Subj: It's those sharp plot twists that you can cut yourself on. And then you smell of blood.

Quote: I'm glad to see you haven't lost your touch with the PVMB stories - while your novels carry a lot of the style there is still something different in the execution. (I have just finished re-reading the Mumphry Wilton one as well). About 40% of the story was written back in 2010 as part of the intended ongoing series at the time. What I'm doing is bringing forward a few things I might originally have strung out a bit longer with a new overall villainous plot to legitimately accelerate them. Quote: I'm not sure that we have had to deal with a drunk Shoggoth before - but none the less, cue the happy drunken singing.I shall be sure to include some. Next issue: Shoggoth with hang over. Quote: Oh, and Flapjack is on form.I remembered that Flapjack and Marie have had a very Quasimodo/Esmerelda relationship before so it seemed right that he would be protective of her now. It would be a horrible mistake to deny his abilities. On a technical matter, I've been trying to update the archived material on The Hooded Hood's Homepage of Doom. I notice that a lot but not all of the pages I call up from older parts of the PVB site have garbled codes instead of speech marks, apostrophes and ellipses; e.g. http://parodyverse.strike-two.com/app/show.php?msg=parodyverse-2011042616263265&layout=thread Another issue is that the latest pages on the site must call up background in a different way, because ported to my site they all have white default backgrounds; e.g. http://www.chillwater.org.uk/HH/hhstories/untold%20tales%20of%20ll%20348.htm My attempts to globally edit the rogue text using a find/replace programme have only had moderate success and have actually screwed up other, older, already-working archived pages. Given the problem occurs on an estimated 1,300 of the 4,500 pages on my site I'm not keen to try manual individual fixes. Any ideas? | |||||||
