Stories Retold - An Interactive Webcomic

[Maximum Zersk]

What? It seems like a fun idea, so I'm tryin'.

Well, this is an interactive webcomic. For those of you who don't know what that means, an interactive webcomic is a piece of sequential art, made a few panels at a time, in which the actions of the main character are chosen by votes made by the readers.

Also, I ask that the votes would be formatted something like this:

> Befriend the Watermelon

It's easier for me to find the votes then.

But now, without further adieu, let us begin!

You aren't the only one who reads MSPA around here.

And Keep coming Pumpkin voters.

Where doing this bro, where making this happen.

Yes, but:

Hm, I feel like I should make a reference to something.

> Pick up pumpkin

is where it seemed to have started.

And it's "we're". :smalltongue:

VOTE FOR THE BAD ASS PUMPKIN!

Actually, you tied. It's awesome, so here.

[MethosH]

Before I say anything... I would like to say that Mr. Bad Ass Pumpkin have something to say about dragons:

anyway...

>Look around for an exit.
>Look behind that rock.

[Maxios]

>Chisel rock into a suit of armor or look for an exit

[Maximum Zersk]

Whoops, made a mistake. Fixed.

[Rae Artemi]

And it's "we're". :smalltongue:

... I was making a Homestuck reference. Also SBaHJ, but that's pretty much part of Homestuck, so yeah.

Anyway:

> Eat rock

[MethosH]

On a separated note: Pumpkins are fun to draw.

You should put my Pumpkins on the first post as fan art o/

Ah, good idea! :smalltongue:

[MethosH]

Ah, good idea! :smalltongue:

You missed the Pumpkin with a flag and the Pumpkin killing a dragon :smallannoyed:

Also.. you should update the first post so people won't get lost when they get here. Add a "Current Situation" tab or something... An archive with links to your posts where the situation changes would be great as well

[Maximum Zersk]

Ah, yeah. I'll do that right now.

[MethosH]

Doing it from the beginning will prevent you from have to work hard on the future :smallbiggrin:

[Maxios]

I counter that with "Hard Work may pay off in the long run, but lazyness pays off right now" :smallamused:

[MethosH]

I counter that with "Hard Work may pay off in the long run, but lazyness pays off right now" :smallamused:

I counter that with "Medium Work now brings lazyness to the future"

[Maximum Zersk]

I counter both of those with "orange work pays off blue!"

[Maxios]

I counter that with "Medium Work now brings lazyness to the future"

I cannot counter that. Good job :smallannoyed:

[MethosH]

I counter both of those with "orange work pays off blue!"

Oh my god... You just... won.

[Rae Artemi]

Oh my god... You just... won.

The game?

[Maxios]

Man! I was hoping I could post "I won a thread" in my signature! :smallmad:

[MethosH]

The game?

DAMN YOU! I JUST LOST IT! :smallfurious:

[Maximum Zersk]

Okay guys, back on topic.

Anyway, any commands that would be quick? Like, > Map Check, > Health Check, or something?

[Maxios]

>Carve rock into suit of armor

[MethosH]

Okay guys, back on topic.

Anyway, any commands that would be quick? Like, > Map Check, > Health Check, or something?

We do have map and health?!
DAMN!


> Map Check
> Health Check

[Rae Artemi]

I'm still saying to eat the rock. I'm not gonna put it in suggestion form again, so that you don't think it had been suggested twice, but yeah, eat the rock.

Also:
>Health check

[Magicyop]

>Eat Rock

I totally second eating the rock. It is round so it must be like the sun, right?

[Keveak]

>Dance reverse raindance
>Sing

What? We want sun and help, right?

It's worth a try :smalltongue:

[Nidogg]

>pick up rock
>hold it infront of stomata

Arent pumkins roots?

[kaptainkrutch]

> Carve rock into suit of armor, then eat it.

[Magicyop]

> Carve rock into suit of armor, then eat it.

This is the most awesome compromise EVER.

[Bradakhan]

>Carve rock into utterly useless pair of socks

What? He won't be totally naked anymore

[Threeshades]

>Check inventory and spell book.

[TheLaughingMan]

>Check Bacon Number

[Magicyop]

>Check Bacon Number

I agree with this. We must find out our bacon number before we can do anything else. But we must then eat the rock.

My new vote:
>Check Bacon Number
>Eat Rock

[Hyoumu Yau]

> Find the interface
> Throw the rock to see if it has magic powers, and if it does - eat it to acquire them

[kaptainkrutch]

> Update the comic

[Maximum Zersk]

No rush, it was A GOOF!!!

(Please tell me you've seen The Ten...)

Sorry, I can't say that I have. :/

Anyway, I think I have a partial update here.

Menu Explanation Time

http://i608.photobucket.com/albums/tt165/Zorosuke/CYOAMenu.png

Within the menu, there are a few things you can check: Skills, Equipment, Memories, and your Inventory. There's also two maps, one of your immediate surroundings, and one world map that will get bigger as you explore.

http://i608.photobucket.com/albums/tt165/Zorosuke/CYOASkills.png

Here are your skills. There's your general knowledge, language understanding, spell list, and your Testawesomerone levels. General Knowledge, Languages, and Spells are descriptive enough with just their name. Let's focus on Testawesomerone.

Because of your gender, you have a gland that produces Testawesomerone into your blood whenever you do something awesome. It let's you perform feats and abilities that are, simply put, awesome.

http://i608.photobucket.com/albums/tt165/Zorosuke/CYOAEquips.png

These are what you have equipped at the moment. Right now, you're naked, save for your glasses. Might wanna fix that.

http://i608.photobucket.com/albums/tt165/Zorosuke/CYOAMemories.png

Memories, will be explained when needed.

http://i608.photobucket.com/albums/tt165/Zorosuke/CYOAInventory.png

Your inventory, what you're carrying.

Explaining health next.

[nerd-7i+e]

>Leave

Seriously, did we need a map to think of that?

[Maxios]

> Carve rock into armor or clothes so your're not a nude pumpkin.

[Keveak]

-Figure out why there is a big picture of "Nothing" in your inventory
-See where the tunnel goes, if possible do it awesomely.

[Nidogg]

>Retrive the nothing from your inventory and examine it

[TheLaughingMan]

>Wield Nothing as Weapon

[Mordaenor]

-> Wear Nothing

Oh, I guess we already are. If we're wearing nothing, and we put on Nothing, are we still wearing nothing

[TheLaughingMan]

Alternatively

>Use large supply of Nothing to throw yourself a party.

Or,

>Update Comic

[GreenMuffin]

>Leave

The guy has a point.

Or,

>Update Comic

This is also a wize decision

[Maxios]

>Update comic!

[Nidogg]

>update! We want to see what happens to pumpkin!

[bubbambjr]

>update must know what happens to Awesome Pumpkin
>Carve rock into armor,No nudist allowed

[Maximum Zersk]

Right, update. >.> I'll do that when I get home.

[Maxios]

Right, update. >.> I'll do that when I get home.

Yay! The story of the Awesome Pumpkin will continute!

[bubbambjr]

Yay! The story of the Awesome Pumpkin will continute!

Yes it shall!

Hopefully in the future Sanchez will pull a Pinocchio on us and become a real boy!
