No, not really. Oh, but you have the DVD? Is the movie good? I've got Hogfather (not here, unfortunately) and I really liked it... um, anyway...

I hope you get well soon, llearch. Take care.

Hello, dear invisible friend. How are things going on your side of the world?

Do you know who your VF is? I don't know who mine is yet, Jairus seems to have forgotten to send me the PM. :(

What are your thoughts about the dynamics of this game?

Quote from: Gabi's IF
Things are going ok over here. Thank you for your concern.

How else would I know whom to send this to?

They're an okay method for pushing the beast along I guess.

Quote from: The1Kobra on December 17, 2008, 01:12:28 PM
Dear invisible friend....

I had some questions about lying... (grins)

Would you lie if it meant saving someone's life?

Would you lie if it got you a lot of money on the spot?

Would you lie to get a close friend out of trouble?

Would you lie to get yourself out of trouble?

Would you lie to prevent hurting someone's feelings?

Quote from: The1Kobra's IF
Yes.

No.

It depends on the situation.

I don't think so.

Only if I don't think that someone can handle the truth, or if it's really important for
someone I care for.

What about you?

Quote from: VSMIT on December 17, 2008, 03:45:42 PM
Dear Invisible Friend,
How are you?
Are you in school?
How would you rate your job, if one exists?
If I told you to look for more questions later, would you stick around?

Quote from: VSMIT's IF1:Pretty Good
2:Yes
3:Yes
4:Amazing
5:Yes, but many a head games may be played depending on your question

Quote from: Basilisk2150 on December 17, 2008, 12:30:14 PM
So, i guess i'll start with the first question...
Invisable friend on a scale of 1 to eating babies, how would you rate your current job?

Quote from: Basilisk2150's IF
what side is good again?

Quote from: Basilisk2150 on December 17, 2008, 09:48:47 PM
well, before we get updated, i guess i'll try a few more questions
Invisible Friend

what kind of music do you like?
what kind of movies do you like?
if you were given 10 million dollars to move to another country, where would you go and why?
would you consider yourself a person of principals, morals and/or conviction?
Lastly, how satisfied were you the last time you ate fast food, Extremely, Somewhat, neutral, Somewhat not, or Extremely un-? and where did you eat?

Quote from: Basilisk2150's IF
what is that newfangled noise that you were talking about? that's not music back in my day we had real music and it was good.
moving picture? not can't say that i do. too expensive for good look at something you don't really want to see. they have no heart no a days. back in my day a movie actually told a story. it was all shoot and blow up the other guy. it was about heart and substance.
i say that the moon is looking pretty nice but i don't think ten million would be enough. are theses loonies, tunnies or American dollars anyway?
please speak english or some factsimily there of. i can't understand what youre asking otherwise.
it made me want to put the restaurant on fire. and i don't remember where it was called.

Fear invisible friend,

What is your favorite word?

Do you enjoy reading?

Do you own a car?

If yes, how long have you owned a car? If no, what do you do for transportation?

Do you see your parents on a regular basis?

Apples or oranges?

Paper or plastic?

Guns or blades?

Red or Blue?

Speed or power?

Quote from: Jer-oh-me's IFFear invisible friend,
I don't think there is a need to fear me.

"Agathokakological", most definably.

I do.

I don't.

I use mass transit. It's fairly convenient where I live.

Regular enough.

Apples.

Depends on what task is at hand.

Guns for functionality, blades for looking badass.

Purple

Speed, usually.

Quote from: Corgatha Taldorthar on December 17, 2008, 01:12:55 PM
Dear Invisible friend,

What is your favorite work of art?

Are you in school?

What is your favorite DMFA strip?

Have you ever played this game before?


Best wishes,
Corgatha Taldorthar.

Quote from: Corgatha Taldorthrar's IFDear Visible friend,

I don't know it's title but the surrealist painting of a man in a bowler hat with an apple in front of his face ranks highly.

Yes.

Thus far, I like them all too much to choose.

Yes.

Best wishes,
Invisible

Quote from: Gabi on December 18, 2008, 06:57:41 AM
Dear Invisible Friend, how many times?
Is Darkdragon trying to stir up trouble with his questions?
What is a "person of principals"?
Why does The1Kobra like lies so much?
Do you think it would be possible to guess people's identities by the questions they ask?
What do you think about the long lists of questions?

Quote from: Gabi's IFAs many as are necessary, of course
I don't know, I try not to speculate about other people's intentions.
A person who asscociates with senior school officials.
heheheheh, now *that* would be telling
Of course
They provide more material for guessing the identity of the invisible friend.

