_Another Response to ROBO LIFE_ (I wasn't sure weather to post it here or on the discussion page) Ryan, i really liked your story and it was interesting. I couldn't predict the ending and the events came at me from out of nowhere, which was kind of amusing and overall it was good. Although i have to agree with kevin that the charector wasn't developed as much. And some of the events didn't really make sense. Like you might want to explain how the dad got there in the end. I thought the dad planned this out to give his son a lesson but with your twist at the ending, it got a little confusing. Its a great start though and im sure that the story will be better when your finally done with it.

Niice, I enjoyed it Ryan. The diologue was the strongest part of your story. I've got the same criticisms as kevin and rafi along with explaining that force plotting in the middle. I wasnt sure if it was robotox or not.Ii also think you could describe robotox and Gary Jackson a little more. Like some cheesy cape or something for robotox and maybe make fun of a lame fashion trend that exists today for Gary Jackson or something. Keep up the good work.
