No, they are - I'm just being anal - I know it won't come up again for a while (if ever). It would just be nice to have it in there so we wouldn't have to hunt through Bureau or ask in the thread when it's OK to post.
Angel: Will you just shut up for once?! Illyria: What? Angel: My God, the speechifying. Has it ever occurred to you that now might not be the best time for when-we-were-muck stories?

Guy #1: Man, there are so many hipsters around. I hate hipsters! Guy #2: You're at the wrong place. That's like going to Vegas only to say "I hate titties!" --The Warsaw, Williamsburg (OINY)

Right, Brenda, it's a courtesy thing. But according to NAFDA, that's all it was, a courtesy thing. I'm a big user of whitefont, but I don't expect people to do it for me in NAFDA places.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The Firefly DVD release had an ad hoc blackfont delay time in the thread itself, to give people a chance to actually watch.
The thread had other discussion happening, though, and the spoiler thread with UK discussion.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Yeah, I recall the Firefly spoiler thread went from spoilers no problem to ...we have to white font spoilers for unaired eps and that confused the hell out of me. But that's because I wasn't reading Bureaucracy at all. Now that I'm reading this thread, I understand buffistas.

It's a sad, sad, didactic slide down this particular rabbit hole.

Up with the sun
Do we have any suggestions for a name for the new Great Write Way? "Volume II" or "Second chapter" are the obvious.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
I'm suggesting: "Chapter Two: Twice upon a time..."

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
The new thread is ready to go.

So are we. Two posts away.