Quote from: The1Kobra on December 18, 2008, 01:54:34 PM
Dear invisible friend:

Do you like to be independent? 

Do you tend to dwell on the past?

Do you forgive easily?

How fast can you type?

Have you ever been in a fist-fight?

Quote from: The1Kobra's IFYes, it's nice.

Sometimes. Ok, often.

If the person seems sincere and it doesn't become a habit.

I can type this fast.

Yes... but it always escalated to more than just fists.

Dear friend with negative index of refraction:

Respond to any 5 of the following :):

• 
  Which modern scientific development fascinates you the most and why?
• 
  What are your thoughts on the current economic climate?
• 
  Choose one ongoing political dispute and explain (briefly) what are your comments on it.
•

• 
  Do you find modern-day movies worth the investment and why?
• 
  Write a short narrative no less than two pages describing the journey of myself finding you, the Invisible Friend.

Quote from: Darkdragon's IFDear he who light bounces off of instead of refracts around,

I think that the development of the microprocessor is the most
fascinating because instead of being a single discovery, like those of
chemistry, it is constantly being revisited and revised, not to mention
the fact that microprocessors have changed the world as we know it.

My thoughts are ideas.  Oh, you wanted my opinion on the current
economic climate?  You should have asked that, instead.

[...]

[...]

[...]

Ask them who wrote their book of beliefs.  And for proof that it was
actually God who wrote it.

The originality of my favorite genre.  Most of the newer genres or even
newer pieces as a part of the older genres are becoming too repetitive.

[...]

[...]

    During the course of this round of Invisible Friend, you will ask
many questions.  These will give me many paths to walk down, and a few
will lead right to you.  All you can see is a figure in the distance,
but you cannot make out exactly who it is (although even if you could
see my face, you may not be able to tell that it is me).  It is my job
to make sure that you do not ever see my face.
    I will not finish answering this question now, but will add on a new
paragraph for each question set I answer.

This will prove to be fun.

Quote from: Corgatha Taldorthar on December 18, 2008, 01:08:48 PM
Dear invisible friend,

What sorts of computer/console games do you like?

What is your favorite book?

What is your favorite color?


What is your favorite movie?


How many of these questions do you think I can keep coming up with?

Do you get annoyed easily?


What do you think of my method of greeting new members to our forum?

If you can't decide what your favorite DMFA strip is, can you at least give me a favorite character?


Best wishes,
Corgatha Taldorthar.

Quote from: Corgatha's IFDear Visible friend,

Most kinds.

Depends on the genre and sub-genre, I don't tend to think of anything as an absolute favorite regardless the traits of other things.

Green, Black, Blue, Red, in that order in diminishing order.

Again, the same answer holds true here as for books.

Given sufficient time I suppose that it's theoretically possible for you to max out at Three-thousand Four-hundred Sixty-nine separate questions.

I have no opinion on that matter.

Abel.

Best Wishes,
Invisible

Dear invisible friend

i think you put a dent in my Armor... offs just a smudge. any what was was talking about the gay hare. i've never know him by another other name and i know that you are not gabi now.

was it really necessary to strike out like that?
do you like video games?
how many apf's are playing this round?
has something positive  traumatized your inner child?
do you like tea?

Quote from: e_voyager's IFProbably not, but it sure was fun. :P
Depends on which game, some are agonizingly painful to play, I tend to stay away from those.
Define 'apf' please. Is it one of these? http://acronyms.thefreedictionary.com/APF (http://acronyms.thefreedictionary.com/APF)
I wouldn't say 'positive'.
No herbs in the tea here. *whistles*

Quote from: Jer-oh-me on December 18, 2008, 07:10:17 PM
Dear Invisible Friend,
The Fear bit was a SNAFU on the part of my Wii that I didn't catch, but found funny.

What does 'Agathokakological' mean, or more accurately, how would you define it?

Strawberry or Watermelon?

Mass transit? Sweet, that's how I get around, in addition to my bicycle. Subway system?

Up or down?

Catsup or Ketchup?

Flammable or Explosive?

Fish or Poultry?

Quote from: Jer-oh-me's IFYou type this on your Wii? What about your computer?

Agathokakological means "composing of both good and evil".

I like strawberry blends :)

Yes.

In space, there does not exist any notion of "up" or "down".

Ketchup.

Inflammable.

Depends on the fish, really.

Dear Invisible Friend,
If you don't mind, what is your job?
What are you studying in school?
What is your opinion on how Darkdragon handled his questions?
Do you think I'm asking you mindless questions, or do you think they have some higher purpose?
Explain your reasoning behind your decision in the previous question.

