So for anyone writing creatively (or not)... a nice, server-approved way of conversation without traversing the room. yes.

And I desperately hope that I'll be able to find this again once it's posted...

yay for ellipses...!

2 Name: The Name : 2007-07-20 15:31 ID:QlhZF6k3

Is anyone done yet?

3 Name: Schmergo : 2007-07-20 15:31 ID:QlhZF6k3

Hey! This is cool! Even if there seems to be an inordinate amount of, um, body-hair related stuff on this web page.

My story is getting pretty long and... pointless-ish.

4 Name: Schmergo : 2007-07-20 15:33 ID:QlhZF6k3

Ted the absurdly nice werewolf just finished his Werewolves, Anonymous meeting, where he got bashed by his fellow werewolves for being naive and stuff.

He's about to go battle a minotaur in the boiler room on principal's orders... yeah, pretty weird stuff...

5 Name: Nellie : 2007-07-20 15:35 ID:QlhZF6k3

haha! er ... my story was going nowhere fast (and I had no time to put in a plot) and so I turned it into ... a snapshot! Now it is sort of done.

And yes, I only realised the whole body-hair thing until I'd already posted. And anyway, it's one of the few sites that the firewall or whatever will let us into.

6 Name: The Name : 2007-07-20 15:35 ID:QlhZF6k3

I can't get a good ending. It seems like my story isn't really going anywhere, but I guess it's more about the character, so I'll just try to develop her.

7 Name: Schmergo : 2007-07-20 15:36 ID:QlhZF6k3

How are other people's stories coming?

8 Name: Schmergo : 2007-07-20 15:37 ID:QlhZF6k3

Agh. Late post. Well, at least my character is fun. I designed him by making the exact opposite of the character I almost always seem to use (a short, intelligent, sarcastic, cynical person). Ted is really tall, not incredibly bright, and the nicest, most innocent person ever.

9 Name: Nellie : 2007-07-20 15:39 ID:QlhZF6k3

So now I see that snapshot = deathy evil. I can't do any plot for time and writing-style constraints and I can't do any character development because I think you're not allowed to do that in a snapshot...?

ugh, bad decisions.

and in the case of Ted, does naive mean nice/non-evil killy stuff (if that makes any sense(probably not))?

10 Name: Schmergo : 2007-07-20 15:39 ID:QlhZF6k3

So, what do you think of Germany? ^_^

11 Name: The Name : 2007-07-20 15:39 ID:QlhZF6k3

My character's a bit cynical and sarcastic, but that's just because people don't like her, so she has an excuse.

12 Name: The Name : 2007-07-20 15:40 ID:QlhZF6k3

Well I think Germany is just swell, how about you?

13 Name: Schmergo : 2007-07-20 15:41 ID:QlhZF6k3

"Naive" basically means he's so innocent that he honestly thinks that society will accept werewolves if they make fruit baskets and floral arrangements on people's doorsteps.

And yeah, he's very non-killy, but then, the aim of the Werewolves Anonymous is to be non-killy. Most of the members are pretty much all stereotypical emotionally conflicted goths/emos, though.

14 Name: Poppy : 2007-07-20 15:42 ID:QlhZF6k3

helloooooo everybody

15 Name: Schmergo : 2007-07-20 15:43 ID:QlhZF6k3

Germany is the Wurst place ever.

Sorry about the pun. ^_^ I love Germany, mainly because I've been speaking German for just over eight years. And I like the food.

16 Name: Schmergo : 2007-07-20 15:44 ID:QlhZF6k3

Helloooo, Poppy. I'm the person in the black fanfiction t-shirt and fluffy hair who isn't allowed to give out her name online...

17 Name: Nellie : 2007-07-20 15:44 ID:QlhZF6k3

aww! well I would be too if I did this thing every month where I turn into something else because of bodily changes! and I just realised how much that sounds like PMS.

P.S. I like Germany just fine ,thanks. Why would you post that? is that like a public-opinion poll or something??

18 Name: Schmergo : 2007-07-20 15:45 ID:QlhZF6k3

Writer's block is bleh... which is why I'm on here!

19 Name: Poppy : 2007-07-20 15:45 ID:QlhZF6k3

My story just turned into an almost chick-lit-ish type romamce novel ewwww o well it's hot

20 Name: Schmergo : 2007-07-20 15:46 ID:QlhZF6k3

I posted the Germany thing as a joke, because the board below us is called "What do you you think of Germany." To which someone replied, "Trash is a German's favourite food."

