Game: Invisible Friend - Now playing round 47.

[Jer-oh-me]

Gabi's IF says

Ah, it goes with an 'i'. Thanks for letting me know, but you didn't have to mark it in red.
Sorry, I'll use blue next time.

I know that many words that have an 'i' in Spanish are written with 'y' in English, while some others keep the 'i'. It's hard to know which ones are which.

Have you noticed how people here seem to be taking sides in some kind of war for/against proper spelling and grammar? What do you think about it?
I tend to stay away from that kind of open warfare.

[e_voyager]

i don't think photos count.

[Jer-oh-me]

The1Kobra's IF friend responds

From VSMIT's invisible friend

Dear Invisible Friend,
"Welcome To The Forum, And Have A Nice Day!"?
And I'm pretty sure almost everyone here started over the edge.  Why didn't you?

That's no mystery. it's an turning test.
I was around the corner in a mews when they started.

From Jairus's invisible friend

I'm here... sorry... tricky weekend. I'm back!


Dear Invisible Friend:

Sorry, I meant to ask whether I've ever been your Invisible Friend?
What's your favorite film genre?
Do you play video games?
What webcomics do you read?
The pie is apple. And the pie are squared.

i'm so sorry, Jairus! i sent my answers days ago
but our host never got them.

i know this won't make up for it, but here's something i drew for you.


sorry if it's ugly, i drew it in a hurry.


Sorry, I meant to ask whether I've ever been your Invisible Friend?
ah, ok. that makes more sense.

What's your favorite film genre?
it depends on the film. i could say fantasy but i've seen some terrible fantasy movies.
(do i get anything from using the words 'film' and 'movies' in one sentence?)

Do you play video games?
sometimes.

What webcomics do you read?
DMFA, CVRPG, PF, DD, GC, VA, TIA, AD, TW, FF and others. Oh, The Capitals Are Back! (But
They're Going Overboard Now.)

The pie is apple. And the pie are squared.
And so... all grammar was lost.

[llearch n'n'daCorna]

Just out of interest, when is this round finishing?

[Gabi]

That's a good question.

Dear IF, could you please send me an image made by yourself? Or, if it's going to be a photo, at least make it one of something you have created. Like a sculpture, or even a handwritten poem like the one Cog sent me once.

[e_voyager]

i think i asked that a few days ago with my last batch of questions

dear invisible friend.

have you seen my question?
what has become of this round?
is it time to go?
why is tv no fun anymore?

[Jer-oh-me]

E's Invisible friend writes

E_voyager's questions were...

dear invisible friend.

yes i need to test them for chaos power absorption.

can you help me?
are you truly ready for chaos?
what do you know of chaos control?
do you have a shadow?
did you know how much longer they game will run? (there was a 4/5 day gap i believe)


dear invisible friend.

have you seen my question?
what has become of this round?
is it time to go?
why is tv no fun anymore?



My answers are...


Dear Visible Friend:

Sorry, things came up. I'm still alive, however! At least... I think so... I'm not sure.

Oh, then test them. Do so right away!
How do you need helping?
No.
Not much.
Yes, I do. Unless you're talking about hedgehogs, in which case, no, I do not.
Um... hm... no idea.
...
Yes, I did.
It had descended into MADNESS!!!! Or Sparta. One of the two. I don't know. This might be a tricky time of year for a contest like this.
Go where?
I don't know... but it makes me sad when I watch older stuff like Freakazoid or Batman (and Justice League, that was good too) and think about how far TV has fallen. It's not nostalgia.

[Noone]

Dear invisible friend:

Wut doo u doo 2 peeple hoo intenshunaly mispell wurds?
Does it make you angry?

Dear Invisible Friend, do you like cold logic? What about warm logic?

I don't know why some say goodbye and others say hello. Do you?

Have you ever had a conversation with a science teacher on the subject of existentialism?

Have you ever gotten this feeling of Deja vu?

Have you ever gotten this feeling of Deja vu?

Have you ever gotten this feeling of Deja vu?

[Gabi]

Where has Jer-oh-me gone?

Unless he has a good explanation I think he should refrain from trying to host any future rounds.

[e_voyager]

i take it that he's still offline and has not checked his mail in a while. i had a theory about my invisible friend not i've forgotten it all again. if you like i'll host next round.

[Noone]

He is probably having internet issues again... I'd say give him a few more days. Speaking of which, do we have any non E-mail or PM ways of contacting him? I don't think so... maybe that should be something future hosts should have, just in case.

[llearch n'n'daCorna]

He sometimes shows up on IRC, but not since the 29th.

And he said something about his Internet playing up, or something.

[Jer-oh-me]

Hi guys, I'm back, I just moved with my family to a bigger place about twenty minutes away from where I used to live, just got internet back today. Should not, repeat, not be any more weird interruptions. I wasn't exactly expecting the move to come quite that soon.

