INPUT ARTICLE: Article: If you are invaded while fighting an enemy you have a little time to defeat it before your opponent can to you, depending on where they are spawned. Don’t get outnumbered or let someone catch you in a bad position.  If you are near a boss door, you can pass through it to end an invasion, then teleport home with a homeward bone. If you want to avoid PVP completely, you can play offline or play through the game hollowed. However you will also lose the opportunity to co-op with other players. Attack with a full combo, but leave yourself stamina to roll. You might be able to trick your opponent into thinking there’s an opening where there isn’t. This can be especially effective with a heavy weapon and light armor. If you can ever get behind an opponent, take the opportunity for a critical strike. It only takes a light attack and does not leave you vulnerable like a parry. Fighting near trees can give you cover from spells. Fighting near cliffs may cause an opponent to inadvertently fall while rolling. Lava is dangerous to everyone - but exciting. Spear users should find narrow spaces to fight. Enemy swords will bounce off walls. Being human is a double-edged sword, allowing for invasions and co-op. Take advantage and bring help to fend off invading players. In Dark Souls there are no rules. All strategies are fair game, especially when you are the invader. This can mean attacking your opponent while they fight someone else or running away to heal if you’re given an opening.

SUMMARY: Know when to run and when to fight. Bait out attacks. Fish for backstabs. Use the environment to your advantage. Summon for help. Do not play by the rules.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: With the pizza stone on the bottom rack of your oven, preheat it to 550 degrees. Using one ball of at a time, lightly dust your dough with flour. Stretch gradually on a flat, floured surface until it is about as big as your pizza stone (typically about 14”). A cutting board, a flat baking sheet, or a peel will work for your surface. A peel is a wide flat tool for your pizza. The front edge is typically tapered so that your pizza can slide easily on and off of it. Once your dough is stretched to the desired size, spread your sauce and add your cheese. Top with the vegetables, meats, and seasonings of your choice. This will be much easier if you’ve properly floured your flat surface. Place the tip of your flat surface on the back of the preheated stone and slide your surface out of the oven so that your pizza is left on the stone. If your pizza seems to stick, try using a back and forth jerking motion to help it. Your pizza will only have to bake for 4-6 minutes in the oven. Watch it carefully and remove it when the crust begin to brown. Remove the pizza by again sliding your flat surface beneath the pizza. Be careful, the pizza will be extremely hot. Let it sit for a couple minutes before cutting to avoid burning yourself. You now have a crispy stone oven-style pizza.

SUMMARY: Preheat your oven. Dust your dough with flour. Top your pizza. Place your pizza on the stone. Bake your pizza. Cut and enjoy.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: To begin finger knitting, you'll first need to take a ball of yarn, and unravel a foot or so of the yarn. You will then place the strand of yarn that you have unraveled between your thumb and pointer finger, with the end of your yarn inside your palm and the rest of the yarn falling over the back of your hand. Hold the yarn in place with your thumb, leaving three inches of yarn or so across your palm. At this point you have wound the yarn around your fingers and pulled the loops over a couple of times. Now, you will repeat the process of looping under and over your fingers and then bringing the bottom loop over the top loop until you have created your desired size for your project. Make sure you continue to push the loops down on your fingers so they don't pop off the top of your fingers.

SUMMARY: Unravel a strand of yarn. Continue knitting until you have achieved the size you desire.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: It is important to keep a careful tally of each player’s scores as you play. Each player should announce his or her score after adding it up and then the score keeper should write it down right away. Premium Squares will alter your word scores, so pay attention to these when you play words. You can only use the bonus from a Premium Square if you laid the tile over that square during the current turn. You cannot incorporate bonuses from Premium Squares that you already counted in a different turn or that were counted by a different player. When adding the bonuses for plays with multiple Premium Squares, add the letter bonuses in before the word bonuses. For example, if you spell a word that has a double letter bonus and a triple word bonus, add the double letter bonus to your total before multiplying the total by three. A bingo is when you use all seven of your tiles to play a word. When this happens, you should add up the total value of your word plus any bonuses gained from Premium Squares and then add 50 points. After all of the players have exhausted their tiles or cannot play any more words, add up each player’s points total. As the score keeper adds the totals, each player should let him or her know the points value (if any) of the tiles he or she has left over. Deduct this value from each player’s points total to determine each player’s final score. After the score keeper has added each player’s scores and deducted the values of any unused tiles, he or she may announce the winner. The person who has the highest score wins the game.  Second place goes to the person with the second-highest score, and so on.

SUMMARY:
Keep score as you go. Watch for Premium Score squares. Get 50 points added to your word score if you get a bingo, also known as a bonus. Add up each player’s scores at the end of the game. Announce the winner.
