Year 4 Begins
im just wondering what are you doing on a site for kids besides reading and writing stories about a show for kids? ~ M TDM  19:12, February 10, 2013 (UTC)

why thank you C: - Love Jackkks ♥ , Peace  Δ  Δ  Δ  22:08, February 10, 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for the offer! I'd rather wait for it to finish, you know, to make it seem more "official". I'll make sure to tell you when it's finished. Manatee12 "The crackers were probably bad luck anyway." 13:24, February 12, 2013 (UTC)

A little info...
Manatee's fan-fic S.S. Total Drama is in the Final 2, so can you put that in Recently Finished Stories? The golden age of daily sigs has ended. (Talk | Blogs | Contributions) 03:56, February 14, 2013 (UTC)

P.S. I want to nominate said story for FS. Am I allowed to?

Hey Gideon, remember when you asked me if I wanted- *looks at comment above* Oh, nevermind. I'd like to ask you to put S.S. Total Drama Recently Finished Stories listing, since I finished it today. Manatee12 "The crackers were probably bad luck anyway." 18:39, February 15, 2013 (UTC)

No, not really. I think justa generic note saying it ended is good. Manatee12 "The crackers were probably bad luck anyway." 00:12, February 16, 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for reminding me that I forgot to unmark that as well. I originally intended to have my stories removed, but decided I couldn't bear to leave the wiki and erase all my work, and I do intend to unmark and complete Revelations as well. Thanks again for the notification. Got it memorized? Got what memorized?  I have no idea.  01:35, February 16, 2013 (UTC)

Hi, Gideon! I don't know if you read the first chapter of Total Drama: Hollywood Hotel while it was up, but I just wanted to ask if you were okay with your portrayal, as I am planning to reboot it. In case you didn't see, you were portrayed as an old man with quite a....way with words. All the users are loving parodies, though. I just wanted to make sure you were okay with that, as I recieved some backlash from other characters' portrayals. Thanks! We found dove in  a soapless place  ...  19:11, February 16, 2013 (UTC)

Why thank you. :] Love Me   ♥ or   Hate Me  03:54, February 17, 2013 (UTC)

Oh well actually, I did have in mind of having Lindsay and Harold having recurring appearances. And Aaron is actually from my story Totally Teen Island: Palau Style. Is that enough to keep the story? <font color="Teal">Fluffy pancakes being <font color="Orange">my only friend  <font color="Violet">is not scary.  21:07, February 18, 2013 (UTC)

Actually yes. Aaron is a protagonist from Palau and there will be references to the show. <font color="Teal">Fluffy pancakes being <font color="Orange">my only friend  <font color="Violet">is not scary.  06:40, February 19, 2013 (UTC)

It couldn't hurt to ask you if you could put Total Drama Flashback on the recently finished stories list, since it's at the finale chapter. Could you? Thanks! o wate u men blo ive?  yes sory i get dem mixed up,  i did perchese ur coluered child  21:08, February 20, 2013 (UTC)

Please do not ban "impersonators" who are solely on chat when you are not on chat yourself. It's causing a lot of drama right now, and I'm taking care of it. Thank you. -- I Cannot Believe  My Eyes...  21:09, February 23, 2013 (UTC)

I noticed that you banned the account Fadingsiiverstar16 for impersonation of a user for a year. While this would be a fine punishment under most circumstances, the user in control of the account, who created it, is Avery FireFlame, a well-established user who claims he didn't even know who Gigi was at the time he created the account. Basically, can we just have a rule for no making accounts that are impersonations of users? There's drama going on right now which could be saved if we had such a rule. Could that be an option? ALL WE WANNA DO IS EAT YOUR BRAINS It's nothing personal 21:35, February 23, 2013 (UTC)

You should take your rule into consideration as well. As you don't go on chat often, you shouldn't burden yourself with the users on chat; the on-chat chat mods can handle it if it's malicious. By the way, please go onto chat. -- I Cannot Believe  My Eyes...  21:35, February 23, 2013 (UTC)

Hi Gideon, hope your day is going well so far! Some users would like you to appear on the wiki chat, to discuss AveryFireFlame's ban. I'd appreciate it if you could make even a brief appearance to discuss your thoughts and reasoning for his ban. Hope you can make it! -- Anne Maria:  I was on   Canada's Next Top Model!  21:43, February 23, 2013 (UTC)

