On a technical note...

I return! With a reapplication! by kgarrett on 2008-12-15 06:18:00 UTC Reply

Hey all. Yeah, I know I disappeared for a while, sorry, but it was for a good reason. I've been really busy with real life stuff, especially school and wrestling, but I also shifted my focus to finishing the bios and writing sample so I could reapply for Permission. Now that those are finished, not only can I resume normal activity, but reapply. Here are the links to my agents' bios, my writing sample, and my intended first target:

http://rc5593.webs.com/agentbios.htm - Bios.

http://rc5593.webs.com/prologuewritingsample.htm - My writing sample. Sorry, it's shorter than I wanted it to be, but I think it's still good.

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2977058/1/HaloHalosin_Space - The first badfic I intend to do a mission on.

Some notes: I'm aware of the typo in my site's title, but there is no way for me to fix it. I was making the site at two in the morning, I was exhausted, and my finger slipped. As far as I'm aware, this is impossible to fix, I'm sorry. I've tied it into an actual misspelling of the term on the RC's door in an attempt to make it into a running joke. Also, hS (I know you might not be the PG who sees this, but still, it's a general "if you read this" thing), if you have a google talk or are on Skype at some convenient time, I need to speak with you. I've meant to issue a private apology (not just "please don't smite me, Your Highness" grovelling or whatever, but an actual, sincere, apology) for what happened during July's badfic reading, if possible and if you're willing to speak with me (I would not be surprised if you were not, but I hope you'll at least give me the chance to make up for it), but I just thought I'd ask what time would be convenient.

Right, let's see. by Huinesoron on 2008-12-18 21:04:00 UTC Reply

Zodfang, I have to confess, makes me laugh. So that's good. I note he's a bit redundant occasionally when he's talking ("Apparently dere aren’t exactly many of us ’ere, from wot I’s ’eard"), but that may or may not be a problem.

What might be a problem is that the story you want to PPC a) is very short and b) looks like a parody or troll. Still, technically those can fall to the Floaters, just like anything else can. It's your decision.

I'm going to call it permission granted, and then comment that I very much like the mentions of Mkellin. Hopefully soon you'll find out what happened to him...

Apology already accepted. by Huinesoron on 2008-12-15 12:44:00 UTC Reply

Seriously, you don't need to.

*shrug* Okay. by kgarrett on 2008-12-16 06:49:00 UTC Reply

Just thought I'd extend the offer. Alright, though.

Oh, Glaurung. by Buta no Kaabii on 2008-12-15 08:11:00 UTC Reply

Now you got me curious as to what exactly happened at the badfic reading. *headwall* Why does this always happen to me? *sigh* If it's not the type of thing that you would talk about, that's not a problem. It's strange that this is the type of stuff that makes me want bleeprin, as opposed to badfic... DX

It's private, no offense. by kgarrett on 2008-12-15 08:27:00 UTC Reply

So no, I won't be telling you, no offense. Couldn't if I wanted to. Just something between hS and I. Not that it affects my bid for Permission, I'd hope.

Ah. by Buta no Kaabii on 2008-12-15 08:30:00 UTC Reply

That's fine then. *goes off looking for Bleeprin*

If you open up your pages in the advanced editor and get to the raw HTML (I'm not familiar with freewebs, sorry), the title should be in there- there'll be a lt;head> tag at (or near) the top of the page, and between that and its accompanying </head>, there should be a line that looks like this: <title>Responce Centre 5593 |</title&gt. Fix it there, save the page, and that should solve the problem.

Trying to get the advanced editor up, but how's the rest? (nm) by kgarrett on 2008-12-15 07:14:00 UTC Reply
Oh, I never thought of trying that! by kgarrett on 2008-12-15 07:08:00 UTC Reply

Thanks, I'll do that now and see if it works. That's been frustrating me, because I couldn't figure it out.
