Welcome
Hi, welcome to Total Drama Island Fanfiction wikia! Thanks for your edit to the User:Gideoncrawle page.

Please leave a message on my talk page if I can help with anything! -- Sprinklemist (Talk) 04:44, February 8, 2010

Uhh... welcome to the Wiki! I've read both chapters of Legacy, and you seem like a great writer. It's always great to have a new author here, despite the age (We do have two users over the age of eighteen, one of them hasn't been on in a long time though.)

I'd recommend commenting on other stories on the site via their talk pages in order to get your name out, and henceforth, the number of people who read your stories. Speaking of which, some good fics on here are: Life After Lies, by Fadingsilverstar16, all three of Sprinklemist's competition fics, and my one-shot Violet Hill, which people say is good, even though I don't think so.

Really? Fake Souls? I quit doing that a long time ago, but hey, you're more than welcome to write a chapter for it. Also, I'm going to have a one-shot of my own done maybe by... I'd say Thursday or Friday, in case you're interested. Tdirm- Semi-Legendary  Mockery!   NIRVANA EVERYWHERE!  12:08, February 15, 2010 (UTC)

Hey Gideon (can i call you that?) I find it interesting that I sorta guessed/ wrote some part of Legacy, as I wasn't thinking of it at the time. Im glad you contributed to Fake Souls, and you can call me Reddy, or just Red, since it is rare I'm called RD. But, i hope you keep writing! And can you add yourself as a friend of mine on my user page? :) Reddude 22:58, February 16, 2010 (UTC)

Hi! I just wanted to welcome you to the wiki! I'm sure we'll anjoy many fanfics from you! :) Nalyd Renrut - Legendary  Snipe!  Master of epic pwnage 23:24, February 16, 2010 (UTC)

They're just there for "warm fuzzies," as you put it. Don't worry if you don't add them as a friend. Nalyd Renrut - Legendary Snipe! Master of epic pwnage 03:12, February 18, 2010 (UTC)

Hi! I'm Fadingsilverstar16, but you can call me Gigi. Welcome to the wiki! I find Legacy very, very intriguing. You're style of writing is very unusual for this day and age. It almost sounds as if you're from century, and I don't find that to be a bad thing. There's a sense of elegance to it that one day I hope to achieve with my own writing. You know, you could be writing books. If you would allow me, I'd like to ask you a bit more about your writing, but only if you want to. Again, welcome and I hope you have a good time here! -- I sing the song of the fading  silver star...  04:56, March 1, 2010 (UTC)

Ummm... sure, I guess. Thanks for your opinion, I find my writing style so undetailed to me that I don't get how people like it... must be just me. Anyway, that TDI reimagining you talked a bit about in Legacy, is it coming to this site? I already have my hopes up that Courtney might actually win a competiton for once... Tdirm- Semi-Legendary  Mockery!   NIRVANA EVERYWHERE!  20:49, March 1, 2010 (UTC)

Thank you! Don't worry, I don't intend to bombard you with a mountain of questions. I think my writing's incredibly ameteur (I just know I'm doing something wrong), so if you have a few tips, I'd be glad to hear them. Also, what drew you to this wiki in the first place, and what do you think of the fanfiction here? -- I sing the song of the fading  silver star...  07:06, March 6, 2010 (UTC)

You're welcome. Thank you for creating that story. Thing is, could you give me some tips? I have gotten a lot better than what I first started, but I still want to get better. Alo, are you planning on doing a competition fic? I think you'd be good at it. If you need someone to draw those characters, there are a lot of great artist out there.

You just need 100 total edits to vote. Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 15:07, March 6, 2010 (UTC)

Argh! I hate it when I do stuff like that. I knew it meant big size, but I saw the term used like that, so I then assumed it could also mean of great quality. Tdirm- Semi-Legendary  Mockery!   NIRVANA EVERYWHERE!  16:55, March 6, 2010 (UTC)

That's okay, I fully understand. :) Goldenshane 19:10, March 6, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for the reply! I'll definitely give those title suggestions some thought, and I'll have to check out that "Fake Souls" chapter you did. Also, I'm very grateful that you checked out LAL and the rest of my stories, and would love to know what you think of them (I have a sinking sensation that it might fall into the "why-did-they-bother" quality category, although that just might be me). And yeah, I do tend to prefer noncompetition fics to competition was, so I know where you're coming from. Again, thank you for your answers! -- I sing the song of the fading  silver star...  05:34, March 7, 2010 (UTC)

A writing class? Cool, I'd love to participate. Cultural fondness for big things? *thinks of SUV's of yore, McMansions, and food portions* Yup, that's right. Anyways, what exactly do you think ofmy writing style? Too bleak? Chokingly purple? I really want to know. Tdirm- Semi-Legendary  Mockery!   NIRVANA EVERYWHERE!  21:13, March 7, 2010 (UTC)

the sky is blue because of the amount of water droplets. xD Ill be sure to come! I really need tips toimprove my writing a bunch (i can say im not very good) and hopefully give a couple tips! ^^ Reddude Has... [| Waffles!! :)] [| and SYRUP!] 21:22, March 7, 2010 (UTC)

Ello, Gideon. I'm Spenny, and it's great to "meet" you, LOL. -- ☆ HERE'S SPENNY!!   Oh wait, I gotta go!   Cya(n)!  21:32, March 7, 2010 (UTC)

Question and example works, it does get the job done, xD. Grasshoppers... never heard that term before. Does it mean friends or something? (I'm only 14, xD) I would love to join! BTW, I don't think anyone here is an expert at writing professionally. That's kind of why we're here. xD -- ☆ HERE'S SPENNY!!   Oh wait, I gotta go!   Cya(n)!  22:53, March 7, 2010 (UTC)

Oh okay. Thanks for the explanation of what you meant by Grasshoppers. -- ☆ HERE'S SPENNY!!   Oh wait, I gotta go!   Cya(n)!  23:11, March 7, 2010 (UTC)

-Yeah, the confidence thing is something I've been needing to work on. v.v But in complete honesty, I definitely don't want to look like I'm fishing for compliments all the time, so I'll try to improve in that department. I have a book called the Writer's Personal Therapist that I seriously need to read all the way through. So thanks for that comment. I needed that. ^-^

-I'll be happy to take whatever comments you might have for Screwed or anything else I've written. The more the merrier!

