The Conqueror is 68 pages in Word, and that's at size 10 Ariel.

Indeed. However, there is a slight problem with your comparison: Conqueror is finished, and E:JF is not. I'm roughly 2/3 of the way through the story.

That's true, but if Conquerer is 6 pages on HERE and Conquistar is already 12, how many is THAT in Wordpad?

And I use Times New Roman

I had a story that was over sixteen chapters once. Each chapter was around four pages. *beams*

I don't even remember...

I don't even remember how long my stories are... if I ever had any saved, they died in the harddrive crash, so there's no way to check, now. D'oh.

Anyhoo, quantity over quality. And better sorry than safe. Always never forget to remember these phrases.

D'oh!

D'oh! Sorry, Falcon... I just meant anyone can write multiple pages of stories, but not just anyone can write good stories. Brag about the quality, not the quantity.

More pages could just mean that the audience was a bunch of spammin' newbs. Or that the Author has really good hooks and writes 4 chapters every blue moon or so ;p.

Can we all get back on topic here? Coppertop, Ducky trusted you and that is why she made you the temporary mod of the war tavern. So dont abuse your powers by spamming a lot yourself. If you have a problem with anything open another Thread but dont use this one to Spam around. And i think all the positive comments are getting to your head. Your an ok writer but your not the best in the world, and like Bluez said, its not quantity but quality that matters. Please stop this useless discussion.

Y'know...

Y'know, I have been seeing a lot more posts from Coppertop lately, even in other threads here. I don't really think it's an abuse of power so much as she reads something and feels she has to contribute to it. I don't see much wrong with that as long as it doesn't get out of hand (which I'm not going to say whether has or hasn't, since I don't read the other topics).

Copper's not a fooish n00b, so she doesn't post pie and holy spam.

Except where it's asked for. ¬_¬

Slay is right, regardless of what you folks think or say. Cut the chatter already. I don't care if it's a temporary moderator spamming or if it's BOB_ALLEN spamming. In fact, the temporary moderator spamming is worse than BOB_ALLEN spamming, because I expect moderators to perform their duties without the excess spam. Moderators are here to set an example, not to spam.

And if you spam, at least do it in Comedy Cafe. Don't wreck the thread of an incredible, excellent writer who uses detail and creativity very expertly. Thank you.

If it falls its probably because the author does not care enough to finish it. Spamming is against the rules. Thnx

Since the last chapter was posted, impertinent discussions about font sizes, story length, and user personality have taken place. You must limit further discussion in this thread to the story and the author in relation to the story. Going off-topic beyond this post may invoke the Post of Doom. To help this topic get back on topic, it is also advised that you do not comment about this post or the nature of the Post of Doom; if you must, do that via private messaging. Stay on topic from here on out.

risking my neck...

When's Wildie getting back with the next chapter? The audience waits expectantly, and I think my brain hurts again.

She awaits inspiration.

Don't rush the creative process. She's probably awaiting further inspiration, if I know her. I just hope this isn't my fault. Sorry if it is.

Well, this was an interesting thread while I was gone.

*Medusa-glares to everyone*

It's okay. Thanks to all who warned against spamminess. I'm thinking that Derby's appearance duly frightened you all enough?

Have some Rigelion synth-ale carrot beer and stay out of deceased topics, kay? Wildie, I'm sure, will revive it if she feels inspired.

Heyhey, Wildie.

Glad to see this topic hasn't fallen beyond the point of no return in the WT's archives.
