Talk:Return to Total Drama Action

Yayz! Hopefully this'll be way better than TDA. Promise not to ruin any characters like TDA did? XD -- D J   Spen  star!  02:07, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

I dislike the use of the word 'rape', as it is entirely inappropriate. But yes, I will try not to change anybody for the worse. --TDIwriter 02:09, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

I just say "TDA them". It has a more polite ring to it. XD Anyway, I really look forward to this story. Sprinklemist Send me a message.Or not... 02:12, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

Yes, I'll try not to 'TDA' anybody. As soon as TAU gives me his choice, I can post the rest of the cast! Yayz! --TDIwriter 02:13, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

It's Emmy's term, I'm just using it. -- D J   Spen  star!  02:16, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

Well, I'm extremely uncomfortable with people using the term 'rape' lightly. It's not something to use in this sense. I'm not trying to be a jerk, but could you please try to refrain from using it, Spenstar? --TDIwriter 02:18, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

Fine. I'll use "ruin" instead. -- D J   Spen  star!  02:20, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

Thank you. --TDIwriter 02:21, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

You're welcome. -- D J   Spen  star!  02:22, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

I remember when you told me about this and showed me the cast. I know a lot of the cast. I can't wait to see a particular one. --Goldenshane 02:52, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

I did change the cast, slightly. It may change again, slightly, depending on who TAU picks to return --TDIwriter 02:52, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

Can I say the one I hope is in? --Goldenshane 02:54, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

Sure. --TDIwriter 02:59, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

I hope Gerald returns and Zuma, if possible. You told me that Gerald's returning but I'm not getting my hopes up to much. --Goldenshane 03:00, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

Gerald? I wasn't expecting anyone to say they hope he comes back, lol. --TDIwriter 03:02, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

He's so funny! I want to read more of his lines. --Goldenshane 03:03, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

Lol. Thanks. He's actually my favorite character to write for. That's a tad ironic, isn't it?--TDIwriter 03:04, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

Cast looks good. Yay for Reese coming back! And Jessica of course. I think you made really good choices for who not to include. Though Steven and Nicole are fun. Sprinklemist Send me a message.Or not... 03:28, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! Zuma and Gerald are in! YAY! --Goldenshane 03:29, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

I'm going to miss Yancy....maybe I'll throw in an Aftermath or two, from time to time. --TDIwriter 03:33, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

Fortunately there are other Yancy's in the world. Sprinklemist Send me a message.Or not... 03:34, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

Yes, there are. Other, T-Vestless Yancys. Then again, he does have a soul patch....and free pre-story advertising. --TDIwriter 03:36, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

WOOT! Go do that shameless advertising! XD --Goldenshane 03:36, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

Who knows what's under that sweater? *wink* ... *suddenly realizes how creepy that sounds* Sprinklemist Send me a message.Or not... 03:50, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

O.O -- D J   Spen  star!  03:51, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

0_o. Sprinklemist, since we're friends....I'm going to pretend you said something less weird, lol. --TDIwriter 03:53, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

0_o. *hides behind a tree due to the weirdness* --Goldenshane 03:54, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

Sprink, that was wrong in so many ways. -- D J   Spen  star!  03:57, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

It was not at all coolio, Sprink. --Goldenshane 03:58, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

You guys are weirding me out with your being weirded out. XD Um... I was talking about a T-vest people! Though... That's even weirder. Sprinklemist Send me a message.Or not... 04:02, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

So.........how 'bout that weather? --TDIwriter 04:03, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

<_< I feel intensely like Audrey right now. Weather... Cold. Sprinklemist Send me a message.Or not... 04:05, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

Wowzers, that sucks. XD Let's change the subject. Sprink, how many characters will be in your third season? -- D J   Spen  star!  04:08, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

Twenty or twenty-two. But if we change the subject, let's change it to Return to Total Drama Action. Sprinklemist Send me a message.Or not... 04:13, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

K, just wanted to know. Gerald for victory! -- D J   Spen  star!  04:15, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

Ummm...if by Gerald you mean Tristan or Parker, then I agree.- The Anonymous User 04:17, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

Any predictions, yet? --TDIwriter 04:19, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

LOL, by Gerald I mean Gerald. But Tristan and Parker are cool too.

I predict that Gerald will win. -- D J   Spen  star!  04:20, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

I'm not sure who I think will win. I can see Tristan or Reese being eliminated first. Reese for his threathood and Tristan for making people mad last time. Sprinklemist Send me a message.Or not... 04:26, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

Is threathood even a word? -- D J   Spen  star!  04:29, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

Interesting. The teams will be male vs female, pre-merge. Anyone have any team name suggestions? --TDIwriter 04:29, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

For the females, I suggest the Femme Fatales. For the males... IDK. -- D J   Spen  star!  04:31, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

Team IDK? (Lol, jk) --TDIwriter 04:32, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

Let's see....maybe the Masculine Marauders and the Femme Fatales?- The Anonymous User 04:32, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

I like that one. -- D J   Spen  star!  04:37, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

I think I'll go with Femme Fatales and Team Awesome. --TDIwriter 04:39, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

Biased much? LOL -- D J   Spen  star!  04:40, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

It was our team name in gym class, for volleyball. --TDIwriter 04:42, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

Team Awesome.....I liked the Masculine Marauders, but it's your story, who am I to complain...- The Anonymous User 04:43, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

Well...after I wanted to find some names that would sound like that characters picked them themselves, since I was going to have Chris allow them to name their own teams. Double F's worked for the girls, but I felt asculine Marauders wasn't something the guys would pick. No offense to your suggestion. --TDIwriter 04:46, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

Whenever my sister and a certain group of her female friends need a team name, they go by "Team Beautiful". XD Sprinklemist Send me a message.Or not... 04:50, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

I bet if Steven were in the game, then he would pick Marauders, and wouldn't Parker object to Team Awesome?...that sounds like something he would do. Whatever, I'm getting too hung up on this, so I'll probably stop now.- The Anonymous User 04:51, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

Lol. We had the weirdest name in football...The Hot Monkeys. We won the championship, so my team got certificates with 'The Hot Monkeys: Football Champions' on them. --TDIwriter 04:52, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

Steven probably would. Parker...I'm not sure if Parker cares enough to object. --TDIwriter 04:53, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

How about *puts hands in the shape of a picture frame* "Boy Power". Sprinklemist Send me a message.Or not... 04:55, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

Or not, lol. Hmm...maybe I could find a half-way point? Like, Team Masculine, or the Awesome Marauders?--TDIwriter 04:58, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

Or "Awesome Masculinity", or "Manly Men", or "The Mighty Mighty Testosterones"... You can ignore me, now. Sprinklemist Send me a message.Or not... 05:02, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

Final Three Guessing Contest
You may make a guess for the final three, here. For now, there is no prize. If I think of one later, I'll let you guys know.

Um...I'm going out on a limb here, but...Gerald, Jessica, and...Parker. IDK. She's a rebel,  She's a saint,  She's the salt of the earth, and she's dangerous!  17:46, January 16, 2010 (UTC)

I'll do one later. Way to early to make a good guess. Goldenshane 17:49, January 16, 2010 (UTC)

Well, you know, if you're wrong, you can always change it, lol. Then again, no one said you had to do it now, anyway. I just put this up so I didn't forget to do it later. TDIwriter 17:52, January 16, 2010 (UTC)

Gerald, Francine, Wendy. Just a pretty random guess at this point. Sprinklemist Send me a message.Or not... 18:39, January 16, 2010 (UTC)

Guys, like I said....I just put this up so I wouldn't forget, lol. You don't have to do it now :p. TDIwriter 18:41, January 16, 2010 (UTC)

I know. I wanted to do it for fun and to see bad a guess it was later. Sprinklemist Send me a message.Or not... 18:54, January 16, 2010 (UTC)

I said it was too early. NOW IS THE TIME! WOOT! Francine, Jessica, and Gerald. What? I'm calling my favorites. Goldenshane 19:03, January 16, 2010 (UTC)

Gerald and Jessica seem to be pretty popular guess, at this point. I wonder why that is...TDIwriter 19:46, January 16, 2010 (UTC)

Don't forget about Francine. Goldenshane 20:41, January 16, 2010 (UTC)

Chapter Talks
Great first chapter! I do have a question though: Why did Zuma get eliminated? It seems random.

- The Anonymous User 00:32, January 23, 2010 (UTC)

I didn't really have a storyline for Zuma, anymore. I'll explain why it was her in the next chapter. TDIwriter 00:42, January 23, 2010 (UTC)

Great first chapter. ZUMA NO! Goldenshane 00:44, January 23, 2010 (UTC)

Sorry, Shane :( TDIwriter 00:46, January 23, 2010 (UTC)

That was quite the surprise. I thought Quinn was gone for sure. Really good job. From what I can tell, I really like what you're doing with this story. I can't wait for more... Well... That's an expression, but I look forward to the next one. Sprinklemist Send me a message.Or not... 02:21, January 23, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks, everyone. I wasn't too sure about this first chapter. :) TDIwriter 04:16, January 23, 2010 (UTC)

Hey why did Gerald cry? you messed up a few characters!

That'll be revealed as the story goes on, don't worry. TDIwriter 04:30, January 23, 2010 (UTC)

Are you going to make David and Gerald go out early? I feel bad for Gerald

Well, wait and see, lol. TDIwriter 04:35, January 23, 2010 (UTC)

Why is David all awake now? DUN DUN DUN DUN DA DA DA DUN DA DUUUUUUUUUUUUN!

So he can actually compete? TDIwriter 04:48, January 23, 2010 (UTC)

XD, lets give David some coffe! MEGAMAN!

Great chapter. I can already tell you're not ruining the characters. Yay! BocaJ's the name, Comedy's my game.Go ahead and chat with me. 04:58, January 23, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks, BocaJ. I'll try not to ruin anybody, in future chapters, lol. TDIwriter 05:04, January 23, 2010 (UTC)

* bangs head against desk* That was my favorite chapter of yours ever. I loved the development/hints at development, the challenge was epic, and you kept the funny parts funny. I loved Andrew, and Chef melting from the shadows menacingly with a spoon. XD Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 02:37, February 11, 2010 (UTC)

This was awesome! Quinn's kinda stupid at times. Goldenshane 02:40, February 11, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks, guys :). Andrew is quickly becoming one of my favorite characters to write for this season. Quinn is kinda stupid, isn't she? Or maybe, just, super full of herself. TDIwriter 02:48, February 11, 2010 (UTC)

Awesome chapter! It was so good that I jumped out of my window and ran through my street screaming, "RETURN TO TOTAL DRAMA ACTION IS SWEETNESS!" XD BocaJ's the name, Comedy's my game.Go ahead and chat with me. 03:19, February 11, 2010 (UTC)

Oh, yeah. I also liked Kevin's motivational speech calling David kind of really ugly. XD Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 03:34, February 11, 2010 (UTC)

There's something fishy about Jessica and Tristan. I can't wait for more!- The Anonymous User 03:58, February 11, 2010 (UTC)

Great chapter! Too bad about Quinn, though... -- D J   Spen  star!  13:32, February 11, 2010 (UTC)

Nice chapter, TDIWriter....... Quinn deserved it...... GM likes Cyan! Maroon is the new Green! CrimsonMagic0113:35, February 11, 2010 (UTC)

Sorry, guys. Chapter Three has been delayed longer than Jurassic Park 4. Anyway, I'll try to get it up as soon as I can. I'll just go ahead and leave the title: "You, Ruined" TDIwriter 23:02, March 20, 2010 (UTC)

Well, I look forward to it, whenever it is. Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 00:22, March 21, 2010 (UTC)

Great job on this chapter. The challenge was extra funny. XD I'll miss Reese, obviously, but I felt he wouldn't make it too far as he made it to the finals in the first season. He had penty of story time, then, so I'm fine with it. I can't wait to see what you have planned for the others. Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 23:30, March 28, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, I tried to see if I could make him go farther, but he just didn't fit anywhere. I think the fartherest I could get him to go was 9th, but he would have done very little. Also, thank you :) TDIwriter 23:36, March 28, 2010 (UTC)

One more thing that I should say... Edward's sleepwear was heavily disturbing. XD Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 23:54, March 28, 2010 (UTC)

Lol, sorry. I guess it's a good thing my story isn't animated, then. TDIwriter 23:56, March 28, 2010 (UTC)

If I do a chapter image for this story, I can tell you what it won't be of. XD It's okay. It honestly gave me no mental imagery. Parker was cool in this chapter, and the anti-Quinn scene was pretty funny. Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 00:01, March 29, 2010 (UTC) Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 00:01, March 29, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks. What was so cool about Parker this time? TDIwriter 00:02, March 29, 2010 (UTC)

I guess his relationship with Reese, like when he turned the light on for him, and he saw him off. I like that he tries to act all nonchalant/unattached with Reese, but it's obvious to the reader that he really cares for him like a brother (or a puppy?).

I guess deep down, Parker really does consider Reese his very best friend, like Gerald said. That's another reason I eliminated Reese early. Last season he outlasted Parker, and his reaction to being alone was shown, so I decided to show the flip side to that. Also, I couldn't let you do any chapter images, for the story :P TDIwriter 00:09, March 29, 2010 (UTC)

Hmmm... *wonders if there's some reason* Oh, you mean that I'm not doing pictures for people at this time? I could do some if I do a fanart streak like I did for the first wiki anniversary. Anyway, yeah. I'm glad to see characters outlast their "buddy" in a future season, as you can see the way they'd be/were when they lost their related person. I wish TDA did more/any of that. Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 00:33, March 29, 2010 (UTC)

It's mostly because you aren't doing pictures. Yeah, I agree with you on TDA. Hopefully World Tour will handle that, to at least some extent. Though, it'll probably be about forming new friendships, since a chunk of the cast is the minor characters from the first two seasons, and then the two new guys. TDIwriter 00:36, March 29, 2010 (UTC)

And partly because you don't want me to... T_T/JK Yeah, I hope they address that/figured it out. Tyler without Lindsay would be interesting. But yeah, I noticed that the guys for TDWT were mnor in season one, while the girls were the ones who made it furthest. That was interesting... Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 00:41, March 29, 2010 (UTC)

I was really hoping for Eva in WT. I think her singing would be hilarious. Heck, I just want Tyler to get some focus, with or without Lindsay. OH, and I do want you to, but I don't think it would be fair for me to get a chapter image if you aren't doing pictures for people. TDIwriter 00:45, March 29, 2010 (UTC)

Oh, yeah. Eva singing would be awesome. XD The non-drawing for people is just temporary so I can get back on track with stuff for my own stories. I could still do edits of preexisting characters if you ever want me to, since that's a tad different. Don't be afraid to ask. Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 00:54, March 29, 2010 (UTC)

Good chapter! That was odd of Victoria to snap at Wendy and then sassily snap, lol. Didn't know she had it in her. Seems like everyone who did well last season is going down quickly. That's cool, it balances it out so a character who received loads of attention one season doesn't hog the camera the second season. cough Duncan cough. -Lalainee 21:48, March 30, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks! And yeah, the first three out this season where all in the final four last season...though, I didn't want to do that at first, as it seemed too obvious, at least to me. Then I figured, oh well. Not everyone's place this season is dependant on how they placed previously, though. TDIwriter 21:54, March 30, 2010 (UTC)

I really liked this chapter, very much. Sad to see Reese go home, but, he did already have a lot of development. Also, you're developing everyone very well. Happy April! Come talk with me and I'll give your town rain.Cya (N) 17:42, April 2, 2010 (UTC)

Thank you, very much, Bocaj :) TDIwriter 17:47, April 2, 2010 (UTC)

Nice chapter. I liked the challenge. I thought Wendy, the determined heroine, would survive against all odds (like almost every other horror movie). I'm glad you had Andrew address that as it made me doubt that she would win it, if it was bluntly stated that she would most likly win. Good job on doing that. Gerald was cool, and that's something nice that he did for his friend, that shows that it's just not something that has to take place with couples in these stories. I'm slightly scared for Kevin, though, mostly as to how his luck has changed... Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 02:06, April 8, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks, Sprinklemist. I wanted Gerald to go farther, but I really liked this idea. And, at least Kevin isn't being crushed by giant numbers, anymore. It's always bothered me that guys seem to only serve as cannon fodder in horror movies, but I guess females are better at driving the needed emotion, (though, Wendy pretty much flipped Andrew and Edward off by leaving them, I think.) TDIwriter 02:11, April 8, 2010 (UTC)

I agree. I think the lovable female lead is easier to root for than a male character, but it's been done to death (no pun intended). Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 02:16, April 8, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, I suppose. By the way, you're out of the final three contest :P TDIwriter 02:22, April 8, 2010 (UTC)

Oh, so I am. T_T I can guess again, right? I wasn't insulting your choice of having Wendy win, at all. More the horror movie genre (and not your accurate parody), in general. Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 03:05, April 8, 2010 (UTC)

Yes, you can guess again, (until the final five). Oh, lol. I thought you were insulting my choice. I didn't really take offense, though. TDIwriter 03:11, April 8, 2010 (UTC)

We both know what that means. I need to use more smilies. XD Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 03:13, April 8, 2010 (UTC)

Oh, dear, more smiles. Hmm, I have a question. DO you think I wasted Gerald's character by eliminating him early, again? TDIwriter 03:16, April 8, 2010 (UTC)

I personally don't. I think his story was pretty much over, and probably would have been stretched out. If you brought him further in it would feel very expected. Getting rid of him early was a surprise for me, and I enjoy a surprise on occasion (though my stories seem to provide them more than occasionally), especially since the first three eliminated made it a lot farther in season one. Gerald obviously felt that he wanted to stay longer than his first time, but learned to put someone else ahead of himself. I like his story this time (and last time, too), and think you did an excellent job with it. On a different note, I very heavily relate to Hannah's confessional. I feel that way a lot of the time, but it's something that others don't understand. Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 03:25, April 8, 2010 (UTC)

Thank you. Oh, and I didn't know you would relate so closely with Hannah's confessional. I guess i'll try not to talk to you, so often, so I don't drive you up a wall, lol. TDIwriter 03:39, April 8, 2010 (UTC)

It has nothing to do with reading text, but with the sound of voices. So you can still talk to me, just don't speak. XD Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 03:46, April 8, 2010 (UTC)

Oh, gee, I think that might be a tad hard to control, lol. I get what you mean. TDIwriter 03:49, April 8, 2010 (UTC)

Good. I don't like saying that kind of thing to people, though, as when I do, it comes off sort of... incredibly rude. XD But, yeah. I'm liking Hannah better. I'm not sure if you intended for her to be off-putting to the reader or not, but I do appreciate being able to relate to someone that I identify with on a fairly different level than most characters I've seen. It's not like I don't like people, but I really like to be around people without having to talk, sometimes. I don't feel awkward with long periods of silence, like others do. Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 04:18, April 8, 2010 (UTC)

Well, I don't really try to make any of my characters off-putting. I feel that way too, sometimes, about long silences. TDIwriter 04:23, April 8, 2010 (UTC)

I've decided to try something, opinions please.
I've recently written and posted the aftermath chapter. If the reaction is positive, I'll write an aftermath chapter after every four eliminations. If the reactions isn't so positive, I'll take the chapter down. TDIwriter 18:22, April 11, 2010 (UTC)

I loved the latest chapters, a lot. Both were epic, and the aftermath was hilarious. In my opinion, I say you continue the aftermaths. Happy April! Come talk with me and I'll give your town rain.Cya (N) 19:17, April 11, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks, so much, Bocaj. :) TDIwriter 19:28, April 11, 2010 (UTC)

I loved the aftermath chappy! It was epic! I loved the "tofu in a can" part. xD! -- D J   Spen  star!  20:19, April 11, 2010 (UTC)

Same here. I loved this chapter. Goldenshane 20:26, April 11, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks very much, y'all. Looks like I'll be keeping the aftermath segment. TDIwriter 20:36, April 11, 2010 (UTC)

It was far better than the actual series' aftermath episodes, in my opinion. Everyone was funny (including Laura and Zuma gasp). The tofu in a can (which I would so get), and Steven's numbness, T-Vest, enterprise and time traveling was quite funny. Nicole and Morgan were also pretty funy at points. Keep doin' 'em! P.S. You accidentally spelled "Zuma" as "Zuam" at one point. Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 03:15, April 12, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks, Sprinklemist. I wasn't sure people would like the Aftermath episode. I wrote it in a bit of a hurry, as I had nothing planned at all. Most of the jokes and gags were spur of the moment kind of things. (Partially Hydrogenated Space Caterpillar was a combination of things I could see from wher I was sitting). TDIwriter 19:21, April 12, 2010 (UTC)
