On another site someone posted a Round Robin based on someone else's challenge which basically asked for a character to discover that his or her parents were extremely evil, and the character's reaction to it.
I posted my own response, a 100-word drabble with five nightmare parents for one of the characters, and promptly got a review from the guy who had posted the round robin and felt that it didn't meet the terms of the original challenge, and that he'd delete my chapter if I didn't modify it.
So I took another look at the challenge and I pretty much disagree - amongst other reasons, the parents mentioned in my drabble included Hitler, Scrappy-Doo and the US President of your choice - but I really can't be bothered to argue.
So I deleted it from the round robin and posted it as a stand-alone story. Does this seem the best response?
