Who wants to be in a spam fanfiction

Giygas said Instead of transporting how the person is in real life, it turns the person into their avatar or what they are like on the forum.

So I'd get turned into a Blue haired blasian who's insanely good at basketball? Somehow I am totally okay with this.

Part of the reason I want to give them that space and give James a slightly different role.

Oh! I was only joking mate, don't switch around all your plans just because of little old me. Though I do look forward to Eoghan and Johann's interactions in particular due to the culture clash factor.

TP said 2009 was the first traces of Spam all coming together. Then I left for six months and came back, then there was Spam and OT and Members Lounge in 2010.

Drakel said If I'm correct, the guild started in 2007

Ah, I was confusing Spam/Off-Topic with the entire guild. My mistake.

No but really, I've no idea what the hell my character would be like in this considering I hardly ever posted in Old Spam and can hardly be considered active in New Spam.

Doctor Belasco said I fully intend for Johann to develop, one way or the other. Coming into contact with freaks and half-breeds will change him, for better or for worse.

How could racial diversity cause anything negative? Widen your horizons Johann! You'll learn to put up with us eventually.

Doctor Belasco said In theory, they're deliberately designed to contrast and complement, and possibly bring out the best or worst in each of them. I just didn't really feel like James was going to cut the mustard, so I'm going to give him a bit more, ya know, character.

Awh, I thought the small and squishy Half-Leprechaun was the perfect foil to the bruting meat-tank.

Doctor Belasco said Shall we go for the best buds prankster (Eoghan) and serious one (James) double-team, btw? As the two male Hufflepuff representatives in the group going on a gap year together, their friendship seems extremely logical. :)

Assuming that the "Hogwarts" characters of the RP all essentially know each other via mutual friends/extracurricular activities/virtue of going to the same school, I believe being in the same house for seven years of schooling would no doubt teach James to put up with Eoghan's antics, so I'm all for them being the best of friends. I can already envision James' face when Eoghan tells him they're bringing the Australian transfer student.

Oh. How long has the guild been running for? I joined spam right when the new guild started

I want to say since either 2009 or early 2010? I could be far off, but those're the dates off the top of my head when I think about it.

Doctor Belasco said If in doubt, assume the Russian stance on gay people. Technically we don't have a problem and you're still an equal member of society, we just don't want you near our kids. Essentially an unfriendly barely-tolerance but without active persecution.

Let's hope Eoghan can pass for either a very short Pureblood or an abnormally tall Leprechaun (which probably isn't that much of an upgrade).

Doctor Belasco said The only real effect I guess it will have on Eoghan is Johann's reaction, and I wouldn't assume they're going to be the closest of friends; I expect Johann will basically think he's a bit of a waste of (admittedly not much) space and generally ignore him/try to make sure he doesn't end up with anything important to do.

Oh, don't be so sure, give Johann a few weeks/months with the group and Eoghan'll have him singing Irish Pub Songs and river-dancing, and I'm sure if Johann stays put in his conservative worldview, the look on his face when Eoghan does some insane Quidditch thing like Harry in the first book/film extraordinary feat will be all the more amusing to the shortest member of our party.

Doctor Belasco said I'm just going to give him a little bit of oomph. He's coming back. :)It's kind of my intention to push him steadily toward the slippery slope of the dark arts, but trying to make him as un-cliché as possible if he should ever approach 'villain' territory.

Well, you've certainly piqued my curiosity with how you intend to write that up. I'm sure James' coming into the acquaintance with Johann will bring some light to that subject.

If I were around spam more often I'd probably ask to be in this.

Put me in it.

I'm personally not against the German/East European Wizard mindset being a little more conservative than the English/American mindset in that half-bloods/Muggle-Borns aren't really ostracized but treated as if they're still a bit of an anomaly. Unless I'm reading that wrong. For rather biased reasons, I'm more curious as to just how they'd treat Half-Breeds.

On a less related note, I can't help but notice James' sheet has gone missing! I do hope he remains with the Puffs of Huffle. We must establish a new world order. (Also it seems like James is going to essentially be one of Eoghan's seldom amount of friends he met neither through Quidditch or the Dueling Club.)

If a Star Wars and Marvel crossover ever happened.

maybe we could get a canon crossover and finally kill off wolverine.

I don't even think all the Jedi Mind-Tricks in the world galaxy would be able to convince Marvel to kill off Wolverine.

If a Star Wars and Marvel crossover ever happened.

Considering Marvel will be publishing Star Wars comic books, I'd love to see some wildly non-canon thing of Luke fighting Galactus or what not.
