickly dodged him. He landed face first on the ground, unconscious. I removed the ski mask covering his face, and it was Chef!! “I knew it!!” I exclaimed gleefully, as I untied Duncan. The two of us proceeded to untie the others.

“Nice job, girl!” Leshawna congratulated, “Give me some sugar, baby!!” She grabbed me in a bear hug, and only after my face turned blue did she let go.

“Good work, Lindsay,” Justin smiled. I giggled.

“I knew you could do it, Linds!” Beth exclaimed.

“Yes, good job, Lindsay!” We all turned to face the door, and none other than Chris McLean walked in, “You’ve won this weeks challenge, and the reward that goes with it!”

“Yay!” I laughed.

“You get… The rest of the of your week off!” Chris exclaimed.

“Wait, but I already had that…” I muttered.

“That’s right! But now Beth and Courtney don’t! You’re the only one who gets it,” Chris remarked.

“What?!” Courtney shouted, “What a gyp!”

“Yeah, people tell me that a lot…” Chris said, “All of you, head back to the set, except Lindsay, you can go wherever you want.”

I merrily skipped out the door. I had the rest of the week to do whatever I felt like doing!

"Your awesome host," Heather read saying, "Awesome my butt!"

"Chris McLean"  Cody finished reading his letter.

September 26th, 2009 6:59

One by one, all of the guests arrived. Everybody danced, laughed, and had fun. Chris interrupted the fun saying, "Okay, it's time for the game!"

"What about dinner?" Owen asked.

"Fine!" Chris was eager to start the game.

The guests all ate dinner, well what was left after Owen was finished eating! "Okay. Okay. Time for the game!"

Everybody, but Noah, Heather, and Eva cheered.

"It's a murder mystery game!"

"Cool! I've played many of these before!" Cody said.

"Perfect! Then you will know how to play dead, when you're murdered in the game!" Heather laughed.

"This is how it works; you will each draw a role out of this hat. The role you have has a room to go to, you will find instructions on what you are supposed to do. Memorize your instructions and report back here, in the dining room. There are three victims, eleven suspects, and one murderer."

One by one, each of the guests drew roles, and went directly to the room they were told. They all studied and memorized their instructions, and headed back to the dining room. Chris took all of the instructions and burned them. "The game starts now!"

“Oh yeah, I forgot, if you have the murderer, you automatically lose the game!” Chris said.

“I have to go to the restroom.” Heather said.

“I have to get something to drink, I’m parched.” Gwen said.

“Me too.” Trent said.

“I have to go brush my hair.” Bridgette said.

All four of them left. Trent and Gwen headed to the kitchen, while Heather and Bridgette went to one of the two bathrooms. The bathroom Heather went to was by Chris’s library. The one Bridgette went to was near the Kitchen.

The lights went out for one minute. There was screaming. When the lights came on, Sadie lay on the floor with a fake knife in her back.

Katie screamed and started crying, “Sadie! No Sadie! Who did it? Who?”

“It’s all fake, it’s a part of the game.” Eva said.

Gwen and Trent returned from the kitchen, and gasped at what they saw.

“Why? Why Sadie?” Katie continued to cry.

“Because she drew a victim card.” DJ explained.

Bridgette made it back from the bathroom saying, “I heard screaming, and I tried to make back as fast as I could. What happened?” Bridgette was out of breath.

“Sadie was the first victim.” Geoff explained.

Bridgette noticed Katie crying and said, “Don’t worry Katie, it’s not real.”

Heather returned.

“Where have you been?” Trent asked.

“I was in the bathroom.” Heather was shocked.

“The bathroom right by the kitchen.” Cody said.

“And the kitchen is right by the dining room!” Gwen added.

“Pretty suspicious, eh. Ezekiel said.

“Please! There were twelve people in the dining room, which means anyone of them could have done it!” Heather defended herself.

“She’s right; it could be anyone of you all.” Izzy said.

“What do you mean you all?” Tyler said.

“Well, I didn’t do it!” Izzy said.

“I didn’t do it either!” Noah said.

“How do we know if you’re lying?” Eva asked.

“What do you mean if? I’m not lying!” Izzy and Noah said in unison.

“Well, you’re crazy” Eva pointed to Izzy, “and you’re lazy!” Eva pointed to Noah.

“I think you just proved Noah to be innocent.” Heather pointed out.

“You’re right, Noah’s to lazy to walk to get a fake knife and come back in a minute.” Geoff pointed out.

“How do you know that’s what you’re supposed to do?” Owen asked.

