Also I still have to figure out how to set up our e-mail accounts on the new host.

@  furrykef : (24 July 2015 - 08:19 AM)

As soon as I figure out how to restore it. Sorry, I know I said it'd be done by now, but I didn't expect to have to put up with this DNS crap and other issues that popped up.

@  Uncle Ben : (24 July 2015 - 07:56 AM)

So when's the black theme coming back??

@  Uncle Ben : (24 July 2015 - 07:56 AM)

"Should"

@  furrykef : (24 July 2015 - 07:27 AM)

That DNS took longer to propagate properly than I thought it would. *Now* we should be back for good, though.

@  furrykef : (23 July 2015 - 08:48 PM)

Or it might be because Bluehost *finally* got around to that server wipe (one week after we'd asked for it) and that wiped out our DNS settings. I'm not sure which and I don't really care. In any case, we've severed our last ties with Bluehost, so this will not happen again.

@  furrykef : (23 July 2015 - 08:08 PM)

Looks like Bluehost yanked our DNS since our hosting account expired. That's why the site went down a while ago. But as you can see, it's fixed now.

@  Misk : (23 July 2015 - 04:55 PM)

No, they do not.

@  furrykef : (23 July 2015 - 04:27 AM)

The goggles do nothing?

@  Misk : (22 July 2015 - 05:50 PM)

My eyes.

@  furrykef : (22 July 2015 - 12:24 PM)

Looks like forum uploads might have been broken since last night. That should be fixed now too.

@  furrykef : (22 July 2015 - 01:33 AM)

Heh, whoops! Server went down for a few mins when I borked the config. Looks like it's back up now.

@  Uncle Ben : (21 July 2015 - 09:09 PM)

It looked like a napkin

@  ILOVEVHS : (21 July 2015 - 09:04 PM)

Fan-fuckin-tastic.

@  furrykef : (21 July 2015 - 08:25 PM)

As for the beaver picture while the forum was down, I think Tim drew it. On a napkin.

@  furrykef : (21 July 2015 - 08:24 PM)

No kiddin' about that "Finally!", Shadow. I am *so mad* at Bluehost for never responding to our support ticket. I submitted it early Friday morning and they *still* haven't answered it!

@  Uncle Ben : (21 July 2015 - 06:37 PM)

Maybe he did that himself

@  Shadow : (21 July 2015 - 05:25 PM)

Say, who made the cute picture of Beaver Chief?

@  Shadow : (21 July 2015 - 05:24 PM)

Finally!

@  RedMenace : (21 July 2015 - 05:02 PM)

Woooo! The site's back up! Three cheers for Kef!

So one of things I find myself doing a lot when watching a show or movie based on other medias such as games or comics, I often ponder what my favorite characters who were omitted in this media would be like if they were there.  Mostly I try to imagine what they would be like/doing if they were part of the story and expand from there but that’s just the way I do it.  
What I want to know is what your favorite characters would be like in the Medias they didn’t appear in.  What would Snively be like in Sonic X?  What would Rotor be doing in Underground?  How would you do Bunnie’s Backstory if she appeared in the Games?  What would Sonia and Manik be like in StH (assuming they don’t appear in StH because I only ever got to issue 30)?  How would you portray the Wisps from Sonic Colors in SatAM?  
Basically recreate the characters in the other universes.  You can write them into scenes of the comic/movie/show if it helps you view them.
 
Example: 
Sally Acorn in Underground.
In Underground the Hedgehog Family was the Royal Family that Ruled….whatever Kingdom Underground takes place in.  So as a reverse effect, the Acorn family would be average citizens.  Thus for the most part, the Acorn Family was generally ignored by Robotnik’s take over, causing Sally to grow up with a mostly average life.  Since she wasn’t a princess, she likely would have let her tomboy side out more often, spending a lot of time being more skilled in here mechanical and computer abilities but being less so in her Strategic abilities, but for the most part being a jack-of-all-trades.  Being raised by good parents she wouldn’t be quite content with Robotnik’s rule and have a strong desire to do something about, specifically after the many injustices she sees.  Being skilled with computers she likely joined the Underground Freedom Fighter Movement when the chance arose, likely operating as a field operator, providing on the job computer and tactical advice for operatives.

Not bad, I suppose. Though how do you explain the statue of King Acorn in the first episode? He's clearly wearing a crown, and he must've been an important figure to have a statue of him erected in the city park. And the Destroyer flying overhead and demolishing it seems to suggest that Robotnik must've overthrown someone to take control of Mobotropolis. Just curious.

Back on topic: I've always wondered how each character would exist in different timelines/universes. I mean, was Queen Aleena an alternate version of Bernadette Hedgehog, or just another hedgehog entirely? If so, maybe in the Prime timeline, she was Rob O's royal mother in Mercia; whereas in the Underground timeline, she married Jules and gave birth to Sonic and his siblings instead.

Another thing to consider in the Underground timeline is that the Great War never happened (in the episode "Artifact", the professor says there hasn't been a war prior to Robotnik's takeover in over a thousand years). Since the Great War brought most of the Freedom Fighters' parents together, how would they've met in different conditions? Did they even meet at all? Do they have the same parents? It's these "What if..." scenarios that makes them so fun to ponder over.

Perhaps he was an old leader or maybe their grandfather in some way?


Some say that he knows 2 facts about ducks, and both of them are wrong. And that 61 years ago he accidentally introduced Her Majesty The Queen to a Greek racialist. All we know is, I'm going to the tower now to have my head cut off, and he is called The Stig.

