[Shudder, squirm, rinse, repeat... Ick.]

Seeing as no one else is speaking up. Mini-Hitokiri it is, then!

...it's not Sueish. A Sue is a character who warps the established rules and story of the universe the story is set in, not a character who has a certain amount of traits.

I don't mean to be rude or ruining anyone's fun, or anything like that, sorry. I'm just really not comfortable with the idea, so I'd rather stay out of it. Besides, I'm writing a ridiculous amount of stuff at once, including like five missions. I'd never actually get to writing the badfic! :P Sorry again.

[By the way, hS, are you going to add FFN's new touches to FanficLand? Involved character listed in the specs, and so on? I've included those details here for you just in case. :) Thanks for starting this again!]

No one would have done anything mean-spirited, you know.

That said, if you want to write about an absolutely evil Agent Sedri going on rampage and torturing your agent's poor, long-suffering self anyway, I don't mind.

More accurately, I would like to make a note before people get really into it that I am not in the least bit comfortable with any of my Agents or character concepts being used in this. I know, it's arrogant to presume that anyone would want to, but I just wanted to make it clear just in case, sorry. Just so that people know I'd really rather not only sit out of this, but not have my characters involved. Hope everyone else has fun, but I wanted to lay this down just to head off the chances of anything happening. Sorry.

I was just saying it doesn't have everything. Sorry.

Apparently not. Well, I can remedy that.

STOP

WRITING

You have NO idea what makes a good story (or even a story). I don't know who ever told you you could write; they lied, big time. Do us all a favor and just STOP.

have some C4 plastic explosives. they might help get rid of the things that keep getting up. you might need blasting caps to set the C4 off. fire won't work on its own. And i have a dragonlace-verse dragonmetal sword. it could cut through your scales. and anything else.

woah. doo, u kno that if u reed thiss backewoulds it gloows blu & read & yello & slitly gren, ittss cooool **clappps**. dos yo hav anyy blu cokies as i rammed oute off tem fiv miuets agoo; anny gud fic ssssseveern out of thre ;~?..

peesss, y wer u gon soo lonb

I panicked ... also "subtly ordering people around" ... okay looking at the definition of subtle on http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/subtle I'm never subtle. I either club things on the head or I leave it alone I would never subtly order anyone around as A) it be wrong and B) I'm as subtle as a 6 mile asteroid if I say something it doesn't have hidden meaning ... But if I appear to be trying to order people around I apologise that's not my intention.
"You're being bossy, rude, and quite unfriendly"not my intention but then I can list the number of friends I Have on one hand. I can accidental insult people in ten different ways with just one word, I'm socially stunted with dozens of psychological issues. Needless to say I either don't say anything or mess up royally when I do.
Footnotes. A way to put in so much info into one point without babbling like an Idiot ... but then I babble in said footnotes and put too many. I'm trying to stop using them but sometimes it's too hard to not use them.
"and not being especially apologetic for the huge spoiler you tossed onto the board for little reason." I'm sorry about that I truly am, when I originally apologised I was half asleep because my cat had decided that I should keep him company (I had to either let him in and have him walk on my face or lock him out and have him meow in his highly annoying whine which is impossible to sleep through). So my apology was probably not up to it so I truly am sorry about the spoilers it was an act of a complete stupidity. I will not do it again.
-Response to Comments on PPC goal(I would quote you but quite frankly I'm too tired to as I type too slowly and have spent half an hour (possiply an hour) typing this so I'm Sorry but I'm not quoting)- Got it, I'll Kill my "THIS NEEDS TO BE DEAD RIGHT NOW" spirit right now ... thats ... sorry my accidental Oxymoron/Hypocritical statement hurt my brain. I adapt my PPC spirit to the right spirit.
So as a newbie who has made dozens of mistakes, Accept this link to the writings of the fanfic author hotpoint http://www.tthfanfic.org/AuthorStories-7284/Hotpoint.htm who I consider the premier BTVS (buffy) and stargate fanfic writer. Hopefully the link makes up for my stupidity but if it doesn't then hopefully the humour of this Doctor who crossover with the BTVS universe will http://www.tthfanfic.org/Series-1465.
But you may have already read all of these fics as they so ... hmmm ... here a link to a rather enlightening BBC documentary http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9dfWzp7rYR4 :).
If none of these make a good apology feel free to rick roll me (that's still popular isn't it?). And you weren't mean JulyFlame, you said what was necessary. Now if you'll excuse me Question Time is on.

A.N.: i know i've been gonn for a long time but I'M back now n with lots of new story n bettr formattin!!!!!!

luv in hQ chappie three!!!

"HIYAH!" screemed brenden as he blasted throo the wall wit his ninja skillz.

Opinions anyone?

We here at Fanfic Land are starting to get a little worried. We haven't seen any of our great writers in the PPC section for quite a while... in fact, it's been a whole year!! Have you all forgotten about us?!

But since we don't hold grudges, we forgive you all. In fact, we'd love to have you back -- or if you're a new writer since last year, we'd just love to have you! So why not come by, show off your creative talents, at Fanfic Land -- The Fanfic You Can't Find Anywhere Else!

((Or, in other words, it's July again, which makes it time for the annual PPC Badfic Game. This is the game where we poke fun at:

1) Badfic authors.
2) Reviewers of badfic authors, be they squealing fangirls, bitter flamers, or whatever.
3) Ourselves and the entire PPC.

We do this, of course, by writing deliberately bad fanfiction of the PPC. The conceit is that an internet archive, Fanfic Land, accepts fanfic of the PPC -- so anything you'd see in LotR, Potterverse, Redwall or whatever shows up in the PPC section.

Unfortunately my coding skills aren't massive, so what we (and 'we' means anyone on the Board -- this game doesn't require Permission or anything else) actually do is post stories and reviews on the Board (in this thread, please, and preferably with reviews all attached to the right stories), and I upload them all onto FfL. And make things like author bios while I do so.

Now, this is all supposed to be fun -- and remember, if you get flamed, it's not real, it's just another aspect of the game -- so enjoy yourselves! It'd help me if people can include a rating, genre and summary on their stories, and an author bio if you aren't a return customer, or want to update yours ;). Plus, remember to pick a badfic author name for yourself -- you can see the sort of things people use on the PPC Section of FfL. Let's see if we can keep the thread entirely in-character.

Enjoy!

hS))

((Oh, and to anticipate a comment from Laburnum, you're probably best off not writing about Stormsong or Skyfire, for copyright reasons. The rest of the PPC, though -- anyone or anything in it -- is available for you to do anything to. Take a look over the past three years' entries if you don't believe me! ~hS))

People take missions they find interesting, not just because they're on the Unclaimed Badfic list on the wiki.

Also, can you stop subtly ordering people around and telling people- mainly Neshomeh- they don't get it? You're being bossy, rude, and quite unfriendly and you're the one not getting it by brushing off requests to stop with the footnotes* and not being especially apologetic for the huge spoiler you tossed onto the board for little reason.

The PPC's goal is to protect the plot continuum from Sues and bad fanfic.

Our goal?

It's to enjoy the community here, enjoy good writing. It's not to rev up the PPC mission writing every time someone goes "OH NOES. THAR IS A BADFIC. WHATEVAR SHALL WE DO? HALP. KEEL EET.

So as a newbie, I suggest you get into the community spirit part of here instead of the "THIS NEEDS TO BE DEAD RIGHT NOW" spirit.






*Pratchett and humorous references** nonwithstanding, if you cannot integrate a footnote into the main body of text, it doesn't belong there at all. Also, notice how annoying it was to scroll**** down here to see what the frog this little footnote was for.

**Your mother was a hamster and your father smelled of elderberries***.

***There are no elderberries in Antarctica, so if he's in Antarctica the fact of smelling like an elderberry is most peculiar.













****You're all welcome to shoot me now.

(PS? I'm not trying to be mean, just pointing out things.)

So that's 2 confirmed bit characters, one unconfirmed bit character (the Goa'uld host may count as one), 1 Mary Sue and a group of Jaffa soldiers with guns who would probably Qualify as bit characters ... I'm rather foolish aren't I.

Me writing fanfiction ... http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4620240/1/TheTransmissionofasignal ... I'm far too much of a coward to even finish that so its not going to happen, I just like Janet too much to risk writing her wrong.

~rawfotra_eht, AKA AbscondingCascade, AKA Life is a paradox, AKA he who will probably never get the courage to finish (well ... begin(1)) his first fanfiction, AKA he who thinks the internet is so useful as without it he would probably never get to say "I have many names(2)".

(1) I've only written a prologue so realistically ... it probably doesn't even count as a fanfiction.

