Just the citations for the in-text quotes and a list of stories, which is aimed more at my professor than those of us who can find good 'fics for ourselves.
Constructive is always welcome!

And then go to your recycle bin and delete it from there, too. I promise it's not contaminated, though.

I kind of find the board harder to keep track of, sometimes, but… it should be okay. Either'd be fine.
I don't think I've got major plans for either weekend, so whichever most people prefer's fine by me.

...patronize fanfic, as it enhances their power. Nurgle and Khorne can take Emo and Gore fic, though. I perfer Mini-Agents of Change, or if you belive that 90% of fanfic is a Lemon of some sort, Mini-Keepers of Secrets.
Please reply!

Muttering as she watched the departing Ypurs... by

Liadan looked around, wondering how she could have gotten lost on the way to the Cafeteria when she had been right next to everyone. Pulling out her wand again, she checked the doors as the Ypurs headed down the corridors to the Sunflower Official's office.
"Ostendium Veneficus!" She cried, hitting the lock with her wand. When nothing happened, she sighed, swishing her wand. "Revealo arcanum?" Her wand, becoming sympathetic to her uncanonical spells, shimmered with a pearly light. The doors lit up, displaying a hand print, and oddly, the shadowed imprint of a staff.
"Well, that can't be good." Liadan muttered. "Know anyone who uses a magical staff?"

Now, can you show me how to delete it? I forgot that my mom forbade me from downloading anything from the internet while we still haven't updated our AntiVirus program.

The ESSAY! by

*nurses bruised arms* As I have been so pointedly reminded - ;p - I promised you all a copy of my university project, the informative essay on fanfiction. So... here it is.
Let me say, though, that I sincerely hope you won't be disappointed - this was not, after all, written for those of us who already know the fanfic world, but rather as an introduction for those who don't. So there won't be anything here that you lot don't already know.
I was going to do this on LJ or googledocs, but my nice formatting with the pictures would have been lost, so instead I've turned it into a PDF file - two of them, actually. A long version, which includes the appendix, citations and bibliography, and a short version, which does not, and should be nicer to slow connections.
In case you wonder about the thin black box under the subtitle - that was my name, but as I'd like to keep my internet and real life identites separate, I blacked it out. Not that I don't trust you, of course - :) - but I do want to publish a longer version of this as a proper book someday - soon - and so I'm a little protective. Hence, also, why I made it a PDF. Please don't share it around too much; show people, sure (particularly parents and teachers - who complain about us "wasting our time" on the net - hint, hint, Ciri), but don't give other people copies of the file, or link them to the download. Please.
If any of you don't have the reader program for PDF files, email me and I'll send you a Word copy. fanwriter_sedri@hotmail.com
Feel free to tell me if you find anything you disagree with, that is factually wrong, or that you think I misinterpreted. Spelling/punctuation errors too, if you want, but as it's already been handed in, there's not much point there.
And... yeah. Hope you like it - particularly those of you I interviewed. *crosses fingers*

I would say we should do both - as long as people use the same name on them both, it should be fine.

Can you blame me for taking a day off?
Googledocs is being evil with the formatting, and I don't think the pictures will work very well there, either. I'm going to try it as a PDF, or LJ.
... Yes, right now. Promise.

as in, disconnect, crash, be out of sync, and a whole lot of other problems. Besides, you'd have to make a deliberate effort to tell people apart by IPs
Question - what if two people pick the same character?
And yes, certainly, I'm interested. Time zones will make it interesting, and I'm going to a friend's bachelorette party on the 18th, but we can make it work. :)

I'd rather use the board, I'm sure we can trust people (who aren't July) to not spoil the game by paying attention to IP addresses. Or maybe we could turn off the feature that registers IP addresses just for the two days?
