    Ah, the Sims. The computer game that makes a pervert and a peeping tom out of all of us.

    And now I'm really confused. Seal of approval?

    Oh, no, my dear. Stamp of approval. Stamp. It's something completely different. Really.

    Seriously, maybe Oni was thinking of the old way I reviewed? Or someone else's current reviewing system? Or maybe the way the USDA reviews chickens and livestock?

    This is why I'm really glad that EAxis got with the times and realized that not everyone chases after the opposite. And with the quality of pictures I can take in the game...!

    I reiterate: I'm in college, and I can't read.

    And now I have the image of my smiling face on a gold sticker that says: "Approved by the gods of neutrality! Good quality fanfiction to feed your family!"

    Seriously, Oni, what did you mean?

    • Man, whenever I'm busy, this place gets busy. XD

    On that post Oni Raichu did, too me I think the writer is putting some effort into his/her story. I remember doing my first story I probably had a thousand grammar mistakes. He/she has a gist of telling a story but not really the showing part yet and the pacing. Yeah, pretty much how I would do a review on that story is to tell him to work more on the emotions and to look over the story and fix the story (both on grammar and other things like emotions) up to his/he ability until he's ready to post.

    And on Sims? Hadn't played too much of it because of school and work, but I saw my sister played that game and was addicted to it for quite some time. XD

    Okay, now to get my lazy butt and revise Chapters 8 and 9 of "Nothing, Everything". XD

    And I would never approve a story like that. Why? Because I'm a mean old b-witch without a care in the world, and no other color but black in my heart.

    I would tell that person who wrote that story that they should improve, and at least know how to spell a Pokemon's name right. And to make paragraphs, and spell-check, and add more, and all these other random pieces of advice that I don't give anymore because I don't review.

    And now I'm really confused. Seal of approval?

    Oh, Skunter, your links...I can't click them. :< But yeah, if your fakemon fills a role that no canon Pokemon and fulfill, then you are all right.

    I was stuck on the next sentence and I had already done one week later of n00b reviews, so I just saw your username as I was scrolling down and I was reading through one of Johto101's fan fics, which reminded me of the way Jax (as she, herself, guessed) used to do that yoke of approval on fics on PFU. I wrote it down, unaware of the controversy it would cause.

    If you don't post every three days, your thread gets closed. I've just been lazy and haven't gotten around to closing threads yet.

    So just as a note, people: If you haven't updated your fic yet, do so. Otherwise, your thread gets closed.

    I love the fact that since I don't use emoticons in my posts that much, no one knows if I'm being serious or not.

    I just choked on some blueberry nuggets.

    Right, aren't we supposed to be discussing fanfiction?

    I'll start: I was going to write something today, but I left my pencil in my other class. Now I can't write anything, so I'm going to skip my math class and organize my pr0ny pictures of my Sims.

    Like so: CAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I normally just write that "Ho-Oh screeched/cawed/cried". There's no need to actually write the sound that it makes. It's like a few good paragraphs of Pikachu talking in "Pika pika chu pi ka!" I just say that Pikachu chattered, and just kind of leave it at that.

    Well, I don't really want to give it away that it IS Ho-oh.. I want people to guess at it :).

    You can still go with what Astinus suggested, simply replacing the word "Ho-oh" with either a physical description ("a rainbow-colored bird screeched" or even just "a bird screeched") or calling it "fierce but melodious" -- or something along those lines. I would suggest playing the cry over and over again and trying to describe what you hear.

    Wait, you are joking here, right? What if there are no replies to a chapter and the next one can't be finished in three days?

    • Ah, thanks, bobandbill (btw, Astinus is a girl). Got a little scared there. I don't even start writing my next chapter until about four days after the previous one was posted/finished.

    I just died. And I'm happy for it too! Not every girl likes a guy, and not every guy likes a girl. I'm surprised that there weren't redneck hardcore church people complaining about it yet.

    And it has been proven, college makes you ability to read go down. And the ability to spell also. XD

    So, I'm guessing you also took my comment right after that post seriously in light of the one just before it? XD

    (Although I might be serious. I may or may not know that Astinus is very good.)
