We can use the current one. I like the big trees and slightly smarter dorfs.

The fact she was sleeping is why he was able to meet with the liason.

[Xahnel]

I still ran with it. >

Gentlemen... It is done.

^{I joke. They all link to the same thing.}

The complete story of Spearbreakers, as it stands so far. Statistics:

• 20.47 MB
• 250,549 words - roughly equal to 2.5 full-length novels. This would take somewhere around 17 hours to read.
• 658 pages - if made into a book. It would undoubtedly take more than one.

My friends, we have created an epic that rivals the succession forts of lore. All derails aside, this is the fruit of our labor, in the form of condensed awesomesauce.

is this up on the mainpage yet?

[Xahnel]

Indeed it is. And we should contact toady one to get him to set up an adfly link to the download.

[Paintbrushturkey]

meh, why bother

[Splint]

I enjoy the fact our TVTropes page is steadily growing. I take joy in that for no damned reason other than it spreading the madness beyond Bay12.

I should download this and have some good readin'. Pity my iPod doesn't support Docs, so i can only read at home. :3

[Paintbrushturkey]

just convert it to pdf....

[Reudh]

iPod Nano, a very old one. I think it only supports txt files. Oh well, I will just read it here.

[Paintbrushturkey]

copy paste it to editor and save it as text then....

@Tlvi what is wrong with using just black text why would you highlght it and set the text to white?

[Talvieno]

SOMEONE USED AWESOMESAUSE!  *YAY*
MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I HAVE WON! A WORD I SEAD GOT USED BY ONE OF THE GODS OF THE FORUMS! AND I STILL CANT SPELL!

Somebody considers me a god of the forums? Seriously? Can't say I agree with you, but that's awesome of you to say - thanks.

So, yeah, tomorrow it's official: rose x talvi is A Thing. Prolly shouldn't have mentioned rose spent all day in bed one day, splint.
EDIT: I apologize to any tavli frog shippers, but the story Sank Your Ship.

Xahnel, could you hold off on that a bit while I get a few things straightened out? Maybe just have Rose meet Talvi to begin with. It'll be more natural anyway.

Indeed it is. And we should contact toady one to get him to set up an adfly link to the download.

Not worth it. Adfly hardly brings in any money at all.

Yes, I hadn't thought about it...  Sorry you can't read it. Let me get everything else straightened out, and then I'll see what I can do.

@Tlvi what is wrong with using just black text why would you highlght it and set the text to white?

For one thing, I find it easier on the eyes... but mainly, because Formatting. The computer I'm currently being forced to use only has Microsoft Word 2002 installed, and it doesn't have anywhere near to all the features of 2007 (which I lost when my laptop became a brick). Quotes and spoilertext have an artificial background behind them that's ignored by Word for some reason - changing the background color doesn't affect it, and it looks horrible. I'm going to try to figure out a way around that. I thought I'd get up what I had so that people could read it right away, but now I'm wondering if I should've waited.

my fault. sorry. I probably shouldn't have been the one to do it.
edit: On the other hand, I find it highly amusing.

[Xahnel]

The journal goes back to the fifteenth of timber. Don't worry, I didn't rush it or anything. You did say her reasoning for being with Rose is a feeble attempt to make Mr Frog jealous. I just went with the normal "getting back at the ex with someone new" speed. If you want, i can pm it to you when i get to the library.

Spearbreakers.doc (Download link) | Spearbreakers.pdf (Download link)

Paintbrushturkey, your problems are fixed. I had to go through and manually remove the shading from every paragraph (seriously a pain, and had to do it on a different computer). Everything is black text with a white background now. It looks a lot, lot neater.
And just for you, Reudh - it's also in *.pdf format. Enjoy.


Xahnel - yeah, PM it to me so I can look it over. Still trying to work a few things out.

[Splint]

Alright boys and girls, I am awake, and I am making my next forray into Spearbreakers. Once more, barring another battle (Those are a bitch to write from a journal perspective) I should be done today.
