Comic Amalgamation Station

Hahaha.

Well this didn't make much sense, but it was amusing. The bright colours contrasted the happenings quite nicely (well, except for my pic, but I ended up being too lazy to colour it).

If we're doing another round, I'm in - unless Hookbill (or whoever's going to mod it) decides on a participant limit and there are other people who want to try it.

However, I'm not sure if some more consistency would be needed. I kind of liked it this way but it might be worth a try - say, if the mod gave the players a short list of characters to choose from, or just wrote a story to explain the pics once that the round is finished? Or would it become too much like Paper Telephone?
Dunno.

I agree with a need for some consistency... but we should not destroy the very anarchistic idea this whole thing kind of rests on.

I think with a host more contributors and some deals made of the central characters this would be much more fun. With 10 to 15 pics the mod could really do her/his best and would have a lot of more choices to build a funny story. With only six pics one has very limited possibilities.

But it was fun to be in this and I do hope we'll get a new one with lots of contributors to make this a real event!

That's not a bad idea. I had thought of something along those lines, but wasn't sure whether or not to do it right away.

You're right that we need more players. So, call up your friends, and your enemies! Let's get some sort of MASSIVE comic of some sort of doom.

That was rather insane. I love all the pics.

I agree that there was maybe a slight problem with consistency/ making sense, but I think it was more because of the original sentence than because of the rules. Had the sentence sent to all of us included some character or object (eg. "Frodo caused a tragedy in Hobbiton"), it would have turned out rather different, I think. So, I don't think the rules necessarily need to be changed. (It's a question of preference, I think.)

Count me in for the next round.

[A Little Green]

You can count me in as well. Great work with the last one, guys. That was pretty weird.

[Hookbill the Goomba]

Okay, players signed up for the next game...

- TheGreatElvenWarrior
- Aganzir
- Nogrod
- Thinlómien
- A Little Green
- Oddwen
- phantom, the
-


I'll try and maintain some consistency by giving a list of characters for the next one. Maybe at least two can volunteer to do the 'ending' and 'starting' frame? Would that be good?

[Oddwen]

That was silly. And it did make some sense, as tp and Agan shared a character in theirs...thank goodness for widespread inside jokes and egotism.

I'll volunteer for the next round.

++ a list of characters

++ volunteer for the starting frame

We might also have some slight basic ideas about the central characters, like if there is Aragorn he should have "brown shirt and a green backpack" or whatever so that we might be able to see the drawer has intended the same character. It doesn't need to be minute as all creativity is okay but just some such features which would make it clear to everyone who the character is (like Faramir is having a red feather in his hat )?
