  1. Which PPC mission which you have either written or helped co-write, if any, are you most proud of? And

    2. Which is your absolute favorite mission published by anyone except yourself?

    I figured since the end of this godawful year is nigh, I'd take a bit of an informal census, so yeah.

    For me personally, while I do enjoy most if not all of my missions, my personal Crowning Moment of Awesome as a PPC writer will always be my very first posted mission, "Connecting the Dots" (I can't do links on mobile, sadly :c). Not just for sentimental reasons but also because it represents a momentous occasion in my history as a writer. Up to this point I had never really published any story which would've been added to the official continuity of any long-lasting community, nor had I gotten a beta reader for any of my writing. This mission changed all of that. On top of this, it also represents closure for my turbulent history on the Internet, sort of - I felt I owed it to myself to spork my old shame, to atone not only as a writer, but as a person as well. (I mean, I was a horribly immature and reckless @ssh@t when I co-wrote that fic in the first place, so...) Plus, I got two awesome agents out of it, so I suppose there's that, too!

    My favorite mission written by someone else is, of course, "Ring Child" by Neshomeh and Tungsten Monk. The character interaction between two amazing agent teams was fantastic to read, and their antics and arguing more than made up for how utterly horrifying the original fic was. Plus, that mission is the reason why Ficubi (and E.V.L. by extension) exist! Hilarious read, great pacing, and a solid ending, complete with Bad End taking up half of DoSAT.
