she called them "statistics."
I liked this meme! And now I have, what, a bunch more to add to it, so I'm just going to completely redo it. And encourage other people to do it. Because it was a rather shiny meme.
Auel Neider from "Gundam SEED Destiny" (auel_fixation)
App Percentage: 87.5% Someone who wasn't supposed to vote ended up voting, so Biz manually calculated this one.
Played From: May 2005 to September 2005
That's How Long? Four months
Total Comments: 1,493
Overall Pecentage: 1.62%
Reason For Dropping: Auel was wonderful crack, but started my trend of not doing so hot with characters who were for crack only! I grew really tired of his threads real fast, and nearly dropped him several times in August before I got up the nerve to just RIP THE BAND-AID OFF in September 2005. Now we have an Auel who is much more IC and plays, and all is well in the world.
Select Option 3? Wolfram as his "drug dealer" was hilarious.
Heine Westenfluss from "Gundam SEED Destiny" (heine_sight)
App Percentage: 85.7%
Played From: June 2005 to August 2006
That's How Long? One year, two months
Total Comments: 17,506
Overall Pecentage: 18.96%
Reason For Dropping: I loved Heine. So hard. But towards the end, I'd felt like I'd really lost my grasp on his voice, and he was so far from canon that I couldn't really fix that. It didn't help that canon didn't give a whole heck of a lot on Heine, and I didn't have translations for the Edge. Rather than fix that, I sort of let him wallow for a bit, and then finally let him go.
Select Option 3? I get this mental image of Ryuuken sitting on the front porch wearing a hat, with a shotgun. And it still makes me laugh.
Yuuki Nao from "My-HiME" (ob_durate)
App Percentage: 88.1%
Played From: July 2005 to August 2005
That's How Long? One month
Total Comments: 116
Overall Pecentage: 0.13%
Reason For Dropping: The problem with Nao was that she really needs certain people in camp, first of all. Secondly, she has to be played a lot more than I was willing to play her at the time. Aaaand all that aside, the person who plays her has to be willing to be abrasive, because that's what Nao requires. I was too afraid of stepping on toes at the time, heh! So she quickly got the axe.
Select Option 3? THINK THINGS THROUGH BEFORE YOU APP, KIDS.
Lacus Clyne from "Gundam SEED Destiny" (mizu_no_akashi)
App Percentage: 100%
Played From: August 2005 to November 2005
That's How Long? Three months
Total Comments: 843
Overall Pecentage: 0.91%
Reason For Dropping: Lacus is a Jesus! Lacus is supposed to top you! I ... had difficulty with that after awhile! She's another character that requires a LOT of concentration, IMHO, and I just could not keep that up. She got difficult after a month, and I knew then that I'd have to let her go. Thankfully, we have a Lacus now that is awesome. ♥
Select Option 3? I kept her for a month longer than I intended to because I loved her icons.
Robert Haydn from "The Law of Ueki" (_higher_)
App Percentage: 82.2%
Played From: October 2005 to August 2007
That's How Long? One year, ten months
Total Comments: 19,780
Overall Pecentage: 21.42%
Reason For Dropping: It was his time! I have no regrets about the Robert drop, unlike my wahwah occasional wangst over Heine's. I loved developing him and playing out his relationships, but at the end of it all, it was really time to let him go home and get back to things.
Select Option 3? Getting sedated and being forced to watch girly movies on Halloween 2006 was kind of awesome.
Anon from "The Law of Ueki" (homphgomph)
App Percentage: 86.4%
Played From: November 2005 to September 2006
That's How Long? Ten months
Total Comments: 3,055
Overall Pecentage: 3.31%
Reason For Dropping: Anon was a lot of fun to play, but ultimately, he was way too difficult, what with being a huge god-mode and all. That aside, canon never really revealed what was up with him, like his precognition. Did he really have that, or ...? I always felt really awkward with him in certain situations, which made it hard to play him! That aside, he wouldn't really make connections. I contemplate reapping him every now and then because I miss him and I miss having a character for crack, but I also figure that I'd run into the same issues after a month and then I'd be back at square one.
Select Option 3? THE BABY WAS OKAY.
