Avatar Battle Royale Discussion Thread XX: Because WAAAAGH isnt good enough.

[X2]

The Irony of that statement, considering your character, is immense.

Which is probably why they would make such good rivals. The only difference is that Xavik acts like that because it's part of the persona he intentionally projects (Which is part of the reason for his mad skillz). Xarty acts like that because it's the way he is.

At least he was vulnerable enough to get captured, vulnerable enough to need a bodyguard, vulnerable enough to suck at almost all schools of magic ('cept Evocation of course), vulnerable enough to...

You get the idea.

This'll be Xavik's first slight however.

Xavik's alot more vulnerable than he seems. Which is kind of the point. I mean, if you can't make something not work, the next best thing is to make your enemy think it won't work.

I'll type up an explination for the source of Xavik's mad skillz in abit. For now, I've got Psych to study.

How does he feel about point black Arcane Fire?

[BRC]

How does he feel about point black Arcane Fire?
It would probably hurt, if he dosn't dodge it, or cut off the casters hand, or just shoot the caster with his entropy gun.

Oh, here's the explination for Xavik's Skills.

Xavik uses something called “Warlord Magic”, so named because it’s often used by barbaric warlords, many of whom don’t realize their using it. The premise behind Warlord Magic is that a commander draws power and personal strength from the confidence and morale of the troops under his command, and their opinions of the commander in question. The more confidence the troops have in their commander, the more power the Warlord can draw on to boost themselves. Most people who use Warlord magic stick to making themselves stronger and tougher. However, if used properly, Warlord Magic can make one faster, more agile, faster-thinking, and even luckier.
Xavik has become very good at using Warlord Magic. His confidant Swashbuckler persona is designed to make his troops feel that everything is all right. He manipulates rumors, and uses his personal charisma to make his troops trust him, then he projects a visage of constant confidence and surety. His troops then think “My, the colonel sure seems confident, so I’m sure everything will turn out okay”. He then draws on that high morale, does stylish, awesome things in full view of his troops, raising their morale even more.
However, as effective as Warlord Magic is, it has a weakness. First of all, the Warlord’s power will be greatly diminished if they don’t have enough men nearby to draw power from, or if the morale of his troops is low. Therefore, the best way to handle somebody using Warlord Magic, if you identify what their doing, is to ignore them and attempt to route their forces. Or , if possible, try to defeat them in a dramatic fashion. If the troops believe their commander is all-powerful, and you defeat him easily and with one fell swoop, they will likely rout.

Currently, He’s in his own fortress, fighting a small group. His men are very confident which, combined with personal skill and some magic items, accounts for his blinding speed.

*stuff*


Soooo... when we beat Xavik in a dozen or so comics that'll make him weaker?

[BRC]

Soooo... when we beat Xavik in a dozen or so comics that'll make him weaker?
Pretty much. If he get's visibly beaten up in front of his men, then his persona of invincibility gets hurt. He can do damage control (Claiming he let them go as part of a plan, saying "Don't worry, we'll be ready next time", or if he's really desperate, trying to alter the memories of the troops that saw it with the Voice of Command), but it will make him weaker, especially if it's a dramatic victory and Xavik is visibly injured.

[X2]

Because it is encumbersome and difficult to make such a skirmish I was wondering if Xavik had a robot suit he could board that we could all fight one-on-one with even odds.

X2 would use Arcane Pyre on Xavik and he would retreat to his robot room and Brain (having telepathically got exactly where the robot room is) would teleport us right there where we would fight the big robot and win!

Sha-BOOOOM!

We all laugh, waste 4 hours, finish the Home Base plot and promptly end the episode.

[Lemming]

I thought episode 1 had something to do with a giant city?? Or is that because eps 1 & 2 are squished into one volume for the cover you designed. :smalltongue:

No, He's a Tank Commander, not a robot suit guy.

I mean, you could find yourself in a big open bay of some sort, Xavik and a crew hop into his custom tank, and a fight scene occurs.

Personally, I just say we duke it out in the hallway, as everybody's already there. Make your Arcane Pyre attack, lets just keep improvising, as that is the ABR way.