“I don’t.” Geoff said.

“I’m hungry.” Heather said. “I didn’t get anything to eat, because the big guy here ate almost everything!” Heather walked to the kitchen, and made herself a sandwich, and get her a glass of orange juice. She then headed to the library to read a book.

“I forgot my hairbrush in the bathroom.” Bridgette said.

“I’m hungry!” Owen said.

“There’s a shocker!” Eva said.

Owen headed to the kitchen. He noticed a cookie jar and said, “Yum! Cookies!” He lifted the top of the jar, and a secret passageway was revealed. He wondered what he should do, so he grabbed all of the cookies and entered the secret passage way.

“I’m going to go check on him.” Cody said.

Cody went into the kitchen and saw the secret passageway. He followed the cookie crumbs and found Owen passed out on the ground. Cody ran back to the dining room and yelled, “Owen has fainted and he is just laying there on the ground.”

Bridgette returned saying, “I can’t find my hairbrush.”

The lights went out for five minutes, and then came back on.

Cody grabbed Bridgette and asked, “Do you have experience with first aid?”

“Yeah why?” She was confused.

“Come with me.” Cody ran towards the secret passageway and Bridgette followed. When they reached where Owen was, he wasn’t there.

“Where is he?” Bridgette asked. “Is this some kind of prank?”

“No. I swear he was here.” Cody said. “Let’s follow the cookie crumbs.”

“Okay. Whoa!” Bridgette tripped over something. “My hairbrush!”

“How did it get here?” Cody asked.

“I don’t know.”

“Have you ever been in this passageway before?” Cody asked.

“No! I haven’t.” Bridgette said.

Trent came running after them saying, “Owen came back.”

They all headed for the dining room.

“Where’s the mean girl, eh?” Ezekiel asked.

“Which one, Heather or Eva?” Tyler asked without thinking.

Eva growled.

“Heather!” Ezekiel said.

“She was in the library.” Bridgette said.

Katie ran to the library and screamed. Heather was laying there with a rope around her neck. Everybody ran to the library.

Chris came in and said, “Move all of the victims’ bodies to the deck in the back yard.”

They did so.

“I’m thirsty, anybody want a bottle of water?” Trent asked.

“No.” Everybody responded.

Trent went to the kitchen to get him something to drink. He chugged the whole bottle. He came back and collapsed.

“Trent!” Gwen yelled.

Everyone was shocked.

“Well that’s three deaths,” Chris came in and said. “Now all the people need to pick who you think the murderer is.” He handed everybody a piece of paper and a crayon.

“Seriously? A crayon?” Heather asked.

“Just write down your name, and who you think the murderer is!”

Everybody did as told.

“Okay, the top ten people chosen were: Tyler, Katie, Bridgette, Heather, Cody, Gwen, Trent, Izzy, Sadie, and DJ. Why did you choose the victims?” Chris asked.

Everybody shrugged. The lights went out, yet again, and came on thirty seconds later. Everyone screamed. Cody lay there on the deck, with a brick by his head.

“That’s why!” Sadie said.

“One of the victims is a liar!” Chris laughed. “The top five chosen were: Izzy, Bridgette, DJ, Cody, and Tyler. The top three were: Bridgette, Izzy, and DJ.””Me? Why me?” DJ asked.

“Because, you are super nice, and you would make the perfect fake murderer.” Geoff explained.

“The top two chosen were: Bridgette and DJ. Bridgette had the most votes.” Chris told them.

“How many votes did I have?” Bridgette wanted to know.

“Seven.” Chris told her. “Now everybody reveal the cards you picked at the beginning of the game.”

Bridgette’s card said Suspect Five.

“If you picked Bridgette, you were wrong!” Chris laughed.

DJ had Suspect Eleven. Izzy had Suspect Ten. Gwen had Suspect Six. Ezekiel had Suspect One. Eva had Suspect Two. Noah had Suspect Seven. Sadie had Victim One. Heather had Victim Two. Geoff had Suspect Three. Tyler had Suspect Nine. Owen had Suspect Four.

“We’re down to three!” Chris said.

Katie’s card said Suspect Eight.

“Either Trent or Cody is a liar!”

“I am. I’m the liar and the murderer.” Trent revealed his card, it said Murderer. “I thought it would be fun to spice things up, so I decided to pretend to be a victim so nobody would vote for me.”

Everyone gasped.

“Smart! I like the way you think!” Chris admired Trent for a moment.

Cody revealed his card it said Victim Three.