Quote from: VSMIT's IFvisible friend
Currently i'm a ref for a rather interesting
i am studying things in many a subject at school

Wow, this round is active!

Dear Invisible Friend, are you celebrating anything this month? If so, what and how? (Not that I know the players so well for that to be a hint, but it would be nice to know either way).

What's your opinion on the creatures so many people carry on their signatures?

What drink(s) do you like best?

Do you like roleplaying? If so, what kind of characters do you like playing? If not, why not?

Do you have a job? If so, how do you feel about it? If not, do you have any plans to get one?

Quote from: Gabi's IFI try to duck out on celebrating as much as I can, eggnog and lighting candles aren't really my thing.

Some of them are cute, most of them are distracting.

Aqueous ones

Yes. What sorts of characters I like to play tilts towards what sort of mood I'm in at any given moment

I do. It's nice, albiet a bit aggravating, patience has never been one of my stronger suits.

Quote from: e_voyager on December 19, 2008, 05:57:27 PM

is is true you've never read something positive (http://www.somethingpositive.net/sp01122004.shtml)?
do you like to cook?
why do you have a case of Whoop--- in your closet?
Dan and Matilda or Dan and Lorenda?
Kria or Aaryanna?
is it time to life the dream of life?
who took my muffins? they were made fresh for me by RJ.
you you want this AWS bat that i took form mega man while he was in prison?

Quote from: e_voyager's IFNo, I haven't, but thank you for showing me something that will probably give me nightmares for a week or so.
This happened to me the last time I tried, I'll leave it to your interpretation:
[insert attached image here please]
I don't, all I have is a tear in the fabric of reality that destroys everything that comes near it, it's kind of nice I suppose.
That's not my call I'm afraid.
I think Kria is a better character, she has a lot more depth to her than Aaryanna has.
I think another part of my brain just died.
I did. Don't worry, you didn't miss anything special, they weren't made well.
I think my current armaments are more effective.

Dear invisible friend:

Do you follow politics?

Do you keep up with current events?

When you make plans, do you dislike random complications or enjoy them?

What do you tend to do on your spare time?

Do you consider yourself principled?

Quote from: The1Kobra's invisible friendIn a way, sort of.

Some of them, yes. No one can keep up with all of them.

I dislike them. They crop up too often. But it's true that sometimes good things result
from them.

I spend most of my spare time multitasking. In fact, that's what I'm doing right now.
This game is one of my tasks.

Yes. But wouldn't everyone say that?

Quote from: e_voyager on December 20, 2008, 05:05:27 PM
dear invisible friend

Aws means adaptive weapons system. it's a bat that mimics other weapons form sword to flame thrower to  bombs and missiles. it's a very effect tool for weakening you opponent. but remember having more ammo then good won't defeat anyone. it's just weakness them so you can hit them with a water balloon and run away.

you ate my muffins?
how are you still alive?
didn't you know that RJ's muffins are explosive?
i don't think anyone knows why then explode but one of then totally demolished a tree hose tree included and the tree was a few decades old.

my question not meant to kill your brain it was typo-ed. it should have read. : is it time to live the dream of life?
please respond at you earliness convenience.

is it centrifugal motion or  perpetual bliss?

does it set the world in motion?

statement "i'm on top of the world ma!"

what makes you feel like this?

do you know why i'm in the form of a catbot?

Quote from: e_voyager's IFWow, AWS seems highly impractical then, and overpriced.

Yup.

Like I said, they weren't made well, maybe he should have upped the dosage of cyanide.

Yup. *Belch* Feels good on my stomachache too.

Well, it did anyways. :/. Oh, the question.. well, apparently, I think I'm doing it all the time, whether I really like it or not, or I misunderstood your inquiries to an alarming degree.

Is *what* centrifugal motion or perpetual bliss?

I thought that was due to gravitational pull.

Query: Master... are you trying to confuse me? I must say that us HK series droids have very stable interaction modules.

I'm not a psychiatrist, sorry. I'll ask Freud once he comes back from the dead.

Dear Invisible Friend,

Goblins or Kobolds?

What are your thoughts about the $50 billion securities fraud that took place?

What do you like to eat? And to Drink?

Do you try to get a reasonable amount of sleep? Or do you have a tendency to skip sleep
cycles?

Do you like intelligent debates?

Have you ever broken into your own house?

Quote from: The1Kobra's Invisible FriendKobolds. The original ones.

I think it's a clear proof of what people can get away with if they have enough money and
power. It also shows that economy behaves according to what people believe rather than
logic.

