Stared adding a slightly edited version of the Port Phobos thread, will finish tomorrow after sleep. Defined the events as happening in 2015, the year after
the war, making it the second annual PPI.

Edit: Or it would be had I not forgotten about the page size limits and ended up destroying everything I'd already put in. Right finish
re-editing off line, and break it into two sections this time.

I was working on that one, too, although I had kept it set in 2014 so it wouldn't mess up my character's continuity...
Want me to e-mail you a copy of what I'd done?

Sure. Exams and my last classes are over so I've finally got time to work on other stuff again, untill the thesis needs to be written, but that's 8-9
months away.
My reasoning for setting the thread in 2015 is that a number of the pieces seem to assume that it isn't the first time the Port Phobos has happened, but I
didn't want to push it too far into the future.

I too was working off the priciple the story was in 2015. I.E. It's the first Invitational, but the second time the event happened given the back story
posted. (Greenpeace's implanted wireless neural interface was installed Xmas 2014.)

Finished the re-edit, split it into two parts. If more scenes are added, they, and the last scene in part 2 will have to be put in a part 3. Part 2 is at the
edge of the size limit.

That's so awesome! And there's some stuff in there that I thought wasn't going to be included, like Ben and Gina's little 'discussion'
with Lebia and the Engergizer Bunny incident... BTW: who get's to lay official claim to that one? The Professor? Or shall we say that it was one of Lilo
Sibbit's constructs?

Eh? I too thought that the 'discussion' wasn't going to be included, given that I appologised for letting Lebia get
control of me for that and disavowed it. Given that the starting event wasn't in the storyline I don't think it should be included.
The Energiser Bunny bit might want to go on as an epilogue, and the bit I posted that inspired it should take its place.

Really? *checks thread* oh, it was disavowed wasn't it. Well, I'll have to edit that.

Yes
*ducks*
I input them manually, but I've got a horrid little perl script that randomly picks them.

Hrm... Wonder if you can rig it so with a globally recognized keystroke it'll automatically enter a random qoute as opposed to going through the trouble of
having to select-cut-and-paste the damn thing.

Ok, I think that fixes it. Left in Gina and Atropos' interaction, removed everyone talking about Lebia's response to it. I think. I couldn't
find Lebia's response (IIRC Lebia threatening Gina with the Patrol) in either my copy or the one on the wiki. And moved the energizer bunny bits to the
end, added the inspiration bit in their place, which I managed to miss the first time.
Fnord, I don't suppose there's any way to force the wiki to wrap text lines at a certain length is there? Aside from manually entering \ every N
chars that is.
And BA, it might be possible, I don't know enough about XP to do it at the moment.

Use the , or tags if you want to preserve line formatting. It's not the best solution but there aren't really any *good* solutions out there.

http://fnord.sandwich.net/fenwiki/doku. ... l tellvia]Stellvia Portal updated. One story added to the list (even though the story itself isn't yet on the Wiki), one character description expanded (everybody knew that the "Helen" I've mentioned here on occasion is Noah's daughter, right?), and one surprise (that's primarily for Bob's benefit)...
Edit: Oh, and I also created http://fnord.sandwich.net/fenwiki/doku. ... chars:eimi]that page that's primarily for Bob's benefit. Considering the unique circumstances regarding that, I'm only going to link to it from the Stellvia Portal page.
