The PPC Posting Board - Latest posts

We certainly hope there won't be any story death, and with the authors as determined as they are (one of them likes prodding people to make them do things they're supposed to be doing), it shouldn't happen, though there may be fairly long waits between chapters.

As for your questions: yes, enrollment is still open (unless Oozaru's closed it without telling me), and no, you don't have to write TRC fanfic to join. Several of our students' authors don't even know the continuum, they signed up out of sheer masochistic curiosity. The enrollment form is on the OFUTRC LJ, it's the first post we made. Just copypaste it, fill in the answers to make a fanbrat, and email me the result. My email is cassie.dramateacher at gmail.com (with obvious alterations).

Fanbrat-you should appear in the next chapter, as we're trying to make sure we cameo everyone fairly.

And thank you again, we don't get much feedback on our work, and it's nice to know people do enjoy it.

I didn't; wrote 5000 words in one night and gave up. But some people here must have finished, right? I salute anyone who has.

I don't get half of the references though... And you spelled 'Pratchett' (as Prattchet), 'McCaffrey' (as McCaffery), 'mudkipz' (as mupkiz), and 'freakazoid' (as freakzoid) wrong. The reference thing is fine, that's just me. The typos really should be edited though.

Nice chapter. I've always liked this OFU, the Tsubasa continuum is fun... I hope to see more soon! And no story death, please, it's happened to too many fanfic universities.

One more thing. Is enrollment still open, and do you actually have to write fic to be able to sign up? If not, I'd like to.

Forgot about that thing with Nihilus, and the Sarlacc being escapable. Nihilus would probably be possessed by the Sue's soul if that happened... That, or he'd get some new Sue powers and eat the galaxy much faster. And I completely forgot about Fett getting out of Carkoon and mysteriously appearing plotholes. Flood for bits sounds like fun though.

Hopefully, these suggestions will be better. Tie a Sue to a UNSC NOVA-class bomb or dangle her over a MAC cannon barrel. That, or you could chuck her off the tallest point in High Charity. The really long fall should only be for the ones who can't fly by any means, though.

For Star Wars, maybe feed her to the very big fishes on Naboo, the Kamino sea life, or a random krakana? You could also stick one to the Death Star's laser. Summoning thousands of Hssiss with the Dead Jedi corpse in the Korriban tomb and watching a Sue get eaten by them is also fun. Jekk'Jekk Tarr poison gas is sadistic, evil and absolutely perfect. Just tell the Sue you're letting her go in front of the door, and that she should have a nice drink.

Oh, and mini-Rancor. Can I adopt Nihlus? I always wanted a Star Wars mini. By the way, mini-Hunters sounds like a pretty good idea.

If not from her, then probably from the Permission-Givers here.

While, yes, it's admirable to want to keep some form of control on the OFUs, the problem is that the PPC is only one part of the OFU fan community. We as Permission Givers were chosen as stewards of the PPC -- not of the OFUs. I'm not sure we have the right to claim authority over the latter as well. Remember that the PPC were fans of OFUM before Miss Cam ever knew they existed...

Have a Prinny suit! It makes you better at just about everything (in an RPG sense), but it has the side-effect of making you add 'Dood' to the end of every sentence.

Suenicorn jerky sounds delicious, and coconuts are good. Plus, they make a very good Monty Python reference item when empty. Yay!

Um, no, it wouldn't be horribly stalkerish, and (which is where my posts were going) apparently I will make some more strips soon.

Er, I'll email you.

One of the things the last three and a half years have drilled into my head is the value of saying as much as can be said in as few words as possible. Trust me, much will be gained by pruning away all our excess words.

And yes, the editing makes it difficult for both of us to think about doing anything more just now, perfectionistas that we are.

*random and unwarranted*

...you really didn't answer my question...

But a towel is always handy to have in any case! You can carry coconuts in it, for one thing. *does so*

1. What happens if a canon character is "killed" before they should have been? Do they need to be taken to Medical?
   
   2. Do all bit characters have to be killed? If not, can they be left in the canon universe?
   
   3. How do you reconcile a description that's completely incompatible with the subject? The fic states that the Sue's vibroblade glows when activated and has a blade that vanishes when the power's turned off, but its stated to not be a "proper lightsaber".

I happen to LIKE Evanescence. This is an insult. Spork it with much mighty.

Yeah, call me Maudlin, or Mad Maudlin if you want the full thing. I got the name from a song about asylum inmates, so it doesn't really matter, heheh.

2. But can Hunters throw blue "spider"s at said annoying fangirls? In any event, my vote's for Hunters.

3.Let alone mind warping, god-moding plague vectors or intelligences.

4. Flood might actually be a bad idea for Sues. If their blood is contagious, things could go downhill in a hurry. Better to simply reserve the Flood for dying bit characters. Carkoon and Nihlus seem to be Very Bad Ideas, if only because the Sue's life force might be dangerous in the hands of a xenocidal, power-mad loony. As for the Pit of Carkoon, do we really want a Sued Fett/Anonymous Victim or the Sue herself to escape through a plot hole.

That's right, Chapter Five of OFUTRC is out!

Well, technically, it was out a couple of days ago, but we forgot to plug it.

Anyway! Here's the link! Enjoy!

Ran an old incarnation of it a while ago (and came up with the main concept), but that blew up partly due to me and a mod not getting on and it was too hard to run alone. Recruited two new different mods, fixed up the structure to make it easier to run, rebooted, and here we are.

It's going much better this time.

Ciri and I have been working recently on an MST of a fic called 'My Chemical Phantom', and have finished the first chapter!

You can find the original fic here: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3030699/1/MyChemicalPhantom

The MST is here: http://docs.google.com/Doc?id=dgb2zk67_73hkmh5ngb

We'll post the next chapter when we finish, but enjoy!

I should study up on my oldbies.

E-mail me the details and I can tell you what I think. Ultimately, they're your characters and you know them better than anyone else, but if you want advice without spoiling everyone, I'm happy to help.
