What's with 3S? Um, that was a bolt. You know, because he has a crossbow.

Good, except for the funny yellow triangle in the upper right hand corner and the black dot in the lower right hand corner. (yes I am just being nitpicky )

Re: Avatar Battle Royale Discussion Thread XVIII
1- No it doesn't. Governments don’t give terrorist groups different names, especially silly ones.
2- The difference is, they are people who want to join, this is a name.
3- Why can't you just drop it? If it's just a minor detail, why do you insist on it even though no everyone agrees on it.
4- It doesn't matter that I don't refer to them as FAIL, it's still stupid to give them two names because of the reasons above.
5- It's not a compromise at all, ALF are still being called FAIL which is what I'm arguing against. If they're still going to be called FAIL then how is this a compromise?
6- Even when the plot started, it was still quite random.
7- By annoying, I mean it annoys me, not the fictional characters.
8- FFF had to come to an end at some point, so do all plots, that's what happens. FI just offered something else to do once it's over.
You can’t call an organisation a completely different name in a comic where everyone contributes.
It’s like me calling the UN, STB. No one would know what I’m talking about. You want to make it more realistic, and if you’re the only one in the comic calling it FAIL then technically none of the other characters wouldn’t know what you’re one is talking about because it’s “realistic”.
9- And how is calling them FAIL realistic? Since when does anyone give a joke name to a terrorist group, or any enemy. Do we have a joke name for the IRA? Hamas? Did we have one for the NAZI's? We have never given a joke name to a group of people who are terrorists or kill people.
It would be completely unrealistic.Last edited by Nameless; 2009-03-06 at 06:06 AM.

Shouldn't someone make a new thread? Since by the time it's mod approved we'll be at the next page anyways.

Re: Avatar Battle Royale Discussion Thread XVIII
Could you two please drop this? Please? I thought ALF was agreed on and this is just starting to get annoying. And nothing about how "It was a good compromise" or "No-one would call it FAIL"" or anything like that, because that will just start up the whole argument again.

Re: Avatar Battle Royale Discussion Thread XVIII
@Nameless: Fine, non-canon I just wanned to get your character pissed and go badass-mode (it could be repaired by mending or something anyway) I had two reasons to think it wasn't a problem
1) you did the same in Super Heroics. 2) You've never used it so I assumed it was for show and not important. But I'll make a new comic as soon as I get a new what-the-sword-shall-hit idea (I also assume you don't wanna get hit yourself)Treasured Quotes

Re: Avatar Battle Royale Discussion Thread XVIII
...
...you don't even understand the entire argument, do you? It would be nice if you'd pay attention instead of making snide remarks.
Originally, I was arguing for the UNA to call the ALF FAIL. But then, it turned out that the only guy in agreement, Mad Mask, was joking the whole time. So I decided to compromise. I'm 'arguing' for FAIL to be a sort of nickname which originated on the TV show.
Pay attention, please.

Re: Avatar Battle Royale Discussion Thread XVIII
Sorry, it just kinda struck a nerve. Let me clarify this:
First, the UNA doesn't really call them FAIL that much. It's more the general populace. It started on the show, but then people who watched it started using it. Soon, it was a rather popular name.
Second, Nameless is against the whole name even existing. Not really sure why, except that he thinks it's 'silly'.
The way I thought it was a compromise is that I went from the UNA exclusively referring to the ALF as FAIL, and encouraging everyone to do so, to it just being a nickname from a TV show. It would appear that it was not much of a compromise, but that's what I thought.

Re: Avatar Battle Royale Discussion Thread XVIII
That's exactly what I've been arguing against.
Did you even read anything I posted? You're telling Kev to pay attention when you obviously haven't payed attention to any of my arguments.
1- No it doesn't. Governments don’t give terrorist groups different names, especially silly ones.
2- The difference is, they are people who want to join, this is a name.
3- Why can't you just drop it? If it's just a minor detail, why do you insist on it even though no everyone agrees on it.

Re: Avatar Battle Royale Discussion Thread XVIII
But kids TV shows do.
An additional detail that adds to the setting.
If we only did what everyone agrees on, then we wouldn't do anything. And then we'd disagree about that too.
FAIL isn't a name for them, it's a colloquialism used by the public. People can refer to you as both Nameless and the Grim Reaper can't they?
It is a compromise. Gremlin wanted the UNA to call ALF FAIL, and never ALF, but has now compromised and FAIL is a colloquialism used occasionally by the public. You're the one who's refusing to compromise.
But now it's a lot more structured, and FI is more structured too. If you don't like it, join SDSB or stick to random kills.
You may find it annoying, but it's something you'll have to live with.
He won't be the only one putting FAIL in his comics. And if needs be, we can explain where the term came from in comic.
It's not a joke name given by the UNA, it's a joke name created for a kids TV program, and draws such obvious parallels to ALF that most people in FI will know what you're talking about if you call ALF FAIL.

Re: Avatar Battle Royale Discussion Thread XVIII
1- No they don't. Since when would a kids TV show involve politics and terrorism? I'm sorry but that makes so sense at all.
2- It doesn't add anything to the setting.
3- *Read bottom post.
4- People don't usually give joke names to a terrorist group though, at least in a "realistic" setting.
5- Actually, he wanted ALF to be the name, and FAIL to be the name used by the government. So really, now all it is that it's used by the public, so if anything it's going to be used more.
6- I never said I didn't like it, I'm looking forward to FI
7- But if it's "just a name" and "no big deal" and not everyone likes it, why use it?
8- What?
9- I'm talking about the characters themselves, technically, in a realistic setting, if only a small group of people use the term FAIL such as Gremlin, most people in the setting won't understand it.
*I say the best way to sort this out is a simple vote. Those who want the name being used as a joke by some of the public because of a kids TV show, and those who don’t think it’s necessary to have it in.
I don’t want to use it because it’s unrealistic to give a terrorist organisation that supposedly kills people a joke name from a KIDS TV SHOW that involves serious politics in it for some reason. To me that sounds redicules.
I also think it's unnecessary and irrelevant.
…
And also because I find it annoying.Last edited by Nameless; 2009-03-06 at 01:45 PM.

Re: Avatar Battle Royale Discussion Thread XVIII
When it's propoganda. That's when.
Anyway, if you hate it so much don't use it. Sure it's silly, but people in real life are not 100% serious. I didn't see you complaining about the fox-girl who bludgeons people with a giant bell, Stephen Mask getting killed like eight times and then showing up just fine when somebody else made a comic, The Grim Reaper running around adventuring, a 500 year old revolutionary leader, a hive mind that controls hat-wearing spherical robots, a nation origionally created to handwave peoples sci-fi characters now having a lengthy history, penguins, a giant flying yellow citadel, or countless other "Silly" things in ABR.
