Total Drama Author 3

A lot of people think that they are great authors. Over half of these people are only okay-good. This is not only a camp where people are getting their writing skills improved but they are competing to be the best author.... Who will prove that they have the skills? Who will crumble under the pressure? Who will rise to the occasion?

'''This... is... TOTAL DRAMA AUTHOR 3!!!'''

See the stories here!

How It Works

 * 1) Two teams of eight people each will be constructed.
 * 2) The teams will compete in challenges. (i.e. Write a story where Lindsay and Tyler break up OR write a story where Beth suddenly becomes popular)
 * 3) Sunshine and Sprinklemist will read and judge the stories, and determine which team wins.
 * 4) The winning team is INVINCIBLE!!!
 * 5) Fans and competitors will vote for the bottom two of the team via poll.
 * 6) The bottom two will give reasons to stay in the game.
 * 7) Sunshine and Sprinklemist will conference and decide on who to eliminate.
 * 8) Repeat steps 1-8.
 * 9) Later in the game, there will be a merge, and the two teams will become the Best-Sellers.
 * 10) More challenges, stories, elimination.
 * 11) One author will be left and will be declared the best author EVER!!!

Week 1
Sunshine: Welcome one and all... to TOTAL DRAMA AUTHOR 3!!!!! Nalyd decided he was tired of hosting, so this season your beloved host will be none other than EVERYONE'S FAVORITE PIXIE!!!!!! *waits for applause, there is none* Here with me is my lovely co-host, SPRINKLEMIIIIISSSSTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *still no applause* ...oh... right... no one's here yet...

Tdiandrockmusic2:WOOHOO! GO SUNSHINE, GO SPRINKLE!!! (LOL, I shouldn't have had those Cocoa Puffs.)

Tdirm2(Tdiandrockmusic2)-*listens to Coldplay and patiently waits for the other competitors*

TBTDIF: N-Nalyd's not hosting? WHAT!? Is he gonna compete? It's nothing without original Season 1 veterans. So far I'm the only one.

Tdirm2-I could have joined the first two seasons, but I didn't. So it makes me an almost veteran.

TBTDIF: I don't think you were even here first season. Didn't you wanna join second season though?

NIzzy: Hi, it's me NIzzy! *silence* Aw c'mon!

Chimmy: Hey, it's me! Just so I'm not asking this during the challenge, where do we post the stories?

Tdirm2:TBTIF, I had an anoymous account for season one, I considered making an account and signing up. I have no clue why I didn't sign up for TDAuthor 2. I probably would have gotten bowled over by Gigi, Sprinkle, and Sunshine.

Sprinklemist: Chimchar, There will be spaces on this page for each author to put their story after the challenge is announced. Welcome to our first nine signer uppers. *glares at the lovely comment* It's true.

Chimmy: Thanks! (Yeah, n00bish as I'll ever be. XD.)

Owester: I'm back. I hope I'll do better.

Anonymos: I'm BAAAAAAAACK!!! Who missed me?

Chimmy: Wow. I'm so honored to...type..among these great authors...LOL.

CK11: Same...w00t

Usitgz: I'm back and as ready as ever.

Tdifan: Yep, me too! Ready to rock! *plays really long guitar solo*

Sprinklemist: Only one more spot to fill.

NIzzy: I feel hyper! (Thats danger to everybody)

Tdafan:RUN!!!!!!!

NIzzy: Yay sugar rush!!!! LOL

Chimmy:NIzzy, me too! Let's play Duck-Duck-Snipe! Or Pin-the-tail-on-the-towel! Ooh! Or even Jump-Off-My-Neighbor's-roof-with-my-friend-Mr. Phil Broomy!

NIzzy: Yay! *attacks someone*

Tdifan: and I thought I was strange....o_0

Tdafan:Same here*walks off to the lake*

NIzzy: I'm not stange I'm emotional damged! (LOL)

Tdafan:*swims*

Chimmy: *Notices Phil battered on the floor.* NIzzy, you attacked Phil. PHIL! Speak to me!

Phil: ...

Chimmy: NOOOOOOOOOOOO! You monster! (JK, by the way. But I think Phil went to the great closet in the sky...XD)

Tdirm2:*turns off Coldplay* Hey everybody!

Chimmy: *Is mourning Mr. Phil Broomy.*

Tdirm2:Is everybody insane except me?

Tdifan: *Points to NinjaIzzy and Chimmy and whispers to Tdirm2* Those two scare me......

Chimmy: I HEARD THAT!! I picked it up through my supersonic hearing. I am NOT crazy! Now excuse me while I mourn my dearly departed broom friend. *Goes back to mourning*

Rocky: *arrives* Don't wanna be some fanfic writing idiot!

Tdifan: Hey, Rocky! *high fives Rocky*

NIzzy: I'm not crazy I'm just depressed and I did'nt kill anyone! He's just KO'd!!!!

Chimmy: ...Could it be? Mr. Broomy?

Mr.Broomy: *Hops up*

Chimmy:HE'S ALIIVE!! MR. BROOMY LIVES TO SWEEP ANOTHER DAY! (XD)

NIzzy: I thought I had mental problems...

Tdifan: Oh, don't worry! You still have mental problems! *points to Chimmy* She just has more! XD

NIzzy: Okay I can deal with that...*get out gun that shoots chainsaw's* MWAHA!!!

Tdifan:*runs away*

NIzzy: *laughs* I was'nt gonna shoot anyone why do you think my parents let me have a gun!

Chimmy: Uhh...Tdifan, I'm a she. But even though I have mental problems, no Mental Institution can hold me!

Random nurse: Time to go night-night, Chimmy...

Chimmy: NEVER!! CHIMMY GOES NIGHT-NIGHT WHEN CHIMMY PLEASES!!! *Runs off to Tibet with Mr. Broomy.*

Tdirm2:The first challenge cannot come too early.

Sorrel: *appears as usual* who are these people i mean i reconginze her *points to TDifan* and him *points to Rocky* and you 2 *points to Sunshine and Sprinkle*

Cards: I'm so glad to be here!! I hope I don't get the boot first!!

Sorrel: *acting ditzy like lindasy* who are you???

Chimmy:I don't know how to explain the others to Sorrel, but I'm Chimchar2356025. I'm a newcomer who wants to become a better writer. By the way, does anyone want some Blubber Nuggets I picked up in Tibet? Mmmmmm, they're chewy!

Tdafan:Sorrel,Tdifan,Rocky we need to make sure TBTDIF is the first voted off.You in???

Sorrel: hi chimchar uh 23456

Chimmy:It's 2356025. Oh, and Tdafan, I'd gladly join you if it means not getting kicked off 1st!

Tdafan:Thanks Chimmy Im gonna go out and catch some waves before our challenge

Chimmy:I'll give you a jar to aid in the process! (Bad pun alert!)

Tdafan:ok then...*starts surfing*

Sunshine: Welcome to this season's 16 aspiring authors!!! Sprinklemist and I will determine the teams soon, then the first challenge will start tommorow!

Sorrel: (tomorrows?!? me be busy... ill try to get my entry in) k bye bye sunshine!~

Oweguy: Hey. Rocky joined. I hope he'll do better this season.

Dominator: Hi, I am Nalyd's real life friend. Nalyd told me that I could talk now since we had gotten enough sign-ups... Hi everyone.

Cards: Hi!!! Hey Sunshine when does the first challenge start?

Oweguy: Sunshine just woke up. -__-

Chimmy:I know how that feels. I woke up 20 minutes ago and my brother is already outside...

NIzzy: I woke up a couple of hours ago *eye twichs*

Oweguy: This morning I woke up at around 9:00.

Chimmy: Mr. Broomy woke up at 6:30 and is out taking tap dancing lessons. :D

Oweguy: I'll hate it when I have to wake up for school in the morning. X(

Chimmy: Me too! Especially since they changed the start time to 7:20. Now I have to wake up at 5:30!

NIzzy: I love school! *eye twitches*

Chimmy:Me too, but it's the early wake-up-call that irks me.

Oweguy: WHA?!

Chimmy: Think about it this way: You can't get to where you want to be if you don't have the smarts to do it. Oh, and by the way, BEST FRIEND in MY CLASS! BOO YAH!!

Chimmy:But I get up so late that I usually have no energy when I wake up early...I'm pretty sure I'm nocternal. Am I the only one here who's still wide awake at 11:24 pm?

Tdirm2: When is the first challenge going to be posted? I'm getting anxious.

NIzzy: Umm Why are you getting anxious?

Tdirm2:Because I wanna write!

NIzzy: Yeah I got that but you can't rush camps.

Oweguy: (Sighs) Things won't be the same without Nalyd.

Sunshine: Alright, thanks to Sprinkemist, we have our teams! Anonymos, Tdi, Chimchar, Sorrel, Dominator, Tdifan, Rocky, and Cards777 are the '''WRITING GOPHERS!!! Turnertang, TBTDIF, NIzzy, Cokeman11, Tdiandrockmusic2, Oweguy, Tdafan123, and Usigtz are the TYPING BASS!!! '''The competiton has officially begun!!!

Oweguy: I sure hope me and the others will try and make the Typing bass win this season. They didn't win once at all last season.

Dominator: Come on team, let's do this. Don't let Sunshine down. We just gotta keep busting out stories and make sure we win.

Anonymos: Um... I follow the episodes as they are aired on television... I have no idea about eliminations up until episode 14... What should I do instead?

Chimmy:If you want to, you could look on the Total Drama Wiki. If not, then I don't know.

Chimmy:Then again, I did place all the current characters in my story...

Anonymos: I'll just look at the eliminations. It's okay. I'll live.

Tdirm2:I've got my story typed up, just need to copy it to here, that could probably be in an hour or two. Also, Oweguy, WE SHALL BRING GLORY TO THINGS WITH BASS IN IT!!!!!!!!!

Chimmy:I know Bass victory is inevitable, maybe this week, maybe the next, but sometime. For now, let's try to win, Gophers!

Sorrel: ya we will win!

Chimmy: Hey, how come everyone I made friends with is on the other team except Sorrel? 0_o

Cards: I'll be your friend!

Chimmy:Thanks!

Tdirm2: Tdafan, are you trying to butter up Sunshine? If so, niiiice.

Tdafan:I just wanted to add some humor

Tdirm2: Im really nervous that I'll be voted out because nobody knows me except for the hosts and Anonymos. Am I just paranoid?

