Ms. Quartermaine

MinervaFan, lovely letter! Lainey, I'll go to SOC tonight. First, I want to share these OH.MY.GOD.YOU.WILL.HATE.THEM.BUT.WE.CALLED.IT spoilers. _ _ _ _ _ How the hell does THAT happen? Seriously. Tell me. The girl doesn't even have a GED, doesn't have an OUNCE of experience, and she's going to outsmart the business woman who's holding the college degree, who's been working in the family business (be it as a board member or CEO) for HOW LONG? You know, it's not even like I didn't expect it, 'cause I did. But still…UGH. *puts on smile* Can I just say it's OOC? That never, ever, ever would Sam outsmart the Tracy Quartermaine. Can I just call it more Sam propping? Lord knows she needs it. I'm sorry. I'm just imagining the conversation my sister and I are going to have after this airs. Oh, it's not going to be pretty.

*hands on hips* You talked about TRAX? Without ME? LOL. So...Slowest. Day. Ever. I mean, in the thread. It's SCARY. Breakroom? It's a little after 8:30 central. http://pub13.bravenet.com/chat/show.php/1049349012

It's almost 8:30 central/9:30 eastern. I'm in the breakroom for a bit: http://pub13.bravenet.com/chat/show.php/1049349012

And she's back, and she is not Tracy, but rather Ms. Q, who for some odd reason is referring to herself in the 3rd person. *waves* I bring ABC.com spoilers... _ _ _ _ _ After Tracy laughs in Sam's face when she asks about a job at ELQ, Edward takes Sam aside and promises her that if she has Jason's baby, he'll make it his sole heir. _ _ _ _ _ END OF SPOILER Did we decide on a definite time for the breakroom tonight? Regency posted 8:00, 8:30 central. I'll be around (after all, I've been computer deprived much of the day ). Anyone else going to be there?

Regarding the newspaper, PC Herald sounds right. I was going to guess that, until I remembered the Q's during the condom fiasco. But Regency, I'd go with that (the Herald response). And can you tell us what your fic is about? *smiles prettily* MinervaFan, I hope the apartment is a good one!!! Per recaps: Monica sort of referred to Tracy as Lulu's guardian. She saw Dillon, Lulu, and Spinelli hanging out at Kelly's and wanted to know if Tracy knew that she was hanging out with "him" (Spinelli). And MAC was on today. Gosh. Mac can get screentime, but not our girl? This is sad guys. Really sad. SPOILERS _ _ _ _ _ Per Got Info (week of January 15th) Evil!Tracy has some questions about Sweet!Innocent! Sam's past. Sam dodges the questions and proceeds to quit ELQ, proving to viewers everywhere that she still can't hold a job. Meanwhile, Ms. Q wonders if Sam leaving ELQ proves another thing: Were the rumors of Ned's return just, well...rumors? The Quartermaines, as a family, make their montly appearance. This time, it's Dillon calling the meeting, or at least he's the one with the announcement: He's ditching the sweaters and glasses and returning to film school. Pre-Pod!Dillon fans rejoice. Monica continues to get bits of screentime in this "Who Killed Rick Webber" SL, as she has a warning for Lulu and Dillon. Poor Leslie Charleson. Gains air time, but loses a co-star in the process. Per WUBS (February Sweeps) GH goes LIVE. For real. Or so is the plan. SoapZone has their doubts. Too much $$$. Too much room for error (which means GH has a less chance of winning the Emmy). What do you all think?

Just saying hello, among other things. Regency, I do remember the Q's reading the NY Daily News. SPOILERISH _ _ _ _ _ At JE Online, Ed's Meds posted that Sam makes an enemy of Tracy. (It's in ABC SID). However, per other spoilers, Sam quits her job at ELQ, so whatever happens will be short lived. It's probably for the better though, because you know in a battle between Sam and Tracy, Tracy would lose with these writers...Even if it makes no sense. So, think Tracy will be ON today?