-And about the rest of what you said, I agree. The Courtney hate I've seen from this fandom is baffling to me. She was never really my favorite character, but I don't hate her and never will. I'll be interested to read "Courtney and the Violin of Despair".

-I'll go read that blog post right now! Thanks! -- I sing the song of the fading  silver star...  05:53, March 9, 2010 (UTC)

I added you, sorrt Gideon, I was planning on adding you sooner. XD You were always planned to be there, though! I just, procrastinated. XD Goldenshane 13:26, March 10, 2010 (UTC)

I'd be happy to participate. I'm sure there's more than one thing I can still learn, but for me there's a few things that could be achieved by the younger writers here, that I've noticed. Anyway, it can be really encouraging for your first story to receive positive feedback. That's what happened for my first story on here, and that helped me want to keep going. Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 15:51, March 10, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for the suggestions! If you look on LAL's talk page, TDIRM and I have made an entire LAL playlist (which really needs more songs added to it). There's voting for the official theme song on there. (I'm currently rooting for Arrival to Earth, which is my second favorite song in the whole world. My favorite song is Rebirthing, which is also an option, but I kind of get a kick out of LAL having a theme song that doesn't have lyrics.) Your song suggestion certainly is interesting, though! I've never seen anything like it, and it really does fit the Organization. Thank you so much for the offer to write a fic out of them, but I think I'll have to take you up on that a little later.

I'll tell you a secret. You see, I've been playing around with the idea of doing a complete rewrite of the whole story (once it's over, of course) with new characters, a revised storyline, and a more fleshed-out, developed world. Do you think the idea is original enough to actually make a book, or is it unrealistic? -- I sing the song of the fading  silver star...  17:01, March 11, 2010 (UTC)

Hey Gideon, why do you refer to yourself as the "evil man" on your userpage? -- ☆ HERE'S SPENNY!!   Oh wait, I gotta go!   Cya(n)!  05:55, March 12, 2010 (UTC)

Thank you for explaining it. I can't believe I didn't recognize that you're a fan of opera, LOL. (the link you placed on my talk page said that Ruddygore was an opera) While I wouldn't consider myself a fan of opera, (the only one I saw was Les Miserables, and my parents are unsure whether it's an Opera or a musical) I do love musicals. I am considering starting a fanfic that's a TDI/"Total Fanfiction" parody of Wicked, except maybe with a slightly different plot. ("Total Fanfiction" pretty much means that the characters are mostly original characters from other fanfictions, an example being Total Fanfiction Crossover) However, for now, it remains an idle idea that I am still toying with, unsure what to do with. Oh well.

By the way, I saw that you've been following the newsletters somewhat, as you mentioned my Total Drama High School review, which I wrote for the newsletter. With your unique, descriptive writing style, you'd probably write really good reviews for a future newsletter entry. I'm just putting that idea on the table, in case it sparks something. -- ☆ HERE'S SPENNY!!   Oh wait, I gotta go!   Cya(n)!  22:47, March 12, 2010 (UTC)

Uh, wow. You hit the nail on the head, I must say. I have thought about all of those problems (the Organization and how it works) and if I were to write a book about the whole ordeal, I assure you that I would address everything you brought up in full detail. The plot would be more developed, all of the characters would be original, and the world building would be handled a lot better than I did this first time around. I've been playing with the idea of an Organizaition like the one in LAL for a while, now. I consider the actual story kind of a "first draft" of sorts, just to sort of practice and help develop the story in my head. I would tell you some ideas I have, but I'd rather keep them to myself for now. Thank you for the reply and the compliment! I'll definitely look back at this time and time again as I work with LAL. You're awesome! :) -- I sing the song <font color="#c0c0c0">of the fading  <font color="#800080">silver star...  01:22, March 13, 2010 (UTC)

I'm very much looking forward to TDI-G&S. If Legacy is any indication of what's yet to come, then I'm looking forward to anything you're writing, LOL.

You're right, I have been on Gigi's talk page. Whenever I see an edit made on someone's talk page, my curiosity gets the best of me, and I end up seeing what was posted. I did see the suggestion for LAL's theme song, and her reaction. I too think it's a good choice.

And, thank you for the information regarding Operas. Though, I never really viewed the Les Miserables soundtrack as pop music at all, however I suppose one can interpret it as such. I'll think of that the next time I think of that "Popera", as you call it. I haven't seen Phantom of the Opera, partly because my mother (who got me into musicals in the first place) didn't like it.

I'll be looking forward to that blog about TDI-G&S. -- ☆ HERE'S SPENNY!!   Oh wait, I gotta go!   Cya(n)!  01:27, March 13, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, that was another thing I thought about, but I was way too far into the when it crossed my mind, and it's a bit too late to go and change that crucial bit. Next time I'll take in every little detail and I'll definitely do my research on how to make the whole thing work. Again, thanks. ^-^;;;; -- <font color="#808080">I sing the song <font color="#c0c0c0">of the fading  <font color="#800080">silver star...  05:47, March 13, 2010 (UTC)

I realized that XD. Well thanks for telling me anyways. So Yeah...-- Ken zen   Elev  en!  03:22, March 14, 2010 (UTC)

Hey, just out of curiosity, have you been following any stories on the wiki besides LAL? -- ☆ HERE'S SPENNY!!   Oh wait, I gotta go!   Cya(n)!  04:04, March 14, 2010 (UTC)

I read it, it had a more distant feel than Legacy did, using words like "pleasantries", where you can hear the older man narrating the story. I never felt that way with Legacy. I'll be starting a competition story soon if you're interested. It's called Total Drama: The Works. I'm also working on a fix called I'll Always Be There, which takes place at Playa Des losers. The main characters are Eva, and will be, Noah. I'm just letting you know incase you're interested in reading. I always found competition stories easier ti follow from the start than from the middle. -- ☆ HERE'S SPENNY!!   Oh wait, I gotta go!   Cya(n)!  04:33, March 14, 2010 (UTC)

Though I gotta say, I loved the epilogue in your Fake Souls chapter xD -- ☆ HERE'S SPENNY!!   Oh wait, I gotta go!   Cya(n)!  04:42, March 14, 2010 (UTC)

Cool, I'll be looking forward to your comments on "I'll Always Be There". I'll also be looking forward to any reviews you might make in the future. As I have said to Gigi before, take your time, I can wait, but I look forward to it.

Personally, I enjoy writing description more than dialogue. I enjoy setting scenes, and describing actions, but description only lasts so long before dialogue has to kick in. At times, though, especially with Total Drama Infinity, a very dark competition story that I recently finished, I found myself writing whole paragraphs of description before I can get to dialogue. It's moments like those I enjoy most in writing.

You say you didn't think you had it in you? I've heard THAT before quite a few times, from Gigi regarding LAL. -- ☆ HERE'S SPENNY!!   Oh wait, I gotta go!   Cya(n)!  15:37, March 14, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for letting me know about the voting thing. I appreciate it. =) IHeartTDInTDA 22:56, March 14, 2010 (UTC)

Well, if you have grounds on which to compare a story, well, I actually don't know how to finish that sentence. You make a very good point, and I'm afraid that the whole comparison thing is pretty much a law of the land.

As for Legacy as FS, I'd vote to support it in a heat beat, but timing is a valid issue. I'm a little surprised that LAL got so many support votes under such bad timing, but I'm pretty sure that it's the only story that could pull that off. When a story is about to end or just ended, it gets more votes and usually wins. And, if you're going the Featured Story route, I'd also suggest nominating yourself for featured author as well. -- ☆ HERE'S SPENNY!!   Oh wait, I gotta go!   Cya(n)!  11:30, March 15, 2010 (UTC)

By how many views/visits the page received. Unfortunately, this function no longer works on any wiki, as it is no longer updated. So what you see is the most visited pages about five months ago. Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 12:51, March 15, 2010 (UTC)

Thank you! I'm honored to have another support vote for LAL and the awesome art Sunny drew me! Also, I did check out the preview of TDI-G&S. It's fantastic. I can't wait for more! :) -- <font color="#808080">I sing the song <font color="#c0c0c0">of the fading  <font color="#800080">silver star...  04:41, March 16, 2010 (UTC)

Sure, I wouldn't mind at all! Thanks again for your votes. It makes me very happy to know people still care about my little fanfiction. :3 -- <font color="#808080">I sing the song <font color="#c0c0c0">of the fading  <font color="#800080">silver star...  04:55, March 16, 2010 (UTC)

I took a look at the Most Visited Page and it seems like it started up, again. It just doesn't seem like the five months that it wasn't working were updated, so the top stories aren't very accurate, but it seems like current ones are moving on up. Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 14:45, March 16, 2010 (UTC)

Yes, the rule for having all chapters on one page means what it says. It's a very old rule that the admins should proably take into consideration in the near future, as really long stories take longer load times. I'm not sure what you mean about the fact that it would change how you plan to do your story, so if you could eplain what you mean, it would let me help you. As for those photos, it sort of feels like an invasion of their privacy. I've drawn a picture of a stranger, based on a photograph, but didn't upload the actual photograph as that is kind of none of my business to do (plus I don't own rights to that photo). Even if you didn't post their names or locations, it still seems like you are deciding to post those pictures on here for them, even though you no doubt have rights to the photographs. I honestly don't know what else to tell you, but those girls probably had no intent for those pictures to be used in that way. I hope those answers help in some way. Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 14:45, March 18, 2010 (UTC)

The size of a page has been a concern of mine for quite a while. What I would suggest is just to see how it goes, and if people experience difficulties with load times we'll see if we can change the rule to "unless the story is gigantic". I have to go at the moment, but maybe I can finish my reply later. Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 04:01, March 19, 2010 (UTC)

Continuing my last message, the PDF is not supported here (to my knowledge), but I think a link to your friend's general interest site should be okay (I suppose depending on the content of that site, but I'm assuming its kid friendly). I would suggest for the version you post here adding essential screenshots from the actual episodes, perhaps only a few per chapter. Pictures don't take up a lot of file space on a page but they add to load times, and judgingby the fact that you have quite a few to add, it would probably take far too long for even fast(ish) computers to load. Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 04:28, March 19, 2010 (UTC)

Sorry, my talk page gets used quite frequently, so I miss some messages on it, sometimes. "Popular pages" is how many edits a page receives, as opposed to visits. Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 02:21, March 20, 2010 (UTC)

Okay, I'll make a blog post about it (with the details you provided) for the other admins to discuss (probably tomorrow), and then we'll reach a decision and let you know. I'd rather do that than be the sole person to make the decision. Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 03:16, March 20, 2010 (UTC)

Hey Gideon, Just asking Ok do you have any advice for writing particularity my writing There are story links on my page if you want to read a chapter of one of my story's...-- Ken zen   Elev  en!  03:22, March 20, 2010 (UTC)

I see i have been getting out of my past format and have tried what i see popular. I have been trying to give more detail in speech and actions. I never understood the rule about paragraphs and speakers, I never see right to make a new paragraph just so i can switch speakers. Like most of my writing i see it difficult to understand real rule of speech, punctuation and grammar. When writing i also see it to have every person talk witch most writers seem to do but never get every person in unless it is seeming the finals. Though i seem to also have trouble writing as many words as i want such as i want to write 2000 words i only seem to muster 1200, that like a lot of what i just said was unrelated to the advice XD Ken zen   Elev  en!  05:31, March 20, 2010 (UTC)

Well when you go to the sidebar on the right where it says "Total Drama Island Fanfiction Wiki" and "Go Through Our Library" there is a section that says community. Then you put your mouse over top authors Then Sprink, Nalyd, Spenny, Nonny, Bocaj910, TDIwriter, and Shane will show up and at the bottom it says more... and there will be a list of the 25 authors who have the most edits. Was that confusing? Fanfiction2010 ☆Legendary  Unison buddies!!!   BUNDLES OF ODDNESS EVERYWHERE!  13:18, March 20, 2010 (UTC)

The admins have come to a decision. Four out of five (Sunshine just didn't reply) agree to let you post the pictures in a gallery on your userpage. You can see the decision here, if you want: admin decision. Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 17:49, March 22, 2010 (UTC)

That sounds very interesting! I'll be sure to have a look at all of those stories you mentioned. There are a couple stories that I've been interested in reading a couple of other stories, first, though, so it may be a while before I get to look at then. -- Hey, it's Anonymos!

