Proper MI5 please - need to know what geographical divisions they operate under and what a Greater London section head would be called.

"Sir"? or anything he wants to be called?

Dagnabbit - I feel a right numpty now (keep those filthy thoughts under wraps please)

In work, I have my IE Window small and out of the way - it cut the View Profile Option out completely.

Found it now.

Thanks Stasis.

Can't find a View Profile option - Buddy list just selects them, doesn't give me a choice of anything.

Very weird.

Ok I'm confused. I've added several buddies, but seem to have no way of linking directly to them or their excerpts?

Anyone help?

I don't know anything about the Boer war!!!!!"[/i]

Erm.... Winston Churchill was involved in it. And that's the limit of my knowledge. Completely. I don't know anything else other than that. And English. And how to type. And how to use a computer. And how to use a forum. And how to waffle..... etc.

I'll be starting tomorrow evening. After work. So about 7pm or so.

Meh.

Damn my misunderstanding brain.

Glad you got what you were looking for though.

Does this help?

Well this is it.

The brave men and women who have volunteered for this suicide.... erm I mean, this heroic mission must surely be prepared by now.

Fortune and glory await all. Some of us may not return, but by jove, you will have LIVED.

With less than 24 hours to go now, your brave sacrifice will be remembered by all and sundry.

Insert Appropriate Deity speed chaps and chappettes.

Only from the heroes side - didn't have villain chat enabled, which means I probably missed a fair bit.

Oh my god you guys are gullible. Did it not occur to you that this was completely ridiculous? Something like this will NEVER happen, but it goes to show how easy it is to convince so many people that it is! I haven't laughed harder at a videogame in months. It got even better when it spread to Defiant too! Evidently both servers are as gullible as each other!

I'd like to extend special thanks to Jumanji who played along to the end, and even started this thread for me. Special mention also goes to Siru Jim who played along fantastically as well.

We got you guys good.

Edit: Checked thread, actually loads of people seemed to believe you.... weird that.

Seems kinda screwy that the devs would do this change on a live Server prior to doing it on test and would do it without making any kind of public announcement.

Bit early for April fools day...

Good point, I was thinking of this charming young lady who's been by my side since security level 1. That should be clear enough

Mine's called "An Infinite Amount Of Monkeys."

For now.

[/ QUOTE ]

It's not going to be "The Complete Works of William Shakespeare", is it?

Because that'd be cool.

Anyone writing as Laurel K Hamilton.....?

Y'know, just so I can completely avoid the pron.... ahem, I mean the deep vampire/werewolf/any other bestiality theme you'll be writing?

I'm on as, go on, guess....

Myopic Aardvark of course.

Mine's got the working title of 'Dark Heart', but I may change that to one of the chapter titles.

It's difficult to think of a title of a story about a villain named Dr Apocalypse, without it sounding overly pantomime-ish.

[/ QUOTE ]

Will there be a chapter on how he qualified from medical school and slew the graduating class?

Mine is called Future's End. Completely unoriginal, I know, but I swear it doesn't involve any time travel whatsoever. At all.

There will be a great deal of satanic themed politics in it (at least that's the plan).

[/ QUOTE ]

Does it involve a planetoid with a large sealed pit, under which is Satan himself? Things are fine, until a Rather Intelligent man and a Chavette show up in a blue box and unwittingly help to set him free?

Sounds like oodles of fun.

[/ QUOTE ]

If it does end up like that, please feel free to bludgeon me to death. It's firmly science fiction - no supernatural entities at all.

Question, as I CBA to visit the site from work...


What's to stop people cheating and start their novels already?

Honesty?

Im gona do it..

[/ QUOTE ]

No..... don't jump.... write a novel instead

Although my idea isn't COH/COV related, I'll still be popping a link to it on here once it's done.

Facts in my favour actually being able to do this:

1. Work is quiet right now. I'm supposed to be testing defects in a system that is already deployed. I think we all know how optional fixing bugs are once something has been launched.

2. I've had this idea for years now - I'd written a short story version of it, but now I feel it's time to add more cliches into the mix. Note to self: Devil Worshippers may have been fun once, but turning them into Telvarian Mine Inspectors does nothing to level their impact.

3. I've just got a handy new keyboard ( Linky ) which I now find really comfortable to type on.

So I think I'm ready - like Dreamweaver, I have the coffee on standby and unlike Stasis, too much chocolate will kill me.

Ready to start. Wish November would role around.

Dan Brown uses Plot By Numbers. The thought of originality has never occured to him.
