National NaNoWriMo Doing Month!
RE: National NaNoWriMo Doing Month!
I'm in.

I recommend we use Choicescript for this. It's the thing I used for the Select Your Own Pick A Choice in Order and Chaos, and if you're just doing a simple CYOA it couldn't be simpler. Nobody'd have to download or learn anything, just avoid indentation in the body of the text and format their end choice like so:

Code:
*choice
  #To enter the cave of time, go to page 2.
    *goto_scene page2
  #To enter the cave of space, go to page 3.
    *goto_scene page3

And then the next person's entry just goes in a "page2.txt" file (or a Google doc that would be that if it were saved locally on someone's computer.) At the end, one person can compile it all, and we actually get a copy we can play through! (If this sounds too hard, it'd also be a cinch to retrofit...)

Count me in for team "don't read any more than you have to." How else is the crazy train gonna run off the rails? Likewise, IIRC the last time you guys did it you kept everything in one Google doc and then trusted in the power of Google doc bookmarks, which is like, such a crazy way to do it and didn't consistently work, at least on my end (which is why I didn't join in.) Even if we don't go with the above I STILL think we should have every page on a separate document.
