Hahaha... please don't kill me. -hides behind uber buff Chef-
NOTE: THE FIRST HALF OF THIS IS MY REASONS FOR DISAPPEARING. IF YOU DON'T CARE AND JUST WANT THE GOOD NEWS, SKIP DOWN TO THE -.
So... um... I totally dropped the ball. -winces at boo's- I know, I know! I promised I wouldn't abandon Total Drama State Race like the trend is for that type of fic, but I did anyway. I didn't mean to! Honest! Life is a BEACH (if you know what I mean), seriously.
I was just starting to really get down to writing the first chapter when life smacked me in the face like Chef's cooking. No offense, Chef. -Chef grunts-
ANYWAY, I had finals for culinary school, plus finding an externship. Been busy with that and then got hired, so been working 40+ hours a week. Then there's family time. Plus my love life's been about as bumpy as a country road after the snow thaws. So basically life kicked my butt then handed it to me on a silver platter.
It's not that I grew bored or lost interest in the story, that's not the case at all. I thought about it a lot. I simply did not have the time nor energy to work on it. So I'm sorry for the half a year delay...
Okay, enough excuses, let's get down to the nuts and bolts of why I put this up. My life's finally become relatively stable so I plan on actually getting back to work on Total Drama State Race. -applause- Except I've got one problem.
The system I was going to use to vote off contestants was to receive "votes" or PM's from the creators of said contestants on who should be kicked off. Unfortunately, after half a year of stagnation, I fear they may not even care about the story or their characters anymore. SO, while I still have a relatively clean slate, I'd like to get this matter settled.
Listed below are the characters I've ACCEPTED, the ones who were going to be the contestants alongside my characters. If you see your character, please PM me saying if you want to still have your character be a contestant or not. If I receive no PM after two weeks, I'll just assume it's a negative and drop the character as a contestant. Note: I'll also be PM'ing the creators of these characters in case they didn't alert the story or me.
ALSO! I am in need of a few more contestants, and I have a feeling a lot of the list will be dumped since it's been so long. So please, PM me your characters! I'll re-post the application at the end of this chapter for your convenience.
IMPORTANT: Apparently, people didn't read my request in the last chapter. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE do not review with your character application! It will be ignored and not even read over, let alone considered. You MUST PM me! Thank you.
Now the list (I also included the character's stereotype and state so those applying now have a heads-up on the stereotypes/states I already have. Feel free to apply with the same stereotype since these are all unconfirmed, but you may have to change it if that person comes forward and wants their character to stay.):
