Thanks for the helpful edits Humboldt; together, you and Banning really have improved the story's grammar. I was in Belgium yesterday, so I was unable to respond to your message. Feel free to correct anything you feel uncomfortable about in future; I trust you with my story wholeheartedly.

I'll have a look at some of the points you mentioned and make some decisions. If I write anything good, I'll make sure to send it to you again.

PS - Did you spot any tense mistakes? That was my first time writing in present tense. I feel like a past tense might have slipped into somewhere it isn't supposed to be. I'd be very grateful if you could quickly scan the story for these types of errors. Thanks again.

Location Location
I'm from the US (I spent most of my childhood there), but I moved to the UK last year to go to high school; we go on various field trips around Europe all the time, as you don't need a visa(/expensive hassle) to go to other countries in the Eurozone.

I'm planning to study law in Uni and one of the exam subjects for law is History, so the convenient visa-less travel is quite useful. We can easily travel around and visit famous historical sites.

Europe's history is especially interesting; we went to see WW1 battlefields in Belgium, memorials and cemetaries where soldiers were buried like Thiepval and Ypres. I learnt about the World War 1 and 2 at school in the US, but re-studying it in the UK and seeing the European perspective on the wars is really interesting and different. We also went to other places of significance to the wars in the UK, such as Bletchley Park, where the German codes were broken and gave the Allies an advantage in WW2. Of course, inspired by the release of the film The Imitation Game.

What about you? Do you live in Humboldt, Humboldt?

My blog
Haha, thanks. It's seemed to have spawned a semi-discussion on Stephen King. I'm pretty open about the fact that he's the most likely canidate to be my favorite author, although people seem to be missing the point. Oh well, like you said, the post wasn't about me.

I quite enjoyed your response on the works of Joe Hill. I've never read anything he's written, but I've seen Horns, the film that was based on one of his novels. I actually didn't know about his relation to Stephen King until after I'd seen the movie. Since, then, I'd been meaning to pick up one of his books, but I suppose I never got around to it.

The guy in my new profile picture is actually me. I made it in photoshop, meaning to create something to catch people's eye. It obviously worked with you.

Re: Contest
Well, I've read an article about the possible symbolism behind possessions and various demon stories/movies (although I can't find it now unfortunately), so I paid attention to possible symbolism in your story.

I just had a couple, small problems with the story. I wasn't offended by harsh or much darker content unless it is used tastelessly (Cry Baby Lane), and I think your story handled the darker, almost NSFW subjects rather well. AGrimAuxiliatrix1 (talk) 19:25, July 24, 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for those edits on Spiderland. I've always been good with grammar, but I can get a little confused on punctuation. If I'm not sure what to use I go with a semicolon, lol. I guess I just like them. They make sentences look more fun. Umbrello (talk) 03:13, July 27, 2015 (UTC)

Re:
I don't know. I've been thinking through a lot and trying to be 100% sure that I want to go through with it when I kind of had an epiphany: I should just act however the hell I want to act, regardless of the gender roles society enforces.

I mean, I still have desires to change, obviously, but after all this effort and talk and a bit of counseling, I've kind of realized that society is incredibly stupid, and perhaps I should break the norms of society instead of changing myself for society.

In conclusion, I don't quite know yet. AGrimAuxiliatrix1 (talk) 21:05, July 27, 2015 (UTC)

Yes, I can see that
I guess they do have their differences. Looking forward to streaming it illegally this afternoon (unless you can give me a link or something..) I'm a little short of money at the mo.

Ooh - a NSFW contest might be fun, but I have a feeling it would bring out some monstrous creations which I'd rather not see in my nightmares. Judging is stressful if you are short of time though. And I completely agree with what you said about the recent contest judging - I also noticed Banning gave a few eighties... hmm. Grim usually reviewed first, putting the burden of the decision on him.

I also feel that some of the scores weren't justified. They certainly gave very helpful feedback in all the areas they mentioned on the contest blog, but didn't explain the score they gave. There were four categories they were judging based upon, and I thought they would give a score out of 25 marks for each, then add up the total. I don't know if that's what actually happened, but they didn't explain how they gave the score clearly. (I guess it's a little late to ask now)

Anyway, whatever the mechanism involved, credit to them for sacrificing so much time reviewing our stories. And congratulations on getting second place! I'm going to be reading all the winning entries either today or sometime this week, so I'll have a look for you!

Re
And I certainly see some similarities between the chapter and your story, notably the period of sickness. I honestly found it out of my league to criticize your story (I'm only a high-schooler), but I did my best.

And yes, I fucking did watch the fucking Devil's Rejects. And it was so fucking twisted. And that fucking scene with the lady's head squashed by the truck on the road... one of the worst fucking images stuck in my head to date. I regret watching that one first before House of a Thousand Corpses - I'll check that out sometime later though, as I alreadly know what's going on. You were right - the acting is superb - the action scenes are tense as hell. I found the ending quite satisfying, but I couldn't help feeling bad for them when the flashbacks played.

Thanks for the recommendation!

Hey Humboldt,

How've you been? I have published another story if you want to give it a read, Spirit Bottles.

Anyway, just wanted to drop by and say hi more than anything else. Hope you are working on another great story.

JohnathanNash (talk) 04:30, August 1, 2015 (UTC)

I'm sorry to hear about your family. I hope everyone gets better and is doing well soon. Although it may seem hard to be positive in times like that, it will help everyone who is involved. When things seem to be getting at their worst try going for a walk to clear your mind, if you can, it may be hard with a wife who needs foot surgery.

There hasn't been anymore snowstorms, thankfully. But the kids are so young they are happy to find other ways to make a mess. My son is two and my daughter is four, so they are at the ages where they are into playing hard, but it just happens to make a mess of things. The main thing my son does it rearrange the furniture.

That's crazy with the heat and fires. I live in Florida so I can understand about the heat, but it has been raining for the past couple of weeks. It's funny, I moved to Clearwater about three years ago and haven't been here for a full year, ever. The most time I've spent here was the first year I lived here and that was for about six months. However, I just quit my last job because I was traveling for 90% of the year and only being home for one or two days before leaving again.

That was a bit of a crazy move because I didn't have anything set up. But luckily I was able to find something quick and it is only five minutes away from my house. I suppose I should update my profile, but I just don't feel like it yet.

Anyway I hope your family gets better quickly and you do well.

Best,

JohnathanNash (talk) 20:05, August 1, 2015 (UTC)

Hello, dear.
How are you? I personally hope that you are doing well. I did hear that you have some family difficulties, and I truly hope that all eventually turns out better.

I'd like to ask if you, perhaps, had any requests for one of my future profile pictures. I plan on keeping the one I have right now for quite a while, but I would like to have some on stand-by for later. You seem to take interest in them when I change them, so I thought you might like an input.

Thank you, and I once again hope that the problems of you and your family eventually turn out alright. AGrimAuxiliatrix1 (talk) 00:03, August 3, 2015 (UTC)

A Couple Questions....
Hey there Humby! How goes it in the fair state of California? I had a couple of couple that I wanted to ask you, if that is perfectly all right.

First of all, is it okay if I top ten you? I don't know if you've read this blog post or not, but in case you haven't, I'll catch you up to speed. I am starting a new personal project in which I will reach out to certain writers on this wikia and give them their individual top ten lists for their best stories (provided that they have ten stories or over and they are of at least decent qaulity). A lot of people wanted to have a top ten list based on your stories, so is it okay if I do this in the form of a blog post? I've already done it for Emp and I thought you would be okay with it, but I just wanted to make sure that I have your approval before I do anything of this nature.

Also, this second one is a bit more selfish, but, er... can you give me your thoughts on this pasta of mine? I haven't gotten as much feedback on it as I would've liked, and I would love to hear your opinion.

Thanks!

RE:RE: Questions
Well, I'm glad things are going well for you. I live in the terrible state of North Carolina (Virginia is right above me, so you weren't off by far), which is an area that seems to be filled with general idiocy and a place that I personally hate (my personal hell, if you will,lol). It is my dream to one day move out of this state and go North, preferably to a secluded area near a larger city.

I'll have your top ten list up one of these days. I am currently working on AGrimAuxilitrix's list, and you are next in line.

I give you my thanks in advance for looking into my pasta. I wish you luck on your montage (Oh yeah and by the way... "America! Fuck yeah! Coming in to save the motherfucking day yeah!" and also...

Thanks for your advice! I'm mostly going to fix the clunky writing and awkward phrasing. I feel as if the pasta has been out for too long to add in anything plotwise, thanks again! (=

Re: Would you do me the honor of reviewing my montage blog?
I'd like to, but right now, I'm going to have to say that I'm unable to. School just began, and I'm already being pelted with projects and work (added onto my regular life, of course), so my visits to this site are going to be less frequent and reviews of any sorts will slow down (even more than they already are). I'm sorry. I probably won't be on here reviewing things or particularly doing much for quite a while, so unless you still want me to do this a month from now (maybe a little less), I won't be able to get to it.

Sure, I can do that. I do ask one thing. Do you mind reminding me, because I can forget.

Respect
I don't think I've ever stated it, but I wanted to tell you that I respect you as a writer and a person. I was nosing around the activity feed and saw that you requested one of your stories to be removed from the Pasta of the Month Nominations on the grounds of not wanting to win two months in a row so as not to hog the site; I especially respect you for that. I hope to reach your level of writing one day and to have our stories duke it out for Pasta of the Month (that happened last month, but my story wasn't near the quality of yours, I want to provide a true contender story that equals the bar that you have set). I guess that's kind of an odd statement to make, but you've given me a challenge by making such good stories, therefore I wish to give you a challenge by making such good stories. Anyway, proud of you. Buckle up  I'm going to be popular  06:32, September 10, 2015 (UTC)


 * Thanks, I'll check it out :) I don't have a Facebook anymore (I got tired of all the drama on my friend's feed), but I could make a new one for that. Never quit writing, oh and if it isn't too much trouble, please let me know when you have The Gym Teacher Sequel put up on the wiki (I heard you were making one). Buckle up   I'm going to be popular  18:13, September 10, 2015 (UTC)

RE: Sons of Odin
Hey. I had plans to do it a long time ago as a collaboration. Unfortunately all my contacts were unavailable and it went to the back burner. I would like still do the project, but I'm going on vacation soon and won't be able to reach out to everyone again until after that.

So, I still plan on narrating it, it might just be a while depending on everyone's schedules. Thanks for asking though!

Story
Lycan, I really enjoyed your story. I hope you write more stories like this. The ending was well executed and I could not ask for a better ending. also, I was wondering where you get your inspiration to write such stories?

Just checking in
Congrats brother on all your success around here lately. You're one of the best writers on this site, and you certainly deserve every bit of it. I haven't spoken to you in a while, so I just wanted to take a second to check in and see how you've been.

I've got a new story up, I sent you a link a few days ago, would love some of your feedback. Plus I have a new Tobit up too, would love for you to check that out.

Well, hope all is going well, talk to you soon!

Hey, you taught me how to do it
You ask a lot of people who enjoyed your previous stories to vote for your pasta for PotM, so I think I might as well return the offer to you as well. Snaketongue nominated The Magician's Game for PotM, and I'd like to see what you think. Hopefully this does not come across as rude or pushy, and thank you. AGrimAuxiliatrix1 (talk) 19:31, September 16, 2015 (UTC)

Hoping for the best
Sounds like you have a very full plate. Sending my best wishes for a speedy recovery for your family, and all the best for your writing and such. You're an amazing author, and I see only the best down the road for you.

Banningk1979 (talk) 00:19, September 18, 2015 (UTC)

You are heard
Brother,

I wanted to take a moment and spin you a line personally, regarding my recent proposal for a Jeff writing contest. I understand that we all have concerns about this, trust me, I do too. I am sort of staking my reputation around here on this idea, and if it were to go south, I could easily wind up being known as one of the bad admins...badmins, there ya go, on this site.

I understand this is a risky proposal, and I have considered those risks. You are probably one of the few people that I have written personally on this matter, and that is a reflection on the vast amount of respect I have for you as both a writer and a friend on this site. Your support would mean a lot, but if that isn't possible, at least allow me to try and put your mind at ease on the matter.

First of all, this isn't my contest. I am doing this for the community, which is exactly why I turned it over to a week long community vote. Honestly, the project was more of less yellow-lit already, but due to the nature of the content, and the history that this pasta has in our community, I wanted to go a step further and give the entire CP Wiki a voice on this. You can cast your opinion officially as well, right here: Jeff Proposal.

