I have a more or less random topic I want to post, but I don't think it will take a very long OP post to introduce the topic. It should be long to be posted in Cirno's section, yet this same section seems to be the ONLY place for posting random stuff on the whole shrinemaiden site.

For starters, this post itself could go in the talk thread or something rather than being a thread of its own.

Secondly, what sort of thread is it? If it's a game, then even if it's spammy it can go in Rumia's. Otherwise, you're gonna have to explain.

Again, preferably not in an extraneous topic :V
There was something here once. Wonder what...

Read my opening post. This is like really just completely random, but also is short. So I don't know where to put in on these forums.

You shouldn't fucking post it anywhere because no one fucking cares.

If you absolutely must post it somewhere, then in the talking thread, not as its own thread.

-_- I think the topic would be best sent to the hapiness thread if it really makes you happy. Otherwise, as some guy once said,


STFU.

._. Sorry if this comes off as harsh, but I really don't think a new ava you got is worthy of a new thread.

That, or the staff is pulling another prank by making disliked/banned forum accounts into puppet accounts to bother people with.

To note, I am both html-saving and screenshotting this post just in case it gets 'unapproved' or deleted.

Yeah or maybe it was a misguided attempt at letting someone who was permabanned one last chance?  Not everything is a conspiracy ::)

Thanks for assuming malice before the fairly simple and obvious explanation that we unbanned him.

Video Gamer VMLV: Please come see me after class.



It has come to the staff's attention that you've taken your last shot at returning to the site (which, if you recall, you promised the MotK staff that you wouldn't screw up, and spent it creating pointless threads asking about where you can post other pointless threads, and generally being a bad poster. Now, by all rights, the MotK staff would be perfectly justified in just booting you off the site again, permanently this time. But in their infinite wisdom and mercy, they have elected to give you one last chance.

That means it's Snowball Challenge time!

Now, to make the festival more interesting yet, you are being granted a special mercy that is shown to few: an option of challenges. Three options. If you fail in the one you choose, you'll be permabanned again. If you succeed, though, you'll still get your chance at re-integrating into the MotK community. And here are your three choices!

1. Inspired by your enlightening post here, your task is to rewrite important American historical events as if Cirno had been president at the time. 5,000 word maximum, with proper writing technique: that means spelling, grammar, indentation of paragraphs, and citations for bonus points. You shall be graded on historical accuracy based on your own experiences, and your own speculation as to what would have happened had Cirno actually been President. Among the more interesting picks for events include the passing of the Sedition Act of 1798, the passing of the Sherman Act of 1890, and the Annexation of Hawaii in 1898, though you are by no means limited to these alone, as they are merely suggestions.

or

2. Inspired by this, write a Syaoran x Reimu fic under 5000 words that turns into a modern parable on how free market economies are inherently unethical, with the condition that they realize they're totally wrong for each other and break up. Li Meiling's inclusion is not optional, and bonus points are to be rewarded for the inclusion of Nanoha Takamachi absolutely thrashing them all, eventually leading Reimu to conclude that true freedom can only be achieved through Stalinist economic planning.

or

3. Inspired by the general theme of NaNoWriMo, you are to rewrite Wuthering Heights using Touhou characters. The suggested route is to star Marisa as Catherine, who can't decide between Alice (Heathcliff) or Patchouli (Edgar). At some point, you must include shoutouts to Franz Kafka's Metamorphosis, preferably in the form of Sakuya, the bold maid who seems oddly indifferent to Heathcliff's angsting, probably because her proleterian sensibilities make her purer and more humane. Again, 5,000 words maximum.

If your submission does not meet our approval and you do not put the effort into this that we expect, then you automatically lose. Remember, this is your last chance. You have five days (or 120 hours) to get this done. Good luck!
