    Alright so I could not find a Non-HP recc thread so I posted one myself because this is one of the best soon-to-be published fictional stories made.
    *tries to link but can't due to spywear and non-ability to copy and paste links*
    FUCKING DAMNIT
    ok so go here, www.stardestroyer.net and read Armageddon??? in the fanfic section.

    Seriously this guy already has one story called The Big One (TBO to geeks) published and selling (It's a large series) and this new work is friggen awesome, and planned to be published when he is done.

    What happens is basically God abandon's the human race and gives us to Satan. Sadly for him we have Tanks, assault rifles, IFV's, and rockets while they use trident's. Neither side has shown all of their capabilities and as seen thus far death (the guy that kills people) is soon to come to earth.(To make sure humanity submit's to his and Satan's rule and in the seven plages of egypt way) He intends to make it a struggle from what I have read.

    This is not fanwork, this has hours if not weeks of study and thinking behind it using a crapton of books and other sources to make it fit.
    The guy pumps out 1-2,000 word parts every 3-6 day's and I have found that sometimes he put's out 2 parts per day. The only thing is it's not in chapter's but parts. I think, like TBO must have been, he is using people as a soundboard.
    Read it! 55 parts and counting and well over 100,000 words. You will not find this anywhere else. After all he WILL publish it in the end.

    ... I am also saddened by the fact that there is no 'laughing' smiley.:(




    *Wow crapton is spellchecked as Krypton... odd.

    EDIT- I waited awhile to make sure noone else posted it. Not to mention it's also in the cleaned up fic archives, which means its posted in a solid format.

    Sounds interesting, though why the author is publishing it on the net with the intent of being published is beyond me.

    I've seen the same public novel ploy used before, but it was on ff.net. After the author had finished writing and posting it all, she removed it from the net. She since spent her time cleaning up the original novel and presumably has, or is about to, have it published.

    LEARN TO FUCKING APOSTROPHE GODSDAMNIT

    Seriously, what the fuck.

    I am saddened by the fact that you seem to think you need one.


    You know what else saddens me? That the owner of www.stardestroyer.net has the last name of 'Wong'. The pilot who kills two demons in the first chapter is also named Wong. COINCIDENCE? Oh, and the owner's homepage features a section on 'sex toy reviews'. Make of that what you will.

    The first chapter has President Motherfucking Bush declaring war on the demons. Yeah, no. Just no.

    Double punctuation in the title? Not the greatest of ideas if you're trying to go pro.

    Picture the meeting with the publisher. "How many other people have read this?" "I've got no idea, since it's been freely available to absolutely everyone since the first chapter was written." "..."

    I FEEL THE FAILURE OVERTAKING ME
    IT IS NOT A GOOD PAIN

    Yeah, I really don't like the sound of this.

    "Hey horny dude! I've got a nuke!!! FUCK YEAH!"

    "I am death, you might want to check on your mother."

    I'll probably read it anyway but...it won't be a pleasent experience.

    Also wtf is with the self insert???

    EDIT: Yep it's gheey.

    It seems to be a tradition over there. Look back through the Fanfic section to find numerous topics that say basically "Who wants a character named after them in my story?"

    So because it's been awhile since I've been in school and the spellchecker doesn't catch it (which I use) perhaps you should complain to the mod's instead of me. Suck it up and don't be a dick over 4 words. :rolleyes:
    OCD is bad, Although it DOES interest me that you said Godsdamnit instead of goddamnit. Unless you made a filthy typo you are so against.

    Nefar- Yes it is tradition since alot of the people there are helping him write it. Wong is the owner of the site, he MADE it, so I can see why he uses the name since wong is extremely anti-creationist. Hence the use of the name. Once. In one single part. (I love how he tears critics who e-mail him apart)

    Taure- Then read and find out, or are you a intolerant that can't handle independent thinking from official religion? Sorry, but you came off that way. You read shit on magical people who say 'Great Merlin' instead of 'Oh God'.


    Seratin- Self-insert would imply that wong is writing this, he is not. Another thing is nuclear weapons have not been used, in fact only the demons have used WMD's and it has been pretty much stated that they will not be used above a couple bombs in hell. There are over 100 billion humans in hell after all. I will also state that he got published, you have not. Forgive me if I have different tastes then you.

    Immolo- Say it with me now!

    O.R.I.G.I.N.A.L. F.I.C.T.I.O.N.

    If you can't write better and get published then stop calling it fanfiction which insults the fact that he is working to make this a actual book, of which he has already had one published. You are on a Harry Potter site. I will remind you that the last books fucking sucked ass and yet she still made million's. Some people liked them, others did not. Shall I call HP fanfiction of the LOTR saga? It is pretty much baseline for fantasy fiction. :rolleyes:


    In other words, you can like it or hate it but don't insult a story that is well made enough to get published. Yea HP in the last parts was bad but she still has published work. We do not. What sells sells.

