Very good chapter, Dupin. Again, I liked my role as a kind teacher.

Excellent! I was just starting to wonder when on earth she was going to find the ticket, and she did, in a very unexpected manner.
‘Kimia-‘ the note began, and which Kimia thought was an appropriate way to begin it,’
Hahaha. Great line.
Edit: But it was never explained that one of them was fake! All five of them are found, and then Miss Antenora mysteriously gives a sixth one to Kimia? Which of the previous five are fake? And why don't we know yet? Aaugh. I detest suspense. Write more soon!
And why Romeo and Juliet. I mean of all the Shakespeare plays I've read (which isn't actually that many, but oh well), that was the worst. And yet they invariably make you read it in school. How annoying.

How annoying. Because its the most popular of them all. Nice one, Dupin. Heh, Antenora gave it away. Luckily for Kimia, I'm not her teacher.

Macbeth is much better. I love Macbeth, I really do. I'm afraid the same can't be said about Romeo and Juliet. And I believe most people who read the two will prefer Macbeth (or at least, most of the people I know did.)
Also, mine better not be the fake ticket. That would suck...I really want to get into that Snicket factory!

I prefer Hamlet, myself.
Good chapter, and I can't wait to see where a sixth ticket came from.

Out of the two, I perfer Romeo and Juliet and think that some people would like it better if it weren't so popular. Though I think theres considerable reason for it to be popular.
I don't know if I said nice chapter this chapter or not. Nice chapter.

Nice chapter. And the chapter before was good too, but I think I forgot to post after I read it. That was very nice of Antenora.

Great, George. And yes, the fake ticket better not be SetnicK's.

There is no fake ticket! George has said before that there will be 6 people to enter the Factory. I mean, when you were reading GoF, you didn't think "Harry?! omfg Which Champion is the fake?!" did you?
Anyway, loffly chapter. I want Winnie as my teacher! And I love my character! : D And also, do I detect Saskia-ness when there was that "End of. ... END OF!" thing? Once again, <3

But in the prologue...there are only five tickets.
And a brief summary of Romeo and Juliet:
Romeo: I love you! Juliet: I love you! Both: No one must know! *secret relationship* Both: We must get married!
*Juliet is sleeping* Romeo: Aaugh, Juliet, you're dead! *kills self* *Juliet wakes up* Juliet: Aaugh, Romeo, you're dead! *kills self* ---finis---
It's just so pointless.

But it's pretty. And almost sweet in its simplicity.
Most plots suck if you boil them down to a few sarcastic sentences. Anyway I think its more the things that are said that make it good rather than the actual plot.

But in the prologue...there are only five tickets. Did you see the title of chapter four? ‘In which it is unknown whether curiosity killed the cat, and how the printing agency made such a blunder.’ The printing gency obviously printed six copies by accident. All six golden pages are legitimate, and it would be enormously cruel to pick one kid at random and say they can't go because only five are allowed to go.

And, you'll notice here that the following was said when releasing the cast list: These are the six (yes, six!) winners of the golden pages So, yes, five were intended, but six were released, and all are going.

Oh. *hits head* I can't believe I didn't notice that. That's the second time today that I've done that.
And I love the Chapter titles, by the way. They're excellent. I guess I didn't pay much attention to this one, though...I was reading it in a hurry. Perhaps that's also why I was so confused about the golden page thing.
