The Rise and Fall of the Matrix

[Winged Warrior]

Can't hold in the... late fanfiction excitement...

Next he will post a filler and the thread will be dead...

... Actually...

[Mikero]

Really? "Hacking 7th anniversaries"?

Eh.

[Jakey]

When it comes to 8th anniversaries they sure are #####ed.

[Dr.]

You suck.

[Edgecrusher]

So much hostility...

[Yubi Shines]

Where's the facepalm bunny macro when you need it?

[Dr.]

Dead. Sorry,  Yubi.

[Yubi Shines]

Nooo!

First the pancake bunny, then the bucket lolrus, and now this?!

[Edgecrusher]

Haha the pancake bunny?

And now you know.

[Mikero]

Yeah I read in the summer that Oolong died and I frowny face emoticon'd about it.

[preventerWIND]

OMG OMG OMG TOMOROW IS FRIDAY!

Is anyone else as excited as I am!?

[ASR]

Yes.


Assuming you aren't excited at all.

[ASR]

...wait, what? You haven't been writing it yet? So you chose Friday as the day when you would write and finish the first installement?

YOU HAD BETTER FOLLOW THROUGH WITH SOME QUALITY WORK OR YOU'LL HAVE SOME 'SPLAININ TO DO

[Dr.]

Fail.

[Mikero]

No worries man. It's better than cutting it once it's started.

[ASR]

This week, you should actually try working on it in little bits at a time instead of waiting until Friday.

[Dr.]

Yeah, I just like #####ing with you. Slow it down and work on it bits at a time.

[ASR]

Doc, you fail at being an asshole because you either A) apologize afterwards or B) say "it's just how I am."

Real assholes don't stop it when told to, and they don't acknowledge it either.

[Jakey]

The only thing worse than an asshole is a pussy asshole.

[ASR]

But I'm already expecting it for Friday!!!

[preventerWIND]

I crapped my pants. Because I did NOT see that coming! YEAH!

[ASR]

You see...to us he used to be this really persistent Russian guy

Almost stopped reading.

as he fought endlessly with the annoying Russian guy (known to all of us as Dr. Wily

Almost stopped reading again.

...and somehow I read most of it.

This has nothing to do with MMM. Abby? What? You basically just made quick assumptions about us from the little things you could find. Mike is the ninja, not Kamon. I never used to have the most posts, and I'm just as surprised as anyone. Snare talks more than ANYONE, at least I'd imagine so if I were to meet him in real life. Jake... gah, Jake just defies... nevermind. Nevermind.
Oh, and you glorified yourself. No-no. Big no-no.

LASTLY LASTLY LASTLY
I do enjoy your writing style to an extent. It's silly and effective, but of course the grammar in general needs work. Don't sweat it, I like your style a lot. I'm not putting you down, I'm just bringing you back to reality and explaining that you really don't know enough about MMM to... you know... write about it.

[LoyalMDOFan]

Okay seriously I know I don't know enough; that's why it's FICTION. I think I've already explained how lighthearted and made up it's going to be. And where did I glorify myself? Xero is there to watch over me because I was hastily appointed. It's not like I'm the only one in the story. And I know who the hell Dr. Wily is...all that crap was a JOKE. I've taken it down and I QUIT; how about next time don't look for errors just sit back and enjoy? All I tried to do was make a light-hearted story. Like I said I told everyone that it wouldn't be accurate and it's all made up.

[Edgecrusher]

That's... disappointing.

Thanks a #####ing lot ASR!

[Mikero]

One person's opinion and it gets taken down? That's more than disappointing.

[Yubi Shines]

Ladies and gentlemen, observe: The first flounce-o-rama of this incarnation of MMMatrix.

[ChaosVortex]

This is similar to Red Falcon's response to WIND at Atomic-Fire when it still existed. Like Mike, THIS dissappoints me, not the story. Although to be honest, I'm not much into literature, but even still this is kinda low.

[preventerWIND]

Seriously, I never thought calling someone a space-hippie was so offensive. ;-;

[Mikero]

It's not.

Man... Quitting is one thing. Taking the whole thing down is another. I'm by no means a quitter but at least I can kind of understand that. But not taking it down... That's like.. Hiding.

Ladies and gentlemen, observe: The first flounce-o-rama of this incarnation of MMMatrix.

Flounce. The perfect name for it! Wicked.

[TheRedPriest]

Didn't read any of it, but the surrounding drama/##### storm shows it was ill conceived.

Bottom line, don't do fan work if you don't have a VERY solid understanding/knowledge of what you're writing about.

Either way, it's low. ASR said he wasn't trying to put him down, in fact it sounded like constructive criticism. He just totally flipped out when it's not necessary.

I mean jeeze, even if it's bad, try to improve. Don't cry about it.

[Mikero]

That's exactly what I was trying to say.

[ASR]

It WAS constructive criticism. In fact, I liked it. I was telling him that I'd like to see him start some of his own original work rather than attempting to tell a story about us.

If it's going to be fictional, why not make it fictional?

[Fatso]

Bottom line, don't do fan work if you don't have a VERY solid understanding/knowledge of what you're writing about.

That never stopped me from writing (what little there was of) my SC fanfics.  However, they were not spectacular in the slightest, so it actually becomes case in point. And ever since those crappy-ass, unfinished projects were finally disposed with, I've not really had occasion to attempt anything other than original work.

On the other hand, I have half an idea for an MMX fanfic that may or may not emerge in the next 12-18 months.
