War of the Forums

[mr_pikachu]

Sike: Haha! Yeah, I thought that'd get people's attention. And the sad thing is, I've heard worse during my own martial arts classes. We've had to give people push-ups for bursting out laughing in response.


B4: I'm glad you liked it! To be honest, I was really quite proud of that page for a few aesthetic reasons, some of which I can't go into right now. Despite the utterly ridiculous amount of time required to find pictures of Mechazawa - when you have to pull screencaps yourself, it's a bad sign - I thought it turned out pretty well.

You want to... erhem. Well. I wonder whether you'll still have that opinion in the end.

Procrastinating is fun! And eating gorp is... um... what's "gorp," again?

I look forward to more, too. ^_^


Faiz: I suspect there are probably a few more Chrises than that. Who knows? I just may surprise you...

At any rate, I need to remember that line for future reference. It may come in handy.

Who's Kenshin? Bahaha! Have fun guessing!

(Spoiler:) And just bringing up the old subject again, Belle = somebody who I will decline to name at this time. That reveals so much!


Gavin: Yes, there are a few different forces at work here. And on a note that may be a lot more related than it seems, the most powerful person in a company is the CEO (or sometimes the president). The second most powerful tends to be that person's secretary. I'll let you work out the significance of that comment, assuming it has any.

Who does Dark Sage mean when he refers to "him"? You'll find out soon enough. Maybe I'll be nice and reveal the truth early... maybe.

When I said WotF would have toilet humor, I wasn't kidding!


Let the games... end?

#134: Now that's hypnosis.

Note the rare use of a sound effect in panel four. I don't often resort to that, but sometimes there's no other choice.

[Gavin Luper]

Mm, I agree, the sound effect was really the only decent option there to signal that MH had collapsed. I found it effective - and appropriate, too.

So, Dark Sage is not big on the compassion thing. I suppose, in a rather cold-blooded way, it would make sense to push MH to his limits - you know, to see what they have to work with. But it also shows what kind of regard they have for him: not much. Is he just a useful pawn in their power play? Possibly.

A good page nonetheless. I like where this is going. And ... did that comment of yours mean what I think it means? I don't think I want to say after my last hat-eating incident ... I'll just ponder this one quietly, then.

[Dark Sage]

Mmm. It does seem like I'm being rather cruel to MH. But then again, I'm not a very nice guy in any sense...

Just kidding. The real me is a real sweatheart.

But anyway, I like the fact that my character is being used more. I look forward to seeing how the rebellion storyline progresses.

Let's see more.

[Lady Vulpix]

Poor MH...

[Blademaster]

HAHAHAHAHA! Now KICK him while he's unconscious, Dark Sage! Kick him, steal his wallet, and draw stuff on his face!

[Bulbasaur4]

It's a wonderful relationship they've got going there! *laughs evilly*

Wonder how this training will truly pay off...

And gorp is like Trail Mix, Except better. :3

[mistysakura]

Poor though Mega Horny may be, I reckon he's going to get teh superpowerz soon... I mean the toilet humour has to pay off, right? (Excellent picture choice in #133, by the way.) I agree that the sound effect was used well and wasn't intrusive. Actually, come to think of it the characters in #132 could very easily be Chris 1.0 and Suzie (Kenshin fits Suzie well and Chris is the tech guy), but they're not as directly related to Becca. Actually, I wonder if the fanfic mods know about admins if they don't know about extraterrestial life.

On a random note, if the president's secretary is the second-most powerful person in the company, that makes me the second-most powerful person in my five-person company, which is funny because I started last week, heh.

[mr_pikachu]

Gavin: Heh, I'm glad it worked. I'm always a little concerned about doing that... like it messes with the "purity" of the page, or something.

Interesting analysis of DS. But I wonder if that's really the entire picture. Perhaps some important details are being forgotten... and how expendable is MH, really?

At any rate, I'm sure you have plenty of hats to spare. They're high in fiber!


DS: Hooray for cruelty!

Yeah, I'm trying to get a more even distribution of the major characters. Although just because I'm holding back with some doesn't mean they're any less important... perhaps their prominence will come later, as we approach the climax. We'll see.

Let the rebellion continue!


Gabi: After the earlier incidents with TML, let's just call this karma.


Blade: You really don't like MH, do you?

...

*hands Blade a marker*


B4: With friends like him, who needs enemies?