Actually thought of that.

 

Either at one time the Acorns were in power, or he's just another Ruler who just happens to look like Acorn.  

 

My Reasons lay in the fact that Aleena is established as the Ruler of Mobius and Argus (that's his name right? Captain of the Royal Guard) worked directly for her.  Which either means the Acorns are no longer in power or never were.  The lack of previous wars for thousands of years may have had something to do with it that people didn't rally behind the Acorns might, but perhaps the mystical powers of the Hedgehogs (or whatever their family line name is).

Okay, seriously why has no one posted here? This is great for brainstorming! Who knows what kind of crazy s*** we can come up with here! I'm bringing it back. Now, this bio I was gonna use for Red's latest RP, but decided against it because this character could be too OP and would have to be used carefully in an RP setting.

 

Silver The Hedgehog in SatAM

 

Unlike the Time Traveler from The Future, Silver in this continuity is from the present trying to Time Travel and undo the damage Robotnik has done. His parents dying right in front of him, the mental strain was too much and unleashed his Psychic Powers. While he can move objects with his mind he has yet to perfect his powers (meaning he can't fly like he could in Sonic Generations). A Naïve and kind young man with a strong sense of justice, Silver does all he can to save others despite his powers pushing others away due to fear. Ever since learning of The Legendary Time Stones and Time Travel itself, Silver has become obsessed with them and the concept. He seeks them out to put a stop to Robotnik's Coop from ever happening, and to mainly save his parents from their deaths. Optimistic at what he sees as His Heroic Quest to Save The World, Silver does not realize the ramifications and consequences that could arise.


Seriously, HOW THE HELL did nobody know that Robotnik was evil!? I mean just look at those red, glowing, hellish eyes, oh yeah I can completely trust that guy with my life! *sarcasm*

*peeks head in*  Did someone say alternate realities?

 

TBH, I thought it would have been a good idea for the Hedgehog Kingdom and the Acorn Kingdom to be allies within the same universe.  Would definitely help explain how Sonic and Sally became friends...well, better than the idea of King Max and Uncle Chuck being friends, which felt kind of contrived without the royal connection.  (At least, in my opinion...)

 

Actually, I could see Antoine as a royal guard for Sonic's sibs as well...and (unsuccessfully) trying to hit on Sonia in the process.

I think the games did that already by having her be sort of an alternate to Sonic.  In other words, she is a member of her own FF team in her own universe.

 

An alternative could be to take the Silver route and have her be from the future...possibly coming back to help prevent things from going "wrong" and helping the FF win a critical battle.  Or perhaps even be from an alternate future where Robotnik never took over...and things became WORSE on Mobius as a result...

 

With no Robotnik, Mobius lacked a single enemy to team up against and form bonds.  As a result, the old tensions from the Great War grew and spilled over into full fledged world war.

 

Just an idea, mind.  (Actually plan to use that alternate future bit in one of my own fics...which will involve the Gamemaster and the Doctor.)

M300X is a fan comic of mine taking place 300plus years after Sonic's time, where the Freedom Fighters are now led by Blaze and Silver to fight a fail safe Robotnik created years before.

You know you probably should have kept that to yourself and not said that out loud, right Red? That way we wouldn't have known the premise to you're comic and just figured it out for ourselves. :P

I had intention to present a few characters from Underground in a somewhat different way for fanfiction set in SatAM.  Here goes...

 

The Oracle of Delephius

 

In a prologue to my earlier fanfiction "A Hero's Birth" which I planned on re-writing, Johnathan Starlite, the father of my fancharacter Maxamillian Starlite, learns about Robotnik's eventual coup years prior to it by visiting the Oracle.  This sets in motion events that lead him down a path of ridicule for the next decade, with no one believing his claims.  You see, the Oracle of Delphius is a member of the now defunct Ministry of Magic (stifle the chuckles Harry Potter fans) which the king dismantled after Nagus's unexplained departure.  As such, people tend to discredit any information from oracles to be an attempt to find a way into the king's good graces.  Discrediting Julian, who at that point had helped the Mobians to win The Great War, seems nothing more than bitterness looking for a place to roost.  Of course, the prediction is true, but long before that, the oracle is driven off into exile somewhere far off.

 

Manic and Sonia

 

In a fic I was planning to fill in some backstory about another fancharacter I had created for "Enter Wildfire" I had intended to use Manic as a leader of a group of pick pockets.  Sonia would have played the role of his "main squeeze" and these two would obviously have had no relation to Sonic.  I never got very far in conceptualizing this story as it was around this time I sort of stopped a lot of my creative endeavors.  Still, these ideas could be of use to someone, or maybe i'll get back to using them myself one day.

Meh, it wasn't that big of a spoiler. You'd pretty much get the gist of it by issue two.

I'd love to see Shadow and Rouge in the Satam universe. Satam was pretty black and white(evil vs good)so it would be interesting to put characters who are sort of in between both sides in that universe.

That is true about SatAM.  Robotnik was strictly the only villain.  All the other villains connected back to him either being used by him (example: Ari) or been hurt by him and attacking the wrong people (example: Kraken).  Naugus wasn't even really a villain in his original appearance, because he left on friendly terms with the Freedom Fighters.  SatAM could have really used alternate villains or just other characters who weren't aligned one way or the other.  The only ones we got like that were the cannibal bikers, and we know how well that episode turned out.

Here's another thought. How would Cream and Vanilla the rabbit work in Satam? Would Cream be an orphan? Would Vanilla be robotized like most of the parents?

 

So much to think about.
