Aww, he’s so cute.
Okay..
So Puppet came up with WlyWhy (which I must point out, is unpronounceable).
Or awesomesauce?
You decide!
Waylaid Writer.
How do you say ‘WlyWhy’?
W-Lie w-I?
You could pronounce it Wily Why.
I say, “Wly” like “wool-eye” but faster (w’l‘eye?), and then “why.”
Yes, Sly is actually Wily Wonka in disguise.
Har har. Puppet, check the house: there might be secret passageways leading into an underground chocolate factory.
...
Which one?
(Well, in any case, they’re both creepy. RUN!)
That’s Willy Wonka, and wily and willy are certainly not pronounced the same way. :P
After that conversation about Willy Wonka on another thread, I really don’t think Sly (Wly?) wants to be called that…
Also, my private stuff is, like, Nagasaki Moon only. SLY ARE YOU READING AHEAD ON NAGASAKI MOON? >:(
I can’t read anything you have whispered. :P
Is he reading it at all? (even on the main thread)
If I can get Sly to laugh at least once while reading it, I’ll be satisfied with my efforts.
‘WlyWhy’ is doing my head in.
And do we get to know more about WW?
I’ll reveal more information over time. Keep in mind that I won’t be working on it full time until January, so it really is a way off.
Okay. You do realise that your name sounds like WiFi?
I keep on thinking of Willy Wonka wanking whenever I see “WlyWhy”.
:|
>_< I did NOT need that picture in my head.
Thanks, Elanor. :P
:D
I told Sly this, too, don’t you worry.
And it’s not even the nice Gene Wilder!Wonka, it’s the creepy, MJ-esque, paedo, Johnny Depp!Wonka that is wanking.
;_;
Somebody make Sly change back… He’s embarrassing me. D:

It was all your fault in the first place. XP
Why’s SlyWhy embarrassing you?
Willy Wonka is nearly as scary as these forums.
Only if he’s Johnny Depp.
That was like one or two scenes. Depp-Wonka was creepy the whole time.
Let’s keep this free for feedback and support, please. :)
That’s a member who hides their status.
Yup, that’s right, someone who has chosen for their name not to appear in the online members list.
No one is posting… where is everyone?...
I’m playing Rome, but still checking in.
I can’t spam quotes on Virgil’s wall anymore! I just click “Write” and the whole thing disappears :(
Any reason?
My wall has been filthed up by your rampant Simpsons quotes.. :3
Hm. I’m unable to replicate the error on my computer, so I don’t know what I can do to help.
Also…
I do have updates planned, but I keep getting distracted by new toys/domain names. I’ll try to be more regimented—I can’t really make any promises though, because of college apps.
stupid college. Who needs it?
Evidently I do. <_<
Evidently I do. <_<
No you don’t Sly! Become a young, un-colleged millionaire like Gates.
Gates had to go to Harvard in order to meet his co-founders, however. Which is a large part of my interest in Stanford, actually. There isn’t any other place in the world with a higher concentration of future start-up founders and venture capitalists. Amazing.
Anyway…
Gates had to go to Harvard in order to meet his co-founders,
Including a man known as Al Fangor.
;_;

You’ve met us Sly. No need for any of those ivy league schools.
Not to mention Gates’ parents were very success lawyers, so he had a small personal fortune to start Microsoft with. :P
Oh fine, nerds, just ignore my AMAZING Animorphs reference.
Geeks are better than nerds any day. :P
Your Animorphs reference is stupid, because the original idea makes no sense anyway. Bill Gates got the idea for Windows from an alien? Not from the Xerox Alto, Apple LISA, or Commodore Amiga?
Geeks are better than nerds any day.
Yeah, right. Nerds all the way, people!
Yeah, right. Nerds all the way, people!
Guys! Gals! Please! Don’t you realize that as we fight here the jocks and preps gain power. We must unite or fall!
is chastised
Sorry.
Neeks unite!
Nerks unite!
(yes, yes, I’ll be unfathomably gracious and include dorks)
Is there a way to get rid of the comment character limit?
There has to be a limit, but I could up it by a degree of magnitude, if you’d like.
Its currently at 14,000 something. If you could, that’d be great.
It was at 15,000. Now it is at 150,000.
:D
Thankies.
If you ever hit the new limit, I’m going to tell you to write your novel somewhere else. xP
Heh, its a spork actually, and is about 400,000 characters (not words) long. But this helps out a lot.
It was a dark and stormy night. Sly walked down the long, lonely hallway of his expansive mansion mopping the sweat from his brow. A clap of thunder made him jump but he wouldn’t be swayed from what he had to do…
Oh wait! You said go write the novel somewhere else. My bad.
Sly walked down the long, lonely hallway of his expansive
mansionflying castle mopping the sweat from his brow.
Fixed!
Thanks SWQ! That’s what editors are for.
(unless I was writing the story of how he got the flying castle…. [imperial march])
That needs to be an NM style piece..
NM=??
@Nate: Just doing my job. As editor. :D
Is it just me, or did the font just change?
I don’t see anything odd.
Your Animorphs reference is stupid, because the original idea makes no sense anyway.
...Who cares? It’s a reference. It’s like saying Forrest Gump is a stupid film because he didn’t really meet JFK. Lordy, Dan, get a sense of humour.
Is it just me, or did the font just change?
Nope?
Hmm… OK…
Lordy, Dan, get a sense of humour.
Sometimes I think Dan is just playing the part of a wet blanket.
Let’s face it, a lot of humor is lost without a straight man so thanks for taking a bullet for us on that count Dan. ;-)
@ Nate: Ah, Nagasaki Moon. Riiiight. I totally did not see that until it was pointed out in front of my nose.
Can I go ahead and start a bunch of “General (blank)” threads? Just so it becomes more organized around here?
You probably should, although those would also get derailed.
Yeah, Puppet, I hate to agree, but…
HEYLOOKATURTLE!!!
Oooh, I once saw a mangled turtle with all its entrails strewn about. The intestine was several feet long..
Yeah, not that we’re derailed or anything…
But seriously, Sly, I don’t believe you about the order we’re displayed in. I just logged in and I’m third from the top of the (rather long) list.
Okay, yeah, I looked at the code to see what it actually is. It’s by userid. The earlier you signed up for an account the lower your user ID will be. Hence I’m pretty much always at the top of the list.
And I’m often near the bottom, because I didn’t realise the new forums were the new forums until about a week later. (Or, you know, three days.)
I’m almost always at the bottom.
There’s another thread for that, Puppet.
Automatic linkage of posted links, plz! So if you write http://www.wikipedia.org, it makes it a link.
Whatever happened to those hilarious little labels; “If you can’t use scissors, this article may not be for you” and the like?
@Puppet – yeah, but sometimes you just want to post the link to something…
Most forums (or at least Simple Machines Forum) will automatically link it, even if you don’t use the tags, though… you can do that, though, it’s what I’ve done before. Just wondering if there’s some way to make it automatically put in the tags for you.
Am I the only one having this problem?
Looks the same for me… but only on that thread.
Never mind.. I fixed it. :P
Ooh, pretty row of roses…
Hey, this is actual feedback- something that’s been annoying me for a long time but I keep forgetting to bring it up.
When you’re browsing articles by category, can you list more than one article at a time? Because it’s really annoying to click ‘older’ over and over again, especially for the less recent articles.
Yeah, that’s one of those stupid errors that I introduced a while back. I’ll try to fix that up.
Hi, Sly.
