#1. Posted on May 02, 2007 04:42 PM. Why?.... Why?.. lol. I'm not even going to give a rebuttal here. This piece is more than a year old -- it was conceived approximately 18 months ago. Every one of your qualms -- and more that no one could possibly have time to delve into -- is true.... Except for one..
"How do Zerg suddenly get smart? They can't make decisions on their own."

A small band of marines dashed from the underbrush on the sidelines of the paintball course, hoisting deadfast onto their soldiers and toting him from the battlefield as he continued upchucking varying amounts of orange paint.

This story was a success. It will now commence crumbling and burning until it's buried under a ten-foot pile of soot and ash somewhere in the Short Story section, but it had its moment of glory ...

#15. Posted on February 09, 2007 03:08 AM. There are many speakers of English for whom it is their second language that one would be unable to tell such because of their immense vocabularies. Seeing as there are a number of Asians on this website, I thought it not too presumptious to make a guess. I apologize for my criticism of the lack of descriptions.

I haven't maintained steady contact with you -- or any contact for that matter -- so I'm not aware of your nationality. I assume English isn't your first language... Every now and then you would throw in a slightly unused word (lieu, emininent tendrils), but for the most part your vocabulary was.... lacking. Descriptions were also quite weak.

The color choices bothered me a little bit, because as you well know, the real Goliath isn't tan or light gray, it's a metallic dark gray, but as such a color is difficult to obtain, you're 'clear'.

However, in Goliath, I didn't just change anything. I made an entirely new story and then wrote it from scratch, with the original Goliath series as a blueprint.

#70. Posted on June 05, 2006 07:34 AM. Great, DontShoot! Glad that you finally got moving and wrote something else--though I would rather read some more Unit: 408. Wonderful style and the overuse of 'dust' actually helped things along. With your initial description I thought the room was empty, then when you had the guy in there, it provided an excellent feeling. However, I don't like Booth. Is he schizo?

#145. Posted on May 25, 2006 05:19 PM. Yeah, that's what I was thinking too as I read this, Doc Oc. Other than the lack of Protoss finesse, this was a great story. You got a nice level of description, and the plot carries on well. I can feel for the Zealot kind of, though it would be nicer if he acted more experienced. Oh, and Protoss don't have Commanders. They have Executors. -'Champ ... Click here to view this comment. |

#148. Posted on May 25, 2006 05:09 PM. Yeah, DontShoot. It's rather interesting, after watching the Suns and Mavericks score so much, to look at the complete opposite game: Heat vs. Pistons. Pheonix could really benefit from learning from Detroit, but as long as they want to keep this up and let Dallas win, I'm fine =). -'Champ ... Click here to view this comment. |

DontShoot needs all the constructive criticism he can get... that is what that was, right? Constructive criticism?.... heh... I wanted the Pistons to win, DS, because... well... let's see, why did I want them to win? They're an all around better team and they deserve it!.... wait, maybe not.... anyhow... -'Champ ...

#152. Posted on May 23, 2006 01:07 AM. Sorry, Soul. Once again too crammed up... that influences my vote a lot. However, this work wasn't that shabby altogether. Ben was unoriginal (but you mentioned that), and I feel he played too much of a role. He's just another soldier--you shouldn't have mentioned him later on. Nonetheless, there was charisma carried in your snappy dialogue and brief fight scene. Gets a good. -'Champ ... Click here to view this comment. |

#153. Posted on May 22, 2006 10:16 PM. Too crammed up. Not enough development. Unoriginal plot: Can you say Star Trek? However, I like the fact that you didn't try to 'flavor' the story with a multitude of swear words. And it was nice that you tried to add religion in... It wasn't very smooth, though. Anyways, good. -'Champ ... Click here to view this comment. |

#154. Posted on May 22, 2006 10:09 PM. Finally something we can agree on, DontShoot. I wanted the Pistons to beat the Cavs, but the Heat are my overall favorites. I just follow Shaq around. Before he got switched, the Lakers were my all time favorites =p. -'Champ ... Click here to view this comment. |

#155. Posted on May 22, 2006 10:07 PM. Yay, Starcraft787878! We're rising in the pop fiction. You submitted it... but this is the first thing that I wrote that has hit pop in a few months!! And yeah, plots aren't really all that tough. If you're having trouble getting stuff laid out, I find it helpful to take a clean sheet of paper, a sharp pencil, and write out your timeline. Then your thoughts can be crisp and organized .

They don't usually have 'A's (Zeratul is an exception) in their names either. Quite unimportant, though =p. -'Champ ... Click here to view this comment. |

The Cavs are going down, DontShoot... at least I hope so. The Pistons had everything going so well at first, but now they're 3-3... Life is so unjust. This has been a strange year for the playoffs... three 3-3s, and a 6 seed making it. meh. -'Champ ... Click here to view this comment. |

#172. Posted on May 18, 2006 02:50 AM. Okay, I'm starting to get a tad confused.... You have overlapping chapters or something. You're going to make some mini series and they'll all be part of the SC Saga? Then rename the SC Saga, so it doesn't confuse people like me . It seems like SC Saga I-IV leads into Rise of the Dominion Overwhelmed and Rise of the Dominion Devestation. Then at the end of Overwhelmed, Duke's about to shoot Raynor.
