I think you're mising something here..
It might well be Oscar is a GROUP of well-known writers.. it would, I
think, be more likely...!

Ack! *Me* Oscar?!? No way! The day I write a self-insertion lemon
with
a cat or tiny toons is the day I quit writing fanfiction for good
and
put myself out of my misery with a chicken cannon. :)
Besides, how do we know that *you* aren't Oscar? After all, I
wasn't
the one that wrote *P-Chan's Lover*. ;P
Sincerely,

You know, after reading the riotously funny MST "Oscar Toon 6.7,"
B-ko and I really started wondering about Oscar. Could there really
exist such a person who writes such consistently *Bad* stories? Could
Oscar just be some
punk who wrote something shocking and grotesque simply for the
attention he would (and did) receive? Or, as Ryoucilo postulates,
could Oscar be someone else, an otherwise respected member of this
mailing list?
Sorry, Frank, B-ko and I did entertain the idea that *you* were Oscar
simply for such marvelous target practice in your MSTs. It would be
awfully convenient. (And just plain awful.)
Which brings me to my point. Let's assume that Oscar is an otherwise
respected and well known author on the mailing list, and has written
his "stories" under a psuedonym and a different email account. B-ko
and I thought it
might prove humorous to poll the FFML on this.
By PRIVATE email only, tell Bridget and I which FFML author you think
is Oscar, and the reason why you think that. In keeping with the
subject, no reason is too ridiculous. To keep the spam down, we really
mean PRIVATE email.
Any votes which get sent to the ML (even CC'd) will be disqualified.
Cast your vote before the end of the month. The top five/ten/twenty or
whatever authors will be announced along with what we think were the
best reasons for
why they were chosen.
Just something to stem the tide of adfics...