Yeah, one has to wonder what the results of this training will be. They say that what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. Which option will MH choose?

Oh, and I'm not all that fond of trail mix. Sorry.


Ada: Is that equivalent exchange in action? Heh, well, I'm trying to limit those effects. It's nice to know that their occasional use isn't a problem. And I'm quite fond of your alternate IDs for Kenshin and Mechazawa. As the song goes, you may be wrong, but you may be right.

And that's quite a promotion! Congratulations!


Page.

#135: Shuppet Master sure does a lot of hacking. Could he even rival mr_pikachu's capabilities?

Let the games begin.

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

This is exciting. I think I got more out of this comic when I read it again. Yes, I have read it again, already some weeks ago. Of course, I have read the newest pages, too, later. I even made a hand-written list of the pages and what I think happens in them. It's a long list, but I consider typing it, and thus I ask: Is it okay if I type and post the list down here as a spoiler?

And a note: Your usage of English language is quite clear, but still you introduce some words that I have heard somewhere but don't know, like in the last page 'infiltrate' and 'covertly'. Now I checked them from a dictionary though. I admit, sometimes new English words I see here at TPM somehow drive me away, although they may have the opposite effect, too. Just somethng you may think when you choose words to the situations.

[Gavin Luper]

Dun dun dunnnnn...

Dark Sage drinks scotch on the rocks and looks all smoky and suspicious, therefore he is like Joseph Sterling, therefore he must be evil!

That's my line of reasoning, anyway. People who drink scotch on the rocks in these things are always evil.

And Shuppet Master has these uber-impressive skills, eh? Interesting. This spying is disturbing. The mods have the authority to do this stuff; these guys are pretty much rebelling and breaking the law, right?

Hmmm ... *lines up a row of hats*

[Dark Sage]

Actually, let me say that, in reality, I don't drink at all.

But I still like this portrayal. It's getting better all the time.

I see that my counterpart's old "friend" has finally been identified as Master of Paradox. And now Shuppet Master is going to go spy on him.

Hmm...

This could get interesting... Very interesting indeed. There's nothing wrong with competition... Until it turns ugly.

[Shuppet Master]

Whoa, this is awesome! I get to infiltrate an enemy base and bug it! Cool beans!

Your webcomic is really getting awesome, mr_pikachu, keep up the good work.

[mr_pikachu]

Mikachu: Hehe, thanks! Maybe it's because I've put so much planning into this? I wonder sometimes if people get the full impression of what's happening when they read a page a day, since it may take months to draw a connection between events. (Actually, the next page is a perfect example of that.) But you've printed the comic... you've read through all of it twice... and now you're making a detailed analysis? Wow. I have to say, I'm honored.

At any rate, I'm not going to act as the spoiler police here. Feel free to post it if you like; I might enjoy seeing how close you are!

You do make a good point about the use of language. I often use complicated words in an attempt to develop characters, but I'm sorry if they're hard to understand at times. (I suppose part of the point is that they're beyond the comprehension of many, but... yeah. I'll try to keep that in mind.)


Gavin: What a stereotype! I suppose that is a rather ominous frame, though...

Yes, Shuppet Master's definitely not supposed to be hacking other users. The mods are like a global police force/judicial system/legislature kind of amalgamation, so they do have the authority. Everyone else... doesn't.

Did you know that there's the same amount of fiber in those twelve hats as there is in one bowl of Total?


DS: Ah, I see! I'm a proud member of the non-drinking club myself. You just learn to live without water.

In any event, I'm glad you like the character development. Some of you may have sensed it, but there's a lot going on here.

Yes, I decided to reveal MoP's relation to DS a little early. There are enough other things that have remained hidden; I don't need to add one to the list.

So it's a competition? Hmm... perhaps that statement is even more accurate than you think...


SM: Secret agent, go!

Well, perhaps it won't be quite as exciting as some classic Mission Impossible action. But you will be showing off your range of talents!

I'm glad you like where this is going. Here's hoping you keep reading! ^_^


I love when a plot twist can be nothing more than changing plotlines.

#136: And you thought you'd never see him again.

Lots of stuff to say about this page. First, the title is a direct reference to Galaxy Angel. I don't think they ever actually succeed in their real mission...

Second, another sound effect. I spent several hours looking for a good picture of someone using a remote control, but alas, none was to be found.

