Either saturday/sunday seems nice, but has a lot of competition along, its really unpredictable though, and I think we'll get a daily in the end anyways, I vote for either tomorrow, check the submissions and see if theres too much blues in the portal, or tuesday since it seems like slow day, but it could not be, its all luck, so just check the portal and find a nice day within the next few days
I'll make sure to look how the portal behaves this weekend/monday and suggest when we shall submit

@liquid: that sucks
@flashfire, why are some parts in bold? also, remove my clean kirby skit for now

I knew flashfire wouldnt accept it in the end, and I know its not a mutiny or anything, I'm not really sure how I find this funny, but this sudden mutiny and the "extra happy" face on figs post made me lol, anyways, be it with a mutiny or not (preferable option), I'll never (with proper exceptions) let this baby die
@flashfire: yusss, time to kick the kirby collab's a***, b******
@liquid: eyesex is goood

First, before starting a mutiny, i figure we have to wait on approvement of jacco, gustavos, liquid, outcast, and bugde (???), I feel that those should also end up as organizers if wanted, as they are as good, or better, or worse, as you or me, fig, and of course ffex, lets not start a flame war here,

@fig: I flashfire ever shows motivation, ill fully support him, but while he doesnt having a substitute doesnt seem all that bad, and by just doing a part, seeing the number of parts we're getting, he should get co'ed as organizer in the end... I was thinking about:
ffex should also read this...
1. having a simple "play - authors - scene select" menu with a shiny logo up top, a black bg, and rolling camera film with shots of the parts
2. We vote for the best part, the winner gets to submit it
and you forgot outcast, c'mon his cutter part was amazing (never thought tweens could be so shiny)
and UFO was done by jacco, how could ya forget him?

fig, that looks awesome, not how I imagined it but actually better, could you send me the fla?

also, about flashfire and stuff, I still think he's better than some of the organizers nowadays (not gonna point any names), but hes still a bad organizer, so I agree with budge, and my two cents are:
-Isn't vintage's part "meh"-ish? Then have him off of the list and take off his organizer spot, does he come back with a great part, give him it back
-I remember flashfire used to say that help and activeness on the thread could grant higher chances of co-author, why dont we require him to be helpful, to always post previews and keep us up, to already start on the menu, like a good organizer is, im not kicking him off of his spot, he did a good job with the kirby collab, but its really easy to do nothing when you're gonna be co-ed in the end

@flashfire: I remenber you used to be more useful back then, at least your posts were bigger, I still think you do a good job, but please, put more effort in this, its like having a baby and letting others take care of it without giving any rewards that you wont get too, and if fig wants to upload his part, let him, its his, if I want to put my part on my deviantart, dont make me wait 6 months till I can do it..., and if your making a part, figure out at least the joke first, but please dont let me change yet again my opinion on your leading

holy shiz, that sucks, awesome excuse to stay 72 hours on the computer though :P
And, oh, I see, well, looking shiny anyways

@fig: Well, ok, I still wanna make the snazzy explosion (:P) (if it doesnt fit with the blood, just remove it), but then you can draw like the "aftermath" or something like that, but really just do it if you want, I dont wanna force you or anything, thanks for the help ;) Ill send you this saturday... if that's ok with ya...
@liquid: coll story, bro, cant wait to see the "rad" yo-yo tricks

I believe not, contact flashfire and he can decide, maybe show us something you did recently, although I think you'll be, unfortunately, rejected...
(flashfire should really respond already to whos trying to join already)

I hate double posting :(
So... I faced I few dilemmas once I decided to use figs idea:
1. For it to be really "OH SHIT"-able, the blood and guts should be everywhere, and this would have to have an "M" rating or something, that'd be like making something I'm not supposed to watch...
2. Eh... not a big fan of violence
3. Don't want to wait for more lines...
4. After the explosion there would still be like 4 seconds of animation, I feel the bang may be lost a bit, although probably not...
5. I got some killer exams coming up (these are the exams with the biggest weight in the whole year) (and I'm lazy :P)

SOO... I decided I would leave the viewer with a huge "BANG" and let them have their own conclusions, by having waddle explode in a stylish black and white, light shizzys manner :P
(kinda like how kirby is cut on outcast's cutter part)

indeed, and piece o' cake (except for the lip sync, is it ok if hes kinda lookin at the camera whilke he talks?)

Give the drill a sound effect too

I was about to do that

and I don't know about the star evaporation thing, if it was me and my sick mind, I'd have Waddle Dee be torn into a bloody mess by the drill,

but im lazy, I could make him explode or something though...

and then an expression on Kirby's face that says "Oh shiiittt..." and have him side step out of the scene as if nothing happened.

haha

I just think that'd be pretty damn hilarious, we would get quite a few 5s for that.

indeed

@jacco: it seems to be working perfectly now
@turtleco: nice, hopefully jacco doesnt even need to ask you what you look like (You're a blue turtle right?)

Lame: understood.
Rushed: but that was pure fbf DDDDD::::::: ( the end, the start was obviously pure tween )
Except if you mean rushed for the script, like as if it wasnt quite finished, crude, I then agree... (read my reply to Liquid)

His facial expression should be more enraged. Remember, the best way to end a video is on a high note and with a bang, even so this is an entire collab, each part should end perfectly hilarious or pointed out.

So should I just be an unoriginal shit, and give him angry faic eyebrows?

Other from that, great job.

thanks :D

So... How about this:
Once he kills dee, he turns his eyes, then turns his whole head and says:
"WADDAYA LOOKIN AT?"
I also thought about having him say something once the transformation was done like:
"Hehe, This is gonna be fun!"

Other than that it's great. I love the simple graphics and the smooth animation. Who did the voice-actiong btw?

Thanks, GiantJuicyKickBalls did the VA

So i'd like you guys opnion on my little changes, and some suggestions, or just tell if you agree with them, so I can PM juicyballz.

indeed, you may want ffex's permission first, but this collab doesnt really have a parts limit, unless you choose to make 10 parts or something...

I wish there were an edit button just so I could highlight the "greatest collabs" part, and replace the "slap" with "assemble", that would've expressed my thoughts better

also...
IM DONE
kinda... im done, but I still need to do the anime intro and the easter egg (?):

critiscism, improvement, etc. anyone?

That collab there is an artistic piece. Not meant for comedy. It didn't even get FPed. But to say it's a blind collage of skits is a bit off. Notice how the final piece was actually meant to be an ending.

maybe I didnt express myself the way I wanted to
I participated in it, and I would never put it down, even if I didnt participate in it, what Im coughing at is at the menu, carefully crafted by someone (me), its simple, and thats it, it works, and theres no need for a scene select or anything, effort was put into the drawing feature, the movement of the buttons, the preloader facts, and the preloader drawings, but it doesnt have bios and anything, and does it need those? no its mighty fine without them, my final point is: this is what we should do with our collab, in the sketch collab, some people didnt meet the deadlines, well, we didnt up the deadline for 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 months, enough good parts were sent however, and in 1-2 weeks, it invaded the portal, it was a fun experience, it was simple, and we didnt have 16 minutes of footage or a menu that took 2 months to make.

tl;dr
1. I would never put down a sketch collab, as a matter of fact, im praising it for its simple beauty
2. No need for 1 year of work, and giant menus no one reads through, scene selects could be replaced by back/forward commands, and I really dont see the need for bios anymore

tried it again, worked fine, tried once more, itsrangaslife, tried again, itsrangaslife, tried the other joey and you, itsrangaslife, etc.
im using the latest version of chrome, along with the latest version of flash player

I couldn't agree more with you gustavos, I really wish all organizers were like jacco (pixel perfect) and fredstermaster (throw the ball), except for the part "I wouldnt say that", in that case, im really with fig, some of the greatest collabs dont have giant menus with this and that
we could seriously just slap together a play button and some links to the authors pages, get together the parts that were sent and presto

for some reason when I click me i get itsrangaslife
anyways, I really love the megaman and the guy with the hat shooting ones

if ffex doest finish this, I will

if there were a sequel collab led by Flashfire, I would be on the streets letting pedestrians know that there is no God.

never say that, ffex may just want to create a gazzilion installments of "Kirby Shorts", well then become his servants and work forever on lame-ass, unoriginal kirby skits, he'll get all the fame since he'll submit all the installments to his ng and yt accounts, and well be doomed forever!!!
(please note, the above paragraph critiques th sonic shorts collabs, not ffex)

I mean, just look at his posts on the previous page and you'll see what kind of leader he is.

