Patient Zero Group: Advanced Members Posts: 4,279 Member No.: 37,947 Joined: Oct 1st 2011 Location: Update Profile | Yup, stars usually denote some kind of rating so I think it would be better if we didn't do that... My mistake about bringing that idea up. Although I really do want to know how long something is before I read it. Whenever I pick up something to read, I'm compelled to finish it as fast as possible, or risk totally forgetting about where I left off next time I pick it up to read. With Dreaming of Akina, I read the first 10 chapters in a few hours then I saw that there 81 chapters. I wanted to finish it all as fast as possible so I just kept reading. I didn't go to sleep that night. I believe that it would really benefit others if they knew how long the story is, you know what I mean? |

I'm surprised my presence can get someone wanting to write stuff again, but thanks And I'm also willing to proofread for you. And my inbox still has a little room left before I have to start deleting stuff so PM me whenever. | ||

Is that really all that we have to do? PM people with the chapters? Man! Why didn't anyone tell me this before? I have to proof read all the chapters myself before I post them up! This would make things so much easier! Now who want's to beta read for me? Better yet, who wants to be a character in my story?!** **Prerequisite: Read my story then PM me with a character proposition, from there we can plan it out! | ||

Group: Advanced Members Posts: 3,921 Member No.: 20,929 Joined: Oct 14th 2006 Location: Some place in South-East Asia | Since you've sent a chapter my way before, I thought you already knew about this. Anyway, I can proofread your story too. Also, I decided to try out putting the chapter counts under the fic titles, so now you'll have advance warning before you start up Sanae's Programmed Lives and all its sequels. I wish there was an easier method for counting some of those I feel I might have messed up somewhere too (going to have to recheck thx's ones later on). I also saw that two complete fics were mistakenly tagged as incomplete. That's been fixed now. Feel free to make any further suggestions. By the way. If you're reading this Drifter: could you tell me how many "Chapter X-0x"s there are in On the Unbeaten Path alongside the main chapters (including "X-0x Part x"s)? It'll help me come up with a more accurate chapter count. |

Patient Zero Group: Advanced Members Posts: 4,279 Member No.: 37,947 Joined: Oct 1st 2011 Location: Update Profile | I didn't want to bother you with my insanely long chapters anymore! Anyhow, I rather like proofreading the chapters I belt out myself. Unless you really want to proofread for me... But you already do that in my thread whenever I post up something. Also, thanks for putting down the number of chapters in each story. You're amazing Meteor! |

If your story is posted on fanfiction.net then make a thread for it here with the correct tag (in this case [FANFIC] will do) and either Meteor or I will add it to the listing. Good luck writing!
Outlaw-2 isn't seen around too often anymore. I say the best way of finding this out is to shoot him a PM and see what he says. | ||||

Patient Zero Group: Advanced Members Posts: 4,279 Member No.: 37,947 Joined: Oct 1st 2011 Location: Update Profile | Oh how can I resist the urge to help a fellow author in need? Since I'm online at the moment, you can hop onto our IRC channel (located conveniently at the top of the radio banner) and chat with me there. If I'm not online then you can always leave a message in my PM box and I'll get back to you within the day since I'm a dork and I usually have nothing else to do. I'm here at your service! |

Were you expecting something else? Group: Advanced Members Posts: 3,921 Member No.: 20,929 Joined: Oct 14th 2006 Location: Some place in South-East Asia | Silverwolf happened to PM me his questions some days ago. I answered them, but ended up with a question of my own in the process. His fic happens to be a WM fanfic (which has already been posted over at WME). He asked if he could post it in IDW and I answered that straight-up WM fanfics (as opposed to WM fics that cross over with Initial D) can go in Artworks and Graphics but might not be allowed in General. I just want to be sure of that last part. Is it really not okay to post a WM fic in General Discussion? Since (off the top of my head) there are already two fics in this very list that don't have much relation to Initial D besides auto-racing involving corners; and there's a whole series in General Discussion (but not on the list - with the exception of its Initial D-crossover spin-off story) that isn't an Initial D fic per se, but stays here because a mod moved it over from the Merchandise section. @HyperSonic: Nope, no one took outlaw-2's Initial D fic. And he ignored it in favour of his other racing stories, so I don't think he's going to continue it himself either. So yeah, PM him like CG2 suggested As for your other question: I'll let CG2 help you for now. I might step in as well later if I think I'm up to it. |

