I have an idea for a story that I want to work on. It involves people meeting up from an internet based community amongst other things. It will be written through journal entries following up to and after the events of the story, along with third person narration.
I'd like to base most of the main characters and a few of the secondary characters off of people from FFR. I suggest that you reply to this only if you know who I am am, at least somewhat. Since I do need secondary characters, I guess you could fill out the information if you'd like too, and I will PM you if I decide to use your information. I will be posting a list of people I'm specifically hoping will fill this out. These people will be main characters.
Anyways, on to the list of people I'd like to see fill this out:
Ananana (Dana)
JurseyRider734 (Eva)
Banditcom (Jay)
LD (nuff said)
MalReynolds (Mike, don't care, calling you mike)
Nickadeemus (Nick)
Harrison (..nuff said.)
NightSonnett (Beth)
Tass ( Nuff said)
Specforces (Corey)
and a few others:
Chromer (???)
RavenHexa (Ah Lee See ah, Jelly Bean)
Synth (It'd be nice)
Purplepoise (Jenny)
Any others can feel free to fill this stuff out as well, and like I said earlier, I'll msg you if i've decided to use it.
And now, the information:
Screen Name:
Real Name (First at least, last isn't needed):
Preferred Story Name (Try to keep it quite similar to your real name):
Physical description of yourself (or a link to a pic of you):
Questions:
What is your biggest fear? (This answer is meant to be serious. Looking for something personal here. Answers like SPIDERS, CARROTS, RATS, etc. aren't what I want here.)
If you could have any kind of superpowers/unnatural abilities, what would they be?
Why did you choose that specific power?
What do you get out of being a part of such a great internet community? (Try to make this serious and relate it towards yourself.)
Okay, that's all.
If you don't feel comfortable writing the answers to this out you can PM me the answer. I want everyone who's participating this to know a few things before you start giving me answers though.
This information is for a story that I will be writing and taking quite seriously. I will be basing these characters on yourselves but you have to understand that only knowing you so well (Haven't met most of you in person), I will be creating images of you based on my view of you. Some of you may find some of these things to be very uncharacteristic of yourself, plain wrong even. I just want you to know that the people who made these lists are people I respect and enjoy talking to, which is why I want to portray characters based on them. All of these people are big enough to get around this fact, i'm quite sure. If not, that's alright too, just tell me that you'd prefer not to participate and I will exclude you.
Thanks,
Dan
P.S: Mods, if this isn't getting a lot of responses after a little bit, could you move it to chit chat for awhile. I know not all of the people on this list visit the CT forums, but since it has story/creative writing relevance, I thought it should go here.

You have most of the other information I submitted. Actually, that sentence was flawed. You have all of the information I submitted previously. But here I go for the new questions:
Biggest Fear: Drowing/Rejection. Don't really think those two need to be explained too much.
If I Could Have Any Superpower: Flight.
Why?: Well, now, because of the economy. But on a more serious note, because getting places quickly has always been something I want to do, puncuality... That, and flying is just cool.
What Did You Get Out Of Internet Community: A fistful of insults that I use on a daily basis. I'm not going to lie and say confidence, I already had that when I first started here. It's led me to a stronger dislike of arrogance and racism (You can thank Jello/Aperson/Arch0wl/Chat Regulars for that) and a dislike of random stupidity. A hell of a lot of laughs, funny videos, and the very important knowledge of when to bow out of a fight or admit defeat.

Physical description of yourself: http://www.myspace.com/banditcom http://www.thrillinghill.net/gallery/banditcom
What is your biggest fear?: Dying alone.
If you could have any kind of superpowers/unnatural abilities, what would they be?: Flight
Why did you choose that specific power?: It seems like it'd be the most fun.
What do you get out of being a part of such a great internet community?: Friendships and entertainment. I've met a lot of cool people on here. One I've even met in person.
Note: On my myspace, there is a survey thing. You can read that too and it'll tell you some other things about me.

