Writers' Study Duels: Commentary, discussing, trash talking - ALL HERE!

Posted by Shankbot12:

Due to the WS Chat Thread getting cluttered I have trawled through the Chat Thread and moved most D&C related posts to this new thread, and we want to keep it this way. From now on please post in here anything relating to Duels and Challenges. We want to save the Chat Thread for actual questions and welcoming new writers.

Well if Rex hasn't used this hiatus to crawl away snivelling in some corner (which I expect he has, knowing he's lost before he starts anyway), bring it on

Hah! that avatar suits you, buffalos are famous for producing BT by the bucket load after all

I'm ready when you are, put em up....

[Ybbon]

There are a disturbing number of entries from me! Whoops, Mr Potty Mouth!

[Shankbot de Bodemloze]

Entries as in Duels or Comments?

[Ybbon]

Trash talking. I am the trash king!

need a full list of available smilies - there are more than shown here I'm sure of it...

[Shankbot de Bodemloze]

Click on [More] when you press go-advanced underneath the

Smilies

blah

bit.

[Ybbon]

Not there, I know about them, but I could swear there are others that I have seen used. Mega Tortas dB uses a whole suite of other ones. Ho hum.
[edit] Well at least I think he does, I could swear I've seen others, but I'll check

Anyway, sorry I've been quiet on the trash talking front for a few hours - unlike me I know, but I was trying to find someone who rates your chances of winning any of the 3 you're in Shanky.

I found him. He's called Jimmy Nine-Toes and he lives in the Australian Outback. He said "Fair dinkum, cobber, I reckon he has a chance, just like we have a chance of getting the Ashes back". Unfortunately, that comment proves he's been smoking some interesting recreational herbs and you shouldn't believe anything he says.

Note to any non Cricket loving readers, there is no chance whatsoever of Australia winning the Ashes

[Shankbot de Bodemloze]

It's funny you should mention that mate, I've just had the same conversation with someone called Fate, he doesn't think you have a chance to win.

EDIT: About the smilies, I'll ask Mega.

[Ybbon]

Ah, my old friend fate, yeah, see Franklin Roosevelt had this to say about that old charlatan: "Men are not prisoners of fate, but only prisoners of their own minds."

I firmly believe that you should tweak the nose of fate and kick the shin of destiny - your life will then be filled with an endless worry of whether you did a smart thing or not but at least you'll know you did it your way

[Shankbot de Bodemloze]

ybbon, you can say all this - but in the end I will win, and you will lose everything.

[Ybbon]

Everything? The stakes seem to have increased. was that in the small print?

Still, you are welcome to the poo patrol duty in my garden for the dog poo not cleaned up yet. I'll leave it there for you to collect. Got my mums dog staying for a few days too so 3 dogs worth.

[Shankbot de Bodemloze]

You need to learn to read this things.

[Maurits]

So, would a content staff person like to choose a nice pic for Paragon and me to duel about?

[Maurits]

So, Paragon, would you like to converse about a theme or would you prefer to duel about a TW-originated picture?

[Shankbot de Bodemloze]

Writers' Study Staff person, and yeah I'm on it.

[Shankbot de Bodemloze]

Here we go:



Good luck both of you. It is up to you to decide the theme.

[Maurits]

Why can't you guys look up some sort of normal picture to write about

As for a theme... what about something abstract like 'the golden rays of death'?

[Shankbot de Bodemloze]

I can do if you want?

[Ybbon]

When the duels are put up, is it possible to add the original picture to it as well?

[Shankbot de Bodemloze]

I'm sure robinzx can do that for you if you want, if not I'll post it with my comments.
