Kaydee The Goddess Of Sex And Perversion And Exhibitionism And Plagiarism
has been seen typing:


{snip}

Well, actually you apparently didn't so much type any of this as that
you cut and pasted it from Brian Randall's _Pick One_ short which he
expanded into his _Process of Elimination_ series. That'd account for
the fact that there's no typos and/or grammatical stupidities in most of
it except for the final paragraph, which you tacked on to pretend that
this is actually your own work.

Now I normally just delete your atrocities after a short once-over since
I stopped believing you'll ever come up with anything worthwhile that
isn't too painful to read, but this time you went too far.

I suggest you make a lengthy public apology to Brian Randall for
trying to steal his work, and another one to the FFML for assuming we'd
be stupid enough to actually fall for plagiarism this blatant.


Since Brian pretty much stated that the scenario was up for grabs in the
original (which should be archived either at the Lost Library or at
Tannim's), I think you're being a tad too harsh. Then again, when starting

fic from someone else's idea, it should a) be credited to the original
author, and b) expand on the original.

Kaydee, more people than I care to name have already told you that you

need

to exercise at least a modicum of self-criticism before posting your fics.
Writing down what pops into your head is fine, posting it is another

matter.

I'm sorry. I forgot to put the disclaimer. And the title , and the by-line
and the prologue part too. Here it is :

Disclaimer : I don't own them. Please don't sue. Ranma 1/2 is owned by
Rumiko Takahashi-sama and Chrono Trigger is owned by Squaresoft. This fic is
using the 'Pick One' scenario by Brian Randall which he said was free for
authors to use.


P.S. If any ffml admin is reading this I think something is wrong with
subscription settings because I did not get the fic I posted in my inbox and
all I've been getting recently on the FFML have been re e-mails about fics I
have never saw on the FFML any.
