He's more infamous for his original comics (which borrow so heavily from everything else that they may as well just be fanfiction), but he started out by writing fanfiction. Since this was circa 1995-1997 or so and he has since abandoned fanfiction, it's not too hard to see why he'd become a bit obscure (in fact, it's more likely that everybody who reads these stories today do so because they found him through one of his great many webcomics). Anyway, his stories have a certain... je-ne-sais-quoi to them. They're highly disjointed, poorly structured, have no respect whatsoever for any canon they draw from, tenuous continuity, and everything pretty much revolves around his blatant self-insert author avatar of David "Davey Crockett" Kintobor. Grim sights, to be sure. Anyway, "The Piasa Bird" can be found at the first link (which has oh-so-subtle folder directories), with "Blood and Metal" and "Sailor Moon: American Kitsune" at the second link:

Psh, and let you have all the fun?

I rather like that idea. A new story to break up the Holders series would be nice, too-- my main issue with the Holders is that there are way too many and they ended up being much of the same, so I am in favor of an actual story for one of them.
Be ruthless in figuring out what troubles the Seeker should overcome/tape the outcome and hold a screening for other agents?
P.S. if you liked the Holders, check out the SCP series? Paranormal objects and government coverup, hooray!

Around early March the foxes are just coming out of their breeding season, and the hares and ferrets are just coming in. That will be fun to live with.
It gets worse. We have to get in something subtle enough to be funny about the unfortunate induced instincts of the rabbit and hare students. Let's say they spend a LOT of time brushing their teeth.

I've got exams at school. BIG exams, as in, the Semi-final ones... *Sighs*
But it will get there in due haste. One of my Agents is from the Pokemon Continuum, and his Pokemon Team won't take kindly to their world being crossed-over or trespassed on by Sues and Stus.

What I really wanted was to be told that Wikipedia has just made one of it's habitual mistakes, that deeper analysis would prove the talk page and the article wrong. Yes, that's selfish; but I have a tendency to grsp at straws, even when it's futile. Sorry for being immature!
PS: Tell me if there are any grammatical errors.

1) David Gonterman is a badfic author? 'cause the way your question was frased I first thought he was a canon author and I've never heard the name. Which probably means that he is not that legendary. But as a badficcer he could be legendary in his fandom. or fandoms as seems to be the case.
2) So you would like to be a PPC author? This wikipage might be informative: http://ppc.wikia.com/wiki/Permission

None of this involves the person running the RPG and she hasn't said anything so the uptight twits can go twist the sticks they have up their rear ends a little bit deeper for all I care. Besides, it might serve the RPG well that they don't like me much. It'll help them get into character. Well, most of them. ;p It's a Doctor Who RPG and I'm doing River Song. One of the twits is doing the Master and another is doing an incarnation of Rose (I forget which version). The person I 'insulted' is, IIRC, the Tenth Doctor. *shrugs* Whatever. He's not supposed to much trust River in the beginning, anyway, and she's certainly not one to care what anyone else thinks, though I'll have to pretend to care in this case. *makes gagging motions*

Question/Potential Claim by
on 2008-08-20 07:28:00 UTC
Reply
Has any of David Gonterman's work been done by the PPC before? Nothing shows up on the Wiki search for the name "Gonterman". Anyway, if his stories haven't been done before (would really, really surprise me... the man is "legendary"), I'd like to claim the "Davey Crockett" trilogy of Power Rangers/Sonic the Hedgehog/Sailor Moon/everything under the sun crossover for a story. I tried to find something about the due process of writing for this website, but there didn't seem to be any easily accessible page. Any input would be appreciated.

You're better off without them. Honestly, I've dealt with their type before, and they're just a needless source of stress. They take their little forum fiefdoms far too seriously. They have all the charm (and the cranio-rectal inversion) of a particularly uptight homeowner's association. Life is too short to deal with that kind of asshats.
