The PPC Posting Board - Latest posts

Oh, I wasn't really waiting. I just saw that there was a whole sharding series of badfic in the Great Mouse Detective fandom, and got a little po'ed. You do not mess with my childhood like that.

There is a link to the chatroom on the wiki, and if you have an IM service you're welcome to add me if you'd like to ask more questions without constantly waiting on the board. Fairladypsyche on AIM, YIM, and that with @hotmail.com for MSN. Gtalk is my username here with @gmail.com added to it, which is also my email if you're curious.

I second July, save for the bit about the chat, because I haven't touched a chat room in years. But she's right; the only times you don't feel like 'one of us' is when you're angsting about that very issue. The solution is extremely simple: stop. You'll find that everything gets easier. It's not as though anyone here doesn't like you.

I've noticed, when reading PPC missions, that sometimes the agents will just point out an error offhand, scribble it down on the charge list, and speak to each other in effective shorthand, which is fun and easy but won't really help confused and not-so-good-yet writers understand why. On the other hand, sometimes the writer of the mission swill make an effort to have the agents explain the problem/error as well as possible solutions (without being so obvious as to 'turn to the audience' and talk directly; it still has to be in character for the agents' dialogue), which can indeed be very helpful, and is far more direct, without being a preachy speech.

As for your first question - I'd say it depends entirely on who does the reading. I was already a nitpicky fanatic before I found the PPC, and I don't personally know anyone who's read it and then begun a crusade to save fanfic, but I don't see why it can't convince people to care, only that I haven't seen it myself.

I've never seen Doctor Who, but I know both Star Trek and Star Wars, so I'll give the first two a shot. Cheers :)

Well, perhaps they could still be friends?

Sadly, no. She's actually from an unfinished piece of original fiction I've been working on in fits and starts over the past month or so.

...that Amelia is from the World of Warcraft? My current agent pair is from that continuum and they would love the company.

Fantastic. Thanks for getting back to me so quickly.

You are allowed to claim before getting permission, just can't publish PPC stuff before getting permission.

It is highly suggested you read everything you can get your hands on PPC-wise before asking for permission or writing anything so you have a good idea of what's been done before and what hasn't and so on.

Of course, you can't read everything, but it's fun.

I was looking at the Unclaimed Badfic page on the Wiki, and saw that there's a series of The Great Mouse Detective badfics. Would it be possible to pre-claim those fics, given that I don't have permission yet? The Great Mouse Detective is one of my most favorite Disney movies of all time, and I'd greatly relish slaying the 'Sue that dares to mess with it. I'm not asking for Permission to begin writing; I just want to know if I can reserve the right to claim these 'fics.

Thanks! I can't wait to write them. It's going to be awesome.

Yes, the titles I snagged from the other fanmixes are deliberate, simply because they fit so well. As for the title, I'm not sure. I'm all for suggestions, and feel free to add it to the Wiki.

I like your agents' theme songs. I look forward to meeting them.

Does it have a title? And, are the repeated tracks deliberate? And, do you want to add it to this page, or should I?

That's why it didn't work.

And I'm a ditz for not posting the link. My apologies.

I've made my own PPC fanmix, complete with liner notes. Just wanted to share it with you.

Oh, and if you're wondering who Amelia and Ian are (their themes are listed in the liner notes), they're my future Agents. I've got their basic bios and stuff already written up, 'cause I'm weird like that...

I present the Doctor Who crossover series by Phantazm. The characters are actually in-character, which is a good sign. Vader is honestly Vader-y, the Klingons are definitely Klingon, and the Doctor is actually acting like himself.

WARNING: I am currently unsure as to my ability to seperate mediocrefic from goodfic, so don't get your hopes up too much.

It's "continua," only one U. {= )
