Sparklypoo is gone!


Explanation:

Sparklypoo is (was?) a hilarious comic parodying all the really, really, really bad Harry Potter stories where an American transfer student/female professor would come to Hogwarts on a mysterious mission, dazzle everyone with her brilliance, beauty, precocity, and ability to see right through the plot, and bag the male character of her choice (usually either Harry, Draco, or Snape, who was most memorably paired with a Mormon once and converted. Yes. Really). The comic had all the new perfect girls sorted into Sparklypoo House, and it ended with the Mother of All Catfights.

I clicked on my old link to it today, and it's gone - domain lapsed. *weeps*

So sad--where will the Mary Sues live now?

I left a comment for the person responsible for Sparklypoo and she said the site will be back online soon! Something about forgetting to renew hosting.

Phew! Because it sounds like I have to read it.

or Snape, who was most memorably paired with a Mormon once and converted. Yes. Really

Golly. Youve got to feel sorry for his spirit children.

I forgot to pay for my web hosting renewal! It should be back up soon. Thank you for calling attention to it!

I'd only ever seen a couple of strips, but they were killers. Very glad to see from responses that it's forgetfulness, not deliberate absence.

Perhaps when it's back up you should download your favourite bits?

I had no idea this was still around! And also astonished to see that not everyone has heard of Sparklypoo House. That's a logical contradiction right there, I suppose.

Yes, but at least he could have offered himself as a proxy for Potter. Wouldn't *that* have been amusing?

*falls on your neck and weeps in gratitude*

I LOVE that comic. "There can be only one" kills me every time.

NoooooOOOOOOO!

(I'm also a fan of Lina Inverse, who got a guest appearance in Sparklepoo House. Destroying everything with a Dragon Slave Spell is her usual M.O., which tells you how silly Slayers, the fantasy anime is)

Whew. Sparklypoo has become a running gag for many of us.

Psst, did you see this is back? [livejournal.com profile] gmonkey42 is the author and she just posted saying that she renewed it.
