Greetings folks:
I'm authoring a new fanfic reader utility program. I need some beta
testers, and maybe a graphics guy/gal. The program's state is early
enough that I am not putting it up for download yet. It's not
entirely stable, so this venture into Beta-Land isn't for everyone.
So, if I haven't scared you off yet - continue on! Oh yeah, there is
a cheezy spamfic about the utility attatched at the end of this.
Don't complain; I said it was cheezy ^-^

Introducing: The FanFicronomicon (working title)
I knew better than to ask the Ranma cast for help, jeesh. Anyway, I'm trying to create
a utility that is dedicated to fanfiction. I want to impliment all kinds of searching
features to it, but I need help testing it as I go along. It's free, as I'm doing this
just for honing my coding skills. Whoever wants to help is invited to contact me
*privately*, as we can't clutter up the list too much. I wouldn't
mind some graphics dude(ette) to contact me either; everything helps.
To be considered you need only to have an intrest and one of the
following systems:
Amiga
Windows
MAC
BeOS
Linux

If you would like to see how the cast of Ranma botched up my announcement, read on.
Be forewarned, it's just out-rite silly! Remember, the story is true, but the names
have been changed to protect the guilty.

"Yo! Akane Tendo here!..... Hey wait, who's doing this script? Aaaargh!"
*K L U N K*
"This is Akane Tendo, and I'm here to gather up the troops to help beta test a new
toy for FanFic lovers. The name of the tool is currently the FanFicronomicon, but
will probably change after the beta stage. RAAAaaaaNMAAaaaa, what are you doing over
there?!!?"
"I ain't doin 'nuthin, Akane. What are you doin'? Probably something tomboy like, huh?"
*B A S H* *C L A N K* *Zooooooooom*
"Where was I? The script oh yeah..."
"Basically this thingy will fetch FanFic's, and let you read them. Kinda like a browser,
but just for FanFiction!"
*Thump* "Aaaw geez, Akane, whadja' do that for? Nevermind, I'm going to find some food."
"Grrrrr, don't even call me any names you pervert."
*ding-ding* *ding-ding* *C R A S H* *G L O M P*
"Nihou Airen!!! Glad see Shampoo, No!?!!"
"Mmmphrl"

"Raaaaanma! What are you doing with that Chinese Hussy?"
*splash*
"meow?" "AAAAaaaaaaaaagh" "RANMA! you come back here!!! Here's the script Nabiki, I'm
going to go teach that lech a lesson..."
"Cough-cough. Amusing.. Interesting.. It says here that the reader will load the fictions
from accross a network and allow you to save them. Uhm, lets see..."
*flip flip flip*
"Ok, It'll require REBOL/View to use, and to run that you need one of the following kinds of
computers, Amiga, Windows, Mac, Linux, or BeOS." *flip flip*
"Uhm, it will be free, and... FREE is this guy NUTS?? How am I going to get my cut out of
this?? Akane!! What were you thinking?? This W I N G - N U T isn't even going to
help save the whales! Nobody does anything for free, and I want my cut for promoting this
silly thing. STUPID, I tell you it's S T U P I D! Free my, oh... The author said he's
using this for practice so he can make more money from his job... Look whoever this
Targhan person is, I WANT MY CUT. DO YOU UNDERSTAND?!!?"
*C R A S H*
"Where am I? Ranma, this is all Ranma's fault."
"Good timing, you can finish this, lost boy."
shuffle-shuffle
"What's this? Oh, uhm.. This Targhan feller just needs some folks to help test this thing
as it gets closer to being finished. Uhhhh, any artisticly inclined people are willing to
help make the initial skin for the project.."
"Heh-heh, lucky it isn't PORK-skins. Eh, Ryoga? oink oink.. ehehehe"
"Why YOU!!!!" *Crash B O O M BANG S M A C K*
"Ranma! Quit picking on poor Ryoga.. LISTEN TO ME!!!!"