Tdifan: GO GOPHERS! GO GOPHERS! *does the LeShawna/Noah/Owen dance*

Tdafan:(CONF)I hope we win if we dont i bet ill be voted off

Sorrel: *caramelldansens* waka waka laka!!!!! na na na na na na *goes into insane random mode* who ha who ha na na na na na na na shes my best friend something somthine tickle in my tummy it tastes so yummy LA LA LA LA (dont even ask....)

Oweguy:(CONF) Actually. I think I should lead my team. I was on a winning team last season. I'll try not to get voted off.

Tdi: GO WRITING GOPHERS!!!!! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tdafan:I think Oweguy should be team captin

Sorrel: go gophers!!!

Tdafan:keep cheering,as long as TBTDIF gets voted off ill be happy

Tdirm2:(CONF) Oweguy said that he should be leader. I disagree, you don't need a leader when success depends on people he doesn't know in real life.

Cards:(CONF) I really think that the Writing Gophers can win this challenge!

Chimmy:(CONF) What's up with all the confessionals lately? Any way, TDIRM, I don't like what you just said. I don't know your backround or anything, so I'm gonna cut you some slack. But how does Dom's accountlessness affect his writing abillity? And so what about Sorrel's past? Just because she hasn't won anything doesn't mean she won't win this! And just because I'm a newcomer doesn't mean I don't have any potential! If the phrase "Do unto others as you would have others do unto you." gets called into play, no offense, but you're gonna be in a world of hurt pretty soon.

Tdafan:*is asleep,waiting for the results*

Tdirm2: Wait, somebody else wrote that, I acually wrote the first two sentences then I left for a minute without saving. Somebody else in my life said the rest. Oh gosh I apologize for that, I deleted the offending part.

Dominator: Way to go team, lets keep up the good work.

(CONF) Dominator: I don't remember Total Drama Author having confessionals... Whatever. I think I might be the best author on the team. I've got potential nobody else knows about. I may just win! Hopefully my IP status will not be used against me.

TBTDIF: Who said I should be voted off? That wasn't cool, Tdafan. This is a writing contest. And do you believe I have good writing or what? Why do you want me out, any fricking way?

Dominator: TBTDIF, calm down. If you get angry chances are even more likely they'll try to vote you off....

Tdafan:To tell you the truth you arent exactly nice

Tdirm2:(CONF) Why is everybody ganging up on TBTDIF? What wrong has he done?

Chimmy:TDIRM, I accept your apology. But if anything like it happens again...Oh, and Dom, if anyone tries to use your IP status against you, you can count on me to stand up for you, my friend.

Sprinklemist: Tdafan, TBTDIF never did anything against you (to my knowledge), try not to stir up trouble. Everyone try to remain civil toward each other, please.

Sorrel: so when does challenge end

Sprinklemist: Whenever Sunshine protects the page and tells me what team I'm reviewing. Lol.

Sunshine: So much drama week one... guys, PLEASE don't gang up on each other. This is a new season, a clean slate, we're all starting over. On a happier note, I'm protecting the page now, the challenge is officially over! Sprinkle and I will do reviews and discuss the winning team, and then the bottom two poll will be put up. Good luck everyone!

Oweguy: We won! We won the first challenge! The Typing Bass actually won for once.

Chimmy:Wait-MY STORY WAS GOOD!? OMG HOLY CRAP!!! *Faints* (Hey, I said Bass victory was inevitible, and it happened. Let's give it our all next time, Gophers! And my problems are pretty easy to correct. Converting from past tense to present is hard in a long story, and I sometimes forget to press enter twice on the wiki. And that was honestly one of my best stories I ever wrote. Next time, I'm going full force!)

Sorrel: ya it was chimmy

Chimmy: *Is still KO'd*

Chimmy:*Wakes up* Wait- someone voted for me in the poll? Is it because I stunk in their opinion, or am I a threat?

Sorrel: prob a threat

Chimmy:Well, that makes me fell a bit better, but if I'm a threat, doesn't it make more sense to keep me to help our team win, then you eliminate me when the merge comes??

Tdafan:(CONF)Its two of my best friends here up for the vote*sigh*either way its gonna suck for me

Chimmy:*Pats tdafan on the back* It's okay dude. Wait-I DID'T GET ELIMINATED! YES!!! LIFELONG GOAL NUMBER 1 COMPLETE! NEXT GOAL:BUILD DEVICE THAT CAN EXTRACT DUNCAN FROM THE TELEVIsION!!! (XD!!)

NIzzy: Holy crap! *randomly puts hand in the TV and pulls Duncan out*

Tdafan:*starts singing its sucks to be me*

NIzzy: *sings with tdafan*

Tdafan:(CONF)i never meant to try to vote out TBTDIF I just wanted people to see that im not an underdog like they think

NIzzy: *smashes head into conf* Aw I don't think your an underdog! your one of the only people who can be as crazy as me without there head going BOOM!!!! *giggles* (LOL)

Chimmy:*rocks out to I Am...All of Me* (XD)

TBTDIF: Guys, stop pretending there's a confessional. There is none, as there has NEVER, EVER, EVER been ANY!!!!!!!!!!

NIzzy: Gee sorry.

Tdafan:Yeesh calm down.Now I might have a reason to vote you out

Dominator: TBTDIF, calm down. Dude, you are getting angry over NOTHING! Please, it makes it unpleasant to do this camp when you keep getting easily annoyed. And Sunshine and Sprinklemist will tell us if there is or isn't a confessional. This isn't your camp. Please, just calm down.

NIzzy: I agree.

Tdafan:Exactly what I was thinking Dominator

TBTDIF: I didn't really mean anger, I just was...well, I guess there's no point in explaining it.

Tdafan:Next time say it calmly ok?(CONF)If he keeps this up he is gonna be next

NIzzy: *sigh*

Cards: What's wrong NIzzy?

Tdafan:You ok?*walks to NIzzy*

NIzzy: Er yeah.

Tdafan:*sigh*I dont know what to do my best friends are the bottom 2!!!Should I quit this thing

Dominator: Listen up, Gophers. I say that when we win we all have to agree on who to vote for in the poll. That way we can decide one person in their bottom two. What do you guys think?

Tdafan:i like that idea

Dominator: Tdafan, you are a Bass. Why would you betray your own team?

Chimmy:Uhhh...I like it!

Tdafan:ohh I got mixed up.So Bass if you want Oweguy as our captain say I. I!!!!

Challenge 1
This week's challenge is to make up episode 14 of Total Drama Action. The challenge, elimination, etc. can be whatever you want. However, please stay in continuity with the other episodes (ie. Don't have Trent there when he's already been eliminated). Other than that, you can do whatever you please! If you need to look at what happened in past TDA episodes, you can look on the Total Drama Wiki. The story is due on Thursday, which, unless stated otherwhise, will always be the due date for stories. Good luck!

Sprinklemist's Reviews (Writing Gophers)
Anonymos - A very good story, and very plausible. I absolutely loved the challenge idea (the mystery genre is my favorite), and your sense of humor fit the tone of the actual show (lol at the evidence that was Chef's). Everyone was perfectly in character. As for the negative, I noticed two grammatical errors toward the beginning, and I thought the start of the story was pretty slow paced. I wish that the challenge came sooner, as that's when the story truly began for me. Overall, the positive outweighs the negative.

Tdi - I really enjoyed the way you began the story with a recap of the previous actual episode. This grounded the story in reality from the beginning. You had a creative and plausible challenge idea. The only thing I noticed that was negative was spelling and tense. You had a few spelling errors, and while you tried to remain in present tense, you slipped up a few times. One instance is the final sentence, which says in part, "Chris said as it ends". Overall, I think you are a strong competitor. If you fix these small mistakes, I think you'll only improve.

Chimchar - I'm impressed. Your story was original, sweet, and pretty funny. I liked the challenge idea, and the way that you actually had Justin do something. To me there were two glaring problems, though. One problem was that you kept switching between present tense and past tense, keep an eye on that. The other problem is that you would write a paragraph and have two characters speak within it. A paragraph never should have two characters speaking in it, unless under specific circumstances. Your writing will be even better if you try to correct these kinds of mistakes.

Sorrel - I love the fact that you wrote in separate paragraphs. It makes the story easier to read, and nicer to look at. Unfortunately, your story is marred by a lot of spelling and grammar mistakes. It made the story fairly confusing. Proofread, proofread, proofread.

Dominator - This story was really good. I enjoyed a lot of things about it. Everyone was in character (Beth was really funny), and the challenge ideas were clever. You are a very good writer. The only thing I can criticize is some fairly minor spelling mistakes. Things like saying "to" instead of "two". "Of" instead of "off". "LeShawa" instead of "LeShawna" (that one made me lol). Proofreading will help there, as those are fairly common mistakes. But overall the story was great. Keep it up.

tdifan - I can honestly say that this was my favorite story. Your grammar and spelling was fantastic. It had my favorite title. I was enjoying everything immensely, until... It ended right in the middle. I'm really sorry that you couldn't finish in time. It's hard to compare your story to the completed ones, but at least you started.

Rocky - I'm really sorry that you were unable to post a story. Especially, when almost everyone else was able to.

Cards777 - Your story was fine. I liked the recap of the previous episode. There were a few grammar problems, though. I could tell that you changed your wording, and forgot to erase what you were replacing. Also, I think that the dialogue could have been spiced up a little. I did like the "Lindsay look it's a mall!" part, although it was missing some punctuation. I thought that the structure of your story was solid, but you made some errors in that regard. You, I assume accidentally, placed two different people talking in the same paragraph.

Sunshine's Reviews (Typing Bass)
Turnertang- Nice work, this was a great challenge idea, and you put across the characters’ personalities very well. You had some very minor grammar issues, though, like forgetting the closing quotation mark in a few sentences, and some sentences could have been two sentences instead of one. Also, you referred to Duncan as a “she” at one point, LOL. Finally, the beginning seemed somewhat abrupt. I think it would have been better if you’d had a recap at the beginning. Overall, if you had fixed those issues, this would have been perfect.

Thebiggesttdifan- This was great! Your spelling and grammar was excellent. The musical challenge was great. And I loved that the monster came back! The characters were all written well, and the ending twist was incredible! Excellent job overall!

