time planning or outlining. You send in a scene or paragraph and
automatically become the director of the moment. The only guidelines,

writing must be canon. ( If you've seen it on the show or heard
it,then it's
allowed in a scene. Write what you've always seen and emulate the
show. )

We've a full list of medical, EMS, Fire and Police Consultants waiting

This is a play by email fan fiction site which has fans of the 1970's
TV
series Emergency about paramedic/firefighters writing along with real
firemen
and paramedics working in the field to make new episodes of this show
in the
form of a role play game.

One person writes a scene paragraph and another continues where the
first left off.
The final story, which completes at the end of any month, is shown to
all visitors, with
images and music midis crafted to fit what the writers have created.
Nothing is
preplanned ahead of time.

We use just the world as it was seen inside of this TV show.
Television show is the
bible and base and guidelines for any writer/player.

Website has real medical and fire personnel to help writers with
technical aspects,
backgrounds of the tv show itself, paramedic simulators, screensavers,
and an
archive of the entire game to date. 51 episodes are planned to be
created using this
role play project. We are on episode twenty three so far.

Photo gallery highlights players, writers and the images made to fit
the role play
stories being created and how the pictures were made by the website
editors.

All improvisational. Nothing preplanned. Round robin style of writing.
A radio show
highlighted this project in June 2004 and the game founder talks about
the site and
how it works.

610 members to date. 6100 a month unique hits to the 200 page website.

Most members are lurkers, there to read only, but 20 are regular
writers.

Theme is modern firefighting, emergency medicine of the 1970's United
States.

See references to Emergency, the TV series circa 1970-1976. Real TV
show had
187 episodes and six feature length movies at the time of its
cancellation while it
was still in the number one watched spot on NBC.

Hints to the show. Remember Roy DeSoto? Squad 51 and Station 51?
Rampart
Hospital and Dr. Brackett and Dixie the nurse? This is that show.
Gameplay is all
canon to the series. If you remember watching it on your TV set, that
is how it is
written by players on this game.

First twenty seven stories crafted are open to the public for viewing.
Reads like an
online book with images and music.