This sounds like a good idea to me. Especially since making comics with big fights against multiple enemies is kind of a pain.

Wow, still not done yet? Stagnation is our destination!

Also, the pbp has been updated. Please post.

New TJH comic incoming... :smallwink:

[Grim ranger]

Woah. TJH seems like rather cool plot, and it even gets something done. I am shocked. Almost too shocked for words, but not quite :smallwink:

I have thought of a idea for TJH villain. I have even made picture of him ready, and backstory is being swiftly thought over and written shortly. Can you reserve place for villain in coming episode, X2? Pretty please? I wants in :smallsmile:

Episode 2? Doubtful because it is a very plot important Episode whereas 1 was violence and character introduction.

PM details of your character and I'll review him.

[Grim ranger]

I shall, when I get back to my own computer that is. Right now, I am at school and it is bit difficult to send that from there. But I will get to it today, I promise.

[BRC]

Dibs on the next TJH comic by the way. I'm currently working on the design for Xavik's tank.

[BRC]

TJH comic up! It's time for Xavik to show off one of his toys.


Woah, I just realized, Xavik and Xarty. Both Colonels, both with names that start with "Xa", both incredibly confident.

[Wreckingrocc]

Perhaps the prefix Xa- to a name means, literally, confident colonel.

After the final fight I meant... of course it's going to be well done, but it's NOT going to be done in 50 comics, I estimate about 10-15 comics until the end of the fight.

[Green-Shirt Q]

Friends! I would like your opinion on something that I have made.

To practise actual sprite-art (that I draw, rather then copy paste and recolour) I have made this.

Have any of you ever played Yoshi's Island DS?

http://i40.tinypic.com/w8rpfp.png

I did not draw the yoshis, but everything else is 100% made by me! :smallcool:

Not bad, eh?

[memnarch]

Oh yeah! Very nice! hmm... I've only got 2 thumbs.... that's not nearly enough to show my rating. :smallcool:

[Shades of Gray]

Lookin' cool. And by Yoshi's island DS I hope you mean Yoshi's island for N64. The true Yoshi's island game.

PS: Post in the town with Morgan.

[Green-Shirt Q]

PS: Post in the town with Morgan.

I know A LOT of people who would strongly disagree with that statement and say that Yoshi's Island for N64 is the only REALLY UNTRUE Yoshi's Island game.

I like them all, but I like Yoshi's island DS slightly more for Baby Bowser's and Baby Wario's playable status in a few levels. :smallbiggrin:

PS: Right now? :smallconfused:

Besides, Morgan has been put on a bus.

[Shades of Gray]

When was he put on a bus?

Also, heresy. The first game in a series is never the most untrue. That is impossible. Granted, the later games might be better, but true Mario for example is a game where you jump over turtles and mushrooms and beat bowser, not golfing.

A while ago, okay?

Also, what the kettle-corn are you talking about? Yoshi's Island for N64 wasn't the first Yoshi's Island game. Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island was the first. And what do the stupid golfing games have to do with anything? :smallconfused:

[Shades of Gray]

I was saying that the original in a series is THE ORIGINAL. One can not say that Yoshi's Island for the N64 is the most untrue to the series, as it was the first. That's like saying that Star Wars "A New Hope" is untrue to the franchise. It is also like saying that the original mario game is less true to the franchise than Mario golf.

Ah, no. Yoshi's Island (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Mario_World_2:_Yoshi%27s_Island) for the SNES was the first real yoshi game with yoshi as the main character, instead of support.

List of appearances (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yoshi#Appearances) of yoshi on the right side.

[Lemming]

Yoshi's island is one of my favourite game boy games. DS was okay, but I feel they could have done better. Never played the N64 one, but I have played super mario world.

Also, I like the ABR babies. I demand more babies! :smallmad:

Great comic Xarty. The urge to Flamethower that piece of paper is overwhelming.

Question, how is Brain supposed to Mind Control the driver without line of sight?