I'm glad to be back, Gideon. The FYE chapter is still a bit rough, so don't be surprised if you see me tweaking it throughout the week. At this point I'm just happy it's posted. I'm really going to need some time to catch up with what I've missed on the wiki. As of right now all I can see is a few users I don't quite recognize, another attempt at a Wiki Project, and a reemerging Survivor obsession that I want nothing to do with. Also, I saw that you started making TVTropes pages for your stories. I really hope I can catch up with LTDI soon, as when I looked at the page some of the tropes made me curious as to what I was missing.  Freefalling Lilacs:  Death to normalcy.  18:55, February 24, 2013 (UTC)

Ok Gideon, I've actually already read up to chapter 8 but I'll make sure to resume reading it immediately (at the moment I've been trying to read all the works of Sprink and have just finished Total Drama Athletics) but I can stall my Sprink marathon beacause I highly enjoyed FYE and I'll make sure to leave feedback!

Help please
Hello, Gideon. I need some help. Some jerk decided to delete Total Drama Extreme's page and replace it with "ccx" is there a way to block/ban that I.P adress form the wiki? Because it also vanalized Noah's talkpage and userpage. I have an idea of who I think it is, but I'm not entirely sure. -- Lulucas777 If we burn, you burn with us! - Katniss Everdeen 20:40, February 26, 2013 (UTC)

No, I wasn't planning to use it anymore. You can delete it. :) Thank you for blocking the I.P. -- Lulucas777 If we burn, you burn with us!  - Katniss Everdeen 01:00, February 27, 2013 (UTC)

Yeah, I know, but it's easier to access my blogs using this method than by scrolling through the "My Blogs" page.

I'll have to see with Jessica, because it was supposed to be a collab. -- Lulucas777 If we burn, you burn with us! - Katniss Everdeen 21:12, February 27, 2013 (UTC)

Hey. I'm just reminding you about this. Many of the opposes were that it has nothing to do with fan fictions (although it does, and that it belonged on the Camps wiki. I don't know if you know about this (yet), but Wikia user "EnTrey" has made a blog camp. A blog, emphasis, CAMP that has nothing to do with FAN FICTIONS, but it's still on here. And I'm afraid none of the staff care that a non-fan fiction related camp is being held on here, like most were back when I got my Fanart Game proposal passed. I would like you to do something about this, because I do believe that this is extremely unfair that mine was close to getting declined and he can just go right ahead and start a blog camp on a fan fiction wiki when we have a partnered camp wiki. I also think of this as a personal offense to me, because, let's not hide anything, it is pretty obvious that most of this wiki does not like me and still thinks of me as a ten-year old, except my three friends.

Thank you, and have a nice day. ~ <span style="color:darkblue; text-shadow: 0 0 0.2em #B8BEE0, 0 0 0.2em #B8BEE0, 0 0 0.2em #B8BEE0, 0 0 0.2em #B8BEE0">M <span style="color:lightpurple; text-shadow: 0 0 0.2em #B8BEE0, 0 0 0.2em #B8BEE0, 0 0 0.2em #B8BEE0, 0 0 0.2em #B8BEE0">T<span style="color:grey; text-shadow: 0 0 0.2em #B8BEE0, 0 0 0.2em #B8BEE0, 0 0 0.2em #B8BEE0, 0 0 0.2em #B8BEE0">D<span style="color:#FCDC3B; text-shadow: 0 0 0.2em #B8BEE0, 0 0 0.2em #B8BEE0, 0 0 0.2em #B8BEE0, 0 0 0.2em #B8BEE0">M  <span style="color:black; text-shadow: 0 0 0.2em #4682B4, 0 0 0.2em #4682B4, 0 0 0.2em #4682B4, 0 0 0.2em #4682B4">23:37, February 27, 2013 (UTC)

Hell, Gideon, I had to reread it. It feels good to write this story again, though I'm not sure how often I'll be able to. I pla to finish it, but at this rate I'll probably be married with kids by that time. Thanks for the support, it's good to "see" you again. Faith No More RIP MCA 03:49, March 2, 2013 (UTC)

Hi Gideon, I just wanted to say hey! I haven't been on for ever but I'm back now. I'll need to catch up on LTDI, though I was looking at your blogs. Congrats on you Jay's 10 year anniversary and your 3rd wiki anniversary. And that is so cool you have tropes pages! I'm going to read them like crazy!  Been there, done that. Got the t-shirt. Sold my soul, and yeah the truth hurts.  02:52, March 3, 2013 (UTC)

I read the Tenth Night this morning! I'm going to comment on all the chapters I'm behind on, and my goodness Gideon do you pull at my heartstrings and leave cliffhangers! I was so worried for Katie and Sadie. Hasn't Harold been enough :P

As for your tropes page, it's very incredible! I actually got a trope account today to see if I can help edit some of the TD fanfics on there. I've edited a little bit of LTDI, adding a few tropes from one of your blog. I hope that's all right, I thought I might help since you only had the A's so far.