I like many things. I don't think I could list them all.

I try to get a reasonable amount of sleep. Whether I can manage it or not is a whole
other story.

As a matter of fact, I do.

Sort of, once. It wasn't exactly breaking in, but it was finding an original way to enter
without a key.

Quote from: Jer-oh-me on December 21, 2008, 02:43:03 AM

Kind of fish? Okay, Sword.

What sort, if any, of socks do you prefer?

Wood or metal?

Apartment or flat?

Ballistics gel or shaving cream?

Metal...?

Aren't they the same thing?

The former.

Quote from: Darkdragon on December 19, 2008, 06:31:47 AM
Dear acquaintance possibly created from dark matter,

I'm intrigued by your approach to the last option. It will sure be fun to see how this pans out. :3

Well, I used the word "thoughts" because "opinions" may not include proposed solutions, exit strategies etc. But since you want to make such a distinction, what are your opinions and proposed plans of actions regarding the current economic climate?

I'll give you a break on difficult questions. What celebration close to the Solstice (December 21st) do you and/or your family observe?

Do you do anything special to observe the change in the commonly accepted Georgian calendar year?

Do you think my questions either stress you, or are too much of a chore to answer? If so, how do you suggest I improve?

Quote from: Darkdragon's IFDear Acquaintance made from real matter,

I think that all of the economic issues permeating from the US stem from
the fact that most people have been conditioned to look for instant
gratification.  Because of this, they jump into loans that they cannot
possibly afford in order to get what they want immediately, instead of
waiting and saving so they can afford it in the long run.  The only
thing that I can think of that might actually work would be to
completely freeze credit, but that would also tear down the economy even
worse than what is happening now.  The idea of partial government
ownership is a good one, because even though the national debt is higher
than it's ever been, there is next to no chance that the country will
fail due to the economy.

We observe Christmas, but not the "Birth of Jesus" Christmas, but the
materialist Christmas.

Recently, no.

I think your questions are better than some, since they make me think. 
I don't think there's a way to improve, but I think that your decision
to work your questions like this could have been saved for a round with
less eloquent people.

NEXT PARAGRAPH!

    With each question I answer, you take one step toward me.  Thorough
observations of my answers will obviously reveal who I am, but in this
round most of the people taking part have the ability to write to this
type of question.  Although it takes a bit of time for me to answer
these questions, they are also enjoyable.  This two page answer is
probably going to be what helps you to figure out who I am.  You hunt,
but I do not move.  I stay stationary, and hope that my answers lead you
astray.

Quote from: Basilisk2150's IF"Someone ate the baby it's rather sad to say
Someone ate the baby so she won't be out to play
We'll never hear her whiny cry

We'll never hear her asking, "Why, why, why?"
Someone ate the baby

Someone ate the baby it's absolutely clear
Someone ate the baby 'cause the baby isn't here
We'll give away her toys and clothes
We'll never have to wipe her nose
Dad says, "That's the way it goes."
Someone ate the baby

Someone ate the baby, what a frightful thing to eat
Someone ate the baby, though she wasn't very sweet
It was a heartless thing to do

Do you mean jetpack? If so, I would just try any open terrain with hopefully few obstacles and few people around to complain about pollution and property damage, aside from that, bring a parachute.

Quote from: Gabi on December 20, 2008, 11:05:31 AMThen what, dear IF, would you say your strongest points are?

I've just been talking in a chatroom and, after discussing a certain country's politics for a while, I found out the others knew nothing about my country. Has something like that ever happened to you?
What countries (or even continents) have you studied about?
What do you think of the current situation in your country?
And since we're at it, what -if anything- do you know about my country?

Quote from: Gabi's IFOh, most definitely being a parasite on social situations and talking out of both sides of my mouth at once.

I am ever astounded by the ignorance of others.

I've studied people as a whole, so one could say all of them? In depth? Quite a few.

It's not great, but compared to quite a bit of the rest of the world we're still sitting pretty.

República Argentina, in land the second largest country in South America to Brazil. Primary language, Spanish, although it is apparantly a different sort of Spanish than is spoken in Spain. Estimated population, 40.5 million, of which about 35% live in the capital of Buenos Aires.  That city itself was first settled by Spanish explorers I believe in 1580.   In more modern history, I know but that it is something of a chess center, and that Miguel Najdorf made his home there (and changed his name, it used to be Mendel Najdorf) after his home country of Poland was invaded. That's about all I know in hard detail, (Aside form the Falkland war, but that might be a bit impolitic to go on at length about) but there is quite a bit more I can deduce or guess, such as the government being rather left wing compared to my own, or that the sorts of cuisine that are popular would be a mixture of spanish foods in vogue in the late sixteenth and sevententh centuries mixed in with what the natives ate, and then with the development continued from there. I imagine that say, pastries with corn mixtures are quite popular, although that is just a guess.