NIzzy- This was a good challenge idea, the characters were written well, and it was really funny! But… please don’t use script format. Like, don’t use (Conf) and *At the caves*, use “[person] said in the confessional” and “Later, at the caves, [whatever happens]”. You also had some minor grammar problems, like forgetting commas, and some minor spelling issues. Make sure to fix those next time.

COKEMAN11- This was hilarious, and a great idea for a challenge! Those poor interns! I also loved Izzy’s brief return, though I didn’t understand why she was about to faint. The way you wrote the characters was great as well. However, like NIzzy, please don’t use script format. Except for that, though, it was great!

Tdiandrockmusic2- This was great! Duncan-Heather??? So dramatic!!! The challenge and characters were great as well! The only problem was some minor grammar stuff, like forgetting commas. Also, there was when you wrote part of a sentence, ended it with a comma, then had someone talking in the next paragraph. I’m not sure if that’s grammatically incorrect or not, but it did look odd. Overall, nice work!

Oweguy- Nice job with the challenge idea and characters. You did have some grammar issues, though. There was also something I think was a mistake at the beginning- “Owen did not do anything wrong.” repl. “Owen did not do anything wrong.” replying Beth a bit upset. My guess is that this was an accident either while writing or posting. Also, please don’t clump everything into one paragraph, it makes it much easier to read.

Tdafan123- This was a good challenge idea, and parts of this were funny, like Courtney crashing after seeing Justin with his shirt off and Duncan breaking up with Courtney for Sunshine. However, you had MAJOR spelling and grammar issues throughout the story. Also, like Owe, please don’t stick everything in one paragraph.

Usitgz- Murder mystery! Great!!! This story was hilarious, and your spelling and grammar was great. The characters were written well, it was a great challenge idea, and I loved Detective Lindsay!!! However, it seemed to end rather abruptly, and I would have liked it if, instead of talking about how someone did or said something, have them actually say or do it. Other than that, great!!!

Results
Sunshine: Okay... Sprinklemist and I have made our decision. The winner of this challenge is... The Typing Bass! Congratulations! Gophers... all of you are now susceptible to elimination. A poll will be put up, and the two Gophers with the most votes will be in the bottom two. One of those two will be eliminated from Total Drama Author 3. Good luck to you all.

Sprinklemist: Suspectable. Lol!

Sunshine: ...I used the wrong word again, didn't I? (I can write, but I can't talk, LOL XD)

Sprinklemist: I think you were going for "susceptible". Here I am criticizing the main host. &gt;_&lt;

Sunshine: OH!!! Right!!! XD *changes it* All better! XD

Gophers Vote
Who should be in the bottom 2 this week? Anonymos Tdi Chimchar Sorrel Dominator Tdifan Rocky Cards777

Sunshine: All right, the votes have been cast, and our bottom two is... Rocky and Tdifan. Each of you, please give arguments to stay, and tommorow Sprinklemist and I will decide which one of you is going home.

The Decision
Sunshine: Alright... this was a hard decision. But in the end, the one leaving is... Rocky. I'm sorry you weren't able to finish your story, but in the end we couldn't keep you over someone who'd started their story. Bye, dude.

Week 2
Sunshine: Ready for the next challenge, guys?

Cards: Heck yeah!

Anonymos: You know it, girlfriend! (Snaps fingers.)

Oweguy: Ready to do the second challenge. (Sunshine. Please update the elimination chart.)

TBTDIF: I know I'm leaving if my team loses. But we can't lose. We've got...um...me...and...other guys who are pretty good writers!

Dominator: Gophers, when we win this week we need to all agree who to vote for on the Bass team. I say we pick their best player. With their best player in the bottom two, the other person will automatically go! It's genius! *laughs evilly* (LOL, I guess Nalyd's rubbed off on me)

Oweguy: Bass, we should try and win again like first challenge. Work hard and we'll beat those gophers!

Tdafan:*sighs*(CONF)I dont know if I should quit or not.If Tdifan goes next i probably will

Chimmy:It's okay, Tdafan. Whatever happens, I'll be there to lend a hand. *I'll Be There by the Jackson 5 starts playing*

Tdafan:thanks,Chimmy it means alot.But Im still thinking about it

Tdafan:*watching TV*

TV:In a world where people say weird stuff

Person:yeathatdangoldcarwontgovroomvroommanyouknow

Tdirm2: Hey everybody *pauses TV*. NIzzy, Tdafan, kindly stop giving me edit conflicts. I just had my EIGHTH ONE!

Tdafan:Oops*plays TV*

NIzzy: Sorry I probaly did it again.

Tdafan:SHHHHHHH

TV:he will discover...NOTHING!!!!.ON October 468...take shelter for DANGOLDSOMETHING

Tdirm2: STOP IT STOP IT STOP IT!!!

Tdafan:Stop what??

Tdirm2: Stop giving me edit conflicts! Let somebody else talk.

Tdafan:Calm down or you could be next

Sorrel: guys calm down i always get edit conflicts and its N O R M A L

Tdafan:*is about to punch Tdirm2*

Sorrel: and we are here to make friends *glares at tdafan* and not be made at each other because of edit conflicts *glares at Tdrim2*

Tdafan:Whatever*walks away*(CONF)Why is everyone here so annoying.If this keeps up I will quit

Sorrel: so sunshine when is our next assigniment

Tdafan:Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr*punches tdirm2 but misses*

Sorrel: *grabs his arm* what did i say....

Tdafan:Dont tell me what to do

Sorry Tdafan, it's just that I was frustrated because I got 12 edit conflicts, and when I get edit conflicts it screws up my computer for a moment. So sorry for losing my cool a minute ago, I calmed down then started typing this.

Tdafan:Im sorry too(CONF)Im so quiting next week

Sorrel:..........................

Sprinklemist: Guys. Please, calm down. The chat sections don't need to be edited so often. What if someone types up their story and tries to post it and gets an edit conflict and loses everything they typed (it's happened to me before...)? Also, don't make threats, like, "If you do blah blah you'll get voted out next time". This is not a popularity contest and Sunshine and I make the elimination decisions ultimately...

Tdafan:I might not have mine this week (Sprinklemist: This section is for chatting)

Chimmy: (CONF) I really like tdafan. I'd be okay with whatever decision he makes, but I'd prefer he stays. He's a great author and a great pal to have around. I can't make him stay or go, I knew that from the beginning, but whatever he thinks is the best for him, I'll go with it.

Tdafan:Im really close to quitting

Sprinklemist: Stay in the competition and try your hardest. Think about the people that wanted to compete, but missed the sign ups. Your quitting wouldn't be fair to them.

Tdafan:My decison will be made by the end of week 4

Tdirm2: You know what, I've always wanted to be tagged. I don't know why, but I do.

Tdafan:*sits down and watches TV*

TBTDIF: What is up with everyone lately? All these actions, rudeness, and...actions. Where's Nalyd? Where's Gigi? Where's TDI19? Where's Sprinky and Sunny's awesome stories? Where is everyone from last season? Really, where?

Tdafan:(CONF)I am so sick of these people yelling and other crap.I might quit early

Sunshine: Nalyd passed along hosting to us, I won last season, Sprinklemist was runner up and is just plain awesome enough to host, Gigi decided not to enter this season a while ago, TDI19 just kinda disappeared, and I guess most of the season 1 vets missed signups...

Tdafan:*whisper to NIzzy*Now I wanna vote off TBTDIF

TBTDIF: *tries to act as cool and calm as possible* I...uh...heard you, tdafan. For...um...um...what?

Tdafan:I think you should chill out(CONF)Psycho

TBTDIF: Wow, I thought I was gonna be the main antagonist this season, just like last one.

Tdafan:Yeah yeah yeah

Dominator: I thought with my epic strategy I'd be considered an "antagonist." (Nalyd mentioned how having a strategy will have you pegged for life.) Remember Gophers, '''if we win we all have to agree on which of there players is the best and vote for them. Then, whoever is the other bottom two member will automatically go home. '''(Sorry that's in bold, it's just only one person saw it last time...)

Tdirm2: I don't know what people would consider me as. I'd say an anti-hero. Also, Tdafan, don't quit, it's a honor to be here, Zakkeroen was very ticked off by being unable to join.

Sunshine: Wow, almost half the people whose bios are up so far used names that start with J... weird...

Chimmy: Weird...OMG IT'S A SIGN OF THE APOCALYPSE!!!! RUN TO THE CORN DOG SHELTER!!! (No comment...)

CK11: Corn dogs are bad for your colon...OR ARE THEY??? I reccomend we head to the stuffed elephant emporium. Then we can buy lawn mowers. (I'm COKEMAN11, on other wikis, I'm known as CK11 ffor my nickname)

Chimmy: THER"S NOT MUCH TIME LEFT! GET TO THE STUFFED ELEPHANT EMPORIUM BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE!!!

Shadow the Hedgehog: *Appears* Well, might as well do this. CHAOS...CONTROL!!! *Teleports everyone to the stuffed elephant emporioum, including himself, the hosts, and Duncan, who is still out of the television*

Tdirm2:What just happened?

Sunshine: SHADOW!!!!!!! *tacklehugs*

Shadow:GET OFF OF ME!!! *Chaos Blasts, to no avail*

Chimmy:*Picks up Duncan* Sorry, Dunc. *Throws Duncan at Sunshine*

Sunshine: *grabs Duncan as he's thrown at her, without letting go of Shadow* EEEEEE!!!!!! NOW I HAVE BOTH OF THEM!!!!!!! (LOL, just 'cause I'm a host, doesn't mean I have to act like it... right? RIGHT???)

Chimmy:*Grabs crowbar and tries to pry Sunshine off. The crowbar breaks*

Shadow:THAT"S IT!!! *Uses Chaos Emeralds to transform into Super Shadow* CHAOS...CONTROL!! *Teleports Sunshine into space and flies around at the speed of sound*

Sunshine: *randomly falls back to earth, unharmed, sees Shadow gone, cries uncontrollably, notices Duncan, tacklehugs him* (LOL)

Courtney: STAY AWAY FROM MY MAN, SISTER!!! *tackles Sunshine*

Duncan:I love that woman. (Sorry, Sunshine, he means Courtney.)