There is no official rule present in the guidelines that mentions this, but the idea when posting is be to as relevant to the topic, and subsequently to the forum/subforum, as possible. Since a Wangan Midnight fanfiction has nothing to do with Initial D, I would simply post it on Wangan Midnight Expressway. However, if you really want to post it here for the membership to see, then I would suggest posting it in an appropriate forum. Since this is the Initial D General section, and if there is no connection to Initial D in the fanfiction, obviously the most appropriate section would be Artworks & Graphics, as written pieces fall under its category. You might think it would be Anime & Manga, but for the reason I just mentioned, it's actually Artworks & Graphics. If fanfiction were a really prevalent thing here on IDW, we might make a "Fanfiction" subforum in Anime & Manga, but as it stands right now, this is not the case. Additionally, if there is a fanfiction that is not about Initial D, but has elements of the series in it (characters, storyline parody, crossover, etc.) then it is perfectly acceptable to be posted here. I hope that's helpful. | ||

CG2 has been very helpful, I'm waiting for any suggestion the two of you might give. I have read some of your fics and I really wanted to write my first one, if ever I'll get the hang of it, I'll try to do make something without any help. |

Patient Zero Group: Advanced Members Posts: 4,279 Member No.: 37,947 Joined: Oct 1st 2011 Location: Update Profile | I'm looking through the list of threads and the listed fanfics here, and I see a few that aren't added on the list yet and some that are outdated. Meteor, do you want to update them, or shall I leave it to you to handle it? |

Group: Advanced Members Posts: 3,921 Member No.: 20,929 Joined: Oct 14th 2006 Location: Some place in South-East Asia | A few of those fics were removed by author's request, but there could be some other fics I've simply missed to begin with. Point out those fics to me. I'll deal with them after I wake up. |

Patient Zero Group: Advanced Members Posts: 4,279 Member No.: 37,947 Joined: Oct 1st 2011 Location: Update Profile | I am also too disorganized to deal with this. Meteor, don't be so lazy! There are like 3 new stories up and an old one that isn't even listed. It shouldn't be too tough, you can do it! I believe in you! So I'll go back to studying.

Patient Zero Group: Advanced Members Posts: 4,279 Member No.: 37,947 Joined: Oct 1st 2011 Location: Update Profile | Aw I'm glad you like Fakeisuke. I got it from my sister because she was screen capping random things from the first two episodes. I wanted a screen cap of Keisuke. But instead she gave me this. I thought it was hilarious so I ended up using it. If I ever decide to change my avatar to something different, here's what we are actually talking about: Anyway, I'm not planning of getting out of my hiatus any time soon. I just recently picked up a research position with one of my professors on top of my current job and classes. Quite frankly, along with these new interviews I'm throwing out every few days; I just don't have the time to really sit down and write a full coherent chapter. Don't worry, I won't ever forget about Katsuko and everyone else. I love them too much to let them go. Maybe in December when I'm on break I might push out one or two chapters, but writing takes time. We shall see, I have a lot of ideas in my head. If I'm lucky I can sit down during Thanksgiving and write then, only time will tell. Even though I'm not actively writing at the moment, please take the time to post up a review of my story in the thread! It really helps my muse! |

Huh? The 3 newest fics posted in General Discussion are "The Muscle Drifter", "Battleground - Clash of the Speedmasters" and "A New Legend" (the one by Nicholas86); and all three of these are already in the list. I apologise if I'm being stupid here but, seriously, which 3 new fics are you talking about? I could've missed some older ones though, but since I don't know their titles, I'll search for them later and see which ones aren't in the list. Also, I see I've missed Initial G, so expect that one on the list soon. If you know any other fics I've missed, please let me know their titles, okay? P.S: Yeah. Nice avatar.