I vaguely remember a beholder who sketched up his ABRs so I assume it's allowed. If it is, I'm going for it.

As long as you stop talking about him then I'll say that's a good idea:smallsmile: (he kept kicking me)

EDIT: I thought about my FI characters and Keveak settling down and getting kids just don't fit the character (technically staying calm for five minutes is out of character to him) so I decided to use Keveak and Kewrath instead, my idea involves them being hit by the reality shift spell (maybe while Keveak is summoning Kewrath thus screwing with the effect), loses their magic while getting send to a post-apocalyptic nuclear wasteland world and getting pulled back in 15 years.

Brain's ESP rating is max (as stated in his Wiki article) so he can pinpoint the driver by focusing.

Hey it doesn't all have to be D&D. Just when it's convenient.

I just had a great idea That Somebody should turn into a comic.

Paper gets Flamethrowered, or dosn't go far enough)
Brain (Via Telepathy): X2, what was on that paper?
Xarty: My Genius plan for getting us out of this situation! Now you don't know it, so were screwed.
Brain: Um Xarty, I have Telepathy, you can just explain the plan to me like we're doing now.
Xarty: But how will you comprehend it's Brilliance without my masterful and informative illustrations!
Brain:...Somehow I'll manage.

If you want.

Some ways Xarty's plan could fail, I'll get opinions.
1: Brain needs line of Sight to Mind Control, even if he knows where the driver is, he can't control him
2: The Smoke and Mirrors blocks mind control somehow, maybe felsteel acts like lead in that regard or Xavik built in Anti mind-control the driver measures.
3: Brain tries it, the driver makes his will save, or whatever.
4: Brain tries it, but the tank isn't going fast enough to cause any damage when he crashes it into the wall (Tanks are alot tougher than they are fast, and may actually be built with bashing through obstacles in mind) and the effort exauhsts Brain.

Well it's up to Sinister (although the plan should take a few comics to fail). It could be that it's about to work but Xavik catches on and kills the driver. Having the telepathic meld severed forcibly would send Brain into cerebral shock (is cerebral the right word to use here, whatever, you know what I mean).

Working on a comic. Here's the template for Xavik's flame tank, the Smoke and Mirrors (So named because of it's commander's famous cigars. Because of the flamethrower. And because Xavik had it built with some illusion magic to pull off things like that pile-o-crates trick from before. Usually it's a rock or abunch of trees or something).

Tiny (The driver, or at least that's what Xavik calls him), getting Voice of Commanded out of his mind control, hits the breaks on the tank. Brain gets some feedback and goes all sparky for abit. That feedback could result in anything from a mild headache that would be cleared up by a few asprin and ten minutes lying down on the couch, to brain damage. That's up to you guys, but it's probably closer to the former.

Yes... FEAR THE WRATH OF TINY!

edit: Tiny isn't actually any bigger or smaller than most machinists. Xavik's first driver was nicknamed "Tiny", and so after he died, Xavik made it a tradition to call his drivers "Tiny". When there are multiple tiny's around, they get designations: "Big Tiny" "Little Tiny" "Magi-Tiny" "Smart Tiny" ect

[X2]

Yes... FEAR THE WRATH OF TINY!

Brain In A Jar: (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/BrainInAJar)Brain from TJH plot

Cerebus Syndrome: (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/CerebusSyndrome)ABR in general seems to suffer from this rather lot

Incendiary Exponent: (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/IncendiaryExponent)ABR in general makes good use of this rule

Kill It With Fire: (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/KillItWithFire)Used many,many times in ABR. Expecially magnificently done in recent TJH strip, in which the villain uses flame tank

Lethal Lava Land: (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/LethalLavaLand)Episode 1 of TJH takes place in such enviroment, and FFF:s hell equvalents are often like this

I think Fire and Brimstone Hell (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/FireAndBrimstoneHell) fits better
Edit More Troperage: Government Conspiracy (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/GovernmentConspiracy): Them. "People don't believe the truth, the truth is what people believe" indeed.
Tank Goodness (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/TankGoodness): Or perhaps Tank Badness. The Machinists love this.
I had some more, but I forgot them.
Powered Armor (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/PoweredArmor?from=Main.PowerArmor): The machinists use this. : Souls have plenty of uses. Everything from antimatter and fuel.
Our Souls are Different (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/OurSoulsAreDifferent)

Added all these to the page.

