10/19/07 [#42] - Looks like the start of the next Wizard of Oz movie

So can we assume from this that they didn't know Jigsaw was going to be on Last Resort? And Jason shaves fast.

I don't know if the real Jigsaw will be around this weekend, she's at a convention, but I'm definitely going to have to donate some money in response to that awesomely corny new donation button.

I like HRH's shirt.

And Jason shaved too fast. He missed a bit. ;-]

Wait...so what happens to everyone else? Are the four executioners the only players in the show now? If so, what the heck are they supposed to do?
I'm confuzzled

Execute the losers?

llearch n'n'daCorna · October 20, 2007, 05:18:55 AM

Actually, I was wondering about something.

"First captain" ? Does that mean that there may be more than one? It's fairly obvious that the executionees are allowed to execute back at the executers, if you'll excuse the clumsy phrasing, so it might be that that it's referring to.

Or I might just be reading too much into it. ;-]

That's what i was thinking...but I didn't know if that was right...

stiletto · October 20, 2007, 04:45:50 PM

I think it'll be something like the executioners are the ones given weapons or something, and they play a series of games with the non-executioners.

As for the first captain, I suppose I could make a guess, but I don't really have any idea. Crazy reality shows and their crazy rules. Hopefully we'll find out in not too long.

Presumably, it becomes something like The Running Man.

The reason why the executioner thing confused me, really, was becasue I thought that they were already chosen...
I thought it was, they had a bunch of criminals, then brought in some contract mercs to try and kill them...

It'll make sense in a few weeks, honest. Or at least parts of it will.

stiletto · October 21, 2007, 07:09:16 PM

Geeze, a few weeks? So does that mean if we give you like $100 we'll get to find out Wednesday? (As per your little battery incentive)

Not quite that quickly; I just mean the stuff's already in the buffer. I can't say which page for certain, obviously, but it gets covered.

AndersW · October 22, 2007, 10:33:03 PM

Could you add a link to the forums from the main page plz. I keep having to track it down through DMFA.

I intend to ~~harass~~ request from Darkmoon a forum button ASAP. I would have done so sooner but he was out of town when I last asked, and the way he did the other buttons isn't obvious enough for me to do it myself without it looking weird against the others.

Really, you could argue either way.

I already asked, just in case you were wondering.

Can't hurt to ask politely again, though. ;-]

stiletto · October 23, 2007, 09:46:57 AM

Heheh, I like the second battery that has magically poofed up, and the surprised look on Jig's face. Do you think we'll get one of those extra updates tomorrow?

llearch n'n'daCorna · October 23, 2007, 09:52:12 AM

I expect so. We'll see. I suspect Jig will have to make mention of the update in her LJ, either now or on Saturday...

Or both. *shrug*

People still read my LJ? Or do ya mean the blog?

And yeah, I need to post soon... this was just the earliest I could make the new counter image. I really wasn't expecting it to work so quickly.

llearch n'n'daCorna · October 23, 2007, 10:41:12 AM

Either-or. ;-]

In the laptop.

(Ironically, I DO have two laptop batteries... I ordered a replacement a few months back as I was concerned about the battery life of the laptop. It turns out to be 'only' an extra hour's worth of life compared to the old one, but there's still a few cases where having equivalent batteries is useful (say, if I'm going somewhere where I 'need' the laptop but can't reliably depend on an external power source).

stiletto · October 23, 2007, 08:57:04 PM

QuoteThanks to that, we've got two bonus updates to do. One goes up tomorrow, because this particular fan was eager for his fix, and the other goes up next Wednesday

You make it sound like you're peddling some kind of drug. I'd like to think of myself as being a little better then sitting in the corner, shaking uncontrollably. I need my fix! I need my Last Resort... Give it to me, no matter what the cost! I'll mug all the little old ladies I need...
