Game: Invisible Friend (Sign up for Round 53)

[Suwako]

Dear IF,

Rawr?

[Gabi]

Dear invisible friend,

How much time do you take to answer questions normally?
Would you want to change that?
Why or why not?
Explain movie! Explain!
I was frozen today?

As much time as I need.
No.
Because it's the perfect amount of time!

I doubt it, or you probably wouldn't have asked me...

Dear IF,

Are you by any chance entitled to being called an idiot at certain
points in time?
Why, were ( or weren't) you?
Are you by any chance entitled to being called a genius at certain
points in time?
Why, were ( or weren't) you?
Are you by any chance entitled to being called a furry at certain
points in time?
Why, were ( or weren't) you?
Are you by any chance entitled to being called a deviant at certain
points in time?
Why, were ( or weren't) you?
Are you by any chance entitled to being called an apple at certain
points in time?
Why, were ( or weren't) you?
Are you by any chance entitled to being called  lazy at certain points in time?
Why, were ( or weren't) you?

Yes.
Because I can be at times.
No.
Because I don't think I am.
Yes.
Because I like anthropomorphic animals.
Yes.
Because I don't really care to follow certain aspects of what society
generally expects of people.
No.
Because I'm pretty sure I'm a human.
Yes.
Because I tend to be when I get the opportunity since I do like to
relax every now and then.

Gift from Dekari's IF:



Now everyone get back here and ask questions!

[e_voyager]

dear if.

do you where you sunglasses at night?
what type of tree are you sitting beneath?
are you avoiding me?
do you need some more twine?
how about a new coat of varnish?
what oil do you use when you get and oil change?

[Inumo]

Dear IF,

You've fallen off the map. You still there?
You have a broken clock that, like any proper clock, uses gears. What do you do with it?
B-b-b-bird... Finish the line, if you dare.
Mint or capsaicin?
Zombies or death?

[llearch n'n'daCorna]

Should I? Who should I be writing to, then? Who were you writing to anyway? If you're not playing, how can you have an IF? Wait, does that mean I'm imaginary? I'm confused.

You probably have another VF you should be posting to. Or you chose not to play the game.

I wasn't posting to anyone, since I'm not playing. I'd be more than happy to converse, and to play for that matter, if only I had more free time during the week. Heck, I still haven't caught up with the Haunted Ballroom from four months ago, now. :-/ Speaking of which, I should go read some of those...

I shouldn't have an IF, but for some reason, whenever I post, IF's appear out of the woodwork (figuratively speaking, that is - I don't think I've had a woodworm as an IF yet, although I could be mistaken) and respond. The main reason I post is that it seems to get everyone else posting as well, and that's good for the game as a whole - even if I'm not playing. Go figure.

I don't think you're imaginary at all. Unless you're a figment of our Beloved Leader's imagination, in which case I guess Gabi is my IF. ;-]

... Oh, wait. I should save that for later, shouldn't I? ;-]

[Gabi]

llearch, you have to play if you want to guess.

I think we're all a combination of how we imagine ourselves and how others imagine us. In a way, we're all imaginary. But we're also real because there can be imagination without someone doing the imagining. Hmm... I hope that's not too confusing. I did say over 11 years ago that imagination is the only unquestionable truth.

I think I'd better get down to the answers. Starting with an imagination-themed reply.

Dear IF,

What's your favorite number?
Why is it your favorite number?
What are your feelings on numerology?
What are your feelings on dendropyrochronology?
What is your opinion of me, if any?
What is your opinion of you, if any?
What's your email client of choice?
What's your music player of choice?
Have you ever used a manual typewriter?
What is the largest computer that you have used?
What's your favorite movie?
What's the last movie that you saw?
What did you think of it?
What do you think of my questions?
Do you think there are too many?

Deary Tytaj,

i
Because it's imaginary, like me!
Uh, neutral.
Ditto for that.
Plead the fifth!
Plead the-- wait, what?
I'unno. What's yours?
Whatever has my music at the time.
Yes, actually.
An old Compaq.
Don't have one.
Tangled, I think...
T'was good.
Meh.
Considering I got daunted by it, yeah, kinda.

By the way, have fun with the image. I call it "Failing with MS Paint."

Why Fibre's IF has called Fibre Tytaj is beyond my understanding.

Dear IF,

Rawr?

Yip!

dear if.

do you where you sunglasses at night?
what type of tree are you sitting beneath?
are you avoiding me?
do you need some more twine?
how about a new coat of varnish?
what oil do you use when you get and oil change?

dear e_voyager,

Going with ''wear = where''; No, I normally don't.
I never checked.
Just because I don't spend every second of my LIFE being your loyal servant? You've got to give me some space!
That and quite a bit of long overdue maintenance.
I'll pass.
I'd take anything that doesn't kill me.

And since we're at it I'll post a little thing I made during last round.

[Dekari]

Dear IF,

Nice picture, though now it makes me wish I were on a beach now.  It's getting way too cold.


What's your favorite season?
Least favorite?
What's your favorite holiday?
Least favorite?
Any big plans for Christmas/New Years?

[Gabi]

Thanks, E. And sorry you didn't get one from your IF this time.

Dear IF,

Pages of random are always fun! Now to moving on.

I don't believe I asked this, so what's your favorite music genre?
A guy slaps you with a glove. How do you respond?
Instead of rubber... Napalm. Please respond.
Also, I'm still curious about your response with the room.

Guess that wasn't too many questions.