“Now sit down if you voted for Bridgette.” Chris said.

Gwen, Tyler, Katie, Ezekiel, DJ, Owen, and Sadie all sat down.

“Sit down if you voted for DJ.”

Noah, Cody, and Heather sat down.

“Sit if you voted for Izzy.”

Eva and Bridgette sat down.

“If you voted for Tyler sit down.”

Geoff sat down.

“Who voted for Trent?” Chris asked.

“I did.” Izzy said.

“So did I, but that doesn’t count.” Trent said.

“Izzy is the winner!” Chris announced.

Everybody cheered for Izzy.

“What’s my prize?” Izzy asked.

“You can have a choice! You can go home right now with 50,000 dollars, or you can return on Total Drama Action, for the last time!”

“I’ll take the 50,000!” Izzy said.

“Okay!” Chris said.

Later that night, Izzy got her check and left. Chris made everyone leave not to long after Izzy left. One week later, Izzy got a call from Chris wanting her to return to Total Drama Action because Izzy had not been voted off yet!

Thebiggesttdifan's Story
The sidewalk.

The smooth, gray, sidewalk, littered with leaves and dead grass. August was coming to an end, and soon Duncan Nelson would be back on parole, back in juvenile hall. August was the only month that Duncan could get out through that exit door guarded with an electric fence and barb-wire, not to mention seven highly-trained security guards and a raging bull. With red jumpsuits, if any of the child criminals tried to escape from the Muskoka Juvenile Hall out of season, the bull would nail it down and the kid would get chained to the wall for a day if he even came out of the bull’s grasp alive. That one month of freedom was all they had to avoid the torture.

But even that freedom would come to a close by next year. A mentally unstable thirteen-year-old who resided at the Musk Hall, as Muskoka Juvenile Hall was dubbed by the wrongdoers, had physically assaulted Jackson Michaels, a famous pop musician, and stole his wallet, emptying all the cash, credit cards, debit cards, and Jackson Michaels’ own driver’s license and tried to pass off as him during the month of freedom. So by next year, there would be no more summer break. The kids’ permanent home would become the Musk Hall, never leaving beyond the angry bull who loathed red jumpsuits.

Duncan was walking along that smooth, gray sidewalk as he thought about all this with his thirty-nine year old mother. She was the only one that believed that Duncan could change, as opposed to others—his father didn’t even love Duncan, and his little brother Steve made him look like a failure. Yannick and Victor, Noah’s uncle and paternal grandfather respectively, called him a “rotten scum” and treated him harshly. Every word they spoke to Duncan whipped him across the heart. Even Jocelyn and Simon, Duncan’s maternal grandparents, thought that maybe he should show some heart, despite the fact that they had clearly seen his kiss to Courtney right on their old black-and-white TV screen.

Duncan’s thoughts were abruptly interrupted by a clomping noise. “What was that?” he asked his mother.

“I’m not sure,” she replied. Suddenly there was another clomping noise. “What the heck?” Duncan’s mother muttered. She picked up a rock, which had suddenly seemed to fall on the sidewalk.

Suddenly Duncan heard a sound like one a kid practicing martial arts would say, and then there was an uncomfortable bashing noise. Duncan didn’t need to know what the sound was that time—a rock had hit Duncan’s mother on the bridge of her nose. She gave out a pained yelp and collapsed right over on the sidewalk, stunned.

“Mom!” Duncan screamed. For as cold-hearted as he seemed through the outside, he cared deeply for his mother. “Are you all right?”

“I’m fine, Duncan,” she said rather weakly but firmly. Duncan could tell his mom was trying to shake the injury off. “Just take me home. The worst that can happen is that I’m going to break my nose.”

“You really don’t look okay, Mom.” Duncan was very worried, and his tone showed. “I should at least take you to the hospital. If you do break your nose, that’s the ideal place to fix it, right?”

“Whatever, fine.” Madison Nelson acted quite young for her age. Soon, Duncan dragged his mom to the hospital, and after going through every weird thing people at the hospital went through, Duncan returned home. A few days passed and nothing happened. Then, with five days left till Musk Hall opened again, Duncan’s family received the news that they should immediately come down to the hospital. Duncan’s father grumbled and automatically concluded that Duncan had thrown the rock at his own mother. An outright lie!

Duncan was the first who was allowed to go into the room where his mom lay, mainly because he was with her at the time that she had been injured. Madison Nelson looked weak, and something about her eyes made Duncan think she was about to burst into tears. He approached his mother awkwardly, and said, “Mom?”

