Miscellaneous things... rambling on

[sulky_rhino]

[1] As per request, I have deleted the pimping post for the Snarry O-word we're not allowed to mention anymore. It is now called snarry_games. :D

[2] For the first time ever I am now able to see animated icons. Thank you mordyn4 for telling me what I should do to fix the problem of not seeing images properly (which also fixed the animations)! :D Thanks to you I have

You are half the reason I am handy. :*

You know the Bible 64%!

Congratulations! You know a lot about the Bible - the books, the characters, the events. You are able to remember a lot of what you have heard and read!

Nor do I have any religious education. I read some Bible stories as a kids, I can attribute some of it to that....but I think a lot of it was just flukey guessing. =D

This whole Snarry thing is a bit sad. Honestly, I'd understand if there was any money being made, but...? It's overkill I think.

This whole Snarry thing is a bit sad. Honestly, I'd understand if there was any money being made, but...? It's overkill I think.

Maybe it wasn't because the community would be making money, but because Livejournal would be making money. For example, you can have a paid account for a community, and a community that is really popular is more likely to have a paid account. Also, people download the icons and then use them - and you can buy more icon space on Livejournal. And the same goes for the banners and things like that - you can buy more space for that.

So maybe it wasn't about somebody from the community making money from it (which is obvious they weren't), but about Livejournal themselves. I mean, wouldn't they be the ones that'd get in trouble if they didn't warn the users? :/

It is kind of sad though. I mean, it's not like the community was popular because of the name - it's not like when Coca Cola or Pepsi puts the logo on their drinks and make more money because of it... Meh. :(

Yeah, I guess better safe than sorry - we'd all be in the poop if LJ got into trouble.

Yeah, true - I never think of Olympic as a brand name, more of an adjective, really.

Oh, envious! You got 1 % more Bible knowledge than I! And being completely stupid I`m just considering, if I don`t have enough work to do yet and should start writing fanfiction which means a chapter for the collaborative fic you advertised above. I think it is a fantastic idea and just my cup of tea. But reason wil probably win over passion here after all...

[sulky_rhino]

Aw, you should write something! :D Btw, have you written anything before? :)

Mwahahahaha! *makes a T-shirt that says I know 1% more about the Bible than you*

I just spend too much time reading fic to write anything! I just wrote a tiny ficlet once which was inspired by the now disappeared demon_bride_ who gave me lovely visuals by detailing several events of her life! You can find it in my lj somewhere back in August I think. And one first chapter of a long story in German which was completely horrible and should never be mentioned again!

But if I write something I really should work on that novel that I`m writing for a friend of mine as a wedding present (the wedding has been 4 months ago!). I still have a lot of work to do there.

But I really loved that idea about a blind collaborative fiction work.

Have you ever written something not university related for fandom or something else?

[sulky_rhino]

I've never written anything for fandom. I've written a few stories a few years ago, but I didn't like them. So, I don't write. :P

That icon hypnotizes me, as well. ;)

[sulky_rhino]

Me too... And the one with the snorkack peeing on somebody's lap... O_O They're still hillarious! :P

[therealw]

heh, I got exactly the same result.

[sulky_rhino]

Yay! :D
