For those of you who have been keeping up with my fanfic and actually give a rat's ass...

It appears as though there are those that feel that the title I have bestowed upon my story has not passed quality control. Well folks, in that case, I'd like some help in the naming. Kindly vote on one of the options at the top of your screen or if you can think of another, please share it. All suggestions are appreciated.

Thanks for the help.

The first option. It's always been at the beginning of the story. I just never used it for the thread title.

Manifest Destiny is a great title.

And keep up the good work!

Manifest Destiny... A bitch if you'r the one in the way.

Post by Mark S »

Well, it's been almost a week and it looks like this is the feedback I'm going to get. I think I can consider this poll at an end. No more rat's asses will be accepted. And by popular concensus...

Let the word go forth that my fanfic, the one running in the "How about another fanfic" thread, the second fanfic to start on this board I believe, will be now called

Manifest Destiny

I will edit my original post to suite but Stravo or someone will have to alter the sticky version. I have no idea if I should change the thread subject or if it would just be confusing though. I'm just a simple story teller and not knowledgable in such things.

You're just a simple storyteller trying to make his way through the universe, eh?

I'll be happy to change the sticky title, but I agree that you should not change the thread title because everyone knows that's yours.

I agree (sorry Stravo. Personal preference). We fans have not forgotten your wanderful fiction and you should knock yourself down, your fanfic is the best I've found in the whole net.

I take no offense at all...as long as you guys are reading Star Crossed as well :wink:

Mark you've got your fans, you're just lucky that you didn't get stuck with the raving loons that I call fans...they're a hard bunch to satisfy. I'm happy to be put in the same class as Mark, that's all.

Knocking myself? I didn't think I was doing that. Just changing the title. I just needed Stravo 'cause he's a mod and can edit the Sticky version. Thank you very much for the support and confidence though. The latest part should be up soon but it's coming slowly. Not really blocked per say, just haven't had the inclination to write lately.

And Stravo, is it possible for you to post without whoring your own fic? :lol: :P Kidding! Just kidding! I don't want any angry PMs, I don't want any phone calls, I don't want an SD.net Jihad against me of Stravo minions, I was joking. I am probably one of Stravo's biggest fans.

But seriously man, have some self respect. :D

Just had to get it in there again didn't you. Maybe self respect was a bad term. Maybe I should have said humility. :P

And your latest chapter was the first thing I read when I logged on. :wink:
