Site Moderator TalonRider Posted October 30, 2008 Site Moderator Share Posted October 30, 2008 Point of Interest. Has anyone noticed that this has been the busiest topic in CJ's forum with 67 pages and 1,653 posts? The topic "Should CJ Be Mounted Ontop My Fireplace?" comes in second with 17 pages.

Site Moderator TalonRider Posted October 30, 2008 Site Moderator Share Posted October 30, 2008 If I had to venture a guess, I'd probably say it would be in Dom's forum somewhere. I went thru 11 pages of topics in CJ's forum to make sure this was the longest one. Link to comment
Site Administrator wildone Posted October 31, 2008 Site Administrator Share Posted October 31, 2008 If I had to venture a guess, I'd probably say it would be in Dom's forum somewhere. I went thru 11 pages of topics in CJ's forum to make sure this was the longest one. Well I had fifteen minutes to spare.... So here is the top six actual forums in the hosted authors: For The Love - CJames: 1655 posts Poll: Favorite Story - Comicality: 1018 posts Living In Surreality - Shadowgod: 614 posts Desert Fantasies - Jack Scribe: 255 posts Desert Droppings Ch. 8 - Dom Luka: 198 posts Rider's Pride - dkstories: 127 posts Now it should be noted that 1, 3, 4, and 6 are all forums that were for an entire story, not individual chapters. If you were looking for the most posted about chapter, then I believe it would be Desert Droppings Ch. 8. Also, there is a lot of 'fun' forums like Spice and Since CJ is Away that are actually in the top four, but I choose just to pick the most popular one for each of the Hosted Authors forums only. There is your dose of absolutely useless trivia for the day (and one more post in this forum). Link to comment
Tiger Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 Well, it's just more prove how awesome this story really is. Link to comment

The topic "Should CJ Be Mounted Ontop My Fireplace?" comes in second with 17 pages. It's the largest thread on GA except for a few of the games threads, but there's a reason: The FTL thread grew quite large due to where it was when the story was underway. I wasn't hosted yet so it was in the Efic forum, and in that forum each story gets just one thread. So, instead of having chapter threads like LTMP and CL, it was all in one thread. Well I had fifteen minutes to spare....

There is your dose of absolutely useless trivia for the day (and one more post in this forum). Thanks Steve! More trivia: The largest chapter thread in this forum is, I think, for Chapter 37 of LTMP; 187. About a hundred were in the first 24 hours, possibly because the ending was, perhaps, ever-so-slightly.. tense. Well, it's just more prove how awesome this story really is. Thanks Tim! FTL was my first try at a serial, and i made loads of newbie mistakes, so I'm amazed that it's done so well in readership. Link to comment
Bondwriter Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Thanks Tim! FTL was my first try at a serial, and i made loads of newbie mistakes, so I'm amazed that it's done so well in readership. I won't comment on how FTL allowed me to fit the three bathrooms of my yacht with gold faucets and marble sinks, but I think was a great ride, and you shouldn't look on it as a "newbie" work. The freshness and the general attitude towards popular fiction in it is something to be nurtured in future works. This might be the true Goat voice and tone. Link to comment

I don't think you can go wrong in your writing. I honestly think a lot of you guys on here can put most of the best sellers to shame. Link to comment

Zeoanne Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 When I finished the last chapter I didn't relaize there was an Epilogue. Once at the end of the story all I wanted to do was stick my hands inside monitor and see if I could reach you James!!! I wanted to choke you! LOL!! Couldn't stop thinking "why did you have to kill him???!!!" Needless to say, my heart was on my throat, thought I was gonna spit it out anytime! Then I went back to the story and saw the Epilogue. All was good then and wanted to reach inside the monitor once again, this time to give you a HUGE hug and tell you "Thank You!" That was one of the best stories I've read online so far. And now, I'll be reading all the others you have on here. Again, Thank You!! Love and Light Sandra Link to comment

C James Posted November 17, 2008 Author Share Posted November 17, 2008 Yeah. Right. :wacko: Hrmmm, does this mean that you don't consider chapter 37's ending to be tense at all? Well, Okay, if you insist. Link to comment

Site Administrator Graeme Posted November 17, 2008 Site Administrator Share Posted November 17, 2008 Yeah. Right. :wacko: Hrmmm, does this mean that you don't consider chapter 37's ending to be tense at all? Well, Okay, if you insist. An English professor was lecturing when he made the following assertion: "While double negatives mean a positive, English does not have the reverse, where a double positive means a negative." From the back of the room came the anonymous, sarcastic response: "Yeah, right." Link to comment

hh5 Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 I hope there will be more Steve and Chris horney antics. I am in dire need of more blond jokes especially on Steve. Am I to expect a law of dimishing returns , when the two graduate and live who knows where. Let me guess Steve will get Chris as many pardons as possible. Link to comment

Err, it wouldn't have been you who spoke up to the professor would it!! No. That's just a story I've heard. It's probably an urban myth, but it's accurate -- English has a double positive that means a negative Link to comment
