Re:IRC
I can't right now. I don't have Chatzilla installed on this computer and I really need to focus on the Jedi Bendu rewrite I'm working on now. - Brandon Rhea (talk) (contribs) 19:52, 1 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Not a problem, it's all good bro.--  CurrentBigThing  ( Speak ) 19:57, 1 October 2008 (UTC)

Alderaan Affair
I just quickly read over The Alderaan Affair and had a quick question: does this novel take place mostly in Leia's childhood, or does it flash forward at all to when she's older? - Brandon Rhea (talk) (contribs) 20:45, 1 October 2008 (UTC)


 * For the most part it stays in her childhood. That way, I can do what I need to properly support what I plan to do in my "Shadows of the Empire".  I figure I'd stay away from flash forewards if possible, in order to give you the proper room you need.  I mean, I plan on doing a few, but nothing that you couldn't easily work around.--  CurrentBigThing  ( Speak ) 20:53, 1 October 2008 (UTC)

Sounds good. I look forward to more. - Brandon Rhea (talk) (contribs) 20:53, 1 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Dude, for a second I thought Epin was going to punch himself in the face after telling Leia she was pretty. Good stuff man, I can relate to this kid so far. ;) --Victor [[Image:Vic sig logo.png|15px]] talk 21:36, 1 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Lol, thanks man.--  CurrentBigThing  ( Speak ) 21:53, 1 October 2008 (UTC)

Leia article
I've redone Leia Organa (ASWS) and it now includes only sourced information, meaning only information from The Alderaan Affair is there. I'll keep doing this as your story progresses, because it forces me to read the story when I'd just as soon push it off to the side as I do certain other stories. - Brandon Rhea (talk) (contribs) 15:32, 3 October 2008 (UTC)


 * I also updated Bail Prestor Organa and will be doing Breha Antilles-Organa shortly. - Brandon Rhea (talk) (contribs) 18:26, 3 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Heh. No problem.  I apologize for the shortness of the sections.  It's more or less an effort to get them fleshed out.  I may fill in some details later, such as clothing, scenery etc.  Anyway, thanks Rhea.--  CurrentBigThing  ( Speak ) 22:52, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

It's cool. That's stuff really isn't all that important when it comes to articles. Besides, as you said you've never really done this before, so like what happened with me this is all a learning effort. - <font color="#1A2BBB">Brandon Rhea <font color="#1A2BBB">(talk) <font color="#1A2BBB">(contribs) 23:05, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Cool.--  CurrentBigThing  ( Speak ) 23:13, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

Thanks, I'll read it now. --Victor talk 18:30, 5 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Cool.--  CurrentBigThing  ( Speak ) 18:31, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Nice work. I'm liking it. PART V NOW! By the way, how old* is Epin at this moment? I might've missed it or something, but I would imagine fairly young. --Victor talk 18:36, 5 October 2008 (UTC)
 * He's 12. You'd know this if you were paying attention. :) --  CurrentBigThing  ( Speak ) 18:38, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Bah, for some reason I was thinking 14. Thanks. :P --Victor talk 18:41, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Talk page reverts
FYI, even though we used to do it, Administrators currently have no legitimate basis for reverting edits that remove messages from talk pages. If someone such as Jedi Vilxi wants to remove messages, there's really nothing we can do about it. - <font color="#1A2BBB">Brandon Rhea <font color="#1A2BBB">(talk) <font color="#1A2BBB">(contribs) 23:37, 12 October 2008 (UTC) Sufficient, yes, but if a user makes an issue out of it just be sure to let them have their way. - <font color="#1A2BBB">Brandon Rhea <font color="#1A2BBB">(talk) <font color="#1A2BBB">(contribs) 23:50, 12 October 2008 (UTC)
 * I know, but the reason I gave is sufficient enough. Point taken though.--  CurrentBigThing  ( Speak ) 23:48, 12 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Sure.--  CurrentBigThing  ( Speak ) 00:18, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

RE: Pahvulti
I know, but I don't want to be deleting his articles without a fair warning. -- Michaeldsuarez  ( Talk ) ( Deeds ) 15:21, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Fair enough.--  CurrentBigThing  ( Speak ) 15:22, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

