There is now a TVTropes page for Tales Of The Canterlot Deportation Agency · 3:20pm Sep 29th, 2014

And I'm not the one who put it up.

I'm still in preparations for the extensive rebuild (mostly sorting existing trope entries into newly-created story folders) on the main 'verse page. But I drop in on it from time to time. Check the visitor count, look for new edits, extensive sabotage... the usual. And during a recent peek, I found this:

"WanderingBrowser

The author is also responsible for ''FanFic/TalesOfTheCanterlotDeportationAgency'', but it is unclear if those are part of the same universe as the Triptych Continuum."

First reaction: ...huh?
Second: gratitude surge which took some time to fade into background level.
Third: ...no. No, they are not. (But pre-incursion backgrounds for characters are the same in both, so that is Lyra's backstory in the main 'verse.)
Fourth: ...seriously: huh?
Fifth: search all of FIMFic for WanderingBrowser. (Came up empty.)
Sixth: well, that link has to go somewhere...

Here's the page.

I'll be putting in some work of my own on that: my main contribution may wind up being a Characters subpage. (The main 'verse... arguably doesn't have enough OCs to really need one, but the CDA is built on originals and imports.) I'm also going to update those four stories here with an appropriate link and may sneak in a trope-based preview of the next CDA tale, along with revealing a couple of small things from the originals.

So, WanderingBrowser, whoever you are... stand up and be saluted.

Let's get that page a little traffic, shall we?

Two people. Two (or more) would be good.

(Current offsite referral count as of this blog post: zero.)

Someone did that of their own free will, without my asking, suggesting, or anything else. 'Stunned' is the weakest word.

Edit: I just finished editing the four CDA story descriptions to include notices of the main page and character sheet. Which means I also started the character sheet: so far, I've got partial entries up on that latter for Ben, Bree, and Melissa. (Here's a link for the Characters page.) Additionally, I've belatedly tagged this blog post and tossed a couple of extra tropes onto the main page. And that's going to be it for today -- I have a mailbox closing down soon, and I'm transferring most of my shopping accounts to the new one.

As of this edit, the main page, which started at zero offsite referral views, is up to twenty-eight visitors.
