Hey there all. This is just to let you all know that I'm going to be on a slight hiatus for the month. With Tomb Raider & Fallout 4 releasing tongiht at 12, and Sword Art coming out next week, I'll be pretty consumed with video games, not to mention that Magik releases at the end of this month in Marvel Heroes as well. I'll still reply to messages and maybe post things if I get the chance or if I really want to, but I just wanted to give everyone a heads up. :)
What's on your mind?

Back again, gain, gain,
Shady's back, back, back,
Tell a friend, end, end.
Hello, you cheeky edgemasters, like always, I've been away, cut in my rush at a peak of my motivation, and today, I would like to explain. Because I've just eaten 31 notifications in the face, none from you guys (since you are the only ones who generally know I'm not dead when that happens, which I thank you for) and I would like to come back to the best of my ability.
I've moved my computer in another room, a few days ago, and since I live in Nice, as always I need to show my patriotism, and there, rain ain't kidding for shit, a thunderstorm kind of deprived my house of electricity, and when I managed to turn the power back, my Internet, telephone, TV, et cætera were kind of dead. So I had to do the ol' switcheroo, and now here I am. I've been thinking a lot, and I hope I can contribute more than I generally do, because I'm not going to like it if I don't until the next thunderstorm.
So, have a nice day, all of you, and see you on the notepad (rad name,)
Have a nice day,
Nerpondi.

The link is to a YouTube video detailing the two shows called "Hellfire" which will be about the Hellfire Club and premiere on Fox (I'm a little more excited for this one than the second.) & "Legion" which will be about Charles Xavier's son (David Haller), this show will premiere on FX and is being directed or produced (Can't remember which one.) by the creater/director of Fargo. Brian Singer is also one of the prodecer's, so I'm hopeful the shows will come out fine. Hellfire will also be set in the 60s', and will follow some detective trying to stop a power hungry woman (I swear to Athena if it's not Selene, someone dies.) What concerns me is that these characters, at least in most respects, aren't exactrly the most important, which may mean they won't do so well based off of popularity, but I'm keeping a positive mind. Like I said, I'm a bit more excited for Hellfire, but I don't see Legion doing too bad either. Here's hoping. :3
Hey there all! So I realize I haven't been posting as much here, but that's about to change. I've come up with a new project idea I'm going to call "Age Of Phoenix" which will be a new story with 3 main characters. One character will represent myself, and the other two will be two of my closest friends on wiki. This will be what I will mainly work on for a bit on here and it will indeed be apart of Earth-88. I hope you guys enjoy it, because I have big plans. ^_^

So, we have our Elektra for Daredevil, and I couldn't be happier with their choice. This girl has the look, and the acting skill, now the question is, can she pull of someone as beautiful and deadly as Elektra? ;)
I'm excited. :3

It comes out the 14th of this month! :D YAY!!!! <3
So, I just saw a video saying that apparently, because of the Suicide Squad movie, Harley Quinn won't be in Arrow and was actually planned to be a big character in Arrow before this happened, but apparently, the devs asked them to shut this down. I find that to be the stupidest thing I've ever heard and am now not looking forward to the movie as much as I previously was. Unless they plan on having a Green Arrow in the movie, what the hell do they car eif Harley is in his show? It's more than likely not even the same universe. Sorry if this is a rant all, it just really bothered me, and I wanted to see what more than one person thought about it.
I was searching on Google the new Secret Wars event and I found an article on Bleeding Cool talking about what will happen to the X-Men after this event.

Warning: This article contains spoilers, so read on your own risk.
After you read it, feel free to talk about what you think of it.
Hello, everyone. I´m David. I´m back and back to stay. Nice to see you all again. In spite of recent events, I am sad to announce that I have asked for Comic Crossroads to be shut down and closed. I am sorry. Until next time.
Just joking. Now for the real things, as I´ve said I´m back and I´ve already got a few projects. You might have noticed we have some new looking badges, I changed them a bit to incorporate some more DC into the wiki. You may also see some new things on the main page, in chat or some new weekly and monthly features. I´ll reinstate the Fictional Critic for as long as I can, especially now that I will finally reveal who F is the next Tuesday. It will be monthly now, as I´ve lack the time to make it a weekly thing. I´m sure French and I can arrange for a significant interval between the both of the features so they can each shine on their way. I´ll also do my best to keep working on categories, images, maintain the order and especially produce a better organization on the wiki with some pages.
To attract new users, I´ve also made a spotlight request so let´s hope Merrystar, the member of Staff will approve it. I´m full of ideas for the wiki and for fanfiction.
The main theme here however is the Disambiguation Pages. Our wiki is really growing, it has now over 5500 pages. The idea originally came from French, who saw the wonders this method was creating on other fanfiction wikis. Thus, the admins decided to implement the Marvel Database´s preferred method, the Disambiguation Pages. We made this decision quite a long ago but now we are really going to make it. I think everyone knows what they are. They will be a great way to increase awarness of pages and organize everything better, plus will increase our page count, that´s always good, right? We do need to create hundreds of pages like these, so any help is appreciated. I, myself will dedicate 80% of my time to it and I´m sure along with all of you and Ronin, French, Caesar and Arty, we can do it.
Thanks for your time, everyone. And keep up the good work :) The sky is the limit.
I don't know if any of you have heard, but over at Newsrama.com, there's news that the Marvel universe is coming to an end, as the Secret Wars rises up! I didn't think this kind of thing would actually happen. What the heck could this possibily mean for our favorite heroes and villains?
Come and check it out:

Hello everyone, FrenchTouch here, and today, the Featured Article Nominating and Voting for April 2016 has started!
The first three nominees are:
- Iosepp (Earth-619) for the Featured Character
- Nebula Universe for the Featured Reality
- Spawn/Ghost Rider (BlueHunterTV) for the Featured Fanfiction
Now, we're counting on you to add to this count and/or vote for your favorite of the month!
Rendez-vous here and there, and see you next month, for another announcement.
Best Regards.
Hey everybody, FrenchTouch here.
Lately, I've been noticing that the Category:Male Characters has been rapidly coming back. So, I'd like to officially tell everyone that this category is a double category, and that it should not be anywhere on the wiki. I'm already sorting out more than a hundred pages wearing that category, and I've renamed 4 categories.
For short, please do not put this category anymore.
Now, may you all have a nice day, and good luck,
Regards,
FrenchTouch (talk).
For any further question regarding this subject, post it below.
First of all, I hope you´re all having a nice day. Yesterday I was editing but a personal problem arrived and I had to be absent yesterday night and today most of the day only coming to the wiki 3 hours ago. The next Fictional Critic 08 will be published tomorrow morning and sorry for everything but it´s good everything is solved now. But I´m going to be on vacation in a future time which is still not defined, a vacation which will last a week and will make me inactive so during that period, if you wish to message me about it, you better contact another admin and I won´t be availble for anything, no web where I´m going. But when that time comes, it will fly. Thank you for your time.
So we have arrived at the unknown, the 4000 Pages are here. It is actually quite good that in little over a year, Crossroads has already achieved the 4000 pages and this marks a new step in the wiki. This is the product of all our users, everyone who has ever edited on an article and we thank you for that. Now that we have arrived on the 4000, we will continue to the 5000, 6000 and then 10000. This marks new changes, more success and above all, a greater Comic Crossroads. Thank you for your time and for edits
Well after Miss Elektra´s quick demise, or you might want to call him Tekken, Deadpool the Merc, Super Sintex, Treevax, Bianca Butcher, GamingFeuds and many many more but he did gave an idea. This is a sort of inquest to our community. What would you think of the introduction of roleplaying in Comicn Crossroads as many other fanfiction wikis seem to do so? Comment above so what we can learn your opinion or even make suggestions such as tournaments, your imagination is the limit.
Attention: This is not a forum for the instituition of roleplaying, it is simply a forum to see what the users think of the introduction of roleplaying so that it might be considered by the admins of Comic Crossroads in the future if the results are indeed positive. If the results are positive however this will be taken to the admin council to decide if roleplaying does enter or if it stays out of CR.
As many told me to do, and as many would be pleased, I'm offering to become the Comic Crossroads "official" designer, in order to give this place my work, which has been acclaimed in the entire world.
United States, France, United Kingdom, Brazil, Spain, and plenty others can affirm this.
But, to do so, I'll need your advice, but before, here are some things I'd like to show you:
Grade
Yes, I actually said that. I think that there could be a grade for designers, in order to make the stuff clear. But you know it doesn't exist right ?
But I've never said we couldn't make it by ourselves. You might don't know how to do so, but hey, looks like I'm also a code guru, so here is the code to give me this grade of designer, which includes the UserTags, so you can make your own tags:
/* UserTags */ window.UserTagsJS = { modules: {}, tags: { designer: { u:'DESIGNER', m:'DESIGNER', f:'DESIGNER' } }; UserTagsJS.modules.autoconfirmed = true; UserTagsJS.modules.mwGroups = ['bureaucrat', 'sysop', 'bannedfromchat', 'rollback', 'chatmoderator', 'bot', 'blocked']; UserTagsJS.modules.custom = { 'FrenchTouch': ['designer'] };
See this ? Simple as hell, heh ? Oh, and this code has to be put in MediaWiki:Common.js.
But to be sure, I need to know if this grade would be cool.
Designers ?!
If you consider me worthy to design for this wiki, I'll found a Designing League called the ADC, a.k.a Active Designing Community, which will be a group of persons who like to design (and who are good at it), mainly you who will design with me for the wiki, first, and then on the entire Wikia Community, which means coolness overload.
To identify ourselves, we wouldn't need a designer grade, since, well, not every wiki will give us that rank, but with a navbox regrouping the members. But heh, this wiki doesn't have navboxes. So, again, a code for MediaWiki:Common.js to make them work, because the Common.js is fraggin' empty:

} } // if more Navigation Bars found than Default: hide all if (NavigationBarShowDefault < indexNavigationBar) { for( var i=1; i<=indexNavigationBar; i++ ) { toggleNavigationBar(i); } } } addOnloadHook( createNavigationBarToggleButton );
Yeah, that's a long code, but trust me, there's far worse. But again, I need ot be sure of this:
Now, it's your turn !
Yeah, I said everything necessary, so, now, what do you think of it ?
Good, bad, what are the good and bad points of the stuff, is it helpful, useful, I can't know this without you.
So, waiting for your answer, I'm wishing you have a great day, and see ya later. File:Au revoir.ogg
Hello, users of Comic Crossroads. David, here with some important announcements. So here is the entire list:
- Featured Article Nominating and Voting: The truth is for Comic Crossroads things have been going great, the admin council is all active again as Photon is back and now we have Caesar and activity is great plus we passed the 3800 pages target. But what has not been so sucessful is the Featured Article Nominating and Voting. It has had many pages competing but only 3 users voting in the last month and we take our time to update the main page with the winner. As to attract more users and show more of crossroads´s best pages, we are finally carring out an idea. This idea was first given by former admin, Last Scribe of Krypton but it was rejected that at point. Months later in April I proposed it again and it was accepted. So from now on there will be three featured pages:
- Feauted Character (Villain, Neutral or Hero)
- Featured Reality
- Featured TV Series/Fanfiction Series/Movies
Also has to increase the number of voters, 10 days before the end of the voting, I shall message every user on the wiki who has been active or edited that month. They shall receive a message with a template on it, asking them to vote and participate in the voting. This will allow us more votes. If you are interested, good, if not not, ok. The template will start being developed tomorrow and this will start this month. Tomorrow the voting page will be operable for use by all users and this method starts from now on.
New Projects: Comic Crossroads is carrying an exclusive array of projects including the Fictional Critic, the Weekly Frenchy Talk, the Weakest Link and more and now an old project from the past will be returning, The Contest of Champions, will return but under new management. I remember from my days as the master of the contest that Shiplord13 was my biggest suporter and so I have decided that if he would like to take it, I would give him my work with pleasure as he is a good and dedicated person. So from now on, the contest belongs to him and to start very quickly. For all the new users that are interested in participating such as those that were not here when the contest started, will be allowed to participate.
Movies: The fact is we have been having lots of movies and series lately and that has really contributed to our balance of pages. As I said we still need more villains but you are all doing a impressive work here. But, I would advise to read this, http://comiccrossroads.wikia.com/wiki/Thread:31360, because not only did Artemis and I like this idea might well become official.
New Partnership: The end this list of important announcements. Comic Crossroads is starting a new partnership with New Marvel Wiki, you might know some users from there, your current admin Artemis Thorson and our former admin, the charming Gwen Stacy Parker. The truth is that wiki is probably one of the oldest fanfifction wikis around and it has been abandoned but it was really a great place so Comic Crossroads will help to try to revive it. We will exchange pages, inform users of each others wikis and many other things. If there´s one thing I learned is that wikis should be ran like a bussiness and in a bussiness you have to seek powerful partners, and a good deal that is profitable for them and yourself. This not only will help revive that wiki but will also grant us new pages and possibly new users. Thank you for your time. Have a nice day.
Hello, users of Comic Crossroads. After the sad incident of Deadpool´s return as Tekken, it is finally time to promote our new admin, Lord Caesar. The truth is that he is a very loyal contributor, editing here evey day and he is also one of the oldest and most well behaved users and it is time he gained his reward. And so, I´d like you to now not only consider him the normal Caesar but the new admin of Comic Crossroads. Our only active bureaucrat, Artemis will promote him in a matter of days or hours. Now that 1 spot in the Admin Council is taken, this wiki can continue to grow. Congratulations to Caesar.
I would also like to propose yet another promotion. This being the promotion of FrenchTouch to chat moderator. He is not only of the most loyal persons I know and trust but also he is one of the main users on chat and I believe with this power he could do much more good than what he already does. He has currently passed the 1000 edits mark and not only is he about to make a year as a user of Comic Crossroads. If he had those powers the day that Tekken was revealed everything would have changed. I believe this promotion will be positive for him and for the wiki as well. Leave your commonets above or even propose other promotions that the administrators of Comic Crossroads might take into consideration.
First, let me just say we are very close to achieving the 4000 page target. But that is not much important now. The truth is that most of the 3717 pages we currently have are among them heroes, fanfiction issue and maybe realities, not many villains or movies. So I have to thank Artemis Thorson, Red Average, Bluehunter and Draft227 for creating new films that are now on Comic Crossroads. Now we only need more villains. Keep working hard everyone and we will be in 4000 pages in a second. Thank you for your time.
Do I feel dumb ? HELL YEAH.
I told you I would get the WFT for Sunday, but... someone thought it would be intelligent to crush an electric cable, cutting off my Internet, phone and pretty much everything. Since Saturday, I couldn't do anything, and I'm sorry for this. So, the next Weekly Frenchy Talk will come out Next Saturday, at 08:00 PM (look at the video in the Community Corner for the laugh), and I promise you that whenever it'll come out, I'll put everything I can on it ;)