Part V
Bah! --Victor talk 17:18, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Soon enough man, I'm working on it presently!--  CurrentBigThing  ( Speak ) 17:22, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

Alright. --Victor talk 18:05, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

Deleting unsourced images
According to the Blocking policy, a user must be given 24 hours to source their images. I've blocked HatedNProud82, the uploader, for a day so that limit extends to 48. Drewton  ( Drewton's Holocron ) 19:32, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Fair enough.--  CurrentBigThing  ( Speak ) 19:35, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

RE: Unsigned template

 * CurrentBigThing, would you consider this spam, personal attack, or a joke? I'm not exactly sure. -- Michaeldsuarez [[Image:Sabersmilygreend.jpg|20px]] ( Talk ) ( Deeds ) 16:21, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

I have a feeling CBT will be highly amused. - <font color="#1A2BBB">Brandon Rhea <font color="#1A2BBB">(talk) <font color="#1A2BBB">(contribs) 16:53, 18 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Is none of the above an answer?.--  CurrentBigThing  ( Speak ) 17:50, 18 October 2008 (UTC)
 * I got a chuckle.--  CurrentBigThing  ( Speak ) 17:50, 18 October 2008 (UTC)
 * I got a whole laugh. For five minutes. Solid. --[[Image:Darth tom sig.png|100px]] <font color="#000001">(talk) <font color="#000001">(contributions) 17:51, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

CBT FTW. --Victor talk 20:45, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

CBT, couldn't you have put up a warning not to be drinking when reading this? Drewton  ( Drewton's Holocron ) 19:51, 19 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Oh wow... that comment caught me off guard, for a second I thought this guy had a case of MR. --[[Image:Xepeyon.JPG|35px]] You Speak, I've Spoken 18:24, 19 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Check out the talk page Of This Article for more, Xep. He tell me to shut up, but that's not very polite, as he doesn't use the magic word.--  CurrentBigThing  ( Speak ) 18:42, 19 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Well said my friend.--  CurrentBigThing  ( Speak ) 20:02, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

Request
CBT, can you please edit your own user page and replace "cabal" with "admin" on both your user page and Jasca Ducato's? They're both protected so I cannot. Also though, on Neomessiah's page, can you replace "cabal" with "admin" please? Thanks a lot. --Victortalk 21:53, 19 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Sure.--  CurrentBigThing  ( Speak ) 22:00, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

Oh, but without the "Tl" part. Tl is just to generate a template's code without activating the template, as if using the "nowiki" code. --Victortalk 22:02, 19 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks. --Victortalk 22:02, 19 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Hehe, I already read it. ;) --Victortalk 22:13, 19 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Haha. Cool man.  I'll blow through what I have to do at work tonight, and have a bit more tomorrow sometime.--  CurrentBigThing  ( Speak ) 22:15, 19 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Nice, I look forward to it. --Victortalk 22:16, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

Tribes vandal
Just as a suggestion, please don't acknowledge that Tribes vandal anymore. Responding to him legitimizies his trolling, and the edit summaries like "chum" and "you're a moron" or whatever it was you were saying is only feeding the troll. Thanks. - <font color="#1A2BBB">Brandon Rhea <font color="#1A2BBB">(talk) <font color="#1A2BBB">(contribs)
 * Of course, I was going to be done with it all the same. That last comment was me erasing his question as to where the source for the image was, which I had previously answered on the IP's talk page.--  CurrentBigThing  ( Speak ) 23:49, 20 October 2008 (UTC)

Part VI

 * Intense stuff, keep it coming. --Victortalk 21:49, 23 October 2008 (UTC)

