Re: The Green Man
I took some inspiration from several sources and made a somewhat heavy revision of The Green Man.

https://www.scribd.com/doc/264876678/The-Green-Man

Some things I was initially trying to convey didn't come out as well as I had hoped in the original story. And among them was that "The Doctor" and "Nathan" were two different characters with the same body. "The Doctor" was essentially everything Nathan wanted to be. So any time the story is talking about his dreams, or his officialities, it would be set as "The Doctor"

But Nathan's most human moments were the ones were "The Doctor" is more of a mask. I added a bit more of this in the second draft, (Seen in that link up there,) but I'm not really sure if it comes through.

It also was supposed to have at least a subtle red herring for a watchful eye. With the description being the friend dying, the mention of his friend being forgotten, and this whole thing being set next to a graveyard. I kinda hoped that at least one person would assume that his friends would be the threat of the plot, and that the Green Man in question would be a surprise.

I realized after posting the link that I still hadn't completely fixed the capitalization issue for "The Doctor" "The doctor" and "the Doctor," but at the very least, it's supposed to be "The Doctor" from start to finish.

Tell me what you think of draft 2.

Re: story
Ok, well first of all I do have a way with writing my poetry that it changes meter at parts but it's just how I write. I guess I could always post it somewhere else. Anyway I also wanted to point out the fact that the words you pointed out that didn't rhyme, were slant rhymes. If you don't know what that is, (I'm not sure if you do or not), it's when words don't directly rhyme like car/bar/far etc., but sound like they should rhyme like the ones you pointed out.

Re: Thanks

I personally think you should go for "We are Legion" as that is probably my favorite story by you.

Hi Empyreallinective it's TheDarkOne2.0 I attempted to start writing a creepy pasta but couldn't find a way to save it so I could finish it later. Does that mean I have to publish what I have so far then go back to edit it?

I proofread religiously and it was SoPretentious who put those quotes together. I know I don't need to tell you how I feel about people editing my work. The last time I let someone edit my work was a catastrophe. I'm glad you pointed it out to me before it was judged, though your comment still makes me look a bit foolish. Do you think you could remove it? I know it's a silly, nothing thing; it's just that I put a lot of time into that story. Probably too much time.

Writer's Lounge Question
Hi Empyre, I wanted to ask you something about the interview, if you have time. I have written down about 10 questions (stealing shamelessly from previous interviews) but I would like your opinion on something. I couldn't come up with that many questions about WriterJosh's stories (only 2-3). I will mainly ask about general stuff. Is that a problem?

By the way, the interview will take place this weekend (by email). If Josh replies within the next week, I will have finished the interview by the 3-5th of June. Is that OK or should I speed things up? MrDupin (talk) 17:57, May 18, 2015 (UTC)

There's a Protected Pasta That Needs Editing
Would you unlock this pasta? Love. It needs spacing changes and at least one word, "embarrassed" is spelled wrong. If you'd rather make the changes, then embarrassed is in the paragraph that starts with, "I broke the rules many times..." and it's in the last sentence in that paragraph.


 * On that note, "embarrassed" is spelled wrong in this pasta, which is also locked, Humper-Monkey's Ghost Story. It is located on the paragraph that starts with a quote, "Almost" said Bishop...


 * Also, Dark Woods: The Elmridge Grasp is locked, and has "desperately" and "emanated" both spelled wrong, they are in the paragraph that starts with, "Believe it or not, about two hours later..." I just glanced at that one, though, I bet it has more errors.

Contest Idea...Oh God, not another one!
Hey Trav,

I realize that as of late we have been flooded with different writing contests, which to me is a good thing, since it is bringing in new stories and getting everyone to step up their game. I even did one for Crazywords, Of Beauties and Beasts, just in case you want to read it.

So, in light of all of this, I got the idea in my head that I want to do one too. Now, I realize that we are a little contest heavy right now, so I was thinking of proposing the idea to you and the other admins (who I'll be sending this message to as well, just to crowd source the idea) now, and launch the contest itself at the start of June.

The idea that I have is a demon/devil themed contest. I would keep it pretty open ended, not assigning anyone specific goals or terms to write within. The only rule would be that the theme of the story would have to be demon centric, the plot and the rest is up to the writer. Other rules, like length of story and such will be added in pending approval.

Basically I would open up the first 20 days of June for submissions, and I will read and grade as they come in. The 20th-25th would be the judging, with the winner being announced at the end of June.

Now, here is where I would need admin support, beyond just approving the contest. I want to offer prizes, but I don't have a bunch of game codes to give out like Guy did in his contest last year. Basically, the prize ideas I came up with look like this,

The winning author gets a choice of either being the automatic spotlighted pasta for the month of July, or an automatic nomination for Pasta of the Month. It would be their choice as to which prize to accept.

The contest would be essentially open to anyone, regardless of user rights, accept for me, since I would be the primary judge. I am still thinking of whether or not I want to offer assistant judging positions to anyone else.

Either way, this is still very much in the planning phase, and much of it is going to rely on admin support and approval, especially for prize portion. I am mostly looking for feedback and suggestions at this point, as maybe you have a better idea of potential prizes, if you're not keen on the ideas that I came up with.

If the idea gets blessed off on, I will write a Staff Blog with the contest rules and guidelines so that people who want to get an early jump on this can.

Let me know your thoughts on this. As I said before, it would kick off in June, so that gives us the rest of this month to close out current contests, plus, if you do approve, you can factor that against any other potential contest proposals that may pop up.

Thanks for you time and consideration,

Shoo Fly Don't Bother Me
Read your mind, am I right? There's a misspelling on this protected pasta. The Showers

(paragraph start) They approached the building as a group, looking in the semi-open sliding door to find a big, empty room. Hanging, florescent lights ''←should be "fluorescent lights." ''


 * Also, I noticed the same misspelling on three of the fifty foot ants stories. It's actually sort of interesting... Florescent means flowering or vigor. Then there is fluorescent lights. If you don't want to unlock the stories then I'll send messages to help you locate the misspellings. It would be much easier to unlock (then possibly re-lock) the pasta after the mistakes are corrected, considering there's multiple misspellings and the length of the pasta. (As I have a word-finder program on my computer, it's rather simple.) 22:18, May 21, 2015 (UTC)


 * Ok, I didn't know that existed. Well, have a good one. Would you leave a header on my talk page next time? 22:26, May 21, 2015 (UTC)


 * Third, Fourth, and Fifth. It's repeated like four times on the third one, I didn't look at the others yet, they may be correct if it's not talking about fluorescent lights. Florescent is just a uncommon word. 22:32, May 21, 2015 (UTC)

Poetry
Since I have a writer's block at the moment (I always had one) I decided I would like to turn my attention to poetry. Now, obviously, the writing I will have to do on my own, but what I'm asking is that how the formatting works. Basically, I would want a poem to look more like "Hypno's Lullaby" than "The Blue-Faced Baby," mainly because of the spacing stuff. But then, in Source Mode, if you write a phrase then press Enter without space between the previous statement, it all merges to one line, which is something I don't want. Can you offer a hand here?

Are you giving out some songs to more than one person, or was that an accident? Just wanted to make sure you hadn't lost your monocle again.

Hi Empyreallnvective! It's TheDarkOne2.0 and I've just noticed that my story was deleted on Thursday May 21. A message from you led me here. So sometime soon, can you tell me why my story "Demon's Heir" was almost instantly deleted? I just want some clarification on where I might have gone wrong.

Sincerely,

spinoff inquiry
Hi again Empyreallnective. Let me make some points about my story "Demon's Heir".

First, the punctuation is actually proper. You might live in the U.S., but I'm actually Canadian (btw, how do I show that information on my talk page?), and I'm sure people do know what makes our countries different.

Second, I know that some of my sentences don't look right. I kind of inherited that problem from my mother.

Third, can you be specific on the cliches? I tried to avoid some of them.

And then there's the Spin-off and Black list thing. I know Jeff the Killer is in it, but isn't he only in there for two scenes? And isn't the Slenderman in only one scene? Ticcy Toby was kind of unavoidable, though, as I like his story better than Jeff's, and I wanted to mention him in at least one of my stories. And isn't he in there for only three scenes?

Even though I did add those characters in, what about my main protagonist, Nissa? Technically, she is no spin off character (except for being Ticcy Toby's cousin). And she's a vigilante, not a serial killer, there is a difference. If you've watched anything related to Batman or the show Arrow, you know what I mean. I know I haven't seen any vigilante stories here yet, though you might have.

Sorry if I ended up going overkill on your talk page.

Sincerely,

Well then, I will put "Demon's Heir" on Spinpasta.wikia.com later. But I do have a question considering another story I want to write.

I want to do a "Lost Episode" style story that I promise won't have much gore (or any hyper-realism) in it. In fact, I want it to look something like The Ring.

Would I still have to go to the Spin-off Appeal in order to do a story like I've mentioned? If not, where do I go then?

Sincerely,

Fix This?
There's a broken link in this pasta The Stepmother it goes to a deleted pasta. It's at the bottom. I checked the deletion logs. I just wanted to make sure I knew what's going on.

Hello! I had a question crop up while I was figuring out my contest entry. I was wondering how not safe for work am I allowed to get? In particular, I am concerned about a part that I came up with that has a soldier helping a villager deliver a baby which is effected by Agent Orange, the baby is going to be fused and stillborn (a real effect of Agent Orange). I was wondering if that is too far or was acceptable? Doom Vroom (talk) 21:33, May 24, 2015 (UTC)


 * Alright, thank you. Yeah, I'm doing my best to approach it delicately since it deals with war (especially Vietnam). You know what's sad? Vietnam was never covered in my High School or College education. We only focused on The Fur Trade, American Revolution, Civil War, World War 1, World War 2 and glossed over The Cold War throughout all of my education. Mercifully, we went over the Romans in College. At least I'm learning because of the contest XD Doom Vroom (talk) 21:48, May 24, 2015 (UTC)

Thoughts
Just wondering, when do you think I should re-apply for adminship? I have my app ready. I also noticed that I have as many edits since my promotion to rollbacker, that Banningk1979 did since his. His spanned over 4 months, and mine has spanned about 3 weeks. I don't really see much of a difference, I have made a thousand edits since then. But, there's a need for staff. The wiki has 1 active bureaucrat, and 2 active admins. I was going to wait a week, but I was thinking of just putting it up sooner since I checked the differences in our timelines/edits.

