Howdy Folks!

I'm a new comedy writer type thing who happened upon this very forum during my quest for information about the Sitcom Trials. You'll be pleased to discover that my entry 'Desperate Men' has made it into the final 32 of the competition.

I'll be going to the piss up...er, writer's social on 4th October, so will hopefully meet / annoy / have sex / steal copiously from other writers on this forum who've also made it to the final heats.

For my next trick, let's see if I can do an entire episode of the Incredible Hulk in Emoticon format.

Starts off happy -

Meets a group of bad guys -

They kick him in the nuts -

He get's angry, they wouldn't like him, etc. -

>_<

Hulks out! -

Hulk Smash! -

David Banner walks along highway to sad piano music -

I have a little cry, even though I'm a rock hard bloke -

Pirates Attack Cardiff! -

The End

As you can tell, I'm quite desperate to impress and need validation, so please say hello.

Hello RC, is that OK? it's far too much to type otherwise. Shit! I've typed loads now anyway.

Congrats on the competition entry and welcome to the boards!

Do I take it from your Pirates attacking Cardiff that you're a gashead. If so, yay! \0/

If not, forget that bit. *waves hand past RCs face and does Jedi mind trick*

Edit; Can't see your avatar btw.

Hello Nil,

RC will do just fine, especially on hangover Sunday. I don't know why my Avatar didn't show up, it might have something to do with my total inability to figure out the Google Web.

No, I'm not a gashead, which I assume is some form of nickname for a Welshie. Though I did go to Cardiff once (on a bet).

I've posted a sketch on the Critique forum to have my BSG baptism by fire. Please check it out and totally destroy my hopes and dreams of being a comedy writer.

The problem with posting on a comedy forum is that you always have to be witty and humorous in every post, which is a lot of pressure.

Um...big spanner! You may not think that's very funny, but it makes my two year old neice crack up every time.

Thanks again for the welcome.

Cheers,

RC

BTW as this is called the BSG forum, do you get a lot of irate Battlestar Galactica fans wandering around lost and perplexed?

I'm not a writer myself, just a fan of comedy. Though I don't visit Critique very often, I'm sure someone will be happy to dash your writing dreams.

No, a Gashead isn't a Welshie, but nevermind.

Now, wank spanners (hands) IS funny.

By your command.

Nil

Hi Renegade!

Well done on making the final 32. And you're a new writer?
You jammy bugger.

Hey Renegade! *waves*

Hello zooo and Scatterbrained Floozy,

Yep, I'm completely brand new to the world of comedy writing. The Sitcom Trials had a very good workshop this past July and I found it to be immensely educational.

Yes, I am a lucky bugger to make it into the final 32. However, I'm up against 31 other great writers, which is quite a daunting task.

Thank you so much for the welcome and obviously, I'll let you know how I get on.

Cheers,

RC

Hello! Avatar fixed. Welcome, welcome. And welcome.

Yay! \0/ Giggity, giggity.

Aaron, you hard rockin' mega star! Thank you for fixing my Avatar.

Alllriiight!

Hey RC! Welcome to the board...

Thanks EllieJP!

Everyone seems dead friendly in here. I'm suspicious. When do you stuff me in the Wicker Man? (But not Alan Whicker, that would be creepy).

I'm, naked, banging on my wall as we speak.

Sorry for the mental image.

Heelau, RC! And welcome!

Please don't say funny things, you'll just make everyone feel bad.

Hellllllllooooooooo!
