The Authors,The Fics and The Bad Wallpaper Maniacs - FINALE!

[Candleshoe]

I'm with Emms in thinking the fight one is GayNow's Coming Back....and I wonder whether the reference to good clean fun is Sally's UberSmut.

I'm too usually impatient to deal well with clues, though, so I'll wait for the answers before making more of an idiot of myself...

[FineyMcFine]

I was thinking that the Good Clean Fun was watty in reference to "Sex and the Clean City" which was one of the fic challenges. Hmmm.

I was also wondering if the Superconducting Supercollider/wisecracks was a reference to The Power of Positive Thinking by, um, me.

[Artemis]

I had the same thought about Good Clean Fun perhaps being Sex and the Clean City. And the 'fight' being the one in Coming Back, but that was only after I saw it suggested - I'm a bit of a doofus at guessing games (plus I was distracted by the words 'naked mud wrestling' )

[watty]

My guesses and reasoning:

Chris -- the "not from this universe" comment suggests to me it's our resident king of uber.

Debra -- Willow's obsession with different coloured pens was in one of the early Menorah Tales chapters. And can we argue that "Elvis" is a brand name?

Sally -- wisecracks in a sub-atomic physics fic? yep yep.

me -- I think it refers to Clean City too; I'm surprised people remember it.

Emmy -- an inspirationally diverse talent ... yep, with writing, and beautiful drawings too.

Car -- the famous fight, what else?


Seeing there are 13 wallpapers in all, I have a pretty good idea who might be in that group of 13, but I'll wait for more clues and for May 1.

Actually that’s not the reason why I haven’t been posting lately. I just have so many things on my mind lately and not so much time but a new wallpaper will be on the board very soon, I promise.

I thought this is the reason why you're not posting lately. I'm kinda bit worried too, coz you haven't posted lately. I do hope that everything's ok with you and your family. But when you mentioned that a new one is coming, that made me like this

Thank you very much , glad you like it That was the whole purpose actually to make it outstanding and it seems I succeeded. Hopefully you can keep your excitement going for next week until the first one will find her way to the bad wallpaper maniacs thread on May 1st.

You're welcome! So, were you the one who made the avatar? OK, I'll try to control my excitement


With regards to guessing, I must admit that I haven't read a lot of fics lately (I'm blamig it to RL) But I'm guessing that the one with art is Emms. Coz she's the only one I know who's both a good writer and a talented artist too.

Good luck again!

[tarebear]

So, were you [petal of roses] the one who made the avatar?

let me answer that for you... yup! the talent behind that avatar is indeed rosey! isn't it great? all of us maniacs thought so too!

Thanks Ces! Yeah, I think it's great and so is this collaborative project. and I assume that it's your idea? Coz you're the one who posted

[tarebear]

and I assume that it's your idea? Coz you're the one who posted

well, it was my idea but i will not take full credit for it... this project would never have been without help from my fellow maniacs.

this is a labor of love... from us to you wonderful kittens dedicated to the best fanfic writers anywhere!

[tarebear]

hiya guys

good job with the guessing guys! i must say, many of you got most of the answers right, but i'm not confirming or denying anything... you'll just have to wait until may 1st.

so... you now have an idea who some of the authors we have decided to "immortalize" with our wallpapers, but you might still be wondering about the others... well, i've got just the thing for your curious brains.

but wait! i think we underestimated you guys with our first "teaser," so i just had to make it more challenging...

so here is what is going on... here is list of five stories that will be presented with a wallpaper, but instead of a summaries or quotables, i give you the feedbacks given by our very own kittens... easy enough you say? let's see if you can get them right!

[center][/center]
anyone up to the challenge?


in any case, see you guys back bright and early may 1st!




ces

[Artemis]

Hmm... 'anxious, maybe a little bit paranoid' - Don't fear the Reaper? One of the early chapters, where Reaper Tara was planning (and subsequently aborting) Willow's untimely demise by any number of bizarre household accidents?

The others... see aforementioned doofusness re: guessing games

[Emms]

I have no Idea.....

Emms

[tarebear]

hiya guys!

thanks to the valiant efforts of chris and ms emms... but the real teaser is this one... this are quoted from five stories we'll be covering in our project...

i guarantee this one will not be the cause of any further headaches

enjoy guessing...

see you guys in a couple of days!

[SithLordWiccan]

Well, I know one of those is "Survivors". As for the rest...hell if I know.

[justin]

The second one is from Season 3 Y'all

[Thianne]

damn! i'm freakin' sure i read each one, and i recognized survivors and season 3 y'all but i can't remember the others.....i won't be able to sleep if you don't tell me!!!!!

[SithLordWiccan]

Now that I think about it, I think the second to last one is from "A Woman In Uniform".

[Candleshoe]

Ooh, ooh, pick me! The one about babies is DarkWiccan's "No matter where you go". I love that line, it goes on to talk about handles for them, right?

[DarkWiccan]

yup, that last one is definitely No Matter Where You Go.

The full sequence is:

"I'm okay," Willow replied, setting down her load inside the living room. "Having a baby makes you an expert at carrying many objects at once."

"I see that," the slayer concurred.

"Provided they have handles," the redhead added.

"I see that too."

I was being very careful not to get my hopes up that there would be one made for any of mine. Thank you so much!!!!!!!

Oh, Hey!!! The fourth one (second to last) is from Watson's Coffee Moods #4.

Cheers
DW

[tarebear]

I think I would pay good money to actually see that become a reality.

Yes, I think I would.

Yes, I think I would.

Never. Going. To. Happen.

Anyway, you'd need your money to buy earplugs.

[GayNow]

Never. Going. To. Happen.

All of these wonderful Kittens are sharing their fabulous talents with us, and you can't wear one little wig and sing one little line from a song?

Cam! Where's your gratitude?

[tarawhipped]

Talent being the operative word here, Car. Or in my case, the lack thereof. For example, I still don't get how these wonderful Kittens make the pretty pictures.

-Cam

ETA: and I have gratitude! I have gratitude coming out of my bottom!

[GayNow]

Talent being the operative word here, Car. Or in my case, the lack thereof. For example, I still don't get how these wonderful Kittens make the pretty pictures.

It's one little sacrifice, Cam. And, there's money involved! I said I'd pay to see it! I bet others would too.

And I really don't want to know what you have coming out of your bottom. LOL

[watty]

I said I'd pay to see it! I bet others would too.

** adds $10 to the "pay to see Cam in a red wig and sing" tin box.

[camlover]

Nobody pays for Cam's services but me.

[Emms]

Woo Hoo! I can't wait!

[Spighy]

I should take the fact that we haven't started posting yet and the thread is already being hacked as a good sign, right?

For example, I still don't get how these wonderful Kittens make the pretty pictures.

Well, they take the screen caps of the scene they need, slap them on an empty file in photoshop, shake their magic mouse at them while saying the secret magic words (yep, we have magic words, and there's a special handshake as well) and after a few hours of brewing the wallpaper is ready!

It's easy, really!

[JustSkipIt]

May 1 in which time zone?

You can take that to mean I can't wait.