His mom grunted. “Wha?” She seemed even tougher than before.

“Do you have any last words to say for me?”

“Well, I guess I can give you some advice.” She struggled to get up, but finally whispered, “Sea sponges are animals, not plants.”

“What?” Whatever Mom meant didn’t make sense to Duncan.

“You heard me the first time.” Soon, a nurse called Duncan out, and there was nothing left to do but think as his family left the hospital. Think…and think…and think…

And then, something forced Duncan to cry. At first he tried to stop his crying, but in the end there was no use. Duncan knew the rest of the guys at the Musk Hall would kill him once he got there—nobody EVER cried. It would be even worse, because Duncan was barely a delinquent at all during the one-month break, especially around his mother. Duncan cried when his family was driving home, too. When they returned to his house, Duncan could barely open his eyes. They were bristled together by millions of dried-up tears. And Duncan kept crying.

At least, that is, until Duncan’s father slapped him across the eyes. “You are a criminal,” he said fiercely. “You’re not supposed to, but you are one, you idiot. Criminals think their mothers are #@*!)es, not sources of happiness and comfort. Even if you weren’t a little delinquent, I WILL NOT TOLERATE YOU BEING A WHINY LITTLE SISSY!” Duncan rubbed his eyes and squirted out some tears that were still in them.

“Got it, Dad.” He muttered, “Sheesh,” for good measure, then went inside.

The next day was pretty uneventful, for the Nelsons had received some news.

Madison Nelson was no longer at the hospital.

She was dead.

Everyone cried except for Yannick and Victor, who felt no sympathy at all for anybody, especially a woman who believed that rotten scum of a nephew/grandson Duncan could change ways. THAT was certainly unusual.

Duncan sat stiff most of the day. He was the only one who had witness how his mom had died, so he had to be sure about this. But he was pretty sure that nobody would throw a rock at his mother accidentally. It was murder, not manslaughter, which had caused his mother’s death.

And he would find the culprit.

So Duncan met with a police officer named Leshawna Hamilton two days later. There were already some suspects—a black kid who was Duncan’s arch-enemy was number one on the list.

The two found a bit of evidence, too. The rock which had hit Madison Nelson still lay where it was, much to Duncan’s surprise. There was a small scratch from where it had hit, but there were no fingerprints visible. More proof that the murder was planned.

On the second day Leshawna and Duncan had met, Leshawna said suddenly, “White boy, you’re gonna need a lawyer. So that’s why I hired one for you.”

“Wha—?” Duncan asked. “There’s going to be a trial?”

“Well, what would you expect?” Leshawna laughed. “Anyway, your lawyer’s name is Stephan Ganatik. You’ll meet him soon.”

The days came and went. Duncan was even allowed a day off from the Musk Hall because the staff claimed he had to get over his grief before he came back. Soon, Duncan met his lawyer.

“You look familiar,” Duncan pointed out. Stephan Ganatik was white, with brown hair and wide, long eyes.

“Everyone says that,” Stephan replied.

And then came the trial. The black kid was claimed the Defense, while Duncan and his family were the Prosecution. The whole thing came, with Stephan and Fiona Comotaka, the Defense’s lawyer, cross-examining and direct-examining witness (Duncan thought he saw his father himself as one of the witnesses) and giving opening and closing statements. Then the jury made their confirmation, and the foreman of the jury went up. He took a deep breath and said:

“We confirm that Simon Nelson, Jr. is guilty.”

Duncan’s own father? Duncan could clearly see the possibility in it all—his father always wanted him to shape up and change heart, or at least quit being a sissy. And he had scolded Duncan’s mother in their video message to his Total Drama Island letter for saying “Oh, of course we love Duncan!”

But then he remembered: Simon had cried along with the rest of the group. Sure, he only had shed a single tear, but it felt as if it was enough to fill three countries.

Duncan had seen him shed that single tear once before: when Duncan’s dog, Petie, ran away when Duncan was six and his father thirty-two. It wasn’t much, but for a father like him, it was a whole lot.

It showed that his father cared.

And it showed that his father would never kill another human, and deeper than the fact that he was just a cop: You don’t kill somebody if you care.

Thinking all this, Duncan did the unbelievable: He got out of his seat.

And then he said, “My father’s not guilty.” And then Duncan said exactly what was on his mind.

The judge looked puzzled for a minute and thought Duncan’s words over. Finally, the judge banged his gavel and said, “We don’t exactly know who’s guilty in this case. We’ll think it over. In the meantime…you can all go home.”