No Tracy, I presume? Maybe tomorrow. TracyLuv, thanks for sharing! Yay Tracy and Luke! ILoveTracyQ, people don't need a reason to hate Dillon. After all, he is Tracy's son. <--This smiley seemed appropriate. I'm not sure what it's supposed to be though. Maybe a Ninja? LOL. *sings* I got more spoilers, but they're basically more of the same-old, same-old...except for one nice surprise! _ _ _ _ _ First of all, as it turns out, Got Info posted the Edward praises Sam at Tracy's expense; Tracy begins to investigate Sam's past. So, there's our confirmation. Details: Tracy hires a private investigator to dig up dirt on Sam, and on January 12th, Tracy gets the ammunition she can use against her. I KNEW it. No big SL. She just wants her out of ELQ. Second of all (hint, this is the "nice surprise"), there are rumors that NED is making a comeback to GH. If the spoilers are accurate, Ned is called into ELQ to keep the peace between Edward/Tracy and Tracy/Sam. He will also be spending time with Alexis. nex, are you reading? NEXIS!!! And finally, there are some strange rumors that Skye is re-opening Deception, and that Tracy sabatoges her photoshoot.

And for my final post of the day...LOL. Neat card, Regency. MinervaFan, I emailed you about the other stories. I'm perfectly fine with dumping them both and just using a couple of the Missing Scenes. ILoveTracyQ, screentime or not, PleaseDon'tMakeHerSam'sMother. Fortunately, I don't think they're going there. If the spoiler is true, Tracy's probably just digging into Sam's past, so she can find some dirt on her and then force her out of ELQ. I doubt it's some BIG thing. At least Tracy will be ON! BTW, SZ Scoops and Spoilers have the first of the Edward/Tracy/Sam spoilers airing THIS WEEK! knh, I agree that Sam in the beginning was fine. Sason ruined her. And I am outta here. Night everyone!

God. IT. NEVER. WORKS. I can't do it, unless I am completely devoid of internet access. So, here I am. Again. No harm in 1 or 2 posts a day, right? Besides, it's not a good idea to completely cut myself off from something I enjoy. That said, I might have to skip the breakroom for the next week or so. We'll see. nex! I am SO glad that everything is all right. I worry too much, and when I saw you hadn't been around much, I wondered what happened. Hope you had a good time! MinervaFan, did you get the updated version of Dance With Me? I also sent you the first chat of the New Year, but I think that's less important than the stuff for the zine. Regency, no worries. You had a ton of input from the previous chat. POSSIBLE SPOILERS (some variations of what we've heard before) _ _ _ _ _ Edward praises Sam at Tracy's expense. GAH! EDWARD! What the hell does Sam do that requires praise? And at Tracy's expense? Tracy begins to investigate Sam's past. Please let this mean Sam is not Alexis's daughter. Please let this mean Sam is not Alexis's daughter. Not sure what this had to deal with our girl though 'cause I doubt GH would make her Sam's mother. Plus, Jason and Sam would be related then... Dillon refuses to help Tracy. And this is why she needs to disown him. With Jax unavailable, Alexis goes to Ned for help. SQUEE! Please be true! Please be true!

*waves to tracyluver* We miss ya! We had a small group in the breakroom tonight. The "final" list of what we've decided is posted at JE Online. Dance With Me (from the Missing Scenes) has been revisited. Click here. Thanks Deb! Edit: *waves to Ms. Walsh* Also, kind of OT, but I need to step AWAY from the boards for a bit. I'm here (and at other sites) a lot. And I love it, I do, but I spend too much time online. I'll still be in touch via email, but if I disappear from here, SOC, and JE Online, don't worry. SPUMORS FROM SOAPDISH _ _ _ _ _ Edward learns of Jason and Sam's desire and shares his plan with Tracy. Tracy is appalled and takes action to prevent it. Sam finds out about the defective condoms the Q's manufactured while working for Edward and realizes that's the bubble that burst between Liz and Jason.

*runs into thread, out of breath* I'm here. I'm here! No more partying at SOC for me, LOL. ILoveTracyQ, you have email. TracyLuv, you have email. MinervaFan, you have email. Everyone Else, you are not cool enough to have email. Kidding. Another reminder, if you can attend... You're Invited!!! A Very Special and Very Important Chat When: TONIGHT! 7pm central. 8pm eastern. Where: The Tracy Quartermaine Breakroom Why: To discuss gift ideas for Jane Elliot's 60th Birthday. RSVP: Regrets Only! Hope you can come!!!!