Re:Adminship
As far as editing mistakes, those seem like minor hiccups that happen, especially considering I've averaged over 40 edits per day for nearly a month. The fact that you could come up with 4 or 5 examples of bad edits speaks to my consistency. My adding the Marked for Review category is hit or miss, and to that I would say that those are fine because adding the Marked for Review is not the same as choosing to delete a story. I still think there's a few instances that were very much on the fence with adding the category and then it being removed. The Silkie Chicken being one that still lingers on my mind from time to time. I think I could offer the most assistance in outlining the issues with writers when a pasta is deleted.

There is maybe only 10-20 instances of pastas I have added M4R and the pasta has stayed. I would venture to guess that half (if not more) of my archived revisions were pastas deleted after my marking it for review. My archived revisions have reached a total of 390. I make it a point of mine to not edit pastas that I feel will be deleted. That point drives the number of archived revisions that equal deletions upwards. Asking for the pasta to be reviewed is a good idea anyway, when the quality is in question. Also, there has never been an instance of my stylistic revisions being removed, because they are always good, none have been over-the-top, and I strive to keep a story clean and precise.

The fact of the matter is, I meet all the requirements since my return to the wiki (besides six months activity, but that is accomplished when adding the previous activity before the respite), and my activity before that was more thorough, precise work. You are right that I could slow down. Then I would be doing less. When I first got back, there was 40 some odd pastas that needed to be sorted still.

I think that I interact plenty with other users on the wiki, even seeking ways to help people through avenues far beyond the normal user.

I think your response was very detailed, I would ask that you read this on my sandbox:

A concise application.

Hey, no cool deleting my friend's pasta :(

The pasta "Lost Chapters" should have been a warning, before deletion. I mean, he just lost all of his work, cuz he doesn't have a computer, he has a smartphone, in which he used to type and post his story. I would have edited it for him, whatever errors were there. It also could have been placed in an "unfinished" category, or something.

The main thing is, there needs to be warnings, before deleting people's stuff. Our whole Google+ community was looking forward to this story :( And, to delete someone's work, then tell them upon deletion "oh btw, check out our do's and don'ts for creepypastas", not right bro :(

Thank you so much for telling me! I didn't know that without permission from the author I could get in serious trouble for editing a story. Thank you. I'm sorry that I did that. I'm just thankful you told me. - Longgonedead Longgonedead (talk) 05:55, May 25, 2015 (UTC)

Re:Adminship
I've thought about it some, and I think you're being unfair. I'm going to take your advice, and make that a solid bureaucratic move on your part. It's not in my nature, but it's something I should learn before I'm an admin anyway. A settled pace would make me an overall better contributor. Thanks.

Interview Update
Josh just replied to my interview questions. His responses are about 1600 words in total. Is that alright? I can ask him a couple more questions if need be.

As he didn't take that much time to respond, I will have the interview ready by the end of May. MrDupin (talk) 11:23, May 25, 2015 (UTC)


 * Alright, a couple of questions later and his answers amount to about 2000 words. If that's enough, I will start editing the interview. MrDupin (talk) 18:19, May 25, 2015 (UTC)


 * To be fair, two out of five interviews have less than 2000 words. Also, I asked Josh 15 questions, I don't want to push him for more.


 * If you think the interview needs more, I will try and come up with a couple more questions. But they will either be a bit personal (something I want to avoid) or possibly uninteresting. MrDupin (talk) 18:59, May 25, 2015 (UTC)


 * Well, I think that (at worst) by the end of the week I will have it ready. Only thing I need to do is space it out a bit. Also, because the interview was conducted via email, it probably has some fluidity issues. Can I send it to you (after I edit it) to see if it's a problem? MrDupin (talk) 19:15, May 25, 2015 (UTC)

I forgot, shit, sorry about that.

About my Paradise pasta...
Thank you for your feedback. I have fixed some of the details that you pointed out were wrong with my story. I would like to publish my story on this site, but am not sure exactly how to go about it. I don't really want to make a story where George goes mad with power or ruins the world with his powers-those have been done too many times before. I was interested with about your suggestion to talk about the darker side of human nature, but I am unsure of exactly how I could fit that into my story, so any help would be greatly appreciated. Nevertheless, I will try to edit my story some more and post it here in the future t try and make it closer to the concept of a Creepypasta/

Escuse me, but the story you just deleted, I'm Reading A Scary Story, I would like it to be undeleted. The fact is that every time I edited it to give paragraphs, It went back to a wall of text after I hit save changes. I need help with that, because that is what I believe is the only stories fault. Also, I cannot find turn off visual editor. So the site is actually causing the wall of text, when I made paraghraphs, and turn off visual editor is no where in site.
