I tried the online version of Write or Die just now, on Kamikaze Mode and using the “evil” grace period, but wow. It was nowhere near as evil as I expected. ;) I seriously thought “evil” would be like “stop typing for one second and your words will be erased,” but it was actually ten seconds.

Now … that doesn’t mean ten seconds won’t be kind of alarming when I’m actually trying to write for real and my brain won’t respond. But when I’m totally pulling words out of my butt to reach a random word count because I’m testing a tool … well, then ten seconds isn’t much at all. ;D
