There are no rules in Layer Tennis. But decorum must be observed.
You're at a dinner party, you've just told a complicated story about a meeting at work where Jane Austen-subtle misplays of communication took place, and you've actually managed to render this pretty well at the table, and then another guest burps and says, "Well, yeah, shit happens," and then tells a joke about nerd-mashing.
Folks, I vote thumbs-down on this reply. Sam pushes the game forward down the line, but his dragon's almost too easy: we lost a lot of Ted's previous motifs, only Duckie Red Eyes has stuck around. Man, I miss that hater wolf.
Hey, Ted, I know you're busy nerd-mashing your next layer, but can you bring the wolf back? Thanks.
Three frames in and the game is swinging for Ted in my view. What's your take? Let 'em know in the comments.
