Tidying up fic comms and ficathons

xfirefly9xI've been working on my fic comms ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
10_fics and 20_fics today. Have altered minor things in the layout and profiles and I'm currently working through and changing the claims list at 10_fics from a list into table format.
It's taking longer than I thought it would but I've been taking breaks here and there and reading fic from the awesome ladies ficathon (thanks to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
odakota_rose for pointing it out to me btw). Have there been any other ficathons lately, on that note?
Questions of random for the flist:

Date: 2010-07-10 07:59 am (UTC)You have a bucket, a spaceship and a pineapple. With these items, how would you solve the apocalypse?
1. Distract everyone by throwing a pineapple at them.
2. Launch myself into space via my spaceship.
3. Use the bucket to convince an interstellar species that I'm clearly superior to them and thus have them make me their queen.
How are you today?
I have an ear infection. (>.<);;;;
But, I'm working on

*squish* That's no good!
Ficathon sounds cool. Sadly I'm not really that into Fringe (only seen ep 1 and it didn't really interest me, so I've not yet tried the rest of it - though I do have plans of trying more at some point, probs next holidays).. Good luck with the writing for that in any case.

Date: 2010-07-10 10:04 am (UTC)Oh... you should... You know I'm a Fringe nerd and probably love all of it like hell, but for all non-Fringe-fied people out there I'd say you should check it out from 2nd half of S1 on - it's going to be pretty awesome. :D And don't get me even started on S2. ;) (Though I should better recommend to watch it entirely. *lol*)

Date: 2010-07-10 08:04 am (UTC)You have a bucket, a spaceship and a pineapple. With these items, how would you solve the apocalypse? Convince aliens (who are destroying the universe) that the bucket will solve all their problems. While they are distracted, replace their weapon with the pineapple. Run like mad.
How are you today? Um, okay? It's one in the morning here, so I'm a bit sleepy, but other than that, busy, a little gloomy, a little angry (with people who constantly are jerks and get away with it and don't even care that what they're doing is wrong), but, over all, not too bad.

Date: 2010-07-10 09:40 am (UTC)Could take some persuading, that bucket thing might. But an altogether good plan, if a little insane. ;D
Mmm .. true. It was afternoon when I posted.. 7:38pm now. I'm trying to slowly shut things down - including my brain lol - so I can get to sleep around 10 or so. Not sure it's going to work that well considering I slept a little earlier, during the day. Heat does that to me sometimes.
Gloomy and angry, awww! *hugs* People suck. Did you read my rant on humanity the other day? Yeah...
no subject
Date: 2010-07-10 09:44 am (UTC)I am working with a spaceship, a pineapple, and a bucket. Sanity isn't the first thing that comes to mind when you list those three things. ;) (Besides, preventing the apocalypse calls for desperate plans!)
I did read the post (I haven't been awesome at commenting lately). *hugs back*

Date: 2010-07-10 09:48 am (UTC)Mm yes. So yeah. Again.. people are of the suck. *squish*

I'm taking the spaceship and try to find O'Neill aka McGyver. Then I give him the bucket and the pineapple and let him figure out what to do with it to solve the apocalypse. xD
How are you today?
Pretty good.... though it's a little bit too warm outside and I have to clean my room and do the dishes and laundry. -.- but hey... at least it's weekend. xD
How are you?
no subject
Date: 2010-07-10 09:43 am (UTC)O'Neill/MacGyver! Hee. That'd work. XD
Hmmm.. yeah. Bit like me today. And here. I'm pretty good.. and throughout the day it's been a bit too hot (and hell, it's winter here! *falls* I was sweating today, argh! DNW. Summer's gonna kill me.) Cleaning room.. I should do that too, though I kinda already did it yesterday and so there's not really anything I'd really actually move or clean with it today lol. So maybe I shouldn't do it. Hm. Erm. Ranting. I'll shut up.

Er...Use the spaceship to get into space with the pineapple in the bucket throw them into the center of the earth and hope that stops it. Yeah idek either.
How are you today?
Not really good to be honest :S I'm in one of those moods where I'm not happy but not sad. It's weird really. I hope I feel better when I go back to the flat tomorrow so I can write more.
no subject
Date: 2010-07-10 09:45 am (UTC):P One of the more insane ideas.
Aww! :( *hug* Those moods are... odd. Definitely. I hope you can get out of it soon too and good luck with the writing!

Date: 2010-07-10 12:30 pm (UTC)You have a bucket, a spaceship and a pineapple. With these items, how would you solve the apocalypse? I'm guessing zombie apocalypse? (what other apocalypse is there?) prick finger and bleed on pineapple (ala the soccer head from that tom hanks movie where he's on an island). whack zombies on head with bucket. use spaceship to save everyone...okay not so mcgyuver after all
How are you today? trying to not freak out about my huge lack of self esteem re: japan/japan major

How are you today? Pretty good. A little hungry, waiting for Mom to call me when lunch is ready. You? ♥

Date: 2010-07-10 03:52 pm (UTC)You have a bucket, a spaceship and a pineapple. With these items, how would you solve the apocalypse? Use the bucket to pick up the universe's surviving dna, and use the spaceship to bring it to Doctor Who. I would share the pineapple with the doctor and then save the world.
How are you today? 20 years, and 34 days old and fabulous. :D

Song of the moment? Save Me, San Francisco, by Train
You have a bucket, a spaceship and a pineapple. With these items, how would you solve the apocalypse? No towel? *sigh* Alright, give one pineapple to the aliens, then explain to them that even if they travel the rest of the universe in the spaceship, they will not find anything as yummy as a pineapple If that fails I'm throwing the bucket at them.
*snort* Honestly, I've really got nothing on this 'solving the apocalypse' thing.
How are you today? Ehhh, sleepy. Today's been going ridiculously slow. I got up, got dressed, missed an appointment because I was so tired from yesterday (got up at 4 am, on the road all day. ick.) so then I've pretty much been lazing around doing nothing. I even took a nap.

Date: 2010-07-17 04:17 pm (UTC):D
Train, nice. I... think I have one of their songs.. :P
Yeah, sadly no towel this time.
Tis an interesting plan.. I like the use of the pineapple.
Sleeeepy. That'll be me in the morning. Gonna get maybe 7 hrs sleep max, if I go to bed right after this comment.. which clearly I won't as I am me and me is not that responsible. :P

Date: 2010-07-18 05:43 am (UTC)Was it Drops of Jupiter? That's the one song of theirs that everybody seems to have :D
That's very sad. I hear you should always carry a towel ;)
Interesting pretty much means 'oh god, oh god we're all gonna die', doesn't it?
Aww, did you get at least a little bit of rest? That whole sleep deprived thing does not make for good times.
no subject
Date: 2010-07-21 09:44 am (UTC)Indeed. I quite like my towel.
:P Little bit.
Got rest, yep. Enough to stay awake through the day, anyway. Wasn't feeling quite amazing, but I'm good long as I remain open-eyed and non-sleeping-in-class-ness stuff.
