I'm going to be really sad if you guys chased her off and ruined it for everyone else.

Why?

I don't understand the entertainment value in a story that is so fraught with errors. Why the interest in a story that not only is fiction but is not even based on a real campus?

I am not bashing all recruitment stories... just the ones that are not true, yet the writer won't own up to that.

For the same reason that people read fiction books.

Exactly.

And come on, you can't honestly believe that every recruitment story posted here is free from exaggeration and embelishment. I doubt ANY story in this forum is completely "true."

It's really just a question of waiting a day or two to post your critiques. You're welcome to point all this out once it's over. The deal is that some of the stories REALLY were that entertaining, like seriously ridiculously entertaining, but we never got to the end.

And maybe it's just me, but objective realism isn't ever really the point in retro-recruitment stories. It's about narrative structure and enough detail to string us along.
