    Revisions

    Another great article! What is a video store, an arcade and a mall? Is a mall the giant derelict building with one store in them and a collection of pot holes that used to be a parking lot? And I love the comparison videos with Star Wars. I was in college when Lucasfilm released the remastered edition of the films. They were the ones I saw in theaters because I was a bit too young having been born the day they did the critics screening for Star Wars. lol. I love Star Wars... or did until the vile, vapid Darth Kathleen Kennedy destroyed it with Darth Ruin Johnson in the Last Jedi. (Talk about truth in advertising there). But slipping back, I remember the raging debates about updating Star Wars from the original to the enhanced/remastered 20th anniversary editing back in 1997. Overall, people liked the changes, though the whole "Greedo shot first" debate still triggers people. lol. (for the record, I loved the original, the remastered, the prequels 1-3 (Less Jar Jar), tolerated/ignored Mary Sue Palpatine in Ep 7 and told Ep 8 and 9 to F off and die.) I've read somewhere that stories are never finished, they are just pulled out of the hands of the author... Revision has been a thing I've struggled with since I was a very avid HP fan-fiction writer in 2002... I'm still an avid reader of HP Fanfiction, having found any number of stories that far exceeded the original. But my own has languished for a LONG time because of revision. I've been ever-so-slowly rewriting it because I simply can't conclude it from where it is without doing justice to it. Anyway. Thanks for another engaging article with some great video examples!
  3. The world lost a talented man today. Though I've read he hated the fame from this movie... I grew up watching this every year. And of course the joy of listening to his voice quoting Shakespeare dressed as a Klingon.
  4. But this is a gay site... talking about Tom Cruise is kind of a thing for people of a certain age...
  5. You can rule out a story on GA by checking "My Reading History"... assuming you always stay logged in and you haven't gone over 30 days without visiting...
  6. Earlier before the post:
  7. Thanks @Comicality! I will give that a try. You did a pretty good job of putting into words what I was feeling as I write. I tend to write out scenes, sometimes even random ones, that get integrated with a story. Which is to say, what I'm writing at the moment may not be used in the story of the moment, but used later in the story or something in another story. As for what I'm feeling at the moment... 😫🥶🤪
  8. What is Reputation? Reputation is the total number of reactions you have received for your posted content. Each reaction (Like, Love, Ha Ha, etc) counts as +1 to your reputation. What are Reputation Titles/Levels? Reputation Title/Level is shown on the profile with the Reputation Count. The Titles were changed in early 2021 to be writing themed and levels in a "Scribe's Guild". They are: Title Rep Count Explorer 0 Novice Scribe 3rd 1 Novice Scribe 2nd 50 Novice Scribe 1st 100 Initiate Scribe 3rd 250 Initiate Scribe 2nd 300 Initiate Scribe 1st 400 Apprentice Scribe 3rd 500 Apprentice Scribe 2nd 600 Apprentice Scribe 1st 750 Journeyman Scribe 3rd 1000 Journeyman Scribe 2nd 1500 Journeyman Scribe 1st 2500 Adept Scribe 3rd 5,000 Adept Scribe 2nd 7,500 Adept Scribe 1st 10,000 Master Scribe 3rd 15,000 Master Scribe 2nd 25,000 Master Scribe 1st 50,000 Grand Master Scribe 3 100,000 Grand Master Scribe 2 250,000 Grand Master Scribe 1 500,000 The Numbers 3,2, and 1 should be read as 3rd class, 2nd Class, and 1st Class.
  9. Question: What is Reputation? What are Reputation Titles/Levels? Short Answer: Reputation is a point total given from reactions and achievement points. View full question
  10. That's probably better than having to suffer the sounds of Walt Whitman and having your head explode...
