Small Edit: Just going to put a cross on all the scenes you guys have posted to show me which ones have been done in case I forget.
The first memoir is on Kongregate now. This is proof I put it there. You can see it here:

Check this out. darkkenia sent me a PM about this. http://www.kongregate.com/games/SoleSo ldier/memoir-text-adventure. Now Memoir 1 is all over then net. I have no control over that but thankfully most keep my NG name in the credits and don't pretend they made it. But the guy who posted it on kongregate "SoleSoldier" is really playing the part. Here's some of the things he(or she) has said for your enjoyment:
"So did you like this game (Kinda?) It was my first game. Also, your name depends on your stats Also your gender. (Should i make a sequel?)"
Nope. The name you choose has no impact on the stats.
"Erugh, big delay.. More homework coming up along with projects. Might delay the sequel till march."
I'm a little confused by this. Is he waiting on me to make the sequel or going to make his own? I do doubt this because he forgot to take my name off the credits which leads me to believe he doesn't know how to use flash.
Oh if you are reading this SoleSoldier. I'm totally putting you in the credits of memoir 2. And one more thing, thanks for giving me a boost in revenue. You're awesome.
Update (8th Jan 10). Seeing as Memoir 1 broke 100,000 views on NG not so long ago I feel like letting you guys in a few new info. Although I don't think it's a good idea because I'm over hyping up a flash game for god's sake. So far I put in a save load system because if I'm right it'll take far too long to finish a game in one sitting. I've been coming up with what the mall is going to be like. At the moment I plan to have 10 different shops and I've come up with a total of 60 items you can buy with more to come. The first memoir had 7 items you could buy. Because the game should last ages I need more scenarios posted and so far all of them have been great.
Updated again (29th December) with a newer image. I've made the menu much nicer than it was before. I finished a basic character creator for males. You can see the result of a randomly created character from the stats on the left. What I want to know is if it's good looking or an eye sore.
Updated: Have a new image. In between making scenes I'm trying to make the game look prettier. Doesn't look like much now but it will look a lot more shinier.
I've procrastinated a little but I've got on with Memoir 2. The prototype is doing pretty well. Now I'm focusing on the scenes. This is where the many readers of my news posts (yes all 5 of you) can come in. The first Memoir had scenes that were blatant rip off some of the scenes in Alter Ego because thinking this stuff up is harder than you might think.
Now I'll try to keep this short as possible. Below are the list of events you can do in the game. The ones in italic are ones where you can come up with scenes. It shouldn't be too long and you can have a multiple choice question (only 3 questions). Keep in mind some questions rely on how high or low a certain statistic is (see bottom of page what statistics mean). You can post many scenes as you want and I'll put the best ones in the game. Of course you'll be credited with your username in the corner of the scene. Like a collab. I'll fill in the blanks (like the script of each scene) Post it like the example below but it doesn't need to be exactly like this.
EXAMPLE START
University
Scenario: There is a party in the next dorm but you're meant to be studying for a test tomorrow.
Multiple choice (1):
Option 1: Continue studying (+10 int).
Option 2: Go to the party and cram afterwards (+5 int +2 friends)
Option 3: Go to the party and go straight to bed afterwards
if cha > 55 = (+4 friends)
else (+1 friends)

STATS
Stats and their descriptions are below (each stat is in between 0-100):
Str (Strength): How strong you are. 0 = Weakling 100 =Body Builder
App (Appearance): How good looking you are. 0 =Ugly 100 =Beautiful
Ath (Athletics):Whether you're thin or fat. 0 =Bulimic 100 =Obese
Cha (Charisma): How well you do in social situations. 0 =Social Outcast 100 =Life of the party
Int (Intelligence):How smart you are. 0 =Retarded 100 =Genius
Friends: The amount of friends you have can let you into certain scenarios. If you have 0 friends then you are unable to do even the most basic events.
Happ (Happiness): How happy you are. Do not let this get too low. If you're "suicidal" then you better do something that makes you happy. If you go below 0 then you commit suicide thus ending your game.
HP (Health): Minor and/or Major illnesses will bring this stat down (if you want to know what the minor/major illness are they're random events. A minor illness is a cold and a major one is something like cancer or a broken leg. Only very rarely can you get illnesses through scenes). If the HP stat goes below 0, the game ends.
That's all. I assure you I am doing some work like coming up with my own scenes. I'll post a slightly new picture. There are only minor additions in this one. If you have any ideas/suggestions or questions then feel free to post. If you don't understand anything I've said (I don't blame you) then ask me.