Me, the wiki's best artist? Pshaw. There's plenty of great artists on here, I'm only really recognized because my style is so different from everyone elses'. I'd be honored to do some art for Legacy at some point (exactly when is up in the air, as I have *counts* a lot of fanfics I should probably be working on... XD). In response to your description of me, I haven't a clue how I became a "big name" on the wiki... -- Sunshineandravioli- Legendary  Pixie!   RAVIOLI EVERYWHERE!  22:00, March 24, 2010 (UTC)

I suppose we do have that in common, yes. :) Of course it's not too early for the friends list, I'll add you onto mine as soon as possible. On another note, have you prehaps read any of my fanfictions? I'd be honored to see what someone with such obvious skill as yourself thinks of my work. :) -- Sunshineandravioli- Legendary  Pixie!   RAVIOLI EVERYWHERE!  21:20, March 25, 2010 (UTC)

If I may ask, why do you prefer noncompetition stories (with canon characters in central roles, in your words) to competition stories? Is it just because of a lack of time at hand for now, (noncompetition stories are usually shorter and easier to follow than competition stories) or is there another reason? -- ☆ HERE'S SPENNY!!

I'll think about that when I write Total Drama: The Works, my next competition story. What you're saying is to describe a character before he/she is introduced to the other characters, or something? Just making sure... And I notice you read Diary, LOL -- ☆ HERE'S SPENNY!!   Oh wait, I gotta go!   Cya(n)!  01:14, March 26, 2010 (UTC)

Hey Gideon, I have a quick question about Total Drama Infinity and my upcoming competition story, do you think I should do what I did in Infinity in regards to the first chapter (everyone on a boat heading to the location of the competition) or like TDI/ my first competition fic (everyone, one-by-one, getting off of a boat/bus and having a short scene that focuses on them)? -- ☆ HERE'S SPENNY!!   Oh wait, I gotta go!   Cya(n)!  02:55, March 26, 2010 (UTC)

Cool, thanks for the suggestion! I'm not sure if it's very "LAL-ish" but I do like the song! I'm always a sucker for lyricless music. Have you heard of Future World Music, X-Ray Dog, and Two Steps From Hell? They do pieces that tend to vary in length for movie trailers, and they're all pretty much lyric-free. Also, I've taken a liking to this one, and I think it would be a good theme for "LAL 2.0". What do you think? -- <font color="#808080">I sing the song <font color="#c0c0c0">of the fading  <font color="#800080">silver star...  16:20, March 27, 2010 (UTC)

Actually, I worded it wrong. It is instrumentals I'm talking about. For some reason, I blanked and couldn't find the right word, although I do like wordless voice, too! Most of the songs that fall into the "lyric-less" category that I listen to have choirs in it, now that I think about it. I don't really listen to classical as much as I should (I really need to start looking up some good symphonies one of these days), but I do have a couple on my iPod. I also like movie score music, like the "Transformers" or "Pocahontas" scores.

Anyway, I'm getting ahead of myself. Thanks for the music suggestion! If you see anything else you think might fit LAL, please don't hesitate to tell me! -- <font color="#808080">I sing the song <font color="#c0c0c0">of the fading  <font color="#800080">silver star...  03:40, March 28, 2010 (UTC)

Cool! I'd love to hear any and all suggestions. I'm open to everything! Also, the symphonies I currently have on my iPod are The Firebird Suite and Beethoven's Symphony Number 5, both from the Fantasia 2000 soundrack as I am a huge Disney nerd, especially when it comes to their music. As for my favorite instruments, I like piano because I'm actually decent at playing it, and I also love violins.-- <font color="#808080">I sing the song <font color="#c0c0c0">of the fading  <font color="#800080">silver star...  04:21, March 28, 2010 (UTC)

Okay, I'm a talk-page snoop, we both know that, but in my defense, grounds to compare/review by make evaluating a story a LOT easier... -- ☆ HERE'S SPENNY!!   Oh wait, I gotta go!   Cya(n)!  05:12, March 30, 2010 (UTC)

Good advice regarding comparisons and commentary. Even without Legacy as a factor though, I didn't like Dragon Queen that much, mainly because of that distant feel it gave at times. Though, I did love the epilogue, the rest... wasn't my cup of tea, if you know what I'm saying. -- ☆ HERE'S SPENNY!!   Oh wait, I gotta go!   Cya(n)!  03:53, March 31, 2010 (UTC)

Makes me wonder if TDI-G&S will get a reaction like Legacy or like Dragon Queen. -- ☆ HERE'S SPENNY!!   Oh wait, I gotta go!   Cya(n)!  04:13, March 31, 2010 (UTC)

If that has anything to do with Gwen's death, then I must warn you that death isn't that new to fanfics here. If you wanna know why, the answer lies in a later chapter of Total Drama Infinity. =P -- ☆ HERE'S SPENNY!!   Oh wait, I gotta go!   Cya(n)!  04:32, March 31, 2010 (UTC)

What about Legacy, which takes place in an alternate storyline where Gwen dies? That was what I was referring to... -- ☆ HERE'S SPENNY!!   Oh wait, I gotta go!   Cya(n)!  05:30, March 31, 2010 (UTC)

i plan on bringing it back, and i do have a copy. I just had too much on my plate at the time. dont worry Gideon. ;) Reddy loves to talk and blog.Oh yes he did!!! 02:51, April 3, 2010 (UTC)

Teehee, I guess crying rainbows is a very anime-type thing, isn't it? Hopefully I'll get to do it more often. Again, thanks so much for the playlist!

I just wanted to say hi for no reason. Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 03:27, April 8, 2010 (UTC)

I did take a look at it, but I don't remember commenting. It's a very nice idea, and a very nice thing for you to do. Though I enjoy listening to modern songs, now, I do enjoy 'oldies', as well, and exclusikely listened to them about ten years ago. I avoid the radio, as my favorite genre is rarely played, but I do like some opera and classical music, as well. I do like G&S stuff, but not to the degree of listening to it on a regular basis. A lot has to be said about songs that keep a fast pace, and have a lot words, while still remaining a reasonable length. I really enjoy songs like that, so I'll have to give that song a listen.

