Chris on the a proposed CWCography, Mailbag 13 |
BULLETIN: WE HAVE A SHITTY FORUM NOW!!! But only team members will be allowed to join. So there. (You filthy commoners will be allowed to make posts in a small section of the forum, though.) Link: here Basically we made this because there's no way we could ever get everyone in an IRC meeting. So come on.
The Unauthorised Biography of Chris-Chan (working title) is a project to create a complete, reasonably unbiased account of the life and times of CWC, in order to introduce members of the public to this mad, mad world.
It'll be a bit like a specialised, public-friendly paperback version of the CWCki, but organised into chapters and with some extra stuff.
Proposed by BW, a lady of /cwc/, picked up by the jerk Xentrilus, and supported by a team of noble volunteers such as Decrumpit, the book will contain extensive coverage of Chris's exploits, his trolls, his views on subjects such as women's rights and religion, the Sonichu comic, and his Love Quest.
We intend to publish this for real. It is serious business.

The Original Post (by BW)

"Considering all the information accumulated about the manchild and how long this whole thing has been going on I'm surprised nobody has tried to write something like an unauthorized biography about Chris, possibly getting it published and making a bit of money to taunt in his fat greasy face.
It's perfectly legal to do something like that without the permission of the person it's about and perhaps we could get our side of the story out into the world, where so many other people can enjoy the milk this lolcow has produced.
That said, we'd also have to find someone talented enough to write said biography and it would be a difficult, gruelling task. It might be a good idea to use a pseudonym too. I just like the idea of Chris raging when he finds himself on the front cover of a book chronicling and dissecting his life.
Sort of like a paperback CWCki, I guess? Anyway, just wanted to know if you guys think this is a good idea or not."
Planning
To do
HIGH PRIORITY
Start planning out the chapters and order of events.Done.Decide who is doing what. (Half done.)Start doing what.
- Write rough drafts of every section of the book. (Done for most sub-episodes, along with maybe half of the episodes.)
- Refine, revise, and otherwise improve these rough drafts. (This has mostly been done to episodes 0, 1, and 2.)
- Get professional opinions/help on the project (We're halfway there already, with some prominent cwcki users expressing approval. Needs moar though. PVCC's opinion would be appreciated.)
- Write the prologue.
Contact Chris.Jump did this with positive results (see top of page), but I think at some point in the future we should take it further.
NOT YET HIGH PRIORITY
- Start putting together the:
- Glossary
- Maps
- Timeline
- Any other extras to enhance the book. (Decrumpit has a few tricks up his sleeve, if you know what I mean.
Contributors
ATTENTION: THE CORE TEAM IS NOW FINALISED. WE ARE NO LONGER TAKING APPLICATIONS.
We are now on the verge of becoming a secret internetz club.
If you want to submit something (i.e. custom art) for inclusion but don't want to compromise your anonymity or whatever, the /cwc/ thread will remain open. Additionally, if we require a specialist job done we may create an opening for someone capable of it, so don't lose hope.