Bad news ya'll. My computer is sick beyond repair and I need to re-install windows. :smallfrown:

I have backed up all of our important files (including my templates) but however I will not be able to post a comic for a while unless it's from school (as I am posting this message now).

Just do it! We need to move the plot:smallsmile:

[CrimsonAngel]

Would making a guild of (plane hopping.) bounty hunters after Damien for something he did to them be wierd?

[Shades of Gray]

There's already something like that, CA.

Two of my future TJH characters are members of the DPD, Dimensional Police Department. They hunt down planehoppers and force them to pay a fine and get a license.

Also, any criminal records disqualify you from getting a license.

And planehopping is a criminal offense according to them.

...

So one must get a license before they plane hop for the first time.

[CrimsonAngel]

http://i43.photobucket.com/albums/e381/CrimsonAngelChris/g406.png

[Shades of Gray]

The two existing DPD... Are a bit less... Nature-y? The current members of the DPD are from the turn of the century, early 1900s, in an alternate timeline.

[CrimsonAngel]

She's evil. (are the DPD good?)

[X2]

Hey guys I'm back for about an hour while windows installs. Did I miss anything?

EDIT: On someone elses computer

CRIMSON!

Hey VampireRot, say you planted a gem on shadesworth when you attacked him and you've been tracking us for a while. Ally with us to fight Xavik but then betray us bringing x2 to ARCANA RAGE!!!

[Mina Kobold]

She's evil. (are the DPD good?)

As Mad said, no sane person sees themselves as evil. But they are enemies of the D-jumpers and has some strict and weird ideas (so to us they are evil)

[CrimsonAngel]

She has a grudge with Damien.

[Shades of Gray]

Perhaps she plane jumped somewhere, the DPD arrested her, and she offered her help with getting the D jumpers, in exchange for her freedom?

Get things straight! :smalltongue: You keep getting me confused. Planes are inside of dimensions (plane of fire, ethereal plane, etc.). Dimensions are what we are hopping, not planes. They are different things. :smalltongue:

Or is it that they started out against plane-hopping, saw X2 dimension hopping and decided to track him down?

[Mad Mask]

Get things straight! :smalltongue: You keep getting me confused. Planes are inside of universes (plane of fire, ethereal plane, etc.). Universes are what we are hopping, not planes. They are different things. :smalltongue:

Or is it that they started out against plane-hopping, saw X2 universe hopping and decided to track him down?

Maybe they do both; this would help religions speak their lies in Avbaroy without fearing plane hopping wizards. :smallsmile:

[Shades of Gray]

Here's what happened (story time kiddies)

The DPD were originally the PPD (planar police department). They were confused when Xart and co. appeared in their plane (in their dimension) without it showing up on their radars. They sent Aimée and félix to investigate, who in turn, gathered info on D-Jumping. The DPD managed to reverse-engineer the D-Portal, although its strength was reduced (had to go through a week long downtime).

Now, they still hunt Planehoppers, but Aimée, Félix, and others are a special branch of the PPD known as the DPD, who hunt Dimension hoppers specifically.

[Wreckingrocc]

She has a grudge with Damien.So, together, she and Damien will try to kill someone they both hate?

[X2]

Hey guys! Even worse news. The internet on the newly installed windows computer is not doing a damn thing! It might be a while before we fix it. :smallfrown: Suggestions

Get your ears checked. They are very loud.


Anyway, I've been sending my legions across Gaul recently (AKA playing Rome: Total War), but I could make a TJH comic, though it would probably just be the Smoke and Mirrors finding where somebody is hiding, and being about to charbroil them, giving time for somebody to intervene.

[memnarch]

I sit on the sidelines and occasionally comment. :smalltongue:


Recently, I decided to read through Narbonic. Sheesh that is a big archive.

