The PPC Posting Board - Latest posts

While I wasn't eager to throw a party last year, this time it's different! Bring on the Anti-Lustin Cake and Punch (I also have a supply of Anti-Lustin ice cream, but I recommend it only for those who aren't to troubled by the prospect of C*******n flashbacks)!

*sneaks off to confiscate every shotgun in the country*

Nice story!

There goes my morning...

I'd break out the shotgun by way of argument, but I am too distracted by the sudden realisation that there are only four more posts to sort out and then the fic journal is done and I can sleep.

THE HYPHEN WILL LIVE ON IN OUR HEARTS!

Don't worry. While you and I draw breath, the hyphen lives on!

~Neshomeh, who Believes.

So, we've got two shiny new dreamwidth journals set up, one for fanfic (gmtaslash.dreamwidth.org), and one for missions (rc45.dreamwidth.org). Both imported fine, although now we're faced with the lengthy task of going through and deleting everything irrelevant. Also, the amount of a href links that will need fixing is phenomenal.

There is one thing you (general you) could do to help if you've got time: there are close to sixty mission links, plus various interludes, MSTs, AHAIRQL matches and the like, listed on the wiki that all point to the now-locked lj. All of these links will need changing to point to the appropriate shiny new dreamwidth entry. Said entries should be easy to find, since everything that was imported was locked and we're only unlocking the missions (although they're not all unlocked yet - Trojie's currently working her way through them). So, if anyone's got some time to kill and fancies a spot of wiki editing... *puppy eyes*

Pages I can think of off the top of my hand that will have links to be changed:
Trojanhorse; Paddlebrains; Oscar Henson; Iza; Stevius; Veridian Green; Marsha; Katie Cray; Gypsy; Lasa; Montbretia Tornquist.

*disappears to continue the laborious process of sorting the new fic journal*

The hyphen is on its way out, dear.

Oh my GOOOOOOOOOOOD!
I cannot escape the BEEEAAAK!

It's all "flocked", hmmm? :P

I have a similar problem with my MSTing of a fic involving lemony bits with an underage character. If it was illegal to do that someone would have told me so by now, and given that A) the characters are blatantly fictional, B) I didn't write the fic in question and I said so, C) the reason I'm quoting it is to point out how bad the writing is and I made it abundantly clear that that was the reason, D) nobody arrested Stephen King for that scene in "It", I REALLY don't think it'd have any legal repercussions other than possibly "oi, stop copy-pasting other peoples' work" and given that it's a fanfic even that doesn't really apply, but I'd still like to keep it away from people who would give me funny looks over it, like my student counsellor.

No, they can't *do* anything about it, but it would make me look bad in the eyes of the old men that I have to work with and need to learn from.

I'm making sure people in RL don't know about my LJ (well, there's a guy in the scifi club at uni I'm thinking of introducing to the PPC, but he's nice, so ...) for the same reason.

Would it really get you any worse trouble than some funny looks, though? I don't really see how what you do in your spare time is his business.

Thanks. I like Skyfire's ability to understand Stormsong, at least in the spoken sense.

welcome to the PPC.

nice. so, what do you think of skyfire and stormsong? if i may ask? and hope you have fun here.

congrats. man.. I can't wait to see what finally happens. thanks.

No need for confuzzlement, Sedri dear. Nothing's disappearing from the lj, it's just all being flocked. And since Trojie's got you friended, that means you can still get at everything. See, it'll work fine.

I guess I didn't realize how popular the PPC was.
*shakes hand*

I'm one of them, too.

I was all confusled. :)