And third, panel three is the very first picture in War of the Forums to not be from an anime series. (Well, aside from the covers, at least.) What do you think?

[Dark Sage]

Boy, and people say that MY work area is a mess!

I'm very curious to see what's on Martin's will, however. Even though I doubt he left me anything.

This could be very interesting...

[mistysakura]

Wha? What kind of person leaves a will in his VCR just in case? Was dh just paranoid? The desk made me laugh, but I thought it really didn't fit with the rest of the comic. Although it did have a lot of bright colours, so for a photo it worked relatively well. Liking the infiltration by Shuppet Master, by the way. I have a feeling he'll be using it for his own purposes as well though.

[Blademaster]

Wow, Martin drank almost as much soda as I do.

In a day.

[Gavin Luper]

Is that your desk, by any chance, Brian?

I liked Ada's conversation with herself, it was good. But I do find it bizarre that Martin would have left a tape of his will in the VCR before they left to charge into battle. That would imply that he knew, or suspected, he might be killed in the conflict ... or maybe he was just exceedingly paranoid. Or there's another reason.

I don't know what Total is. I could guess a cereal, but I'd rather feign nescience to avoid any hat-consumption.

[Asilynne]

Is that your desk, by any chance, Brian?

.

I was going to ask the same thing...I sure hope not o.o lol

Love this last one XD especially the desk part, its odd looking but not as out of place and one would think :>

[mr_pikachu]

DS: Hehe, tell me about it! That desk was one of the top finishers in a "messy desk" competition, so it's not surprising that it'd be a little over the top.

So you want to see Martin's will? Well, you may not feel the same way in a moment...

I do hope everyone finds this interesting. Otherwise I haven't done my job!


Ada: Haha... you'll see Martin's motivations soon! You're right that the desk broke the theme, but I'm using it as a primer for something later. Besides, I searched for a few hours without finding a halfway-decent anime pic to take its place, so there wasn't much of a choice. Sad, but true. Hopefully it didn't create too big of a problem...

As for SM's role, you bring up a good point. What's his motivation in all this?


Blade: I can relate to that, although it's usually not soda. I prefer water, myself. With the occasional limeade.


Gavin: Nope. My desk would have bottled water and Baked Lays. With maybe a couple of cans of Pringles.

Yes, Martin did have his reasons. As for what they are... I'll just let you read on. Why spoil it now?

And it's too bad that you didn't assume Total was a cereal. Now I'll have to ask you another question to get you to much some caps. Such a pity.


Asilynne: Nope! My desk has healthy trash!

I was hoping it would have roughly that effect. It needed to be an attention-grabber; otherwise the panel would have had no point. But I'm glad the desk wasn't really detrimental.


So you want to see more of this mysterious video, huh?

#137: No late fees, and no returns! It's better than Netflix!

Note the continued use of TV scanlines. The VHS format is outdated, after all. The guy could've at least left a DVD will...

[Asilynne]

ROFL I love how he goes off on a tangent in his own supposed will XDDD Shes probably like oh you old bastard are you ever going to get to the point?!
This is my new fave episode <3

[Gavin Luper]

Huhuhu ... I really liked this page, Brian. It just started off so eerie. Anyone talking on a video after they've died is creepy enough, let alone when they're talking ABOUT their future death. (Follow that train of thought and you get an Anzac Biscuit.)

Was Martin kidding when he asked what they were doing in his room? Obviously they would be going through it if he were dead ... Hmm, anyway, Ada doesn't look entirely impressed. But at least we got to see Martin again. And we now know where his movie collection is.

Oooh. What happens next? *grabs popcorn* *which does not go well with Anzac biscuits at all*

[Blademaster]

"Get out of my room, damn it!"
~Dead guy

That's officially the best quote in fiction I've ever read. You win the Internet, a nomination for Best Quote at the next FF awards, and a 'Blademaster-can't-annoy-you-for-one-day' ticket to be used at your discretion.

Try and duplicate or reuse it in any way and it'll explode. Just a warning.

[Mega Horny]

woot go me

[Crystalmaster Mike]

#133: DS seems to be getting a perverse satisfaction from pushing MH to his physical limits... as long as he doesn't neglect his basic sanitary needs...
Apparently, the word isn't sanitarian...

#134-#135: Hey wait, was he waiting for MH to pass out? Why couldn't he hear of the infiltration of MoP's quarters / cabin / other place he residents (residues? takes residence?) in.
So, SM is like Brian, but then evil? Where's the difference?