Okayyy...

Yeah, the biggest cliche ever in my story is Ted's buddies joking about his 'time of month.'

21 Name: Poprox : 2007-07-20 15:46 ID:QlhZF6k3

Ohhhh I just realized that I probably shouldn't have given out my name either, so i changed it.... but of course that's not my real name anyway.... you'll never find me, stalkers!!!

22 Name: Schmergo : 2007-07-20 15:47 ID:QlhZF6k3

What are your characters like?

23 Name: Nellie : 2007-07-20 15:47 ID:QlhZF6k3

sorry about that late post. umm.

Nice pun, A. ('Pun' right there was about to be 'pus.' Thank God for looking up to see what I've typed.)

Hellooooooo Poppy!

And I'm sorry about the name thing, Fluffy. (ha. that's fun to write!/type)

24 Name: Poprox : 2007-07-20 15:48 ID:QlhZF6k3

Wheeeeee!! My story is lame!! Well, it's only lame at the end, but now it's donnnne!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAA Suckers

25 Name: Schmergo : 2007-07-20 15:48 ID:QlhZF6k3

Why am I hungry? I just had lunch...

26 Name: The Name : 2007-07-20 15:49 ID:QlhZF6k3

Hmm, ending, ending...need to find an ending.

27 Name: Poprox : 2007-07-20 15:49 ID:QlhZF6k3

Fluffy??? Ohhh, My ho? anyway... yeah my characters... the girl is me ,and the guy is Fluffy. that's about it...i'm so creative. ps i type like -0.0003 mph

28 Name: Schmergo : 2007-07-20 15:50 ID:QlhZF6k3

I know you said your story was Chick Lit-ish, but what's the basic plotline?

Mine is the greek myth of Theseus and the Minotaur, only set int he present and everything's all werewolfy (the Minotaur's a werewolf) and it's in the school's boiler room.

0_0

29 Name: Nellie : 2007-07-20 15:50 ID:QlhZF6k3

Thanks for the support, Popalop.

and my characters are lame, as they are derived from life.

30 Name: Schmergo : 2007-07-20 15:50 ID:QlhZF6k3

Wait, the guy is ME?

31 Name: Poprox : 2007-07-20 15:50 ID:QlhZF6k3

you should end it with: and then I found a million bucks and blew it all on cheap girls and fast drugs...yessssss

32 Name: Schmergo : 2007-07-20 15:51 ID:QlhZF6k3

(I'm Fluffy. It's my Gangster name. And also a description.)

33 Name: Nellie : 2007-07-20 15:51 ID:QlhZF6k3

I type slow too! which is why all my posts are like, dating back to the Stone Age!

That and I have to click 'reply' like five times before it actually does anything...

34 Name: The Name : 2007-07-20 15:52 ID:QlhZF6k3

Oh yeah, like THAT totally fits in with my story.

35 Name: Poprox : 2007-07-20 15:52 ID:QlhZF6k3

You're not FLUFFY!!! I'll show you my Fluffy... he's in my photo class... yeesssss shexy. Ohhhh PLotline is like my whole experience with the Fluffster at IFTA, like we meet, he's amazing, and then we hookup, except we haven't hooked up yet...heh heh

36 Name: Nellie : 2007-07-20 15:53 ID:QlhZF6k3

Fluffy is also her kitschy nickname for our shirts in jazz. as for myself, I have yet to pick from el-sizzle, French(ie), and e-dawg.

37 Name: Schmergo : 2007-07-20 15:53 ID:QlhZF6k3

You should end every story with, "Suddenly, a piano dropped from the sky, smashing me flat, as well as absolutely anyone or anything that caused conflict in this story."

38 Name: The Name : 2007-07-20 15:54 ID:QlhZF6k3

...this is getting pretty outlandish...

39 Name: Nellie : 2007-07-20 15:54 ID:QlhZF6k3

I like it!

now how do I end a scene with no plot? do I just stop or what?

40 Name: Poprox : 2007-07-20 15:55 ID:QlhZF6k3

Your gangster name??? Nellie have you ever even been to the hood? THat would be a no. My G-name is P-dizzle (For shizzle) well idk, The Name, wtf's your story about? Any good story should definitely end with a million bucks and cheap drugs and fast girls or the other way around... idk. btw, who's the name??