I was thinking about what I could possibly provide to your writing workshop, as I'm not always very confident in my writing ability. I do think, now, that I can contribute. My style is what a lot of other writers here are similar to. I don't like to write overly complicated things, and I feel my style is more reasonably suited for television, as opposed to a book. I still feel like this style can pack a lot of depth, meaningful dialogue, and food for thought, but it is more tricky to accomplish and to pull off naturally in a seemingly comedic/light story. I think I can give tips as to how to pull that off for those interested, and also to consider not going too far/keeping your audience in mind. Hopefully that will help someone, and they'll be interested. I figure they would be, as I do get asked for my advice semi-often. I think you and I write two completely different kinds of stories, so I think we could compliment each other quite well, and I'm also bound to learn from you, for sure. Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 04:08, April 8, 2010 (UTC)

I guess I can relate, as my first story on here, Total Drama: Boney Island, was bit different from the other stories on here, so it received a lot of praise early on. I wanted each chapter to be probable as an actual episode. Now it seems there are more stories like it on here.

I'm not sure of the exact name, but I do greatly enjoy the "I am the very model of a modern major general" song. When I saw it performed, the man singing stumbled a little bit, which I'm sure happens often, but he got cheers when he picked up and was able to finish.

I re-read your FS chapter, Gideon, and this time, I loved it. My only gripe is that the American names are never mentioned at all, so I didn't know right away that the girl on the same flight as the girl who had to play Heather was indeed Gwen. Aside from that, though, I loved it! The distant feel is gone now... And I must say, it's a lot less dark than Legacy, which resonates well with other users here. -- D J   Spen  star!  01:49, April 10, 2010 (UTC)

Strange that we should send each other messages at roughly the same time... -- D J   Spen  star!  01:50, April 10, 2010 (UTC)

Hey Gideon, quick question about TDI-G&S: will it use the "Gwen's Death" storyline version that Legacy used, or will it stay true to the canon version? -- D J   Spen  star!  15:36, April 11, 2010 (UTC)

Okay, good to know. In the preview, I suspected that Gwen wouldn't know that she was wounded until after the EPCH ran off, thus making that part outside the reaches of the preview. -- D J   Spen  star!  16:28, April 11, 2010 (UTC)

Hm...
I'm sorry about the problems that you're having, and I'll talk to Sprink about them ASAP. Anyways, five new songs?? That's awesome! I can't wait to see them. TDI-G&S is sounding more and more wonderful each time you talk about it, too. That's okay that it's taking a while to do. I know it'll be worth it in the end. :) -- <font color="#808080">I sing the song <font color="#c0c0c0">of the fading  <font color="#800080">silver star...  14:39, April 12, 2010 (UTC)

I sent you a response a few days ago, but I guess you didn't get it. I'll try again. Also, I would love to hear suggestions for LAL 2.0. I have a few ideas that I've been wanting to talk to someone about, too. Also, over 70 minutes of music for the LAL-G&S playlist??? Wow. Fantastic!

Hey, Gideon, I like your story, and I might as well introduce myself, I'm KoopaKidJr. AKA Koops or KKJ. Not to sound like I'm advertising, but since you let me know about Legacy, I'll let you know about Total Drama Chaos. Hope you enjoy, and sorry for MIL BTW. -- Koops is here!

Alright, enjoy when you have a chance. Oh and I hope you don't mind me editing your friend list. XD -- Koops is here!   Let's sit down and talk!   What I do here!   Let's blog! 

Sounds like a great idea, though the part with the contestants all being 40-50 years old might be a turn-off to some. I really look forward to it if you do decide to use the idea. -- D J   Spen  star!  21:15, April 18, 2010 (UTC)

Thank you....I'm feeling like I should bow, is that normal? I'm so honored that you like my chapter. I think my writing is pretty bad...but apparently the rest of the community does.

And as you already know, I'm a pyro. I'm not the type that would, say, set the Empire State Building on fire...I'm just naturally attracted to fire.

Also, another thing you should know about me is my various "teen girl" obsessions. Sunshine has a great deal of them too...but mine are a little more spread out, ranging from Shadow the Hedgehog of the Sonic series to Noah, to Ira of [[Total Drama Time Travel].

And before I go, I'd like you to know that I read the Writer's Workshop, and was incredibly interested. I'm going to try dabbling in that style occasionaly. Show me how to lie,  you're getting better   all the time...  03:57, April 19, 2010 (UTC)

Thank you for adding yourself to my friend list. I do strongly consider you one, as you are very well respected by me.

Hi Gideon, I read your message. First off, I think its great that someone your age watches TDI. I agree with the idea that as long as a show is well written, there should be no restrictions as to who watches it. Anyway, thanks for the resource suggestion you posted on my page. I've been told that I'm a good writer, but I'm in no way an expert, so I'm sure I have a lot to learn from you. I'll be sure to check that out, and I'll also be sure to read your stories, which I'm sure are as great as everyone says. Thanks for taking the time to type all of that on my page, and I look forward to reading your work! -Lalainee 23:54, April 24, 2010 (UTC)

Oh no, she'll be so disappointed once she actually starts watching it. TDA was so dry to me, especially towards the end. For me, after the eliminations of Heather, Leshawna, Justin, and Lindsay, I became less excited week after week for new episodes. I'm hoping the third season will be better. -Lalainee 03:54, April 25, 2010 (UTC)

Hi Gideon! Sorry if I haven't been responding to your messages; I went away for the weekend and I just got back today. I know you weren't buttering me up (oh, how I love that expression) when you said our writing styles were similar -- on the contrary, I was quite flattered, especially since you're considerably more experienced and mature than I. So yes, I'm really interested in reading your work, and I'll get to it as soon as I get the chance. Read you soon. CamperThirteen 18:23, April 26, 2010 (UTC)

Hey Gideon. I'm not too comfortable with telling you everything, but I have to leave because this guy was after us and we killed him this weekend and now these other guys are after us and we need to get to this one place on the other side of the country.