On the way home, Simon Nelson clapped a hand on Duncan’s shoulder. “If it wasn’t for you, I’d be in jail right now. Thank you, son.” Simon smiled.

And that’s when Duncan knew that his father was a sea sponge. And sea sponges did not deserve to be treated like plants.

Chimchar's Story
12:30, Downtown Muskoka.

It was all over the news. The whole town of Muskoka was buzzing about it. The crime, the suspects, and the punishment for this horrible deed. I was called in.

It was just a normal day for me. I had just finished my early-mid-morning snack when I got the call. I picked up the phone and answered “Owen’s Detective Agency, Owen speaking.”

“Owen, my man! I never knew you ran a detective agency!” I knew that voice. It was Geoff, my buddy from TDI! But why would he be calling a detective agency?

“Hey, Geoff! Why are you calling a detective agency?”

“Cause’ Bridge is MIA!” I gasped. It was more serious than I thought. Worse than I could imagine. I just had one little question.

“Uh…what does MIA mean?”

“Dude, MISSING IN ACTION! This is serious! Bridge is gone!” I gasped. Bridgette? Missing? But why?

“I’ll get on it right away! Right after lunch, that is…wanna come?”

“Dude, are you KIDDING? Let’s go!”

1:02: Burger King.

“Hey, dude!” Geoff exclaimed. We had just sat down with our food. I had always had problems fitting in those tiny seats, but Geoff had no trouble. “I was wondering if we could talk about Bridgette…”

“Can this wait till I finish my whopper?”

“NO!! This is serious, man!"

“Fine…what do we know?”

“Well…” Geoff ponders. “We were getting married in 8 days. She went out to get dinner from her surf shack, and she never came back.”

“Hmmm…where is the surf shack located?”

“Elwood Drive. Why, you gonna go search for evidence?”

“No, I’m gonna search for some fish and chips! Maybe some evidence…but mainly fish and chips!” Geoff facepalms for some reason, then he looks at me with a worried look in his eyes.

“OK, let’s talk suspects. I think Duncan may be behind this. He never had much respect for Bridge. Then again, he’s in enough of a situation with that ravioli pixie chasing him around all day….I don’t care who did it as long as I get my Bridgette back!” He slammed his head down on the table and began to cry. I saw the full story now. Geoff was desperate to get his girl back, and he had trusted me of all people to save her. I understood now. It was time for me to get into serious mode…right after I finish my fries.

4:23: Bridgette’s Surf Shack.

I had just arrived at the surf shack. I was just headed for the crabs when I tripped over something. I was incredibly annoyed until I saw what I had tripped on. A pair of glasses. Only two people in Muskoka wear glasses. Beth and Harold. But Harold had a decent friendship with Bridgette, so it seemed unlikely. Still, I jotted their names down in a notebook I had been carrying around. I kept walking. As soon as I got to the storage area, I noticed another clue. It looked like a straw. A straw that might have DNA on it! I quickly pocketed it. Just then, I saw the most important clue a guy could ask for. Fish sticks! I chowed down as fast as I could, savoring their crunchiness. By the time I had finished, it was dark outside. I had to hurry and get back to the detective agency to put my clues together. Besides, tomorrow they were having a trial with all the suspects, and I had to have all my evidence put together by then.

Tuesday, 3:23: Muskoka Courthouse.

I sat on a bench the jury had prepared for me. The whole gang from TDI was there. In fact, probably everyone who knew Bridgette was here. Duncan had just finished pleading guilty. “Owen, you may rise.” I stood and faced the judge.

“Your honor, I have evidence of who committed this crime.” I laid out the evidence on the table. The judge examined it curiously.

“Well, the glasses I understand, but the straw...” He scanned it with some weird looking device. “It has two DNA signatures on it!”

“Oh yeah, I kinda got thirsty on the way here. Sorry. Hehe. But do you know who kidnapped Bridgette?” The judge whispered with his colleagues. After about half an hour of whispering, half of the jury was asleep. The judge suddenly turned back to face the courtroom, and slammed his hammer-thingy down. Everybody snapped awake.

“By using the…ahem.” The judge glared at me with wild eyes. “Other DNA signature on that straw…we have come to a conclusion. The person who has kidnapped Miss Bridgette Jones is…” The judge pointed to me with a disgusted look on his face. “THAT MAN!!!” Geoff gasped. Beth gasped. Everybody gasped, and the judge slammed his hammer thingy down.

