Did you catch the game? HOLY SMOKES!

Come talk team USA! Come talk group C and even previous matches! Come talk the England game too since both are advancing. Come talk about the WORLD'S sport!

Ok, so I know that things switched around a little bit a few weeks ago, but I loved where you could recommend fics on Wednesday.

I would write down the ones that sounded interesting and then I would organize them by:

1)  How many chapters were completed.

2) Completed or "on going" Fanfiction

3) How many reviews it received.

4) How frequently it updated.

(Yeks, this sounds really PATHETIC)

Besides being extremely Anal Retentative about my Fanfiction, I am not one to welcome change. (sad I know)

Can someone tell what day it has been moved to?

I just wanted to add, that I appreciate all the hard work the Rangers put into this website. I know it is hard to please everyone all the time.

So, I'm all about lemons in FF.

MoTU, How to save a life, Cullen Island - you name it, I've read it...recently, I was reading a very popular fic. Now, I've been following this fic for a while and it's excellent. The plot, the characters, the lemons are all great...except, E and B are 16! Suffice to say it's kind of difficult to swallow [that's what she said].

Tell me what turns you OFF about Lemons in FF?

Bad mouthed Bella? Unhygenic Edward? Jasper in general?

Also, what do you LIKE?

Bad mouthed Bella? Unhygenic Edward? Jasper in general?

FYT

I really love the short hair..

University of Edward Masen updated, can someone tell me if it's safe to read? I didn't read the last chapter either!!

I'm so tired omg.

So I'm in Panama City Beach, Florida.  It took FOREVER to get here.  There was a ton of traffic and construction coming from Birmingham, AL, and we drove through every podunk town in the state.  But we made it in one piece.  The condo we're sharing with my friend is GORGEOUS.... I'll try to get some pics tomorrow.

Today--

We hung out a little on the beach, the girls swam in the pool, we lit sparklers on the beach after it got dark, we ate taco salad and baked brownies....and I drank a bottle and a half of wine.  It was heaven.

The water here is BEAUTIFUL...contrary to what we heard on the news...the beach is still open and is lovely.

No ridiculous stories to share... today was an altogether lovely day---once we arrived.  Tomorrow the girls dance, so I look forward to seeing a combination of talented dancing (my daughter's studio) and some strippers-in-training (everyone else).

Some pics I took today...

this is the view from our condo...

my bb...

The Condo we have is awesome... but it doesn't have wi-fi (WTF)... so I'm using the crappy internet connection in the lobby omg this is so bad.  I'm going to bed.  good night!

I am dying for some Ghostward.  Preferrably from Bella's point of view, but Edward's is ok too.

Also, there was a story that I had read a while back that I can't find.  It was a work in progress...  Bella had just moved into a new house and it turned out if was haunted by Edward Masen.  Weird things would happen like her office being destroyed, or she'd open the fridge and the food would be all rotted.  She calls in a psychic, Alice, to get rid of the spirit.  Alice brings her brother along, Edward Cullen. 

The story left off with the night after Edward Cullen was possessed by Edward Masen...I think?

If anyone knows what happened to this story, I'd appreciate any info... =)

I read this one the other day and I really liked it:

Anyway, anyone have any good Ghostward stories?

KStew in Sweden. It looks like the photographer caught her at just the right moment being herself before she snapped into "movie star" mode. 

Hey there!

I'm loving the new features of ADF.  However, I'm having issues with a couple things and I'd like to inform the Rangers and Jon so they can fix them or tell me to "get bent, 'cuz it's the new normal"....

1.  ADF is loading sooo slooooowly! The ads seem to be seriously lagging behind.  (relatively slow--not slow as dial-up, but c'mon already.)

2.  I usually have my browser set on the "compatibility view" option, cuz it seems to keep everything sized nicely and I don't have to scroll left and right when big pics are posted.  However, when I'm in compatibility view mode and i try to click on campfire to see the latest or possibly start one, the top part of the box that pops up is hidden behind that horizontal ad right below the the little thumbnail tabs..(i had to click out of compatibility view, to find the "start a campfire" button)...

So, does anyone else have issues that need to be explained or that are possibly fixable???  I started this campfire under the assumption that if Rangers don't know, then they can't fix it...

With love, Melba.

We haven't played it in awhile. Give us your best! I will start...............