Honest Request
We've talked recently, mostly about my error in the Featured Story page, if you can call it an 'error'. The story is called Total Drama the New Challenge. I've...tried to get people to read it and tell me what they thought of it. So far, only Sprinklemist has read a part of it, and won't read any more for the moment, due to certain aspects in the story. While that's all right, I'd like to actually know what other people have to say about it. Whcih finally brings me to my point. Since you've been on this Earth much longer than I have, and have a really great story that I have yet to check out, would it be at all possible for you to check out my story? You don't have to, but I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks, and if you could respond, that would be awesome. UltimateTORINOR 20:36, May 12, 2010 (UTC)

I checked out Legacy, as per your request. It's really great, and I've left reviews in the discussion page of the story. While some are willing to say that this is just a "good story", I like to go more in depth with reviews. So they're a little long. And when I do eventually get to 100 edits, I'll definitely vote in Legacy's favor! I have two more chapters to finish, and I think they're going to be awesome! UltimateTORINOR 20:24, May 13, 2010 (UTC)

And thanks for telling me about the Special Pages thing, I had absolutely no idea that even existed. UltimateTORINOR 20:25, May 13, 2010 (UTC)

Sweet! I'll be sure to finish the story in the next few days, I promise! And yes, like many others, I'm sure, I believe that, if Total Drama Island wasn't copyrighted, you would be able to publish Legacy. Sad stories are my favorite, as they appeal much more to your deeper emotions. UltimateTORINOR 03:30, May 14, 2010 (UTC)

Though you may know not a lot about me, I know a lot about you. It's nice to meet you. I just noticed I put the wrong thing XD, I will fix that. Anyways I write the sotry "Total Drama Celebrities" which has a good chapter between 2-present, the first chapter was really bad XD.

You're story was pretty good, but it's kind of sad for me because my favorite character was slain. I totally would vote for this as featured story, but I don't think I can vote because I didn't edit enough. You can probobly figure out who my favorite character is by looking at my user name.

My Mom's just paranoid. I'm glad adults can respect this show. It's just as underrated as The Simpsons is overrated. My Dad's a fan of the show, and he's about your age, so it doesn't bother me.

Yeah, you have a point there. I guess I was concerned because you seem to have a larger fanbase than I do, which is understandable because you write some epic stuff, whereas I do not.

Oh yeah, I saw those! I haven't really listened to the songs themselves, but the lyrics are mostly fitting for the cast. I think I was a little confused regarding Lindsay's though, would you mind explaining it to me?- The Anonymous User 01:37, June 7, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, I know about the signature thing, and have tried to get it to work, but I find it annoying to make a custom one, and it has failed. I suppose I could make a boring one, but I am far too lazy right now. I will maybe do it later. Thanks for letting me know though.- The Anonymous User 01:59, June 7, 2010 (UTC)

In an oddly poetic coincedence (I knew I spelled that wrong!), I was just reading B2G.

It's the computer. It's a big white Dell. It took five minutes for the page to fully load. Boring sig. 01:55, June 20, 2010 (UTC)

Sorry about not getting to your question sooner. Arbok is made of wood, and that fact that he doesn't float was just a (major) blunder of mine that I didn't notice until after it was too late. Although, since Arbok is a special staff, maybe he is made out of "magical" wood, wood that allows him to talk but also makes him sink in water. Since that is...improbable...I don't know what to tell you, Gideon. I guess Arbok is just so awesome that he defies human knowledge of such things. UltimateTORINOR 04:47, June 21, 2010 (UTC)

...well, I should have figured I was forgetting something when I updated my page the other day... Yes, I simply forgot, as I do with a lot of things. Feel free to remind me if something like that happens again. ^^; As for the Legacy fanart, I'd be honored! I'll get right to work on it. However, be warned that my scanner is currently "borked" (for lack of anything better to describe its condition XD) and thus it might take me a while to get the image scanned and uploaded.

New heading
Nice! I love your avatar! Izzy is always awesome. Hey, I need to ask you something. I'm struggling with writing my current chapter of TDtM Dream. This chapter takes place in Russia, and I'm having trouble with ideas. I came up with the challenges and I made up one of those "In Soviet Russia..." jokes, but I can't think of anything else that would be funny other than the "INR" joke, and everyone getting drunk off vodka. Do you have any ideas? IK

I meant "ISR", which stands for "In Soviet Russian". You know a joke that goes like this...

In America, we watch TV. In Soviet Russia, TV watches you!

Anyway, I heard the drinking laws in Canada are different, and in Russia too, so I'm sure they can drink. Oh, and recently I came up with this great idea for a fanfic. I don't know if it's been used before, so be sure to tell me.

After the final two of Total Drama the Musical, everyone is reunited with there families after not seeing them for a year. They can finally go back home and live their normal lives...or will they? Chris announces a brand new season where all the contestants compete for a 10 million dollar prize...with their familes! They compete in family challenges like building a house, rasing a child, and playing family card games! Either that, or a "Family Feud" type show. It's called "Total Drama Families" I'm coming up with personalites for all the character's familes. For example:

Izzy's family would consist of her crazy parents, and brother. Izzy's father is a crazy native Scottish who moved to Canada to start a highly succesful maple syrup company, and possible where Izzy gets her randomness. Izzy's mother is a crazy native Canadian who does is double jointed in every-bone in her body like Izzy, and is possibly where Izzy gets her masochrist tendencies. Izzy's twenty-four year old brother who has a fear of cars despite the fact he builds them.

I've come up with personalites for everyone else too. Some of them will be parodies on sterotypical parents and siblings. Zeke's father is sexist, Cody's mother is Jewish, and is desperate for finding Cody a girl, Eva's father is abusive, Tyler's mother is a Soccer Mom, Noah has eight younger siblings and very religious parents, and Katie's brother and Sadie's sister are in love, just to name a few. If you can think of other good ideas, please tell me! IK

I just wanted to say thank you for helping me with all of those grammatical errors and tips on writting. I was never good with grammer anyway. I am a sourtherner afterall.

Do you remember when I asked you what your favorite cartoons were? I don't think I told you mine. Of course, Total Drama tops them all, but I have many other favorites too. I'm been watching Scooby-Doo and Spongebob longer than I can remember. I still love them, but I think the older episodes are better than the new. I also love Ren and Stimpy. They perfected gross-out humor. Chowder's great, I always loved the that they knew they were cartoons. For example "Look what you've done Chowder! Now the animators have to draw all of this fire!". As for cartoons I've been introduced to recently, I would put Daria and Invader Zim. I always loved sarcastic humor and surreal humor. Maybe that's why I love Izzy and Noah so much. I've watched many of the cartoons you love, and I found them great as well. Still haven't watched Celebrity Deathmath though. Do you have any favorite animated movies? Oh, and just a little random fact: Eeyore from Winne the Pooh, and Optimus Prime from Transformers have the same voice actor! Is that weird or what? Sorry if this is too long... IK

Gideon, I just wanted to tell you (and Total Drama Island, by Gilbert and Sullivan) good luck this month competing in the Featured Story competition!

Indeed, I am a reader of TDI,G&S. I must say, it is quite entertaining and very well written. I apologize for not commenting on the talk page. The main reason I haven't commented is due to a lack of activity, lately. I've been fairly busy the past few weeks, as school is nearing. I do, however, comment on Sprinklemist's stories, because he is a dear friend of mine, and has helped me a great deal since I first joined, so I try to return the favor to him through commenting. Once things quiet down, and I settle back into the scholastic groove, I'll be sure to comment. As for opposing, I have been rethinking my vote, for a little while. I think I'll keep my vote under oppose for this month, but I may switch over to support, next month. TDIwriter 17:26, August 6, 2010 (UTC)

Thank you very much for your advice on the Reflection discussion page! I feel very lightened up about this account deal, but I still have a few questions left:

1. Do I have to get a FanFic account too?

2. How do I make blogs and signatures and links to my stories?

3. Do I have to give out personal info?

4. Do I have to make pictures?

Just answer these questions with the honest truth, and if I'm comfortable with this account deal, I might get one.

The only way I am able to tell who (specifically) reads TDNC is by seeing who supports (or opposes, for that matter) it for Featured Story. Compared to many other stories, the talk page is very small. Despite having one of the smallest talk pages, however, its still in the running (until people notice Violet Hill hasn't actually won yet) for the coveted title. It's possible that people just aren't finishing the massive chapters to even begin to comment on them... UltimateTORINOR And the quest for the Ultimate continues... 16:12, August 9, 2010 (UTC)

To embed a video, you need to have a tab or separate window opened to the video. Then, highlight and copy the URL.

Oh, you're welcome. After reading your side, I thought about it some more, and figured it was a little biased to oppose just because it was a retelling, when it is very creative, and as well subtly humorous and quite entertaining to read. By the way, I did read chapter seventeen, I've been away from the computer for the last week or so for various family related reasons, but I'll be sure to post my comment when I have an good chunk of time.

Yeah, I read a bit of Violin of Despair, and while I can say you did do the bashing in a subtle, "tasteful" manner, that kind of plot is not my cup of tea. TDIG&S however is definitely deserving of some high praise. I do think it was a good idea to nominate both stories though, so you can raise some awareness and hopefully attract new readers in the process.

Actually, I can only say that I've read the Prologue and Chapter One of CVoD. I haven't had much time to do any fanfic reading lately (and I can barely find time to write) because of school.

Yeah, I've read your story Legacy before, it's really good! BTW, I read your user page and saw that you were a member of Mensa. That's awesome! I want to join that group when I'm older. How high of an IQ would I need to get into Mensa (I recently took an IQ test and it said I had 146)?

I actually read the prologue of that and it looks really interesting! And when I said it wasn't "addicting", I didn't mean to insult it.

I'm glad to see that you noticed my vote. I really voted for TDIRM because he was the inspiration for my being an author and the first user to notice me. Anyway, I really like BtG; I'm not really like, a huge fan of Duncney because, and please don't take this the wrong way, I'm just not a Courtney fan like others are; plus, you re right, it does deserve a chance at FS. So anyway, it's good to know we have another thing in common.

PS, even though you told me before, I'm glad that I flattered you by saying that Legacy is one of my favorites.

Thanks for that, Gideon. Although I don't often think about dating (too busy to even contemplate it...and not interested much), thanks.

Hey, I just caught the message you left on my talk page and thanks so much for the comment on my Courtney story (I'd type out the title but really the title itself was a joke on its own just to see how many characters it limited me to). I'm always so shocked when I get positive feedback on that one shot in particular mostly because I hadn't really put any real thought or effort into it. I'm glad the narration sounded like Courtney though. I really tried on that aspect.

* gasp* Creative consultant! That definately makes me feel amazingly special (as if you guys didn't already realize I am a bit "special"... XD). I suppose mid-thirties Christin would be somewhat of a combination of her TWE and Bachelorette appearances- having overcome her shyness a bit, but remaining somewhat soft-spoken, generally being a friendly person and being a somewhat independant woman, having the ability to take care of herself. I would expect that Christin wouldn't have all that much experience with appearing on television, so she'd probably be a little jittery and unsure of how to handle herself in front of the cameras, but do a generally decent job (with lapses, of course). At thirty she'd probably be a little more vocal when something bothers her, as well, and more or less act like a friendlier, less-experienced version of Chris. I give you full support in adding your own little additions and twists as well, as I have confidence you'll represent her fabulously. :D -- Sunshineandravioli- Legendary  Pixie!

Just a Small Note
I'm glad you liked the revisions; I guess if someone puts out rules about collaboration stories, I'll have to ask you about 'em if you know 'em.

Anyway, I was actually expecting people to laugh at Gwen's real name being Crystal and that's suppose to be my name. Well, I like Gwen okay so I just chose my name 'cause I could picture a gothic's name being Crystal, but somehow when I sometimes let tragic or embarrassing things happening to her is kind of my own character-bashing in a way that's kind 'cause I like her, but still bashing her.

PS, another name inspiration is from Alejandro, a song by Lady GaGa (She's my least favorite artist, but I like her songs sometimes.) and with the Don't call my name, don't call my name, Roberto lyric, I thought while revising, Well, I can't use Roberto 'cause that sounds like Alejandro, so I'll just go with Robert.

PPS, the only reason I screwed up on the first time I wrote CH. 27 was because I thought that we could write the characters in OOC form. I didn't the comment personally, but I just misread it. <font color="Pink>CrystalNeonSummerSnow <font color="Pink> <font color="Fluorescent beige">Oh, why did we build Gwen's face?!