Secondly, I am confident that this can be done right. If the contest is green-lit by way of community support, then it will be made beyond clear in the contest rules that only one story will go on this site. Anyone who enters will have to understand that there is a huge chance that their story will not see the light of day on this wiki, and honestly, I think that can be managed.

Also, please understand that this isn't about spin-offs. Spin-off stories are not allowed here, and neither will any Jeff spin story. This is a re-write, telling the original story again with quality writing.

Finally, a large part of our very nature is to delete and remove stories. People are used to that, and they don't go nuts when it happens most of the time. There are always a few that pitch a fit, but that happens with all works, not just Jeff related.

In closing, the only thing I can ask of you, is that if you hold me to half the esteem that I hold you, that you trust me on this. If it blows up in my face, that is my cross to carry, and I'll gladly own up to any bad press that may come of this. However, if you can find it in your self to trust me on this, I would love to have your support. I would love to see what you could do with this story, as I think you are one of the people around here with the raw talent to actually take something like Jeff the Killer and spin it into gold.

If you have any questions or concerns, I would encourage you to express them to either myself, the b'crats, or the community as a whole. Nothing is green-lit quite yet, and your opinion matters to me very much. You can chat me up here or hit me on Skype, it's all good. I honestly believe that we can create something awesome with this, something to really put a new and exciting energy into our site, and I would love to know that you have my back.

Thank you for all you do around here,

Hey buddy,

Just wanted to give you some kudos on your comment. It was perfectly summed up on what this should be. Also how is your family, hopefully all is well.

JtK Remake
Hey Humboldt, I saw the message you left on Jay's page, and I think you are taking the contest a bit out of context. The contest idea was proposed over at the blog I recently wrote, Why Jeff the Killer isn't a classic. If you read this and some of the comments, maybe you'll understand where the idea is coming from. Just letting you know. MrDupin (talk) 22:45, September 20, 2015 (UTC)


 * Uni hasn't started yet, no. And there are no literature classes either, although that's probably for the best. We had to memorise a bunch of stuff and we did no writing at all on our own. After 10 years of literature classes one would think that we would have been given the opportunity to write something.


 * How are you man? I haven't seen you in a long time. Have you got anything brewing?


 * And to close that contest subject, I agree 100% that all the rewrites (that meet the QS) should be accepted, not just one. MrDupin (talk) 23:29, September 20, 2015 (UTC)


 * Congrats on the wins. You've certainly been busy lately. And a collab? I'm looking forward to reading it. Anyway, have a nice day man. MrDupin (talk) 23:55, September 20, 2015 (UTC)

Re:
The conversation was closed because voting was over (as per the original post) and we have to tally up the votes, we can't do that if people are still going back and forth and using key trigger words like support/oppose. We operate on a specific time zone if you recall so we're trying to keep everything aligned. EmpyrealInvective (talk) 02:02, September 26, 2015 (UTC)

RE: Stuff
No hard feelings man, I may have overreacted a bit too.

Yeah, I see what you're saying, that is a bummer. I would feel terrible too. Sharing ideas around is always dangerous, as someone might pick it up. Although I wouldn't go hard on Crazywords, he just thought the idea was cool and gave it to Natalo. This stuff unfortunately happens, as ideas pretty much mean nothing unless you have the will to flesh it out into something complete.

Also, plagiarism is a very serious and (unfortunately) grey area. It is difficult to tell what is plagiarised, unless it's painfully obvious. To give you an example, I recently wrote a story inspired by a nightmare I had. Then, someone commented it was copied from somewhere else. I have no idea what he's talking about, but there will surely be something very similar to what I wrote out there. That doesn't mean I plagiarized someone else's work.

What I'm trying to say is, coincidences happen and they often screw us over.

Finally, James Cameron wouldn't sue you for plagiarism. He would sue you because you infringed his copyright. It would be plagiarism if you made a film called Terminate about a badass robot with a german accent sent to kill, following closely Terminator's plot and claiming it as your own.

