Branching Teases

I just started my first tease in the Editor. It's first person, narrated by a woman. Early in the story, she'll be presented with 3 alternatives. Is there a way to do that in the Editor, or do I need to make it a Flashtease?

If so, please point me to the instructions and requirements for a Flashtease.

Thanks,

michele

I for one would highly recommend a flash tease, or even better - an offline tease using either TeaseMe or GuideMe.

Personally I'd go for TeaseMe since GuideMe is rather too beta still.

Writing a tease for TeaseMe is a lot easier than any of the alternatives in my opinion and gives you a lot more options and control as a bonus.

To add branches to a regular tease, you indicate which page number the user must jump to; the user must key the page number manually in the URL to jump to that page.

Here's an example of branching in the tease "Interactive denial! So many ways to be destroyed...so little time!" by Cerebus:
