Welcome
Hi, welcome to Total Drama Island Fanfiction wikia! Thanks for your edit to the Total Drama School (Toadgamer80) page.

Please leave a message on my talk page if I can help with anything! -- Kenzen11 (Talk) 16:20, September 19, 2010

Hi, Toad, "Old Man of the Wiki" here. Thanks for your support of TDI-G&amp;S on the Featured Story ballot. "Amazing" is probably the one word I hear more than any other.

A note on the Featured Quote voting: I can certainly understand why you think featured quotes should be funny, but the rules don't make that a requirement (i.e. the rules state that "It's not funny" isn't a valid reason for Opposing). The admins are content to feature quotes that are serious or even dark. If you think the Legacy quote is TOO dark, that's a perfectly good reason to Oppose, but you should probably have left your comment at that. It bears mention, though, that some of the wiki's best-loved stories are pretty dark. Legacy, Life After Lies, Violet Hill and Total Drama Infinity have all won Featured Story votes, but three of these kill off a canon character--indeed, two are mainly about the death of said character--and the fourth has multiple torture scenes.

Lest there be any confusion, please understand that your opposition to the Legacy quote does NOT offend me in any way. I nominated it mainly in an attempt to stimulate voting, because none of the other nominees had any votes at all, either for or against. In any case, the admins don't actually count Oppose votes, even as a tiebreaker, because they don't want to encourage "strategic" voting. The Oppose option is only there at all so people who don't want to Support a nominee can give feedback, and maybe blow off a little steam in the process. (Nominees that are seen as truly unworthy sometimes draw flocks of Oppose votes.)

In any case, it's nice to see that you're starting to come out of your shell. Posting your own stories is all very well, but people will be more inclined to read those stories if they know you, so getting your name out there will help drive traffic to your stories. Voting in the Feature elections is a good way to do this. Joining in blog discussions is another. Leaving constructive comments on the discussion pages of stories you've read is a surefire way to become popular.

You can also introduce yourself to people on their User talk pages, as I have done with you (although most people won't be as long-winded as I) and converse with them. A word to the wise, though: when you introduce yourself to someone, don't just ask them to read your stories, because that type of advertising is against wiki rules. Enforcement seems to be on a complaint basis, so you're not likely to get in trouble for bringing a story to the attention of someone you know well.

Acceptable methods of advertising a story include linking to it from your User page (which I see you have done), making a blog post about it (which I see you have also done), nominating a passage from it for Featured Quote, nominating a character from it for Featured Character (if it's a competition story and you have a character that fits the theme of the month), and nominating the story itself for Featured Story (even if it has no real chance of winning).

You can also call attention to your stories by running for Featured User, although that's probably a litte premature in your case. A socially active user generally needs 500 edits or so to be taken seriously as a Featured User candidate, although there is no rule against even a raw newbie running.

One more thing: if you wish to respond to a message that someone leaves on your User talk page (as opposed to a story's talk page) you should respond on his or her talk page, not on your own. Responses that you post on your own page are likely to go unseen, because most users don't routinely monitor other people's talk pages. (They can if they want, but most choose not to.)

All right, thanks for the notice. Yeah, I'm not going to run for Featured User for a while, but I might consider having one of my characters running for Featured Character... that is, after my story gets more popular. Call me Toad or Toady just not Toadgamer80! 20:28, November 30, 2010 (UTC)

Actually, nominating a character on the Featured Character ballot might help your story get popular by drawing attention to it. Even if it doesn't get any votes, the name will be out there. The only restriction is that, in most months, nominated characters have to fit a certain theme (antagonists, flirts, etc.) And remember, reply to talk page posts on the poster's talk page, not on your own, because most people won't be monitoring your talk page.

I apologize for not properly welcoming you to the site. Thanks for being so supportive of my stories. :) Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 17:48, December 11, 2010 (UTC)

Sure. That's fine by me. Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 15:38, December 12, 2010 (UTC)

Wow, thanks :) My first comment! It means a lot. --Pinball1106 cannot think of anything interesting right now... 16:29, December 16, 2010 (UTC)

I've converted... half of one to novel form, but... For me, a novel is a novel. So the first 8 pages of my first chapter is... 24 pages in novel form (and novel form doesn't skip all of those lines). I don't think people would be interested in reading all of that, lol. --Pinball1106 cannot think of anything interesting right now... 03:20, December 23, 2010 (UTC)

Toad, I love Total Drama School! I wanted Gary to win, but I am now rooting for Carson. I am glad there is a second season!Alejandrofan3000 15:28, December 26, 2010 (UTC)

I like them both, because they are a lot like me in real life! I remember back in 2001? when I heard "It's over 9000!" on the real show. It will always be funny!Alejandrofan3000 15:40, December 26, 2010 (UTC)

Julia and Nic. Violent girls are funny, and I like people who cannot antagonize!(Justin) I love Sharissa's return! Jst like her rolemodel/cousin Izzy!Alejandrofan3000 15:50, December 26, 2010 (UTC)

I love how Izzy returns a lot! In my first fanfic, one of my characters is going to return 3 times in the same season! Ever time he returns, everyone looks at Chris and says"Really!? Again?!" It will be so funny!Alejandrofan3000 15:57, December 26, 2010 (UTC)

I love this wiki already! On the camps wiki, I have 2,530 edits in the last month! I edit fast! Plus, I add to my characters's profiles after every chapter, even to their backstories. I already have a sequel planned.Alejandrofan3000 16:11, December 26, 2010 (UTC)

I took your advice and nominated a quote I really enjoyed writing!Alejandrofan3000 16:32, December 26, 2010 (UTC)

Read it. Have a feeling Amanda is next.Alejandrofan3000 16:35, December 26, 2010 (UTC)

If you have the time, read the quote I nominated. It is funny because it happened in real life!Alejandrofan3000 16:39, December 26, 2010 (UTC)

Hey, thanks a lot for the compliment. I appreciate it so much! I put that specifically for Gary, since I know you have looked at my story :). I actually didn't realize the story was so long until I was reading something on Gideoncrawle's TDI's talk page that said that a chapter could be really one of the longest ever and could easily cross 7,000 words. I always thought stories like Sprink's had been longer than mine, but I guess not, lol. Again, thanks so much for the support, and I just hope you or someone has the patience to read through all of it (If you include the character pages and the team category pages and everything it's already taken SO much work, but I enjoy it). --Pinball1106 cannot think of anything interesting right now... 01:27, December 30, 2010 (UTC)

I made a second stoey, no correlation to the first.If you read it, I hope you comment!

Hey Toad, the newest chapter of Total Drama China is up. hope you enjoy it.Please comment about the chapter after reading. Thanks.-user: Lindsaysbiggestfan

Yeah, you can draw some Alpha and Omega characters! You can message me on the ones you wanted to draw. As for the elimination table, I was wondering about if maybe styling the table like this: http://tdicamps.wikia.com/wiki/Total_Drama_High_School_II#Voting_History. 18:31, January 17, 2011 (UTC)

kk, Would you like some tiny descriptions of them, they way I had them in mind? 20:20, January 17, 2011 (UTC)

---

Dr. Pepper


 * Hair: Black and wears a maroon gansta hat


 * Skin: Darker than Alejandro but lighter than Chef


 * Clothes: Mahogany baggy pants, Maroon jacket with white shirt underneath displaying a Coke bottle as a joke, gold chain with a watch around his neck. Black heelys, if possible or just black shoes

Gunther


 * Nothing in particular, but I'd like it to be something like Gunther from Shake It Up would wear and preferably a lime green

Silena


 * Diamond.png'd imagined her like that, with a long white jacket with black skinny jeans and white Blaineley type shoes

Leela


 * Surprise me (:D) but make it Twilight (the book) related, like maybe an apple on her shirt or something and then maybe her obsessing over one of the books.

I hope those aren't too hard - I have like really complicted ideas - but I hope you can do them! 21:13, January 17, 2011 (UTC)

Yeah! That's perfect! :D 21:25, January 17, 2011 (UTC)

Sure! XD 23:05, January 17, 2011 (UTC)

WOW! THAT LOOKS REALLY GOOD! I like it a lot, and XD at Devin's underwear! Thanks, dude! Credit goes to you! 23:23, January 17, 2011 (UTC)

Thanks! I like Leela! Is it okay if I make a small adjustment by changing her hair color to black? I forgot to mention that earlier. Btw, she reminds of Elena. And yeah, if you're drawing these four you might as well draw them all! :) 23:44, January 17, 2011 (UTC)

Okay, Carter I planned with just a blue tee and some dark jeans with duckie floaties on her arms, swim goggles around her neck, and dark brown hair. With Rosalina, I pictured just like she does in Mario but with not a huge dress and no wand. Keep the crown though. :D And Elnora to look like Tae but with dyed gray hair and not so big of a smile, and maybe like a spatula in her hand. 23:18, January 18, 2011 (UTC)

Two things:Two of my stories are taking a backseat and will not be edited as much as my main one. Two:It looks like we are opponents in Write-off 2011. We must do our best, agreed? I cannot wait till it starts. Got it memorized? Got what memorized?  I have no idea.  06:53, January 19, 2011 (UTC)

Thanks, I love Rosalina! With Carter, that's not what I first thought of, but she looks better the way you drew her! Thanks again! 21:39, January 19, 2011 (UTC)

No, I like it better this way because I've planned some funny lines for him now. XD I'm laughing in my chair right now. I also created him a new plotline because now he's not going to be...weird-er. XD 22:13, January 19, 2011 (UTC)

Thanks on Elnora! With Theodore, he was a big softie like DJ with a green sweatshirt. Taylor has blonde hair, yellow shirt, tan pants, anything that looks animal activist like. With Pandora, she wears gold and silver. That's it, plus like a diamond necklace. She's very spoiled. I was kinda picturing her having the same skin tone as Sam or very very pale, like Gwen. With Everest, I don't really have anything except green in a major part of the pic. 22:22, January 19, 2011 (UTC)

KK, thanks. I think I prefer Pandora looking like Emmy more than Sam. I'm a huge fan of Emmy as well. 22:46, January 19, 2011 (UTC)

I hate to procrastinate, but now I'm hoping for all the pics done by the 28th next week because I have that day off. Expect by then! 00:48, January 21, 2011 (UTC)

What is you're favorite episodes from Adventure Time? Is the King forever! 18:47, January 21, 2011 (UTC)

My favorite episodes are, "It Came from the Nightosphere", "His Hero", "Gut Grinder", "Pilot (The first episode)", "Tree Trunks" and "Slumber Party Panic". My fav villain is Marceline. Is the King forever! 18:53, January 21, 2011 (UTC)

Cool, i also loved Donny to. Do you know how many episodes are in the Linch King arc? Is the King forever! 18:57, January 21, 2011 (UTC)

LOVE THE PARROT! That's my favorite thing about him. The parrot is epic. I'm already thinking up a few names for the parrot. 22:02, January 21, 2011 (UTC)

Well, TFC works a lot differently from normal crossovers. The cast for a chapter is thought up with the idea for the chapter. It's basically like a compiled story of one shots. The characters would have to depend. <font color="Green">Sprinklemist <font color="Orange">hasn't changed his signature in a long time. 20:52, January 22, 2011 (UTC)

I don't know at this point. <font color="Green">Sprinklemist <font color="Orange">hasn't changed his signature in a long time. 21:04, January 22, 2011 (UTC)

XD, no official name for the parrot yet. For the male twins, they have black hair. Zeke has an orange sweatshirt and black shades. Bishop has glasses and he wears a striped white and orange shirt. For the girls, they both have brown hair. Yamaza's is tucked in a ponytail and wears a purple sweater and she has glasses as well. Zee has a purple tee. I can't really think of much more for Zee. 14:18, January 23, 2011 (UTC)

Hey Toad, Total Drama China's fifth chapter is up. Hope you enjoy it. Please comment on the chapter on it's talkpage. Thanks and hope you enjoy.-user:lindsaysbiggestfan

Thanks! I really like Yamaza a lot. Zee's better in pink when I think about it. :) 21:57, January 24, 2011 (UTC)

Not necessarily, she definetly is the main female antagonist. Zee shows her bad side, but she's not a major antagonist. 21:59, January 24, 2011 (UTC)

XD, the first thing I thought when I saw Zeke was TREY! XD, um for Taryn I originally had her as Marguerite, but that pic got used so something like that, keep the blond hair. For Bradley, something that would look like Mackenzie on Mackenzie Falls on Sonny With A Chance. With Amerigo, a cross between Alejandro and Al I guess. Maggie Rose is special, she has light blond hair and a tie-dye shirt, hippie glasses, a peace necklace, and 70s pants which had like the rounded opening at the bottom of them. I for some reason either pictured her with little Chinese shoes like in A Chinese Lesson. XD, I don't know why. 22:35, January 24, 2011 (UTC)

Hey, I'm gonna start a fanfic just like Adventure Time soon. It called, ""Owen and Marcus: The Traveling Heroes" Is the King forever! 22:45, January 24, 2011 (UTC)

I'm liking Amerigo as a blond a lot. XD. Thanks! He looks really cool. I forgot to add that Zeke and Bishop's mole on their neck reminds me of a book I read: Lost and Found. 21:36, January 26, 2011 (UTC)

No! Taryn's fine, I think Anders tall might've been too tall. I agree, Maggie Rose is amazing. What were the next four you wanted to work on? 21:54, January 26, 2011 (UTC)

K, I think I gave you the one to Bradley already. Angela's Asian, because that's how my friend is, and wears a lot of pink. Black hair, but I think that was obvious. Rocky, as close to Rocky on Shake It Up as you can get. With Nathaniel, a little more pudgy guy with a long brown shirt. That's all I can think of expect for glasses and brown hair. 21:59, January 26, 2011 (UTC)

Yes. Is the King forever! 22:18, January 26, 2011 (UTC)

Hey, not to get all personal and stuff, but I was reading this page, and was wondering... Do you really live in Indiana? =D  ☃ Worker Elf Reddy ☃   Making presents  For all! 22:46, January 26, 2011 (UTC)

TDHS(Alfan3000) is the main. Totally Dramatic Island is next. Total Drama Revelations I am going to finish last.<font color="Orange">Got it memorized? <font color="Green">Got what memorized?  <font color="Orange">I have no idea.  01:38, January 27, 2011 (UTC)

Whichever Friday is closest to when the pics get down, I guess. XD. I like Nathaniel a lot as that totally describes my friend. I'm not a fan of the blue lips on Angela just because it's based off of a good friend this time. 03:27, January 27, 2011 (UTC)

I like Bradley! That's totally how I pictured him. Rocky looks cool too! For Peyton, a guy with brown hair in his blue football jersery, the number 44. He has glasses too, but they look good on him. XD. With Larry, kinda a black version of Owen pretty much. With Kennedy, I'm looking towards Tiffy with electric green instead of cyan. For Olaf, I was wondering if he could be modeled off the evil scientist shown in the beginning of Robot Chicken where he electrifies the chicken, if that's possible. 00:43, January 28, 2011 (UTC)

No, I like Olaf with blond hair and I don't care if he looks a little bit like Kermit. I really like Larry I lol'd at him the moment I saw him because I love his pic. There are relationships, a few planned already. What were your guesses? I could tell you some.

I never told you, but I really enjoy the versions of your characters as mine. They're quite amusing. XD <font color="Green">Sprinklemist <font color="Orange">hasn't changed his signature in a long time. 15:12, January 29, 2011 (UTC)

Nope, none of the relationships you guessed have been planned. Yet. I was leaning towards a Taylor-Yamaza relationship for reasons that are in the plotline. Zeke and Zee were a relationship I was thinking of, but I decided against it, thinking it would be too obvious and their names were too similar. I believe my friend Peyton was named after Peyton Manning actually XD. I like Kennedy a lot, but Kennedy does not have a relationship or even attraction to anyone. Amerigo will be somewhat of a villain, but he's not the main male villain. Chris will be the main guy villain. With Chris, my friend usually wears a black t-shirt and dark blue jeans and wears a black hat. He has brown hair, or else that's about it. With Shaun, he has light blond hair, straw hat, overalls, and a green flannel shirt. I can't wait for the pics to be done, because then I can post the first chapter on Friday! 15:14, January 29, 2011 (UTC)
