Hey Sunshine, I started a fanfic about sonic characters at camp wawanawkwa and had no idea that you had already made that. Is it okay if I continue, or do you want me to stop? I'm semi new so I had no idea.Reddude 21:24, January 31, 2010 (UTC)

I was just thinking... You should so post Chibi Kendall for featured image, here. Just sayin'. Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 01:33, February 7, 2010 (UTC)

...I'm in shock. I mean...wow. There are no words to describe how much I love it. NO WORDS. I'm literally sitting here at my computer with my mouth hanging open. I mean...AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!! YOU ROCK! BEST INTERNET PERSON EVER! I want to stare at it forever.... FOREVER. ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ -- I sing the song of the fading  silver star...  21:55, February 9, 2010 (UTC)

I completely agree, that's kind of how I imagined her hair, too! Everything is perfect. The cross-hatching is beautiful. I mean, wow. This completly takes my cover art and blasts it sky high! Wow. I just...wow. And of course! Please nominate this! I was going to wait for a little while, but I'll go ahead and put LAL back up for FS whenever you decide to nominate the picture (because it's my totally selfish sooper sekrit dream to have both LAL and it's cover art featured together, except this time it won't be my crappy cover art for it, it'll be your gorgeous picture). I mean...I love it!! -- I sing the song of the fading  silver star...  22:12, February 9, 2010 (UTC)

Okay then, I just wanted to know. Whatever LAL things you draw, I really want to see. Like really bad. (Bwahaha I'm now imagining beautiful pictures of a couple scenes that I really cannot wait to write, and I'm so walking on sunshine right now. xD) How long did it take you to draw that, anyway? -- I sing the song of the fading  silver star...  01:24, February 10, 2010 (UTC)

Hey Sunshine, I was wondering if I could use Christian McLean, and Sunny D on a special in my fanfic, Red Talk, they would break into the party, tie reddude up, and host a special. What do yoiu think? No pressure, i just thought of that as a really cool special. Please give me an answer when you get this! :)Reddude 15:18, February 10, 2010 (UTC)

Yahs! I am your friend :D and don't forget to annoy Nalyd for his birthday

I think they should. That way people who try to post chapters on separate pages can't use "Ex" as an excuse for them to do it. I'm not sure what the reason was for them being on separate pages was, but if you're willing to put them o one page, that would be great. Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 23:41, February 12, 2010 (UTC)

I guess they are kind of long, but just a bit longer than TDR or TDT (at least early) chapters. If you plan on doing a ton of chapters for it, maybe we could figure something out, but for now they should be on one page. Thanks for doing it... Eventually. XD Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 23:47, February 12, 2010 (UTC)

Sunshine, I don't mean to be a bither-bother (XD), but I remember you saying that you only follow stories from the beginning, so since my third season is starting soon, I was wondering if you'd read it. It's okay if you don't wanna, though. -- Hey, it's Anonymos! Hurry up and say hi!It's nothing illegal! I swear! 17:58, February 13, 2010 (UTC)

Hey Sunny! I talked to Nalyd about writing the next TWE chapter, and he said yeah, as long as you and Zekey are okay with it. I don't think he talked to either you or Zeke yet about it, so I'm asking you now if that's okay. =D -- D J   Spen  star!  22:22, February 13, 2010 (UTC)

Cool. I'll ask Zeke when I get the chance to. =D -- D J   Spen  star!  00:07, February 14, 2010 (UTC)

Hey, Sunshine! A while ago, I got a TWE chapter idea!

...OK, so the entire thing is a spoof of WALL-E, titled Chimm-e. Chimmy and the class volunteer for the school clean-up project. (Though Stephen was forced too due to his various misconducts.) Through a various twist of events, Chimmy gets the class to come check out the science club's project, a rocket. They end up blasting off into space, and land on the Space Colony ARK. Tdifan takes command of the vessel, with Nalyd serving as her right-hand man. Sunshine and Matt explore the ship alone, having fun just being random. The other characters can intervene at random moments or whatever, I didn't have much planned for them. Chimmy loses her Shadow balloon, and ends up getting pushed into an escape pod, but is to stupid to realize it's in self destruct mode because she is fawning over the fact that Shadow might have been in the escape pod. She somehow manages to escape alive, however, with Stephen believing her dead. Chimmy, however, is only concerned for her Shadow balloon, and Stephen pulls it out of his back pocket, which results in a hug from Chimmy, which the entire class is there to see, (Greatly embarresing Stephen.) After some of the classmates teasing Stephen for it, Nalyd rebels aagainst Tdifan, accidentaly sending the ship off course. Chimmy and Stephen attempts to calm the rest of the students down, but Nalyd also sends a large barrier at the two. Chimmy manages to stop it, allowing the students to escape, but in the process, her Shadow balloon pops. Chimmy falls into a depression, even thuogh Tdifan manages to defeat her nerd counterpart and send everyone home. The teacher dude, (Spacing on his na,e) gives them all detention for missing class. During detention, Chimmy walks in crying. She is sitting next to Stephen, who pulls anidentical Shadow ballon out from behind his back, and gives it to Chimmy. She cries, but this time they are tears of joy.

How about it? Can you feel the rhythm in my heart,  the beat's going   düm tek tek!  01:33, February 14, 2010 (UTC)

KK! Nalyd helped me come up with the idea, but I'll check with him anyways. (Don't tell anyone, I'll just copy-paste the description XD) Can you feel the rhythm in my heart,   the beat's going   düm tek tek!  19:51, February 14, 2010 (UTC)

The much enjoyed Total Drama Reality (By Sprinklemist) came to an end with someone (I wont say who won) winning, the final chapter was an awesome course type challenge. I thought the ending was well written and shocking, Go read it again and again here The Finale. In other endings Return to Total Drama Island ended (I personally have not read the fic, but I did read the finale just for this) the final chapter had the final three quit and had the 14 picked for the next season go read the finale now Here.

Hi, Sunshine, “old man of the wiki” here. Since we haven’t been introduced, I invite you to check out my User page if you haven’t already. I’m a little different from most of the folks on this wiki, in more ways than one.

I’m told that my writing style is unlike anyone else’s here. Gigi called my style “19th Century”, and I’m not sure she’s far wrong. I have two stories (both noncomps) currently posted, and one of these has been so warmly received that I am getting requests for tips on writing style. I am very much hoping that you will deem that story worthy of your considerable artistic talent.

On a related note, I will be hosting a “writer’s workshop” on my blog page when I get some time. If you would like to participate, whether to learn tips or to offer tips or both, we’d love to have you. The more, the merrier. Gideoncrawle  Sing me your song, O!

I'm glad you liked Legacy so well. You are the second to suggest that it was professional-quality stuff. (Gigi said, in pertinent part, "You know, you could be writing books.") As I mentioned before, I would love for you--probably the wiki's best artist--to do a fanart for it someday. (No hurry, you understand--it's not like I need it for a competition story.) As for your assessment of the worth of your remarks, my understanding is that you are one of the wiki's big names; so while a pixie you may be, I wouldn't go calling you "random".

Hi. I randomly felt like saying hi to you when I saw you on. :) Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 22:09, March 24, 2010 (UTC)

Any manga/anime stories for me? I left one on Tsuyoshi's talk page. Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 22:30, March 24, 2010 (UTC)

O_O I can't believe you read it, too, as I know one other person that does, and he borrows mine. Isn't it awesome? I love how it gives glimpses into the lives of people who have negative/ignorant behavior so you can see where they're coming from. That's something I try to do in my writing. I also love it for raising awareness on things. As I try to, too. Though, I wrote that way before discovering the series. How far are you into it? Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 23:08, March 24, 2010 (UTC)

I discovered it at Borders on a day when I could just sit and look through manga. They didn't have volume 1 at the time so I waited to get it later. I'm interested by autism, and kind of have trouble understanding/feeling comfortable around people with disabilities. It's helped me grow in that regard. I'm reading vol. 6, which is the latest volume in US. There are 14 in Japan, and two Japanes volumes make up 1 in America. One more to go in the U.S. Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 00:26, March 25, 2010 (UTC)

Your "different" artistic style (or styles, since you seem to be adept in several) is precisely what appeals to me. You'll recall that I, too, have built my reputation on a distinctive style, so we have that in common. On a related note, is it premature to suggest that we go onto each other's Friends lists? I see that you use the more common "gatekeeper" model, wherein people ask for admittance. I use the less common "open door" model, wherein people add themselves as they will, although I have also appended my own comments in some cases. Gideoncrawle  I have a song to sing, O!  Sing me your song, O! A wandering minstrel, I--  03:02, March 25, 2010 (UTC)

The cliffhanger of volume six made me O_O. If you read it, you should know what I mean. XD Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 23:00, March 25, 2010 (UTC)

Unfortunately, I haven't yet had a chance to read any of your stuff, although I plan to eventually. Due to other demands on my time, I have had to stick mainly to short pieces, although I have started a couple of longer works. The longest stories I have read in their entirety ("entirety" meaning "as much as is currently available") are Gigi's LAL, the "After They're Gone" collab, and TDIRM's "The Penthouse" (which strikes me as essentially a sci-fi version of LAL). I have started "Total Drama Infinity", and like it well enough that I will probably continue with it, but my preference is generally for noncompetition stories with canon characters in central roles.

It probably won't surprise you that you aren't the first to ask me for a critique. Indeed, since good story ideas rarely come to me (the idea for "Legacy", as I mentioned on a blog post, came from out of the blue) mentoring activities such as critiques, story reviews, etc. are likely to become my main function on the wiki once TDI-G&S is posted. Although it may take a long time, I intend to accommodate everyone who asks.

On a related note, the Writers Workshop may be in for a significant delay. I will be making a blog post with details.

One last thing: if you win Featured Author this month, as now seems likely, I will eat ravioli with chopsticks in your name. (I will also be doing something for Gigi if LAL wins FS.)

Hello. So, for from now on, for any admin posts I think it would be a good idea for the non-admin users to be able to give suggestions, too. Instead of (Admins Reply Only), we could say (No Roleplay or Off-Topic Discussion). I guess a few users feel like they can't let their voice be heard. How does that sound?

I fulfilled my pledge at luncheon last Saturday, honoring your recent achievement by eating ravioli with chopsticks in your name. (It's not all that hard, but you don't get much of the sauce that way.) Granted, this isn't as grand a gesture as whipping up a specialty playlist like I did for Gigi; but still, I figured you'd appreciate the thought. Gideoncrawle  I have a song to sing, O!

I have written TONS of stuff on the Total Drama Couple Talk Page, so please with ravioli on top look at them.

P.S - I heart ravioli. People say they don't like it to annoy me so I hit them with sandwiches. '''MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA! EVIL SANDWICHES!!!! '''XD I wrote a sketch for TDC on the TDC page, so please look at it.

Hi, Sunshine. Just in case you haven't been on the wiki the last couple of days, the Writer's Workshop is now open for business. It has been so successful that (at my suggestion) Sprink will be doing one of his own in the near future. Whereas mine focused on elements of writing style, his will focus on things like character development, because that's his area of expertise. Gideoncrawle  I have a song to sing, O!

Hello fellow TWE author. Zeke and I were talking, and I had an idea: After third grade, we skip to seventh grade. Zeke suggested a clip of the fifth grade graduation between the third and seventh grade.

This evening, my DW and I went out for a Mother's Day dinner with my parents. When I saw the entree, "Shrimp and Scallop Florentine Ravioli", I immediately thought of you.

Everyone loves Nalyd... XD Did you ever see the show Fosters Home for Imaginary Friends?

Master of epic pwnage 21:37, May 10, 2010 (UTC)

Great! I think my idea is pretty simple, and I already sent it to Shane, but he hasn't followed up on it. She's an actress, but more like a gothic Renaissance Faire type than a movie star type. She wears very flashy, but still dark, clothing (Feathered black dresses, fishnet leggings, heavy eye makeup etc but NO dark nails (sorry, I don't like dark nails, it's a thing of mine)), dyes her hair blood red, and has an evil smirk on her face. I picture her as being "hauntingly beautiful", if you know what I mean. Thanks for doing this!- The Anonymous User 00:05, May 11, 2010 (UTC)

Yes, I knew you don't eat meat, but I wasn't sure about shellfish, since "meat" means different things to different people. For my ravioli entree (no chopsticks, by the bye--been there, done that) the scallops were on top. The filling consisted of ricotta, spinach, and (allegedly) shrimp. The shrimp must have been ground and blended with the cheese, since I couldn't detect it by texture. I actually couldn't taste it, either, on top of the other flavors; but because I have no sense of smell to speak of, my sense of taste is probably less acute than most people's.

Do you avoid meat out of some philosophical commitment, or do you just not like the taste? The former is much the more common, but I have encountered the latter. Gideoncrawle  I have a song to sing, O!  Sing me your song, O! A wandering minstrel, I-- 01:58, May 12, 2010 (UTC)

I love the pictures you made! They are fantastic!! I agree with you about 3 and 4; they are the best of the bunch. Maybe you could color those in with how I described and I'll see which I like better. I like Chihana as a name, but she is not Japanese in origin, so I will use the name I had planned for her, maybe with "Blood Flower" as a nickname or something.

Hey Sunshine! I don't mean to bother you, but I was wondering how my "blood flower" character image was coming along? Believe me, you can take your time, as I am in no rush to upload her, but I haven't heard about her in weeks one way or another, so I figured I'd ask for an update.

I'm going to make an animation based closely off of Total Wikia Elementary and post it on the page. I'm an okay drawer, but not great, so I want to know if I could draw the pictures and you could copy them and make them in your cool cartoony way. You don't have to, but I figured you might like to. If you want to see a picture of the main characters, look at the talk page on TWE. Schwine  is the only one   who hasn't had the swine flu.  19:31, June 7, 2010 (UTC)

Welcome back
Hi, Sunshine, welcome back to the wiki. Not being the keenest observer of such things, I often don't notice when people disappear from the wiki, unless I'm actually trying to contact them; but I did notice your absence. (There, don't you feel special?) Anyway, on your blog post you asked what you had missed. I didn't want to answer you there, because it would have been a little too advertisey (is that a word? Well, it is now), but I've been up to a great deal. You got the Cliff's Notes version if you read my (updated) FU "stump speech". You can get more detail, if you like, from some of my recent blog posts. I have also added a couple of new sections to my User page (Stories in Development, and Milestones).

By the bye, did your brother tell you that Legacy won FS this month? (It's the first short story to do so.) I asked him to tell you because I thought you would want to know, and I didn't know when you would be back. Gideoncrawle I have a song to sing, O!  Sing me your song, O!  A wandering minstrel, I-- 05:39, June 8, 2010 (UTC)

Hi. You is back for good? Yay! I look forward to your stories (and *koff* comments on mine). I've been adding profiles for my fourth main story, Total Drama Wilderness. What have you been up to? Read any good manga (that we secretly share in common)? Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 20:08, June 9, 2010 (UTC)

Hm... Lemme think. I'm reading Kobato, Mixed Vegetables, and Kimi Ni Todoke at the moment. Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 20:49, June 9, 2010 (UTC)

I love that one. I'm on volume seven, so one more to go. I lend my manga to my friends, so I'm the only one who likes it a lot (but they like it). I like a lot of stuff about it. I like Shoujo better than Shounen, though. Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 20:57, June 9, 2010 (UTC)

I never realized there was confusion. I always assumed she was female, and only realized there was an issue when the mangaka mentioned it in like volume four. XD I read Kitchen Princess, too. o_O I'm only on volume three, though. I like the mean girl best (is her name Ayane?). I like Shoujo as it's more story and comedy than action. I also like Josei (like With the Light) and Seinen, too. Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 21:56, June 9, 2010 (UTC)

Thanxs,it took some time,but im glad you enjoyed it!:D-User:Lindsaysbiggestfan

Around the time we first "met" about 3 months ago, I made a couple of requests. There was (and is) no hurry; but since you entered an extended period of relative inactivity soon after, I wanted to be sure that you hadn't simply forgotten.

My first request was that we go onto each other's Friends lists. Granted, it's pretty clear that we're friends, even if we're not Friends, but I just thought I'd remind you. (I did, after all, eat ravioli with chopsticks in your name.) Note that my Friends list uses the "open door" model, wherein people add themselves as they will, rather than asking to be added.

My second, and more heartfelt, request was that you do some artwork for Legacy at your convenience. Ideally, it would be something I could link to from the story page (with a proper illustrator's credit, of course). I mention this now because chances are looking good for your LAL fanart to finally win Featured Image this month, in which case you will probably be wanting to put something new onto the FI ballot.

Hi, Sunshine, I thought you might like to know that I am doing my part to give the September newsletter plenty of content. Reddy has given me the questions for my Featured User interview, and I have begun working on my responses. It currently looks like I will have 4 full pages, maybe more. (Be honest, now: you expected nothing less from me, right?) Gideoncrawle  I have a song to sing, O!  Sing me your song, O!  A wandering minstrel, I-- 03:45, July 19, 2010 (UTC)

No, you hadn't mentioned your opinion of my avatar. Others have expressed approval of the fact that I now have one, but only IzzyK had previously commented on the specifics. (I don't really need to tell you that she liked it, do I?) Its only limitation is that it comes from an evening scene, so it's a little hard to make out detail. If you would like to see it in more detail, I use the same image (albeit cropped differently) for Izzy's headshot on her TDI-G&S character page. By the bye, do you recognize the scene? Anyway, I'm glad you liked it. I think it captures Izzy's personality nicely, and it also nicely reflects my own status as a proudly strange person. Gideoncrawle I have a song to sing, O!  Sing me your song, O!  A wandering minstrel, I-- 03:27, July 20, 2010 (UTC)

Yes, we're "Special", all right, and I'm sure most Wikians wouldn't have us any other way. My avatar screenshot comes from the beginning of "Hook, Line and Screamer", when the campers are watching the slasher flick. The line for this shot is, "He's coming out of the woods with a big, hacky chainsaw!" A few frames later, she balls her fists and declares, "That's so cool!" By the bye, (Pedant Alert) the literary convention is for the titles of short stories, TV episodes, and suchlike to be enclosed in quotes, rather than italicized; whereas the titles of novels, TV series, and so on are italicized. (In the days of typewriters, those Bronze Age gadgets I grew up with, such titles were underlined.) Thus, it's Total Drama Island, but "Hook, Line and Screamer".

Sunshine, where are you? D: It's been a week. Btw, you have 1999 edits. You're (makes a small circle with fingers) thiiiiiiis close to 2000! :D xD -- Dr. Totaldramaman You want an appointment? Then talk to me. 21:27, August 9, 2010 (UTC)

Guess who's back?-Matt/Zeke

Hi, Sunshine, I have a question of some importance. I don't want to "steal" your 2,000th edit, so you can either shoot me an e-mail with your answer--my wiki profile enables e-mail from other users--or have your brother relay your answer. Anyway, here's the question: may I use Christin McLean in LTDI? I had planned almost from the beginning to mention her by name because she ties in with the "Legend Of" part, but I'm now thinking that she may actually appear in one scene. Gideoncrawle I have a song to sing, O!  Sing me your song, O!  A wandering minstrel, I-- 21:13, August 21, 2010 (UTC)

I would like to know if I can start a new feature starting in the November newsletter called "Nad's Two Question Interviews".-Nad331

I have given Reddy my FU Inteview. It's 8 pages long and includes three questions answered more or less entirely in verse from various periods. Yes, I'm strange, but that's what you love about me. (Well, that and my mad writing skills.) Gideoncrawle  I have a song to sing, O!  Sing me your song, O!  A wandering minstrel, I-- 20:07, August 24, 2010 (UTC)

Since Reddy hasn't given you my FU interview yet, I have added a video to it. I don't think anyone's done that before. By the bye, I got your answer to my question. Clever girl. Gideoncrawle I have a song to sing, O!  Sing me your song, O!  A wandering minstrel, I-- 23:54, August 26, 2010 (UTC)

Gideoncrawle's Epic-ly Unique Featured User Interview!

 *  Excited for the interview? 

It is my desire, it is my wish

To set out to sing, to begin to recite,

To let a song of our clan glide on, to sing a family lay.

The words are melting in my mouth, utterances dropping out,

Coming to my tongue, being scattered about on my teeth.

Beloved friend, my boon companion, my fair boyhood comrade,

Start now to sing with me, begin to recite together

Now that we have come together, have come from two directions.

Seldom do we come together, meet one another

On these wretched marches, these poor northern parts.

Let us clasp hand in hand, fingers in fingers,

So that we may sing fine things, give voice to the best things

For those dear ones to hear, for those desiring to know them

Among the rising younger generation, among the people which is growing up,

Those songs got about, those lays inspired by

Old Chris McLean’s false tongue, the depths of Eva’s fury,

The point of the knife of Chef Hatchet, a man with a far-roving mind, the range of Duncan’s bow,

The remote corners of Wawanakwa’s fields, the heaths of the Muskoka District.

These my father formerly sang while carving an ax handle,

These my mother taught me while turning her spindle,

Me a child rolling on the floor in front of her knee,

Miserable milkbeard, little clabbermouth.

There was no lack of songs in the Dock of Shame, nor did Heather lack magic charms.

In the songs the bonfire grew old, in the charms Lindsay disappeared,

In the lays Cody died, Bridgette in her frolics.

There are still other songs, magic words learned of,

Plucked from the wayside, broken off from the heather,

Torn from thickets, dragged from saplings,

Rubbed off the top of hay, ripped from lanes

When I was going about as a herdsman, as a child in cow pastures,

On honeyed hillocks, on lovely knolls,

Following dusky Blackie, going along with spotted Frisky.

The cold recited me a lay, the rain kept bringing me songs.

The winds brought another song, the waves of the sea drove some to me.

The birds added songs, the treetops magic sayings.

These I wound up in a ball, arranged in a clew.

I thrust the ball into my sled, the clew into my sleigh;

I pulled it home on my sled, on my sleigh to the threshing barn,

Put it up in the storehouse loft in a round copper box.

For a long time my lays have been in the cold, housed in darkness.

Shall I pull the lays out of the cold, draw the songs out of the frost,

Bring my box into the house to the end of the long bench

Under the fine ridgepole, under the lovely roof?

Shall I open my chest of words, unlock my song box,

Clip the end off the ball, undo the knot in the clew?

Thus I will sing a really fine lay, intone a beautiful one

Out of rye bread, barley beer.

If no one happens to bring any beer, serves no table beer,

I will sing from a leaner mouth, intone on water

To gladden this evening of ours, to honor this memorable day

Or to delight the morrow, to begin a new morn.


 * --from The Kalevala (compiled by Elias Lonnrot, translated by Francis Peabody Magoun, Jr.)


 *  What was your first thought when you became a Featured User? 

I thought, “Yes! Now I can make my 1,000th edit something truly extraordinary!” The prospect of using my 1,000th edit for my “acceptance speech” was, in fact, the main reason I cared whether I was Featured in July, or August, or September. (Had it taken much longer than that, I might have started to feel like a TAU-style perpetual bridesmaid.)


 * Which of your stories, finished, in-progress, or in-production do you think the wiki will enjoy most?

Well, Legacy was lightning in a bottle. In addition to introducing the wiki community to my writing style—a style unlike any other seen here before—Legacy has a level of emotional power that, quite frankly, I hadn’t thought my writing capable of. Because it was my first story, and was such a huge success (the first short story to win Featured Story honors, among other distinctions) it will surely be the story that every other story I ever write here is measured against. Early success can be a mixed blessing that way.

That said, I do have one story in development that, if reader reaction to the previews is any indication, has the potential to be as big a hit as Legacy was. That story is my TDI reimagining, discussed more fully below.


 *  What is your favorite story/series to read on the wiki? 

My preference is generally for noncompetition stories with canon characters in the central roles. As with almost everyone else here, Gigi’s signature story, Life After Lies is a favorite of mine, and I also have a high opinion of the After They're Gone collaboration. Nor shall I fail to speak well of TDIRM’s one-shots, for that is the story form where I think he is at his best.

Recently, I finally found the time to start reading a few competition stories. My favorite type of competition story is the TDI reimagining, and my favorite of these is Kgman04’s reimagining, Total Drama Island...? My favorite original-character competition story, at this point, is Total Drama the New Challenge, by UltimateTORINOR, partly because the level of descriptive detail is a big help in keeping the characters straight. I routinely support both stories on the Featured Story ballot.


 *  What do you think you are best known for on the wiki? 

Being the longest-lived and most cleverly disguised of the QOS sockpuppets. *revives fainted Admins with smelling salts*

Seriously, though, I’m best known for being different. There are just so many ways, from writing style to demographics, that I am like no one else here. My writing style, which Gigi has called “elegant” on more than one occasion, helped to put me on the map, and I tend to apply the same style to such mundane things as blog comments and talk page posts. (And, naturally, to this interview.)

Most of my differences are related, in one way or another, to my status as the only registered Old Fart on a kid-dominated wiki. This means, among other things, that I was brought up in a different way and my life has different reference points. For example, I remember what life was like before the Internet, which didn’t come into widespread use until I was in my 30s. I even remember what life was like before things like VCRs and cable TV, neither of which became common until I had reached adulthood. I remember, from the days before we could time-shift TV programming, how I would hurry home from high school so I could catch the 4:00 start of the Star Trek reruns.

So, how have I thrived here as the demographic outsider? By treating the kids here as equals and by not trying to hide my age.

There’s an old adage that states, “If you want to be respected, you have to be respectable.” If I had tried to pass myself off as a teen, I would eventually have been found out, and people would probably have thought that I was a pedophile or something. Instead, I was very upfront about my Old Fartness and became a respected elder statesmen. Furthermore, I gained that respect, not be demanding it as some sort of birthright, but by earning it through my conduct and my writing.

That said, there may be some here who are uncomfortable with my “special” qualities. If there are such people here, they haven’t gotten on my case; they’ve merely avoided contact with me. That’s their prerogative and, if I may be so bold, their loss.


 *  Which user(s) inspire you the most to write fanfiction for Total Drama island? 

That’s a bit of a trick question, in a way, because writing fanfiction was not my original purpose in coming to the wiki. Originally, I was going to become a registered user for one purpose, and one purpose alone: to promote my crossover, Total Drama Island, by Gilbert and Sullivan (TDI-G&S). Because TDI-G&S (pronounced “Tiddigus”) is heavily hyperlinked to other sites and retells the canon story arc instead of offering an original plot, it is as much a work of scholarship as it is a story.

Then, one day, whilst working on TDI-G&S, I suddenly had an idea that became the premise for Legacy. The rest, as they say, is history.

I have, however, written two things for the wiki that were expressly inspired by wiki users: Gigi in one case, and the Courtney haters in the other.

Gigi was one of my first close friends on the wiki, so much so that my correspondence accounts for almost half of her 2nd archive. When Life After Lies became only the second noncomp to be enshrined as a Featured Story (back in April), I honored her achievement by drawing from the TDI-G&S verses to create a Gilbert &amp; Sullivan playlist for LAL. Originally consisting of 15 songs, I have since expanded the playlist to twice that, and I expect to be adding even more when Gigi posts LAL’s remaining chapters. (Will there be selections for every new chapter? Regrettably, I can’t promise that.) The playlist currently has over 70 minutes of music.

Going from the sublime to the ridiculous, I have read several Courtney-bashing stories, and I found them uniformly dreadful. As I have noted elsewhere, there’s nothing inherently wrong with having a single character suffer a string of misfortunes, since most comedy is based on the misfortunes of others. (How many readers’ hearts were made glad every time something unpleasant happened to Heather, especially in Season 1? Let’s see a show of hands!) For most people, though, such mishaps can quickly cease to be funny if it seems that it’s being done viciously, and viciousness is the common failing of the Courtney-bashing stories I have read.

Perversely, the execrable quality of these stories is what inspired me to write my own. I wanted to show the Courtney-haters (and other character bashers, for that matter) how it’s done, so to speak. I wanted to show them that they can beat on their favorite punching bag, if they must, in a tasteful way and without sacrificing story quality. The result was Courtney and the Violin of Despair, scheduled for completion on 6 September.


 *  What do you plan for the future, near and far, for on the wiki? 

For the immediate future, I will continue posting the wiki version of TDI-G&S. Posting one episode chapter per week, the scheduled completion date is 31 October. This may be a moot point, though, because now that the full version is available for download, I suspect the wiki version won’t be getting nearly as much traffic as before.

I also have a behind-the-scenes role on the writing team for Spenny’s brainchild, No Boundaries: A Wikia Pokemon Story. Because my knowledge of the Pokemon universe is limited, I won’t actually be writing chapters. Instead, I suggest ways to improve phrasing, word choice and descriptive color without changing the essential character of my teammates’ writing. I have always been better at refining than creating, and this “copy editor” role plays to my strengths. Spenny and co. are also planning to use some of my ideas for working in TDI characters and references.

For the more distant future, my TDI reimagining, The Legend of Total Drama Island (LTDI) is my main project, and my progress has been promising. I now have most of the elimination order set, I have some idea of what I want to happen in nearly all of the episodes, and I have a number of finished scenes.

I have posted the Prologue to reserve the story title, and my best guess is that LTDI will officially launch in Spring 2011. The launch date is distant for two reasons: first, my defense against writing myself into a corner (as well as my defense against writer’s block, Sunshine Syndrome, and related ailments), is to not start posting a story until I’ve finished writing it; and second, my sports photography takes a great deal of my time in the fall and winter.

Given my strengths and weaknesses, as noted above, I expect LTDI to follow the original more closely than some reimaginings. Indeed, one of my most important early changes merely corrects a continuity lapse in the original. As with the premise of Legacy, it is a minor change with far-reaching effects. (Another early change, though, is a major departure.)

For the most part, the players who will get deep into the game are either (a) those whom I feel the most comfortable writing for, or (b) those whom I have a specific need for in one late episode or another. How well I liked a given character in the original actually has little bearing on how far that character will go in LTDI.

As I have mentioned elsewhere, LTDI will have a couple of structural elements that, as far as I know, nobody has used here before. This is in line with the tradition of the wiki’s writers breaking new ground with their first competition stories. I also expect that LTDI will be quite long, because my writing style is so description-intensive. (I don’t expect it to be as long as Ult’s story will eventually be, but it may come close.)

In addition, I expect LTDI to make certain references to the wiki’s users and content. I’m not actively trying to think of such references, but a few have come to mind unbidden. Currently planned references include one of Sunshine’s characters (who is mentioned by name, and who may even appear in one scene), one of Spenny’s stories (also mentioned by name, although there is no reference to the content), and a certain pixie remarkable for culinary specialization. I also have ideas for a couple of LAL references, including a parody of the torture scene.


 *  Where’s Waldo? 

Hereupon we’re both agreed, *conspiratorial wink-wink-nudge-nudge*

All that we two

Do agree to

We’ll secure by solemn deed,

To prevent all

Error mental.

You on Sunshine are to call

With a story

Grim and gory

How this Waldo died, and all

I declare to,

You will swear to.

Tell a tale of cock and bull,

Of convincing detail full

Tale tremendous,

Heaven defend us!

What a tale of cock and bull!


 * --W.S. Gilbert, The Yeomen of the Guard

* speaks normally* Waldo lies at the bottom of the river Thames, may God have mercy on his soul. I left him there after his ill-fated attempt to escape from the Tower of London, where he had been in residence after being condemned to die for having dealings with the Devil. It all came to pass thusly:

thumb|300px|right|Waldo's Fate

* cues music*

Like a ghost his vigil keeping—


 * Or a specter all-appalling—

I beheld a figure creeping—


 * I should rather call it crawling—

He was creeping—


 * He was crawling—

He was creeping, creeping—


 * Crawling—

He was creeping—


 * He was crawling—

He was creeping, creeping—


 * Crawling—

Not a moment’s hesitation—

I myself upon him flung,

With a hurried exclamation

To his draperies I hung;

Then we closed with one another

In a rough-and-tumble smother;

That fiend Waldo and no other

Was the man to whom I clung!

After mighty tug and tussle—


 * It resembled more a struggle—

He by dint of stronger muscle—


 * Or by some infernal juggle—

From my clutches quickly sliding—


 * I should rather call it slipping—

With a view, no doubt, of hiding—


 * Or escaping to the shipping—

With a gasp, and with a quiver—


 * I’d describe it as a shiver—

Down he dived into the river,

And, alas, I cannot swim.

Ingenuity is catching;

With the view my King of pleasing,

Arquebus from sentry snatching—


 * I should rather call it seizing—

With an ounce or two of lead

I dispatched him through the head!

I discharged it without winking,

Little time I lost in thinking,

Like a stone I saw him sinking—


 * I should say a lump of lead!

Like a stone, my boy, I said—


 * Like a heavy lump of lead.

Like a stone, my boy, I said—


 * Like a heavy lump of lead.

Anyhow, the man is dead,

Whether stone or lump of lead!


 * --from The Yeomen of the Guard


 *  What is your favorite character to watch on Total Drama? 

The Season 1 Gwen. I didn’t like the way the Season 2 writers defanged her and, as I write, she hasn’t done much in Season 3, although she seems to have regained much of her original attitude.

Other favorites include LeShawna and Izzy. Eva is my favorite minor character (what can I say? I like girls) and I was disappointed when the writers turned her into a one-joke character. Chef Hatchet is my favorite male character, and #3 overall behind Gwen and LeShawna. I like the Season 3 newcomers much better than I thought I might, although they’re not likely to ever be among my favorites.

Conversely, the characters I like least are the Season 2 Courtney (I have no serious objections to the Season 1 and Season 3 versions), the Season 2 Duncan (Season 2 DxC is a match made in hell) and Owen.

I rank Owen so low mainly because he was so heavily overused in Seasons 1&2. For example, I don’t automatically object to bathroom humor, for which Owen is the show’s go-to character, but I do think that a little goes a long way. Most of his other running gags didn’t age much better. With his excesses toned down in TDWT, I would probably rank the Season 3 Owen somewhere in the middle.


 *  Sad the interviews over? 

And now the measure of my song is done:

The work has reached its end; the book is mine,

None shall unwrite these words: nor angry Jove,

Nor war, nor fire, nor flood,

Nor venomous time that eats our lives away.

Then let that morning come, as come it will,

When this disguise I carry shall be no more,

And all the treacherous years of life undone,

And yet my name shall rise to heavenly music,

The deathless music of the circling stars.