Dear VF,

I don't believe I asked this, so what's your favorite music genre?
I don't think you have either.  I mostly stick with rock and such.

A guy slaps you with a glove. How do you respond?
Punch him in the face, point at him and yell out, "Self defense, he started it."

Instead of rubber... Napalm. Please respond.


Also, I'm still curious about your response with the room.
After the weekend I had, I'd be willing to wait around for someone else to open the door and then strangle them with the piano wire.  Then take the bat and a table leg and fight my way out or die trying.

You've fallen off the map. You still there?
Yes, but a combination of work, holidays, and power outages have eaten away at my time.

You have a broken clock that, like any proper clock, uses gears. What do you do with it?
Get it fixed or buy a new one.

B-b-b-bird... Finish the line, if you dare. tongue
But how can I finish the line if I don't know if you have heard the word?

Mint or capsaicin?
Mint

Zombies or death?
Either is fine, I'm working on becoming master of both.

Dear invisible friend i know you busy but if you have the time do you think you can answer these as well?

dear e_voyager

Yes, very much so.
Any color is fine, really.
At the mist of dawn.
Call me whatever you wish.
You'd like me to tell you that, wouldn't you?
Maybe, maybe not.

Dear IF,

Nice picture, though now it makes me wish I were on a beach now.  It's getting way too cold.


What's your favorite season?
Least favorite?
What's your favorite holiday?
Least favorite?
Any big plans for Christmas/New Years?

Summer
Spring
Don't really celebrate them
See above
Work

And so, Round 51 has come to an end! Everyone may post their guesses now, although E's IF can't win.

[e_voyager]

wait if that circles animated thing wasn't sent by My IF who sent it? who was it for? i need to rethink who i've decided my IF is now that i don't know what i thought i knew

[Dekari]

I'm going to guess my IF was Tytaj.

[Inumo]

My guess is Dekari, mostly because that's a new writing style.

[Gabi]

I sent that image, E. But I was thinking of you when I made it, so we can say it was for you. It wasn't from your IF, though. Sorry if I made things confusing.

[e_voyager]

No Problem Gabi it may have throw me off my game a touch but before that i was all but certain that i knew my invisible friend identity i even joked with them a bit as to weather or now i would guess correctly for the fun of it.  through out this entire game my most probably IF has been Dekari but that would be boring. i was playing or going with either Tytaj or Inumo as my guess. it could be fiber but i estimates the chances of that to be low. the art work seems to be from tytaj and Dekari. i don't know Fibers style enough to guess which if are or his the same with inumo. i really should go with Inumo even though i would think that he's someones else's friend i won't say who since they have yet to post there guess. instead i'll guess Dekari. this guess has an 70% chance of being wrong but i'll stick to it anyway. once everyone else as guessed i'll post my list of guesses just to see how close i was 

[Suwako]

Fibre.

[llearch n'n'daCorna]

I know I can't guess because I'm not playing, but I'd like to suggest that Gabi was my Invisible Friend. Which is a shame, because the rest of you ought to have got into the swing of things as well. ;-]

[Fibre]

Hmm, I think I'm going to go with Inumo. 

[Gabi]

OK, let's see...
-Dekari mistakenly guessed Tytaj. Dekari's real IF was e_voyager.
-Inumo guessed Dekari... correctly!
-e_voyager made a long and confusing analysis but ended up guessing Dekari. Unfortunately his IF was Tytaj.
-Tytaj guessed Fibre, and he guessed well.
-Fibre guessed Inumo, and he was also correct.

Congratulations to the winners: Inumo and Fibre!

[e_voyager]

well it seems i was wrong and tytaj was my invisible friend. i think i'm out of practice with this but it was a fun game. anyway i'm up for the next round but how do we decide who's hosting?

[Suwako]

Congratulations to the winners: Inumo, Tytaj and Fibre!

I can't win since I didn't do the picture.

Sorry for that, e_voyager... I forgot... <.<

[Gabi]

Oops! Sorry, and thanks for your honesty. It would probably have taken me until tomorrow to notice.

As for who hosts, I don't mind hosting again, but if anyone else wants to, that's fine too.

[e_voyager]

that's fine with me Gabi. i'm in for next round if you don't mind

[Inumo]

I'll play again.

[Dekari]

I should have gone with my first guess.  I had a feeling E was my IF due to the "sayian" bit.  But, for some reason I though you were a gamer and the answers to the gameing questions threw me off.

And the "immortal words of Socrates" came from the line said Val Kilmers charector after being asked "What are you doing?".  The full line goes,  "Self-realization. I was thinking of the immortal words of Socrates, who said, '... I drank what?'"



Also, I'm sorry for showing up, playing a round, and then running off again...but I have recently become short on free time and will be unable join the next round.  Maybe the one after that I will have time again.

[Gabi]

E: why would I mind?

Dekari: it's OK, you have nothing to apologize for.

OK, it seems I'll be hosting again. Now we need more players.

[e_voyager]

i haven't played a new game in a while. in face i've only played a small section of the rpgs in existence

[Fibre]

Yay! First time I have actually won.

Provided the next round doesn't start until the 27th or so (will probably be pretty busy until around then), I'm in again. I'd be happy to host it as well since I have not yet and the regular hosts should all get to play as well...

[Gabi]

OK, you can host if you want. Of course you'll have to check for answers everyday. Do you know how do access the randomizer and the Photobucket album?

Oh, I'll be away from the 26th to the 30th. I may or may not have Internet access, but in the best case I still won't be online more than once a day.