[Green-Shirt Q]

I just saw the new Star Trek movie. Thought it would be my duty as "the_Q" to go see it.

It was alright, I suppose. It was less talky-talky and a lot more stuff blowing up, which is always a plus. They didn't even bother explaining the black-hole creating MacGuffin gizmo, which is refreshing.

But, like all things in life, it would've been better with a lot more Q and a lot less Ewoks.

Friggen Ewoks. :smallyuk:

Lyinginbedmon is doing it, I believe. We're supposed to concentrate on other plots while he finishes his exams at school.

I'd be TJH-ing it up right now, if it weren't for the two projects I have to finish today.

[SinisterPenguin]

Well, I'm preparing an ABR backstory, so I don't spend much time looking at Giantitp.

I'm a bit late, but any chance you could tell us more about this backstory comic, MM? I am intrigued. :smallsmile:

[X2]

Expect an FFF from me. Not really plot important, just X2 strutting and gloating and Threeshades hitting him with a cartoon trap door.

Why? Because I'm waiting for someone else to do a TJH! I'm tired of banging the drum alone (with BRC)

Anyone up for continuing the home base plot?

Like Darklord Bright?

[BRC]

Do I need to have Xavik light somebody on fire? If I do, it will need to wait until thursday, as it's too late to make a comic tonight, and I've got a class of '09 campout tommorow.

[Darklord Bright]

I'm just never sure where it's going. I'd like to be able to lead it around, but I just don't hve any idea which way to go, if you get what I mean. I could always just sketch up something with Katya dealing with the first bluewing on her way to the basement...?

[X2]

Do I need to have Xavik light somebody on fire? If I do, it will need to wait until thursday, as it's too late to make a comic tonight, and I've got a class of '09 campout tommorow.

Well I was hoping to enact failing plan number 2 first. Here goes:

With Brain incapacitated as a result of the telepathic link being forcibly severed command falls on Damiens shoulders but he is unfortunately toasted before any proper command decisions can be made. At this time a gemstone which was planted on Shadesworth is activated and a hologram of Slaudor appears to offer a temporary alliance as Slaudor wants Machinist technology far more that interdimensional travel. The gemstone can teleport Slaudor's attack force with a code word spoken by the one is power. With Xartyve2 now in command the choice to allow the teleport falls on him, he allows it but at the first sign of trouble Slaudor betrays the away team.

From there the group will TPK and X2 will go into Arcana-Rage.

[Darklord Bright]

Plot is going to hell for the heroes around now, isn't it? :smalltongue:

[BRC]

The second generator goes off on her way to the engineering deck and Home Base is stuck in blackout. Katya uses sonar to detect the first bluewing who is closing in on White and Deb in the cafeteria.

[Darklord Bright]

That's a horrible pun and you should be ashamed.

Pun? What- oh. Oh wow, I make bad puns subconsciously...

[X2]

Pun? What- oh. Oh wow, I make bad puns subconsciously...

Oooh! I got a great character development idea!

Is Katya upset that she was denied her application to the away team?

[BRC]

Oh yeah, how does this sound.

The Away Team D-Hop's out of hell. However, that gives Gadley the hint he needs to finish deciphering some of Vadrik's notes. From that, they learn how to build Dimensional Portals, and start sending through teams. One team ends up at Home Base, and defects (Originally as a lie in order to not get killed, but they never get around to escaping or causing real mischief)
The Other Home Basers initially treat them with mistrust, but eventually realize that abunch of devils are nowhere near the weirdest thing they've got working for them.

[Darklord Bright]

Hope no one minds the style/strip itself. I find this style easier to work with - also it's been resized to half it's original size, so tell me if I should make it bigger.

[X2]

Up until now she's been cold and calculating. Way to make a U-Turn.

[Darklord Bright]

Also is she upset that she's not on the away team!?

She might be upset that she can't travel the planes and beat stuff up anymore because she's babysitting the home basers, yes.

She is how she is, if she seems cold and calculating, then I suppose she is - but she enoys killing stuff (and taking their loot, if applicable) far too much for her own good.

