CFUD App Blather

[soc_puppet]

I'm about halfway through the first draft of my character application for CFUD. I can already tell what sort of reactions I would get if I just sent the finished version in as is: I'd probably only manage thirty percent "in" at best (most likely lower if they do another "(fandom I'm apping from) only" voting post). Reasons would probably be along the lines of "It wasn't really that funny/it was sort-of amusing, but I didn't get a good sense of character" etc. So I'm going to finish this draft and then look back to see if I can shove characterization into it anywhere, make it flow better, the works. I'll probably do a third draft of it just to be safe, and then see about getting the hell beta'd out of it >3

That being said, people who watch CFUD on my flist? Can I look to you for the first round of beta-ing? *Bambi eyes go here* Also, anyone else planning to app this round? :3

Aaaand, that's about it for now ^^a I'm off to hopefully volunteer at the Crisis Center, because I need more structure in my life :P Probably gonna juggle between downloading Law of Ueki episodes re-reading CFUD apps from the last round and reading CFUD itself. Second Mandatory Nude Day, after all ♥

*salutes* You can always count on me.

And I dunno if I'll app or not. I get the feeling that I just don't do very well with camper apps but may get in CFUD because of a counselor app. Any ideas on what i could do would be helpful. ^___^;;;

[soc_puppet]

Joyness :D ♥♥♥

...Question clarification perhaps? :D;;; You need ideas/suggestions/help in writing camper apps, you need ideas for what to do with apps, or you need ideas for who to app (counselor or camper)?

[jeva-chan.livejournal.com]

♥♥♥

...all of the above? XD;;; Actually, I have no problems with the counselor apps ideas (I've got an idea for reapping Urahara, apping for Vash, for Jack O'Neill, for John Critchon...), but campers...eh...having a bit of trouble. :D;;;;

[soc_puppet]

Lessee here... Well, if you're familiar with Ouran High School Host Club, there's an anonymouse on the last page of the recent date announcement that's looking for a Kaoru to double-app with. People are also begging for the KH2 Twilight Town crew (downloadable cutsceenes here ♥), and I think you might make a good Squall Leon. We have no official Riku yet, though you'd probably have competition. Or you could try for one of the Org XIII :D

As for app content, I'm not so good with that myself ^^a I barely managed to come up with anything for my current try :/

[jeva-chan.livejournal.com]

Hm...is the mouse still looking for the Kaoru? Because if they are, I'd hit that. :D Playing the uke of the twins could be fun XD *never had to play the part before, really*

Hm...Squall Leon is a thought...though I wouldn't know how to make him funny XD I'd have to think on that a bit~

Good suggestions though~ And I know what you mean about the content thing. Geeeh~

[soc_puppet]

Dunno. You can always e-mail and check.

Squall's Leon's reactions to most of the stuff at Camp would be hilarious :D He'd be all "I don't know what's going on, but I don't like it." And stuff.

Thanks ^_^ I'd better get back to attempting to finish that app now. I want to have the first draft done today and the to-be-beta'd draft done hopefully sometime tomorrow. *knocks on wood*

...ahaha, you have that internal app vote bar too? I keep dithering beteween doing a completly new app and sending in an third try app that I keep having isues with.

(Also, hi, adding you. Since I don't know why I haven't already.)

[soc_puppet]

Yup. And that's a good way to put it, too. Stealing the phrase now ♥ Anyway, I know this draft isn't gonna get in, but by the to-be-beta'd draft I might have hope.

(Adding you back then :D)

[lyzzle.livejournal.com]

I WILL BETA. :DDDDD

[soc_puppet]

Yay ^___^ ♥♥♥

[lyzzle.livejournal.com]

As if you thought for a minute that I wouldn't. ♥~

[soc_puppet]

It's good to double-check and all that ;) Must crank out one more paragraph...

[lyzzle.livejournal.com]

YOU CAN DO EEEEEET!

[op-longshot.livejournal.com]

(un-lurk go)

I'll beta, if you need more firepower.

[soc_puppet]

:D Coincidentally, I was actually planning on asking you, so yay! I'll probably be friends-locking the app Just In Case, so. *friends* (Oh, and if you're interested in who I'll be trying for, I'm the first anonymous who replied to Sora-mun on page three of the announcement post ^.~)

[op-longshot.livejournal.com]

Oh, shiny! XD Sure - and good luck! (I want to app as Riku eventually, but I'm already going to sleep at 3:00 AM as is X_x and school blocks LJ.)

[soc_puppet]

Thank you :3 (I feel your pain. Also, I probably shouldn't be enabling you, but have you tried megaproxy.com yet? Worked at my high school.)

[op-longshot.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I use that too! Unfortunately it doesn't get into friendslocked entries, but most of CFUD is open, soo...

[soc_puppet]

Very useful site, yes. Didn't know that about locked entries, though; my school allowed LJ.

[op-longshot.livejournal.com]

Lucky. Times like this I hate my school's Internet. They blocked FileFront (no game downloads) and even blocked Yahoo for a time (wtf?).

[soc_puppet]

*shrugs* They didn't let us download stuff, so it balances out, I suppose. And someone did once hack into the system and block the school's homepage :D;;

[op-longshot.livejournal.com]

I need to do that! XD
