Tell me, what is the point of displaying prominent works if you have to search the whole thread to see which ones were accepted. Especially when you only need to look at the first page to see the ones who were not that great.

There are no current accepted works. :/

The only one we had was Kale's, and his went inactive for too long.

(6:50 PM) Sam: http://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/thread-111319.html are you still doing this? If not, I think an index of the 'best' Fan-Fics on YCM would be a better idea.
(6:51 PM) Charlie: I dunno about that one, really.
(6:52 PM) Sam: Hmm? Elaborate, please?
(6:52 PM) Charlie: Not sure what to do with the "Featured Fanfics" and all.
An index would be fine, I guess.
(6:54 PM) Sam: Mhmm.

Thoughts?

I´d like to apply, but I have a cancelled project and a new upcoming fanfic project. Can you post it from somewhere else? Otherwise I would have to first make a thread down here, which will be a lot of work considering the old fanfic has been running for 2 years and 90 chapters and is highly considered to be one of the better fanfics on other boards.

Cross-posting would be considered advertising, even if it's indirect. You'd have to post it on a new thread here.

Dear Diary,
3 Mar 1919.

Today I attended the funeral for Albert and Eduard. It was a sad, sad event. I was dressed formally, and in full black, as the proper respect for a funeral. It was a closed casket funeral, and Von Mises did not attend, although he was invited. They had left no will, however, with their deaths, I was virtually homeless.

I recalled back to that night, where I had been so close with death, before I fainted, I recalled the promises I kept to various people. The people whose lives that I tried to change, the girl at Braudenberg, or the villagers at that small town. I didn't see them being fulfilled. My promise to right the wrongs in the war, I have not fulfilled them yet, perhaps the entire episode was gods way of telling me to keep to my task.

After all, I've been doing arbitrage work. So, it was that day that I had realized, economics is for the people. Spending weeks at time, I devised a n economic system, I coined it Liberalism. Still, this system was imperfect, and much work is needed.

Anyways, Von Mises agreed to teach me 'macroeconomics' the economy of an entire nation, the world, not just the basics of management, supply, and demand.

I would sit in the library for hours at a time to read, whatever books it might have been. The German Ideology, Das Kapital, The Exchequer, The Wealth of Nations, The Road to Serfdom, etc. Trying to find the solution, the solution to why people are poor, why do countries go to war?

Yet, at times, I would turn to Marx, I would be entranced by the ideas in "The Labor Theory of Value", only to have Von Mises snap at me in the end. 3 Months had went by, it was time to attend Albert and Eduard's funeral.

Of course, respects were paid, but I did not say anything. I left, and when I returned to 'home', I packed my bags and prepared to leave, only to see my father. He asked me, with a very serious tone, "Why are you studying economics? A dismal science invented by Jews?".

To this I had no good reply, he the posed another question, "Boy, you are 17 now, turning 18 in July, you should take responsibility and earn your keep through work, not through investing, or whatever you call it."

I was furious. The idea of money making money could be explained, being Anti-Semitic I had always known. But, he had wore an red cloth over his arm, and on it, a cross, not an ordinary cross, a swastika. His idea that majority of financiers in Berlin were Jewish is correct, but it doesn't mean they cause it, or "betrayed" Germany at the end. Furious, I blurted out, "It's not like you made an honest day of work either! You sat in a church all day telling people miracles will happen while they do not!"

My father was flaming hot now, and he tried to strike me, but I had enough, I grabbed arm and struck him square in the face. He was really mad now, "You are not my son. No son strikes his father!", he roared. He left in a hurry, but those were hollow threats. I had already made a decent amount of money from the Stock Market with my arbitrage technique, of course, as the allies sat down at Versailles, I knew these days may come to an end.

Just wondering, do Prolouges/Prefaces count as chapters?

This fan fic is very new, but has had all good reactions and a few people that are reading it actively. It's based partly off members of my family. I'm Robert, for that's my middle name. My niece is Alexis, and that's her middle name. Most people from my family here are named by their middle name, or what their middle name is close to.

Taken from Chapter 6 - Espada Encounter (Click to View)

"Oh, you got some fighting spirit in you, don't you?" he said with a chuckle. "Too bad, I don't waste my time on weak, unskilled worms like you and that kitsune over there..." he pointed one of his bony fingers at Renamon. This seemed to tick Renamon off, as she rushed towards him and gave him a strong kick into his chest, but all he did was to twitch slightly in mere irritation. "What, is that all you got? Disappointing." he frowned yet again, and with a swipe of his hand, he merely slapped Renamon into a tree, as it crashed upon her impact with it.

"RENAMON!" Rika cried out in desperation, and sighed in relief as Renamon stood up. Her gaze turned to the man, as she looked infuriated and worried about his power. To be able to hit someone that hard, it was impossible that this being was human. "W-What are you?! And why are you here?!"

"Keh, I suppose I could spare you an answer..." the man smirked, and in an instant, he pulled out something from his back. A giant, axe-like weapon with two crescent-shaped blades connected to each others backs, the blades located on the inner circle. A looped chain was attached at the end of the long black handle, and seemed to be connected to his waist. Rika gasped at the size of his weapon. "I am Espada Nr. 5! Nnoitra Jiruga!" he opened his mouth and revealed his pointy tongue, revealing a tattoo of the number 5 on it, before pulling it back into his mouth. Renamon was now beside Rika again, ready for a fight.

"Rika, let me take him down." she said confidently. "He only got a lucky shot that time, and it didn't even hurt. I can take him down." Rika was now hesitating. Nnoitra seemed stronger than what he had just demonstrated, and with the size and cruel shape of his weapon, one single mistake could lead to a fatal injury...or even death. But if Renamon was so confident in her abilities, could it mean that she could stand a chance against Nnoitra? She finally made up her mind, and pulled her Digivice.

"Ok! Let's show him what a real fight is about!" she said determined, and Renamon nodded, coldly glaring at Nnoitra. He didn't seem the slightest intimidated, and just smirked on.

"Keh, this will be interesting!" he smirked, and charged at Renamon with his axe swinging after her. Renamon made a quick move and dodged Nnoitra's swing, and prepared to punch his face. But Nnoitra had other plans, and yanked in the handle of his weapon, causing it to return towards him and Renamon, who had to back-flip in order ot dodge the inward-pointed blade. She hoped the blade would cut Nnoitra in half, but then, she saw in fear that the blade didn't even scratch Nnoitra, but instead seemed to grind along his body, a screeching sound occuring and sparks glimmering as the blade his him. Nnoitra smirked. "Oh, I should have mentioned; we Arrancar - as we are called - have enhanced iron skin, or as we call it, Hierro. There is no way any blade can cut me!" then he charged Renamon, grabbed her face, and pummeled her into the ground.
