Possible Downtime for Hardware Upgrades
BronxWench replied to ApolloImperium's topic in Site Announcements
DG, I'm still having a boatload of issues myself. I've refreshed, running FF5 on Win 7, and no joy here. My cache has been emptied multiple times, and I'm stuck with a Profile dropdowm menu locked open, no ability to access my setting, no RTE, and no SB or PMs... -
As reported in TOSmail: Story Author profile This is old, and might get picked up on clean-up, if it hasn't been noted already....

I have begun the all too short season of basking in the warmth and sunlight, and banishing all memory of cold and snow...

At least your great nation has warmth and sunlight! Here they are but myths!

Too early for this to be it. Have faith there'll be more.

I want to know why I get recaptchas in kanji... I mean, really...

Hi, and nice to meet you! I was all excited thinking I was about to read something new about my fic, but there you have it.... more crushing disappointment for a hapless author. Anyway, since relatively few people venture into the dark corner of the forums that this thread lives in, you might want to say hi over here: Introduce Yourself! More people will meet you that way, instead of just one crushed and lonely author!

What I dislike about fanfics and their authors
BronxWench replied to a topic in Personal Rants & Journals
Ugh, the "FLASHBACK!" thing makes me crazy as well. I've used flashbacks, and I've set them apart by the use of italics, showing a deviation from the rest of the chapter without the use of neon or shouting. But those glaring all-caps warnings just ruin the flow of a chapter for me, and act as a turn-off, no matter how good the story might be. On the topic, the endless list of how certain forms of dialogue will be shown also bugs me no ends. If you know how to do it, the reader will pick up on it without a clue card. And yes, I can do without the often far too intimate details of the author's life. If you're writing to work through an issue from your personal life, I applaud you, but if the story's not well written it's not going to hold me no matter how much I admire your pluck and determination. -

Quidam: n. Somebody; one unknown...

I keep coming up with it as Latin...
From the OED:
Rare; L., f: qui;
From Bedell (1624):
Who were these quidams that laid hands on Scory?
Spenser (1579): So many vnworthy quidams, which catch at the garlond which to you alone is dewe. (eccentric spellings his for a change).
And Mountagu (1641): Some individuum vagum, a certaine quidam in the Clouds. (again, spelling his and not me).
-
Ahh, you found the spenser ref! I looked through and found it only in a latin phrase. Thanks for this
It's especially useful because they show the word can properly sit in a sentence after "this" or "these" All of Spenser's spelling is pretty eccentric. He did some fun stuff tho' -
Happy to help! ::big grin::

Prompt: Gallimaufry "The Gauntlet" From JayDee: I think their gauntlet is easier than ours. At least they get to occasionally whack things with a sword... We'll see how well Wraith has put his past to rest, but Alistair is certainly stepping forward a bit more, and that's never a bad thing. The shy Chantry boy is staking his claim.