Joke Articles
Hello. I am running out of things to delete. So I was wandering around thinking, "What does SWF want to get rid of?" I answered myself, "Joke articles." So I go to http://swfanon.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Joke_articles and http://swfanon.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Conjectural_joke_articles and look, and, lo and behold, joke articles. Things that belong in Darthipedia. And, lo and behold, according to another admin, these are technically 'allowed.' Can they be made unallowed so we don't have articles like The Burger King, Gothbrotha Hair Gel, Frank Furt and the rest hanging around? I mean, seriously, we deleted somewhat un-serious takes on Chuck Norris and the other guy, and we haven't deleted those? That's dumb. I request a repeal. - Solus (Bird of Prey)  15:38, 25 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Some of those are "allowed" here, because of a consensus that was done months ago, before our new Joke article policy was instituted. So, I don't think that there is anything anyone can do about them.  I know what you mean though, there are several articles that are joke caliber.  but because we had that "Destroy all bad joke articles", or whatever the hell it was called, many articles were allowed to stay.--  CurrentBigThing  ( Speak ) 01:48, 26 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Bah. - Solus (Bird of Prey)  19:47, 26 October 2008 (UTC)

RE: On?

 * Sorry, I guess I missed you. I'm on for a tiny bit now. --Victortalk 18:24, 26 October 2008 (UTC)

Actually, nevermind, I got to go. Later I'll be on if you have time. --Victortalk 18:29, 26 October 2008 (UTC)

RE: Friendly advice
Sorry, I thought that since Brandon Rhea and I discussed this before, he might have appreciated the joke. -- Michaeldsuarez  ( Talk ) ( Deeds ) 20:18, 26 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Alright.--  CurrentBigThing  ( Speak ) 20:33, 26 October 2008 (UTC)

The mysterious Ben
In Part VI of The Alderaan Affair, is "Ben" who I think he is? - <font color="#1A2BBB">Brandon Rhea <font color="#1A2BBB">(talk) <font color="#1A2BBB">(contribs) 19:59, 27 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Yup. :) --  CurrentBigThing  ( Speak ) 10:24, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

Alright. I'm not going to add it into the Obi-Wan article since there's no confirmation as to who it is, so instead a Ben article could be created and then merged once there's that confirmation. - <font color="#1A2BBB">Brandon Rhea <font color="#1A2BBB">(talk) <font color="#1A2BBB">(contribs) 17:05, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

Proper
Sorry to keep being proper, but "properness" is a word. - <font color="#1A2BBB">Brandon Rhea <font color="#1A2BBB">(talk) <font color="#1A2BBB">(contribs) 16:39, 31 October 2008 (UTC)
 * GAH!!! There it is again!! :) --  CurrentBigThing  ( Speak ) 16:41, 31 October 2008 (UTC)

Indeed. By the way, I am going to add in the Ben information from The Alderaan Affair to the Obi-Wan Kenobi article. I said that there was no confirmation as to who it was, but obviously that's not true. You confirmed it right here on this talk page, so I'll link to that as a source in the Behind the scenes section. After all, authors and interviews are sourced all the time for information about things, so why not here? - <font color="#1A2BBB">Brandon Rhea <font color="#1A2BBB">(talk) <font color="#1A2BBB">(contribs) 16:43, 31 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Cool. You know, we should do more stuff like that.  Author interviews and such.--  CurrentBigThing  ( Speak ) 16:46, 31 October 2008 (UTC)

Agreed. We just need to get people to interview us. One thing I think we should probably ask Drewton and Unit about is in regards to their CUSWFN sponsorship program. Rather than having them sponsor individual novels in the Alternative Saga, they should probably just sponsor the entire Alternative Saga novel series itself. Also, I just added layout information to Alderaanian Royal Palace (ASWS) from Alderaan Affair. - <font color="#1A2BBB">Brandon Rhea <font color="#1A2BBB">(talk) <font color="#1A2BBB">(contribs) 16:50, 31 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Sounds like a plan to me man. And  a "cool" on adding new info! :) --  CurrentBigThing  ( Speak ) 16:52, 31 October 2008 (UTC)

Indeed. I'm working on the Obi-Wan information right now. - <font color="#1A2BBB">Brandon Rhea <font color="#1A2BBB">(talk) <font color="#1A2BBB">(contribs) 16:53, 31 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Alright. The Obi-Wan information is up. - <font color="#1A2BBB">Brandon Rhea <font color="#1A2BBB">(talk) <font color="#1A2BBB">(contribs) 17:05, 31 October 2008 (UTC)