Sunshine: Oh yeah, well... *randomly transports to Sonic world, grabs Knuckles, comes back, throws Knuckles at Courtney* (LOL)

Chimmy: *Steps in between slap-fighting Knuckles and Courtney* BREAK IT UP!! *Knocks Knuckles, Sunshine, and Courtney out with powerful blast of fire and is randomly transported to ARK*

Chimmy:*Arrives*

Shadow: Hey, just wanted to say thanks for trying to break me free. *Notices Chimmy looks a bit like Maria Robotnik, smiles*

Chimmy: No prob. I think I could hook you up with a hot chick. *Shows Shadow photo of black hedgehog with red streaks and purple fishnet gloves*

Shadow: *Eyes turn to black hearts*

Sunshine: *flies past window of ARK* SHADOW-AMY FOREVER!!!!! AND IF THAT DOESN'T WORK OUT, ME-SHADOW FOREVER!!!!!!! (LOL, rabid Shadow-Amy supporter)

Shadow:Uhh...how did SHE get here? Anyways, what's the chick's name?

Chimmy:If you mean the Ravioli Pixie, Sunshine. If you mean the hedgehog, Brittney.

Sunshine: *randomly behind Shadow* I got here 'cause I'm magic. That's my answer when you ask how I got in, too. SHADOW!!!!! *tacklehugs*

Tdafan:*standing next to chimmy*So....

Chimmy:Tdafan, don't tell me you're magic too. BUT I AM!!! *Dissapears into flames, comes back with Brittney*

Shadow: Holy hotness!!! *Breaks free from Sunshine using DA POWA OF LOVE!!!* (XD) *Love Story randomly plays*

Brittney:Do you guys hear that? By the way, what's your name?

Shadow:I'm Shadow. Nice to meet you. *Chaos controls Brittney and him to romantic setting*

Chimmy: Awwwwww...(By the way, when I was typing nice to meet you, I accidentaly typed up nice to MEAT you.)

Tdafan:Chimmy,who do you want out next?

Chimmy:It depends. But TBTDIF hasn't exactly been friendly IMO.

Shadow:*is happy for the first time since Maria died because Brittney is now his girlfriend*♥

Shadow:*sigh*I feel like I could take on the world for Brittney...I'm in love.

Chimmy:Just to clarify...is there going to be a Playa des Authors 3???

Shadow:*is daydreaming about Brittney*

Chimmy:I seem to be the only one commenting...I'm bored. *lightbulb goes over head* Got it!!! *Whispers in Shadow's ear* (Wait, where ARE his ears?)

Shadow:...Fine, what the heck. I'm so in love, I could even put up with that Ravioli Pixie! (LOL Sunshine nip) *Teleports, brings back Sonic, Amy, Knuckles, Blaze, and Silver*

Sonic:*Lends Chimmy pair of no-friction shoes*

Cheese the Chao: *Is refferee, waves checkered flag* (LOL)

Everybody:*Starts race* (By the way, the apocalypse is over and we are back on Earth now! Plus, Shadow helped to fix everything up again.Not only that, he also took the time to stop global warming!!! YAY FOR SHADOW!!! Oh, and Duncan is in the race too, Shadow lent him a pair of his shoes. I just realized that Jamie will have to put up with Yu-gi-oh during TD:TM!)

Sunshine: *randomly shows up with a box of donuts* ...I missed something. What did I miss? o.O

Chimmy:*while running* The Sonic people and I decided to have a race. Whoever makes it to Japan first wins! *Grabs donut from box, turns into Hyper Chimmy, runs even faster, leaving trail of fire behind her*

Shadow:*Crosses finish line milliseconds before Hyper Chimmy and Sonic, who is being chased by Amy. Blaze and Silver are holding hands in LA, Rouge stole the Master Emerald and Knuckles had to stop her so he never finished, Duncan is just behind Amy*

Brittney:*kisses Shadow*

Shadow:*Is so overjoyed that he lets Sunshine tacklehug him*

Hyper Chimmy:*turns back into regular Chimmy* Awwwww...Brittney and Shadow make the perfect couple. (Sorry it took so long. We got tired around Arizona and stopped at a Sonic drive-in. But Blaze and Silver ran strait to Pasedana...)

(Conf.) Usitgz: What the heck is going on here, with all these Sonic characters running around. I'm going to lose it!

Knuckles:*punches through confessional, the blow barely missing Usitgz's head* You'll pay for that, you little creep! *Chases Usitgz* (Sorry if that seemed rude or anything, it's totally intended to be humorous.)

Chimmy:*still has Sonic's shoes, runs over and stops Knuckles from hurting Usitgz* STOP IT!!! *Is not strong enough, until Sunshine trips and a donut flies out of her pocket, landing directly in Chimmy's mouth, transforming her into Hyper Chimmy(LOL). Lets out huge blast of fire at Knuckles, knocking him out, transforms back into normal Chimmy* Oh, NO!!! What have I DONE!!! *takes Knuckles to random burn center across the street*

Chimmy:*at burn center* *yawn*. So...tired...need...pancakes...

Random Nurse Dude(LOL):You said you wanted to see him wake up. He just decided to do it at 3:00 in the morning.

Knuckles: *wakes up* Aw, great, what did Chimmy do to me?

Random Nurse Dude:2nd degree burns all over your body, to be exact. She also brought you the this burn center, and pretty much did all the work the docters were supposed to. How did you even know to do that?

Chimmy: Cousin burned his arm on a grill last week. (Not really guys, that never actually happened. Pure fiction.)

Knuckles:*chuckles*(Hey it rhymes!!!) Well, I'll be. I guess...thanks. *shakes Chimmy's hand*

Chimmy:No prob, dude. *Shakes back*

Dominator: GOPHERS!!! We need to vote off Tdafan, TBTDIF, or Turntertang if we win. Tdanfan is thinking of quitting. It wouldn't be fair for them to beat other people, and then quit. TBTDIF has been rude, and is good at writing. Turnertang is their best author

Tdafan:IVE MADE MY DECISION!!!!!!!! And I will tell you...right after this commercial break!!!!!!!

TBTDIF: Don't be like that, Chimchar2350678. I think we're all pretty equal with our writing.

Tdi: Go Gophers!!!!!

Sunshine: *uses random magic portal to send Sonic characters back to wherever they came from, except for Shadow, who she stuffs in a box and mails back to her place (LOL)* Challenge over, guys! Sprinklemist isn't here to judge, so I'll be the only one doing reviews this week.

Dominator: Gophers! Vote for TBTDIF or Tdafan123!!!

Tdafan:IM NOT QUITTING

Dominator: *shrugs* So? We'll vote for you for being a threat then.

NIzzy: Excuse me but that’s a little harsh you can’t just pick on people Dominator!

Dominator: I don't pick on people. Besides, Tdafan and TBTDIF are so good Sunshine won't pick either of them for elimination until later on, if even then. I'm just playing the game to my full ability.

Sunshine: I have to side with Dominator here, he's playing a strati... strati... strati... a smart game. (FAIL XD) He's not doing anything against the rules.

Dominator: Sunshine, when does the vote end?

Sunshine: Later today.

Chimmy: I guess all that cheering helped, Gophers! Let's try to bring it home again next time! Oh, and tdafan, hopefully you won't get voted off, cause even though we are on opposite teams, you're still an amazing friend, and nothing can change that.

TBTDIF: I have to say, the Gophers did a nice job.

Chimmy:Thanks!!! Anyone else crazy enough to be awake past midnight where I am? FWEE!!!

CK11: The Gophers did well.

Chimmy:YAY!!! MORE COMPLIMENTS!!! YAY!!! *hops around clapping* RAINBOW DREAMS!!! Wait, huh?

Tdirm2: Question, when will either CK11 or TBTDIF be eliminated and the next challnge announced?

TBTDIF: Wait, how did Tdafan get a part in this?

Sunshine: I didn't feel like you or CK11 deserved to be eliminated, and Tdafan had a large amount of votes, so I decided I needed to hear from... him... her... is Tdafan a guy or a girl?

Tdafan:Im a guy and Im sorry if i dissapointed people

CK11: Bass, if I'm not eliminated, I have a plan if we win the next challenge...it involves an alliance...

Challenge 2
This week's challenge is to come up with a character profile, for either the character on the left, or the character on the right (both drawn by Sunshineandravioli). This profile needs to include a name for the character, biography of the character's background, a glimpse at their personality, and why they are going to appear on the Total Drama series (either by auditioning, or some other method). We would like to see creativity, originality, and believability. Make it clear which character you'll be using. Don't change anything about the character models. This "story" is due Thursday.

Writing Gophers
Anonymos- Excellent! You went deep into the character’s background and personality, and were able to give us a good reason why she was auditioning. I felt that this was extremely creative and original, and personally, I felt the situation she was in was a believable one. Great job!

Tdi- I like this guy’s basic personality. The idea of an insane tough guy is funny! But… you didn’t really flesh him out after that, or give him any background. Also, in the audition, you completely ignored pretty much all rules of grammar- no quotation marks, forgetting a period in one place, and using script format for his actions. Finally, you named your character Jim, but at the beginning of the audition, he said “Hi, I’m Mike!” Overall, this was a good idea that needed a lot of improvement.

Chimchar- This character was HILARIOUS! Her background was extremely detailed and explained a lot of her personality, which you also described well. Her audition was, in my opinion, one of the best, and her reason for auditioning made a lot of sense. It was also extremely funny. “Uh, Chris? I think the wind blew your door shut.” Classic! Excellent work overall!

Sorrel- This was a very creative idea, and your background for the character was great. It really made her reason for auditioning make sense. However, the character herself didn’t have much personality; it just seemed a kind of general label rather than an in-depth look at her personality. Also, please proofread your stories before posting them. You had some grammar issues throughout, especially in the audition; there were some spelling errors (ie. “transplat” instead of “transplant”); and you used script format for actions. In the end, it was a good idea that would have been even better had you fixed these things.

Dominator- Nice job, and extremely creative idea! His background was fairly detailed, and even though you didn’t have a section describing his personality, it still came across well. Having his grandparents do the audition for him was hilarious. “It says on this pamphlet ‘Crazy Kids Wanted’.” That was great! The trivia section was nice as well, seeming to solidify him as an actual character. Keep it up!

Tdifan- This was a very creative character! Though his personality and background wasn’t extremely in-depth, it still described well and made the character seem real. His audition was funny as well! However, please, don’t use script format, which you used during his audition. Other than that, though, nice work!

Cards777- Pyromaniac! Awesome! This was a very original character. His detailed background explains his personality extremely well, his reason for joining TDI is believable, and his audition was hilarious with his parents begging the producers to accept him! Nice work overall!