 * It looks good, I did a minor tweak and linked the works to the words themselves just to avoid that "are there footnotes" side of me that scrolls to the bottom each time there's a number next to a word. Damn you, "House of Leaves"! Looks good, thanks for taking the initiative with this interview. EmpyrealInvective (talk) 22:05, October 1, 2015 (UTC)


 * Keep up the good work. As for me, I'll keep on printing off my stories wrapping them around a brick and throwing them through windows into publishers' offices. EmpyrealInvective (talk) 22:15, October 1, 2015 (UTC)


 * I treat the brick as an effective means for 'dumbing' them down a bit so they will bother to read my stuff. Have fun in San Fransisco. EmpyrealInvective (talk) 22:21, October 1, 2015 (UTC)

Plagiarism and Stuff
I was nosing around Mr Dupin's talk page because I was bored and saw your message about the Jeff the Killer contest, after I gave it some thought I found myself in agreement with you and decided to drop out. I just thought I'd let you know that you turned at least one person to your way of thinking on the matter. Besides, I'd rather be known as the guy that puts out original stuff than the guy that remade Jeff the Killer (assuming I won, had a pretty sick idea for him) XD

I remember the Crazywords plagiarism fiasco (I had read it on his talkpage when I was messaging him), but I had lacked context at the time. I feel really bad for you and even angry because you put out great stuff, I do like Natalo too, so I'm glad you didn't raise a stink about it with her since she didn't know, but gah, I'd like to have seen what you would have put out too.

For the most part I try to play my ideas close to my chest, but sometimes I let things slip because I get excited. I hope no more of your ideas get stolen and redistributed to others for contest use :|

By the way, I've been meaning to join that Facebook page, I've just been sort of lazy with my free time and haven't felt like creating an account. I'll get to it eventually, I've just been managing a website of 200+ users and it's a real pain at times. I didn't even want it, it just happened that way. It's super ironic, because in the past I'd jokingly told Empyre that he was crazy for Admining and that there was no way I'd ever be caught doing that XD Buckle up   I'm going to be popular  20:13, October 3, 2015 (UTC)


 * I don't want to anymore, it feels wrong. Even though the story was shit, the original person still came up with it, I'd feel pretty upset if I was them. I mean, it'd be like you, Banning, or someone else really good at writing coming along and rewriting The Endeavor making it even better than the one before (the one I made). It's kind of like another person trying to parent one of my kids (not that I have any, lol).


 * I was bitching about that in private chat to one of the other users that hangs out on this site about one of the judges in particular who didn't seem fit for it, so I hear you. Some of the judges are great choices, but first come, first serve was a very bad idea and I wish I had spoke out on it before it passed. Oh well, it's equally my fault for keeping my mouth shut. I had always intended to just change the names if my story had lost out because it felt different enough from the original Jeff that I could have gotten away with it. That does suck, but I guess everyone knows what they are getting into before hand.


 * In case you are interested in what I was going to do: this Jeff was to have grown up on a farm, ends up being picked on for being a farmer, things escalate between him and the bullies when he asks a girl that one of them likes to prom, the bullies take him to a field, beat him, dump gasoline on him to scare him and a cigarette drops from one of their mouths and sets him on fire; not as planned. After being burned this Jeff would have put make-up (way too much) on his face to cover up the burns, but even the fire wouldn't have been what made him snap, rather it would have been the realization that he would never fit in anywhere. I was even going to have a touching scene to where he came across a person who had been badly burned in an accident and talks them into accepting theirself. Oh, and he kills with farming shears, still feels different enough that I can do something with it in the future.


 * Here's the site: http://vroomvroom.freeforums.net/ I don't know if you are familiar with the video game company Bioware, but the majority of us on that forum used to frequent their off-topic forums. Back in August, Bioware gave a twelve minute warning message saying they were shutting down their off-topic and that they'd leave their other forum sections open, so I made that site and got a lot of people to show up. It certainly isn't the same, but it kept a bunch of us together at least, better than falling out of touch completely. Feel free to join, just try to use a different email and use a unique password for security reasons. I'll make a note to join your Facebook page tomorrow, it's just life has been ugh. I hope the personal issues in your life go away and that things get better for you! You are a funny person and hate it when funny people have bad things happen to them and their family, bringing humor into the world to lift the sadness from the shoulders of others is a great thing.
