I really want these rules to be respected, call it a pet peeves if you must. And I dont think you all can find that article burried under everything, so I copy pasted the article here.
Now that the rules have re-surfaced, I'll be giving warnings. There is one fanfic that was posted in article form [i]before[i] the rules came out, called "Immortal Links", its an exception, there are no others. Yuo must apply to these rules.
CREDIT CAN IN NO CIRCUMSTANCE GO TO ME, AMPHITRITE WROTE THE ARTICLE, FROM NOW ON THE WORDS ARE HERS
We seem to have tons of Fan Fic. on the way, just one more way we are growing as a community. But, as a community, there are things we have to do to keep our spot clean. So, there has to be some rules for our latest feature. Please, if you are writing a fan fic., abide by these rules!
1. Chapter stories should go in the forum. Short stories (one chapter stories/one shots) go in the articles. It is annoying having to search out articles to find the specific chapter you are looking for. By keeping chapter stories in a specific thread it is less confusing, less troubling, and a whole lot easier for people to navigate and find the chapters they are looking for.
2. Please use proper grammar/spelling. Nothing can bring you out of a story more than trying to understand what the author is saying. If you would like someone to review your piece for you to make sure it is virtually mistake free, or you just want someone to let you know if it sounds good, send me a PM.
3.NO LEMONS! No one wants to read a story about nothing but doing the dirty, so please save your lemons for another site. If Lemons are posted they will be reported. You have been warned.
4. Do not abandon your stories. I look at stories like children, abandoning them is wrong, and it is annoying to get into a story and never get to finish it because someone got lazy or bored. If you don't plan on finishing your story, then don't publish it.
5. Please put a rating on your story. We never know who is reading our stories. We wouldn't want a little kid reading something we wouldn't want Grandma to see, would we? Please use the rating system below:
YC- suitable for kids age 5 and up (No violence, bad language, or adult themes.)
C-suitable for age 10 and up (Mild violence, no bad language and no adult themes.)
YA-suitable for age 13 and up (May contain violence, and some bad language)
T-suitable for 15 and up (May contain violence, bad language, and some adult themes)
M-suitable for 17 and up (May contain violence, bad language, and adult themes)
6.Please use an informational form. Although creativity cannot be contained and is sometimes sloppy, please use a proper form for the informational part of your story (the part that lets everyone know what your story is about and all that jazz.) Please use the form given below. (This does not pertain to short stories, please see the form below the first one.)
Title: [Your Title Here]
Rating: [Rate your fan fic. here]
Type: [Please put what genre you think your story falls into, you can use multiple genres.]
Characters: [Please put the central characters here. If one of them is of your own creation put OC]
Synopsis: [Put a brief description of your story here, you don't have to give away the ending, but let people know what they are getting into]
Disclaimer: [So we don't get in trouble here, please give R.R. (or whoever deserves it) credit]
A/N: [Put your author's notes here. They can pertain to the story or they can be dedications]
FOR SHORT STORIES (one shots)
Rating: [Please rate your story here]
Disclaimer: [Give credit where credit is due.]
A/N: [Put your Author's notes here.]
7. No bullying. This really pertains to people who comment on your story. If you comment on a story, please be nice, and if you insist on critisism make it constructive. If you don't have anything good to say, don't say it at all! Violators will be reported!
8. Let us know when you publish a story or a chapter! Go to the wall and post a brief message to get the news out that your story is up! Don't be obnoxious about it though, don't spam or anything, one message will do it.
9. HAVE FUN! Your story is just that, yours. The whole point of fan fic (in my opinion) is to have fun and get all those crazy thoughts out of your head. Don't let anyone push you around. You do not have to accept requests, you do not have a deadline for publishing, and there are certainly no limitations (other than the ones above) on your story. If someone is trying to tell you anything different, report them or let me know.
Ratings
Although nothing makes an author feel greater than having someone tell them what they like about a story, they still want to know how well the story was recieved by everybody. That's where ratings come in. You know how to rate an article, but when you post a chapter fic in the forum, there is no way to rate it. I've devised a system to let the authors of chapter fics know just how much you liked a piece. So, you know those emotes at the bottom of the reply form at the bottom of the page? Well, they are nifty little things. So my idea is that depending on how well you like a chapter in a fan fic you choose an emote that is equated with numbers on a rating scale (1-10.) The Scale is as follows.
1-Angry (the angry face)This is the worst rating
2-Sad (Has a frown...not the crying face)
3-Hmmmm (has a half frown)
4-meh (no smile, but no frown...straight line)
5-monkey (It's a monkey...)
6-smile (The regular smiley face)
7-big smile (The face with the big ear to ear grin)
8-cool (The face with the sun glasses)
9-kiss (The face with the puckered up lips)
10-heart (Self explainitory) This is the best rating
If you want to make an author feel especially happy, give them a prop. Use the comment prop, and let the author know what you like!
These rules are here to make our reading adventures fun, safe, and easy. I'm not trying to be mean, so please don't hurt me. If you have any complaints or you think I missed something send me a PM or post it in the comments. Happy fic'ing. Go. Read. Enjoy.
You must apply on these rules or I will personally callback Mr D (because I have more power then Zeus, heck tshyah! ((I wish)) ) and this will be your new permenant form.
So with a little tweak of Amph's words; go. Write. Enjoy.
So in the YouTube video where rick reads part of chapter 2, Reyna mentions that she is the praetor of legion 12. Now in TLH Jason mentions that he is the praetor of the first legion. I believe that the legions are the same as the seperate cabins at Greek camp, therefore meaning the legions are seperated by parent, and the praetors are like the counselors. As Zeus/Jupiter is cabin one at camp half blood, he might be legion 1 at camp Jupiter. Therefore as dionysus /Bacchus is the twelfth Olympian/cabin I am led to believe that her parent is Bacchus, therefore explaining the purple robe, and maybe her father even mentioned Percy to her and said he'd be on his way to camp which is how she knew his name. Thoughts?

Well where do I begin.It was a great book with lots of twist and turns and unexpected things.I went through about ten dollars worth of tissues during the whole book.And that ending made me want to jump off a cliff and die.I'm pretty sure most of you felt the same way.My otp fell into tarturus like percabeth. Still crying over that by the way.Uncle Rick has really gone over board on those cliff hangers and now I really really need to read the next book.But we all have to wait until next fall 2013.Well good luck with your patience and what not. See you next book. Peace in all that demigodeshness.
