The fic itself is 33k words, so surely that should be enough to make something ridiculously coherent, right?

What came back out was a glorious mess of urple nonsense.

The midnight air shed darkling not to the midnight hours still unchangeable truth with forest boughs and still more upon the night. With dim lusty pains anguish the voice silver glitterings and feel it rich anger shows hope. Not grieve the bugle amen.

I never once used "bugle" or "amen" in the fic, so why the generator spit that back out at me, I have no idea.

And it comes out moderately coherent. For instance, purely by clicking the first suggestion, I get this:

The nightshade nodded quickly and set off in pursuit "... No one here but me to hit him were her mind not on other things in hq as nyx had managed to break in the ppc had to offer some weak form of emotional support in the ppc [...]

Which can be parsed as this:

The Nightshade nodded quickly and set off in pursuit. "...no one here but me to hit him." Were her mind not on other things in HQ... as Nyx had managed to break in, the PPC had to offer some weak form of emotional support.

Which at least approximates coherency. (Though I am downright baffled to discover that the Nightshade is my most typical character.) Reorg is... sweet mercy, it's 62K. :O I had no idea.

Um, anyway, anything novel-length should give something coherent. My next plan is to try all my pre-mission sections from Driftwood, to see if the single location/event format means it'll come out with something plotted.

MS Word tells me that my combined out-of-continuity interludes are 4281 words. The Harry Potter thing may be based on all seven novels (about a million words^*)), and I don’t know how much human effort went into it.

Here's what I got out of an ANSI version, using only the first suggestion:

The agents were dumped into the latter by default and the broken finger pointed at his stalk eyes to the computer read the language that made up the world is overrun with Sues to fight the Sues and Nume had promised to hit me with a wand and my notebook and stood with his red pen stuck at an authoritative angle behind his ear and told her to go back to headquarters anyway?~doesn't work that way as the characters had hysterics with a sigh of relief and replaced his shades with his regular glasses and beckoned to Ilraen and opened a portal to the fic won't jerk us around anymore on account o' the fire was a Dalek exterminating the viruses of the room without speaking a word in edgewise before Nita was angry at him and four angry dragonets to gorge the agents were dumped into the latter by default

As you can see, I stopped when it started repeating itself. I'm not even gonna try to figure that mess out. ^_^;

First, I don't think Botnik likes Unicode. I fed it everything from the RC 999 spinoff and wanted to make sure the angle brackets and such got preserved, so I used Unicode instead of ANSI, but maybe that was a bad idea, because it stuck gibberish Unicode blocks between every actual character, and I can't seem to copy & paste it. Sigh.

Second, picking the top middle choice gave me weirdness (first sentence), but picking the top left choice just spat back out whole lines as they were originally written, word for word from "Family Ties." Is it supposed to do that? Was I doing it wrong? O.o

Here's what I got:

The Andalite peered avidly as a cover her. It was fortunate that the world was full of uncertainty and and that the future was shadowed. Then she left. The doppelganger, having been given a name and thus full character status, lingered instead of fading out with the scene. Nume pulled out his wand and delivered a Full Body Bind with such force that Sithchean actually scudded across the floor before he was quite prone.

If you lot go download the GNU Terry Pratchett plugin for Firefox (or its Chrome equivalent), you'll see a tiny semaphore blinking on any site that has GTP set up.

The semaphore will now blink on T-Board.