Aww, Deb, I loved it. Think we'll ever get a LuNacy kiss on New Year's on GH? Maybe next year... knh, happy new year to you too! Hey, look what I found (that I made last year)... Behold the prettiness (well, I think it's pretty, LOL)... Also, I've been messing around with AdobePhotoDeluxe and PhotoShop and came up with these beige icons... AND It might just be me (and well, it is kind of late), but I like it, LOL, even though they look so sad. Any ideas for text if I or anyone else decides to use it? And Deb, once again, this might just be because it's late, and I know you've done a ton of proofreading on Second Chances (and you used up a whole bunch of ink, which I can send you a couple dollars for), but I still don't know how I feel about dragging Tracy into the mob and letting someone from the show see that. I know I agreed. And now I'm sort of taking it back. And yes, I'm being stupid about this. Oy. Everyone else can feel free to weigh in. Plus, I sort of like the Missing Scene with Dillon/Tracy (about the abortion) better. But like you said, we all hate going back and reading older stuff 'cause it's like, "Whoa. That it so bad." Anyway, I'm just rambling. Just figured I'd get that out in the open now 'cause I'm weird and didn't want to lose sleep over something so little. Finally, WHERE IS nex? I'm kind of worried. She popped in after Christmas and then disappeared. That's not like her. nex, if you're reading, come in and say hello.

Just stopping in... To those in the breakroom last night: Do we have a definite on the gift for Jane Elliot yet? MinervaFan, thanks for the video feedback! I loved your video too and the effects! And I am in love with the song (that has been playing in the background non-stop for about an hour). Oh, and I liked the use of audio at the beginning. Awesome letter too. I want to write like that, LOL. Have you thought about sending it to SOD and SOW too? Kind of OT -- Ew. Ew. Ew. I've been researching for Oh, Baby, and seriously, if the websites are going to come with pictures (real life pictures, not diagrams), I need a warning next time. Happy New Year (again) Everyone! *waves to TracyLuv* Edit: OMG. Regency. Your avatar. LOL! I love it!

First, I'm going to play catch-up (again)... Amello! Welcome back to the TQ Love! TracyLuv, thanks for the video feedback. I knew some people missed the Haunted Star/face touching from the "She's A Lady" video, so I made sure to include it in this one. As far as special effects go, I didn't have to do much to add the colors, LOL. It's pre-set. I just had to click "Add effect." LOL. BTW, I haven't told you this yet, but I like your avatar. I saw that you were using it at SOC. I'm waiting for someone to ask, "WHO is that?" LOL. Lady Ashton, glad you liked the video and the fanfic! Speaking of fanfic, MinervaFan, I LOVED your suggestions and responded to your email. Anyone hear from nex lately? Since she came back, she hasn't been around much. Reminder: Jane Elliot's birthday is rapidly approaching. MinervaFan is putting together some of our fic, which I'm almost sure will be included in the package that Tracey of Jane Elliot Online is putting together. We are also sending flowers. The DEADLINE for getting anything to Tracey (this includes monetary donations for the flowers, separate gifts for JE, personal cards, etc) is JANUARY 12th. Details here. Edit: I've underlined something I thought was important. January 12th is the day we need to get the stuff to Tracey, which means (and yes, I'm stating the obvious), that we have to send it to her before then. I'm thinking by January 6th, maybe 8th (the 7th is a Sunday). What do you all think?

Sorry for the double post, but for those who want to join, I'm back in here: http://pub13.bravenet.com/chat/show.php/1049349012

*hops into breakroom* Techno! Gah. I knew that. That's why the song was so err...weird sounding to me at first. It also explains the "head-achey" feeling I got after listening to it after a few times. Sorry guys! I'm not a fan of techno either, but like knh, I still didn't hate the song, and I thought it worked well for this LuNacy video.

