    We can cheer each other on to complete our fics in December. I'm hoping to have the first quarter of my Digimon fic done by the end of the year. There's only three chapters left to write, and I hope to get a chapter done each week.

    Wow I sometimes miss the FFL.

    Looking forward to the fics!

    And to start off my complaints about Digimon fanfiction: Why do they give Daisuke a different personality? >=C

    What a bizarre coincidence. And yeah, that school is a time-nommer.

    I've started chapter 6, but first I want to finish and post a farcical Pokemon one-shot. It's called "Giovanni Destroys the World and Everything in It," and technically I announced it in the FFL three years ago: linky. Got a good feeling about this one. Should have both done during December.

    Oh, anon. I love how you always make a reappearance here every time I decide to step back into the world of Digimon fanfiction.

    School nommed all your free time again, didn't it.

    icomeanon, that's a very good question!

    I'll run around announcing things tomorrow. I have a lot of running around to do in the morning and should have been in bed...an hour ago.

    Does Jax know that she won? xD

    Sounds good to me if it means we actually get some submissions. Maybe I'll pester some folks.

    Those were pretty close to my thoughts on Xros Wars (or "Digimon Fusion," which I actually think sounds fine for an adapted title) dub, except they were more like "Screw the anime; it sucked. And why didn't they make a story-based Digimon Adventure RPG years and years ago?"

    I'm thinking of extending the deadline for the GT. A week for writing and a week to judge. That OK?

    Did you hear that Xros Wars is being dubbed? Did you know that my first thought was "Screw the anime. I just want the Xros Wars video games to come out. And the PSP Digimon Adventure one."

    Maybe when we start getting closer to the closing date, we can panic if we don't get any posts from people telling us they submit. Maybe it's just slow right now because there's not much to discuss?

    The Competition thread looks way underposted compared to last year. Cause for concern?

    Err...yeah, sorry about that. :( They finally won it last year, so I figured it was time to give them and a judge a break.

    Moreover, I think their contesting days are probably over; at a certain point you know a group of characters well enough that it takes too much of the challenge out of fitting them to a new story based on a prompt (that was my grand multi-year SWC strategy, heh). I might write more short stories about them, but it'll be on my own time.

    I just realized that since your judging this writing competition, there won't be any new story about those three trainers. :(

    Thread noticed and discussed in.

    Writing along Digimon-wise, and now I can't decide where I want to end the chapter. On one hand, it's pretty short as-is, but on the other I'm feeling kind of like another cliff-hanger, but back on the first I don't know if two big cliff-hangers in a row is a good idea.

    Call it: Heads or tails? If you're right it's a cliffhanger. Scratch that, I made up my mind.

    I made a thread for you to discuss things in.

    Quick note: You'd be great as a judge, so I guess you volunteer here. Maybe. (I don't know. By the time judges are needed, someone else has done all this work for me.)

    I don't know a thing about OSC graphic novel adaptations, but Harrison Ford! :D It also has that kid from Hugo as Ender, which sounds like a very good casting to me.

    I see a possible lose-lose situation fandom-wise: either it's really good and you get a bunch of nouveaux-Ender fans who get confused on which elements were in the books or movie(s) (there was only one elf at Helm's Deep, you wannabe LOTR fans), or it's really not good and you have to tell everyone "Read the book! It's not bad like the movie!"

    I'd be okay with judging, if you think I qualify. I'd like to give some of the old standby judges a chance to participate for a change.
