Up with the sun

So on average, there's just a smidge over one quote per episode for Buffy/Angel, and 51 per episode for Firefly?

Yeah, that seems a wee bit out of whack. But I think all we can do about it is submit more Buffy/Angel, since the Firefly quotes are already in the database.

What is even happening?

There are 1000 quotes, 720 are Firefly, and a Buffy/Angel breakdown will have to wait a little longer.

Let me get it for ya.

Quote Table Break Down

Firefly Quotes: 720

Buffy Quotes: (1000-720) - (# of Angel quotes)

Angel Quotes: (1000-720) - (# of Buffy quotes)

See? All done.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Entire quote list.

Only 10 Angel quotes? Yikes! I wonder if Katie has all the deathmatch quotes in a form we can use.

Brilliant idea, Jon! I don't think she has the season and ep numbers attached to them, but she has a handy-dandy quote list work with. She could outsource the grunt work.

Oh! I've made an arbitrary decision, so feel free to bite me: No quotes longer than 336 characters.

10 of the Firefly quotes are going to fall through the cracks because of that.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

The beauty of Buffistas is we only get what we're willing to do. So, people who want more Buffy/Angel quotes? Get formatting!

Art Crawl!!!

Where do we submit quotes?

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

I wonder if Katie has all the deathmatch quotes in a form we can use.

Well, possibly, kind of. I'll try to remember to check at home tonight. The files that I actually use for the deathmatches have had the losing quotes removed over time, so they won't be very helpful, but I believe I have the originals on my desktop.

Frankly, though, I'm not willing to format them, so if anyone wants to take the project on just let me know and I'll send the files over.