I say page 20 describes him the best, hes still a good manager though, way better then some of the organizers arround here...
anyways, once this ends, I dont want another kirby related collab, but Id really like to join a big effort like this, you know, one that ends up with 40 pages and such

At 9/25/10 04:43 PM, OutcastLabs wrote: Here's what I have for my Bio Kirby. I guess my work here is done. I've got one idea in mind. How about a second Many Kirbies Collab for those who didn't make it past the deadline of 10/31/2010?

thats seems pretty nice, BUT:
1. Too much sequels are bad for your health
3. If someone doesnt make the deadline, the person shows what they have, if it cool, give them and only them an extended deadline
4. There is no "2"

just my two cents worth

enough for today... with the anime intro, my part should have a 1 mb swf :P, thanks god flashfire already got a sweet extension

also, by november last year, I was working on this shit:

Dedede-s-Casino-172660926
what do ya'll think about my improvement?

http://www.newgrounds.com/dump/item/8f8a c2bde6fca9c39b7cc9d6f44dd588
meh...
should be finished by next weekend, but then I'll want to make an anime transformation for drill (no more clean part), which should take more time, but I have some exams coming up along with the deadline, so who here agrees for an extension? something like october 31st?

yeah, contact marky, and wait for micky
we're so close

A random assortment of random menu ideas, please take notice of the amazing art and the original credits!

I'd love joining, and even though I have the time, im forcing myself to finish all that unfinished junk with all the va and stuuf done, just waiting there in its folder, but since the deadline is, well, undefined, maybe Ill catch the train later on, if im considered cool enough to hang out with ya crew of course,
but for now, good luck, and can wait to see what the voice actors will come up with, also, I love the little organized website, thats what a good collab needs!

many kirbys is holding me back :P
should I send my fla so far?

@fig: I understand your point of view and I am glad you jacco and torkirby are in with this.

now about my part:
1. would my (bad?) puns be "unpredictable"? to me in a way they are after all its just a normal talk, its not really going for the normal jokes arround kirby
2. I think that maybe it would be better If I show kirby with the ability before, because then, until kirby appears, you dont understand alll the puns, what do you guys think? (to those who still (?) didnt get it, kirby has the drill ability from kirby 64)
3. Preview anyone? http://www.newgrounds.com/dump/item/8f8a c2bde6fca9c39b7cc9d6f44dd588

Indeed my friend, indeed, even better, It can be great my friend...

long wall of text
I believe that the kirby collab was one of the best ng experiences i've had, with fig even deleting his part from the portal, are we really letting this happen? I want to make this collab stand up to its predecessors feet, and I dont give a damn if it takes 9 months, I feel I should never let this creation of ours die, and I don't care if you guys leave, there have been collabs with a really small amount of parts, but they were good none of the less, its not like we need a 15 minute long collab, ive seen two minute long collabs make history!
So please comrades, drop out as you wish, really, I don't want the collab to be brought down by those who are unsure on their parts, I animated 15 seconds last weekend, because I thought this collab would become something great, and even though I have a lot of other projects on my mind, even though I have met the part of my part which will be the hardest to animate, I shall not drop out.
So psychofig, jacco, torkirby, outcast, hrechkaness (your part was finished mate, you sure you dont wanna go with it? its great) flashfire and his (finished?) jet kirby skit, along with budge and ikool, who I'm sure would be happy to work on their parts, and supersonic, I remind him wanting to be a part of this too, are ya'll sure you don't wanna continue this? I should have my part by the end of this month or by the start of october, we can raise the deadline to january, with that extra vacation time we could have more progress and finish the collab up... 9-10 parts is nice enough, that could make 4-6 minutes, and those ten are just counting fig (1-2), jacco (1), me (1-2), torkirby (1), (outcast (3), and hrech (1), with budge and ikool, we could have 11-12...
tl;dr
I shall continue, I shall finish my part, I shall organize if needed, I shall pm those who dissapeared, I shall let this collab live.
tl;dr of the tl;dr
I'm still in
