Hello! Have a seventeen foot long, multicolored, wool, knit scarf (curly wig not included), and a bag of jelly babies.

Please use them IRresponsibly.

Fair winds!

Enjoy this collector's edition tin of Spam as a welcoming gift.

Welcome to the board! Have some chocolate and enjoy your stay!

Welcome to the Board! Please deposit your sanity in the provided receptacle. *indicates bucket marked "Warg Fodder"* You shan't need it here. Also, here are some Magic Pants.
...I say "iunno" too. Interesting.

Welcome, welcome! By Adams, do you mean Douglas Adams?
Have a pet cat, you may name her whatever you wish.

Here, one of the Hypometric Weapons from Revelation Space 'Verse. (Note, only use in extreme circumstances, the danger to yourself is usually not worth the risk)

Before I fade back on to TV Tropes and the PPCWiki, I'll say this: I really need to work on the name.

Catch you all later!

Here, have a mechanical dagger that automatically tracks Sues and kills them! Kinda like a homing missile.

Feed it only Generic Meat.

Welcome to the PPC. Since you have an eclectic taste in music, have an eclectic guitar. I think it will suit you.

You never know when you will need a pineapple. Treat it with absolute seriousness.

Unlike everything else around here ;)

Nice to meet you. Welcome!

*pokes*

It's traditional. {= )

Now, the aforementioned links. The first one, of course, is to the Original Series. If you haven't read it, that is the first thing you should do, since it's what this whole glorious panoply is based on.

Second, if you are so inspired that you want to write your own PPC spin-off, you need to find out how to get Official Permission to do so.

After that, there are several pages on the PPC Wiki and elsewhere that contain useful and important information. In order of sensible reading-ness, as Sedri says, they are:

* The PPC Board Constitution, because it's Da Rules;
* The Board FAQ if you're not quite sure how to use this quaint old thing;
* The Guide to the PPC,
** FAQ for Newbies,
and eventually the
** Mission Writing Guide, written by Sedri with support from the Board.

You may also eventually be interested in Trojie's Slash-Sporking Guide if that's your thing.

If you wish to edit the wiki at any point, you should definitely check out my new Editing Tutorial.

And, of course, you should check out as many PPC spin-offs as possible. The Complete List of PPC Fiction and the List of Killed Badfic are good places to start.

And that is quite enough to be going on with. Welcome!

They're very 'splody. And they shoot sparks when on fire!

Hello, and welcome to the Board. Here's a Frying Pan of DOOM^tm and a freshly baked batch of quite yummy vegan chocolate-oatmeal cookies. I'm sure someone will be around with the Official List of Links for you sometime soon. In the meantime, enjoy those cookies!
