I guess I'll discuss things here... And yea, this thread kinda died. Anyway, I plan on writing a Digimon Fic, based off the original Digimon 'V-Pets'. It's pretty much my own imagination because there was never a story off the V-Pets. *cough*storiesthatarearubyandsapphirenovelization*cough* It'll star 10 people (there were 5 Versions of the original V-Pet, each with 2 rookies.) So yea. Good luck with me.

Geeks own though. So it's all good.

Yess... I am the queen of teh closet geeks. <33 my pokemon xD But I'm totally lost when people start hard-core talking about their anime and all those fancy japanese words and j-pop bands... :shrug: I'm an in-between that's sort of awkward. I like... U2, Switchfoot, Matchbox Twenty, Collecive Soul, Maroon 5... nothing too exciting. :shrugagain: Average stuff, you know? Go be offended it it suits you... if you're going to run around being insecure, fine... I'm not putting down anyone. Believe me, I deal with that 'you dork' crap a lot. You just have to tease yourself sometimes, or you really won't get anywhere in life. My friends and I are all dorks. We take it as a complement. We love it ;) Quote:

And thus were the nay-sayers proven wrong. Meh, geeks, dorks, and nerds are the bomb. Personally, I think they're the most interesting people. I hang out with them. |

It's completely long, lengthy and exhausting to work on fanfic battle... (Yes I haven't quitted that yet, even though the thread is on page 2864 by now). It's hard to think of original ideas of how to make the trainers beat one another through creative manners... don't forget descriptions which lengthens everything by 10... If the number ends with a 8, then it's not infinite to begin with. It can't equal one, because you have a definite number (not an irrational number.) Really, of course your class can't think of a number like that, simply because your own restriction in the question contradicts with the answer that you are trying to look for ;p DO NOT CALL YOURSELF A D**k. ;o; Really, before you use that word. Look it up... you don't know what you are saying about yourself... |
Nerds rock. There's this nerd store downtown which I was just discovering a little while ago. It's heaven. Probably the only place in Iceland that sells animé, too. I'd have bought that Pokémon Chronicles DVD if I hadn't already watched the Raikou Special in Japanese with subtitles.

I am gonna make a Yu-Gi-Oh Fan Fic and when and if you read it. Tell me how it is!

Oh, I was using the (slightly less) insulting meaning for dork. I know where it came from, but meh, nobody who uses it nowadays has any clue anyway. |

Actually, the derivations of the word "nerd" really aren't so bad.

AH, now I see. Poor wording on the part of m-w.com... they made it sound as if 'nerd' was a derivitive of 'dork' as opposed to a synonym. I'm good now xD

(1/9)^(-1) = 9 {repeat cycle of flipping this newly acquired number to the power of negative 1 again} so what's the point of 9 to the infinite -1 times? XD Geek is the only word out of all the words which suggest the same meaning in today's context that isn't actually invented by an author. Its old meaning is long forgotton by those who use it, and the "real geeks" have no idea that they are actual geeks at all. In fact, real geeks are 95% "not a geek" because their profession as a "geek" will never give them the time to go on animeathons and crack their computer open for the pure joy of putting it back together again. I mean, why would they do that when they have to face the deadly lions everyday =D Gah social study essay on Friday ;_; I haven't even made up my mind about what to do yet... stupid democracy >>; |
Mmm, poor phrasing on my part. Not 0.9^(-1) but a zero followed by an infinite number of nines, then an eight. So not -1 times but one less than an infinite number of times, the final digit being replaced by an eight.
The main point was that it would be infinitely close to 0.9 repeating, which is 1, but not exactly the same, and would the last digit be enough to stop it from being 1 or just look pretty? |
how the f*** did this thread turn into a math debate?
|
If 0.9 with the 9 repeating is assumed to be one, then 0.9 with 9 repeating infinitey, plus a 8 at the end, will be 1. This is because since 9 is infinite, the 8 will "never" get to show up. This number is exactly the same as 0.9 with the 9 repeating. In the theory of math, those two numbers are the same, but then again that defies logic because a 8 is there and you know that the numbers are different... lol. Because of this, you get a paradox where you know the 2 numbers are different, but you can't prove it mathematically because the 8 is infinitely away after the infinite chain of 9s.
k enough math... gah as if I'm not doing enough math through killing myself with math homework on top of a part-time job teaching math for 7.5 hours a week >>; Either way, back to story telling/writing! Frosty got a question for all. In any adventure stories, does a hero/heroine appear much more nobel, brave and admirable if he or she dies at the end of the story, making it a tragedy? When you read about an adventure story where the hero/heroine lives, and compare another story where the hero/heroine dies, do you regard the heroes who suffered a tragic death more highly than the heroes who lived by the end of the story? |

Ajihad dying in Eldest was really sad and it made him look noble, only because he had an intruiging personality. He reminded me of Walsh in 24. But still, Roran was my most regarded character. |
I generally like characters more if they're dead or have at the very least almost died, actually. Either that or they kill/almost kill someone. Sadistic, aren't I?
But I'm not that much for this noble-sacrifice-death thing. I like it better if one of the heroes is actually captured and killed by the villain. It's nice if that provides other heroes with something they wouldn't otherwise have had or whatever, but I don't particularly like the hero taking on a mission knowing that they're going to die. Just a bit too noble to be real. |
well I was only asking if they just die, one way or another (noble cause vs villain's victory, whatever) ^^; I also agree that a character is immediately a lot more likable if they die or suffer in some horrible way, especially if they don't deserve it all while not wanting to suffer such a cruel fate at the same time.
Oh gosh we're evil... |
Do you guys really suggest FF Net for putting work up? <<;
|
those bas****s don't allow script... they assume they all resemble AIM conversations. On top of that, they delete everything reported without even so much as looking at the fic in question, so, in my somewhat biased opinion, no.
|
Ok <<;
Can you suggest a better place? |
Meh, I'm not very fond of the hero dying at the end of a story, because it's rarely done well. Like most other things. I don't see a problem with the main character surviving.
Personally, I like FF.net. QuickEdit is a beast, but at least you don't have to go through and edit in tags yourself. I've never had any problem with the report system, and you can get some decent concrit there. |
Haha, you can try "rebel fanfiction.net" a.k.a fictionised.net. Has anyone heard of that? They're staff went around reviewing stories to advertise their site. Of course they're Pokémon section isn't the greatest (I think a few ff.net people tried to kick it off but failed, including me), so yeah. I don't even know why I brought it up. I just thought it was funny. ._.;
