ABR Disscusion thread XII: Not to be confused with important stuff

[memnarch]

Let's see, Icedragons said he was going to join the Rescue Ven Mini-arc, so I'll wait for him to post before progressing with that. Besides, I need to make a Rob and Jack tonight.

I'll wait then too.

@\/; What; kill yourself?

[Threeshades]

In order to make megadoomer less annoying i led the situation on a little.

[Fawkes]

Dun Dun Dun!

[The Gremlin]

Dun Dun Dun!

I bet TS is gonna possess The Shades' body.
Great job, 3shades.

[Ninja Chocobo]

Tangent; what kinds of school classes are people taking?

English Bull**** Standard (2U)
Latin (2U)
Mathematics (2U)
Physics (2U)
Software Design and Development (2U)
Chemistry (2U)

Listed in order of HSC exam date. Though I'm not sure the first three count given I've now finished them forever.

And I'm a freshmen.

Meaning what, exactly?

-image-

This is the second time you've killed yourself in canon. I'm starting to wonder how many times you plan on doing this.

[memnarch]

He's either in 9th grade (on a K-12 scale) or first year college.

[Fawkes]

Given the names of his classes, I'm guessing high school.

Wikipedia's article on the term freshman.

[Ninja Chocobo]

college.

Define this, please. I've seen it used for at least four different things. High school, University, upper levels of high school, or a different tertiary institute that's not described as a university.

[Fawkes]

In the United States, college refers to education post-high school.

[memnarch]

K-12 is about 6 years old to 18 years old. College is the extra schooling that you can get once you've graduated from 12th grade. So I suppose university falls under that category.

[Ninja Chocobo]

In the United States, college refers to education post-high school.

Right!
Now if only it was simple to tell exactly where everyone using the term lives, and the exact circumstances in which people of that area tend to use it.

[memnarch]

My post not sufficient?

Minnesota, US.

[Fawkes]

College is where you go after high school. I told you that. That's the exact circumstance. Szilard's location says California, and I believe it's been previously established that Memnarch is American.

I don't understand why you're complaining.

[Ninja Chocobo]

My post not sufficient?

Please not I did not specifically refer to you, but rather to:

everyone using the term

I don't understand why you're complaining.

Because not everybody uses it in the same way and it is very difficult to tell where some people live and how they use it. Not specifically you, Memnarch, or Szilard.

[Fawkes]

Because not everybody uses it in the same way and it is very difficult to tell where some people live and how they use it. Not specifically you, Memnarch, or Szilard.

All three of us are using it the same way. When you asked us what it means, we answered you. I don't understand why you're still upset.

[Ninja Chocobo]

All three of us are using it the same way. When you asked us what it means, we answered you. I don't understand why you're still upset.

Because there are more people than you three in the world, who may or may not use it differently. I am not upset at you, rather, I am upset at whoever decided the word should mean more than four different, yet occasionally infuriatingly similar, things.

Once I stop being lazy. That hasn't quite happened yet. It might be about to happen though.

[DoomITP]

most will know the girl character from my failed backstory.

[memnarch]

Can't wait to see how TS responds to that.

[Fawkes]

I, the Archivist, hereby rule that Megadoomer's two most recent comics are non-canon on the grounds that THERE IS NO TELEPORTING ONTO THE VENDETTA.

*bangs gavel*

Bailiff, take him away!

[Hyozo]

Easy: I never use the lines, ellipses, or anything controlled. Only the pencil. I only copy and paste other people. And I type as bad as I can.
Actually, I think I did too well. I doubt that the true lousy artist would be able to copy/paste, or flip things around.

I think it's a bad thing that we complain about these newer and less talented artists, Pretty much saying " If you aren't good at this you don't belong here". I mean, think about who we would have lost if that had been the way we acted back in the earlier days of ABR. Everybody has to start somewhere.

(note: This post exists solely to connect the modern lower quality artwork with some of the art which was around pre-plot. I do agree that MR (among others) has been problematic in more ways than just the quality of his art)

EDIT:

*bangs gavel*

Bailiff, take him away!

Except for the garbage chute, which he did say he was using.

[Fawkes]

I, the Archivist, correct my mistake, and rule that the first is canonical, and the second's canonicity is currently unspecified; it is simultaneously canon and non-canon; it is Shrodinger's Comic.

I, the Archivist, demand cake!

I, the Archivist, question the canonicity of the hat-and-mustache comics.

I, the Archivist, am very tired!

*bangs gavel*

[memnarch]

There's a difference between just making a comic (mr) and trying to make a good comic (early comics from what I see; Bright as newer ex.)


He did use the garbage shoot, but we still have the problem of he being on the bridge.


@Iced; I suppose your just being lazy right? and shades didn't have me last comic either, right?

@/\;

Spoiler

[Hyozo]

@Iced; I suppose your just being lazy right? and shades didn't have me last comic either, right?

I was looking at SoG's most recent comic while deciding what to do, and I don't have a template of you yet (and I didn't want to delay the comic further to make one), so... Yes to both.

[memnarch]

Thought so. It's quite alright. (once )


@mecha; see previous post for cake.

[kpenguin]

Question: Is the vendetta shielded against scrying?

[Darklord Bright]

Let it also be worth noting that the Vendetta has a spring-loaded chair stuck in one of its spike-things.

[Ninja Chocobo]

*bangs gavel*

I got one of those.

I think it's a bad thing that we complain about these newer and less talented artists, Pretty much saying " If you aren't good at this you don't belong here". I mean, think about who we would have lost if that had been the way we acted back in the earlier days of ABR. Everybody has to start somewhere.

It's more the visible amount of effort involved. From the context, Lying's positions were made from cobbling together pieces of other characters.

And he managed to make them look consistent. From my experience something like that takes a lot of effort, and doesn't really compare with someone who treats spelling like... Like a number of things which aren't politically correct.

[Emperor Ing]

So tempted to rezz 3S....

[Almighty Salmon]

Apologies for not having done the follow-up comic yet, i'm in a stage of writer's block. I'll try to buckle down and get it done tonight.