Edit: Also, the change in artstyle affects how she is percieved because of how I make her emote herself, methinks.

She used to be a planehopper, not D-Jumper. She misses the days when she did the typical adventuring stuff and is annoyed that they are going out there and doing what she loves and leaving her behind, is what I meant.

Indeed. That would be easier to draw. I don't see how that would impact the story, though. :smallsigh:

Anyway, Shadesworth is supposed to have a gem planted in him to send a hologram of Slaudor (also, who the hell is Slaundor?)? That sounds very complex.

Though I guess I could try it anyway.

I don't think I'll draw OOTS style anymore, though. I'm too used to sprites and OOTS style has never looked very good when made by me. I think I'll also make sprites of everybody myself, using my new-found sprite-making skills, so that you are able to say that I made it.

~TnD's tips to art improvement~

Step 1: Find a program you like! Make sure it fits your style! If you like doing different angles and having details, but keeping your images slightly less shapely, try out photoshop or a similar program and grabbing a tablet; if you want to take the free route and have simple looking but crisp and cute characters, jump the inkscape wagon. Don't stick with Paint.

Step 2: Find a tutorial! Read through it, and draw along with it to get a feel for the program!

Step 3: ???

Step 4: Profit!

[InvaderGir]

Actually, I have Photoshop, my problem is having time to practice. And as for tutorials, I can just ask my dad, (he is a computer artist/ effects artist/ skybox artist for Bungie)

Seriously... He had a sammich in his head.

[Green-Shirt Q]

I just want to let you all know that I have now officially abandoned OOTS style art.

I have made Shadesworth's, Xartyve2's, Skimmer's, and Saunders' templates plus the tank, all with pixel-art that I have made 100%! :biggrin:

All I need to do is the actual comic part of it. I will throw it all together tomorrow. For now: nap time.

Just saying so none of you blow up the tank before I can post my comic, if you all don't mind.

[InvaderGir]

Seriously... He had a sammich in his head.

SAMMICH!!! :smallbiggrin:

hhmmm... Who should I kill next... :smallconfused:

Whoever it is will have to face the awesome power of... The Taco Hammer dun dun duhn! Elan! sorry...:elan:

[X2]

Well posting has been nonexistant so I might take a short break until someone finally does something. I know I've got a LOT of Deep Space Nine to watch.

Goodbye guys, I'm going to miss you. But then again, all good things must come to an end.

I will return. *rides off into the sunset*

[Lyinginbedmon]

Now's probably a good time to mention that my holidays start today...

[Nameless]

Now's probably a good time to mention that my holidays start today...

I don't get Half Term. ._.

[T-O-E]

I have made Shadesworth's, Xartyve2's, Skimmer's, and Saunders' templates plus the tank, all with pixel-art that I have made 100%! :biggrin:

Reminds me of "A Modest Destiny".

[Mina Kobold]

Now's probably a good time to mention that my holidays start today...

Mine started yesterday (yay!)

@Q: nice new style but are you sure that the plan was to let the demon help the ENEMY... Not to critizise or anything ( trying to be friendly while pointing out erorsmis hard, don't hate me:smallfrown:)

[-skimmer-]

Nice improvement Q!:smallsmile:
But wouldn't there be some problems with gestures, walking and such?

Also, 3 weeks to holidays for me:smallfrown:

[BRC]

Nice work Q. Though if the Tank WAS that close, it would be flamethrowering. But that's no biggie, good work on the style.
Edit: Though, looking again, Shadesworthy seems very buff, and Skimmer has very prominent...assets...

[Green-Shirt Q]

Edit: Though, looking again, Shadesworth seems very buff, and Skimmer has very prominent...assets...

Yeah. I've never been very good at drawing females. I always screw up one way or another. I'll try to fix that though.

Shadesworth is supposed to look like that.


@Q: nice new style but are you sure that the plan was to let the demon help the ENEMY...

...Oh crap! CRAP! :eek:

I misread the plan! I screwed it up! :smallfrown:

Oh well. I guess we'll have to find a way to incorporate that to make it make sense. We'll need a new plan.


