I only got to see this now... Hilarious!

As soon as it finally got to deviate from the original sentence it was just genius all along.

And like somebody already said, this time it was oftentimes the sentences that kind of pushed the story on towards new paths and which made one smile ever wider.

That said, extra kudos to Eönwë's and Lommy's rendering of the Last Supper, Algae's dreamy smoking wizards and Legate's wild cartoon on Gandalf's journeys...

And yes. Thanks to Aganzir for making us meet our deadlines. That is no small feat.

It kind of looked like the Burger King was wearing red and gold, and also the broom suggested Quidditch.

No no, I get that part - I don't get how we got a broom and a golden outfit on the WK in the first place! These things just make the PT way better than a RL Broken Telephone. There the context jut gets muddles because of mishearings, but here some weird additional detail can be picked up on and turned into a whole new burst of weirdness.
