Kana: WAFFO! - General discussion

Darkling · **Joined:** Sat Jul 17, 2004 9:18 am **Posts:** 5762

The Kana: WAFFO project is a chance for writing-inclined Kana Little Sister fans to participate in a collective writing experience. People take turns contributing instalments to the story here at The Anime Place, in the latest WAFFO thread.

The first one began on July 20, 2006.

Please read the posting guidelines before joining in.

I imagine that this thread will be used to discuss the WAFFO project in general, and to throw around ideas for future stories.

Hmm general pairing ideas for the future.

YumixTakaxKana
MikixTaka
KanaxYuta even?
SumakoxTaka? (for those of us with the older women streak >.>)

Just some ideas. Nice twist on the project already!

I like the idea of MikixTaka, especially if it takes place after Kana's death. I can imagine Miki trying to console Taka by going out with him, and the relationship slowly developing into something more.

I'd put it together as an angst fest personally.

Post ending 2. With Yumi and Miki both in the picture. Triangle of sorts.

Think I'd prefer writing about Taka falling apart.

*kicks brother's shins*

Not too sure about Miki though.

Yup falling to bits alright - think KGNE. But take out the 'tsu' in the girl's name

If you know the chars you'll know what I mean ^^

I just want to point out that the current version of the guidelines means that neither Ko-chan nor I can post another instalment yet. So it's up to someone else to take up the challenge for a bit...

Oh, and it seems that the quote function doesn't work correctly at the moment. If you remove the "=whoever" part in the QUOTE tag, though, it'll format the quote appropriately.

Also, this board has an edit function, so there's no reason to double post except in the actual WAFFO thread, to keep story and commentary separate.

Quote function seems to work fine. Are you still having problems with it Darkling?

Would it not be wiser to have a thread for discussion of the specfic active WAFFO thread to seperate comments from the actual story?

Hmm. Apparently not. Sideris's quote (a couple of posts up) wasn't displaying properly when I last checked. But it's all good now.

Well, for one thing, that'd be two discarded threads for every WAFFO. And for another thing, people may want to quote from other people's story instalments when discussing the current WAFFO.

Still, it's a thought. We're only on our trial run, after all, and we haven't worked out everything in advance. It could be that the story will end up being impossible to follow if the discussion is mixed in with the story (even with the big instalment numbers and the 'keep discussion in a separate post' rule).

For something like this, I don't really think having two discarded threads would be a problem.

Was only a suggestion. Always up to you if you want to use it or not.

That's actually what I was worried about.

Hmm...I wonder if it's just going to be two of us who end up writing this fic (Heehe) :lol:

Seriously though - no takers for the 3rd post out there?

Wake_Dream said he might come up with something, and I've asked JPop4Life if he wants to contribute too. So I guess, in the meantime, we wait...

I was considering changing it so that anyone can post another instalment if two days pass. However, that may necessitate a rule that no-one can post three instalments in a row. *shrug* Hopefully those won't be necessary.

I really don't want these WAFFOs to turn into a ping-pong match, that's all.

Let's leave the min posting window at 2. I think it's best to involve 3 ppl at the very least.

Likewise, I was thinking more of a frisbee in a park ^^