(2) http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/IHaveManyNames

But I don't. So I put it on the Unclaimed Badfic list. It's now sixth-down in Crossovers.

~Neshomeh, who used to write like that, with all the annoying parentheses, when she was in junior high and high school. Blargh. Ick.

And while I'm thinking about it, would you please change the occupants of RC #1110 to Derik and Earwig? Agent Neshomeh has long since transferred to the Department of Personnel to be an Archivist.

~Neshomeh, who may or may not be the same person as Agent Neshomeh, depending on the day and her mood.

Back on the 3rd of April 2009 I meant to join the Board because of the fic Raider's Descent but real life intervened and I forgot to join and report it. The problem is that I think that I may have been the only person to see it as it isn't on The list of Claimed Badfic, Unclaimed Badfic, Killed badfic or the Complete List of PPC Fiction( though I could have missed it).

For those lucky people who haven't read Raider's Descent I present to you its Summary, a link to it, a description about its sue by its creator and a link to my horrified review about it.

Summary: What would happen if Buffy & Spike's kid came to Hogwarts? What if Lara Croft raised her? What happens when she’s sorted into Slytherin? Will she convince her fellow snakes to think for themselves? Or will they devour her from beneath?

My (AbscondingCascade) horrified review about it: http://www.tthfanfic.org/Reviews-18876/

Now please tell me that Amanda Summers Croft is dead not alive twisting Buffy, Harry Potter and Tomb Raider canon together into a horrible mess. As if she lives then I deserve to be put alone in a room with a possessed Sky Silvestry ...

To be a character, even a bit character, requires... well, characterization. They have to actually do something in the story. What's-his-name, the guy who shows SG-1 around when they first get to the Commonwealth, is a bit character (minor character at best) and could be assassinated or recruited. The guy who shows them how to use the TVs on the train is a bit character, and he does so little he'd either disappear or assimilate with the canon as soon as the Sue's influence was removed.

The other System Lords don't actually play a role in the fic, either. They are never shown to interact with the Sue (unless I missed something). Therefore, when she's gone and the canon snaps back to normal, the worst that could happen is that they'd be left with a nagging sense that they forgot something. Maybe her name. But, in the face of the realities of canon, they'd soon forget all about it and be just fine without intervention from the PPC.

All this is based on traditional PPC conventions. In our canon, if you will, that's just the way things work.

Everything in fanfic and the PPC is strongly determined by the fact that we're dealing with a written work. No matter how much we treat the effects of badfic as real effects on a real world, at the heart of it, it's all just Words. If it doesn't occur in the Words, it isn't important.

As for recruiting dead canons, yes, it has happened, but only as something rare and unusual. The rule of thumb is, if you want to write about the canon characters, the thing to do is write a fanfic, not turn the PPC into one.

... I mean, okay, the PPC is sort of a cosmopolitan group fanfic. But the point is to protect the various canons and leave them undisturbed, not to drag their people in here just because one person feels like it. Generally speaking, if a canon character gets recruited, it's because they are NOT the real character, but an Alternate Universe version. They often take on new names so as to avoid confusion and are somewhat different from their canon counterparts.

~Neshomeh, who's going to stop now before she confuses herself.

Unless anyone else feels like they can add something better?

We can't be the only RK fans on this board, can we?

"Brought to us courtesy of GreyLadyBast, Pink Stuff is a brightly colored alcohol that is almost lethally potent and leaves killer hangovers. Drunkenness ensues almost immediately after consumption, and the Stuff is available to almost anybody. Warning: Should you choose to drink Pink Stuff, you will be in severe pain for several hours until it wears off, unless you can manage to get a hold of:

Purple Stuff: The only thing in existence that will alleviate the hangover from Pink Stuff. Purple Stuff kicks in almost immediately, and it is generally recommended that you have your Purple Stuff on hand before you drink Pink Stuff. Unlike Pink Stuff, however, Purple Stuff is only available for PPC and OFUM (and other OFUs) staff members, or from GreyLadyBast personally. However, while Bast gives out Pink Stuff freely, she is a bit stingier with Purple Stuff. Especially if you’re a fangirl."

My problem is actually continuing where my partner left off. I keep being jarred by how my style is different from his so I can't make the transition between the chapters he covered and the chapters I will cover. Though I suppose that's just a matter of practice makes perfect.
