because winning fg is always better

anyways, secret santa sig tagging was TaoF's idea, and if he isn't a part of it, I don't want to do it. That's why I wanted to do something different.

If you want to be all emo and shoot every idea down, that's fine, but I am willing to bet most here would be interested in participating in some kind of contest.


It's not like I am forcing everyone in the forum to enter. Just those who want to.


So, to the rest of you, I still need ideas if you don't want the short story thing.

I'm down for whatever

Joe, Lineage II is free. You and Jake should come in.

how am I being emo in the slightest. "creative writing" / fanfics4xmas is retarded shit. Shoot every idea down? that's the only one I said anything about. So as far as I can tell we're 1 for 1, cause you dont wanna do sigs.
sigs for sigs makes sense. vetoing the idea because you think it should be fg-based, which completely doesn't make sense in a sig exchange, because you don't want to fork out fg is the most backwardass reason ever.

'n im not saying I wanna do sigs, just that overall, its a hell of a lot more accessible to everyone than acting like a faggot and writing one piece love poems or some shit.

if you're gonna do an xmas event, it oughta be a) accessible, b ) not EFFORT, and c) fun.
cuz fuck writing essays for christmas.

bought the ltd ed cd/dvd for the supercell single. dvd's the pv for My Dearest, trailer/intro to GC, and the GC op. 9:39 in length.
cant stay connected to seed, but i threw it up on MF. if anyone wants it, pm me for the link.

how was the tag thing ever fun or accessible for people who weren't graphic artists?

and one piece love poems? You seem to have this terrible misconception of what I meant when I said short story. It was ORIGINAL IDEAS...and I hadn't even fully explained the concept yet.

And the biggest thing I've been asking for is IDEAS FOR EVENTS. I offered a suggestion (the only one), you shot it down, thus you shot down every idea.

Writing would be easy because everyone in the world has a MS office or text editor, and unlike the tag thing, there isn't like 3-4 guys who just dominate it in terms of quality/etc. Anyone who has done level 1 college writing could make an interesting story.

I want FG to be involved because it's d2jsp and because it's more incentive for people to enter.

No offense to TaoF and the GD guys, but the ANIME forum should have an ANIME event/contest. Making anime sigs != anime event. Again, the roots lie in GRAPHIC DESIGN.

So FEEL FREE to tell me a good idea that isn't just "OH LETS COPY THEM BECAUSE THEY DID IT ONE TIME LIKE 3 YEARS AGO AND IT WAS KINDA COOL EVEN THOUGH 3/4 THE USERS BACK THEN WERE ALREADY GRAPHIC DESIGN ARTISTS LOLOLOL"

lol, now who's emo. i was clearly being sarcastic re:love poems. But if you're saying not fanfics at all: short stories, creative writing, whatever the fuck you want to call it - isn't anime related in the slightest, so why would you think it's any more of a viable solution than making anime-related sigs?
Hurr, they're set in japan, and we'll use JAPANESE NAMES. OMG sakurachan cuddlewuddled akirakun on the subway. the wind suddenly blew her skirt upwards, even though they were in an enclosed space. OMG DID YOU SEE THEM IM SO ASHAMED AKIRAKUN.
dear god, no. fuck that shit.

Copy them? It's what we did like 3-4 years in a row, back when people still gave a shit, anyway. It's the closest thing there is to tradition here, apart from starting arguments over nothing. What did we do last year? I don't even remember. It must've sucked, because it was totally immemorable.

It's not like the GD guys invaded or anything, they were partially the ones who helped get this subforum made, so i'm not sure why you have this total aversion to anything graphic-related. Sure some people're gonna suck at it, but it's still relevant to the section. Also, implying ppl won't also suck at writing stories?
Take a picture of dat cute girl you like. Throw some swirly shit on it. Filterwhore like a niggabitch, tadah you got a sig.
Animu's graphical ffs. So is manga!


the whole idea (of an xmas/SSE) is (lol communism) everyone who contributes gets something back. just by joining and submitting :whatever: you get something out of it.
i dont see how adding fg is incentive in this context, because it's not a competition.

'n if you make it a competition, fine fg, but we're all gonna suck at something. So it might as well be people sucking at something relevant than this bullshit gaia faggotry.

Making anime sigs == anime event.
Writing wapanese stories without pictures == http://forums.d2jsp.org/forum.php?f=266

^this is what happens when women walk out of the kitchen.

POSTING FROM THE KITCHEN. NOW WHAT, NIGGZ?

Everyone who contributes gets something back. Tell that to the guy who spends an hour on a tag who gets the giant dick scribbled on white background tag.

It's the only things close to tradition because no one ever had the balls to do anything else! Or rather, as I said before, since 60% or more of the users knew how to make tags, they just never bothered with anything else.


Well, now they are gone, and we are stuck with a lot of new faces + a few older faces who aren't GD heads.


I want to do something new, and I want fg to be involved. Unless you have an idea that isn't SS+tags.


So here we are, back at square one
