Deviation Actions
On February 4th (Sunday), #Uncreativity will be hosting the Uncreativity Experiment.
The object of this activity is to get a group of people together to retype books of poetry word for word in the chatroom.
Participants may enter the room at any time on February 4th. Once in the room, all participants should type from whatever book of poetry they have chosen and may do so at their leisure. Hellos and sidechat will not be tolerated if they become a repeated offense.
The results of the Uncreativity Experiment will receive a limited posting time and the location of the final copy will be presented in a news article following the experiment.

The Uncreativity Experiment Ends
On February 4th, a group of people got together in #Uncreativity and retyped poems from random books.
Each poem overlapped the other, the lines combined, and some sort of epic nonsense emerged.
Or at least that's what one would think would happen. Some sort of epic nonsense did emerge, but there were also eerie moments in which two or more poems merged and formed something entirely new. Sometimes these new poems were even better than the poems from which they were created.