Nice improvement Q!:smallsmile:
But wouldn't there be some problems with gestures, walking and such?


Not really. I made templates without legs or arms, so that I may be able to pose them easily.

[VampireRot]

...Oh crap! CRAP! :eek:

I misread the plan! I screwed it up! :smallfrown:

Oh well. I guess we'll have to find a way to incorporate that to make it make sense. We'll need a new plan.



Don't worry, I fixedished it. Horray for improvision.

[Green-Shirt Q]

Don't worry, I fixedished it. Horray for improvision.

Horray indeed. Thank you. :smallsmile:

[SinisterPenguin]

...Wait, I'm confused. Why would Xartvye tell Shadesworth to bring the gem to the tank? What purpose does that serve? :smallconfused:

Also, nice new style, Q.

[Green-Shirt Q]

...Wait, I'm confused. Why would Xartvye tell Shadesworth to bring the gem to the tank? What purpose does that serve? :smallconfused:

...That was my mistake. :smallredface:

[CrimsonAngel]

Hey everyone. :smallsmile:

[Green-Shirt Q]

Hey everyone. :smallsmile:

Hello to you too. Nice to see you again (sort of).

[VampireRot]

Hey everyone. :smallsmile:

Hey Dr. Nick!

Waitaminute...

[CrimsonAngel]

Hello to you too. Nice to see you again (sort of).

Golly, thanks Q.

[Green-Shirt Q]

I just realized! This is getting close to 50 pages again!

Has anybody else called it yet, and if not DIBS ON THE NEXT THREAD!

[SinisterPenguin]

...There's 9 pages left. That's not exactly what I would call close, especially at the pace we've been going at recently. :smallwink:

Also, nice new avatar, Q. :smallsmile:

[memnarch]

Given the amount of time it took for this thread to show, it might be reasonable.

[Green-Shirt Q]

...There's 9 pages left. That's not exactly what I would call close, especially at the pace we've been going at recently. :smallwink:

Also, nice new avatar, Q. :smallsmile:

Well, if I waited until page 48 to call it, somebody else would've before me. :smallsigh:

And I'm glad somebody noticed! :smallsigh:

[VampireRot]

Baby Q in the avatar has a big nose.

>.>
<.<

Haha!

[Emperor Ing]

Ah, it seems someone doesn't get the reference. :smalltongue:

[VampireRot]

Ah, it seems someone doesn't get the reference. :smalltongue:

Reference to that baby mario game. But baby Q still has a big nose. :smalltongue:

[Emperor Ing]

I believe Baby Mario had a big nose as well.

[VampireRot]

I believe Baby Mario had a big nose as well.

That doesn't make it any less funny. :smalltongue:

[Emperor Ing]

That doesn't make it any less funny. :smalltongue:
Then pick up a copy of Yoshi's Island and tell me how long you're LOLing for.

[VampireRot]

Then pick up a copy of Yoshi's Island and tell me how long you're LOLing for.

Mario's nose is supposed to be big, it looks natural. But on Q it looks hilarious. :smalltongue:

[Emperor Ing]

Maybe he has cancer you insensitive bastard. :smallannoyed:


:smalltongue:

[Green-Shirt Q]

Baby Q's big nose more of a reference of a past Q story then to Mario.

It is a reference to the short-lived Tales of the Q-man (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=95411).

[Mina Kobold]

@BRC: What exactly is the floor in the tank room made of (as I've stated before Moss power don't work on metal or artificial material)

Probably Concrete or Metal. Definitely not a natural substance though.

While strolling through the park one day
In the merry, merry month of May,
I was taken by surprise by the greatest thing I've seen in ages.

Unfortunately I couldn't get a shot of the full thing. Too much traffic. D:

Also, I had to buy my friend some ice cream because I sort of punched him in the stomach when I was grabbing for his phone. <.<

Uhhhh.... What is it?

[Tiffanie Lirle]

You don't know what Aperture science is? Then I have nothing to say to you. D:

[VampireRot]

OH! Portal! The cake is a lie! Right?

