Only have one template made so far, I'm making them in the order they're introduced...
Great work mate
Just want you to know that I can't wait for you to do Grlump in your style...
Can I request an avatar sized version as well for personal use if it's not too much to ask...

Well, yes I did. I also said that I would accept any comics made for ABR Corps as canon, so you could basically do whatever you want. But I would prefer a Lantern.
The only reasons I said that Darklord Bright didn't have to make his character a Lantern was because A) He already HAS a lantern character, B) he said once he found the lanterns boring and C) He's Darklord Bright! He could make any character awesome, and with his description of a "classic" Darklord Bright, I didn't want him to compromise his idea! Lastly, D) He's DARKLORD BRIGHT. I would have said ANYTHING to get him to join my plot! He's that awesome!

So....in short, you think I fail, and that DLB fails less, and you want to get him in your plot more than you want me to get in it. IS THAT RIGHT?! FAVOURITISM?! GO TO HELL, Q!
*Ahem* Sorry, forgot my crazy meds. That joke was a lot funnier in my head. I perfectly understand your reasoning, and though I will coldly plot your death, it's nothing personal. I'm doing that to everybody here.
....
Oops. Um, something shiny! Over there! *Flees*

I haven't been on this particular forum for very long, but i gotta say that on the ones I have, "old players" (for lack of a better phrase) always develop favoritism for each other, particularly if they like each other's work.
DB's art style, while odd given the forum, is very good and he has been in ABR before. I dunno about his characterization skills but judging from the first two comics he's made for ABRC it's nothing to scoff at.
I'm not saying you aren't good too. But DB would be a more... i guess the word would be predictable? Stable? ... element to the story.
Also: If you're plotting my death, can you wait on mine until i play ME3? That game is my current reason for pushing forward.

Tell you what. Give me the game when you're done and I'll let you play it twice. Now if you'll excuse me, my genius plan involving a duck and a rather unsafe amount of dynamite is about to enter Stage O--
*From far off, an explosion, and a thunderous honk*
Geese...ducks....who can tell the difference, anyways? *Runs off*

Well, yes it's favouritism. But you know what, prove that your characterization skills, your story telling skills, and your artwork are second to none with one of the most, if the THE greatest, awesome fancomics ever made and then we'll talk about increased character privileges.

But honestly i was just... i think the term is 'playing devil's advocate'? Where you oppose the person just to demonstrate a separate opinion, not because you necessarily believe the new opinion?

Re: Avatar Battle Royale Discussion Thread XXXIV - "Go Go Power Lanters!"
(NO SERVER YOU ARE NOT BUSY STOP LYING TO ME)
Ahem.
Anyway, what was I gonna say?
Oh yeah, Bright.
Well, first of all I think the comics he made already speak for themselves in terms of allowing a non-Lantern character.
Now, Goblin Scribe (Who I am just meeting now, I believe. Hello!), I'm sure you could have made a similarly non-Lantern character, if you had really wanted. ABR is not a dictatorship and no-one gets a final say on anything. (Unless the mods show up and say someth- {kpenguin only counts when he posts in red, shut up} -ing) However, a Lantern character is both easier, already firmly established in the setting and a fairly broad array of characters could become Lanterns. The need to have a non-Lantern character in this Lantern-based game should be...
Negligible.
Now, Bright over there is an experienced comic maker, and has been in ABR for quite a while, true.
This is not why people are so quick to allow him into their plots.
Take a look at his characters.
Any one of them will do.
Find one, bring it up front and show it off.
You see, DLB's sense of humour, coupled with a great understanding of how to make a character act and feel real, are well documented.
Essentially, we know he can take an outlandish or weird character concept and make it work in almost any situation. He really is brilliant.
(And, because he's probably reading this and swelling up his ego, I'm going to point out that Canada sucks. )
For instance, he once played a character who could not speak. At all.
I cannot imagine the restraint it took not to have at least a thought bubble of words, or some other form of communication other than frantic waving of the arms.
The point is, nobody's doling out favouritism here.
The idea of Darklord Bright (the character, not the person) being made for this new plot is just terribly exciting.
I for one can't wait to watch the hilarity ensue.

Perfect explanation is perfect. Though Canada DOESN'T SUCK!
Re: Avatar Battle Royale Discussion Thread XXXIV - "Go Go Power Lanters!"
That video says otherwise! And it is clearly correct.
...Also New Zealand is just Australia for sissies who don't want to die.
Which, to be fair, sounds pretty appealing. =P
But fine, only the French parts of Canada suck.

Don't trust anybody with enough sanity to put together a video.
Or Lord of the Rings fans.
Jingle bells, jingle bells...
French Canada is the best part, they have the funny rules and names, English Canada only have maple syrup.
