Proof that we need to review more. Because if Yami, after being gone for a month, is still the most meticulous reviewer she's seen? We're doing something wrong.
(As a side note, I've always wanted her to review me too ... just because it would be lulz.)

What's this? *slightly confused*
And I nuuu, it's so hard to get up the motivation what with end of year assignments and whatever. ;.; I still owe Diddy a review for his BBQ one-shot, but that ... is painful to wade through. Fifteen pages of utter crack in what is supposed to be a 'challenge'.
Yami doesn't really strike me as the type to laugh much. =x Which is a shame, because laughter is fun.
And so is rambling?

Yeah, hard to have motivation to do stuff like that when one wants to write as well and there's a strong lack of time. >_< But maybe I shall make use of some of my time that way. =) (And then I can improve review-wise as well!)
I can't say she strikes me as one to laugh much either. =/ Is that a testement to the funniness of the joke then? XD But laughter is good fun. Probably why I enjoy trying to write my fic so much. And reading other people's comedies. =D
Ramble ramble ramble. =D

Indeed. Especially when one has, in the next two weeks, a newsletter to put together and a 4500 word assignment due for which one has only done sufficient research to know what one should research next. Because one is silly like that. At least it sounds as though one is in a better place than a certain lapras, however ...
It is good fun. X3 My family and friends have had to get used to me laughing out loud while reading. Although that doesn't stop them from commenting on it.
Ramble ramble ramble ramble. X3

She doesn't have the balls to review me; she never has, even when I was new to the forum and didn't have a psycho-bitch reputation. She goes for the worst stuff she can find because reviewing something she likes doesn't make her feel superior. *shrug* She's a pretty standard bully.

She reviewed one of my newer one-shots ("One Day" I think). The reviewers for that story are odd, actually, because Scrap (can't remember her current name) reviewed it too and I don't think she's been posting for a long, long time.
Iota is pretty friendly with Yami, though, and, as annoying as it is to us, Yami is/was the most active reviewer. I can think of several meticulous reviewers (you included bwahaha), but Yami's name circulates more around the forums.
'Tis annoying.

Scrap's called Kiyohime, I believe, and I think I saw that story ... was that the one about the mother's reflection on her's son's impending journey?
I have to keep up on Yami's friends. >.>; I tend to assume semi-decent writers are smart enough not to be taken in ... then again, Iota annoyed me with her rewrite of the anime in the way she randomly changed things just because she felt she knew better (like Ash's mother's name. Randomly changed because she liked 'Delilah' or whatever it was better than 'Delia'. wtf. Or, IIRC, Ash's not getting up late. And to think I was initially vaguely interested because it would be a more 'realistic' take on the anime ... nope, turns out it was more of an excuse to just change what she wanted.)
Alas, yes, the reason we we need to review more often. ._. (Also shank joo and back atcha. X3)

Omg! Haha, I was going to bitch about that too but I didn't really read enough to sufficiently bitch. I never understood why she had to change the name. I honestly thought she typoed and when someone pointed that out, she was too lazy to change it.

I didn't really read enough to sufficiently bitch either, tbh, although I did feel tempted to review to do so. XD I just read her author's notes, skimmed it, skimmed her reviews. I thought she'd typoed too until someone pointed it out--but IIRC her response was 'I think my name suits her better', rather than just outright forgetting. Although that reminds me that I once read a (non-pokemon) fic where the author couldn't find the first name for one of the characters, gave him her own, and when someone told her the name still chose not to change it even though she'd only written one chapter and it's not like it would've been difficult ... seriously, wtf. /tangent