#136: From one dangling plotline to the next...
It would be funny if the end of the video was taped over by some random nonsense (possibly Brian's).

#137: "Get out of my room, damn it!" Heh, he lost his original line of thought there, it seems. Will he ever get back to his will? Will we find out who gets the movie collection? Will this happen before Ada loses it?

[mr_pikachu]

Asi: Hehe, thanks! Wow, that went a lot better than I expected. I was worried that the comedy wouldn't come across very well. Glad it was effective!


Gavin: So you liked the mood change, huh? Yeah, wills can be pretty creepy. I imagine that writing one is a very odd feeling. It's like, "What do I want to say to them when I'm dead?" So, yeah, I get your point. Biscuit!

Maybe Martin didn't expect to face an adversary like Jay. (Although it was really Kiyone who killed him with that cheap shot, I suppose.) Or maybe he had another reason for that little ramble. Either way, you've gotta love comedy, right? That's what I want my will to be like. One final joke for good measure.

Oh, and I loved your description of the Anzac things as "patriotic biscuits," Gavin. Right on!


Blade: *starts laughing* Haha, awesome! I'm really glad you liked it, Blade. Good timing, too, because we're due for the next Fanfic Awards shortly.

As for the voucher, I'll treasure it. And yes, I seriously plan to use it. Just have to wait for the right time to unleash its stifling powers...


MH: Go you, indeed.


C-Master: Oh, c'mon! Wouldn't you enjoy having a veritable slave? And nobody really needs anything, we just want things.

I wouldn't necessarily say that DS was waiting for MH to go unconscious, but it does present a nice opportunity to get other work done. And to take a nice, long lunch break. As for the difference between SM and mr_pika, good question.

How I love those dangling plotlines. I'm like Tarzan, swinging from one to the next. Aaaayeeeaaaeeaaahhhh!

Yeah, Martin's gone slightly off-track. But maybe he'll get back to it soon. Don't lose faith. Yet.


If you watch this tape, then in seven days... you'll still be watching it.

#138: First she's a scavenger, and now she's a disturbed rebel? Ada just can't win.

One has to wonder if Martin actually has anything useful to say.

[mistysakura]

Argh, the suspense! It's interesting that we're getting such an insight into Martin's personality after his death. His character's too good to waste. Such paranoia! "Get out of my room, damn it!" "Tell me about your mother..." As if an infiltrator would start talking to a video. I really liked the scanlines, it shows a lot of attention to detial (either that or your pictures were screwed up to begin with, heh). Question: what are my hands pressing against in frame 6 of #137? Looks like a window. Guess it could be the screen?

[Blademaster]

I think she was raising her hands in a surrender-ish fashion, Ada. I'd do the same if a dead guy started yelling at me. XP

That last panel scares me. Ada shouldn't look like that.

STOP LOOKING LIKE THAT, YOU SCARY BITCH!

[Gavin Luper]

Martin's character now is kind of like Dumbledore in the seventh book. Not that that means much to people such as yourselves, Brian. But yeah ... we're kind of getting a look at a different side of his character, but in a good way. He's a bit eccentric, it seems. Heh. It was funny to follow his verbalised train of thought as to who his audience could be and what their intentions were. Though Ada may get pretty pissed pretty fast.

I'd congratulate you on your use of suspense to keep readers hooked, but I have this weird feeling you might already be aware of it.

[Crystalmaster Mike]

Martin's character now is kind of like Dumbledore in the seventh book.

In danger of getting the book spoiled - I still have to read it; don't shoot me for it! *ducks* -, I will have to comment on that. It's strange to note how Martin has joined the lines of the old, gray-bearded wizards whose presence still reverberates after they're dead.

Hmm, if I was Ada, I'd find the Fast Forward button on that VCR. Quickly.

[mr_pikachu]

Ada: Yeah, I figured there was a lot more to show of him, so why not give you one last glimpse? I hope you've enjoyed the bit of enlightenment. Yes, I did intentionally add the scanlines; I'm glad you appreciate it! I'm considering continuing that to help identify future TV shows, even when they're not in VHS format... what do you think?

As for the hand thing, that was originally a window. But I was hoping it could be interpreted as a TV screen. ^_^;


Blade: That works too.

Ada certainly doesn't look too pleased. Then again, would you be happy if a videotape tried to play psychiatrist with you?

Though I wouldn't call her names if I were you...


Gavin: Don't blame me! I have the book; I just haven't had time to read it! Too busy trying to entertain all of you... should you really complain about that? Yeah, I am enjoying this little revelation. Although it must be frustrating to people who just want him to get to the point.

If you think Ada's mad now, just wait...


C-Master: Haha, you and me both, Mike! Yeah, very few people can still make such an impact after passing. In Martin's case, he's using his power to be annoying.

I'll bet Ada would hit fast forward if she didn't have to confirm every word on this last will and testament. Somebody has to do it.


Will the madness ever cease?

#139: If Martin wasn't already dead, Ada would kill him.

This is why people shouldn't write their wills on the fly. It just doesn't work. Except for the animals.

[Crazy Elf Boy]

Hehehe, Smiley town. Good on ya Martin. Anyway I also want to know who the hell makes a 2 hour video will that includes nothing but crap in it?. Another question is if Ada thinks it is bad, why is she still watching it?

[classy_cat18]

I'm surprised that TV isn't riddled with bullet holes by now. Press the Fast Forward button, for crying out loud!

[Sike Saner]

#134: Wow, Mega Horny crashed hard. o.o Well, six hours of taking a d--I mean, nonstop training--will do that to a person. XP

#135: I wonder... will Shuppet Master succeed in installing that tracking bug, or will someone catch him in the act (or prior to it)? o.o

...Or, by this point, maybe I should be asking if he has succeeded. Me and my (lack of) punctuality... XD;

#136: The third panel depicts a scene that is only about, oh, two or at most 2.5 shades messier than my computer room. I kid you not. XD

#137: Martin's video will is frelling hilarious. XD And the scanlines are a nice touch. ^^

#138: Another brilliant last panel--Ada's face there matches what she must surely be thinking as she sits through a video that goes nowhere fast. XD

#139: Well, Martin finally got back on track, I see--only to go and say THAT. XD Ada's reaction is appropriate, as well as priceless. XD

Um... I don't wanna seem rude, but... How can I put this in the nicest way possible...

...Don't you have ANYTHING else to do? I mean, first the Milestone Topic and now this? ......I mean... Like... Dude...! ANYTHING?

[Crazy Elf Boy]

Now, now ,now thats not like you at all Blademaster.

Mikachu is just a very (very, very, very, very,very, very, very, very, very, very) deticated TPM'er

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

I'm sorry, Blademaster, but I have alrerady received some PM regarding the milestone topic. And I am planning a repentance, I won't do like that again.

And this case, it's a spoiler, you can skip it, there should be no harm. At least that's what I thought. But if I had posted the list in parts after every single mr_pikachu's reply, then it would have been OK, wouldn't it? And note that I originally wrote it just for myself but then I asked mr_pikachu if it's okay to post it. And one more thing, how else could I have done a summary? I may be short of ideas, but this is the way I use TPM.

EDIT: OK, I was wrong, perhaps I should have written a shorter summary, this is more like analysis, as mr_pikachu said, but at least I didn't write so long comments on each page.

And thanks for the compliment Crazy Elf Boy!

[Blademaster]

Agh, lay off, both of you! How much longer do I have to post on this site before you guys figure out that 92.43676764523564691568934% of my posts are not serious?

[Inferno_Dragon]

Yes, yes, I haven't replied to this fanfic in a lonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnggg
ggggggggg time but I have had my reasons.

I can't remember which section I last posted and even if I did, I
wouldn't respond to every single one after that. My hand would
probably get cramped up.

This fanfic has not disappointed me. With all its twist and turns, its new characters popping up and its hillarious situations, this fanfic has to be one of the best ones I have ever read.

Now for a question, I am sure that someone asked this question before (But I am being lazy right now and don't want to scroll through every post to read the answer), this is my question or questions;

1) Why did you decided to write or create a fanfic like this? It is interesting fanfic but it is unusual unlike the other around here.

2) How did you create this fanfic? I know that fanfic is consider a comic strip but how did you create the comic strips for each chapter or section (or whatever you call it)?

Anyways keep up the incredible work, mr_pikachu.

[mistysakura]

Groan... there has to be more than that! It reminds me of this video I saw of a joke with no punchline, but with the joke-teller just teasing the listeners on and on... Hmm, what's up with the animal shelter in Smiley Town? *insert conspiracy theories*