Typing Bass
Turnertang- Great idea for a character! The audition was hilarious too. However, you didn’t really go too deep into his personality or background, only really giving us a short glimpse at his character. Also, I notice you seem to have run-on sentences in your writing- what could easily be multiple sentences is clumped into one. Make sure to read over your work before you post; if you have more than one or two “and”s in one sentence, it’s a good sign it’s a run-on sentence and you should split it up into multiple sentences.

Thebiggesttdifan- This was probably the most detailed background of anyone’s character. You gave a truly detailed insight to her past and explained how she ended up applying to TDI. However, her personality wasn’t really described at all, just her past. Also, two things didn’t really make sense to me- one, I didn’t understand the line “Before she knew it, Taña was delivered a tasty meal for breakfast, but that didn’t last long because she had to hop into a taxi for various opera performances.” What did breakfast have to do with it? Two, I don’t understand what her uncle’s motivations were in sending her to the orphanage, or how her mother was involved. Other than those points, this was pretty good, I just wish she had been given more of a personality.

NIzzy- This was a fairly good character, and pretty creative. His personality was unique and described pretty well, and though his background wasn’t extremely detailed, it was just detailed enough. His audition was great as well, perfectly displaying his softer side and the pressure put on him by his dad. However, make sure to double check your grammar before you post. You had some grammar issues, forgot some punctuation, etc. Overall, nice work, except for the grammar issues.

COKEMAN11- This was a good idea, and you hit all the requirements. However… it was extremely skimpy in the details department. Though you described everything, you didn’t get very far into it, and it felt like more than a brief summary of a character rather than a real look at them. In particular, her personality was very brief and didn’t give a really good look at what she was like. I really wish you had given more details, as it would have made the biography a lot better.

Tdiandrockmusic2- This was definitely one of the more original characters. Extremely creative with the MPD, and his background is a great explanation of how it happened. His duel personality, as well, seems to almost create a “two-characters-for-the-price-of-one” thing. His audition tape was a perfect way to end it, showing off both ends of his personality and the vast difference between them. The description of his hair made me LOL. Excellent work!

Oweguy- This was a pretty unique character. Though you didn’t describe his personality that well in the personality section, his audition tape made up for it. I wish there had been a little more on his background, though. The “downfall” section was a nice touch as well, and explained why we didn’t see much of this rocker during TDI. It was a nice touch to have his band playing during the audition tape as well. However, be careful about your tense- you switched between past tense (ie. “What is that racket!” shouted someone.) and present tense (ie. “So I think I should be perfect in this show!” he shouts.) Look out for that in the future.

Tdafan123- This was an okay idea, but you didn’t really give him much of a personality… and, he had no background other than skipping three grades because of his PE grade. I really wish you’d put in more details and fleshed him out more. Also, you still had quite a few spelling and grammar issues. You forgot some commas and periods, spelled “I’m” as “Im”, etc. Please double check these sorts of things before you post.

Usitgz- This was a very unique idea! His background explains his, er, “special” personality. I wish there was a little more to his personality other than thinking monsters are real, though. I love how he got onto TD:TM, though. Also, at one point he said “You’ve got to safe me” when it should have been “You’ve got to save me”. Overall, really good job, almost perfect!

Results
Sunshine: All right, I've thought long and hard, and compared the reviews of both teams, and in the end, the winner is... the Writing Gophers! Congrats! Typing Bass, you're all now up for elimination. Cross your fingers, and hope the voters don't target you. Good luck to you all.

Bass Vote
Who should be in the bottom 2 this week? Turnertang Thebiggesttdifan NIzzy COKEMAN11 Tdiandrockmusic2 Oweguy Tdafan123 Uzitgz

Sunshine: All right, with six votes apiece, the bottom two is... Thebiggesttdifan and COKEMAN11. Both of you, please give reasons to stay at TDA3.

TBTDIF's Reason to Stay
Honestly, I really believe I deserve to stay. I believe I am an extremely good writer, and the only reason I likely didn't make it further in the past two seasons is either because of a misunderstanding in my reason in the original season, and later because of rude comments.

Ah, yes--my rude comments. This, of course, is likely why people have voted me bottom two today. I can say that the reason behind all my rudeness is that I miss the quiet, peaceful loneliness that this wiki used to be. I will try my best to shape up my rudeness. Plus, I believe this is a writing camp. It's not entirely fair to vote someone off--i.e. get rid of their chances of improving their writing skills--just because they are acting rude. This is a contest, not a competition, at least in what I believe.

Okay, I got way off track, didn't I? But in a one line summary: Please let me stay. I'll try my best to stop acting rude.

COKEMAN11's Reason to Stay
I believe that I deserve to stay, not just because I want to; because I had a few conflicts this week. I've been on vacation at the beach, and really busy. I wasn't in the other 2 seasons of TDA3, and I really want to show my writing skills. Also, this is one of the first camps I've been in.I really am a great writer, and I'm just not very good at designing characters. I'm gonna be able to write my story next week, and I can't wait to see what the topic will be. If all of the Bass voted for me, I understand, my character, July, wasn't very well described. I had thought that I had met the requirements. Please let me stay, and in one statement, I think this camp will allow me to improve my characters.

Overall, I know I've said this a lot, but I am a really good writer, and I hope you think of these reasons when you think who truly deserves to go home this week.

Sunshine: This is an extremely hard decision. Both of you show a lot of promise as authors and give good reasons to stay in the game. Eliminating one of you is an extremly difficult and painful thing to do...

...which is why I'm not doing it just yet.

I need to hear from one more person this week before someone leaves. This person now has the most votes in the poll, and at one point was tied with COKEMAN11. I need to hear from... Tdafan123. You've been voted for in the poll, talked about possibly quitting, and (PLEASE no offense) have had some spelling/grammar issues in your stories so far. I need to hear from you- why should you continue on in TDA3?

Tdafan123's Reason to Stay
I think I should stay because I deserve to have some room to improve on my stories,and Im nice to people.Im not quitting so you wont wory and ill try my best next week.Im sorry if I dissapoint you but I only joined to improve and if I get out early,will I improve at all?

I also dont try to get mean but if you annoy me alot then i will get mad.Im sorry to everyone whos feelings I hurt and I hope you will see a reason to keep me in.I know I have spelling and grammar mistakes but let me improve guys please.

Thanks for your time and please save me.

The Decision
(sorry I took so long, guys, I was going to do this last night but I got off the computer)

Sunshine: All right... Sprinklemist and I have discussed this, and we have made our decision. There are three good authors in front of me, but only two of you will continue on.

The author leaving us today is...

...Tdafan123. I'm sorry we have to eliminate you, but in the end it was the best decision. I hope you'll continue to write and improve outside of the camp. Goodbye.

Week 3
Sunshine: Hello to our remaining fourteen competitors! This week's challenge will be like nothing you've ever seen before! (Sprinkle, you can put up the challenge whenever you want.)

Chimmy: *sigh...* It's too bad that tdafan had to be eliminated. But I'm going to get over it, and be ready for the next challenge!

CK11: That was a close one...on an unrelated note, I just had...EDIT CONFLICT!!! Plus, the elimination table needs to be updated.

Sunshine: Yeah... I'll do that... at least it's only a week behind!

NIzzy: *giggles*

Sunshine: Okay, now that the challenge is over... I can reveal the UBER SECRET ORIGINS OF THE TWO CHALLENGE CHARACATERS if you want. XD

NIzzy: Uber secret!!!! XD

CK11" *hypnotizes Sunshine* YOU SHALL REVEAL THE ORIGINS

Usitgz: O_o

TBTDIF: Yeah, Tdafan was almost like a Kenzen. I honestly hope he returns, because despite his somewhat lacking of good grammar and spelling, his ideas were great.

CK11: I ttly agree with that

Dominator: Gophers, if we can win this week, and the next week, I have a great feeling about this season... We just have to all keep voting together.

Sorrel: ok im not here for winning im here to show of meh skills and see other peoples writing GEEZ

TBTDIF: Why so defensive? We're not attacking you, Sorrel.

Tdirm2: When's challenge three happening? Where's Sprinkle too?

Sprinklemist: I got back from vacation, yesterday. *smiles* I think Sunshine is posting the next challenge. I'm not positive when.

Oweguy: Bass, if we win this week like the first week, I'm sure we won't be the underdogs.

Sorrel: because .. we gotta really chillax and this will be my first camp not being random and insane *in head* must go crazy!

NIzzy: If we win we vote for Domitor in the poll right?

CK11: Actually, I say we target Chimmy. (no offense, plz)

Oweguy: I'd say if we win we'll vote off Tdifan.

CK11: Chimmy's a good author, we'll be eliminating a threat.

NIzzy: I agree she's popular too.

Sorrel: *in head* must resist randomness (lawl)

Chimmy: I was afraid this would happen...come on Gophers, let's try even harder now!

Sorrel: why are we even talkin about voting someone off??

Sprinklemist: You guys seem to forget that Sunshine and I make the ultimate decision as to who to eliminate.

Chimmy: I know, but say I was in the bottom 2 with Dominator. I would probably be going home.

Chimmy:Can I do the fashion collumn?

Sorrel; yea you can im doing advice for GOPHERS!!!!

Usitgz:Can I do the Obituary, bass??

NIzzy: Yeah, I'm doing adivice for Bass.

Anonymos: Do any of the Gophers mind if I take the Where are They Now thing?

Tdirm2:Do you mind if I do Where are they nowfor the Bass.

Anonymos: If there are no objections, then I will take Where are They Now for the Gophers.

TBTDIF: May I do the comic strip for the Bass?

Turnertang: What should I do?

Chimmy: This was definintly out of my comfort zone, so I'm asking the Gopher's opinions on my artice. How is it?

Cards: I would like to do the front page for the Gophers, if that is ok with them.

CK11: I'll do Fashion for the bass.

Turnertang: I'll do the entertainment for the bass.

Dominator: Gophers, what jobs are left?

Sunshine: The challenge is over now, guys! Reviews will be up soon.

Chimmy: Uh-oh. If people carry out their threats, Me-sa in trouble. (LOL Jar-Jar Binks)

Cards: I'm sure you'll be safe! Congrats Typing Bass! You did a very good job!

Tdifan: Hey, guys. I'm sorry I wasn't able to post up an article this week. I just started high school and I had a massive amount of homework (that's what I get for being in Honors LOL). I'll try my hardest to get a story up there next week. :-)

TBTDIF: Dominator! Your reason to stay was kind of mean. Remember--this is not a competition. It is a contest. It's not to win adminship, or rollbackness, or become a co-host. In my opinion, the whole idea of this camp is to get your writing skills improved. If you're a worse writer but a better strategist then someone who you eliminated directly, is that entirely fair?

Chimmy: For once, I agree a bit with TBTDIF. If you look on the talk page, even Nalyd is worried about your arrogance. I think you are one of the best authors on the team. Just please don't try to brag about it. Oh, an I completley argree that this camp is for getting your writing skills improved, not to win adminship or any stuff like that.

Challenge 3
This week's challenge is fairly different... This one is all about teamwork. Both teams will be coming up with a cohesive newspaper that has to do with the Total Drama series. I'll list the articles that need to be included. This challenge would work best if either everyone decided who writes what article, or one person delegates, as opposed to everyone just picking what they want to do first. Here are the articles that need to be done:


 * 1) Front Page Story (The main article, most likely about something that happened on one of the latest episodes of Total Drama Action)
 * 2) Obituary (For Mr. Coconut or the Seagull)
 * 3) Entertainment Report (A preview of the next episode of Total Drama Action, it shouldn't contain spoilers)
 * 4) Fashion Analysis (A review of one or more character's clothing)
 * 5) Where Are They Now? (A story about what one of the non-qualifying characters is doing while not on the show)
 * 6) Advice Column (A letter to an advice giver, someone from TDI. The advice must be included. you may do more than one letter)
 * 7) Comic Strip (It must include dialogue. This isn't an art competition, so the pictures aren't required to be perfect, make sure the story in the three panel strip is good. It can be funny, dramatic, or action filled. It can be hand drawn or done with a computer art program)

This is due Friday, unless otherwise stated later on.

Sunshine's Reviews (Writing Gophers)
(Sorry this took so long!)

Anonymos- Hilarious! This seemed very Sadie. I could easily see her doing everything you mentioned in the article. The part about Sadie calling white lipstick “in”, but not wearing it herself, was funny. I also loved the preview for next week’s article. Possibly convicted felon! I was LOL-ing at that! Great job!

Tdi- Pretty nice job. I liked how you mentioned Owen being Mr. Coconut’s friend in the article. However, I think you spelled Muskoka wrong, and I wish you’d gone into a little more detail. Still, nice work.

ChimChar- Awesome! I loved this, and not just because it was about Duncan and I got mentioned. You went into a lot of detail without going too far, and was able to wrap everything up nicely in the end. Also, good job putting next week’s preview at the end, that made it seem like a real article. Overall, amazing, great job!

Sorrel- …so where’s the article?

Dominator- Hahahaha!!!! This was incredibly funny! “I didn’t think a spine could bend like that, eh.” LOL! Also, I know this isn’t an art contest, but it kind of bugged me that you pasted together episode pictures to make the comic. I would have liked it if you’d drawn it yourself. Even so, hilarious, great job!

Tdifan- Nothing? The girl who made final two first season and final five last season gives us NOTHING?

Cards777- Was this an entertainment report or front-page story? I had trouble figuring that out, but either way, this was really good. You described the episode in detail but still didn’t go overboard and mention every little thing that happened. There were some very minor grammar problems, but they weren’t that bad and really weren’t noticeable. Also, 1) Beth used perfume to lure Owen out of the safe, not an elixir (I know that’s not really important, but I just felt like pointing it out…) and 2) the way you said the Grips threw their Gilded Chris Awards at Owen kind of made it sound like they did it because they were mad at him; I think if you’d worded that differently, it wouldn’t have sounded like that. Other than those tiny problems, great job!

Sprinklemist's Reviews (Typing Bass)
tdiandrockmusic2 - Very entertaining, and very realistic from the standpoint of a newspaper article. This story was great, except for some issues with commas being inserted where the sentence should have ended. I also liked the random Cyndi Lauper reference. You were able to combine TDI and rock music... Hmmm.

Turnertang - This article was good, although there are some inaccuracies with the actual episode. I like the last second best, as you did not reveal more than you should have. The surprise (the one I'm thinking of) comes during the challenge, and the elimination is decided by the team, so that line confused me. Also, one of the requirements of this challenge was that it be cohesive. You gave a preview of the same episode that Owenguy wrote a detailed article on. One of you should have seen the other's article, and done something different.

Thebiggesttdifan - I saw the picture as I saw that you uploaded it without being able to post it on this page. I'll count it. The pictures were fairly confusing without the words. I think the story you were going for would have been better if you placed a random head (even the back of one) in the first panel to show that someone else was speaking to Izzy. Overall, I liked the comic strip, a lot. It was a nice idea.

NIzzy - Good solid advice. The grammar and spelling were fantastic. I think the only problem I noticed was the "gotten" line. I'm thinking it should have been "got". Other than that, the article was great.

Cokeman11 - Great job this week. It's a very good review. The introductory paragraph is the only one where I see problems. The very first part of the sentence should be paired with "who has", not "has". Scottish should be capitalized, also. Overall, though, I loved the review. You went into good detail, and matched her clothing to her personality. Great job.

Owenguy - This article was extremely well written. The grammar was really good, and the information accurate. Two problems. One being a comma should have been inserted before "yet again" and "un wired" should be one word. The other problem is that this article is not cohesive with Turnertang's article. You both recapped and previewed the same episode. One of you should have seen the other article and done a different episode.

Usitgz - This article was nice, and funny, as well. I like the fact that you were creative by choosing Bunny instead of Mr. Coconut or the seagull. All the parts of a normal obituary are in here, aside from the unnecessary location of the funeral. The only problem I see is that you said "aten" when you meant "eaten". So, other than that, everything was very well done. Good job.

Results
Sunshine: Sprinkle and I have decided. The winner of this week's challenge is... THE TYPING BASS! Congrats, guys. Gophers... all of you are now at risk. One of you will be going home. Good luck.

Gophers Vote
Who should be in the bottom two this week? Anonymos Tdi Chimchar Sorrel Dominator Tdifan Cards777

Sunshine: With five votes apiece, our bottom two this week is... Tdifan and Dominator. Alright guys, why should you stay?

Dominator's Reason to Stay
I should stay in Total Drama Author 3 because I'm going to win. There are a whole bunch of people who deserve to go way before I do. I'm only up here because I'm a threat to them, I don't know... They think I'm some terrible person for taking charge. Well isn't that what the winner needs to do? The winner gets adminship, and you want somebody who can be a leader; I'm that person! I know I probably sound like an arrogant jerk, but I'm usually just a little on the "full of myself" side. That isn't me all the time. My writing is great and I think that if I am up here for weakness, it's because I can't draw to save my life. I misunderstood the comic directions, and didn't make my own pic; I used real pics from the show. I don't think that's enough to have me eliminated. My writing is already great and I can write circles around most of these other guys. I do my work. I try every week. And I know that I'm going to win this thing. I've got the skill to do it, and I don't think it's fair to eliminate me for being a threat.

The Decision
Sunshine: Sprinkle and I have talked... and the decision has been made. The person leaving TDA3 today is...

...Tdifan. It stinks to see such a great author go third, but in the end, missing your story not once but TWICE is what caused your downfall.

But... I would be careful if I were you, Dominator. Even if you do have skill and a good strategy, bragging about it might turn people against you... you have been warned. Goodbye, Tdifan. The rest of you are safe... for now.

Week 4
Sunshine: With that, we're down to 13 authors. You guys feel confident? Also, I realize now I closed the challenge on Thursday when it was due Friday... sorry, guys... ^^;

Anonymos: I usually feel confident.

Anonymos: (CONF) I think that after realizing that 3rd place of last season is not anything bad. I think that that gave me a large confidence boost. I feel more confident in my abilities and I am totally ready for the rest of this season!

Tdirm2: (CONF) I'm really sad to see Tdifan go. I don't care if she didn't turn in her stories twice, she was a veteran from season one. Dominator sounded pretty snobby giving his argument. It's not very polite to say you'll write circles around everybody else. I hope he won't be mad at me. I can't make enemies, especially when the merge hits.

TBTDIF: (CONF) What's with the new phase of roleplay and all? No strategy is needed in the game--this is a contest, not a competition. Dominator's just a bit of a jerk. I hope he gets over it.

Chimmy: (CONF) I'm a bit worried about Dominator. I mean, come on, he's my teamate, and one of our best authors! Though I'm sure you'll achieve your goal, you better watch out for some so-called arrogance. I want to stand up for him so much, but I'm going to need some very good reasons to.

(CONF) Dominator: Okay... Nobody really has a high opinion of me at this point but hey, you do what you gotta do if you end up on that chopping block.

Dominator: Eh, Gophers. I'm sorry about some of the things I said when I was up for elimination. If you guys want to put me up there again, I understand. But, look, if I'm up there against somebody who deserves to go before me, I will fight for it and I won't let them beat me.

Oweguy: Okay Bass. We're winning two challenge wins to one so keep it up.

Chimmy: Gophers, just because we're outnumbered by Bass doesn't mean that we can't win! We need to fight for our right to be here, fight for our honor, dignity, and for our team! If we all give it our all, I'm sure one of us will be the top author! Show no mercy! Now, who's with me! (LOL, Admiral Chimmy, her Gopherness.)

(CONF) Oweguy: Admiral Chimmy? What's next?

Dominator: Okay, Chimmy...

(CONF) Dominator: Okay, I'm sort of bummed out since I got put up for elimination. But, hey, as long as I keep doing my stories, doing my work, and doing it well, I will win!

Dominator: Let's make sure a Gopher wins. And let's make sure we win this week so the Bass don't get the satisfaction of winning two in a row.

Chimmy: Great! Now, who wants to be my second in command? (LOL, JK.)

Chimmy: Ooh, sorta tough challenge, but I don't have any fanfic characters of my own! XP

Dominator: Same here. But my buddy Nalyd has some of the best characters ever! This will be a piece of cake...

NIzzy: Don't be so cocky... *smiles*

Chimmy: Just so you know, I chose Kendall because he's my favorite. Don't think I'm buttering up Sprink or anything.

NIzzy: Nice strategy! XD JK

Cards: Go GOPHERS! Go GOPHERS! Go GOPHERS!

TBTDIF: Can you do a crossover between two fanfictions?

Chimmy: YAH! GO GOPHERS! *Numa Numa dances* (LOL, When I watch the Sonic Numa Numa dance video, I get up and dance! I am a strange one...

Tdirm2:Hey Sunshine, in case you're wondering, Andrea screwing up names means that she barely has a grip onwhat's going on in the real world. I know she desribes what Han and Izzy do in detail, but how can you ignore them.

TBTDIF: This is completely irrelevant, but I think one of our challenges should be a remembrance of Ricky490 in some way. How I miss Total Drama Daredevil...

Chimmy: LOL, it seems that since I posted my story, everyone is doing something with Total Drama: Boney Island. Yay, I'm a trendsetter! *walks down a random runway in sky blue dress*

CK11: Actually, I was gonna do a TDBI story all along.

(CONF) CK11: I think my story's a little small...but it's good.

Tdirm2:TBTDIF, your story is GREAT! You should post it on the fanfic wiki, it makes mine look horrible.

Chimmy:*stops walking down runway* YAY WEIRD COINCIDENCES! EEEEEEEEEEEE! *jumps up and down, realizes she's still wearing her dress and that her undies are showing*Uh...yay? (XD)

TBTDIF: Haha, at least I didn't go with the crowd...wait a second--I got complimented? I got comp-I got complimented! YAY! Thanks, Tdirm2...and by the way, you can't use TDI characters in your story. That's all.

Tdirm2: Hehe, whoops (Conf) Stupid! *facepalm* If the Bass lose, I'm doomed.

Sprinklemist: Sunshine is reviewing your story this week (I think) so it's up to her whether your penalized, or not, but since her story has the TDI characters, I wouldn't be too worried...

TBTDIF: If the Bass lose, I'll talk us into keeping you. You're a good writer, and one little slip doesn't mean anything.

Sunshine: Sprinkle and I will have the reviews up shortly!

Chimmy:Yay! The Gophers are back on track! Let's give even more of an effort next time!!!

Challenge 4
All right, this week's challenge is a classic from season 1 of Total Drama Author! You'll be writing a story with fanfic characters! BUT! ...you cannot use any of your own characters (or TDI characters, to clarify). You must use characters from someone else's story. You'll be judged on the usual stuff (spelling, grammar, if the story was good in general, etc.), plus if you used the characters well. Sprinkle and I may ask the original authors their opinions on it if necessary. This will be due Friday, unless by some great stroke of luck you all finish on Thursday. (And I won't accidentally close it early this time! XD) Good luck!

Sprinklemist's Reviews (Writing Gophers)
Anonymos - I loved this story, and I approve of how you used my characters. Good job. I loved Lisa and Dirk in this story, especially when Dirk ran into her fist. Lol. You even included a cameo by Stu, from Turnertang's story, for hilarious results. I kind of wish that you left him out so that no one would be confused, but his role as a teacher made it so that anyone unfamiliar with him wouldn't realize it was a cameo.

Tdi - No story. No review.

Chimchar - Really, really, well done. I loved this story. You hinted at future relationships and the underlying reason that Kendall disliked Stevie (and plausibly, Dirk). I also liked the way that you tied his disdain for Fiona with not wanting to be reminded of his mother. It's such a good analysis, that I honestly never thought of. Great, great job.

Sorrel - No story...

Dominator - I really enjoyed this story. I loved the way that you portrayed Ivan. It was funny and I really liked the giant panda link. Lol. My only problem was that you had three different characters from three different realms in the story with no inclusion of any characters from the same story. It made sense with the story, but it might be confusing to people who aren't familiar with all three characters (hence the links, I'm sure).

Cards777 - This story was really sweet. I liked it. My only concern was that you left a few words out, a few commas, and there were a few grammar problems.

Sunshine's Reviews (Typing Bass)
Turnertang- Nice job! The characters’ personalities seemed to be written well. Jakey was hilarious with his nerdiness, and I feel so bad for poor Stan, stuck with him! Your only problem was some minor grammar issues. Good job!

TBTDIF- Personally, I really liked this one. Was having Pauline and Ajax together a reference to Total Fanfiction Crossover? The first time I read this through, I didn’t realize AJ was Ajax, and honestly believed he was just a klutzy Subway worker. So, I was really surprised when he revealed himself! The ending was touching as well. Your spelling and grammar was great, as usual. The characters were written well. And, of course, the story was great. Excellent job!

NIzzy- No story, no review.

COKEMAN11- This was hilarious! “I LIKE YOU TOO, STEVIE!” LOL! I think, personally, that the characters were written pretty well, though I thought Blair would talk more. Is it just me, or does Kendall always seem to fall for the annoying chicks? First Fiona, now Blair… I loved how you switched between both Waterlily and Kendall to give us both their perspectives on the events. Great job!

Tdiandrockmusic2- I loved this!!! Because the “Ex” series used TDI characters, I won’t penalize you for it this time. The characters were amazingly written, especially Andrea. In fact, I sent a link to the story to the person I based Andrea on, and she agreed it sounded just like her! Especially the part about loving sanity, LOL. There weren’t any spelling or grammar problems I noticed, either. Great job!!!

Oweguy- No story, no review.

Usitgz- This seemed to be in Ed’s personality, and Lacey’s, but it was incredibly short. There were also some minor grammar issues. Overall, I wish you had made this longer. If you had gone into a bit more detail, I’m sure this would have been superb.

Results
Sunshine: Okay... the winner of this week's challenge, as decided by Sprinklemist and myself, is... '''THE WRITING GOPHERS!!! '''Congrats, guys! Bass... we have a surprise twist for you. NIzzy and Oweguy did not write stories this week. In order to get the challenge schedule back on track, we're going to have you two be the bottom two. Now, why should you stay?

NIzzy's Reason to Stay
Well I was going to do the challenge but I got pulled of my P.C because my mom was in hospital... anyway enough of that. I’ve enjoyed this camp and it’s been my first writing camp ever, I’ve had my up’s and down’s, I know I’m not the best and I have my weaknesses however if I’m going to be honest I truly think Owenguy101 should stay... I think he deserves Adiminship way more than me. Go Oweguy! So I'm dropping out... (If thats even allowed when you're in the bottom two either way I'm leaving.)

Oweguy's Reason to Stay
Well I did start the story the day before the challenge ended. I just forgot to finished it on time. The reason I forgot to write it was because I was busy with school and I needed to relax. I enjoy the Total Drama Author camps and I hope I'll do well at this. Like NIzzy said, I should deserve Adminship and I should try my best to win. If NIzzy leaves the competition, I'd would say she'd did a good job in the competition. Anyway. I think I should desearve to stay. If I stay, I hope to get my story up on time. Sorry I forgot too.

The Decision
Sunshine: ...well, NIzzy dropped out... so, no further elimination. Bye, NIzzy. You will be missed.

Week 5
Sunshine: Congrats, guys! You've survived four challenges and eliminations! How are ya feeling?

Chimmy: I'm feeling amazing! This is way farther than I thought I'd get. I'd like to thank everyone on my team, cause' I owe you for still being here! And Sunshine and Sprinkle and...*sniffles* THANK YOU!!! *bawls* (XD By the way, I GTG)

Tdirm2: I'm still here, I'm doing better than I thought. *plays Billy Idol and sings along horribly*

''Dancing with myself oh-oh-oh, Dancing with myself. ''

When there's nothing to prove and there's nothing to lose oh-oh Dancing with myself oh-oh-Oh

* Breaks windows and Sunshine's abnormally large glasses* Oops

TBTDIF: Eh, I guess I'm happy. I mean, I don't really find anything special about being in the final...final...finals. (Uh...epik fale? Ummm...Ex...deeh?)

Dominator: I'm not sure how big an accomplishment is for five weeks...

(CONF) Dominator: Ooh... I survived four eliminations! What a shocker!... I guess for some people that's a big thing, but I'm not even half way of my goal of final five. Well, I guess my real goal is winning. But if I make it to final five I'll get an account.

Dominator: Way to go, Gophers! If we keep this up, the six of us will be the final six.

(CONF) Dominator: I think I might be low man on the totem pole on my team... I know it's not because of my writing, they just don't like me as a person...

(CONF) CK11: I survived four eliminations! This is way farther than I thought I would go! ... ... Do you think I could actually take this thing to the final FIVE?

(CONF) TBTDIF: Have I ever made it at least three quarters through in this epic trilogy? No. What makes me think I can? Nothing. Honestly, what's with the hype about the final five?

Tdirm:(CONF) If the Gophers lose, Dom could be in big trouble. He still seems somewhat snobby, which is sad, because I think he's a good writer, and seemed polite for the first challenge.

Tdirm: Can't wait for challenge five, wonder what it is.

Sorrel: *notices its week5* WHOA im sooo glad i stayed even though i....... NEVER MInd

Chimmy:I'm loving my story so far, I think it ging to be the most passionate one I've ever written.

Sunshine: Everyone's dying this week... o.O

Chimmy:OMG IT'S ANOTHER APOCOLYPSE!!!! *runs in random circles* (By the way, TDIRM, DUncan's body never able to be found made me cry, and I never cry.)

Sunshine: I was very, very close to crying reading both of your stories... I'm pathetic... XD

Chimmy: I think that if my mom read my story, our house would be flooded within half an hour. (XD)

Tdirm:Chimmy, if that made you cry, read Violet Hill. It's a one-shot I made on the fanfic wiki that made Sunshine, Sprinkle, and Fadingsliverstar16 cry. Wait, it's not Fadingsilverstar16, it's Gigi. I miss you Gigi! That didn't come out right! (She's a girl, I'm a guy)

Sunshine: Yeah... then I read it again the other day, and I almost cried again. XD

TBTDIF: My story is rather abstract in terms of the couple thing, but I think it'll be okay.

(CONF) Dominator: I see all the others hanging out with Sunshine, so I figure since I'm going to be an admin someday, and thus equally powerful as her, I should try to be her friend... And, you know, who is she gonna pick to win? Silent me, or one of her friends?

Dominator: I think I'm gonna do a pairing me and Nalyd love... BridgettexHarold! XD

Chimmy: Yeah, I read Violet Hill today, I cried again...OMG I'M TURNING INTO MY MOM!!!! (XD) (OK&lt; now I really GTG)

Sprinklemist: Tdirm, I totally didn't cry! I only cry at things that aren't supposed to make you cry, for some reason... Man, I wish this challenge existed last season... That's why I did the Lindsay-Noah story on our free week.

