I just glanced in the Scripts/random_encounters file and the caseyconnelly.scr looks like a good, slightly branching encounter to use as a template. Just copy it and delete out all the stuff in between.
I have a few extra stuff going on in mine, like I have the "Include Scripts/Styles.inc" which is just a bunch of colors to use for people. That is on each line you might see it start with "gt" which sets the color. I have "gt" and "gt2" defined for 'general tease' 1 and 2, basically the people i'm not planning on doing a lot of story with that don't need their own font.
I also have a template I use to start the encounters also but for some reason I can't attach it. I think the code preview is messed up but here it is anyway. The flags I set aren't really that important, was just doing it to be uniform in case i ever did have a reason to keep track of whom you've failed with and all that.
