LOL, I was a Latin American Studies at the Unviersity of Texas, so FlonkerTed is a nice shout-out.
Loving this story so far. Definitely one of my WIPs right now. Keep up the great work!
Author's Response: Thanks so much for your review. I saw your screen name and cheered. I live in the greater Austin area, so yeah!!

OH MY GOODNESS!!!! so that was intensely wonderful. I can NOT believe Jim jumped across the table at Brian and I can NOT believe they filmed it!!! grr!!! stupid network people! but i LOVE FlonkerTed and the fact that he basically told Jim the truth about SweaterGirl! yay! basically, I love it. I can not WAIT to see where you take this.

And....there's the reveal on the leak. Great job, I didn't see that coming.
This story is becoming a great commentary on the nature of "reality" shows & how much they're manipulated to get good ratings. Jim and Pam are being treated like pawns, but then THEY are being duplicitous and manipulating the circumstances for their own benefit--very interesting! Congratulations on writing a story with themes that work on many levels.

Oh my goodness, I'm all caught up now, in every sense of the phrase! I can't WAIT to see what happens- you've done such a fantastic job with all of it!

OMG! This keeps getting better, but I sincerely hope Jim doesn't blow up at Pam. I feel the worst for Pam right now, even though Jim's been screwed over.
And wow, Brian, if his part in this is what i think it is, wow. WHAT. A. JERK.
Author's Response: Hopefully you'll see that Brian wasn't that much of a jerk. Sorry for taking a while to respond. I'm glad to see people feeling for the characters here. Thanks so much for your review.

Oh, wow GITC! I'm so excited to catch up with this story, and I'm so excited to ahve so many more hcapters to read- this afternoon is going to be so much fun!
I love that they're chatting online now, and I'm trying very hard to remind myself that they don't know who they're really talking to yet.
This story is just so fantastic!

Awwwwwww! Poor Jim. Here I was thinking he was this giant jackass but he has been through a lot, so I'm forgiving him. Awesome story!

Holy Moses! That was SO GOOD. Did not see that coming. Whew!
Author's Response: Glad you liked it! Thanks for the review!

Oh holy carp! Those production weasels are so very sneaky. And FlonkerTed is a very wise man. Dare I hope some sense was beaten into Jim?
BTW -- I like your rewrite of the last chapter, too.
Author's Response:
I think a small amount of sense was beaten into Jim. I'm leaving the last bit to Pam :)
Thanks as always for your review.

I have this story on my bookmarks because it's so friggin awesome!! I can't wait to read what is next :)
Author's Response: Thank you so much! I'm honored.
Date: November 08, 2007 10:43 pm Title: #!^$@#^%@#
this is just getting better and better.
I loved the whole fight aspect. And I can see "Brian's" point of Jim not wanting anyone else to have Pam. It matches some of the opinions I had in season 3.
I love the angst, but I am waiting for some happiness... that or maybe the Pam convo with Flonkerted.
Great work and looking forward to the next chapter.
Author's Response: As always, PokerChips...thank you for your review. I thought it was so interesting in Season 3 that Jim was a dick about Roy in a way that he shouldn't have been if he had really moved on. Thanks again!

This story is just....wow. My friend IMed me to let me know it had been updated and I literally dropped everything to go read it (nerd alert). You've created such an amazing AU here, I can't wait to see where you take it!
Author's Response: Wendy...thanks so very much for your review. I'm so honored that people IMd to talk about my story where there is Ming : ) Thanks again!

Ohhhhhh GodInThisChilis, why oh why do you rock at life?
This was just incredible! I love how you wove the details of other episodes into your own story, and the writing is just so skillful (seriously, your chat room dialogue is so spot on I thought you cut and pasted from a fandom!). Bravo, bravo, and as always, you leave us all wanting more! -CH
Author's Response:
Well, I'm not so sure I rock at life...I cleaned my garage today and feel like I just moved piles of stuff around into different piles...but thanks :)
I'm so glad you like the fan chat. I'm never sure if I'm being too stereotypical. More soon and thanks again!
Date: November 08, 2007 10:17 pm Title: #!^$@#^%@#
Oh, I love FlonkerTed!
Author's Response: I'm so glad. I'm always afraid to include original characters. Someone needs to talk sense to these two.
Date: November 08, 2007 10:11 pm Title: TTYL
That was so so good!! Oh, I can't wait to see what happens next. Excellent. Your revision worked out for the best, I think.
Author's Response: Thanks! I'm so glad you liked the revisions.

I think I prefer it this way ;)
Author's Response: Thanks!

Excellent, as usual! I definitely can't blame Pam for wanting something more than Jim's giving her right now, and with the whole Karen situation, this seems like a logical place to take that.
I must say, I was kind of hoping for a bigger moment of realization in regards to their online personalities though.
Author's Response: Thanks so much for your feedback. After thinking about it for a day and a half, I realized that the reveal didn't come out the way I wanted to. I went back and tweaked a few things and left some other things for future chapters.
Date: November 07, 2007 09:32 am Title: IRL
WOW. I did not see that coming.
Author's Response: Hope that's a good thing! Thanks for your review!
Date: November 07, 2007 09:24 am Title: AFAIK
Oh my gosh, that is some of the best, bittersweet JAM fanfic I've ever read. I'm desperate to read the next chapter but I had to stop to tell you that.
Amazing, thanks.

I'm okay to have Pam hooking up with someone else. She is hurting, and clearly, she is doing something a little stupid. I was more surprised by the fact that the whole chat thing was blown wide open. I thought they had suspicions but didn't know for sure. I don't see Jim and Pam as ones to ever confront things head on.
Anyway, it is an interesting storyline you have going.
Author's Response:
MA-- Thanks so much for your feedback. And after reading what people have to say, and calling my beta in the middle of the work day, I decided that I wasn't successful in what I was attempting to do. I've gone back and tweaked a couple of things in the chapter and I'm much happier about where things are going now.
Date: November 07, 2007 07:47 am Title: TTYL
Oh my gosh!....
I can't believe.
How fast...
I'm hurt.
Author's Response: Sorry for hurting you! Thanks for your review.
