Bravo Seli. If PotW fails to inspire, why not try TotW? Once I have an idea, it takes less than an hour to write a 300-400 word story.
the totw b didn't inspire me, but A did. Good find, lets see if i can break 3rd place for a personal record
why should we take it so serioussssss ? As I said using alts is detrimental to an online competition like this. Augur Lucky Ferine allowed me to transfer the TotW Win, by the way. As far as I know he's not managing any of the competitions.
That reminds me, how authentic do you suppose is Authentique? (just idle musing here, no complaints or accusations)
You're the boss of the AAR Comp, you decide ofc. Juv, Authentique does smell like an alt, or if we are lucky it is just a lurker who registered juuuuuuuuust for TotW
I am just happy that people are writing stories no matter how they choose to present themselves. I've never been attracted to Alts myself. I couldn't face the effort of having to stay in character and not reveal knowledge from other accounts. Perhaps if I was more controversial I might be tempted. My wife frequents the Yahoo message boards, and things are a lot rougher there (lots of swearing and personal insults). She told me about a user who make threads consisting exclusively of him and his Alts, with the Alts giving positive ratings to his posts and echoing their approval for his prejudices like a kind of puppet chorus.
we don't need alts, we have the PowerWizard's Tavern Group . Support and Rep guarranteed!
we don't need alts, we have the PowerWizard's Tavern Group . Okay, I admit it. I am mollsomg, Juvenal, Musthavename, Legio Caesar, Gaius Baltar, LlamaD, Tweety, Caradog and Xavier Dragnesi in one person. Which means I support my own proposals, give myself reps and awards, and I even patronized myself!
I am initially reminded of Robert Heinlein's wonderful short story By His Bootstraps (1941). This title is the origin of the word "Boot" (as in starting a computer). "Waldo" (for remote-controlled manipulators) also originates from a Heinlein story (of the same name).
Okay, I admit it. I am mollsomg, Juvenal, Musthavename, Legio Caesar, Gaius Baltar, LlamaD, Tweety, Caradog and Xavier Dragnesi in one person. WHY DID YOU REVEAL OUR SPLIT PERSONALITY! YOU TRAITOR!!!
Musthavename, why did you ask yourself a question?
srsly how drunk were you when you created Musthavename...
I have an idea for a topic. I'm not sure about it though, The Most underrated AARtists on the forum. Edit: You kept that secret for so long awaay from the moderators. Nice!
me
Musthavename, why did you ask yourself a question? That's nothing compared to what was in my inbox today.
Am I underrated? Only the XGM people know my AAR.*sobs* On a more serious note, how do you pronounce AARtists? Is it Are-tists? Or Ay-Ay-Are-tists?:hmmm: @Musthavename- I confess I did that once too.
how do you pronounce AARtists? AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAArtists.
I didn't know you could send yourself messages. From now on I'll regularly get mail
i could be an underated aarist, if i finished an aar to be underated from I say a a rtists, with the a's being pronounced
Hey don't know if youve read it or not, but here is the link to my new aar. http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?p=4136481
