Dikiyoba didn't actually take this picture, but Dikiyoba was standing there when it was taken and was the one who created the PowerPoint it got put it, so it ought to count.

Eh, calling people stupid in such a way has limited effectiveness... I seem to recall a certain member who tried to "veil" insults with vegetables. I mean, it was creative, but it definitely wasn't geared towards intelligent people understanding it.
He obviously didn't understand that when vegetables are to be used against someone, they are meant to be thrown at that person.

If the person to be executed gains about a hundred pounds between the plans for the scaffold are drawn and the actual hanging, then yes.

Dikiyoba saw it on the History Channel a while back, one day when Dikiyoba was sick. It really wasn't the best thing to watch when one is feeling ill.

Actually, it's not. Enraged Slith has it. I used what is on Episode 2's Appearances page, not Jewel's Periodic Table of Spiderweb. They're very similar, but not quite the same.

I'd quote the chat, but I don't have the file on this computer. And it'd be hard to find too, since I've no idea on what day it was...
Was it even mentioned in a chat? Dikiyoba doesn't remember ever seeing it in a chat.

You know it better as the favorite rating abominable photo game vs. return of the undead karma census poll, but, alas! the full title was too long. So we're all stuck with an acronym instead.

That's not new enough. It should be a game with a world so new and shiny it doubles as a light bulb and a background so fresh that you'll never need an air freshener again.

You know, if you hadn't started writing yet, I'd absolutely suggest you try to do Nanowrimo with this idea in a week. (Although technically, nobody stops you from entering anyway and using what little you've written so far...)
I expect this will take more than a month to write. Besides, I don't really like worrying about deadlines and word count. (And I came pretty close to writing a complete and fairly lengthy story in September anyway.)

I was rather surprised to find part 3 complete... its announcement (or rather, lack thereof) was even more surprising.
I already had the last post in this thread when I put Chapter 3 up. So I waited as long as possible in hopes that someone else would post, and then forgot to edit my post before I left for the night.

It doesn't bother Dikiyoba what authors choose to read or not. If it works for them and their writing isn't terrible, Dikiyoba doesn't really care.

Motrax, Elspeth and Nance, Patrick's Tower, and Rescue the Crystal Souls.

Voting on a favorite reoccuring character was difficult, since Dikiyoba has only played A2 and about half the demo of the others.

I actually knew that models and pictures were falsified, so that didn't surprise me at all. (In fact, a lot of models in television commercials look unnatural to me.) I kind of wish the video was longer, though. The transformation happened so fast it was hard to see what was actually happening to her.

It's interesting how everyone has a slightly different approach to writing. I tend to take the opposite approach when I write and let my characters do whatever they want. They know what to do. Most of the time.

Wow. There was a lot of stuff in there that I didn't want to see gone. Please tell me it wasn't my post that caused it to crash.

Dikiyoba did apologize to Ephesos, Lenar, toothpaste, and anyone else who was offended by Dikiyoba's TM-channelling post. Only it was a lot better in the post that was lost.
