Omniverse One

This always happens. The scientists keeps stating again and again that it might be true and that they still need to verify it, and a lot of work still needs to be done to verify it. And, naturally, people respond as if it's all already confirmed. Dude, the article itself repeats that it's not yet co...

I stumped it repeatedly and pissed it off with Madeline.

Among its guesses were Angela Merkel, Amy Pond (probably thanks to the red hair), and Beren Saat (and this was after I answered "No" to Does your character speak Turkish).

Bad News: I've had my laptop looked at, and the guys at the service center could do nothing except reinstall the OS. This, of course, means that I'm going to have to reinstall several programs and drivers, which is going to take a while. Good News: It turns out that I had the foresight to save most ...

I am as pissed off as pissed off can be. I'm trying to restrain myself to prevent an all caps rant, so I'm just going to list my grievances in a simple bullet point form: > For the past three weeks I've been so busy I've had little free time to work on my drawings or anything else. > Now I finally d...

I like it, and the potential for cyberpunky pseudo-hard Mars sci-fi stories is cools. What WILL be the story, btw? UPSIDE DOWN SPACE BAYLOR Well, the basic story is that Tyler's grandpa, Thaddeus, is pushing to turn the Mars colony from isolated research station into an actual colony with actual fa...

God, that's a lot of parts. Hell, that thing looks like it has more parts than both my old aircraft carrier models and my German destroyer model combined, and then some.

Two questions:

1. Around how many parts does it have?
2. Does it need any detail painting afterward?

A joyous birth anniversary to thee, speaker!

The Mars colonization is supposed to be an international affair, so I figure I'd include astronauts from different countries. This one is...

Hey, I'm more than game, speaker. Roach and all the related Skyhavenite characters should do quite nicely for what you have in mind, as well as Shroomy's sky pirate chicks. "Great that you saved the casino from the alien hordes, Jurgen, but since you were busy I just went ahead and bought Las V...

Rest assured, the marketing department of the Thoth Conglomerate and the other private space companies have that idea covered. :mrgreen: Also, an addition: http://fc05.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2011/155/a/6/old_people_contest___update_by_mpcp13-d3i0lq3.jpg I drew space-suited Tyler and figured I'd combi...

In the original present-day setting he was supposed to. His current characterization doesn't thanks to future!medical science, but does walk with a very slight limp that's not so noticeable on lower-gravity Mars.

Part of the contest is not just drawing old people, but pushing the boundaries of one's artistic aility. In my ...

I've been seriously thinking of finally settling down to write a long-term story idea instead of getting inspired by bursts of ideas every now and then, only to lose interest later. I decided to do so by going back to my sci-fi roots. I'm planning to write an anthology of stories set in some unspeci...

Done March of this year, actually. Although I didn't officially graduate until the ceremony on the 27th of April. Why?

Apparently the guy who runs that Badass of the Week site has another book coming out, and the fellow copy editor sitting right beside me is editing it. Lucky her. I'm stuck with some Pennsylvanian miner's incoherent memoirs. @Magister: How's the local economy around your parts, Magister? Is it still...

Yup. I bought it at Data Blitz.

Guess what game I just bought?

You better have a lot of money then. In vanity publishing the aspiring author has to shell out cash to purchase publishing services. The cheapest package here (no editing and cheap, black-and-white design templates) costs $449 dollars. The basic package (pretty much the cheaper one, but with more ma...

holy crap Does this mean you might get to proofread Stlart Suade's Smarmageddon ? :mrgreen: Balls said lieutenant Ike Ong! Way I heard it, he's abandoned the series and getting it published after some guy did it for him without his blessing. Although, proofreading that would be no where near as bad...

Good news: My shiny corporate paycheck is so very delicious compared to what I used to earn. Bad news: Dear gods, so this is why self-published stuff is so reviled. Copy editing crappy manuscript after crappy manuscript day after day is enough to numb the mind to near-zombiefication. This place acce...

Happy Boots-day!

Although, huh, I am again reminded that Booted is younger than me.

Um, get off my lawn?

Well, it died before I could truly flesh it out. I really only fleshed out these two (spoilering so as not to take too much size): Outsiders – The Twelve: Ogatta Common local nickname(s): Grey Goblins, Goblins, Greys, Saucer Riders Description and soi-disant name of home world: Yanfin, the Ogatta’s ...

I think that's an interesting concept, but how are we going to interact? Feud over 'neutral' Earths that developed without any life on them? Fight each other with portal terror attacks? What did you have in mind? My old Points of Intersection universe had a similar premise. There were 12 parallel E...
