So today I was at the airport and I wanted something to read on the plane, so I walked into a bookshop and picked up a couple of Pratchett books (couldn’t decide, so I just bought both). The cashier looks at my books and asks me, “Are you also a fan of Neil Gaiman?” XD

April 14, 2013 2:16 am at 2:16 am #1114457OneOfManyParticipantjmh: So I just started the custard book today–it wasn’t so bad as they gave a lot of background within the first few pages. I am up to the part where they are in the custard dimension and Ricky stabs the refrigerator. haha I like this book muchly. ^_^

I move to start a contest– the let’s see how many threads you can imbue with Discworldliness contest. ^_^
Score:
OneOfMany: 4 (here, here, here, here)
writersoul: 1 (here)
Tertiary points to those who help derail the thread after the initial Discworld reference.
(If anyone has made/spotted any such references that I have missed, feel free to correct the tallies.)

May 1, 2013 3:41 pm at 3:41 pm #1114464gavra_at_workParticipantand I cited her in the same thread.
After I did, and mine is a direct quote. I should get points for it.

May 1, 2013 4:23 pm at 4:23 pm #1114468gavra_at_workParticipantI was still first.
May 1, 2013 4:49 pm at 4:49 pm #1114469just my hapenceParticipantTrue, wasn’t debating that. You can have a sticker if you want, I’m the president so I can give them out…
May 1, 2013 4:59 pm at 4:59 pm #1114470gavra_at_workParticipantPlease?
May 1, 2013 5:53 pm at 5:53 pm #1114471just my hapenceParticipantConsider yourself duly stickered

May 6, 2013 12:04 pm at 12:04 pm #1114479notasheepMemberI haven’t found any threads that interest me to insert a Discworld reference yet – I am currently in some more serious threads at the moment so my contributions may take time
May 7, 2013 4:23 am at 4:23 am #1114480OneOfManyParticipantjmh: I finished the Custard book–loved it! Going to read some more over Shavuos. ^_^
notasheep: Eagerly awaiting your contributions. ^_^
May 7, 2013 9:54 am at 9:54 am #1114481just my hapenceParticipantOOM – Try some of the earlier ones too – the great thing about Tom Holt is that he’s so nuts his subject and tonal variety are huge. It might be worth giving ‘Only Human’ a skip though as it will probably make you a bit angry theologically.

Which raises a good question. If someone only continues someone else’s reference, should they still get points?
May 8, 2013 4:11 pm at 4:11 pm #1114485just my hapenceParticipantYes. Anyways, these are three separate references, albeit to the same book.
May 8, 2013 6:59 pm at 6:59 pm #1114486notasheepMemberthere is a very subtle Discworld reference in my post on why women can’t be rabbis check out the thread. Points if you get it…

For the Whovians out there Gaiman’s episode is coming up this motzei shabbos (in UK, not sure when it airs in US).

I already addressed this in the contest rules:
