I think the Sam Hyde thread needs one since it was originally in multimedia before moving into Grift Wars.
It's really hard to do one on Sam because he's not really a Lolcow, and whenever he does get into shit, he doesn't double down, he just slips away.
 
I've already said I'm going to re-write Jim Sterling's OP, but maybe if I post that intention here it'll actually motivate me to get off my ass and do it. I have the structure laid out already but I will need people to help me gather evidence since we're talking about a 10-year timeline to cover.
 
Now that I think of it the person who did Anna's OP disappeared in 2020 and a lot of shit has happened since. I'll work on a revamp of that I think before I bring out Evie's deathfat OP from the general thread.

Sadly, Jerry Peet/Lily Orchard is a cow more people could get into... if his op was cleaned up and updated since it's been a few years since the OP was edited. I'd do it myself but the timeline is so disorganized and the lore hard to keep up with. (:_(

I've never done a revamp is it just a new post in the original thread and then they change it to op? Can it be more then one post cause Anna's story is long.

Last OP rewrite I did was in the Dobson thread, I've been throwing around the idea of rewriting JustinRPG's OP. I may need a lot of time and booze considering the subject matter but he's a classic Lolcow who is almost wholesome compared to how awful some cows are now.
Justin really does need a rewrite, he doesn't have any real sagas but a single post that fully documents his eccentricities is just what his thread needs. If you do rewrite it, don't forget his posts on Reddit roleplaying Reshiram complaining about Justin's mom interrupting their lovemaking.

There are also some lolcows of history whose OPs could use a makeover, like Rafe15 (the foreverially delitized guy). Some of these old obscure ones wouldn't even need a detailed OP since the lolcows are one-note.
 
The Pixyteri thread is ancient and doesn't have information about all her drama, just points out that the old thread about her was getting shit up.
I believe the main challenge of revamping the Pixy thread is that so much of her history is somewhat lost to time. I would be happy to help on a new OP for her and gathering what is still available, time permitting, but I'm sure there are more knowledgeable users who would be a better choice to helm the project.
 
Good at:
  • playing nicely in teams
  • writing and editing
  • autistically reading long threads to pull out information
Not good at:
  • taking sole responsibility for an OP (don’t have the time)
  • original research in online sewers
HMU if any of that is useful

I could probably rewrite the Wings OP since I know him from PKA, a long time before his COD WW2 meltdown made him a popular lolcow, the only other "lolcow" i know to this extent is Eugenia Cooney, been aware of her since the "youknow" days, Her OP seems fine though.

Assuming I dont have to make a full timeline I could try my hand in other locows if I find them interesting enough, I like to research and compile random trash

I once attempted making a thread on a tranny named Rebecca Loran, but most of her streams were never achieved so all the fun stuff was gone.

I can help with the Wings OP since a few years ago, I went on an autistic binge on Wings videos and know a lot more than I should about wingo

the only issue I have with Wings is his detractors DFEing

Count me in to do writeups with Richard McWingo. He's a cow with a long and complex history and a lot of interactions with other cows, so I reckon this one needs to be a marathon, not a sprint and involve a decent-sized team. Like I said before, I'm below-average at researching and I don't have huge amounts of time to do it, but if anyone wants a timeline turned into paragraphs of bullshit I'm your man. Maybe give me a subsection like with the Keem OP, or I can edit a first draft to add jokes and check grammar, whatever.

I would prefer if you did the writing aspect for it, and I'll do the research. I don't have time today, but tomorrow I'll be able to start Wingo

I wonder who is going to do the Vordrak OP
I'd be super down to help with this, but someone else would have to lead the effort - I've got too much other shit on my plate right now for that, lol.

But speaking of, once I've finished with said shit, I do eventually plan on rewriting the Torswats thread to be easier for outsiders to follow, and to account for all the new information that's come out. That's not gonna happen for a while tho, so don't expect it anytime soon lmao
