Perhaps, then, a later discussion date would be beneficial? The 29th is rather soon for such a lengthy title. Hell, even I don't have the time to read that much before the 29th, and I wrote the damn thing.

But on second thought, I read this over two years ago. Might just have to sit this one out.

If I'm being completely honest, I was attempting a bit of irony. Me, of all people, complaining about the length of a fan fiction is just plain ridiculous.

An extension is still a good idea, though.

Look at it this way, TD hasn't gotten any longer in a while… :wink:

That said, I finished rereading >Σ today.
I found out about Katawa Shoujo through the forums of Misfile. There, I am the editor of Misfiled Dreams.

Well, that one comes straight from the story's text...

EDIT: Fitting that my 666th post should come in response to a math pun :roll:.

Yeah, I guess if it's been a while since you read it, that could be confusing.

Originally, I was trying to save time be using >Σ. Then it took long enough to figure out how to do a Σ that it didn't save any time. But now that I did it once, I can recreate it as I wish, so there's that.

It's Option-S on a Mac, at least. (I find Apple's special character assignments to be particularly... logical... like that, really.)

On other OSes, good luck.

Edit: Shows what I get for googling key combos without having a Mac in front of me. It's actually Option-W, as discussed later.

Too many puns and references lol. In any case, I've read >Σ. I'll post my thoughts on the 2nd.
