As a new member, I was unable to join in the badfic game. A second round would allow myself and any other new members to possibly join in and gain some publicity. (Good or bad....depends how you look at it. :3)
In the end, I support a second round.
The annual PPC Badfic Game has finally dropped off the front page, and posting had died right down towards the end. That is usually the signal to post a Closing Ceremonies thread to discuss the whole thing.
The thing I'm not sure about is whether it slowed down because everyone had posted everything they wanted to/had their fill of that breed of fun/run out of things to say - or because it was getting further down the page, and people don't look down there. Virtually every thread stops getting posts below about halfway down the front page, and even I, who actually look down there regularly, tend not to post in them when they're low down.
So: any objections to closing the game down? If there's lots of people who want to keep going, this can be the new thread. If not - what did you enjoy? What did you cringe at? And most importantly, who were you?JayBird hS fanficWorld Admin
Welcome fools! I have decided to grace your contest with my presanse! I record tales of my adventures for the touhou weaboos, but I have stepped into the world of the PPC!
(New guy ChibiChen here, taking my hand at it now that I have time. Little late, but better late than never!)
I could still write the sequel The Roots of Evil, in which I exorcize the first exorcists who exorcized an Author Wraith, while Androiaavata adores my gentlemanly badassery? (Don’t steal this idea, it’s trademarked and copyrighted by me!)
Unfortunately this has to wait until next year. I don’t have the time just now. I need to tame educate Androia. She behaved quite bad these last days.
The adoring part, I mean. Exorcizing evil exorcists may be fun, though.
But you should give me more to do and to say. You cannot announce me as the other half of the most badass agent team and then make me a bit character.
Look, concrit! I can do it.
Androia
I'm back.
You can't hide forever, Notebook Where I Was Writing Glitter Trek: The Next Generation. You may try to shirk your duties, but I swear to the Gods I will find you. And then you shall meet...your pencil!
I found my notebook. You tried to hide in my music bag, but you didn't know I needed my sheet music to play violin. I have foiled your heinous plot!
Does this mean welll have more glitter trek soon?? Please say yes!!!!!!!!
So excited!!!

((And this is Ailavyn Siniyash, by the way. Dazz makes me cringe.))
((Such as the Jay/Acacia. hS did it seriously and succeeded--I did it extremely not-seriously and succeeded in melting my brain. There's different ways of success, I suppose...))
((This is DawnFire, if anyone isn't aware for some reason. I'm fairly sure I let that cat out of the bag long, long ago.))
((~DF))
((And yours was good for a cringe. Congrats!))
((-Aila))
((I thoroughly enjoyed it.))
((Thanks! Glad to know :) ))
((Ooh, are we actually calling it Byrdtree? I ask because as far as I know I came up with that. Er, mainly because Jaycacia and Thornbyrd were already taken, but still. Fun!))
((*scuttles off to write more badfic-type-things in between watching Firefly and doing homework*))

((... oh dear Iluvatar. I think I have a gimmick for a new thread...))
Glitter Trek is awesome!!! I hope you find your notbook sooonnnn!!!!

If there is a continuation, I think that I may have to write another chapter. Perhaps even a few more chapters. I have a few ideas on where to take Verce Jumper, including a bit outside of the PPC universe... I mean verce.
However, treating this as a non-continuation, I will go ahead and reveal some facts about Jumping In. Oh, I suppose I should say that I was xX-VerceMaster-Xx, but honestly, I think I was a little obvious.
Jumping In has a sad story behind it. Jumping In, much as it sucks, is the original origin story for Jumper. While aspects of it are purposefully altered to make it even worse, a sad number of plot points in the story were from the actual origin.
The Library was almost exactly as described, for the exact reasons I stated in the story. How did he get it? No idea. Why does he have it? Because he can and it is cool. The original idea was for the Library to be his 'hub,' from where he travels across his sector of the multiverse using the books around him. This would allow for me to write stories with Jumper without interference of the PPC, as they cannot contact him inside his library. Handy, no? As bad as it is, I may have the Library be his yet. Not as powerful as I had it here, but a similar idea. We will see.
Jumper's writing in LoTR, correcting the books? Yeah... The idea at the time was to show that the worlds he traveled to were different from the Word Worlds of the PPC. While they are, and I know how to present this difference much better now, this was not the way to do it. Does not speak well on his ability to protect the canons when he views the original work as incorrect. The part of him being Tom Bombadil was not part of the original though; this was just for me to rant on how much I dislike Tom while showing that Verce Jumper does care for the canon. See, Verce is not bad, because even though Tom is a useless diversion from the plot and serves no purpose for the story, Verce will make the sacrifice and look like the not-god for the sake of the original story. Agent material right here folks. Oh, while we are on that sequence, Jumper actually did steal a sonic screwdriver from the Doctor. You see, Jumper has a bit of a curiosity about fantastic items, scientific or magical in nature, so he takes them and tries to 'examine' them. See, personality flaw!
I originally thought that Jumper would fall into the PPC because of a stray plothole in mid Jump. Perhaps it came during the Blackout? No idea, and I have found a much better way of introducing him. I just have to finish this darn Marvin and Printworthy mission first, then in the next one... Well, you'll see.
Now, for Verce standing in the halls screaming, "EVERYTHING IS WRONG!!!" This is a point that I am still going to use, though much calmer. And less hammy. As I have mentioned, Jumper is from a different sector of the Multiverse, and during his travels, he began to 'feel' the nature of the world he was in. Not reality-sensitive per-se, more just started noticing the more subtle differences between worlds. As such, when he enters HQ, he complains of the world feeling 'wrong.' HQ, for him, is a hybrid of the Word Worlds and the organic worlds that he is more used to. It manifests for him as a conflicting feeling in his head, giving him an almost constant headache.
Nothing else I can really think of to comment about that story for now really. I regrettably have missed out on a lot of stories, so before I give my thoughts on others stories, I will have to run by fanficWorld and catch up. If you have any questions on this story, just ask, and I'll be happy to respond.
Oh, one last thing. Jumper, Marvin, Printworthy, and Sarah (Jumper's future partner) will be MSTing this story at some point, with additional chapters added to it. Fun times are ahead.
I haven't finished my first story yet, due to a variety of reasons that gave me little time for writing, and I have a second in the works(possibly). I'd like to at least get the first finished before the Badfic Games wrap up for this year. I could post the last chapters on the second page, but that would be no fun. Nobody would read them.

This past month has been more crazy than expected, and it doesn't look to be getting any better in the near future.
So, I am going to hang up my badfic hats and retire Ponyrella96 and D4rkm0k until next year. Sorry, JayBird, D4rkm0k won't be able to write that chapter he promised you.

That is, I still have several stories that I'm working on and would like to post. That hasn't happened yet because I've had holidays. Not sure if that applies to anyone else, but...I'm in favor of continuing, and was actually about to ask you about this :)
So yes. That's my vote. I'm still working on stories as of today and yesterday, and would love to be able to post them this year instead of saving them up for the next Badfic Game.
So...round two, anyone?

I'd mostly just like to see what people come up with... although I might have it in me to post yet another chapter...
As a new member, I was unable to join in the badfic game. A second round would allow myself and any other new members to possibly join in and gain some publicity. (Good or bad....depends how you look at it. :3)
In the end, I support a second round.
Welcome to the Board! And here, have some Swiss Bleepolate and some Gummyblee Pens, in honor of the Badfic Game...
I definitely like the idea of seeing what some of our newest members come up with!

:D
Free stuff, and story times! I like it here already!
Nice too meet you too.
Since I didn't get to your newbie thread, this seems like a good place to put your gift.
Have a robot ghost in a jar! If you ever need any mechanical creatures possessed and converted to your side, just aim the jar at the offending being and pop off the top! This may seem like a situational gift, and it sort of is, but it's always best to be prepared for the unlikeliest of scenarios in the PPC.
Just make sure you stay on good terms with the little guy. You wouldn't want an angry possessed robot, because those have a nasty habit of seeking vengeance and attacking people.
