The wonders of education
I just wrote a 4 page long essay for econimics on a word that until a week ago, didn't even know existed. Its things like that people take for granted. I'm learning new things all the time, and don't even really notice.
RE: Pico Day
Yeah, tomorrow will be a fun day. This year will be much better than last years because it wasn't recognized as much last year since it was mainly advertised in the BBS, which most of NG doesn't go on. But now that people have seen the day and there is more talk about it and mroe posts about it, we can expect even more animations.
Pico day is almost like Clock day. Everyone votes 65, exepct on Pico day, the flashs are worth the 5.

I didn't give any position on it. I shall be dicussing it as an argument and coming to a conclusion based on research and analysis.
And are there reasons to actually debate that, for example, is that important to anyone?
“No animation film that is not non-objective and/or non-linear can really qualify as true animation, since the conventional linear representational story film has long since been far better done in live-action”
W. Moritz
Moritz says that unless it's non-bjective and/or non/linear, it doesnt even count as animation.
In my opinion there are practical reasons for animating instead of filming something and aesthetic reasons.
As in we, as amateurs, have the means to animate a short cartoon but may struggle to film the same scene with live action - that's a practical hinderance.
Equally, we could use a different style of animation to tell one story compared to another because the style would fit it better.
That's about all the choice we have. However a large studio could choose to make a live action film or an animated film if they thought the story would fit the medium better than live action.
I realise all you guys are animators (and coders) so might not even consider live-action but some simple animations could be filmed, and would have a different look, but would tell the same story - for better or worse.
Anyway, some comments along this vein of thought from people would be good. I might be able to use it in my presentation if you come out with some intellectual sounding comments. I am doing it in approx. 18 hours.

Roughin' It
I miss understood the question I guess. I thought it was all about sleeping in the street for some reason. I have slept in the mountains...
I was up in the Catskills and got ridiculously drunk and mad the biggest ass of myself in my entire life. I also got to throw up bile which I learned was bright yellow.
Haircuts
I've had long hair about 3 years? I'm pushing four years depending when I actually reached long hair. I always consider cutting it in the back of my mind, but once it's gone it'll be a good 6 months at least before I ever see it again. I'd hate to think that in that time I find the girl of my dreams who has a fixation on long hair, a trait I'd no longer have.
I'll probably cut my hair when I want to get a real job, a job that doesn't include being a janitor at a bunch of schools over the summer.

Left/right to move rope, up/down to make longer/shorter. Tell me what FPS you get ;)
Also, do you have any ideas for how to make a game out of it? ;), I'm stuck :P

20-21.
Make it into a game where you're an octopus and you have to run around eating fish and squirting ink in peoples faces. And also, theres a random stickman with a red square attached to a rope in the background. That would rock!

This should be smoother.

Make a game where you have to lower a guy/spy/delivery man into a building without hitting things or something, and deliver a packadge/retrieve a package.
Or maybe you are controlling a crane that that rope is attatched to and you have to drop a packadge or something.

Haircuts
I swear this topic comes up at least once a week. Stop that.
Although, while we're on the topic, I have a friend who's growing his hair long and he looks like a complete twat with it. For some reason he seems to think he's sexy - he's noticed the girls looking at him but he hasnt noticed them laughing. Imagine Mr Bean with shoulder-length hair.

AS3 Effect
I thought that too, Sonx, but even clicking like crazy, I can't seem to slow it down. It has to garbage collect every now and then, but that happens. You'll see it in games like Fancy Pants Adventures.
Artist Participation
I made a post but the n00bs fucked it up >:(
Anyways, I pretty much need some art help. I have an engine and story laid out, I just need an artist to come fill in some art work for the cutscenes, character sprites, etc.
FBF
The term FBF is moronic. Its over used and in the wrong fashion. I wonder if everyone knows that fbf stands for Frame By Frame, which is the way animation was originally done. The only reason there is even a term floating around for it is to differentiate between tweening, which is just an option in flash to make simple shape movements easier. FBF doesn't mean those movies with lines flying around everywhere and saying "omg i just did this fbf" isn't a big deal because its like saying "omg i just animated." So it pisses me off when people use the term fbf for any other purpose than saying something wasn't tweened.
shit

I agree.
Some people just don't know what it actually stands for, and if they do they don't really think it out.
i use fbf most of the time actually unless I want to use something that is so obviously a tween.
Because if you fbf something you can always go back to a specific frame and change something which makes it usefull.

THAT IS AWESOME. I say definitely go for the crane type deal with moving and stacking packages or something. This little engine you got here is so great, it makes me want to draw everything for you always.
