Winter 2015 Ciddies- Speech Request Thread

[Fynn]

Alright, pipsqueaks! Time to spread the Christmas cheer by writing Ciddie speeches! (if we don't, Award Clause will make us regret many things)

If you want to write a speech, just volunteer in the thread and I'll add you. You can take on as many speeches as you like. You can also do audio versions if you want, or you can even ask someone else to do a recording of your speech for you. (I may write some speeches myself, but I'm still not 100% sure if I'll make it).

When's the deadline? Good question! We'll figure that out soon enough, so don't you worry. Memento mori and all that jazz.

Oh wait! The red guy just told me the deadline is Friday 6 PM EST! SO YOU BETTER HURRY YOUR DAMN ASSES UP!!!

Just to make things clear:

Open speeches are in blue.

Taken speeches are in green.

Speeches that desperately need someone to do them (hehe) just before the deadline are in red.

[Fynn]

Awesome! Just 9 speeches left!

[Shaibana]

Pretty sure they're all male.

I'm not entirely convinced, personally.

me neither

[Pumpkin]

Yeah, they are all male or at least all identify as male, so I would go with that

[Formalhaut]

If you can, use gender neutral pronouns where possible. It's what I did with my speech (unless I knew the preferred pronoun already).

[Shaibana]

im just going to asume they are all male and hope i dont offend anyone :$

pfff.. im not making more then 1 speech...
its already taking me ages as im writing about all 9 of them
im only at the 3rd yet D:

[Fynn]

For another one, you could always just take a more general approach and not write about every single member.

[Formalhaut]

For another one, you could always just take a more general approach and not write about every single member.

I actually tend to refer to them by their screen name, generally, forgoing the use of pronouns (again, unless I know them).

[Shaibana]

For another one, you could always just take a more general approach and not write about every single member.

na-ah, its what i do! :3
i dont know about the time difference, but ill try 3 more stories tonight and 3 more tomorrow morning and then ill sen you (dutch time)

[Shauna]

Just so you're clear, they all male.

[Bubba]

Just so you're clear, they all male.

There's only one way to settle this.

Lads, drop your pants.

[Formalhaut]

Lads, drop your pants.

But surely you're aware that the physical characteristics of a person doesn't indicate their gender! ;)

[Pumpkin]

While that is true, I think we should see their peepees anyways

For science, you know how it is

[Shauna]

This thread has gone weird places and I am now checking out.

[Sephex]

*rushes in thread out of breath*

I heard there was a boner contest?!

[Shauna]

:aimkiss:

[Ayen]

You want me to drop what now?

[Formalhaut]

I finish my final first semester tomorrow, meaning I'll be free for awhile before "Oh crap, dissertation" sinks in. If there's any speeches I can whip up to help out, just throw em' my way.

I mean, not that there's actually many speeches left. Good jobs guys!

[Queen Award, First of Her Name]

We could definitely use theMLT ones first as those will be done the earliest, if anyone has time!

[Formalhaut]

I'll tell you what: 18:00 EST equates to 23:00 GMT, my time. I should be done about 15:00 from final University lectures during the day.

Give me MLT 'Too Busy to Vote Due to Fallout 4'. I have an idea for that one. After that one, I'll see if I can chip in with the remaining speeches :D

[Shaibana]

alright alright hold your horses!
calm down, Calm Down.. I SAID CALM DOWN *slaps a random person*
im over half way of the speech now

http://i.imgur.com/MDDFOef.gif

[Bubba]

Bear with me on mine, they're on the way!

[Night Fury]

I'm getting mine in tonight. I haven't forgotten but I've had stuff on this week, they're coming though.

[Queen Award, First of Her Name]

Just to let everyone know, Santa has received 19 speeches so far! Keep up the good work everyone, your work is very much appreciated

[Pumpkin]

I will take best article series as well

[Queen Award, First of Her Name]

I'm especially going to need 50-26 for tomorrow so please send those in ASAP, and claim the remaining few if you can! The rest also need to be claimed and sent in by Sunday please and thank you.

Thanks again for all of your help everyone

[Formalhaut]

I'm done for the day, so I'll get the Fallout one ready now!

[Night Fury]

Intimidating and Stylish are done, dramatic will come over tomorrow!

[Freya]

If got two left to do! I'll get them to you asap!

[Formalhaut]

The Fallout MLT is completed! Bear in mind I have no prior knowledge of the series, so comedy mileage may vary. :shobon:

[Bubba]

MLT Get Together done.

Comedy guaranteed.

[Queen Award, First of Her Name]

Probably best to send them to me at this point. Thank you!

[Bubba]

You'll have MLT to be on the naughty list in the next few hours :D

[Queen Award, First of Her Name]

Ciddies start in 2 hours if I can get what we have please!

[Bubba]

Ciddies start in 2 hours if I can get what we have please!

[Freya]

Okay I dind't get to my last two last night, I'll get them to you as you're revealing! Last minute go go go!

[Fynn]

Haha, I'm three speeches behind XD

[Fynn]

Just a couple hours left until the second half of the revelations, and we still have six speeches not taken by anyone! If you want to submit any last minute speeches before the event, PM Award Claus. There's still time!

[Queen Award, First of Her Name]

We're still missing some if anyone wants to write them during the Ciddies!

[Sephex]

Alright, I'll write one now.

[Karifean]