[Emperor Ing]

Uhhhh.... What is it?
....
You are not worthy of an explamation sir. :smallannoyed:

[Falgorn]

Post it everywhere...see if you find an actual Aperture Science Lab.

[Lemming]

....
You are not worthy of an explamation sir. :smallannoyed:
Can he have an explanation then? :smalltongue:

[VampireRot]

Can he have an explanation then? :smalltongue:

It's a labratory in the Half-Life universe. Where Portal takes place.

[Emperor Ing]

Someone's slow to catch on. What do you think all of Glados's references to Aperture Science meant? :smalltongue:
"Hello, and welcome to the Aperture Science computer-aided enrichment activity."

[Shades of Gray]

Tiff, you did not fulfill your duty. You had to follow that car back to the lab, steal the portal technology, and bring it back to me in Canada.

Seriously, you are the worst lackey ever.

[Green-Shirt Q]

Seriously, you are the worst lackey ever.

Wait, she was your lackey? But I thought.....

*sniff*

Never mind. :smallfrown:

*runs away*

[Tiffanie Lirle]

Lacky..?

I work alone. *Dramatic pose*

[Shades of Gray]

Couldn't we meet halfway?... Right in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean?


EDIT: You ninja deleted... Maybe you aren't such a bad lackey after all.

[Lemming]

It's a labratory in the Half-Life universe. Where Portal takes place.
You were the one needing explanation. Not me. :smallannoyed:
So you'll have to forget all about Portal so that Rand can explain it to you. :smalltongue:
*Throws pheromone pod*
*Runs*

[memnarch]

Have you tried searching online to see if you can find it Tiff? I'm having no luck so far.

[Tiffanie Lirle]

Have you tried searching online to see if you can find it Tiff? I'm having no luck so far.

Haven't bothered, I just assumed it was some guy who was really into portal. :smalltongue:

I'll check around though.

[BRC]

I should make a TJH tonight, possibly involving the big red thing, and a number of rounds (less than Six, but greater than Four) and rapidity.
Or just having Tiny ram Socks.

[Emperor Ing]

Mean ol' Tarrasque with a monacle and top hat... I'll get my own gentleman Tarrasque! With blackjack! And hookers! In fact, forget the Tarrasque...

psst, post comments in the comments thread.

That was in the art thread?! Dammit... Oh well. :smalltongue:

...Eh. What?

[Mad Mask]

Just until monday, than it's back to being grounded. By the way, I'm grounded for arguing with my mom about spongebob.

Somehow, I don't think this is the whole story...

[Lyinginbedmon]

I too would like some kind of explanation there

[Mad Mask]

Tim, are you going to make a Fat Fish Fury comic ? Or should I ?

[VampireRot]

I have an idea! Lets substitute the word "Spongbob" with the first word that comes into your head.


...

Why is your mother angry about cheesecake Crimson?

[Lyinginbedmon]

Working on it but I've been very busy lately.

Feel free to give it a shot, first the finish line wins and whatnot :smalltongue:

[CrimsonAngel]

Newscaster: "blah blah, something about a double entandre about sponge bob."

dad: come in here to take your pill!

me: yes, dad.

later.

me: What was the double entandre, mom?

mom: A double entandre is something with two meanings.

me: I meant the one for spongebob.

mom: a double entandre is something with two meanings. :smallannoyed:

me: no... the one for spongebob.

mom: a double entandre is something with two meanings. :smallmad:

me: the news guy-

mom: THERES ALOT, DO YOU WANT ME TO NAME THEM ALL? :smallfurious:

me: no, just the one he said.

mom: a double entandre is something with two meanings! :smallfurious:

me: Nevermind, I realy don't want to argue.

mom: AGH!

later.

dad: why did you argue with your mother?

me: pardon?

[Lemming]

...Hmm? What? I lost you at "pill"...



:smalltongue:

[VampireRot]

...Hmm? What? I lost you at "pill"...

It's his crazy pill. We all take one.
