New name for the site

Drawerkid2 — Thu, 14 Aug 2008 12:18:07 GMT

well, I was brainstorming a new name for the cause.. well... I don't like the name blazingmanga(no offense zano). Here what I came up with.

OCS=Online concept studio

I pick this name because it true to our purpose. You come here to work on your concept in our studio while on online. If you have a better name post it here.

Game plan?

Drawerkid2 — Sun, 10 Aug 2008 08:33:07 GMT

We used to have a game plan, we have thought of way to get more people to come here and keep them occupied but alas it seem that plan has failed. We have lost most of our members aither because they're busy, bored, or just found another way to do their manga. To tell the truth there is not much going for this place, don't get me wrong I still want this place to go somewhere but it seem we need to think of a better way of getting members. Look at other forum they have stuff that says this place ...

Ninja humor

Defiant_We_Stand — Wed, 04 Jun 2008 09:33:47 GMT

Here is where we pool together jokes specific to the ninja episode.

1. Since ninja seem to have their own version of Hammerspace, but with moderately sized Items (where the hell do all of the throwing stabbys come from?). Dr is going to push that a little bit, with at least one brick, toaster, and irate cat.

Ok I'm going to start a discussion on one of our official volumes. The Sport Story.

Dr. and his team are going to join a sports tournament in hopes to win the Grand Prize: A Planetary Death Laser...Not sure why that's a grand prize for anything but Dr just got lucky I guess. We're going to invent the sport here. For lack of better name it will be called Deathball. The basic inspiration is dodgeball and that's about as far as I've gotten (something we all can pitch in on). There will be training ...

It seems like this month topic is how to improve the site. Ep, Zano, me and more have been thinking of way to promote the site. I have been thinking about some stuff.

First thing on my mind is the site itself, should we move now? I think we should change the domain now instead of later. I know it not my call to make but think about it. We move now and we may not lose any members but if we move when we have a lot of members we could lose a lot members, members who could be working on projects ...

Super Smash Flash 2

Kriven — Wed, 30 Apr 2008 23:03:53 GMT

For those who don't know, Super Smash Flash was a Smash Bros fangame made to play in browsers. It wasn't all too good, but it was very entertaining.

http://www.smashflashdojo.co.nr/

Now there's a sequel, and from the demo I played, it felt much better then the first one. Also, the characters aren't bound by legalities, so anyone with sprites is in 8D

Hope this is as great an idea as I think it is...

The goal for this thread is to come up with jokes based on cultural confusion of our world, through the eyes of manga characters.

Here's an example of what I mean:

A fairy from Seiken Densentsu listens to hiphop for the first time. After hearing EI! by Nelly and St Lunatics, she remarks:

"Gross! Why would anyone make suckers from Manna-cured toes!"

Anyway, try it out yourselves. You might have fun, and get to understand ...

Defiant_We_Stand — Tue, 08 Jul 2008 09:06:21 GMT

Of course you do. Now, this manga is all about breaking the rules of anime and manga...or poking fun at them...or ludicrous explanations as to why they exist, so on and so forth. If you are offended by rooting for a crappy villain, cliche plot twists, small demons dry humping someone's face, or using homosexuals as clubs, then you suck and don't deserve to read this.

They left the stuffy air indoors for the backyard garden in search of Mrs Reid.

She was a keen gardener. Her hands were often cut, grazed or dirty from work with her vegetables, roses and herbs. Sneaky dirt fingerprints often found their way onto her face, her neck and even the back of her knees. She enjoyed the open air, only entering her house to clean, sleep or eat when she wasn�t working. Today, however, she was no where in sight.

It was near silent. No rustling of leaves. No traffic ...

It was the morning of March 23rd. The sun had begun to peek above the horizon. At the trees whispering with the wind. At the chorus of birds calling for its warmth.

The light swept through the town of Gimston. It shone off the corrugated iron and terracotta tiled roofs. The town�s surrounding bushland awoke in a faint orange glow.

At the white wooden number 14 house of Kynastan Road, the morning�s breeze passed through an open window on the second floor. The gumtree by the window rustled ...
