DL Posted April 24, 2010 Report Share Posted April 24, 2010 Hmmm.... Literature has a lot of discussion threads, but no stories yet, though I did post a poem there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deustodo Posted April 24, 2010 Report Share Posted April 24, 2010 Well, I think literature will be only used for poems then, until a thread with a custom story appears. Though my Fan Fic is not really a fan-fic since it is not related to anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DL Posted April 24, 2010 Report Share Posted April 24, 2010 Your fanfic makes absolutely no sense to me. Yet I am compelled to read it. Have you posted it here so Twig can add it to the list yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deustodo Posted April 24, 2010 Report Share Posted April 24, 2010 Is not that IT doesn't make sense. The main character that doesn't make "sense". He is mad, remember, he can change his decisions 5 seconds later. And yes, I believe I had already posted it here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twig Posted April 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2010 Happy Birthday Darklink! Should we do the RP we talked about ages ago? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deustodo Posted April 25, 2010 Report Share Posted April 25, 2010 I think it would be a good idea, but I will not participate. Anyway, I forgot to post the link of my fan-fic so you can add it to the first post: http://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/thread-200028.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
--------------- Posted April 26, 2010 Report Share Posted April 26, 2010 Again, Happy Birthday Darklink Oh and, BTW, I'll post the link to my fanfic in a little bit. here is the link to my fanfic: http://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/thread-194660.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naimo Posted April 26, 2010 Report Share Posted April 26, 2010 *interjecting*Going back to page 86, when someone said that the fanfic section was full of YGO fanfics, I can offer pretty much 3 reasons as to why: 1. Forum: This is a YGO forum, people expect to write nothing but YGO fanfic. That's pretty much the norm for any forum - say if I was on a Top Gear forum, naturally I'd write nothing but Top Gear. 2. Fandom: Obviously YCM doesn't just host YGO fanfics, there are numerous Pokemon fanfics and others on there too. Pokemon fanfics work just as well here because there are Pokemon fans here. However, it doesnt work for all fandoms - say if I posted a Mock the Week fanfic to here and slashtheweek (a slash comm for Mock the Week fans on Livejournal), which side do you think I'll get more feedback from? A Mock the Week fanfic would never work here because barely anyone watches it, let alone write fanfic about it. 3. Romantic Genre: Yep, even this matters. Romantic genre - gen, het, slash and femmslash. YCM's never been particularly tolerant towards slash* and femmslash**, and no matter which Fandom you're obsessed with, slash is there in some shape and form, even if the vast majority of writers don't write slash. Almost everywhere I've been is very slash-dominated, and I bet most of them are written by females (90% of all fanfic writers are females, that's a fact). Considering how YCM's a male-dominant place though, I doubt any lads write slash, caus it really is a female thing. But anyway, my point is, because YCM doesnt tolerate slash and femmslash, it does sort of drive away some writers, thusly shrinking the fanfics to being horribly cliched stories about duellists saving the world and so on. And anyway, to prove my point, if I wrote and posted a Jaden/Syrus fanfic onto here, would you be disgusted? *slash is the equivalent of yaoi**femmslash is the equivalent of yuri Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scatty Posted April 26, 2010 Report Share Posted April 26, 2010 Yes, we would be disgusted by that. Hey, I'm in the mood of writing a fanfic. Any ideas? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
