Ah, but nothing says the last poster will actually manage to call out last. Even worse, the moderator who locks the thread might post something like 'Locked', defeating everyone without even trying. Also...
Last!

You have the advantage of winning regardless. After all, no matter who else posts, you will always be @TheLastOne last

Turns out, having people rate your really old comments can be helpful from time to time. I happened to read the nearby chapter, and...

Thank you, corrected.
Really need to follow up on that comment by Grayven.

Just in case anyone is still staring despondently at this thread and wondering when the next update is coming, please consider moving to the new thread in the link above.
From these text-blocks, my suggestions are in ALL-CAPS:
=====
Most Muslims here ARE of the

I'm not sure that any sort of rational arguments that could work here. (I'd delete the underlined text, )
or perhaps:
I'm not aware of any rational arguments that could work here.
=====
neither is having Jarhanpur declare war on INDIA, even
=====
when Rama Khan crossed THE border. (or perhaps "THIS"? or "THEIR"?)
=====
Diana raises her right hand slightly. "How much of his time DO these lessons take?"
=====
Rama Kahn's GAZE is contemptuous.

Without actually quoting the text or at least listing which parts they are from, your corrections are useless, because there is waaay too much story text to search through to find them.
And by quoting I mean:
And by quoting I mean:
highlighting the part of a post you are interested in brings up Quote and Reply options without needing to do the entire post.

Just zis guy, you know?
You might want to do this in the other thread, that Zoat provided a link to (in a quote box) in the post right above yours.
I appreciate the input.
I'm still stumbling about, trying to learn the proper method for responding.
I'd hoped that my timing was close-enough to the time of the original story-posting to make my meaning clear to [Mr.Zoat],
but your method is clearly superior, because it's more time-flexible.
Are there any tricks I need to use, in order to insert multiple-but-disconnected text-highlights in a single posting?
Yeah, I noticed you only had a small number of posts under your belt. New to the board or just a former lurker?
while SV isn't as strict about it as SB, the general rule of thumb is 'don't added to a thread if it's been dormant for over 2 weeks, unless you have something relevant to add.'
As I said (and demonstrated here), by highlighting sections of text, you can 'quote' relevant sections of a post while ignoring the rest, it also includes links back to the post you are quoting from (the upward pointing arrow next to '___ said:' at the top of the quote box), and once a quote is saved, you can 'carry' it/them to a different thread.
Meaning you can quote posts from this thread, post them to the new thread and they will still link back to the posts in this thread.
A little of both.
I'd tried to contribute a long while ago, royally botched it, & not-so-much "Rage-Quit" as-much-as "Embarrassed-Quit". The format for conversational give-&-take here is very different from what I've seen elsewhere, & the ability to erase my 'misteaks' is not as intuitive as what I'd learned in other places.
For example --- I wasn't expecting the "QUOTE"-command to replace the "COPY/PASTE"-commands that I'd known for so long.
In any event, I hope I prove worthy of the patience you all have shown me.
