Specifically the Sub-Division of Video Gaming. By the way, since Lunac, Arti and Liadan hold the main office, does the other Boarders who have claims on specific video games get their own little router, or would it be Arti, Lunac and Liadan saying 'That needs to go to them."?

First badfic reportage! by

Fandom: LOTR
Rating: M
Summary: Story of the illegitimate daughter of Arwen And Aragorn. I own nothing but the character of Elbereth but not her name. All owned by Professor Tolkien! PLEASE R & R!
Pairings: Haldir/OC, Legolas/OC
Oh, no, not again. Not as ridiculous as "A Elbereth Gilthoniel" for a name, but just Elbereth is bad enough. Daughter of Arwen and Aragorn, and grows unnaturally quickly for an elf. She develops at the rate humans do, which is just bad biology. She is taught dagger-fighting and archery at the age of five, and is good at it; this is ridiculous enough for humans, let alone a five-year-old elf. She is also apparently an illegitimate daughter. Of course, this is absolutely nonsensical and pointless, as Aragorn and Arwen were actually married. Stupid Suethor. What's worse is that this one actually KNOWS canon, up to having correct Sindarin and knowing the exact date of Arwen's going to Valinor. Very OOC Arwen for the blasphemy alone, and probably other OOC canons.
I think the DMS or DoF will take this one. Standard NameStealing!Sue. I suggest #17 on the 31 Ways to Kill a Mary Sue list. Seems quite fitting, as she's named after a resident of Valinor. #17 involves leading her to the western shore and holding Alfirin in front of her until she drowns.

I do Bad Slash, obviously. Although we do get a fair few replacement!Stus. And I've done one mission that technically should have gone to the DMS. Currently in the process of setting up the Division of MPreg.

As a sub-deparment of the DMS I mainly take on Sues. I've also tackled a few smaller missions in (reasonable) goodfic where a character was just holding on to the wrong equipment or held it incorrectly.
In total I've done one slash mission and have added a second to my backlist. That one does involve a Gary Stu, so I'm not sure how much it would count as a slash mission.

Obligatory Monty Python Quote!
"The swallow may fly south with the sun, or the house martin or the plover seek warmer hot lands in winter, yet these are not strangers to our land." Oh, and by the way, what is the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow?
TARDIS or RC? Well, if I ever have Agents, anyway... Let's see, uh... Not quite sure, actually. I need to think about that. And watch Doctor Who before making any decisions.

Agents? Probably not for a very, very long time. I'm horrible with names, bad with character development, and not that good with witty banter. I'll just stick to reporting badfic or something for now.

That's why I'm thinking of joining the Floaters when I get permission, so I can do missions for any sort of badfic.

I've done one FicPsych story, one DIC story, and three 'Sues. Two of the 'Sues were explained as being misdirected because of Nume's transfer, but still. The other one was a co-mission with hS (representing DOGA) and Kippur (representing Implausibility or something like that).
I'm planning more FicPsych and DIC stuff, and also some deliberate DMS stuff with a new agent pair.
Not that I wouldn't take bad slash if it came up in the course of things. I've got Subjugation on my list, for heaven's sake. O.o
... I've just revealed my depressingly low rate of mission production. Does it help that I've done a bunch of other PPC-related writing? ^_^;

Only five? Really? o.O That seems ridiculously small for the amount of bad slash out there.
I have DMS agents. x.X But since almost nobody seems to know my favorite fandoms, and there is an intolerable abundance of bad slash, I may have to help at some point.

We were discussing the DBS, yes, but it'll also be interesting to see who, if anyone, writes for the other departments. 'Cause there are quite a few of them, but pretty much everyone seems to be in Sues. Except hS, of course, who can be let off as he actually created half of HQ, from the looks of things.

Not that I've written much, but I'm mostly interested in Sue-slaying. Slash squicks me, though I did co-write a mission with Trojie. Is that what you're after?

Unless Lus is an agent I've missed, of course.
So far, the best we've got is "DBS - We will never speak of this again". It has a ring to it, I feel.

Pretty much all the message got through there, and makes sense. So, with hands VERY FAR AWAY from that damned "post" button, we ask for alternative captions for this t-shirt.
Mostly because we're thinking of having a "Captions that didn't make the cut" bit on the back.

So, it's just come to our attention that there's only ever been, like, five Bad Slashers, and we're feeling a little lonely, so we though, how can we make outselves feel loved, and popular, and members of a vast organisation of likeminded individuals?
The answer, after a moment of alcohol-fuelled tangents, became clear: T-shirts.
And so we ask any and all comers to participate in a caption competition. We picture the three-eyed duck of the DBS, with the letters DBS above, and a caption below. For example.
DBS - providing lube to the canonical masses since 2007
DBS - Get your hands off that Elf!

Okay, I was chatting to a few PPCers, and one of them made a comment which got me wondering... what misions does everyone take on? I don't mean Agents, I mean Boarders. For example, I was told there have only ever been five people who write for Bad Slash, and I was wondering if there was anyone else who did it. So... help out a curious li'l ol' PPCer?
