I say we should just let it kind of fade away and Bmk could bring it back any time he's not busy with anything. So that would mean everyone just hanging on to their half-finished (or whatever the case) pieces.

I appriciate that, but I'm really not going to be able to get to doing the collab at all. The only problem I have in handing it off to someone else is the burdon that that imposes on them and the state of imperminence that it gives to the entire collaboration, which is why I thought I would just let it die. It turns out that there are people who are more invested in the collab than I thought.

-----

Shirt_Turtle does want the collaboration to live so I am going to leave it in his capable hands. My parts are not going to be done by me so I'll leave that and any other details up to him. I do hope that this can be brought to a successful conclusion, regardless of my own impotence in the matter.

I hate to leave this way, but it may be awhile before I post on the BBS again, if at all. You are a rare, good group of people, Flash Forumers. I wish you all the best. =]

It's alright. If it's fine with you, perhaps someone like Luis or ShirtTurtle or me could take over.

If you want to take the reins, that works for me.

I'm not going to be able to do this. I want to apologize profoundly to everyone, especially those who actually put work and thought into what they've done.

Blame for this rests entirely with me and I will not make excuses for my actions here.

I'm very sorry for everything. I want to thank anyone who had any faith in me for this or anything, it was clearly misguided faith, but thanks; it makes me feel almost human.

Again, I'm sorry.

Do you guys play with your PS2s in the backyard or something? Mine was a near-launch PS2 and it still works fine to this day in every aspect.

PS2
Mine was a launch and gradually died, I got in on the recall thing and sent it in to be fixed but it eventually died again. I bought a new one and it sure is tiny. =)

I'm never buying a launch console again. =P

Also if anyone is doing two consecutive parts and wants an uninturrupted slice of music PM me or contact me on aim/msn.

I know that we're taking our time on this, but i was just wondering if anyone else has progress with their part?

Me too... How is everyone doing? I might be able to be a little more on this during the next couple of weeks than I thought.

All parts currently taken.

I remember when someone (some of us know who it was) was posing as Tom on AIM asking people if they wanted to be mods and telling them to do stupid shit. These people need to get a life.

Another laughed at me and told me to shut up!(this one I'm really sure of)

Some assholes are going to say you suck no matter what you submit, this is Newgrounds. The great thing about passing judgement is that those reviews usually get deleted.

Quit if you want, or keep going, it doesn't affect me one way or the other. The fact that you asked says that you're looking for a reason not to quit, you're going to have to find that reason within, not from us.

nothing looks real and the shading doesn't fit. The pillows look like purple lumps of frozen feces with jizz on them and the blaket looks like the sags on a naked grandmother.

Unless you can do it with more tact, keep your criticism to yourself. I want people to review each others pieces and artwork, but it needs to be done in a constructive way, not a string of inflammitory complaints. You don't need to say it looks good or even that it looks adequate, but point out the flaws and leave it at that, don't bring your abuse here. You would never say "The pillows look like purple lumps of frozen feces with jizz on them and the blaket looks like the sags on a naked grandmother" in an art class while you were reviewing someones drawing... well you might, but you'd probably also get your teeth kicked in.

This is a pretty busy time of year for everyone, myself included. So I'm going to say to everyone that this is, right now, open ended and going to be pretty laid back for the near future. I still want to see it done, but right now things are crazy all around and I don't want to stress anyone out or get too strung up in it myself right now.

Keep your ideas in your heads, if you have the time and motivation feel free to work something up, but don't expect things to be done overnight.

Peace and love. =)

I suck at this game.

If anyone has their doubts or any concerns about it, it would be a good time to get everything sorted out now, as all the pieces now have owners. I have a lot of expectations for this, I don't expect it to be perfect, but I would like to see everyone try their best.

I was thinking of using photographs in my first piece and was wondering what everyone thought of that idea. The premise is to have the camera look past the shoulder of someone glancing out the window at the rain, possibly while playing solitaire or chess by themself.

Id be interested to know what plastic phantom is doing so that i can atleast vaguely cross it over into my idea. Its not much of a collab if people arent collaborating.

I think this is a grand idea and I fully endorse it. I really want communication here, open yourselves to each others ideas and use them. I think using this bbs or AIM/MSN/e-mail etc. to talk to each other is really where we need to be in regards to this collab.

Thanks for the idea Luis. =)

...

To people who have posted their parts or the beginning of their parts... for some reason denvish.net/ulf isn't working for me at the moment, so I can't comment. But yes, please read and understand the rules outlined in the first post. Two main colors, one of them being greyscale and allowing for all the values of each is the most important, visually.

Everyone is welcome to join as long as they follow the rules in the first post, they are willing to accept the criticism of everyone else and are willing to improve based on that. So I'll put you down for 19 then. =)

For what it is, it's pretty damn cool. If it was longer and had music, I can definately see it being in the "experimental" section.

8-10 because it's short, otherwise; awesome.

People are looking for unique and well done pieces of music. Listen to some of the most popular pieces in the Audio Portal to get an idea.

Still looking for some people to fill some parts. If you've thought about joining, now is the time. =)

Say what? Your explanation leaves plenty to be desired, but I think I understood what you are getting at.

You want to film yourself and animate in a layer on top of your video, like a green screen thing?

lol, rhyme.

Yeah, I've seen those in the portal.

Changing the color won't do much to make it more legible. You're going to have to do a thick outline or something.