*pretends I didn't see Regency's post* knh, thanks for the feedback! Sorry I left you hanging in Oh, Baby. And I wish I could help you with the Ipod, but I don't have one and don't really know how it works. As with last weekend, I'll be around, but I'm just going to say HAPPY NEW YEAR right now... HAPPY NEW YEAR!*~*<>*~*<>~*~*<>*~*-:¦:-•:*'""*:•.-:¦:-<*>-:¦:-•:*'""*:•.-:¦:-*~*<>*~*<>~*~*<>*~* May this upcoming year be better than last! (in real life and in GH Land...) *~*<>*~*<>~*~*<>*~*-:¦:-•:*'""*:•.-:¦:-<*>-:¦:-•:*'""*:•.-:¦:-*~*<>*~*<>~*~*<>*~* Stay safe, everyone! It wasn't my intention to finish this in time for a New Year's Gift, but that's how it worked out, LOL. Anyway... NEW VIDEO Miracle: MegaUpload Miracle: SendSpace Some comments: I first heard the song in a bowling alley and was like, "WTH is this?" FYI, it's not a bad song. Just VERY energetic and fast moving. I limited the amount of "flashes" in the video to avoid headaches, LOL. There is still flashing, some flickering, and a whole lot of LuNacy clips (some that I've never used in my vids before!!!) Also, it's kind of AR, since Tracy wasn't "alone" after Luke cheated on her with Holly (meaning, LuNacy still remained together). Anyway...Only 1 Luke/Holly clip. The rest is LuNacy, and there's a happy ending. Video is from Tracy's perspective (like what she might be thinking as opposed to doing). Any feedback would be appreciated, but I won't beg this time, LOL. GOOD NEWS We know Tristan Rogers mentioned something about the consultants in one of the magazines, but it was unclear as whether they were there or not. Anyway, per All Hail the King (formerly All Hail the Queen, who's got a good track record, spilled the Dillon/defective ELQ spoiler, among other things), Jack Smith and his assistants are HERE!!! FANFICTION For the last year (I didn't know until last night, LOL), Ryan Chandler (from this site) has been writing a GH Cast Fanfic. Quartermaines are prominent, as they should be. (Hey, Guza, take notes.) Anyway, Lainey especially, I think, will like what happens October-ish. Fic starts here. Edit: Gah. I am such a dork. My post is much too organized, LOL. Edit #2: I replaced the video links that were here earlier. Content of the vid is the same, but I forgot to credit GQ Daily and had to fix that.

Just saying hello and playing catch-up... knh, if I told you the answer, it wouldn't be any fun, LOL. MinervaFan, wow. 40KB is less than my avatar on this site. I could try again, but it would be a teeny-tiny baby icon. As for TQ today? I doubt it. TracyLuv, you crack me up, LOL. coolkid, good to see you posting again even if you do like Sam. [whispers] If you've had a chance to watch my latest 2 videos ("All I Want For Christmas Is You" and "Who Says You Can't Go Home") and haven't left feedback, please feel free to do so. [/whispers]

MinervaFan, how's this? It's 100x75. I wanted to keep it proportional, and I couldn't do that with 100x100. Lainey, all right. I like your version of what's going to happen better than mine, so I'll take your word. More on Wardrobe: Nah, I don't think it'll be here black/white "Almost Kiss-I miss Luke-Xmas" outfit. And that's not as overused as some of the other ones. Mainly this (which I made a while back)... 7 times...Plus, the time I forgot to include (it was a Georgie/Dillon/Tracy scene in Kelly's, in my For Good video). So that makes 8. Anyway, I. Am. So. Totally. Not. Obsessed. With. Tracy's. Wardrobe. Nope. Nope. Nope. knh, I think you can 'cause someone here did so before when she uploaded three episodes of THE CITY for us. I don't know how though. ~In honor of the upcoming Sam/Tracy scenes~ Tracy : Aren't you petite? No bigger than a china doll and about as intimidating as well. Sam: Yeah? Well, my fist isn't made of china. Is your face? Tracy : And belligerent, too. Do you scratch and spit? Tracy: …I couldn't decipher your handwriting. It leaves a little something to be desired. However, I did get the feeling that you must be a devotee of romance novels. It's the only explanation I could come up with for the flowery sentiment. Sam (to Jax): …I left the cards and she stole them. Tracy: I prefer to think of it as safekeeping. Sam: And she read my letter. Tracy: Oh, let me summarize. She's sorry she lied and killed your father. She thinks you're amazing in and out of bed and she's never going to forget you. But I don't believe it, do you? I didn't think so. Bye-bye. Jax: To the power of seduction. Tracy: And to the tacky little cow who didn't hold out for dinner…I have to admit, I'm impressed. Jax: Thank you. Tracy: You have Sam exactly where you want her and I bet she'd jump through hoops to keep you. Jax: Well, that could get very interesting. Tracy: Especially when she trips and falls. (Jax/Sam on a desk…Use your imagination) Jax: Did the door lock behind you? Tracy: Unfortunately, for the rest of us, that would be a no. I am impressed with your proficiency. Do you watch a lot of porn? Jax: You know, it is customary to knock before entering a room. Tracy: Well, believe me, I do apologize. However, this is your boardroom. It didn't occur to me that you would be making out with -- what is that outfit? Secretary? Call girl? Help me here. Tracy (to Jax about Sam): ...Little Miss What's-Your-Pleasure lost the cards and the gambling rights to Luke... Tracy: Why don't you go off in the corner and file your nails until Jax needs your [pause] services. Tracy: Why are you everywhere and what are you doing here? Tracy: Why the long face, little pirate? This is your lucky day. Tracy: I just got your message. You left the hospital to go diving again? Sam: Oh -- if you're going to tell me I should've waited until I was fully recovered -- Tracy: Not at all. Risk your health all you want. What about the treasure? Sam: I never got close. I was trying to find my way on to the Courage but that's when the explosion went off and it knocked me out, so I didn't -- Tracy: Well, the night is still young, Sammy. And that’s about all. Not to depress anyone or anything, but Tracy was on A LOT in late November/December 2003. If I had to guess the average, I’d say 4 days each week. She interacted with the Quartermaines, Sam/Jax, and Dillon/Georgie/Sage. Bits and pieces with Luke and Scott. Storyline might have been crap, but at least she was on. Anyway…I gotta work on being positive. So…YAY! We have Tracy spoilers! Finally!

