To celebrate the lack of things happening, I figured a call-back to the tumultuous year of 2011 would be fitting. Remember then? No? Well, few do.

As part of the underground resistance to the past ousting of the Brothers Gobbo (yes, this did happen), there was a poorly known I.F. related to Dream Land royalty. I felt that it needed an actual moment in the sun after six years. That sounds like too long of a time to me.

A very open concept this time! I look forward to seeing where people take this one. Also, I don't recall this ever having been an IF contest at all. I was probably there for it, but dang, it would've been so long ago anyway.

It was hidden content weaseled away in the Rainbow Underground? Most people never even knew it was a thing, hence the "point-five" detail, half-quel. Totally a word.

Ah, I see. I do think I remember someone else hosting an IF contest once? I think it was Kirazy, but I honestly can't recall anything about its details.

Also, I feel like Prince Fluff and the Fairy Queen from Epic Yarn and Crystal Shards are also relevant rulers. Not sure if you left them out because they slipped your mind or if you intentionally left them out to emphasize antagonists.

It's a good thing me and a few others made a new site about Kirby. This one is dead, haha.

Well, it has been dead for some years now. Even back five years ago, it was struggling on life support. Personal websites just can't compete against the likes of Facebook, Reddit, and other massive conglomerates.

What happened to my entry? I don't think it broke any of the rules on the submission page. Or is it because I just made a bigger version of a normal enemy?

Um... impatience? Your entry pretty much came right after I checked for new submittals (which takes some time with the ink drying, etc). I only even noticed it being there yesterday.

Anyhoo, you get an alert if an entry was denied. Now I don't know what to do since you have two. Tsk, tsk. Guess I can drag my feet even more now~!

Oh, whoops! I submitted it around the same time as gameandpie so when I didn't see it alongside his I just assumed the worst, haha. Sorry to be a bother!

Normally I do wait for there to be at least a few in the pipe before releasing the first batch, but my assumption was that interest would be ... entirely dead? Regardless, one-of-two po-po'd.

The forum is broken. Please fix it.

Ya know, there's this amazing thing called email. You can contact me directly instead of leaving unrelated comments on articles. General venting on what everyone seems to do these days.

Forums are Mints' thing. Think they (and the oekaki?) were hosted on a separate server thing; I really don't know. The boards -- at least in internet time -- are dinosaurs, but it wouldn't make sense that they would just... break barring some removal on a user end. At least, to my knowing (which is few).

Anyhoo, I'll pass the word along to him, but he works a lot, so no telling the turn-around time.

I thought you wouldn't respond through email because you do nothing to help KRR.

Response by Keeby64 on 4:37pm Jun 13th, 2017 (Report| Reply)

Oh, yes. I do nothing. Say, who was it that left the site? Who was it that never updated even when they allegedly "worked" here? Oh, that's right: everyone who isn't me.

Sounds like some form of cognitive dissonance. You already made up your mind regarding the outcome of an event that you had never once performed.

You know, I got a question for you (before I delete this irrelevant string of comments): why are you here? All you ever do is complain that the site is dead due to it literally being dead for a few years (jeez, the same years that I wasn't here. coincidence?). You don't have to be here if you don't want to be; no one is forcing you.

Hey, don't forget: a guy who doesn't work here does more than a bunch of people who did~!

Just looked at the storybook, and apparently, it stated that this site had been effectively deceased since 2011. It is amazing that I keep jump-starting its ticker whenever PHP is PHP.

Hilariously enough, my Perl site is still running on the same code it has been using for over twenty years.
