Scalzi's New Deal...

[ratsy]

Oh I see...no one that is popular or on trend should be awarded for it. Got it (sounds like the academy awards)

 

[Ray McCarthy]

Or like an award for the best buggy whip

I can't see that is a useful comparison to the Hugos etc (which are mad, but beside the point).

Choice of some actual trophies to award for good buggy whips etc.

I've tried to be very, very patient - but when someone joins chrons and does nothing but try to continually raise petty arguments against the rest of the community, it's time for them to find somewhere else to play.

In the meantime, back to the news about Scalzi's deal...

 

[Nerds_feather]

There are a number of people who enjoy Scalzi's work on this forum and brushing us off as 'fanboys' is insulting to say the least. I will back off from this thread and stick to threads where I find posters with open minds.

Don't let the troll get to you, man! The rest of us value your contributions here and elsewhere.

 

[Vertigo]

No worries NF, it takes more than that to scare me off the Chrons And as I've privately said to Brian that I also should have refrained from the 'open mind' comment. Hey ho, I still enjoy reading Scalzi and I've still got Redhsirts on my wish list

 

[chopper]

meh, puppy troll who refused to engage with sensible counter-arguments. who'd'a thunk it of a puppy? i had to restrain myself, though admittedly it doesn't look much like it

anyway: i'll be interested to see how Tor curate the rest of their roster....