Jay the Unseen from "Tales of Legendia" (chizakura)
App Percentage: 81.4%
Played From: February 2006 to June 2006
That's How Long? Four months
Total Comments: 1,171
Overall Pecentage: 1.27%
Reason For Dropping: God, I loved Jay in the game. Loved Jay. With that said, he's a character that needs to be played as a primary or at least consistently, and I could never quite jive with him. I hit a wall after a month with all his barrier stuff, and he quickly became sort of unplayable for me!
Select Option 3? It was hilarious having people try to figure out his name for that first week.
Sakuraba Haruto from "Eyeshield 21" (haphazardace)
App Percentage: 89.3%
Played From: June 2006 to the present
That's How Long? One year, seven months
Total Comments: 23,406
Overall Pecentage: 25.35%
Reason For Apping: Hahaha god. I loved Sakuraba when I first read Eyeshield, and when I reread it during finals in Spring 2006, I remembered how much I loved him, and since I had hit a rut with Heine and Robert, I had to have him. He's like the little engine that could -- every time I think I've hit a wall with him, something happens or he has some thread with someone new, and my love is instantly revived. I think, out of all of mine, Sakuraba is one of the two that stands the best chance of staying in my line-up for a long time.
Select Option 3? God HOW DO I CHOOSE. I just love having a normal boy who gets into abnormal situations, because his take is so random and cracks me up half the time. S-Sakurabaaa.
Kakei Shun from "Eyeshield 21" (high_wave)
App Percentage: 87%
Played From: September 2006 to March 2007
That's How Long? Six months.
Total Comments: 2,350
Overall Pecentage: 2.54%
Reason For Dropping: I actually do regret Kakei's drop! But he became incredibly hard to play without Mizumachi. However, it ... even if Mizumachi hadn't dropped, I would have dropped him eventually anyway. The point in canon that he came from was difficult to deal with, and he became real unhappy real fast with camp. I do regret his drop, though, because I miss his threads with Katou and Himawari.
Select Option 3? It took me a month to come up with the concept for Kakei's app, and two weeks to write it. His app was the one I worked the hardest on up until that point -- Hei's app has since beaten this out for that "honor." And since those two, I've become a last-minute apping whore.
Karakuchi Kouji from "Medabots" (shadowedprodigy)
App Percentage: 70.4%
Played From: November 2006 to January 2007
That's How Long? Two months
Total Comments: 362
Overall Pecentage: 0.39%
Reason For Dropping: One Saturday morning, I got bored, watched a couple episodes of Medabots, and remembered how much I loved Kouji and how cool it'd be to play him in a game like CFUD. I wrote the app in an hour on a whim (okay, and enabling from master_of_mon). ... it didn't do so well! I never got my footing after that, and never really wanted to settle in because I was so unnerved about the app, so he got the drop in January.
Select Option 3? Yeah, okay, I loved bouncing him off of Kid.
Miles Edgeworth from "Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney" (attorneyatlol)
App Percentage: 97.3%
Played From: December 2006 to the present
That's How Long? One year
Total Comments: 5,910
Overall Pecentage: 6.40%
Reason For Apping: Edgeworth RESTORED MY APPING HONOR. His app is one of the highest scoring apps I've ever written, and started my whole "lol crank out apps that score in the 90s at the last second" thing. That said, I loved Edgeworth in the games. I was also horribly topped by aviy, but I liked it, really. :( He's more of a posting-type character and is having his ups and downs, but c'est la vie and I have the most awesome canon-mates ever, okay.
Select Option 3? That. That post with Ema and the catnip, oh lord.
Sohma Akito from "Fruits Basket" (deusvobiscum)
App Percentage: 80.4%
Played From: February 2007 to September 2007
That's How Long? Seven months
Total Comments: 969
Overall Pecentage: 1.05%
Reason For Dropping: ... god. I loved Akito when I read the manga, and I knew he'd be hard to play. I'm actually kind of surprised his app got over 80%! But he was fun, until I hit a point where I got so exhausted playing him. I couldn't play him for more than an hour towards the end, and that was when I realized that I had to let him go.
Select Option 3? Push the button, Hatori.
