Ninth Palaver

I just can't see him doing that. He has basically all the records, besides superbowl of course. :p

I knew what it was. XD I was just trying to give some emphasis that I don't think your characters are. ;)

Yeah but I don't think he wants anyone beating them so I can see him willing to pad the numbers.

Oh oka then. Well thanks I'm glad I'm not doing that then.

You wanna know a Mary Sue? Katniss Everdean.

I was going to say Bella Swan but I agree on that front, I think Katniss Everdean is very poorly written (or at least, I don't think shes as good as her fans think she is). Not to mention all the self made mary sues you seen in fan fictions (and regular written fiction by ordinary people).

... Although (and this is where I get on my high horse and sound like a total snob) I htink anyone who writes for a primarily teen market, in particular teen girls, write very open and blank characters, because you want them to think they're that person. Like (and this shows bias) if I'm reading stephen king, rarely does he write a character thats so open I can say, "oh yeah, this could be me." I think teen boy fiction does this too (if there is such a category) in some ways too.

But ah well, it is what it is I guess. Went out htis weekend and did some ceramics painting. you can see it on my deviant art page if you look. Going to try and work on my story more tis week. Whats new with you?

I just feel like those books don't make it real with all those characters. Life isn't like that; well, at least in 99% of cases. Lord knows there has to be some perfect girl or boy out there that everyone loves. XD

I haven't been up to much. Trying to fit some time in between school and work to get back on my writing. As you know, I finished the last chapter (Chap 25) of the story first because it was the easiest/shortest with all I wasn't to incorporate into it. I now have Chapter 1-10 done on top of it, with just the bulk middle fourteen chapters left.

But now I've decided to jump and play some musical chairs, so to stay. I'm now going to work on Chapters 21 and 23, because they sort of are like their own thing, you know? Chap21 is the one that sort of breaks the fourth wall where the main characters gives insight on where he's at now and what he's endured over the years, so I don't really need to edited up to it consecutively. I will say that it's a major spoiler in most ways, but is pretty dark in what he's gone through.

The 23rd chapter also has this single entity feel to me, but is directly involved in the story, if that makes sense. It happens over only a few minutes, so that might better explain it. i will then be doing Chapters 22 and 24, before the last ten insurmountable chapters. XD

Yeah, thats called the high school king and queen. XD But i agree, they're just bad movies.

Thats understandable. Sounds like those chapters are radically different and it would be weird to go sequentially and have a tone and flow broken by a jarring change. However you do it though I hope it goes well for you.

XD

I wouldn't say the movies bad, just the characters. lol

No real development, and annoying how people are crazed about them and yearning to be them. XD

At this point, I really don't mind if Chapter 21 breaks a little away from the story and flow. Like I said, it is different ftom the main storu veing told. It's more of a chapter that sets up the series, should it be successful. I could be wrong and it readers might not care for it, but where I'm at and am seeing things from, it has to be included. (Have you ever felt that way about a chapter or aspect or idea when writing?

I may be blinded by the love I have for the chapter though; it's right up there with the one that contains the sex scene. ;)

Fair enough.

Well Its not that it breaks the story. YOu were saying about editing. Like, I hate when Im editing something and then i take a break and look at something different and its so different. it takes me totally out of my rhythm. But that just might be me.

I guess I have. I don't really write Chapters of anyhting (other than my soul cal story) and I ugess in that regard it was important to have scene where Tenlo rallies the Wolfkrone citizens, but that was more as a means for him to meet Adelyn. Originally I was just going ot have her be in the same room as Seigfried, but I decided it would fit her personality more to not just be in already (especially with how she is viewed by and how she views Hilde). And it showed how not everything is going well in the nation.

Even though I think it turned Tenlo a bit into a gary stu where he just can stand and rally these people who have no idea who he is and make him sound that charasmatic, I thought it was important to do.

Ohh myyyy~! Gonna get steamy reading this book. Have to put an adults only section whereever you sell it at. XD Have to do a lot of indepth and personal research for that scene? ;)

Oh... I thought you were referring to a break in the story. XD

You need to explain better! jk XD

I know what you me. I often find myself reading the chapter after a long break, up to the point I'm at. It takes time, as well the look over after finishing, but I think it's worth it to keep the fluidity.

I always considered your writings like Books instead of Chapter, like what you'd see in a Charles Dickens Novel (even though those also have chapters).

That's exactly how I feel about this chapter, plus the "other" one. ;)

Moses did it, so so can Tenlo! XD

Didn't really need much research. ;) But I kept it discreet, sort of like what you did in the emerald series. There's a bit to it, but not the actual sex part. XD

Not enough to put it in that section, not like 50 Shades of Mommy Porn. lol

Yeah yeah, i'll start making sure I bold, underline, and italicize. XD

Well you probably conisder them that way because thats who I write them. Heck, my rafael oscuro story was titled "Book ___________." But no i know what you mean. I do that intentionally, mostly because I don't think i have enough there to break it into chapters like I do my Soul Cal FF and my Nuzlocke.

Are you saying Tenlo is Moses? Cause I could allude to that with a simple edit. XD

Ah, you alluded to it like i did then. Gotcha, classy. Very classy. Personally I think that's the best way to go about it, rather than just being out in the open and be like "And then they totally did it and here's how." Let the reader fill in the sordid details.

Hey you never know. 50 Shades of Gray sold like hot cakes, and I know those cheap gas station novels written primarily for women (thats not even a sexist remark, they're pretty much designed for women by blueprint) they do pretty well as quick reads. maybe you may want to consider it ;)

What's up people! Thought I'd join a team and say Hi. Long time member of SuperCheats.

I remember seeing you around. I don't know how much we talked, if we did, but I do rmember you. How are you, whats new? welcome to teams (if you haven't be here before) and thanks for joining mine.

I haven't been on the teams part since they separated the system from the original forums. Former Moderator, would have been Super Mod but my activity dropped.

Been good, raising my children and trying to get into YouTube.

How have you been?

Ive been doing alright. More or less keeping thiss part of the site alive. Other than that I'm just looking for full time work. Just starting up on youtube then I take it?

Yeah, I have some videos from 3 years ago. But I wasn't planning to do YouTube. Gonna try to get that going. Yeah I can see for the most part the site is dead. Breaks my heart honestly. I grew up a lot on here, met a lot of people. Wish we could do something and get the community going again. I honestly think the site has changed way to much. Simple was better. SuperCheats lost that with these updates.

I dont really know what SC can do to keep up with things.

My opinion, its changed way to much. The forums use to be so basic and simple and easy to navigate. I don't know if even in 2008 they was basic that's when the first overhauls was coming or started.

I also think the lack is due to people aren't looking for cheats anymore, they are looking for Game Mods. Cheats are a thing of the past. Sure people may look for Hints, or have a question. I think the whole Cheats scene is gone from gaming.

Majority of players are playing games like Runescape, League of Legends, CSGO, Call of Duty, Halo & Destiny.

... therefore, most people will over look the cheats, etc.

Yeah thats true, I agree with you cheats are basically gone.

I've looked on the main site to answer questions and stuff. Not as many as there is to be. I'm 15 subs away from 3,000. I use to do like 15 to 50 a day

Talking about submitting machines... XD