“Me? Why-“Then, Sunday evening came rushing back into my mind. I had made red beans and rice for myself. I had ignored the crucial fact that beans make me sleepwalk. But I didn’t remember kidnapping Bridgette…

“Geoff!” I spun around to see Bridgette running towards Geoff.

“Bridgette!”Geoff cried, and he dashed towards his fiancé. The two embraced.

“Oh, Geoff, I’m so happy to see you! I’ve been trapped in Owen’s food closet for days, and I just managed to escape now!”

“DAYS!?! But how did you…oh right, FOOD closet.”

“Oh, Geoff...”

“Oh, Bridge…” The two passionately made out. A collective “Awwwwwwwww…” was heard from the courtroom. Then the judge turned to me.

“You, sir, are sentenced to juvenile detention for 6 months!” He slammed his hammer-thingy down again, and two goons tried to pick me up and take me out. They grunted and groaned for a while, and they ended up dragging me out.

“Wait! Is the food good in juvie? Wait-NOOO!!!” I cried as I was dragged out and shoved into a police car. Everybody cheered in celebration that Bridgette was found. Just then, Duncan went wide-eyed, and he headdesked.

“What’s wrong, Duncan, honey?” Courtney inquired.

“Juvie’s punishment enough without having to deal with Owen there!”

Turnertang's Story
There was a flash of darkness, a scream, and then the lights came on to reveal that Lindsay was stolen. The cops arrived moments later but I stayed with them because I wanted to do some research because Lindsay's my BFF.

"Have you found any clues?" I asked as I looked at the crime sI saidcene.

"Nothing yet." replied the cop as something caught my eye.

"Look here." I said as I picked up a knife that was lying on the ground.

"Thanks a lot but lets let the professionals do this." the cop said as four teens and one dog came walking up to us.

"Lets split up and look for clues." said the blonde, male teenager.

"I think I can handle this." I said as I got an idea.

"So you need my help." said a teenage boy with a mohawk.

"I need to find out who took Lindsay." I said as I handed him some money.

"You got a deal." Duncan said as we walked back to the crime scene.

"So far we have a knife." I said.

"The only person who would have a knife is Chef." Duncan said as we ran to Chef.

"Where's Lindsay?" I asked excitedly.

"I ain't got no Lindsay!" Chef yelled back.

"I believe you." I said as I walked away.

"Even I'm stumped." Duncan said as he put his hand on a statue and a passageway opened.

"A secret passage." I said in surprise.

"Lets go." Duncan said as they walked into the passage way to see Lindsay tied up and next to her a red head, teenage girl.

"Who are you?" I asked.

"I am Daphne, you worst nightmare." she said very calmly.

"Well I'm calling the cops." I said.

"No your not." she said as she ran away.

"I got it." Duncan said as he as he tackled Daphne.

"Jeepers." Daphne said as she got beat up.

"So it turned Daphne stole Lindsay because she wanted to be the prettiest girl in the world and the knife just fell off a table." I said as people took my picture and Daphne was taken away.

Oweguy's Story
'''Geoff. Private Eye. The mystery of Izzy's dissappearance.'''

3:02 PM, Muskoka

I was just sitting at my desk eating chili fries and playing with a paddle ball. My phone started ringing on my desk and I knew someone was calling for a crime.

Yep that’s me. Privite Geoff. I then picked up the phone as it rang the third time.

“Hello. Geoff’s detective agency.” I said. It was a call from Owen. My assistant. “Hello.” He said, “Sorry to bother you but Izzy’s gone missing!” I knew that there was a problem. “Where did you last saw her?” I asked. “We were last at McDonalds eating lunch. You should check there.” Owen told me. “I’ll be right there.” I told him as I hung up.

4:15 PM, McDonalds

It was basically a normal day at McDonalds. People just eating their food and playing with happy meal toys. I decided to ask the guy at the counter if he’d seen a crime.

“Excuse me sir?” I asked him.

“Yes. Do you like to order?” he asked.

“No. I’m wondering if you saw a crime outside of here.” I told him.

“No not that I’ve know of. But you should check down in the city. There’s always crimes down there.” the guy at the counter told me.

“Okay. Thanks.” I said as I head on out and went down to the city.

4:32 PM, Downtown Muskoka

The streets were rough downtown and I knew Izzy would’ve been somewhere around here. As I walked down, I heard something in the ally.

“Psst.” Whispered someone.

“Who’s there?” I asked.

“It’s me.” The person was revealed to be my pal Duncan who normally helps me out with a crime.

“Why are you here?” I asked.

“I heard about Izzy’s disappearance.” said Duncan.

