I do like how literally the canon interprets everything. Although I'm now put off ever reading Pern. Even without knowing anything about it, the mission still pretty much made sense, so good job!

These I have seen. Generally in my dad's hankies. They are not something anyone with any sense would be investigating.
Also, I see you also have "portaled" with one L. This is the standard American spelling then?
Spotted one thing that's confusing me. You've written "to wit"; so far as I know it's "to whit". Certainly Pratchett uses the latter. Google isn't helping me find much clarification on which is correct - all I found is Merriam-Webster giving "to wit" but they're an American dictionary. Anyone got any ideas on this one? *is totally a geek when it comes to the English language*

Mine and Trojie's DBS missions are all archived at her livejournal: agenttrojie.livejournal.com. There's a PPC tag. Presumably Laburnum keeps hers at her livejournal too: chelonianmobile.livejournal.com. Though she doesn't appear to have tags on hers, so have fun rooting through.

Yeah, I know... it sucks to be him right now. You will be seeing more of him, though, if I can get my act together. {= )

No offense to the Sue killers on the board, but I've always wanted to read a Bad Slash or DIC or DOGA mission just to see how it was different from the "kill the Sue" type ones. This is the first DIC mission I've actually been able to see, I'll definitely give it a look.

Technically, though, I didn't misspell my name, at least I just used a different screen name by mistake ("kmtgarrett" is actually my full initials "Kyle Michael Thomas Garrett" as opposed to just "kgarrett", or Kyle Garrett). Still, guess I'll adopt it, sorry. So, what do we do with mini-Boarders? Just use them as we would a mini spawned in a mission?

... I still think Titan Arums (Ara?) are cool. How many plants are technically called "giant funny-shaped dick"?
I get a giggle out of Latin names. Didja know the Latin name for ferrets ("Mustela putorius furo") means "smelly little thief"?

I can squeak in a suitable manner. I'll just have to wait till my parents are out of the way so they don't ask why I'm yelling "POOKY!" into the microphone.

DIC Mission 3: Harry Potter and the Dragonriders of Pern.
This so needed to die. What's in the mission, despite its ridiculous length, isn't even half of it. {= P
Thanks again to my volunteer agents and beta-readers! *gives hugs and chocolate*

is Jill. I'll email that over to you. It's not a very big part, but it's a nice lively one. And I'll bet there was some sibling rivalry during the Invasion. :)

My sister says she'd be delighted to help out, and she's pretty good with accents, so if you want to send over more than one small part for her, please do. And the screaming you hear in the battle-background recordings may resemble sibling rivalry. ;p

I'd be glad to do more mini-parts (but not the Dalek, and I've already done a Sue - you pick which), and I can drag my sister in to help with recording battle backgrounds. Will mail them over to Trojie later today, and if you want to send me additional parts, please do so. Maybe I can get my sister to do some of them, too.

Only three characters are still unassigned... by

The DoF Stu, Jill, and the Vixen!Sues. If anyone wants to do the Vixen!Sues, it's only a matter of going, "POOKY!" very loudly, and we can cut the various versions together. If you want to do that, just send them in, don't worry about volunteering on here just to shout one word.
Jill is the only majorish character left who's unassigned, and she only has about six lines altogether. Anyone want to take her on?
Thank you, everyone, for the progress so far!

There is one male voice left, a Stu. If you let me have your email, I'll send it over. It's only a one-line part, but if you're willing to take it I'm willing to send it.

Just wanted to expand on something. If there are any bit Stus or Agents available other than the ones listed (since people like Laburnum have asked you to look for other one line Sues or other such characters), I could also try those. It's mostly up to your discretion though, and if you can't find any or there just aren't any, I'm fine with that.