Hey, Gideon! What did you think of the new chapter of Psychos and Liars? IK

I'm glad you liked it! Here's a little fun fact: Do you remember the part where Izzy's talking about her brother? At one point, she mentions everytime her family goes on trips, her gets scared. So, her mom sings to him, puts her hand over his mouth, and hold his nose closed until he passed out? That came from one of jokes of Izzy's own voice actress, Katie Crown. Clever, huh? I doubt other people got the reference though. Unless, your so obsessed with Izzy, that you obsess over her voice actress too. IK

Response to FU Post
Hello to you, Gideoncrawle. (For future purposes, you can call me "BB". Better nickname.) Yes, I believe I've seen your username and your work here and there, but we haven't really introduced ourselves to each other. I guess we could call this the introduction as you know I'm BB and I know you're Gideon. As for the FU votes... first of all, if I need to, I can remove my oppose votes. I use the term "lazy" only because... I feel that some of the challenges, plots, and elimination ceremonies could have been... you know... better and/or more dramatic (especially if "dramatic" was the term they were shooting for when getting reviews from other people). I can't really list every single detail that you may want with this, but... that's kinda what I thought with a lot of the chapters of many of the FFs that I've skimmed through and my oppose vote on the Owner's FU nomination shows that. Again, if I have made an error or if you feel my opinions aren't legitimate, I can remove it. Your choice to an extent, I suppose.  ~   Bbhinton15      talks,   <span class="buttonlink" title="Edits & Contributions"> edits,     &   counts!   03:23, September 29, 2010 (UTC)

Wow, I have to admitt, it's very flattering that you pay that much attention to me.

Anyway, sorry about the archive thing; I didn't know about that. Also, I'm also flattered that you like Auroral Nights so much. I describe that sometimes it's my favorite story I've written because it could probably be a preview of my writting skills advancing in the future.

And about NKL, I guess I do have a tendency to be ultraviolet with the writting sometimes; I just wanted to try and sound a little more mature for a 13 year-old girl. Still, the reason I haven't de-purplized it (yet) is because I could keep that as a reminder to try not to purple prose so much, but I kept the link off so that the only eyes familiar to the story would be you and me. Still, thank you for the comment about it possibly being a Featured Story if I de-purplize it. I'll think about it now, but right now, I'm more focused on Auroral Nights than any of my other stories. I was also thinking of nominating Auroral Nights for Featured Story in two months or more once I recive reception when it's done. <font color="Black">He ate my heart, he a-a-ate my heart. <font color="Black"> <font color="Red">All the single ladies!

About the sideburns, I was really digging them. XD I like sideburns. I used to have mutton chops, but not no more. I also have a concealed mole, so I understand, mine at the back of my head. When a friend of mine battling cancer tried to recruit me to shave my head, I explained my fear/mole. Selfish, a little, but he lived a bit away from me so people would not get the connection.

Sorry about my former latest message. I can get a little randomly shary for no reason. But anyway, I meant to tell you that I was reading a manga where there was an old looking Japanese man, I'd say he looked to be 80. And they had a flashback of him at 14 years old. Later they revealed that the flashback was of forty years prior, so he was only in his mid fifties. That reminded me of what you said earlier.

Hi there, Gid. I was reading over Gigi's latest blogpost, and saw your lament on having no fanfart for you stories. This gave me an idea, which is pretty obvious.

That's actually a really good idea! (And wonderfully coincidential, as I was reading Legacy again just yesterday while working on the fanart, and recalled your mention of an abandoned sixth chapter.) I'd love to do that! The Legacy fanart has just entered the coloring stages, which will probably take a few weeks or so (as I have many other commitments, and I'm coloring the picture using Photoshop, which I have rather few opportunities to use).

I understand. Favortism is a pet-peve of mine, and sometimes, favortism is a bias of the decision. Although, it could, as you say, just be unfortunate timing. I'm honored to be one of the three to be invited for Ult's post-Halloween Special, but I fear that it may be of biased reasons, due to my previous lament/complaint on Fanny's story.

On another note, I have recently begun (re)writing stories such as Death and Roses, The Last One, and my newest story, Figment, to make up for the prolonged hiatus of TDL. I just want to keep you informed on that subject matter. I haven't been on Wikia much due to, well, having a busy life outside of Wikia.

That is remarkably amusing. XD I didn't even realize "Sunshine" qualified as a last name until now. -- Sunshineandravioli- Legendary  Pixie!   RAVIOLI EVERYWHERE!  20:58, November 18, 2010 (UTC)

So, Sunshine's made a Legacy fan art for you? Can I see it sometime? Plus, I'm not an impatient girl, and yeah, I've seen her work, so it will totally be worth the wait. Have a happy Thanksgiving; you and your wife. He ate my heart, he a-a-ate my heart. All the single ladies! (All the single ladies!) You make me feel like I&#39;m livin&#39; a teenage dream! *Crystal continues mindlessly playing music and dances randomly in her room* 17:52, November 24, 2010 (UTC)

The week between Christmas and New Years sounds like a perfect time to release the joint blog posts, and in all honesty, it will probably take me until then. Not only is the picture relatively complex for one of my pieces (not only featuring Heather and Duncan, but an extensive background- which you yourself mentioned I tend to avoid- and a bit of foreground as well), but I have several other commitments to work on both through the wiki and in "real life" (whatever that might be) whilst I finish the Legacy artwork. Late December sounds like more than a reasonable date to aim for. :) On the topic of Sunshine/Ravioli and LTDI, they are both yours to use, as I have confidence you'll portray them well. I eagerly await the fanservice scene (the concept of a Sunshine-Duncan-Ravioli threesome was very nearly enough to send me falling from my chair in intense laughter, though your assumption about my Duncan-greediness is entirely correct; I even tend to get a bit defensive when someone wanders a bit too close to my beloved Duncan poster), and I find the concept of Sunshine as Izzy's imaginary friend both humerous and fitting, especially considering the two redheads' past clashes (as you might have read on our favorite pixie's character page). On that note, as I considered this concept, I found it a funny (if unlikely to happen) idea that, at the end of a Sunshine-centric story, it were to be revealed that she, her homeland, her family, and all around her were but a figment of Izzy's twisted imagination. As stated, I'll probably never end up using this, but the humor exists nonetheless. -- Sunshineandravioli- Legendary  Pixie!   RAVIOLI EVERYWHERE!  01:14, November 25, 2010 (UTC)