Challenge 5
This week will be another classic challenge from TDA season 1... you will be writing a story with a non-canon TDI couple! For example, Cody-Lindsay or Courtney-Trent. You can check the Total Drama Wiki for canon couples and some non-canon couples. You'll be judged on the usual spelling and grammar stuff, plus if you made the couple seem believable and how good the story was in general. Good luck guys!

Tdiandrockmusic2's Story
Everybody seems to think due to my privileged upbringing, I’ve never suffered anything. They have no idea. I still remember every second of that day.

Duncan and I were just about ready to leave for my parents’ house outside Edmonton for Christmas. This was supposed to be a short, uneventful drive, due to us living in Calgary. I grabbed the suitcases stuffed to their limits with our clothes and Christmas gifts, thanks to my nephew who just had to have one of the largest remote control cars in the history of mankind. It had started to snow lightly, as a follow-up to the six inches we got two days ago. The roads were plowed, so there should have been no trouble getting anywhere. Just before I got in the car, I stared at the ring on my hand. Was the wedding already a month ago? Weirdly enough, after getting married, Duncan and I seemed to never argue anymore. That day we had a friendly one about what to CD to listen to in the car. I wanted to play The Goo-Goo Dolls, compared to Duncan wanting to play Killswitch Engage. We had settled on a Paramore album and were off in less than five minutes. Sure enough, the roads were great. Then we hit that bridge. Halfway across that foreboding gray, steel construct, I had noticed a jagged piece of metal on the road.

“Duncan!” I had screamed.

He swerved, but the metal sank into our left tire. We lost control for a second, but managed to make it to the emergency lane. Duncan got out the jack and the spare tire, while I stepped forward a couple paces to call Triple A, as both of us weren’t too good with mechanics, despite persistent efforts. As I wrapped up the call, I was the only one to notice the 18-Wheeler hit the same piece of metal, and careen into the car. Duncan’s head was slammed through the passenger window and both vehicles hurtled through the guardrail and off the bridge into the frozen river. I ran to the broken guardrail and looked down at two jagged holes in the ice on the river. I knew it right then, he was gone. Just like that. He had turned into another statistic: One of the many people to die in a traffic accident. After a frenzied 911 call, I was picked up by the police, to arrive at the worst Christmas of my life. I had been told that it would be impossible for Duncan’s body to ever be found due to the river’s currents, just to make things worse. I had managed to get back home after Christmas via air travel, but nothing would ever be the same. We had all our hopes and dreams, just to have them obliterated. For those first few weeks, all I seemed to do was sit around in eternal shock, fueled by news reports on what happened. The accident seemed to be on the TV for nearly a week, proving once and for all that the news has nothing better to do. After a month, I finally was forced to do something, being in the form of a Total Drama Reunion. I was forced to go; apparently it was in our contracts. So here I was, back at Camp Wawanakwa, the place Duncan and I met. This wasn’t improving my mood. Everybody, who was secretly glad that I was a wreck, being able to hold grudges as good as I used to, didn’t seem to care. We never saw each other after Total Drama the Musical, so we all thought everybody was the same. I got a few mentions of “Sorry” and “I feel so bad for you,” but otherwise, everybody stayed away. Except Heather, surprisingly, she was the only one to say something and mean it.

“Courtney,” she had said to me, “I know you don’t expect me to say this but, I’m sad at what happened. Duncan was a friend of mine too; I actually had more of a chance of hooking up with him than Gwen,”

This brought a slight grin, but it didn’t last.

“Thanks Heather, Gwen actually said that Karma was finally getting to me.”

“That’s really mean; it almost makes me want to read her diary on TV again. Almost. Something’s gotten into her lately. Well I’m sorry, but I have to go.”

Heather then walked away towards Lindsay. Me, I headed for the door, I could only take so many glances. I stumbled and collapsed into the snow. It had gotten worse since the accident. I dusted off my arms and was mystified to see a hand offered out to help me up. I grabbed it to meet Noah in the eye.

“Courtney, you made it. I didn’t think you’d come, it’s horrible what happened, even if I didn’t like Duncan.” He said.

“You’re the second person to say something nice Noah. That’s really, really odd.”

“Who was the first?”

“Heather.”

I swore I could see his eyes widen for a second.

“Really,” Noah replied.

“Yes.”

“What did you end up doing after the show; I’m a manager in a bookstore.”

“I’m a lawyer, predictable huh,” I responded.

“It’s not a bad thing Courtney.”

“I know, but everybody became somebody completely different, and I stayed the same mostly. Look at you, you’re being nice. What happened to you Mr. Insulting Cynic?”

“Ok, you’re right there, but still, maybe you didn’t change because you were already…” Noah stopped talking, obviously at a lack of words.

“Crazy, begrudging, antagonistic” I finished.

“I was going to say perfect,” he replied.

“What! Nobody’s supposed to like me except Duncan; everybody took it as a rule.”

“Almost everybody, I always thought you were kinda cute,” Noah said shyly while looking at the ground.

“Aww, and here I thought you had Cody,” I joked, he was definitely having an effect on me.

“Oh come on, that was ten years ago, and we were screaming in terror afterwards!”

“You know Noah, you’re kinda cute too.”

Now it was time for him to stare in shock. Then we just seemed to move towards each other for a kiss, just like in the movies. That is, until Heather burst out the door,

“Courtney, Noah!” she exclaimed, “They’re going to show the best moments from the show. I hope they show when my head was shaved, my face must have looked ridiculous!” Heather then got the fact she was interrupting something.

“Am I interrupting a cheesy cinematic kiss scene?”

“Yes,” Noah and I replied at the same time.

“Okay, I’ll head back inside,” Heather said.

She headed back in and we finally kissed. He held my hand a we walked in, and sat next to me as we laughed at ourselves with the clips Chris put together. And yes, Heather’s face looked ridiculous when she got her head shaved. We all exchanged numbers, e-mails, and addresses and said our goodbyes. Heather apparently lived just across the border in Seattle, and Noah was mysteriously located in Calgary. Across town, but in the same city. Guess we were meant to be together too I guess. And maybe, just maybe, I was happy again.

Chimchar's Story
I was alone.

My BFFFL, Sadie, had passed away, and I was still hysterical over it. I clutch her picture close to my chest and cry even more. Ever since we were little, we were inseparable, and that one plane ride changed everything. I remember the horrific accident in detail… “OMG Katie, this is gonna be sooooo fun!”

“I know, right? EEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!” I squealed, having no idea that this would be a life changing day for me. We boarded the plane to Newfoundland and sat back and watched as the plane soared into the clouds. An hour later, we were eating peanuts like there was no tomorrow. I wondered “How could life get any better than this?” Little did I know, things were about to take a turn for the worse.

“Ahem, t-this is your captain speaking.” The pilot sounded like he was in a pickle. “W-we’re having s-some slight d-difficul-“Then two gunshots were fired. I gulped. The flight attendants ran around screaming. The grabbed something labeled “For emergency’s only” That can’t be a good sign. Then they jumped out, leaving us stranded alone in a plane doomed to crashing. Suddenly, the plane took a huge dip to the right. Sadie nearly fell off. I grabbed her as fast as I could. However, gravity took over, and Sadie fell to her doom. “SADIE!!!” I shrieked. I thought I could hear a small voice screaming my name, but it was to late. She was gone. And I remembered us eating like there was no tomorrow. For Sadie, that was abosolutley just. She had no tommorow. And I just wished the same could be true for me.

I am the sole survivor of my plane crash. All alone in the middle of the wilderness. Back on TDI, I was eliminated in the wilderness challenge. Oh, the irony. I almost manage to work up a smile. Suddenly I hear a rustling noise. I back up against the tree I’ve been leaning on for the past few hours. Suddenly, I see movement in a bush to my left. I shriek as something resembling a huge bear emerges from the bushes…but then I hear my name. “Katie?” I open one eye, only to see the creature I mistook for a bear. With eyes full of concern and passion, an a body that should belong to a wrestler, that bear was DJ.

“DJ? What are you doing here?” I question.

“Well, the pet store was out of food for Bunny, so I decided to look for some around here. But now I’m lost…” He turns around to see me sobbing uncontrollably. “What happened?”

I explain the whole predicament: The trip to Newfoundland, the pilot being shot at the wheel, and most importantly, Sadie falling to her death. Once I mention that, I start to tear up again. “Don’t cry, Katie. You’re better than that.” I don’t obey. To my surprise, DJ hugs me. DJ. Hugging me. Why? Does he like me? Or is it simply out of pity? So many questions to be answered, so little life to live. But here I am, sitting on a log in the rain being held by a superhuman sweetheart.

Though the rain presses on, my train of thought speeds through the drops. For the first time in years, my thoughts are not about Sadie, but about DJ. Me Katie. He DJ. Did anything happen between us in TDI? No. TDA? Still no. Did…did he have hidden feelings for me? My train of thought comes to a screeching halt. Should I ask him? I mean we’re stranded in the middle of nowhere and almost guaranteed to die. Why not? But then there was the thought of rejection. If he didn’t love me, I would not only die unhappy, but heartbroken. Not that I already wasn’t with Sadie gone. I wander around aimlessly as I continue to ponder. What would be my dream guy? Someone who didn’t care who you were on the outside, someone who cared what you were like on the inside, and someone who cared about others. AKA, DJ. Was this a coincidence, or could this be fate? Just then, a large shadow fell over me. “Hey, what’s up, Katie?” Right on cue.

“Uh…nothing much. You?”

“Same. Hey, I just wanted to...”

I couldn’t control myself. I just had to take the risk. I kiss him. On the lips. At first, I'm filled with despair. Oh, what had I just done? But then I take a look at DJ. He had closed his eyes. Then all the sadness I had held inside myself was released, and I cry. I cry harder than I had ever cried before. But these were not tears of regret. These were tears of mirth. I could finally have a companion. Someone who would love me. Someone who would care. And someone who could break through the wall I had put up, the wall that turned me into that brainless person I used to be. I had gotten a huge overdose of reality, and Dr. DJ had rescued me. I hold him tighter, and close my eyes as well. And I know he is ‘the one’.

Diary of a Friendly Goth

I was alone.

This story starts like another story here. Just the first 3 words. Anyway, I was alone. Trent moved with his dad to Antarctica. Apparently, he was sued by nine penguins. I didn't know they had lawyers. Unfortunately, someone else was moving into my neighborhood. Namely, Noah. (More to come)