    PS SpellCheck used. If you have problems, complain to the MOD's OCD grammer nazi's. Pull the stick from you're ass. :rolleyes:

    EDIT- Battlepope? o_O

    No, the plot premise was just retarded. Fighting the devil with guns? WTF? That's just something I have no interest in reading. Devil should WTFpwn everyone.

    In fact, any premise that involves God is retarded, because it's introduced an omnipotent factor into the story.

    And if God is not? What if he is a simple long living being that has been around a long time? This story goes deeply into the 3 main religions like he is not. He is simply a being of high power and advanced age. Hell, it's implied that God DIDN'T create us and that angels and demons are based off of humans. Probably because we evolved and beings from other demensions took notice.

    Shit, I thought this was a rational fourm but some of you seem to be nearly fundamentalist in regards to this story.

    Then "God" is no longer the applicable word to describe it.

    Edit: Wow, hypocrisy. I just remembered the thread I made a while back on pantheism saying people should be able to define "God" however they like. Lulz.

    Desperate defence is desperate. I have never tried to get published and in all honesty I don't think I have the talent. It doesn't change the fact that this is complete shit. It really is terrible.

    Now why don't you crawl back to him and take his cock in your mouth like a good little fangirl and get the fuck of our DLP.

    *sigh* Henceforth why you need to read the friggen story to understand. When Humanity figures it out we do not call him god, we call him yahweh. (I am not sure where that is from but I think that's a old name for him, better then "God like")


    Honestly, you're argument comes down to "It's God, so it's stupid to write about. He will own us".


    Guess what?
    I can nuke every fucking magical person on earth within 30 mikes.
    Orbital pictures from SAT's don't have 'muggle' brain's', nothing will stop the nuke's. Unless you can prove that something 100,000 miles above earth can be hit with a spell. FFS they can barely hit each other at fucking 3 feet.


    You read fantasy about magical people and you can't handle going against a, what I will call, false God?
    You ignore that in this UNIVERSE God is not a God.
    You can take HP but you can't take a seriously studied story?
    Honestly, for fuck's sake you read harry potter.

    You're != your.

    Use plurals and apostrophes correctly.

    Yahweh is God's name in Old Testament, in the Judeo-Christian tradition.

    Wow you can insult, I'll give you props for that. Still need to learn though. I have seen alot worse. Oh and I'm male.

    You have a long way to go to get me pissed. I promise you that I will suck his cock alot as long as he bring's me parts.

    After all he has talent enough to get published, you do not.

    Can I ask if you suck Rowlin's dildo cock since you're here?

    I will not double post but timm I did not know that. :)
    Thank you for informing me.
    *shrugs* youre thinking, it's a good story if you get into it. you didn't become rabid.
    Then again I respect you. I like you're stories.

    PS and no what you said doesn't bother me.

    You, ignorant shit, have just insulted God. Way to go.

    (Explanation: Its not pronounced that way. The vowels were lost, therefore, saying your saying his/her name wrong. This is interpreted as an insult.)

    Don't fuck with religion. Just... don't. Someone fucking close this thread until it turns into an argument if the Jews should have Israel, or at least move it to Political.

    This isn't a 'seriously studied story,' its a would-be atheist who thinks it'd be cool to write about pwning the Devil. Theres already a movie about that. it called 'Time Bandits,' or something. Wikipedia it.

    How would nukes stop the devil? From what I understand, it lives in eternal hellfire.

    Never post here again. Or at that site, and delete this crappy-assed attempt at religious fiction. I've seen it done well (Jim Butcher, Time Bandits, some X-Files, Shezza), but you mangled it. I had a similar HP plot bunny, but I realized it couldn't, and shouldn't, be done. Shezza, in the great word of Parry Cox, is 'the exception that proves the rule'.

    On DLP, we like someone that defends themselves. We don't like someone who argues from the grave. Your wrong. You'll soon get the banstick.

    PS

    El-ect-ro-mag-net-ic pulse n.

    A sudden discharge of electromagnetic energy, caused by massive atomic explosions, solar flares, or electrical activity. Destroys information of magnetic storage devices, such as computers, or magnetic tape. In Canada, such phenomenon recently crippled Quebec's electrical system.

    A magnetic pulse of sufficient power can destroy any unprotected piece of equipment. (i.e, anything not in a military bunker or covered in copper mesh. That means satellites. All of them.)

    I see this is becoming a muggle vs. wizard discussion. Just for your information, satellites do not orbit the earth 100,000 miles above it. More like 200 miles. Do go visit the muggle vs. wizard thread. All this information has been disputed, and you are merely wasting your time.

    If you start this shit again, I'll put on my mini-mod cape and wtfpwn you so fucking hard it'll become the stuff of legends. The story sounds shit, but I'll give it a try I suppose.

    EDIT: Reyhkt beat me to it, but this just reinforces my statement.