Anyway, gonna put up the last couple responses and then we can do the guessing. Wait for this post to be editted.

Okay, The1Kobra's IF hasn't responded, so I suppose we can begin guessing as soon as they send me their picture and final responses.

[Gabi]

Welcome back, Jer!

Er... don't you have any answers to post? I know at least 1 person who claims to have sent you something.

[Jer-oh-me]

Welcome back, Jer!

Er... don't you have any answers to post? I know at least 1 person who claims to have sent you something.

Nothing new. I apologize to whoever it is, but I don't have anything new. I could check my spam.

Aha, Jairus's invisible friend has actually sent me something that ended up in spam, sorry!

I'm here... sorry... tricky weekend. I'm back!


Dear Invisible Friend:

Sorry, I meant to ask whether I've ever been your Invisible Friend?
What's your favorite film genre?
Do you play video games?
What webcomics do you read?
The pie is apple. And the pie are squared.

ah, ok. Sorry.
it depends on the film. i'd say fantasy but i've seen too many bad movies of that genre.
(i've used both words films and movies. is the world coming to an end? i hope not.)
yes, but i'd rather not talk about them right now.
DMFA, PF, CM, DD, AD, FF, VA, GC, TW and others. Oh, look, the capitals are back!
What's With Everyone Using Bad Grammar These Days? (Ok, The Capitals Are Exaggerating
Now).

And The1Kobra's IF has sent me their answer!

dear the1kobra
Wut doo u doo 2 peeple hoo intenshunaly mispell wurds?
Does it make you angry?
i dunno its wierd

Dear Invisible Friend, do you like cold logic? What about warm logic?
cold logic is cold warm logic is strange

I don't know why some say goodbye and others say hello. Do you?
beatles reference

Have you ever had a conversation with a science teacher on the subject of existentialism?
yes quite often it was fun will talk at more lenght later

Have you ever gotten this feeling of Deja vu?
yes

Have you ever gotten this feeling of Deja vu?
no

Have you ever gotten this feeling of Deja vu?
perhaps

The1Kobra's IF needs a bit longer to get their picture in, but hopefully won't take long.
Well, sorry for my own delay, here it is!


Apologies to E and his invisible friend, I don't know why this kept failing to show up.



Also in apology to VSMIT and his invisible friend, I had to find where the disconnect was on those images.



And Gabi's invisible friend sends this second picture in the stead of the Dr. Strangelove image

[Gabi]

Shall we post our guesses now?

[e_voyager]

i'm back and i guess if we're guessing The1Kobra's ( if it's Gabi then kismet is against me)

[Jairus]

I guess The1Kobra as well.

[VSMIT]

I'm guessing The1Kobra.

I hope at least somebody gets this one right...

[Gabi]

Ok, then I'll jump on the bandwagon and guess The1Kobra too (because that was going to be my guess anyway).

Maybe everyone was imitating him? (At least he won't be able to guess himself and will have to guess someone else. I think I know who his IF was.)

[e_voyager]

well one of us will be right but it won't be me.

[Noone]

Hmmm, my guess... well, I guess since I've been a popular pick, I'll guess myself

Hehe, joking... hmm, I think I'll guess VSMIT.

[e_voyager]

nice try but i'm pretty sure VSMIT was mine.  the picture was not what i would expect of Gabi you are more likely to go with the robot pun if you were my invisible fired ( i maintain my guess of The1Kobra as my IF by the way) i don't remember Jairus's art enough to be sure what he would send and i don't think anyone else was playing this round

[Jairus]

If Jer-oh-me does not return by say... Sunday, should we simply post who our Visible Friend was and if they won?

[e_voyager]

i won't be here Sunday i'll be here Monday though.

[Jairus]

i won't be here Sunday i'll be here Monday though.

Well, I just used Sunday as an example (I'll actually be really busy Sunday myself). But Monday works too. Really, we could do this any time.

[Jer-oh-me]

Well folks, Gabi & The1Kobra are the only two to get it right. And somebody please take over for me! I at least now fully appreciate how much effort this is.

[VSMIT]

Please list everybody and their invisible friend, so that we can know who we actually had.

[Jer-oh-me]

Okay, here goes.

Gabi had The1Kobra as her IF. Gabi correctly guessed that.
The1Kobra had VSMIT as his IF. The1Kobra correctly guessed that.

E_Voyager had Jairus as his IF. E_Voyager incorrectly guessed The1Kobra.
Jairus had Gabi as his IF. Jairus incorrectly guessed The1Kobra.
VSMIT had E_Voyager as his IF. VSMIT incorrectly guessed The1Kobra.

Thanks for playing and being patient with me, I'm in for the next game.

[Corgatha Taldorthar]

I'll give it a shot for the next round methinks. As a player, not a host.