Sasaki Koutarou from "Eyeshield 21" (kickoptionthree)
App Percentage: 98.3%
Played From: April 2007 to September 2007
That's How Long? Five months
Total Comments: 1,506
Overall Pecentage: 1.63%
Reason For Dropping: I had a lot of regrets and "wahwah I suck" when I dropped Koutarou, but looking back on it, I had fun with him when I had him and then dropped him when he stopped being fun. Koutarou was for crack! He wasn't really a longterm character, either, and I should have recognized that when I dropped him. It wasn't failure; it was just me setting him aside for someone else to pick up after I'd played.
Select Option 3? THE ANTEATERS ARE SMART!
Li Shunsheng / Hei from "Darker than Black" (darkasthe)
App Percentage: 92.0%
Played From: June 2007 to the present
That's How Long? Seven months
Total Comments: 8,684
Overall Pecentage: 9.40%
Reason For Apping: Darker than Black had me hooked after episode 1, and I knew I wanted to play Hei like burning after episode 3. He just seemed like such a complex character, and there was so much I wanted to play around with. He intrigued me! I've hit my rough patches here and there, but he's so complex and relatively versatile with his Li persona that I can pull him out nearly anywhere.
Select Option 3? Any thread with the Gurren Lagann kids or Ikki. I. God. I also put more time into his app than I have any other app; it got written piece by piece and was meticulously torn apart by a few betas over the course of a month.
Sanada Akihiko from "Persona 3" (fistfirst)
App Percentage: 84.3%
Played From: September 2007 to the present
That's How Long? Four months. I know this because his account expires tomorrow
Total Comments: 4,117
Overall Pecentage: 4.46%
Reason For Apping: "Haha, this guy in the artbook looks like the type I'd app!" SOB. HOW TRUE. I just. I loved Akihiko's retardation and determination in the game, and really wanted a more headstrong character. He gets difficult at times because his surface reactions mirror Sakuraba's sometimes, oops. Go figure, with my two schoolboys!
Select Option 3? Xenosaga weekend with Mitsuru and Shinji was a blast.
Dist the Reaper Rose from "Tales of the Abyss" (gonnagetreaped)
App Percentage: 91.5%
Played From: December 2007 to the present
That's How Long? One month
Total Comments: 502
Overall Pecentage: 0.54%
Reason For Apping: After dropping Koutarou, I missed having a character for crack. I nearly apped Isaac from Baccano! to get a crack character back (this fell through because Isaac is damn hard to write on his own). I feared apping one and dropping them a few months later, though. ... and then I played Tales of the Abyss. ... and then I randomly wanted to app Dist and aviy enabled me. I like him because he is for crack, but he can actually have semi-serious conversations and moments, which makes him more appealing to me. But mostly, Dist is for crack, and I am cool with that. Especially since he gets raped whenever I comment with him. ilu guys.
Select Option 3? ... christ, I don't know. HIS INTRO POST. A-Auntie Van's.
Toudou Heisuke from "Shinsengumi Imon Peacemaker / Peacemaker Kurogane" (countyourchikns)
App Percentage: 92.6%
Played From: January 2008 to the present
That's How Long? One week
Total Comments: 576
Overall Pecentage: 0.62%
Reason For Apping: I'VE DETAILED THE STORY IN HIS JOURNAL. But I have loved Heisuke since forever -- I just didn't app him at first because of similarities to Heine and fear of counselors. olol. He has a lot of canon and history to draw from, and he's so versatile, that he's the other one besides Sakuraba that I can see staying in my line-up for awhile. Needless to say, I am ecstatic to have a character that is sociable and relatively friendly and personable.
Select Option 3? He's too new! But I did love running Haru's auction.
IN CONCLUSION
I've played here HOW long? Two years, 255 days

Highest Percentage: Lacus Clyne (100%), Sasaki Koutarou (98.3%)
Lowest Percentage: Karakuchi Kouji (70.4%)
SCHOOL RAPED ME and my average comments per day dropped. Oh well, que sera sera. My app percentages have been steadily climbing over the past year, which pleases me! I've apped a whopping seventeen times now, and my drop total is still only at eleven! N-not too shabby. I won't say "I'm never apping again" because -- I know I am, heh. I will learn the art of balance this year, though! I've been slowly settling into a playing pattern that I'm relatively happy with, so hopefully, that'll help me zen out over things.
... also, random: I have eight apps under lock in this journal for betaing. One has never been submitted. O-oops?