Real name: Bethany
Preferred name: Beth or Bethany, or Jane. I've always liked the name Jane.
Me: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v226/NightSonnett/Pics%20of%20Me/yeahright.jpg
Fear: Unexpected fires/uncontrolled fires. Really nothing else; I tend to get over being afraid of something if I'm around it for long enough (going down ladders, spiders, etc.) And who the hell is afraid of carrots? Is that an actual fear?
Superpower: Flight, or telekenesis. I'm so lazy, sometimes I really just wish the TV remote could fly across the room to my hand. Flight because I love being in the air, and getting an overview of everything.
Community: Friends. I've met four of you in person! Almost five. (It was close, fish ^.^) I'm also given the opportunity to learn from people, and learn about where they are from thus educating me not only about differences in people, but differences in culture, etc. I value that a lot.

Also, I've notcied that mentioning my skin color every other post (just kidding) gets a rise out of some people.

Losing my sanity.

Invisibility and Mind Control.

Questions:
What is your biggest fear? dying too young or wasting my potential and having to regret things later on.
If you could have any kind of superpowers/unnatural abilities, what would they be? Probably the power to control time. But the power of mind control would be tempting >.>
Why did you choose that specific power? Time is an amazing thing, even though no matter how long I ponder it, it's still confusing. Being able to control it would be amazing. That and, I want to see the future and the past, regardless of breaking any laws of physics XD
What do you get out of being a part of such a great internet community? Something to keep me busy when I have a lot of space time? XD Actually, the people. The community itself it what I get out of it. There are a lot of great people here I know very well.

Questions:
What is your biggest fear? The dark, and being alone. I litterally turn on ALL the lights in my house when I'm home alone at night.
If you could have any kind of superpowers/unnatural abilities, what would they be: To read minds
Why did you choose that specific power: Because then I could know exactly what others are thinking, and never have to worry about wether or not someone is lying to me. Basically a whole trust thing.
What do you get out of being a part of such a great internet community?
Alot. I've learnt that the internet isn't as 'dangerous' as what we thought it was when we were taught in elementary. Not everyone is a pedophile. I've met alot of great friends that I talk to on msn everyday. Some I've talked to on the phone. And I've even met two. Learnt to realize that I shouldn't put up with elitists (sry arch & ap lolo).

Questions:
What is your biggest fear? (This answer is meant to be serious. Looking for something personal here. Answers like SPIDERS, CARROTS, RATS, etc. aren't what I want here.) I am afraid of failing to satisfy the demands of those who have power over me.
If you could have any kind of superpowers/unnatural abilities, what would they be? Since I like to imagine that people see me as an intellectual person, I have always wondered what it would be like to have some form of psychic power. I'll leave it up to the writer to determine the specifics.
Why did you choose that specific power? See above.
What do you get out of being a part of such a great internet community? (Try to make this serious and relate it towards yourself.) What I draw from the community is a drive to improve and succeed, which is something everyone should have, as well as a willingness to try new challenges while being uncertain of the outcome.

It's more than a year old, cuz I don't have a digital camera anymore, but it gets the main points across: Blondish, blue eyes, white, 6'1", 140 lbs., really hot (I'm clearly on fire). I know I look like I hadn't slept in a couple days, probly cuz i pretty much hadn't. Oh, and I'm 16. And I've got this one too, from my Facebook:
http://i29-3.facebook.com/pics/0/0/n1238130034_2965.jpg
What is your biggest fear? I am afraid I'll say or do something that alienates all my friends. I end up being pretty shy. Not particularly afraid of it, cuz it probly wouldn't happen, but that's probably the biggest fear that ever comes up in my mind. It's gotta be the stereotypical high school fear.
If you could have any kind of superpowers/unnatural abilities, what would they be? Flight. I mean, to be able to fly at any speed and any altitude I want, and i guess not have my ears pop, withstand massive G forces, etc.
Why did you choose that specific power? To be able to fly would be really awesome. But on top of that, it has lots of practical uses. I could easily get lots of money doing all sorts of work. Think: Fighting crime as superhero, fedex same hour air, I could do some great work joining special forces... I could plant C4 and be out in a snap. And if those fell through, I could always join the circus...
What do you get out of being a part of such a great internet community? I know I posted in a thread about this, but failing to find it, I'll come up with a completely new answer. For one thing, I get to chat with people when I'm doing homework. It's sort of an extension of IM for when most of my friends from school have gone to sleep. That's why I usually, at least originally, would only post late at night. So I get a whole new batch of people who I know, though I wouldn't call anyone I only know through a forum a friend, and everybody's friendly with each other. I guess it really adds color to my home life. There's always something new to talk about, always people to talk to.
How's that for enough information?