I'm a bit worried I may have put them in the wrong place, but I don't think I did. I do love how you've organized it! I'll try and look up some tropes that I think could be added and run them by you.  Been there, done that. Got the t-shirt. Sold my soul, and yeah the truth hurts.  22:17, March 3, 2013 (UTC)

Hey Gideon I noticed that the page Mika is a canidate for deletion. Avi and I may use that name in an upcoming collab (depending on how Avi feels about it), I just wanted to know what the procedure is for using a page that is scheduled for deletion. Like would you delete it and then we just re-create it or otherwise, it's not definite I just wanted to know :) Space was here and he left something real special for ya! 01:09, March 5, 2013 (UTC)

Ok thanks Gideon! Space was here and he left something real special for ya! 20:26, March 5, 2013 (UTC)

I was wondering... What if, instead of choosing to display a ratings template (G, PG, PG-13, R) in a summarized form, for the whole story, rounded upward to the nearest factor, maybe if each of the chapters were long enough, we instead rate each chapter separately, just as is done for television? That way, we can account for random factors provided by select chapters without affecting the whole story. Tell me what you think. You can't have two hearts... unless you're pregnant or a Time Lord. (Talk | Blogs | Contributions) 05:09, March 6, 2013 (UTC)

Yeah, I noticed the featured quote theme and thought Dirk would be perfect. I'll have to hunt through the story for one, though there are several from the new chapter that I just posted that would fit. Thanks, Gidster. Faith No More RIP MCA 10:24, March 6, 2013 (UTC)

Hi Gideon, I had an idea for a future Featured Quote theme that I'd like to share. How about "Wild Kingdom" (any quote that has an animal tied into it). Please tell me what you think :) Space was here and he left something real special for ya! 13:13, March 8, 2013 (UTC)

Ok Gideon, I'll go back through and add that onto all of the pages I've put up for deletion. Thanks for pointing that out, I thought it just automaticaly displayed that when pages went up for deletion :) Space was here and he left something real special for ya! 03:18, March 9, 2013 (UTC)

It's quite alright though I was slightly confussed when you shortened the message. Also thanks for clearing up that issue, I thought I'd be yelled at for editing other peoples pages. Space was here and he left something real special for ya! 03:27, March 9, 2013 (UTC)

I haven't heard from GossipQueen in a long time, and I really doubt she's coming back. I think it's pretty safe to mark Twisted as dead. I'm glad to hear others returned too! I'm planning on making a blog post just putting out there that I'm back, but I'm hoping to come up with something else relevant to say before I do. It probably won't be out at least until the next chapter of FYE is, which won't be for at least another week since I really can't afford to rush this elimination.

Just a Question
Hi Gideon, I had a question concerning story reviews. I've read through them and I was wondering if there are any limitations on who could do them and what they can be done on. I really wanted to review a competition story I had come across to perhaps give it some more popularity (because it really deserves it). I also noticed that a review hasn't been made in about one to two years so I was wondering if they just weren't allowed entirely anymore? Space was here and he left something real special for ya! 01:16, March 11, 2013 (UTC)

To be quite honest, I probably thought it said "2011" and not "2012". My mistake. But, he has responded that he would like the page deleted. -- If your undies are tight, <font color="#D2691E">it's uncomfortable.

sorry for being a pain on this wikia, my friend told me about this and he told me i can name any page i want so i did as he told me, and do you have any pages for the rules? cause i cant qiuet find them... and i have 1 question, would you mind if i call them Total Drama Challenge/Episode etc.. cause i will be making other shows that will say "Total Drama Challenge: Rivals" "Total Drama Challenge: Battle of the Sexes" etc...

Thanks!
Thanks Gideon, I appreciate the support so much! I agree, I haven't been active enough recently, going to try and change that. I'm so sorry I haven't had a new TDWTH chapter yet, it has been far too long. I'm trying to finish and so I hope soon (next weekend hopefully) I'll have it posted. It's a long one once again but I really like it (though I've said that before in regards to other chapters and they've been iffy). I do have one part of it fully typed (I have other parts but there are parts in between that need typing). I can post that part up at the moment.