41 Name: Poprox : 2007-07-20 15:56 ID:QlhZF6k3

42 Name: Nellie : 2007-07-20 15:58 ID:QlhZF6k3

43 Name: Poprox : 2007-07-20 15:58 ID:QlhZF6k3

44 Name: Schmergo : 2007-07-20 15:59 ID:QlhZF6k3

My story's nowhere near being done, so I just came to a dramatic stopping point and printed. Whoot.

45 Name: Poprox : 2007-07-20 15:59 ID:QlhZF6k3

Are you kidding? THose are the burbs, lady. I grew up in the real hood. Like we had drivebys, fo shizzle.

46 Name: Poprox : 2007-07-20 15:59 ID:QlhZF6k3

And we were allowed to say fo shizzle and not get shanked.

47 Name: Schmergo : 2007-07-20 16:00 ID:QlhZF6k3

Glasgow? As in Scotland?

48 Name: Schmergo : 2007-07-20 16:00 ID:QlhZF6k3

Because those Scotsmen are GANGSTA. They have to be to pull off wearing skirts.

49 Name: Poprox : 2007-07-20 16:00 ID:QlhZF6k3

"100000000000000 pages"? THAT'S a nice hyperbole for you.

52 Name: Poprox : 2007-07-20 16:02 ID:QlhZF6k3

Heelllllllooooo? Is anyone thereeeeee? I'm so alone.

53 Name: Nellie : 2007-07-20 16:02 ID:QlhZF6k3

Glasgow as in Alexandria. And you're not allowed to say that and not get shanked, it's just that I haven't gotten all the way up there yet.

54 Name: Poprox : 2007-07-20 16:03 ID:QlhZF6k3

59 Name: The Name : 2007-07-20 16:05 ID:QlhZF6k3

I am Aria. You can also call me "The Walking Hazard"!

60 Name: Schmergo : 2007-07-20 16:06 ID:QlhZF6k3

My story is called "How I Battled A Minotaur In The Boiler Room and Lived To Tell the Tale," despite the fact that the story I'm turning in hasn't yet got to the minotaur-in-the-boiler-room part... but whatever.

61 Name: Poprox : 2007-07-20 16:06 ID:QlhZF6k3

Sooooooooooooooooo, not that this isn't fun, guys....but who's buying me dinner?????? grrrrr

62 Name: Nellie : 2007-07-20 16:07 ID:QlhZF6k3

And poor Calvin. Why is he always stuck with reloading the printer tray thing? ah well.

63 Name: Schmergo : 2007-07-20 16:07 ID:QlhZF6k3

Agggh, Big Red gum! I'm the least hardcore gumchewer ever. I like the rainbow fruit stripe gum with the zebra on the package.

64 Name: Poprox : 2007-07-20 16:07 ID:QlhZF6k3

OMG you are right behind me!!! How did I not know this>??? If I didn't know you already that discovery would have been more than stalker-y.....

65 Name: Schmergo : 2007-07-20 16:08 ID:QlhZF6k3

Because Calvin has the magical superpower of VAPORIZING PAPER WITH HIS THOUGHTS! (Great excuse for not turning in homework)

66 Name: Poprox : 2007-07-20 16:09 ID:QlhZF6k3

AAAAAAHHHHHH!! I love that stuffffff! What is that!!! I remeber like choking on a 17 pound piece of that shit!! Yeah, I don't usually eat the Big Red, but I shanked Fluffy into giving me some...

67 Name: Calvin : 2007-07-20 16:09 ID:QlhZF6k3

Im watching what you type on my intornetz :D

68 Name: Poprox : 2007-07-20 16:09 ID:QlhZF6k3

MMMMMMM, FLuffy.... yummmy FLuffy

69 Name: Poprox : 2007-07-20 16:10 ID:QlhZF6k3

Hey there, cowboy

70 Name: Schmergo : 2007-07-20 16:10 ID:QlhZF6k3

Because that wasn;'t ominous at ALL..

71 Name: Nellie : 2007-07-20 16:10 ID:QlhZF6k3

And my 'not I' was in response to the gum-chewing, but the timing was awesome on that, as I'm not buying you dinner either, poppy. Perhaps see y'all on the weekend?
