Update From The Realm: Sporking Information

[zelda_queen]

Hello everyone, just a few brief announcements, regarding how things will be going in the Realm.

First of all, I am going to be posting sporkings on das_sporking. I'm not sure exactly when I'll start, but I suspect that it will be at some point shortly after I finish that wretched Ghosts of the Abyss. When I begin however, I'm going to do things here a little differently. For the foreseeable future, all sporkings of fanfiction will be posted only atdas_sporking. I will have links here leading to them, but the sporkings themselves will be over there. I would like to ask everyone to please be patient for this transition, as this will be the first time that I've posted in any place on LiveJournal besides the Realm. If I randomly post a fanfiction sporking here instead of at the community it's not because it's special, it's because I'm an idiot. Yeah.

At the Realm, I will continue to post my recappings of published works, as well as anything that would fall in the Other Box (memes, sporked articles, etc). The only published work I'm planning on posting to das_sporking is the City of Bones group sporking, since a lot of you guys are also members of that community and all.

Which leads nicely to our next announcement - I would like to remind everyone involved in the group sporking that if they have not handed in their sporking or given me some sort of notification regarding when the sporking will be ready, they must do so by May 25th. If I have not received anything from you - either recap or a notification of some kind - I will assume that you are no longer interested and give your chapter to someone else!!! If you sent something and you didn't get some sort of reply from me, please send it again to make sure I get it. Remember, a PM, a comment, an e-mail, any of that is fine.

Finally, I know everyone has busy lives. If you have a lot of stuff going on and you honestly don't think you can get the recap in, it's perfectly fine. Don't worry about it. Do, however, let me know, so that I'll know to pass it to someone else.

That's about it. If anyone has any questions about how many recaps have been turned in, or who is doing what chapter, or if the recapping you sent in got through alright, you can check here for that. Besides that though, have a lot of fun! Woot!

I can't wait for the City of Bones recap. Sucks it's not going to be on here but meh. I'm interested to see what everyone else had to say for the story. I kind of ranted a lot o.o.

Man, I was reading the Amazon reviews on this stupid this and DEAR GOD the negative ones are few and far between. I was like 'Wtf, people? o.O' This is what I get for only doing original work. *hmph* (Not that I have anything against fanfiction, I just find it very irritating that she got famous for writing a HP fanfic instead of her own merit.)

Still working on Chapter Nine! Gah, I'm terrible XD.

I'm writing up my ch 20 recap right now! I should be able to finish it up and send it over within the next six hours.

My chapter, I think, is actually the best of the lot. >.> I couldn't really find much grievance with it; a lot of my peeves from the previous chapters aren't there, mainly because there's a lot of action, and, of course, a noticeable lack of Jace.

... I'm not sure that's a good thing or a bad thing. :p

Hmmmmm~ I don't own City of Bones. If I did I would have offered up my services for taking the place of someone if they weren't able too finish theirs, but I'd probably only be able to do one or two of the chapters between 1-10; I'm a fast reader, but would probably still take awhile if I was supposed to do a later chapter.

I wish I could have helped... :)

In hindsight; I probably should have offered earlier huh?

Still I'm looking forward to it; like I do all sporks!

Well it's the 26 so if there is anything I can help with I'll be happy to :)

It hurts to read this...

Ouch~ when this book isn't being bland the characters are just unbearable.
I just started and am only on the fifth chapter but I already noticed-
Clary is an annoying dumbass.
Jace is an smug asshole.

AND THEY ARE OBVIOUSLY THE LEADS!

Simon seems kind of fun; when compared to everyone else I've seen thus far, but somehow I doubt his presence will save the book.

Also how can her mother hate myths and fairy tales, manga, and DISNEY when she's supposed to be all artistic. There should at least be some respect for those things - I don't care about what dumbass excuse the story comes up with: that's like being a dentist who rejects toothpaste, floss, and teeth.