TDUMV needs an update too, but I'm not as worried since it is a side project and it's shorter, so easier to write. I do owe you those comments for LTDI and I'll try to post those soon! XD Sorry Gideon but thank you so very much for caring!  Been there, done that. Got the t-shirt. Sold my soul, and yeah the truth hurts.   18:50, March 29, 2013 (UTC)

XD I tried to vote in all the polls but every time I do the page reloads. That happens a lot when it comes to polls and me for some reason, but I usually just have to try again later. I'm glad you thought it was epic, I have a ninth night review halfway written which I will post soon along with a tenth night! Unfortunately I'm not sure I'll have the next TDWTH chapter by next weekend since next weekend is a contestant for one of the teams I'm on at school.

I'll see if I can add any tropes though you tend to get a lot of them (which is a good thing). I think you did mention before and I'm sorry I added that there. I'm going to try and be more careful :P I'm also sorry I didn't have proper enough context. How much is enough context?

I actually tried to start a TDWTH trope page, but I couldn't get a question mark to appear at the end of the article title so I decided to try and do it again later. I did get at least twenty tropes for the main page. I did have a bit of trouble since I mostly thought of character tropes but I did get bulk (including the ones you helped me with). If you could help me make the page it'd be much appreciated! Thanks again Gideon :)  Been there, done that. Got the t-shirt. Sold my soul, and yeah the truth hurts.   14:25, March 30, 2013 (UTC)

Now, as this message falls into the category of formal apology, I will treat it as such.

Sorry Gid-dude. I didn't mean to be a- for lack of a better word- hoobodoobler.

Trey. It's short for Treyquisha. 02:03, April 2, 2013 (UTC)

Well I've got sort of good news! I have a Tropes page! It needs some more tropes but I'll add them and a character page soon. It doesn't have a ? and sometimes comes up with a funny name but it's there and I'm happy! I also finished more of WTH than expected so I'm gonna add two parts to the preview update and I'm not positive but I maybe able to finish the chapter!

Also, a minor thing but the trope Confession Cam is a trope I found that you may wanna add to LTDI. I didn't know to add it because I'm not sure where you'd want it to go. You may not because as a remake of TDI it kind of goes without saying.-- Been there, done that. Got the t-shirt. Sold my soul, and yeah the truth hurts.   02:19, April 2, 2013 (UTC)

Just also wanted to say sorry for messing up the talk page earlier XD  Been there, done that. Got the t-shirt. Sold my soul, and yeah the truth hurts.   02:31, April 2, 2013 (UTC)

First thank you so much for helping me with my Tropes page! I appreciate it so very much, especially because I know you're so busy! It looks better and the tips are super helpful! I tried to do a little editing before school but the edits you've done are really nice looking. I saw your PMs and am planning on replying soon. Thank you sooooooooo much! :)

Also, I thought of another trope that could be added, Comically Missing The Point. I'm positive at least Lindsay or the Wonder Twins have done something along those lines. You may already have an idea in mind from a later chapter and are saving it but if I can think of one I'll try and add.  Been there, done that. Got the t-shirt. Sold my soul, and yeah the truth hurts.   02:18, April 3, 2013 (UTC)

XD Of course I did. I've been trying to follow the directions on changing it but the issue is that I need to create the new page. But every time I type in the url Fanfic/TotalDramaWhatTheHeck it brings me to the current page and I'm not sure how to get around this. I'm also worried that the question mark will not follow the new page, though I suppose I'll have to custom-name it again.  Been there, done that. Got the t-shirt.

Oh, I get what you're saying. I think I'll put Revolution back on the Modern Classics page, I don't necessarily dislike it, I just think Tokyo is a little better-written. I think Rev and Tokyo are pretty different, Rev is basically slapstick comedy and that's it, while Tokyo has more of a plot to move it along. But yeah, I'll put back Revolution, and leave Tokyo on there for now. Thanks for the help, though! Green eyes glare,  pirates sitting in the captain's chair.

Hey Gideon! Remember me? Yeah, probably not :)

I'm not sure yet. I've expanded as writer and still have a lot of projects up my sleeve for fandoms other than TDI. But I'm definitley back to maybe read/review stories on her :D
