Haha - I know mostly where the fun/cheap stuff to do is. |D Generally, good places to go for pointless walks. I'm a suburban moron myself~ |D
Also - When as in Time of Day or Day of the Month? I'm thinking it might be best to get an ealy start, but we can't be guaranteeing that everyone will be up for an early start, and I certainly can't be out into the city before about ten in the morning, as it takes at least an hour for me to get out there. So, a lunch-time start?

And I would like to claim Captain Dandy or any characters with formal speaking patterns. Email me if a casting choice is made, my address is on the beta page on the wiki.

A TV set for someone who bamfs into Narnia? Definitely a temporal offense.

And no offense taken, because I would be really creeped out if you were my cousin too. But then I would know you were my cousin, so not so weird. But then I would be all freaked out that you would tell my parents...xD
Let's check, then. Are you coming to NYC very soon? 'Cos if not, you're not my cousin. xD

Sorry I didn't see this before I posted by other reply. I hold my point, though.

Well, I'm all for a ban on PPCing purely religious fic, but by

But I think crossovers would be another story - literally.
Either way - *waves a little flag* - I've had enough difficult conversations with friends over religious issues that I'd be very glad to never see such things dragged into the PPC. I hope you don't lift the ban, hS.

... it was the fact that any fanfic of the Bible is offensive, and a PPCing is such a beast, so better to have one rather than two. This is a Boarder thing, not an Agent thing, and sadly, writing a PPC of a fanfic doesn't always get it removed from the internets.
Actually, though, the PPC is very good at avoiding flamewars. We've had religious conversations on-Board before with no trouble, because we're mostly fairly nice crazy people. It was never really about flames or people getting angry.

So many people have strong opinions in so many different directions about the topic that it's just a flamewar waiting to happen. I know, I read the Jack forum.
Slight shame, because then we can't spork such things as the Draco/Jesus fic I remember seeing a summary for once. (It was in a friendslocked LJ entry, but merely knowing it exists/existed terrifies the life out of me.) Ah well, there are other places to do so.

Someone presented the Board with Surrender to my Love, which is scary, and now dead, because I PPC'd it. When I posted it, someone responded with another Biblefic, which I said I'd also do. At that point, someone said "I'd rather you didn't," a couple of others backed her up, and then at least one, possibly two Permission Givers chimed in to agree to a ban. I don't remember the specific people involved, and I may have some of the details wrong, but that's a general version.

what was the origin of the ban, out of interest? by

It seems a fairly sensible ban simply because it would avoid religious flame wars (which I have learnt to dread, being a hardline Darwinian), but ... I'm curious as to when and how it came about.