As long as this is the Eternal Wiki

These lines shall echo from the lips of men,

As long as fanfiction speaks truth on earth,

That immortality is mine to wear.

Finally, back to regular chat! XD
Sunshine, I know you're planning to do a story update with your 2,000th edit, but I have another suggestion you might consider:

Keep a close eye on the Featured Story voting. With no clear pre-race favorite, this has been a wide open election. Reddy has withdrawn his story (which had been leading with 7 votes) and has thrown his support behind Violet Hill, which now leads with 6. However, 5 other stories (including my own TDI-G&S, although I would defer to VH in the event of a tie) currently have 5 votes.

With no high-profile competition story finishing up, this may be Violet Hill's best chance, and I know you have a high opinion of that story. So, if the month end comes and VH needs your vote (and if you are willing to support only one story, instead of supporting several like you usually do), putting VH over the top might be a worthy task for Edit #2,000 if you haven't already posted your story update.

New Story Premiers
So this is my first ever contribution to the newsletter. I wasn't quite sure whether "new stories" referred to stories published since the last newsletter or stories that will start by the November newsletter. So I'll do both. Bear with me here. First, there have been an overabundance of stories in the past two months, too mmany to name here. I thought I'd name some of the most popular. First, Gideon's started his Courney bashing story Courtney and the Violin of Despair. Also, you shouldn't skip Fanny's Total Drama Road Trip, not to be confused with Nonny's Total Drama: Road Trip, which is on hiatus.

Next up, the upcoming stories. Of course, Sprink has more tricks up his sleeve with the sequel to TDTT: Total Drama Super Powered. And also just around the corner, Nayld has a new story coming. It would be nice if I could remember the name, but, alas, I have an extreme case of laziness and cannot bring myself to search for it.

Well, that's all for this time. Remember I'm new to this and, please, go easy on the criticism.

It happened, Sunny. *sighs* I lost TDAuthor for the second time in a row at the same point in the game... WHY???????????//?////??? ;( (sorry if this sounds like a rant, I'm just...) -- D J   Spen  star!  20:05, August 31, 2010 (UTC)

Welcome (officially) back, Sunshine, and don't forget the FS voting. VH effectively leads by 2 votes, since I have stated my intent to cede the tiebreaker if it comes to that, but I'm sure TDIRM would appreciate your support. Besides, you never know how the last-minute voters might break. Gideoncrawle I have a song to sing, O!  Sing me your song, O!  A wandering minstrel, I-- 21:18, August 31, 2010 (UTC)

Following up on your blog comment: yes, LTDI does seem to be rather tailored for you. Although I would like to claim that the "Duncan-fangirling-inducing scene" was written with you in mind (just as I can't see ravioli on a restaurant menu anymore without thinking about you), it's not true. I got the idea when a faintly similar scene in someone else's fanfic reminded me of an apparently true story that I had read about as a child. (And yes, I remember a fair amount of its detail almost 40 years later.) Duncan will essentially re-enact that story. I don't think it's revealing too much to tell you that the scene shows Duncan's softer side and is currently scheduled for the paintball hunt, although the timing is subject to change. The scene serves the same purpose as the acquisition of Bunny II in the original, as Bunny II is not currently scheduled to appear in LTDI.

I have, however, done two things specifically for you: (1) I am using Christin instead of a relative of my own invention; and (2) I recently changed the elimination order to enhance the Sunshine reference.

Here's a tidbit that might interest you. Yesterday my wife met a couple of her friends for lunch at a place billing itself as a "Mongolian Grill". (And since she's not a big eater, I got to sample the leftovers.) Although this place presumably uses Mongolian spices and preparation methods, the range of stuff they treat in this way is pretty eclectic. My DW's meal included such things as Mongolian mahi-mahi (yes, I know that wouldn't interest you), Mongolian calamari (same again), and *drumroll* Mongolian cheese ravioli.

Have you ever had Mongolian ravioli? If not, that's something you can add to your bucket list, and something you can add to the Pixie's repertoire. Gideoncrawle I have a song to sing, O!  Sing me your song, O!  A wandering minstrel, I-- 21:41, September 4, 2010 (UTC)

The ravioli itself was pretty standard; the sauce and the bed of rice are what made it Mongolian. Mongolian cuisine (as served in the States, anyway) is similar to Chinese, as you might expect. It tends to be on the spicy side.

On an unrelated note, something I forgot to mention: I recently put up a blog post, in case you missed it. Gideoncrawle I have a song to sing, O!  Sing me your song, O!  A wandering minstrel, I-- 02:12, September 5, 2010 (UTC)

Koops' Epic FU Interview
Are you ready for the interview, Koops?

I'm ready eggy, waffles, and spaghetti.

What was your first thought about being Featured User?

'''It's about time! GOSH!!! (XD JK) I was really surprised at how many votes I got and how I finally became one.'''

'''Are you sad because there wasn’t a Featured Tie? '''

Yeah, I'm pretty annoyed it couldn't happen, but I bet TAU will win it soon.

What do you feel is your best work that you have completed or are in the process of writing?

My best work would have to be Total Drama Havoc; a lot of users considered a big improvement over Total Drama Chaos and its on the Current Favorites selection too.

If you could change something about your stories what would it be?

Some of the scenes in Chaos and Havoc, I'm also redoing Heroes Vs. Villains, because of how mediocre my writing was back then compared to today.

'''What user(s) inspire you to write more? '''

'''Fanny, and Shane; Fanny for all his awesome comments he leaves on my stories' talk pages and Shane for helping me unleash my inner potential and encouraging me to do more. Also, I know there's no "Who is your favorite author" question, but I'd still like to give a shout-out to Nalyd and Sprink as I think they tie for best author in my opinion.'''

What’s your all-time favorite story on the wiki?

My all-time favorite stories to be more precise are Total Drama Paradise, Total Drama Amazon, Total Drama Tropics, Total Drama Infinity.

Who is your favorite male and female character on the wiki?

'''My favorite male character is Stevie; he's just so lovable and probably the best of the gentle giant types. My favorite female characters is Andrea; she's awesome and has a very emotional past which makes you feel sorry for her.'''

What do you feel you are best known for on the wiki?

The amount of XD's I bring to the Chatango and IRC chat rooms and my lovable and unfortunately music-less parodies.

What do you plan for your future here on the wiki?

'''For the future, I have my third season called Total Drama: The Outback (Nobody take that title please) where there will be 20 characters fighting for more money at the Australian Outback. I'm also planning a sequel to Heroes Vs. Villains called Total Drama Users where 18 users (Don't start asking me now) compete for an unknown amount of money. There's also Total Drama Vacation and my collab with Fanny, Total Drama: New York City.'''

What advice to you give to the newer users on the wiki?

Just keep trying your hardest and don't take a hiatus as soon as you come to the wiki.

What is your favorite TDI character?

Definitely Heather!

Where’s Waldo?

'''I don't know, but he stole my wallet, my car keys, and my XBOX 360 and once I find him I'm gonna... (TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES XD)'''

MEEP!

PIKACHU!

Sad the interview has come to an end?

'''IT CAN'T BE OVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (XD JK) Yes, I'm sad, and once something else happens, I can get interviewed for that too. :P'''

Don't you feel special?
After weeks of leaning progressively further in that direction, I have decided that Christin McLean will definitely appear in one LTDI scene. (I have the situation in mind.) To do her justice in this appearance, I need your thoughts on what she would be like in her early 30s.

Here's some more fodder for your theory that LTDI is effectively being written for Your Brightness, whether by accident or by design: I have already mentioned that I am using Christin (as opposed to a creation of my own) for no other reason than to please you. Now, though, you're getting a chance to be a creative consultant for the story. Aren't you just feeling more and more special all the time? On a related note, be sure to vote in my LTDI poll, if you haven't already. Gideoncrawle I have a song to sing, O!  Sing me your song, O!  A wandering minstrel, I-- 03:26, September 23, 2010 (UTC)

Wow, I never thought I'd see the day. Sweet little Sunshine has actually cast an Oppose vote on one of the Feature ballots. You told me once that you couldn't remember the last time you had done that, or words to that effect.

On an unrelated note, 'twere a clever bit of manipulation, making me read TWE season 1. (I have read a couple of Season 2 chapters, but haven't had time to really get into it.) Oh well, now that I know most of the relevant users better, maybe I'll get more out of it now. Besides, I'll have plenty of time, because <Minor Spoiler Alert> Christin's scene isn't until the Epilogue </Spoiler Alert>. I did read what there is of TDI Bachelorette last night.

You can totally join the writing team for When Reality Becomes Too Real. Since you don't do chat sites I'll tell you about what I'm writing at the moment. I'm currently on Chapter 1, writing different POV's as that's what the fanfiction is written in. And the chapter is pretty much the characters finding out about the death of DJ, shocker! You can like write any characters besides Lizzie, Chris, and Bridgette's POV. Each chapter you, me and Jess will write different characters POV's and then you can like post me the chapter in talk and when I find the chapter I'll copy it and delete so no spoilers. Jess, will give me it through Chatango though. This is only so I can put it all together and then post! :P Also, Chapter 0.5 isn't finished recaping about what's happening in the future and it'd be awesome if you could put up what you want to see the characters doing in the future. I have like 17 one's done and if you could right some of the others, I'd be really happy! Anyways, that's pretty much it for now. Ask me any questions oh, and I almost forgot, here's a preview about a little what I'm looking for in a POV.

Bridgette's Point of View

I didn’t find about the incident until 6:00. I was walking home from a glorious day by the sea. The sun was setting already and I was ready to go and eat dinner with my family, when Chris McLean walked by.

“Oh my gosh, Chris McLean, it’s me Bridgette,” Bridgette says in amazement.

“Hey Bridgette, it’s the second Total Drama Island camper I’ve seen or heard of today,” Chris replies.

Bridgette stops in her tracks and questions, “Heard of?”

“You didn’t here earlier in the morning DJ was found in a room dead. He got hit by three bullets.” Chris explains. “The cop’s are assuming they were in a row, because he was long gone by the time they got there.”

“That’s so sad,” Bridgette says slowly while wiping a few tears as she says it.

As you can see th POV is unfinished. Anyways, I'm so glad I have Sunshine in zhe writing team! TTYL --<font color="#00008B">HINT:A AWESOME USER, <font color="#D2691E">that loves Chatango and Chatting but wonders, <font color="#00FFFF">what's with Cyan? 20:34, September 27, 2010 (UTC)

I think it sounds really good and you can do as many as you would like! Bridgette is living with Geoff and they have 2 kids. DJ is dead but Chris is currently living in a condo a couple condo's down from where DJ died and experienced it. Also, he says denies it though. I'm going to do Sadie, Katie, and all new characters when I'm done with Chris (forgets if you picked Katie as one of them). I'm excited to see the final product of chapter 1. Next chapter will be the funeral gone bad. I still don't know who the killer of DJ is yet though. It WON'T be a villain I think because then it's too obvious. I'm going to talk to Jess next as she hasn't picked any characters to write for but I'll mention the ones already took by you.

A couple of questions, Sunshine. First, is the November newsletter going to be up soon? Second, how are we going to get to it under the new wiki skin?

I think the best course would be to set up a new Forum for the newsletters, since the "Community" dropdown (formerly sidebar) menu still links to the Forum Index normally. As it stands now, the older newsletters are under the "Watercooler" Forum but the more recent newsletters aren't, and there's currently no good way to get to the latter. In any case, I'll suggest again that the Community Corner section of the Activity Feed page have a link to the latest newsletter.

A proposal
Sunshine, I have a "business proposition" for you. I once mentioned on Legacy's talk page that I had begun to sketch out a sixth chapter to that story, but abandoned it because I thought it would overshadow Heather's revelation at the end of Chapter 4, which is supposed to be the story's dramatic high point. I have decided to put up a blog post revealing the plot (which I finally wrote down only a couple of days ago) of the "lost" chapter.

I have several ideas for when I might post this tidbit. I might do it as a standalone post, or in conjunction with something else, e.g. an LTDI preview, an edit count milestone, or for my first anniversary (early February). Your update on the status of your Legacy fanart has given me yet another option.

When you recommitted to a Legacy fanart, back when you were sitting at 1,999 edits, you said you would give it "it's own amazing shiny blog post". When you're ready, we can coordinate our timing, if you like, and make our blog posts more or less together, as companion pieces. Gideoncrawle I have a song to sing, O!  Sing me your song, O!

Meh Interviews!
Here's my Card's interview:

Mrdaimion: 'Ello, I'm here to interview Cards777, who was recently eliminated from total Drama Author Six. Cards, are you glad to have me interview you?

Cards: Yes, I'm very glad.

Mrdaimion: Well, the first question involoved with TDA6 is: Cards, how far did you think you'd go from the very begenning? Were you surprised when you passed the preliminaries?

Cards: Honestly, I thought I would make it to around the final five or final four. Yes and no. I was surprised because they were so many great writers! No because, I believed in myself.

Mrdaimion: Who do you personally think will win Total Drama Author Six?

Cards: If I had to pick right now, DJSpenstar. He is a very, very, very talented author.

Mrdaimion: I see said the blind man. Anyway, what was the reason you didn't write an entry for that challenge, resulting in your elimination?

Cards: I was working on a story that week. I didn't finish due to homework/schoolwork, friends, and practices.

Mrdaimion: If you learned anything from being eliminated from TDA6, what was it? Cards: Always believe in your writing. Always be proud of what you wrote... even if you didn't finish it.

Mrdaimion: What was your least favorite challenge out of TDA history, since you were in more than one?

Cards: It was in TDA3, the fairy tale themed challenge. I'm not good at writing fairy tales.

Mrdaimion: To continue interviewing tradition, where's Waldo?

Cards:... I am Waldo...

Mrdaimion: Then where's Carmon Sandiego? :O

Cards: I don't know who that is... I googled her... and I think she's in Australia.

Cards: Very sad... 8,',',',','( Meh Ult interview:

Mrdaimion: 'Ey everyone, I'm here to interview the guy who everyone thought would make it really far in Total Drama Author Six, Ult! Ult, are you happy to have me interview you?

Mrdaimion: If you weren't forced to quit by school work, what placing do you think you would have gotten? Were you very surprised to have passed the preliminaries?

''Ult: If I wasn't forced to prematurely retire, I would say that I would have tried my hardest in the challenges. After that was complete, who really knows what would have happened? To answer your second question, I wasn't very surprised when I found out that I had been chosen to compete, as I had spent many hours developing and creating it. I felt that I had earned the spot.''

Mrdaimion: Who do you hope to see win Total Drama Author Six?

''Ult: That's a tough question. There are many good authors left in the competition, and I would be happy to see any of the remaining competitors to stand atop the podium, victorious. ''

Mrdaimion: Do you think you'll ever be able to sign up for another season of Total Drama Author?

Ult: Sadly, I think it will be unlikely for such an event to occur, for various reasons.

Mrdaimion: If you learned anything from Total Drama Author Six, what was it?

''Ult: If you let your imagination run wild, there are no limits to what you can write about. An innocent superhero story can become one of tragedy, and an antagonist of a show can be shown to have tragic reasons for acting so hostilely.''

Mrdaimion: To continue interviewing tradition, where's Waldo?

''Ult: That is the one question I will be unable to answer, as the man has been able to evade my watchful gaze every time I try to find him. ''

Mrdaimion: If that's true, where's Carman San Diego?

''Ult: I believe she was taken off to prison after I successfully finished the game. I was quite young at the time, so the details are a bit foggy, you'll understand. Hopefully, she still remains there. Otherwise, I fear for the safety of the world. ''

Mrdaimion: Are you sad that the interview's over?

''Ult: I'm unconsolable. ''

(I'll interview myself, and then I'll be done with the interviews)

I like that in Nalyd-Ravi, Nalyd is suddenly really immature. XD I think in TWHS, Elmo will be the only one to realize his life is crazy. Ravi kind of notices, but she doesn't feel like fixing anything. XD Nalyd Renrut - Legendary  Snipe! Master of epic pwnage 00:57, November 17, 2010 (UTC)

I'm glad that you liked that picture on my blog; I somehow had a feeling you'd like it since you say that you like everything adorable and cute. Same here! Umm, when you mentioned that you have a cute picture of Jessie somewhere, can you please upload it? I heard you're a really great artist. Thanks! He ate my heart, he a-a-ate my heart.

The office where I work has a new employee in Marketing. Her last name is--I kid you not--Sunshine. Gideoncrawle I have a song to sing, O!  Sing me your song, O!  A wandering minstrel, I-- 01:03, November 18, 2010 (UTC)

I rather thought you'd get a kick out of it. I'd never encountered "Sunshine" as a surname, either. I've seen it as a given name, but it's usually encountered as a nickname. Gideoncrawle I have a song to sing, O!  Sing me your song, O!  A wandering minstrel, I-- 06:10, November 19, 2010 (UTC)

You're not going to believe this
I'm still deciding how best to work it in, but today I got an idea for a second (and probably longer) Sunshine reference for LTDI. This one may mention other members of her clan as well, most likely Ravioli. Just thought you'd like to know. Also, as of today, LTDI has its first "fourth wall" joke. These are both welcome bits of humor in what's starting to look like a fairly dark story. Gideoncrawle I have a song to sing, O!  Sing me your song, O!  A wandering minstrel, I-- 06:41, November 20, 2010 (UTC)

Hey, Sunshine. I just wanted to say that I found a bizarre connection to you while watching The Annoying Orange the other day. The creepy orange said, "Wow, your whole family's made of pasta! Do you have a sister named Ravioli?" XD Dark clouds all  around, lightning rain is  pouring down!  02:26, November 21, 2010 (UTC)

Oh, and I forgot to mention this in my self-review, Sunshine, even though LeShawna and Noah's roles were minor in Auroral Nights, in the sequel, they'll have a much more focused role.... in a way.

Hey how's When Reality Becomes Too Real... going? Jess is almost done and I am currently finishing where they are now. I need you to look at that and check it after what you've already wrote down. You may need to change a few things like how Duncan is in jail so if he started out in an apartment you'd have to explain how he escaped from jail. If you don't, I'll revise it for you when you give me your final draft. I understand if you haven't even started yet as school can get in the way but I was hoping to get it up soon. --<font color="#00008B">HINT:A AWESOME USER, <font color="#D2691E">that loves Chatango and Chatting but wonders, <font color="#00FFFF">what's with Cyan? 21:40, November 23, 2010 (UTC)

You have the POV's of Alejandro, Chef, Noah, Cody, Courtney, Izzy, Heather, Duncan, and Gwen. It's okay if you haven't started. I'm only done with 2 of my 10 but I do want the chapter posted next week and remember you give it to me first and then when I have all the writing, I post the chapter. --<font color="#00008B">HINT:A AWESOME USER, <font color="#D2691E">that loves Chatango and Chatting but wonders, <font color="#00FFFF">what's with Cyan? 23:16, November 23, 2010 (UTC)

Hi, Sunshine, I wanted to touch base on a couple of projects. First, how about we shoot for the week between Christmas and New Year's for our double-barreled Legacy blog posts? If you're ready sooner, so much the better. Second, I hereby formally request permission to use Sunshine in LTDI, since the 2nd reference I told you about has expanded to the point that I am now thinking she will actually appear. Sort of. All details are subject to change at this point, but <SPOILER ALERT> I currently envision Sunshine as Izzy's imaginary friend. At some point, Izzy might even claim to have been to Sunshine's homeland. </Spoiler Alert> (By the bye, I wasn't joking about the Duncshine fanservice scene. I think you'll get a kick out of it.) On a related note, I may need Ravi, too. No, I'm NOT planning a threesome scene--I really can't imagine Sunshine sharing Duncan with anyone. Gideoncrawle I have a song to sing, O!  Sing me your song, O!  A wandering minstrel, I-- 05:24, November 24, 2010 (UTC)

We seem to think a lot alike. Frankly, I'm not sure which of us should be more worried at that. (My strangeness may be more subtle than yours, but it's no less strange for that.) As stated by the pin-on button that my DW acquired at a sci-fi convention some years ago, "I don't suffer from insanity, I revel in it." Speaking of the missus, I think you and she would get on very well. She's still a kid at heart and, except for her not being a vegetarian, you strike me as kindred spirits.

Hey, Sunny. Now that you've finished TWE (which I've patiently waited for :D), can you write TWP, like, in a few days? I'll read TWE later, as I'm watching TV, and playing Plants vs. Zombies (my gave iPod game :D). -- mtdm  doz knot no   hoe 2 spill  21:46, November 28, 2010 (UTC)

Haha. That is funny. The Purple Hat Society is based on The Red Hat Society, a group of elderly women that prominently wear red or purple hats. It is funny that she was crossing the street. Hopefully she wasn't being carried by a spiky haired flying teenager. :P Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 21:44, November 30, 2010 (UTC)

One never knows. XD I got a new manga the other day that may be my new favorite called The Stellar Six of Gingacho. It's so sweet, slow-paced, slice of life, and not all trashy and dating related (well, there's an imagined scene of "sexy dancing"). XD The main characters are thirteen, so that makes it less like a romance that's so prevelant in mange. Anyway, I added chapter trivia for TDT and TDW. I know you enjoy that. I have more time, so I hope to be able to get those done, soon. Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 22:19, November 30, 2010 (UTC)

I haven't watched the latest episodes of it. I keep meaning to, but haven't felt like it, or I've been busy. Hehe. Yesterday I drew a 'realistic' picture of Stevie that was both awesome and frightening. XD I haven't tried to draw anything realistic in a few years, as I never felt I was very good at it, but this one I liked. Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 15:25, December 1, 2010 (UTC)

That sounds really funny. XD As for Stevie, he still has the creepy big eyes (though slightly more realistic), and his nose is about the only thing I had trouble making more realistic. Maybe if I can ever scan properly, I'll post it. As for Symbiotic Titan... I don't like Genndy Tartakovsky's serious stuff. Samurai Jack had an awful message of 'violence is always appropriate for taking revenge'... And I don't like the character models on Symbiotic Titan. XD Especially of the main guy and girl. I do like Dexter's Lab, though (just not those occasional serious episodes). I wish Genndy would go back to comedy... Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 00:37, December 2, 2010 (UTC)

I have a friend who likes Samurai Jack, but it is seriously one of my least favorite shows... Dexter's Lab, though... It rocks. A clip from my favorite episode. I don't think my art is anything special, it's just more fluid, and I can barely remember the last time I drew something not in TDI style. My preferred style is fairly plain, and almost TDI-ish. I absolutely can't draw well with anyone watching. XD Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 21:58, December 2, 2010 (UTC)

I personally try to resist being influenced by other styles, though TDI is the one that really caught my eye. I did draw some anime style stuff, but I'm not great at it. I didn't let it influence my style. The eyes are the usual size. XD Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 22:16, December 2, 2010 (UTC)

Hm. That's all quite interesting. I wish my style was that complicated. XD Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 22:29, December 2, 2010 (UTC)

No, you never did. That's pretty funny. I always wondered if I turned people on to any music. That's the only song by Marina and the Diamonds that I really like, that I've heard. XD And I love the official video. XD I'm glad I had a hand in that. :) I love lesser known music. Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 22:38, December 2, 2010 (UTC)

I used to get violently angry when listening to modern stuff, so I would listen to Oldies. Now I has my MP3 player most of the time. XD Go listen to Lemonade by Cocorosie. Lalainee introduced me to that, if you haven't heard it. Most of their music is pretty dark, so that's the only one by them I really like... Though it is dark, too. Also, not everyone likes the main singer's voice. I played it for some friends, and one of them got all scared. XD I don't always like traditionally pleasant sounding music, though nothing too hard. Currently, I have to listen to Zen's theme on a regular basis. XD You may not like it, but the chorus sounds like traditional Chinese music to me, and I just like it in general. If you want to see some of my reccomendations, go check Lalainee's talkpage. Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 22:49, December 2, 2010 (UTC)

Hey, Sunshine sweetie. Thought I'd drop by for a second. To start the mini-convo off, have you at all started on the AN fanart, not to mention find that Jessie pic you said you drew once? Sorry if I sound demanding, but I noticed that you got a lot on your plate so I may have to come by from time to time to make sure you remember.

And speaking of Toy Story, did you see TS3 (I'll give you the reason as to why I asked that after you respond to my questions.) &quot; You&#39;re 30% arrogant, 30% ignorant, and 40% idiot!&quot; &quot; Yep, she soo has a crush on me.&quot; Nickelodeon has the best lines. XD 21:09, December 4, 2010 (UTC)

You are not, either! You're not a freak, you're just... special! Anyways, the reason I asked you that was because I'm writting this fan fic about Toy Story on the Fan Fiction Wikia called Alive and I hope you get to read it soon. I at least promise it'll be done before Christmas. I will give you the link right now so that you can read the first 4 chapters I've written so far. Also, I once dressed up as Jessie for Halloween because she was my favorite character (now my favorite character is Woody, just because he's sooo loyal and brave and passionate about his friends and of course Andy.) The genre of the fic is paranormal/friendship so you might be interested.

I will also remind you this, can you please go ahead and put your name on my friends list on my user page while you put my name in your friends list? I think we'd be good friends since I've been called "special" too. &quot; You&#39;re 30% arrogant, 30% ignorant, and 40% idiot!&quot; &quot; Yep, she soo has a crush on me.&quot; Nickelodeon has the best lines. XD 00:15, December 6, 2010 (UTC)

Well, err, it's not really super fluffy like the movies were; actually it'll be quite intense like Auroral Nights, but comparing Alive to AN, it won't have a sad ending, I'll promise you that! XD &quot; You&#39;re 30% arrogant, 30% ignorant, and 40% idiot!&quot; &quot; Yep, she soo has a crush on me.&quot; Nickelodeon has the best lines. XD 00:27, December 6, 2010 (UTC)

Why, thank you very much. Hope you like the next 2, even though ch. 4 is still under construction. &quot; You&#39;re 30% arrogant, 30% ignorant, and 40% idiot!&quot; &quot; Yep, she soo has a crush on me.&quot; Nickelodeon has the best lines. XD 00:44, December 6, 2010 (UTC)

Well, trust me, I bet by the time Saturday comes around the corner, I bet I'll be finished, because I already plotted out the whole story, it's just writting and describing things that's the prob (that and editing because maybe I made a few errors in Ch. 2; I met to write saloon, not salon.). PS, I'll give you a spoiler for a future chapter: Woody becomes human! (Well, he looks a lot like his toy self, but he's grown in height and has beating organs and flowing blood inside of him.) Also, on my user page, I'm reminding you again that I too have a friends list and you can put any comment and your signature there. &quot; You&#39;re 30% arrogant, 30% ignorant, and 40% idiot!&quot; &quot; Yep, she soo has a crush on me.&quot; Nickelodeon has the best lines. XD 00:55, December 6, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, and the reason why is because the demon haunting Andy wants to kill Woody and thinks that making Woody human would help out her dastardly and insane task just to make Andy miserable. &quot; You&#39;re 30% arrogant, 30% ignorant, and 40% idiot!&quot; &quot; Yep, she soo has a crush on me.&quot; Nickelodeon has the best lines. XD 01:03, December 6, 2010 (UTC)

I am semi-familiar with Silversun Pickups. I thought the same thing, too. I thought the singer was female. I downloaded a bunch of songs, and Zen's theme wasn't at the top of my list, but I appreciate it a lot more, relistening to it (repeatedly XD). Did I ask about the latest TDSP? How presumptuous of me. XD Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 01:27, December 6, 2010 (UTC)

That's what happens (in regard to forgetting, after awhile). Yeah, after you mentioned how calm it was, or whatever, it reminded me of Enya, with some more modern-ness. IDK if you read or watched Pretear, but I got a volume of the mange in the mail today. 8D Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 20:53, December 6, 2010 (UTC)

So today I was at the water fountain, and my friend shoved me. I started choking a little cause I gasped when he pushed me.

Sorry about Kendall. :( Anyway, it's a retelling of Snow White as magical girl/reverse harem. XD It was created by the director of some of my favorite anime (Sailor Moon, Princess Tutu, and Aria). I haven't watched the anime, though. I started it, but didn't like it, but loved the manga. XD Back to TD:TAS, mind making a little pic of Brent and Ophelia with Ophelia stealing his bucket?

I thought you might do Eduardo in a kitteh suit last challenge. XD I always want to read Magic Knight Rayearth, but am usually disappointed by CLAMP (that was by CLAMP, right?). I like Kobato., though. I like the manga better than the anime, as I can imagine Ioryogi's voice however I want. I'll have to check Meruki-chan in Wonderland...

Paging my consultant
Hi, Sunshine, here's another chance for you to play Creative Consultant. I have a question regarding pixie biology. I need to know, or we need to determine, the pixie race's normal gestation period. (I'll leave to your imagination the reason why I need to know this.) Since pixies are smaller than humans, and this is the sort of thing that tends to vary directly with size, I'm guessing that gestation for Homo Pixiens would be shorter than the 39 weeks that is standard for Homo Sapiens. Actually, come to mention it, I'm also assuming that pixies bear live young in the first place. (I suppose they could be egg layers. If so, maybe their eggs, or egg cases, look like ravioli squares, but I digress.) I know that Sunshine and Co. used photographs and microwave ovens to build their clan, but I'm guessing that this is not the normal procedure in her homeland.

On a related note, I think The Land of Ravioli needs a proper name, given the possibility that Izzy may mention it. For example, the suffixes -ia and -stan both mean "-land" or "Land of", so "The Land of Ravioli" could be rendered as either "Raviolia" or "Raviolistan". (There are undoubtedly other "land of " suffixes and/or prefixes, but those are the two that I know.) Personally, I like "Raviolia". It seems rather a pretty name, befitting the presumably delicate physiology of its inhabitants. For the same reason, the thought occurs that Izzy might use that name without regard to what the place is actually called.

On an unrelated note, would you care to put yourself on my Friends list, since I'm on yours? As matters stand now, you could be #20--nice, round number. I would assume that the fact you haven't graced my List before now was a simple oversight, since it's pretty obvious that we regard ourselves as friends, but it's not just a formality. I actually use my Friends list from time to time, because sometimes it's the easiest way to get to people's talk pages. Gideoncrawle I have a song to sing, O!  Sing me your song, O!  A wandering minstrel, I-- 05:15, December 8, 2010 (UTC)

Poor guy. XD They weren't really based on anyone. My mentality for them was draw them pretty. XD For Carl, I had written in TDSP for him to have brown hair. I might have done something else if I didn't write that, but I didn't feel like changing it. I just went to my local bookstore and pre-ordered Yotsuba 9 (yay). It comes out sometime in December. I also now have the whole series of Very! Very! Sweet, now to get to reading it. Sprinklemist Cyan is the new green. 22:32, December 8, 2010 (UTC)

So, pixies don't go swimming in the tomato sauce surf, eh? It doesn't surprise me that I asked about some things that you hadn't considered, despite the high level of detail in the pixie's backstory. If there's one thing you've learned about me these last ten months, it's that I see the world a little differently. Also, as I'm sure you have likewise gleaned from my writing, I have a logical mind, detail-oriented and valuing internal consistency.

Regarding your description of the Raviolian environment, I'll carry this whimsy one step further. With tomato sauce seas, garlic butter rivers, and so forth (and volcanoes belching ultra-spicy marinara, perhaps) the thought occurs that certain cheeses, seasonings, etc. might actually be mined products subject to depletion. Imagine R&D to devise renewable sources for the purpose of reducing Raviolia's dangerous dependence on imported basil--dangerous because most of the known reserves are located in places like Pennestan that are known for political instability.

On a related note, do you have a ravioli recipe that you're particularly fond of, that I should consider for the cooking challenge? (That's where the original Sunshine reference will be.) I have a (vegetarian) recipe in mind, but if you'd like to offer a suggestion, I will give it all the consideration it is due.

Speaking of LTDI, I just finished writing what will almost certainly be the most intense action scene in the entire story. It's based on a scene from a children's novel. (At least, that's how it's sometimes described, although some of the language is pretty flowery for young kids.) I told you my mind works a little differently.

On a completely unrelated note, I saw in Nalyd's blog post and ensuing discussion that you will presently be taking applications for TWE season 3. I don't suppose you have an opening for the third-grade teacher... Gideoncrawle  I have a song to sing, O!  Sing me your song, O!  A wandering minstrel, I-- 05:32, December 10, 2010 (UTC)

Oh, sorry 'bout that. Well, of course in that picture was Andy from Toy Story, but the other guy was a kid named Andy from the horror film Child's Play. Y'know, the story, bout the doll Chucky who wants to kill his owner. That was the joke that they noticed their toys were moving and while Andy Davis thought that Woody moving was cool, Andy Baracly thought that Chucky moving was scary. &quot; You&#39;re 30% arrogant, 30% ignorant, and 40% idiot!&quot; &quot; Yep, she soo has a crush on me.&quot; Nickelodeon has the best lines.

Honestly, when I first saw it on dA I was jumping and laughing. I knew I wasn't the only one who noticed both kids in both movies were named Andy. XDD Okay, since you knew it was a Child's Play-Toy Story crossover, lemme ask now, if there was a Chucky vs Woody, who do you want to win (I'd root for Woody foreva' and always! :D) &quot; You&#39;re 30% arrogant, 30% ignorant, and 40% idiot!&quot; &quot; Yep, she soo has a crush on me.&quot; Nickelodeon has the best lines.

XD 18:14, December 12, 2010 (UTC)

Ha, thank you. Sorry it took me sooooo long respond (I got busy watching a California Gurls parody by Key of Awesome. I feel so weird XDD), but thanks for the answer. The reason I asked was because, well, before I became an IP that leaped into the Wikia World, I browsed the place a lot and was honestly a little afraid to talk to Nalyd because his user page said stuff like he threw his friends down a hole and, well, I dunno the rest. Then of course, I saw the fan art of you and Nalyd and... he looked a lot happier than what he sounded like. The only time I talked to him was when I curiously asked if he supported NoahxCody, which he joked that he did. Then the other time was when I remembered that October 2nd was the two-year anniversiry of when he joined the Total Drama Wiki and wished him a happy anniversiry.