*waves to Lainey* knh, I tried the site and am not having problems. Did you follow these directions? Hope you get it to work! And I hope you feel better soon. About the 24 hour/Wardrobe thing...I doubt Tracy will be on for 24 episodes in a row, although it's a nice thought. As for the actual outfit, Dead!Animal Sweater is her "disaster gear." She wore it for the train wreck AND the virus SL, so she might just wear it again for the hostage situation. And if she does, I seriously will be laughing out loud. LOL. Edit: Page 216!

Breakroom, anyone? http://pub13.bravenet.com/chat/show.php/1049349012

ILoveTracyQ, you better come back the minute Tracy returns to our screens. Lainey, I think you totally made that date up. LOL! Luke's back at the end of January, and February is going to be one day in GH Land. Each episode is going to be one actual hour in real life time. There's an interview somewhere of TG suggesting that soaps go the "24" route. Or something along those lines. Anyway, I just found it today, and SoapDish is speculating that it might have been TG's idea and that he will behind the scenes for most of this. That doesn't mean we can't see Tracy though. She'll be on the outside. She HAS to be.

nex!!! Welcome back!!! angel!!! So glad to see you posting!!! NEW VIDEO!!!! Who Says You Can't Go Home: MegaUpload Who Says You Can't Go Home: SendSpace Soaps In Depth and Soap Opera Weekly Tidbits... _ _ _ _ _ SID: With Jason's relunctant permission, Sam takes a job with the Qs. Tracy hates her. She's got a strange job with Edward. Nothing we don't know... SOW: Tristan Rogers says that with the consultants, he hopes he'll get a story since Y&R is a different soap than GH. Does that mean we really are getting Jack Smith?!? Jack Smith, who LOVES families and corporate stories? Our girl, of course, fits into both! Edit: *waves to MinervaFan*

Guess who's returning to the TQ LOVE today?!? nex!!! It's the 27th, right? My attempt at being positive about upcoming spoilers... _ _ _ _ _ Remember last February Sweeps? We had ALL these rumors. Rumor, after rumor, after rumor (plus some spoilers), and not one mention of Tracy? Sort of like this time around. And what happened last year? We got Dying!Dillon, Chapel!Tracy, LuNacy!Hug, etc. And even though she only appeared in 8 episodes (yes, I remember that), Jane Elliot got a lot of awesome material. So...Perhaps, it'll be like that this year. Dillon and Alan are both inside the hospital. There are some kind of cameras that allow those on the outside to see what it is inside, and so if Sam, Nikolas, and Emily can be on the outside worrying about their loved ones, then so can Tracy. And Edward too, since he's not mentioned at all. Yes! Edward's presence means Tracy won't be limited to talking to Sam or Emily. Plus...If there are cameras that allow them to see what's going on, this means, Tracy could actually witness Alan's death. Not that Alan dying is a good thing, but JE's reaction will be. See, everyone? I can find some good in this!

Aww, slow day today. Hey, look at my banner in my signature. Yeah, I cheated. It's almost like my Xmas one. I got clips!!! Originally mentioned in this thread, the site has been having problems since October. I've been checking on and off, and guess what? IT'S WORKING!!! Follow these directions: You'll want the GH episode of Monica when she has AJ during the blizzard: Click the photo of Lesley. On the right side, under Proxies, you'll see Windows Media 400kbps [play]. Click [play]. Not sure how it is going to work for those on dial-up. I also wouldn't try rewinding/fastforwarding until it plays through once. It lasts about 45 minutes. Anyway, you'll get Tracy/Edward, Mitch/Susan, Alan/Rick, Monica/Lesley/Gail, Bobbie/Luke, and some combinations of the aforementioned groups. Enjoy!