“So do you know where she is?” I asked.

“Yes. I know the exact person who did it.” replied Duncan.

“Who did it?” I asked.

“Heather. I saw the whole thing happen.” said Duncan.

“Where did this happen?” I asked.

“In the bowels of the sewers. You should check.” Duncan replied.

“Okay. I’ll go there tonight.” I said. We then walked off.

8:00 PM, Muskoka Sewers

The sewers were dark at night but I knew that the end of this crime mystery ends here. As I walked deeper and deeper into the sewer, I heard some footsteps. The person walking was none other than Heather with Izzy tied up.

“Hey! Give Izzy back!” I shouted.

“And what will I do if I don’t?” she asked.

“I’m going to call the police.” I told her.

Before I finished, Heather jumped out of the sewers and got away. I untied Izzy in the meantime.

“Thanks Geoff.” she said.

“You’re welcome.” I said.

“Why aren’t you going after Heather?” asked Izzy.

“I set a trap up on her.” I told her.

Back at the streets, Heather walks but a flashing light aims at her. It was the RCMP.

“Heather! You’re under arrest!” They told her.

“What?! Who told you people?” asked Heather.

Duncan hides in the alleyway with a payphone near him.

“Wow. You and Duncan set that up?” asked Izzy.

“Yep.” I said.

7:30 AM, Downtown Muskoka

Heather gets put in the police car and Izzy is reunited with Owen.

“Good work private Geoff as well as you Duncan.” said the RCMP chief.

“All in a day’s worth.” I told him.

And that concludes my story. If you every have a crime problem, just ring private Geoff.

THE END

COKEMAN11's Story
The Party, the Dream, the Challenge, the Zebra


 * Note from the author: The reason why there may be some loose ends to tie up and things unexplained is summed up at the end...in Lindsay's Room.

3:10: Playa des Losers

Trent arrives at Playa des Losers for a party. Cody is the only other one there.

“Cody, man, nice to see you.” Trent says.

“You got the letter, too. Huh.” Cody says back.

“Yeah.” Trent takes out the letter. ''It’s ur ttly awesome host Chris. I am writing this 2 tell u that there is a party at teh loser hotel on Sunday, August 2nd. Be there or miss out on teh biggest party evr. If u don’t go u r a pwned n00b.''

“That’s a lot of bad grammar.” Cody says.

“It’s leetspeak. …I wonder why it’s like that.” Trent walks away. Ezekiel arrives, then Geoff, then Gwen, then Noah, then Duncan.

“Not many people got the invite, I see.” Gwen says to Trent.

“Yeah.” Trent says back.

“Guys, did you notice the grammar of that thing?” Duncan interrupts.

“The letter, you mean?” Trent asks.

“Yeah, that.” Duncan says.

Bridgette and Eva arrive. Eva is in a straightjacket.

“Why is Eva in a straightjacket?” Gwen asks.

“Juvie.” Duncan responds. Finally, Chris arrives.

“Chris is finally here.” Cody says.

“Yep.” Chris says. “The epic host is here.”

“That doesn’t sound like something Chris would say…” Cody whispers to Gwen.

“Hey, where’s Bridgette?” Trent asks.

3:30: Playa des Losers Basement

“And stay there!” A voice says.

“Mmph! Mmph!” Someone appears to be gagged.

3:31: Playa des Losers Airport

“We got an airport installed here while you weren’t here.” Chris explains.

“Whatever…what are we here for?” Eva says.

“A Total Drama Action preparation challenge!” Chris smiles.

“Well?” Duncan asks. “What is it?”

“This!” Chris pulls a switch, and everything is dark. Bridgette mysteriously appears when the lights are on.

“Where’d blonde surfer come from?” Eva asks.

“It’s a hint…” Chris says. “To solve the murder mystery challenge!”

“Bridgette’s the murderer. Can we leave?” Gwen says.

“Nope.” Chris says. “She isn’t.”

“Then what was the hint?” Duncan asks.

“Detective Bridgette!” Chris says.

“Anyone notice someone missing?” Cody says.

“Ezekiel…” Chris notices. “That wasn’t according to the operation…”

“What operation?” Eva asks.

“Nothing, nothing.” Chris suspiciously confirms.

3:39: Playa des Losers

“Hmm…” Bridgette is dressed like Sherlock Holmes.

“Found any clues yet, Bridge?” Cody asks.

“I found this…um…thing, with a thing next to it.” Bridgette says.

“What’s that supposed to mean?” Eva asks.

“DNA. I’ll take it to the lab.” Bridgette says.

“There’s a lab here?” Noah pops in.

“Yes.” Bridgette confirms.

3:50: Playa des Losers Lab

“I’m scanning the DNA right now…” Bridgette is at a machine.

“And how will this tell us whose DNA it is?” Noah asks.

“I’m gonna take everyone’s DNA scans…and plus, I have Geoff, Justin, Harold, and LeShawna’s scans as well.” Bridgette explains.

“Good. That’ll help.” Eva says.

“Found anything yet?” Duncan asks.

“I found…” Bridgette stops.

“Yes?” Cody says.

“ … … … … … … …” Bridgette is silent.

“Tell us before I get too jittery.” Noah says.

“You don’t get jittery.” Gwen says.

“Ever heard of SARCASM?” Noah says back.

“What did you find, Bridge?” Geoff says anxiously.

“Stop nagging!” Bridgette yells. “Let me scan all of your DNA.”

“How will we do that?” Eva asks.

“Each of you, spit into a cup.” Bridgette commands.

“No way.” Cody says.

“Okay. Then… you can miss out on Total Drama Action.” Bridgette says.

“I already am.” Cody says, and looks down.

“Then spit in the cup.” Bridgette gives Cody a cup.

“Whatever.” Cody does as told.

4:03: Playa des Losers Lab

“I found Duncan’s, Eva’s, Gwen’s, Noah’s, Ezekiel’s and my own DNA.” Bridgette confirms.

“Meaning we should look in the basement.” Eva says.

“What does that have to do with anything?” Noah asks.

“And what is the mystery anyway?” Gwen asks. Chris then pops up.

“Where Ezekiel is!” Chris smiles.

“Um… okay.” Eva says. “To the basement.”

“Whatever.” Bridgette agrees.

4:10: Playa des Losers Basement

“What’s that noise?” Trent asks.

“Flashlight, anyone?” Bridgette asks.

“Nope.” Noah says.

“You got me there.” Trent says.

“No flashlight with the goth girl.” Gwen says.

“Nope.” Duncan and Eva say. No one else had a flashlight.

A figure brushes up against Cody, who screams. A flashlight is handed to Cody by the figure. He shines it on the figure, who is Ezekiel, gagged and tied up.

“EZEKIEL?” Noah says.

“Mmph! MMPH!” Ezekiel tries to speak. Bridgette unties him.

“Noah! What the heck did you tie me up for?” Ezekiel says.

“NOAH DID IT?!” Duncan asks. The lights turn on, and Chris comes in.

“The challenge is completed.” Chris says.

“Whatever.” Eva says. “Can we leave?”

“Not yet!” A cage drops on all of the players. A person is in a Chris suit. That person is Heather.

“REVENGE!” Heather says, when, at the same time, the RCMP arrives.

“The RCMP?” Heather says.

“Yep,” They say. “That’s the second Total Drama contestant we have to arrest.”

“Wait…what’s that sound?” Duncan hears a sound.

“THERE’S A…” Cody freezes up.

“YELLOW ZEBRA!” Noah screams.

7:30: Lindsay’s Room

Lindsay wakes up. “WHOA!” She says. “I just had the freakiest dream EVER. Who would have thought that a beautiful blonde like me could have a kidnapping mystery dream?”


 * Note from the author: The note at the beginning says that everything weird is explained in Lindsay's Room. "Who thought that a beautiful blonde like me could have a kidnapping mystery dream?"

Usitgz's Story
'''Revenge! Gosh!'''

Side Note:This is a few years after TDA.

She's dead, I can't believe she is dead. Duncan could not get that thought out of his head, as he was calling the cops. He kept trying to remember the party, but it was all a haze after it happened. He remebered the guests, he came with Courtney, DJ came with bunny, Harold and Leshawna came, Bridgette, Noah, Cody, oh... and that homeschool guy, umm... Azelkel? When we got there Geoff answered the door, with Bridgette at his side.

"Welcome to the party, dude, and Courtney," said Geoff. Duncan looked around the Geoff's house, and saw Noah in the corner, and smirked.

"Why did you invite that loser?" asked Duncan while pointing at Noah. Geoff shruged, and showed them around the house, Duncan noticed that Harold, Leshawna, Cody, and Bunny were playing video games in a room. Duncan rembered all the good times he had with Harold and laughed. Duncan couldn't remember the rest...

Duncan woke up, that was a wierd dream, uh... Duncan didn't realize the unfamiliar surrondings.

The End