Well that's good, because I was going to ask him if he's seen the Toy STory trilogy so that I can let him read Alive also. I really apologize if it seems like I'm asking everyone on Earth that question, but on Christmas Day, I'll be putting up the link to the finished product of Alive (I really want to finish Alive before Christmas, at least.) and I want at least most of the users I know to be interested. Since I didn't know much about him, I thought that since he thinks of you as your best cyberfriend, I figured that you would know a lot more about him than me. &quot; You&#39;re 30% arrogant, 30% ignorant, and 40% idiot!&quot; &quot; Yep, she soo has a crush on me.&quot; Nickelodeon has the best lines.

Hi!

Just wanted to touch base, to see how your Legacy artwork is coming. Do you still expect to be able to make our target window? On an unrelated note, I'll let you in on a little secret. Do you remember when I told you that you and my wife strike me as kindred spirits, and that you would probably get on well for that reason? Well, it turns out that we may have a chance to find out. The other day, quite without warning, my DW told me that she is considering coming onto the wiki--as a registered user, no less. (If she does, that would bump Sprink down to #3 on the age list.)

Joint blog posts
I came across your "Wikia Carol" story. I haven't had a chance to read it yet, but I presume that's what you were so busy with the last week. In any case, you haven't really missed our target window in any meaningful way. Any time this weekend is fine with me. If you can't make that for any reason, I have a specific fallback date in mind--8 February, which is Legacy's (and, not coincidentally, my) anniversary date.

As for specific timing, a "midnight bell" post has a certain appeal, but also presents significant coordination problems, since the wiki community spans multiple time zones. (I'm in the Mountain time zone, since I live in the Denver area. I'm guessing that you're probably not.) A more practical concern, though, is that "midnight" would probably be a low-traffic period; and if somebody comes in bright and early on New Year's morning and happens to edit a lot of character pages, our posts could quickly fall off the first page of the Activity Feed, which is where people are most likely to "notice" things. Indeed, the main reason I suggested this week in the first place was that I figured it would likely be a high-traffic period, what with most of the kids out of school.

I suggest we post on Saturday afternoon or evening, if you're ready. (With this timing, we might have the year's first blog posts anyway.) You should post first, since I can't know much in advance when you'll be ready, whereas I'll be ready on a proverbial moment's notice. Then, once both our posts are up, we can edit them to link to each other. In any case, I'm guessing that your drawing would be a strong FI candidate, given your artistic talent and the story's popularity, so we'll want to get it up early in the month.

I'm also planning to post my regularly scheduled LTDI preview this weekend, but I would prefer to make the Legacy post before the LTDI post, so I can use the latter to advertise the former. (Both posts will fit the "renewal" theme of Saturday's date.) Also, once our posts are up, I'll advertise them on Legacy's talk page.

One more thing: I have a pretty good idea what your answer's going to be, but you know that I do these things by the book. I presume you wouldn't dream of objecting if I were to put your artwork (with proper credit) on Legacy's story page? Gideoncrawle I have a song to sing, O!  Sing me your song, O!  A wandering minstrel, I-- 23:13, December 31, 2010 (UTC)

Take whatever time you need to do it properly. It sounds like you've put a lot of work into it, so it wouldn't do to rush the final steps just to meet an arbitrary deadline. Gideoncrawle I have a song to sing, O!  Sing me your song, O!  A wandering minstrel, I-- 05:20, January 1, 2011 (UTC)

Since you weren't ready to do our joint blog posts on New Year's weekend (and I did, after all, tell you to take whatever time you needed to finish your fanart properly), we'll do it on Legacy's anniversary date (8 February). That will surely be more than enough time for you to finish, even with everything else on your plate. Please keep in mind, though, that this is a "drop dead date" as we say in the business world, i.e. you MUST be ready by then if we are going to do this together. By the bye, I went ahead and posted my New Year's LTDI preview. Gideoncrawle I have a song to sing, O!  Sing me your song, O!  A wandering minstrel, I-- 06:01, January 4, 2011 (UTC)

In retrospect, perhaps it was for the best that I didn't put the "lost" Legacy chapter and the LTDI preview so close together. If you haven't seen it, the LTDI preview is a Sadie scene, and Sadie also appears in the abandoned Legacy chapter. Given that she's probably the least-used camper in all of TDI fanficdom, having both of those scenes together might have been more Sadie than people are ready for. (P.S.: Edit #2500!) Gideoncrawle  I have a song to sing, O!  Sing me your song, O!  A wandering minstrel, I-- 05:47, January 7, 2011 (UTC)

I have been informed that Mr. Crawle (as the kids would presumably know him) won't be appearing in TWE this season, but might appear in a future season (presumably TWHS). I actually had an idea for a Sunshine chapter that would have involved Mr. Crawle, but it would have had to be a TWE chapter. I can't see high schoolers having the innocence needed to make the story work (assuming that it's even compatible with the relevant characters' backstories--something I'm not certain of), so I offer the story premise here for your amusement:

After seeing her current and former teachers together, Sunshine announces to her friends that Mr. Crawle and Ms. McLean are dating. The gang is skeptical, and tells Sunshine that they'll need more evidence than the fact that Sunshine saw Crawle and McLean having coffee together in the Teachers' Lounge. Unfortunately, someone makes the mistake of using those exact words (i.e. "need more evidence") so Sunshine begins stalking the unsuspecting educators (perhaps drafting one or two of her friends to help) in the hope of catching them in an unambiguously romantic situation. Does she succeed, having guessed the truth by accident? Or is this a fool's errand, because Mr. Crawle and Ms. McLean are nothing more than colleagues who happen to get along reasonably well? Only the writers know for sure. Gideoncrawle I have a song to sing, O!  Sing me your song, O!  A wandering minstrel, I-- 20:52, January 15, 2011 (UTC)

A technical tidbit: I don't think "wiki" and "wikia" are interchangeable. My understanding is that "wiki" is singular and "wikia" is plural. That's why the company that supports these sites calls itself "WIkia". Gideoncrawle I have a song to sing, O!  Sing me your song, O!  A wandering minstrel, I-- 04:45, January 20, 2011 (UTC)

I have a question for my creative consultant: based on how you envision Christin, is there a particular type of tea that you think she would (or should) favor? This is relevant to her LTDI scene. Speaking of LTDI, my updated plans for the Pasti clan call for Sunshine and Ravi to "appear" and for Sunny D to be mentioned.

On an unrelated note, the "lost" Legacy proto-chapter goes up a week from today. Do you expect to be ready? Gideoncrawle I have a song to sing, O!  Sing me your song, O!  A wandering minstrel, I-- 01:17, February 2, 2011 (UTC)

Actually, I was planning to post on Tuesday, because that's Legacy's anniversary date. Besides, I've already told some people to expect it then; although I could move it up if, for any reason, you didn't think you would be able to post on Tuesday. In any case, I think I'll have you post your part first. Since that's a workday for me, and I usually can't post to the wiki from my office computer, I expect to post my part in the evening, probably between 6 p.m. and 7 p.m. Mountain Time. (I live in the Denver area, as I have mentioned elsewhere.)

Reddy has mentioned that he is planning something (or perhaps multiple somethings) for my wikiversary. I don't know what he's planning, but certain references suggest that he might have a Legacy fanart of his own. (No disrespect intended to Reddy, but I'm guessing that it wouldn't be as worshipping-on-our-knees awesome as yours.) If he does, we might end up turning the 8th into a proper wiki holiday. Maybe we could call it "Legacy Day".

Because I have my user anniverary in addition to "Legacy Day", I debated whether to include the lost chapter as part of my anniversary post. I eventually decided to keep them as separate posts, largely because both will be fairly long (by blog standards) on their own. Gideoncrawle I have a song to sing, O!  Sing me your song, O!

Joint blog posts redux
How about linking to my Legacy blog post from yours, since your post makes an explicit reference to it? That would make it easier for Legacy fans to get to. My post has linked to yours from the beginning, since I had the advantage of knowing the title of your post when I made mine. As a bonus, adding the link would get your post mentioned on the Activity Feed again. (That's called "brand management".) Gideoncrawle  I have a song to sing, O!  Sing me your song, O!

I was on Crystal's talk page, and I'm glad to hear that you're going to support her for FU. Not that I have anything against Toad, mind you--quite the contrary, since he's been one of TDI-G&amp;S' most reliable supporters for FS--but I've been Crystal's patron pretty much since Day 1, so her candidacy is more personal to me. On a related note, since you mentioned that you don't check out the Feature ballots regularly (a lot of people have probably gotten out of the habit, which is why voter turnout has been declining) I have my "usual suspects" on the FS ballot. That wouldn't normally merit comment, but Courtney and the Violin of Despair has its best chance yet to actually win--it's never had the lead this late in the month before, although its lead is small. I know you like CatVoD and, more importantly, have supported it for FS before. Besides, I know that at least one other wikian has gotten you a kiss from Duncan before, but how many others have actually enabled you to spend a night with him?

Thanks for supporting my stories on the FS ballot. The vote for TDI-G&S was a nice bonus. On a peripherally related note, I responded to your comment on my Valentine's Day blog. I mention that here because the wiki's e-mail notification of changes/new comments has been sketchy for several days now (and, for some reason, blogs we comment on don't automatically go onto our Followed Pages listing anymore).

Yes, I think you were probably mistaken. I'm not certain, mind you, but that's my current take on the matter.

Thank you! I knew it wasn't perfect (and I apologize if I made you cry some rainbow tears and such), but I'm glad I didn't fail either. For me, it was hard getting into Rapunzel's thoughts since I couldn't really depict her once-happy and carefree thoughts and turn them into macabric suicidal thoughts. Sorry 'bout that.

Yeah, I figured. XD Barbie... eat your heart out.♥

Haha, I barely remember those volumes (except with the light). I do remember the teddy bear landing on its feet. XD It reminded me of an episode of Zeke and Luther where Zeke dropped a banana and it landed upright, and he called everyone to come look at it, and it had fallen by the time they got there so they looked at him like o_O. Then he mounted it on a plaque. XD

Purple Hat Lady o' Doom... That is quite interesting. I am kind of sorry that I made you afraid of her, though. You probably would have never noticed her if it wasn't for me. XD

I'm glad you liked the ending to TDSP. I planned to make TDTAS's finale more heartwarming, but couldn't since the ending I had in mind was similar to the TDSP one (though the whole betrayal thing was still there). I'm kind of surprised you love Bubba so much, as he wasn't so popular after the second chapter. XD Glad you like it, though.

Oh, that would be so awesome. I love me some sunny fanart *tries not to bring up Eduardo in the kitty suit XD Oh I failed TT_TT*. I also found the banana thing amusing, and am the only one I know that likes Zeke and Luther. I tend to appreciate the extremely >_> humor in it. XD Like the one where Zeke asks for a password when the security guard/old lady is approaching and Luther suggests 'Red hot monkey butt' and Zeke suggest just 'hot monkey butt' and Luther says 'Now that's just weird.' XD Then (in a crowded room) Luther shouts Red hot monkey butt randomly. XD I can also amuse myself for hours doing mundane things. I used to twirl my sister's necklaces without realizing.

I noticed your comment that you can't believe people are still commenting on your "no life" blog post. Well, I've noticed a certain phenomenon on that point. Although most old blog posts get very little traffic (excepting those that continue to be updated and/or promoted, such as my LAL-G&S playlist and various people's character ranking blogs) occasionally a new user will stumble upon an old post and comment on it. Depending on the blog post's subject matter, that can sometimes trigger a burst of new comments. Speaking of your "no life" blog post, it was there that I dropped the first hints about the steamy Duncshine scene I was planning for LTDI. I told you to trust me, and you clearly didn't regret it. (And, of course, now you understand why I needed to know certain things about pixie biology.) Gideoncrawle  I have a song to sing, O!  Sing me your song, O!  A wandering minstrel, I-- 04:14, April 12, 2011 (UTC)

Yes, now that you've made the connection, you see that you have yet another reason (as if you needed another) to look forward to LTDI--your fondest ambition is going to be fulfilled. (Aren't I just sickeningly good to you? Granted, it's nothing compared to what I did for Gigi, but still...) As for LTDI's production schedule, progress was disappointing for a while, with only about 10k words from New Year's to about the end of March; although I did have a burst of productivity during the last couple of weekends, adding perhaps another 7-8k words. (Most notably, I got a lot done on "Brunch of Disgustingness", or, as I am calling it, "The Tale of Disordered Eating".)

There were several reasons for the protracted lull: my sports photography, my income taxes (an iconic burden of adulthood) and a couple of projects I undertook for fellow wikians. As you probably know, I proofread chapter 18 of LAL for Gigi, and you know how thorough I am. I did far more than simply check for spelling/grammar errors--I took the task as an opportunity to teach, so I not only suggested many revisions, I also explained in detail my reasoning behind them. (In addition to helping her fix a couple of plot holes, I suggested ways to improve phrasing and word choice whilst taking care to leave the essential character of her writing style intact. After all, LAL is her story, not mine.) Anyway, because my critique was so detailed, it took me 3 weeks to proof her chapter, writing 7300 words of commentary for 5300 words of story. Naturally, I did all this as gently as possible, knowing how fragile her ego can be. I'm now proofing chapter 2 of TDIRM's story, Winds of Change. This is taking even longer, because the WoC chapter is longer than the LAL chapter.

Within a couple of weeks, I hope to get back to LTDI in earnest. I currently have ~65k words, plus notes totalling 2-3k words (I like to "show my work", as you know, so the notes/trivia section will be extensive) but I expect the finished story to be at least 200k words, so I have a long way to go. When I said "summer", I meant "late summer", so don't look for it to launch before the next school year starts, if then. I have decided that I won't be able to lauch LTDI in a timely manner if I just work on it during my bus commutes, as I have mostly done in the past; so when my taxes and my proofing of the WoC chapter are done, I intend to really buckle down.

Umm, I have two questions to ask (just two, I pixie promise!). I'm planning on writing a Toy Story 3 one-shot which isn't like an alternate ending; I'd cry throughout the whole thing! It's actually suppose to be Woody's thoughts after Andy leaves and how he'll know he'll get over it eventually (yes, it's first-person in his perspective). Would you read that when I'm done?

Here's question #2: I'm planning on writing a Black Swan fanfic and if you don't mind looking up the plot of Black Swan on Wikipedia, then you'll understand it better. Anyways, this story is also first-person, but in Lily's perspective. Okay, Nina is dead (suicide) and Lily has to dance the Swan Queen for the rest of the season. However, Lily begins to realize Nina's perfectionist behavior and is trying to get over her own past, but when she tries to let go, she goes through the same trouble Nina did: hallucinations. Would you read that, too? Barbie... eat your heart out.♥ 11:47, April 14, 2011 (UTC)

This is getting weird. XD I'm sure that she has some reason to be in the same neighborhood as you, or perhaps you live in a small community. Either that, or you have a stalker. <font color="Green">Sprinklemist <font color="Orange">hasn't changed his signature in a long time. 18:32, April 18, 2011 (UTC)

Well, I hope that when I'm done, you'll like them. I mean, the Toy Story one-shot is just Woody's thoughts after Andy leaves and the Black Swan story is just a sequel to the movie.

Yes, the microwave story served its purpose, by protecting our favorite pixie's reputation back in the days when out-of-wedlock births carried a social stigma; but now that such things are more widely accepted, the truth of Sunny D's origin can be revealed at last! (Indeed, you may recall that, a couple of months ago, I said that I was planning to mention Sunny D in LTDI.) As for your artwork, I'm looking forward to your magnum opus, although I haven't read most of Sprink's stories.

As for the artwork you did for Legacy, I'd say that "relentlessly textured" is a pretty fair description, and that was what impressed me most about it. I didn't consider it hugely complex (which is not to take anything away from it--we may simply have different definitions of "complex") but I would certainly describe it as exquisitely detailed. The style you chose for the table (a small table with a tablecloth) makes the setting look more like a restaurant than a derelict summer camp, but I'm assuming that was just artistic license on your part. You previously mentioned having reread the story to get the details of the scene, so I doubt you would have missed something like that by accident. Likewise, I assume that the rose-the-size-of-a-peony was so people could actually see the level of detail you put into it. All in all, I'm flattered that my story inspired you to put that much effort into your artwork.

By the by, have you been to the Legacy page since you unveiled your artwork? As I suggested I might, the story page now displays your artwork as a frontispiece. I thought it deserved a large-format display to show off all that detail.

When LTDI finally launches, I'm going to ask if someone (or, more likely, multiple someones) might see fit to submit illustrations for it. In your case, I have two scenes that I think you'll want to illustrate if you can find time to do so. One, obviously, is the Duncshine scene. The other is a scene that I was originally going to put in the paintball deer hunt, but which I have since moved to the hide-and-seek challenge. That scene shows Duncan's softer side so nicely that it will probably turn you into a puddle of fangirl goo. Gideoncrawle I have a song to sing, O!  Sing me your song, O!

Hello, I was wondering if you could add my story, Just A Game, to the recently started stories tab? ''Just A Game is a TDI reimagining based on the social experiment, "The Third Wave",' 'that includes morphed relationships, alliances, and even personalities. ''

Thanks in advance! (By the way, I love Sunshine in Summer!) I don't suffer from insanity. I enjoy every minute of it. 00:26, May 31, 2011 (UTC)

Hey Sunny, where have you been? I WANTZ MOAR EX!!! XD I figured you'd like to know that WoC Two is up and WoC Three is almost ready for editing. Also, in the near future, I really would love for you to do some fanart for WoC. I draw it as well but I'm... not so good at that.

So yesterday I spent hours on the wiki, more than I have in months. And I had a dream you came back, but your username was "SunshineRV" and everyone was like "IT'S A FAKE ACCOUNT" and then today I was looking at pics we made and our convos. And now you're actually back. o.o Like I'm not even kidding, I JUST had a dream this happened. xD -- Nalyd Renrut - Legendary Snipe! Master of epic pwnage 19:13, January 16, 2012 (UTC)

That story is classic. xD Wow, I'm really happy you're back! When Reddy gave me the link to your blog my friend called me on the phone and I was like "HEY SUP I GOTTA GO BYE" and hung up. xD Wow, this is exciting! :D Me and Chimmy are freaking out about this on chatango! So I don't really know what to say. xD Um. Hi! Welcome back! Hope you haven't fallen down lately (I think it was you who told me stories about falling down stairs in school and if it wasn't you then this sounds really stupid. Even if it wasn't you, hope you haven't fallen down lately! xD) EEE! You're back! :D -- Nalyd Renrut - Legendary Snipe! Master of epic pwnage 19:26, January 16, 2012 (UTC)

Hey so the Camps wiki's third anniversary is coming up and it's been kinda lame there lately (almost nobody edits there anymore) so I wanted to do a special 3rd anniversary camp. Do you think you're gonna be active for a while? If not it's okay but if you will be I'd really like to give you a guaranteed spot. xD -- Nalyd Renrut - Legendary Snipe! Master of epic pwnage 19:34, January 16, 2012 (UTC)

Like Nalyd, I was just thinking of you, after posting a pic of Tsuyoshi in his bunny suit as part of the background of my user page. XD With the Light finished after you left, so I finished that series. It's my favorite, ever. :3 I also started reading one called Oresama Teacher that I like. Also, A Zoo In Winter is one I read (which is awesome, despite having a detailed naked woman in it. XD It was part of an art class, though, so I didn't mind it so much). And I watched Tiger & Bunny and loved it.

I have a friend that's into Bakuman. I tried it, but it's just not for me. A Zoo in Winter is actually about the same subject as Bakuman, ironically. However, A Zoo in Winter is far more realistic in its approach. It's about a young man in the 1960s and how he is introduced to the manga world. <font color="Green">Sprinklemist <font color="Orange">hasn't changed his signature in a long time. 19:57, January 16, 2012 (UTC)

I just pictured Duncan tied up with Sunshine glaring at him and screaming "SING IT!!!" and he reluctantly sings "You are my Sunshine... My only Sunshine... You make me happy... When skies... are... gray..." And she laughs maniacally. xD IDK why. But now this song will make me think of Sunshine and Duncan. xD -- Nalyd Renrut - Legendary Snipe!

Was the commercial like that? (I should go into a career in advertising) -- Nalyd Renrut - Legendary Snipe! Master of epic pwnage 20:19, January 16, 2012 (UTC)

In 20 years you and me will start an advertising company where we come up with commercials like this. xD Meet me at that diner down the street from Jerry's Bait Shop (you know the place) in 20 years.

You're Back!! :D
I've been SO looking forward to meeting you!! :D Welcome back, at last!! I'd really like to be on your friends list, please, and I'd LOVE for you to add yourself to mine, if you'd like. :) I've been here since the end of August and love to go on Chat. I broke up several squabbles on Chatango, so now I'm a Chat Mod, too.

Gid adores you, and from everything I know about you you're a great friend that I just haven't met before now. :) One time I was on Chat and felt like eating a bowl of ravioli for dinner, so I when I got back to the computer, I wrote, "Back. With a bowl of RAVIOLI." xDD Someone chatted back, "I KNEW you were Sunshine! Gideon married Sunshine and now she's Mrs. Gideon! :D" We all laughed about that for a bit, and talked about how much we missed you. Oh, and I love your name for me: "Lady Gideon." That makes me sound all regal. :)

I totally am in AWE of your picture for Gideon's Legacy. That is truly amazing! Well, I'm going to read your blog now, and I'll probably say some more here when I'm done. So anywayz, Welcome Back!! :D JustLittleOlMe Lil   Jay JLOM   Mrs. Gideon  21:19, January 16, 2012 (UTC)

From everything I know about you, we are twin kindred spirits, only 3 decades apart. xD I've heard lovely things about you from Gideon, and from some of your posts from before you left. It turns out Gideon and TAU are kindred spirits, too, with a similar age gap, so in 30 years or so, TAU might want to rename himself Gideon 2.0.

On your return blog, you mentioned that you've started "digging into" LTDI. I thought I'd mention a few of tidbits pertaining to that, in case you haven't gotten far enough to notice them for yourself. First, because the chapters have been so long (10-12K words each), I've included subheadings for the benefit of readers who prefer smaller bites. Second, I have polls up for each chapter on the talk page, most pertaining to that chapter's cliffhanger. I can't guarantee that all the future chapters will have polls, but it's likely that most of them will, given that having a cliffhanger for every chapter lends itself well to polls. (On a related note, I've been getting some fairly detailed comments and I've responded to most of them, so that's a way to get a "behind the scenes" look.) Third, the Winner Guessing and Paternity Guessing still have a few open spots, and all the guessing games except for F3 have poll options so people can reveal what they really think if their first choice is taken. Likewise, the F3 guessing gives bonus points if you get the three in order, so that's another way to get a winner guess on record. I provided the polls and the F3 bonus for the benefit of readers who like to, you know, actually get into a story before guessing how it's going to end. In any case, I eagerly await your feedback. I'm sure you'll have something to say, for good or ill, about my handling of Sunshine. Gideoncrawle I have a song to sing, O!  Sing me your song, O!
