March 17, 201115 yr Exactly. The world is, obviously, huge. Changes in one continent may mean an entirely new language spun off, with only remnants of the first still surviving. And then even more languages will pop up, disrupting it further. And, even if it is the same, people may argue over this, how this is spelled, said, regional differences conflicting with each other... And war would be a hell-raiser for any world language.

March 17, 201115 yr Latin seems to generally be used to avoid the creation of new words and turns of phrase, since it's a dead language. But that's only in science. I agree with Archi. :/ 10:53 PM - retech9691: I feel the need10:53 PM - retech9691: To include many chasms in my story arc10:53 PM - Resistance: You mean plotholes?

March 18, 201115 yr So I cleaned out the Binder of Holding (yes, that's what I call it now) today. I now have a stack of sketches to upload, color, and generally bend to my will. Tonight will have very little sleep.
March 18, 201115 yr With less of an aerodynamic design to increase fatality rates, yes. It does. Lemmings aren't suicidal:[hide]StephenIt is a lemming, it's a Norway lemming. AlanThey don't actually jump off cliffs. StephenThey don't jump off cliffs. CliveIt was invented by Disney or somebody? StephenOh, dear me. [Forfeit: Klaxons sound. Viewscreens flash the words "MYTH INVENTED BY DISNEY".] StephenIt was not invented by Disney, no. There were two myths about it, one that they commit mass suicide, the other that it was Disney who invented the myth. CliveAh, right. StephenIn fact, they didn't. As early as 1908 in an . . . Arthur Mee's Children's Encyclopedia, he talks about them throwing themselves off cliffs into the water. SeanThey have done it. It was when their migratory path hit a cliff. StephenThey don't really migrate, but they're fantastic breeders. A mother can produce eighty in a year, and when the population swells, they have to move off to find places where they can eat. CliveSo what are we saying, they do throw themselves off cliffs, or they don't throw themselves off? StephenThey don't. They don't at all. CliveThey don't. StephenThe Disney film though, you're quite right, was completely faked. I mean they made this film called "White Wilderness"; they had to bus in lemmings from thousands of . . . CliveAnd they . . . they tossed them off the cliff did they? StephenThey did, well they sort of dropped them in front of camera in a close-up, in a rather pathetic attempt to do it. They're not any more suicidal than any other [/hide]A dictionary which is enforced by only words therein being accepted in educational facilities and a liguistics ministry to decide wether or not terms for new things are acceptable.Wholly incorrect[hide]- The French language has only a quarter of the number of words the English has. As a result, the French sometimes use French words, but they are mis-translated. In French, "Les people" means "Celebrities"; "Un brushing" means "Blow dry"; "Un relooking" means "Makeover"; and "Vaselin-ay" means "To flatter". French dictionaries do not include these words, but they are used all the time. [hide][/hide][/hide] http://www.uzzisoft..../archimage.jpegWell I knew you wouldn't agree. I know how you hate facing facts.
March 18, 201115 yr First lesson of life, Earth. Anything can kill you. You haven't known fear until Emily explains how she would kill you with a marker in a childlike HAL voice.Reiteration of this, you don't know fear until you imagine having your blood set on fire in your veins, being tortured, and stabbed repeatedly in all the worst places for about three hours until you finally crack and think about how that squirel just peed on you..Happy four hundredth page, Back Room, may your suffering end soon..

March 18, 201115 yr I'm head of the class, there. And yeah, that'd be hilarious, although I wouldn't be suprised if the mods decided to show up in.. Oh.. 266 more pages?

March 18, 201115 yr Not Mods, Admins. Red names work much better with that whole theme.

March 19, 201115 yr So this is one of the characters for my "planned" webcomic. Note: She has no arms, she moves the sleeves via telekinesis. OVERPOWERED PLOT DEVICE GO[hide][/hide] D'you guys think I could get away with making a webcomic as of now, or do I need to improve my art skills some more before actually starting?
March 19, 201115 yr Maybe, not sure, I believe most people read webcomics for the plot. It's a REALLY big shaft.I didn't catch fire, I used the can of hairspray as a flamethrower and pointed it at my arm.how are you going to ignore my posts when I'm offering to let you live as my vassal in two weeks time?
March 19, 201115 yr Maybe, not sure, I believe most people read webcomics for the plot.Yeah, but if it has crappy art, most people will just pass over it thinking "oh, no effort there. lazy bastard." So my question is - is the art good enough for people to actually get to the plotline without vomiting?
March 19, 201115 yr On a related note:http://www.vgcats.com/super/ http://www.uzzisoft..../archimage.jpegWell I knew you wouldn't agree. I know how you hate facing facts.
March 19, 201115 yr To be honest, you wouldn't be successful with that drawing style, you need to sharpen it up a little, get rid of the grainy, bold lines and not soften the shading. Also, those eyes are way too big. Twitter: @TheMather1
March 19, 201115 yr I say the art's fairly good at the moment, but it needs a little bit of improvement. With a little practice you could probably get to Parallel Dementia levels, which aren't particularly impressive but convey the atmosphere of the story very well. 10:53 PM - retech9691: I feel the need10:53 PM - retech9691: To include many chasms in my story arc10:53 PM - Resistance: You mean plotholes?

March 19, 201115 yr I think that the faces need a bit of work, mainly the mouths, because I can't usually tell if they are smilling or frowning or whatnot. Other than that, if you think that you can portray all of the scenes with flair and emotion, then you are ready. :) Master of your domain?