So, I was remembering this story that I love, but got abandoned by the author. Did it happened with you guys too? Do you guys have a story that you wish it'd come back from the dead?

The story that I'm talking about is Schism by kharizzmatik - Summary: Everyone thinks Bella was killed shortly after Edward left her but 36 years later she reappears in Forks. Who attacked her? How's life been for the Cullen's? Where has Bella been? Will they be reunited? AU after Edward's departure in New Moon M LEMONS

I usually read AH stories, but this one was great. I'm sad that It never got finished.

Okay so I just got the notification that The Wedding Party has been updated, and I'm scared to click on it. 

At the risk of creating too many Friends-related campfires in one evening, it reminds me of that episode of Friends where Joey and Rachel put their books in the freezer when they got to sad or scary. 

I did the same thing with Living Backwards a few months ago - stopped reading right before the prom and picked it back up a few weeks ago once I could read through to the happy parts.

Has anyone ever purposely avoided reading updates until they think the angst has subsided?

I've been reading Hydraulic Level 5 over the past couple of days and its had me tearing up every chapter, even full on sobbing for a few of them. It got me wondering about other fics that made me cry like this one has.

So i ask you, campers - What fic has made you cry the most, and why?

My answer:

While Hydraulic Level 5 has brought on the tears quite a bit, it is not the fic that made me cry the most. That is reserved for either How to Save a Life or Wide Awake. I know, both kind of cliche answers, but damn did I sob during those stories. Full out sob, with boo-hoo noises and everything. Both were beautifully written and raw with emotion.

So I was watching Friends re-runs and now I really, really want to read a Twilight fanfic with an Edward similar to/reminiscent of Chandler. Does anyone know of any good fics like that (AH preferably, but AU is fine too)?

So, I've actually never posted anything on this site. This is a first. Last week the lovely & talented Kisvakondok posted a rec for my story Winter of Love on this site - and I got a lot of traffic. Besides the point though - this is not why I'm starting this campfire.  Upon checking out who posted this lovely rec for me, I stumbled onto her really fucking awesome story called "Mating in Captivity." 

Here are my five cents on why you really should go read her story:

Okay, we all love Twilight, but are you also secretly hooked on what Blair Waldorf and the crew are up to?

Well, if you find the life of the ultra snooty, spoiled and manipulative teenagers of Gossip Girl highly entertaining (and let’s face it, who in their right mind and with a good sense of fashion doesn’t?), you HAVE to come check out her story!

In this superbly written tale, Bella Swann (nope, not a typo) and the crew attend the exclusive St. Forks Catholic School in New York City. The foibles of Queen B, the most powerful and popular girl of the school, and her followers are detailed by The Saint Forksian Stalker. Naturally Queen B only surrounds herself with the rich and famous. Her adventures are the stuff of legend; shopping, partying and scheming, sometimes with the help of some pharmaceutical internvention. Add to the mix all of the regular Twilight characters as reincarnations of rich Upper East Side teenagers with a hefty mix of sex & drugs and you have a party!

Of course not all that shines is golden in this story. While on the surface Bella Swann seems the epitome of beauty and style, we know she’s far from it. Neither is dear Eddie for that matter as he jumps from bed to bed, often highly intoxicated and always with a swagger in his step. Will they be able to love each other in all their flawed glory while wading through the never ending intrigues created by high school politics?

All I can say is Kisvadkonkok has created multidimensional, flawed characters that never seem staged while entertaining us. Please go check out her story ASAP and leave her some love!

...Oooor moodily glaring at you from afar, while shifting from foot to foot, and racking his fingers through tosseled bronze sex hair.

So I just finished The Best Man by Bratty_Vamp (late to the party--> this girl!) and it got me thinking, I don't think I've read any other Big Bro-ward. Meanwhile, I find him super sexy (some one should seriously warn my friends, I'm gonna start trolling for their big brothers)

Anyone wanna Rec me some good, well written Older Brother Edward fics? AH, Cannon if possible.

P.S. yup, I deff spent my free time at wrk today photo shoping those eyes souly for this post, ENJOY

Does anyone have any story recs for Edward or Bella getting cheated on?  But not on each other I couldn't handle that.  But I can handle reading a story where they're having an affair with one another.  so does anyone have any suggestions???

i dont know why i didnt start reading it sooner!

so i want to know,
