No New PT Article?

I was looking forward to a new "Beyond Contact" article in the PT this week, but Wednesday has come and gone and nothing. Did we fall behind schedule, Gil? Or was the fiction update on the CoV site supposed to count for this week?

Yep, we're alternating weeks for now. Next PT should be out next Wednesday.

He just wants all the critics to have time to rest up from their last critique of his article.


(that was the biggest mess, talk about NITPICKING!)

I see. Thanks for letting us know, Gil. Should be a fun set up.

*waits for the nitpickers to start tearing apart Gil's post*

I'm surprised there isnt a thread in the CoV forum tearing the CoV fiction apart!

C'mon, Gil. You're slacking if your villianous articles can't generate the hate.

So are you saying the heroes are meaner than the villains?


Too many alts to list.

The problem I had with this week's article is that it left me feeling...empty. I was really hoping for more substantial history this time rather than a vacuous cavity of prose. There was no style to it. There was no color. There was no substance at all.

Gil, I try to be supportive. I really do. But, this week's article was far too wanting. I hope to see better next week.

Personally, I thought that this week's piece was an elegant statement that used no more words than it had to. I commend Gilgamesh on his conciseness, though I don't think that he should lean on this approach too much in the future. Bravo, Gil!

Please tell me it is Issue 5 related Gil?

Yes, this week's PT article was right to the point, not too wordy, really showed us everything it had. I'm only sorry it wasn't longer. I read it so fast!


 

Posted

Yeah, I personally think this week's PT was the best ever. I've done James Ellroy one better and deconstructed the written language to its true essence. Pulitzer, here I am...

Being last weeks article was on the City Rep....what's the next one going to be?

Hmm...gonna throw money on Officer Wincott in the Hollows.


 

Posted

I'm hoping its Flux. Then we can have a zone event where his cover is blown by the article and Outcasts pour over PCPD in KR trying to get to him. Maybe we'll even get to see Blue Steel use that big badge of his...or maybe we can hurl the giant penny!

Not nature and no reference to a season but it had the cut. I think it should at least get partial credit.

You spelled "Pulitzer" and "deconstructed" wrong.




(Joking, I'm joking, this was a joke, please don't follow up with eight pages of posts discussing my psychological shortcomings this time... )

Fixed---just for you and my *peace* of mind.

Okay, fixed again. Grrr!

Why is it that emails and message board posts are so conducive to errors. Perhaps just typing too fast and not taking the time to read the stuff over?

Really makes me grit my teeth.
