Yes, but don't worry. You were horrible before hand too.

Is it awesome in there?

Lets pretend A= Awesome, C= Cool, and L= Lame, then...
If A=C-L(There) then yes, it is awesome in there.

[e_voyager]

some times i feel like my questions are being ignored. is this really what's happening?

[Gabi]

How doth the little crocodile keep it shining tail?

Assuming you mean 'its' shining tail, all it has to do is make sure it doesn't get cut off.

No.

[Suwako]

If I wrote a book about a movie would releasing that book before the book is shown in theatre be a copyright infringement on a sunday afternoon after 11 o'clock?

[Lushin]

Well I'M so sure people would care about a book shown in theatres, but if you use the exact storyline with the same characters then yes you can get in big trouble.

[e_voyager]

one last question before bed. what is the answer to this comic?

[Gabi]

This comic.

[e_voyager]

when will the hall of fame be updated for round 48 of IF?

[Inumo]

Where should one go to play a game of Werewolves of Miller's Hollow, and create a collaborative story composed of ten word posts?

EDIT: Additionally, where would be the most apropos place to make a battle of the plot points, and is it acceptable to refuse to use the term "furry" to describe an anthro fan?

[Gabi]

All signs point to 'yes'.

You can start games here at the Arena. And you can use whatever word you want as long as your interlocutor understands what you mean.

do we have enough players for a new round of invisible friend?
if so who's hosting this time?

[Roureem Egas]

Man, it's been a while since I've been here. I should at least come in once in a while and make sure I keep my place here!

do we have enough players for a new round of invisible friend?
if so who's hosting this time?

...well crap. I'm incapable of providing a serious answer here.

[Gabi]

...well crap. I'm incapable of providing a serious answer here.

Then play Invisible Friend.

I'm really busy now, but I can host starting on Saturday.

[e_voyager]

do we need to start a new Invisife friend thread?

it's already been a few weeks you see and I'm not clear on the necromancy rules for that particular thread knowing that some are immune .

[Darkdragon]

How can one improve the depressing morale when situations worsen?

[Gabi]

I think we can still use that thread. Assuming you mean "invisible".

How can one improve the depressing morale when situations worsen?

By 'improve the depressing morale" do you mean revert it or make it even more depressive? If the former, I recommend keeping in mind that better times will come, and remembering all the things you can still be grateful for, and also trying to find out what you can do to improve your own situation, and finding someone who can help you with that. If the latter, then shame on you, I'm not going to help you with that.

Why would anyone would want to do the latter option in your dichotomy, Gabi?

[Azlan]

Why would anyone would want to do the latter option in your dichotomy, Gabi?

Less scrupulous individuals may desire to worsen a situation or escalate it to the next level.  This could be for the potential for gain of some sort, to be spiteful, or for some type of bizarre social experiment.  Without context, it would be difficult to postulate anything more than these vagaries.  

[ShadesFox]

More often making depression worse is about getting pills or sympathy.  Usually both.

[Darkdragon]

How enlightening. Why is it that society will look towards these chemicals such as anti-depressants or something(s) less legal as an escape route from reality?

I blame quantum chemistry.

[Darkdragon]

Being an outsider to the field of quantum chemistry, can you explain the connection?

[ShadesFox]

The workings of the brain appears to be quantum chemistry.

[Gabi]

Quantum or not, people who resort to chemicals are usually looking for an easy way out of their problems, not realizing that they won't be getting one at all.

However, there are certain cases when depression is caused by a chemical imbalance, so in those cases incorporating the missing chemicals can help. But more often than not, people just take pills because they believe they'll magically make them happy, and they fry their own brains in the process without ever achieving what they wanted.
