Damned_Quotes Update!
Damned Quotes has been updated! Here are the Quotes submitted between August 1st and October 31st, and here is the new submission post for the next three months.
Also, a reminder: the majority of quotes are submitted by a small handful of people. Anyone can submit, and submissions are screened and can be made anonymously (although we recommend making them logged-in so that we can contact you if we need to). If there's something you like, and you're disappointed that it hasn't been recognized, the best way to remedy that is to send it on in. :)
We hope you enjoy the update!

Maybe you have some questions: "What exactly is going on here? What is damned_quotes?"
We can answer that by shamelessly copy-pasting Tia's explanation:
How It Works
On the first of every month Once every three months, a post will go up asking for submissions. See something you think is awesome and should be shared? Then comment to the submission post. All comments are screened, and no one will know who submitted what. Quotes will be put up on those same days in a big review of the monthly awesome. Flailing is welcome. This is pretty much for everyone's enjoyment. Anyone is free to submit and to enjoy, be they player or audience.
Do the quotes have to be recent?
Nope! You can take a quote from any time in the game. We do ask, however, that quotes only come from this incarnation of Landel's.
Does the character actually have to say the line, or can it be in the narrative part of the post?
It can be in the narrative part.
What about bulletin posts?
Bulletin posts are free game! Anything that is from an IC post is welcome to be quoted.
Does it have to be funny?
No. Though most quotes are, serious things are welcome as well. The main thing to remember is that whatever makes you think the quote is great should be evident in the quote.
