Exactly what it says on the tin.
On November 3rd it will have been exactly one year since my first MK story was finished; a 73,000 word monstrosity. So far it's 10 months later and I'm only like 5000 words into my second, and I'm getting rather sick of the sickening lack of progress which sickens me to the point I'm sick of myself and my keyboard which is sick of me.
So.
You.
All.
Must.
Yell.
At.
Me.
DAILY.
I am to get at least one page done every day. You are to repeat to me that I have here in this thread declared my sickening contempt for myself for such an astounding lack of progress, that I have in my own words declared that this story must be written and there shall be no excuses.
One. Page. Every. Day.
There shall be no excuses. If I show up in this chat you are to shower me with demands that I make progress. However, my sickening laziness and irrepressible urge to shirk off work must not be underestimated. Therefore, you are authorized to take the following steps.
Hound me. I may, when asked about my progress, attempt to shrug off the question or distract the issue. Do not be fooled; zone in like predatory... predators and do not let the issue drop. Hound me, harass me with private messages. Keep it up until I get sick of it and relent and do my page of work.
On some occasions this may be such an intimidating prospect that I may not show up on the chat at all. Even if there are days that I am just for random, other reasons not online, you are to bombard my inbox with private messages and crudely veiled threats to get working. If you feel that I am ignoring these, poke Virmir or a mod to get my e-mail address (which is hidden to the average user).
At some point you may actually elicit more of a reaction than just shirking away and trying to hide. You may detect slight overtures of frustration or hostility. Do not be fooled by aggressive behavior, it is a ploy. Simply respond taunting me in outrageous fashions or spamming me with Rickrolling links but AT NO TIME TAKE ME SERIOUSLY OR AT MY WORD .
EDIT: EVIL thing didn't let me finish!
I may in some cases... fudge what I'm writing... Since there is no way to verify what I've actually written since it's in a notebook at the moment, you are to take my notes of progress with a small heaping of salt, or a truckload if you think it wise. Treat my replies of progress suspiciously and with caution and always suspect me of duplicity, at least a little bit. If this is the case, countinue relentless campaigns of hounding and jeering to ensure continued progress to overcome my sickening apathy.
In conclusion; above all remind me that I am the one who wrote this post and suggested all of this to you.

You need to kick me because I haven't even finished publishing all my MK stories. :<
-
I've only posted one =p And I really need to get back into it because I have a huge maga plot in my head to write out that could rival Matt (Ok, maybe not in sheer word count but still)
-
Finally finished NO THANKS TO YOU NOT-POKING-ENOUGH PEOPLE WHO ARE USELESS NYAAAAAHHH
-
I've learned that it's not good to kick anything that is capable of eating your foot. Sorry.

Regardless of how many people poked or did not poke – you ended up getting it done at the end anyway. Does that mean that you had it inside of you all along Toast? Regardless, has to feel pretty good to get that stuff done, major work like that I mean.
