Flurry 2007 -- & the pending demise of free Geocities

Post by **DragonFlight** » Sat Apr 19, 2008 8:36 am

I might get done tomorrow, I just ended up too busy this weekend to get finished any earlier. Just FYI.

What time on Sunday the 20th is the deadline? >.> I have several to send you, but I'm not sure I can finish them all today. If I have some time tomorrow, I probably will be able to.

Cacopheny · Post by **Cacopheny** » Sat Apr 19, 2008 2:13 pm

Double-post, go me. I just sent in three. Poke me if the email thing still isn't working and you don't get them. Will hopefully have more for you tomorrow.

Sending two sponsors in a minute or so..

Starburst · Post by **Starburst** » Sat Apr 19, 2008 9:12 pm

Totally sending at least one... o_o;; I want to kick my band director for making us rehearse so much this weekend. I've had no time at all and was lucky to finish this one.

Depending on what time the deadline is, you might see some more from me. But it'll take a miracle at this rate. XD

*finally starts finishing candidates* x.x; Gah. I hate it when my muses go on vacation. *fallover*

*send in first novo* I'll finish the others tomorrow. Hopefully in time to get them in. @.@

Post by **DragonFlight** » Sun Apr 20, 2008 1:42 pm

I mailed in mine, hope you got ok. @_@

I totally wanted to send a candidate or ten for this, but finals are coming up and school's gotta take priority, I sorry

I did have half of a candidate story scribbled down but I'm not even sure if it counts as "then and now" ... which SHOULD be such a cool subject to write for, I'm just drained. Anyway congrats to all who gets one, sorry I couldn't contribute more.

What time today?

12:00:01 TUESDAY.

I intended to give you all of today, and I don't know if I'll have time tomorrow evening or not, so you all win an extra day.

Starburst · Post by **Starburst** » Sun Apr 20, 2008 2:24 pm

*bear hug*

You have no idea how much I love you right now. <3333333

I can probably finish another two or three before the deadline now! ^_^ *skitters off to write*

Post by **DragonFlight** » Sun Apr 20, 2008 6:28 pm

It occurs to me I actually have to tweak one of my stories cause I blanked on the topic. Oh how I hate my brain....it'll be fixed this evening. @_@

Cacopheny · Post by **Cacopheny** » Sun Apr 20, 2008 8:54 pm

I loves you. Thank you, Ty. Cuz I totally didn't work on my others today at all >.< :: very bad :: Will get them to you tomorrow, either that or a panicked "halfway done!! they're coming!!" email ,or something XD

Unyko · Post by **Unyko** » Sun Apr 20, 2008 9:14 pm

Ty, you are a saint. *CLING LOVE* *back to work on remaining unfinished stories* <3!

Edit: *sends in second candidate* Darn, I was hoping to have at least three in there. Oh well, I guess these two will have to do. ^.^;; *salute!* *to bed now*

Thank goodness for the one day extension! Got my story finished, just have to page it and send it in tonight when I finally get home...I'm going to be one of those slipping in beneath the wire I think... >.> What time zone is that deadline in? Hopefully not Eastern because I doubt I'll have my story in before 9pm Pacific... >.>

TyGryph · Post by **TyGryph** » Mon Apr 21, 2008 4:40 pm

I live in the Central time zone; my deadline... yeah; make it Pacific. I'll be sleeping at midnight anyway.

Xalia · Post by **Xalia** » Mon Apr 21, 2008 5:30 pm

Ah good! I'll send my story to you before I go to bed tonight so you should have it when you get up in the morning...

Xalia · Post by **Xalia** » Mon Apr 21, 2008 11:08 pm

Okay, candidate sent!

Let me know if you don't get the e-mail, Ty!

Starburst · Post by **Starburst** » Mon Apr 21, 2008 11:15 pm

*slidesinjustunderthewireandholycrapdoesiteverfeelgoodtobedone*
FOUR CANDIDATES, BABY.

At this point yesterday I didn't even envision myself finishing one.

I found the last two when going through my unfinished candidate stories, and they fit perfectly into the theme. I just had to add a chapter to their story and poof! instant Flurry candidates.

*collapses dead on the floor* And here's to a much-deserved sleepytime.

Let me know if you didn't get any of the emails. You should have Arielle, Frost, and soon Fabricath and Scuolath from me.

TyGryph · Post by **TyGryph** » Tue Apr 22, 2008 9:07 pm

The bonder/sponsor list has been updated.
At the moment, I have 43 characters, ten of those are sponsors.

If you sent your character as a sponsor or prefer-to-sponsor, please check that I have them marked on the list as (sponsor)

http://www.geocities.com/ryslen_flurry/ ... Novos.html

I have to double check and see if I have all the extensions in yet.

Cacopheny · Post by **Cacopheny** » Wed Apr 23, 2008 7:44 am

Vienel would be cool with bonding, too ^^ Whichever works best for story/pairing.

Quachir · Post by **Quachir** » Wed May 28, 2008 8:17 am

I've got to ask, how goes the preping (extentions and/or story) for this, Ty? Not that I can do anything myself until I move to my new apartment on Monday but I'm just curious while I have nothing to do at work (thought that will change in five minutes or less as my boss just told me;P)

Quachir · Post by **Quachir** » Sun Apr 05, 2009 11:13 pm

*prods topic* You know, I was just checking this again and realized for some reason Kazey's not no the list though I know he was finished nearly a year ago now. Did I forget to give you that info Ty?

TyGryph · Post by **TyGryph** » Mon Apr 06, 2009 9:16 am

I don't recall getting it, Quachir.
Probably better send it again.

Quachir · Post by **Quachir** » Tue Apr 07, 2009 2:40 pm

OK sent it both by E-mail and PM... which I just looked and I seemed to have mentioned to you I was done but didn't give the link... I think at the time you'd had it from me chatting with you on AIM but it's easily lost that way.

TyGryph · Post by **TyGryph** » Tue Sep 29, 2009 2:47 pm

First: Let me assure you that the Flurry WILL hatch... eventually.
I have the dragons drawn; some of them are finished templates.

But my priority right now is getting all of my Geocities pages copied to my harddrive.

How this relates to the Flurry:
Mine aren't the only pages on Geocities that are endangered, and all of the Novos who reside there will need new pages, and I'm not thrilled at the prospect of having half of the candidates being dead pages.

Here is the list of the Novos as it stands right now, in case anybody has forgotten who they submitted.
http://www.geocities.com/ryslen_flurry/ ... Novos.html

If yours are on Geocities, please post in this thread the new links when you repage those characters.

If yours are not on Geocities, please confirm that you still want them in and either (a) confirm that your link is still correct or (b) give me the new link.

It is not impossible that I'll reopen the list and take a few more Novos. There are a lot of factors that will go into that decision, so don't jump the gun on me.

Porcha Trois is still in and still at the same location!

Post by **StarFyre** » Tue Sep 29, 2009 5:13 pm

My six, Kyran, Eli, Luna, Raiyan, Selas, and Asari, are still in and still in the same place. ... When I remember and have time, I'll actually get around to putting the rest of the story up online *rolls eyes* If I remember where that story WENT anymore...

Yakima · Post by **Yakima** » Tue Sep 29, 2009 5:41 pm

Shard, have I ever mentioned I still get a kick out of what you called your domain. XD

Shard · Post by **Shard** » Tue Sep 29, 2009 6:59 pm

Thanks. At least it's original, though plenty of people misspell it and add a g to droppin. I should probably just buy dropping-the-fork too, but meh I have no money.
