  1. Re: Who are the copies/pastiches/tributes/captain ersatz in your campaigns? Fantastic! Illustration is not one of my talents and I love good art.
  2. Re: The Guardians Project - Lets build the original Champions Kestral?
  3. Re: The cranky thread Now, you are certainly welcome to dislike South Park, taste is, after all, subjective, but your argument is spurious. Let's examine your statement: 1) South Park is stupid. South Park is crass, it is often offensive, but you would be hard pressed to find anyone who has watched the show for any length to call it stupid. The show is a lampoon of society and has attacked every sacred cow from Scientology to World of Warcraft to Internet Addiction to Racism to Broadway Musicals to Bro-Culture. The creators of the show have created a multiple Tony award winning musical. The show is quite the opposite of stupid. The show has been critically acclaimed and won CableACE, GLAAD, Emmy, and Peabody awards (the Peabody being the most prestigious award for electronic media). So, clearly, you are in the minority there. 2) South Park is unwatchable. The show has run for 16 seasons with a 90% positive average viewer rating and averages 3 million viewers per episode. That is 1 million more than comparable Cable programs. Clearly it is watchable and by a larger than average audience considering the age of the show and the fact that it is a cartoon. 3) South Park is like Beavis and Butthead. Beavis and Butthead has experienced none of the above mentioned success in viewership, ratings, awards, or criticism. The plot of the show is, by design, non-existent and two (barely) animated characters "review" music videos and talk about scoring with chicks, how much they hate school, and getting high. Much of the dialog is merely looped or replayed. The similarities between the show are simply not there. Again, you're certainly welcome to not like the show, we are all slaves to our tastes, but the statements you made are simply unsupportable.

  18. Re: Who are the copies/pastiches/tributes/captain ersatz in your campaigns? Excellent Golden Age to Iron age transition. Exactly the dark path my mind usually walks. Sadly I cannot rep you again -- yet.
  19. Re: Can you post character builds on these forums? Fixed it. I forgot to set the permissions in Linux.
