tent163phantoka Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 What do you do while waiting for replies in your topics. I read, or post around to keep myself from going crazy-well crazier anyway. Quote My Library! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrozenFlash Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 I wait, post in other topics and then I check back once in a while to see if there are any replies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Protodite Karzahni Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 Given the only topics I post are fanfics or short stories, I just continue on with my day. Those kinds of things take time for people to read then review, so just continuing's the best way forward. Quote I wrote stories once. They were okay.

otter Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 (edited) Well, I only make topics in the Library.If SS, no replies at all. Nothing. Zip. Nada.If comedies, I actually used to have a lot of people who liked mine, though that was back in..'08-09, I think.If Epics, my review has ended up being just a one-on-one conversation with my friend and I.And I had older epics, but I haven't done anything with them in a while. I might try to remake Into the Deep, but meh.EDIT: Hey wait I forgot the rest of my post...scumbag brain.I generally run around and roleplay.

fishers64 Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 I go to other topics. If I am done with my current stack of topics for the day, I go do something else. Usually off to read some epic (on here) or an actual real book. Horrors!

Aderia Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 I usually get anxious after I post a story, so I step away from the computer for a while, usually, because if not I'll just go back and stalk my own topic like a butt.

Peach 00 Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 Wait patiently for someone to reply to a story I might have just posted, and because that takes a few thousand years, I watch some Happy Days. Quote On the day the wall came down / They threw the locks onto the ground And with glasses high / We raised a cry / For freedom had arrived On the day the wall came down / The ship of fools had finally run aground Promises lit up the night / Like paper doves in flight I dreamed you had left my side / No warmth, not even pride remained And even though you needed me / It was clear that I could not do a thing for you Now life devalues day by day / As friends and neighbors turn away And there's a change that even with regret / Cannot be undone Now frontiers shift like desert sands / While nations wash their bloodied hands Of loyalty, of history / In shades of grey I woke to the sound of drums / The music played, the morning sun streamed in I turned and I looked at you / And all but the bitter residues slipped away slipped away...

Kaleidoscope Tekulo Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 (edited) Wait, you mean people post in my topics? I do stuff. Like chat with other memebers, read the latest blog entry, nerd out about Legend of Korra and stuffs. Oh, and I also visit S&T every now and again to try and liven things up a bit.Looking at other replies, it looks like you meant "What do you do outside of BZPower" XPWatch Legend of Korra, work on week days, lately I've been into Professor Layton, maybe grab the occasional book and recently socialize with friends and other professional and non-professional things.

AuRon the champion Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 I often have the BZPRPG pages that I'm RPing on open (i.e. This morning it's BZPRPG News and Discussion, Ga-Wahi, Emergency Transmissions, and Techna: Breakdown), email, music player, and two chats open. Sometimes I'll see if anything is new on MOCpages, or write on CBW while waiting for a reply (curse timezones). If all else fails, I'll start to refresh everything repeatedly after thirty minutes. If that fails to get results, then I'll work on animation or go build out of boredom. Quote BZPRPG Characters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TNTOS Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 Usually about once or twice a day, because the topics I post generally tend to be epics, short stories, or comedies, which aren't exactly fast reads (unless they happen to be unusually short).-TNTOS- Quote "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat." - Theodore RooseveltA Writerly BlogThe Tasty Library of Sugary Goodness(My Little BIONICLE: Friendship is Explosive Completed 01/05/14){The Shika Trilogy Omnibus Completed 03/31/14) (Review Topic)(In the End Completed 09/01/14) (Review Topic)The Biological Chronicle: (2001) (2002) (2003) (2004) (2005) (2006) (2007) (2008) (2009) (2010) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
