The PPC Posting Board - Latest posts

Are there any things, threads, that we’ve done before that we could do again? (Onetime or many times.)

The Sunflower’s Witness is setting up a temple to Makes-Things—and he does NOT want to be worshiped.

—Ls has a plotbunny!

For the plagiarism, and the fact that the first chapter is just a list, which is against Ff.net rules.

(It also contains the misspellings “gardian” and “beggining.”) —Ls

I liked the personalities you have. Should be interesting to see them work together.

—Ls

Nice to see you again.

Oh. That fic. hides behind a pillow

I’ve heard of it (via TvTropes) and I do agree that it is at least a Bleepfic. To have a Legendary, you need at least 100 hits in last year, and it must be five years old. (I think that’s the exact requirements, you can check on the wiki.) Not sure if it fits either of those...

—Ls is not reading this monstrosity.

So, I'm back, and I now possess knowledge of Dipper Goes to Taco Bell. Long story short, I think it qualifies for Legendary Bleepfic status. Link (take plenty of Bleeprin with you) Is there already a mission for it, or do somebody's agents need to be tortured?

Give it up for the Fairy Godfathers!

...I think it had something to do with the word “productive”, as it was “productiva” during the Esperanto phase.

However, I would like to point out that M-T is the most important human in the history of the PPC (from an in-universe point of view). So maybe he is the PPC’s God—and he resurrected himself!

(Also, don’t let Luxury know about “fertile” either.)

—Ls, amused

I noticed that you haven’t posted before, Pepekyky, so welcome aBoard!

This just in: according to conspiracy-theory word association "logic," Makes-Things was secretly God all along! {X D

I still think it's fun seeing how much ground we've covered at a glance, but I guess with the KB page split into multiples anyway, we don't really have that. And if people are having trouble editing the pages, we should try to alleviate that.

I really like nuts and granola on yogurt and Greek yogurt, but I can’t tell the difference so take my words with a grain of salt.

The Sunflower Official is now “Executive Sunflower”, the Sub Rosa is now “La Sab Rosa”, Luxury is now “beautiful” (don’t tell her) and Makes-Things is “fertile”.

Some of those I get, but the last one...just...what?!?

—Ls

I propose:

1. Keep the Killed Badfic pages, but for continua that have their own pages, link to the Missions in This Continuum section of the continuum page.
2. List basic fic info along with mission info on continuum pages.
3. Keep fic summaries, especially if the fic is deleted and we can't find an archive link.
4. Remove editorial commentary unless there's no other record accessible.

How's that for a compromise? Doing it that way, we might at least be able to go back to just one Killed Badfic list.

~Neshomeh

Could we have the continuum links just be one link, to the appropriate section of the Killed Badfic page? That way we don’t have a bunch of unnecessary continuum pages.

Still delete unnecessary editorial commentary.

—Ls totally ships doctorlists.

Because if so, I think it’d be worthwhile. It’s not sporkable, as it’s just canon with names changed.

I’m not sure how, but you can report it.

I admit they may not have much clerical value, but you have to admit, they're kind of fun, right? Seeing how many different continua have seen mission action, and how represented each one is? Plus, as Shirayuki said, we would have to make continuum pages for a bunch of minor ones that may never see much PPC action again. (Pusheen the Cat, You Are Umasou, etc.) We've been pushing against making pages for such minor continua the last few years, but I suppose if the community doesn't mind it so much, we can start doing so?

I'm definitely in favor of ditching the editorial commentary, which is subjective anyway, and only arguably necessary on entries where the original story and mission are both dead links.

—doctorlit/lists OTP

There are continua with too few missions to warrant their own pages (many having only one each), and I'd support keeping killed badfic lists in order to keep track of fic names and reduce the chances of overwriting other people's missions.

For those who may be unaware, Go-Gurt is allegedly yogurt that is low in fat, packaged in tubes as a spoon-free snack for children, that was invented in the nineties. The only acceptable way to eat it is frozen, because otherwise it's an insipid flesh-pink* slime that only gets more disgusting the more you drool as the edges of the plastic tube irritate your mouth while you try to suck on it without violating any public indecency laws.

* I'm pretty sure only the strawberry and strawberry-banana flavors really exist. Canada claims to have peach, but that's even worse. I vaguely remember a blue one, but it's the sort of blue you can tell is still flesh-pink underneath.

Frankly, it's exactly the sort of thing the Inconvenience Store should sell, with or without the Bleep. {= D