The apartment or flat question was asking which one you use. So, which?

Have you ever had occasion to run a gas line in your home?

My hands are sore, yours?

Congratulations!?

Quote from: Jer-oh-me's IFOh. Apartment.

I have never had such an occasion.

Not particularly.

Er, thank you?

Quote from: The1Kobra on December 22, 2008, 08:40:13 AM
Dear invisible friend,

What are your thoughts on the bailout of the auto industry that was passed?

Do you get uncomfortable around crowds?

Do you like to keep pets?

Have you ever played D&D? If so, what are your thoughts on D&D 4.0?

What can change the nature of man?

Edit addition: Just out of curiosity, what would you do if you became an expert hacker
for a day?

Quote from: The1Kobra's IFI think I'm tired of talking about Bush.

It depends on the crowd and the situation.

Yes, I do.

Yes, I have. But that doesn't mean I have a formed opinion about 4.0.

That's a tricky question. I could answer what I think, or what I've heard or read other
people say. The former may be saying too much and I wouldn't feel comfortable with the
latter.

I'd take notes so that I could retain that knowledge in the future.

dear invisible friend

is everyone kung-fu fighting? if so why?
yes my jet is acutely part of my back. jet pack is good enough for it. do you want one?
i'm looking for someone do you have the 411?
do you know the muffin man?
am i repeating myself?

Quote from: e_voyager's IFno,
no,
I don't know what a 411 is, so probably not.
no.
no. Then again, I seem to be.

Dear Invisible Friend,
Were you on the forums during the days of The Nice?

possible, but not likely

What makes you say this?
If I told you that I did take only the information from the last question, what would you say to that?

Quote from: VSMIT's IFi was not on the forums during the days of the nice
i say not likely because your wouldn't get enough information for just the last question
i would say your probably not going to guess who your IF is then

Dear invisible friend...

What do you think of Uncyclopedia? (If you've heard of it)

Do you believe that computer games are a form of art?

Have you ever played chess?

If this is applicable, how have you found the process of applying for jobs?

Do you like to travel? Or prefer to stay close to home?

Quote from: The1Kobra's Invisible Friend
I think it's funny.

Yes, except that there's a lot of unoriginality and plagiarism going on.

Sort of. I never got to learn all the rules.

I found it mostly by talking to people. But I've seen some signs an e-mails with job
offers.

I like travelling, but not by bus. Buses are a necessary evil, but they're too
uncomfortable for my liking (not to mention their slowness).

Quote from: Darkdragon on December 22, 2008, 04:51:16 AM
Dear the one who is veiled in shadows:

How would you make an objective distinction between "eloquent" and "not eloquent" when regarding people?

What do you consider as being one of the higher aspirations in life, and why?

What is a social norm that you do not completely agree with and on what grounds?

The current economic model holds no regard for the resources which is required to fuel the economy. Since the extraction of resources will, in some way or form, damage the environment, where is the happy medium which you find between the two evils?

What makes a person a person?

Quote from: darkdragon's IFDear the one who is bathed in light,

Obviously it's impossible to make a completely objective distinction,
but I would say that the use of correct grammar conventions when you
speak and the use of correctly spelled words and punctuation when typed.

I think being able to teach is a pretty high aspiration because it takes
a certain kind of person to be a teacher and it is also a very noble
thing to do, donating so much of your time for the benefit of others.

I don't agree with the need to be thin and "in shape."  Changing your
lifestyle and your body just to meet the norms of everyone else is just
wrong.

Once we find a way to reliably create electricity, be it via nuclear
power or hydrogen cells, we should be able to allow the environment to
rebuild itself.  Once the world can break its dependence on oil and the
need to expand, it should be fine.  I understand that there are some
nations that sill need to expand farmland, and that it understandable. 
What is unnecessary is expansion solely to create a surplus.

A person is a person when they have the ability to make decisions,
regardless of how simple the decisions are.  Even an infant makes
decisions, but they are mostly composed of "Will I eat this, or not?"
and other such simple binaries.

No paragraph this time.  Next time you'll get two.

Quote from: The1Kobra on December 27, 2008, 11:52:22 AM
Nice picture! Though, Cobras are spelled with a 'C', though I'm spelled with a 'K'.

Dear Invisible...
I've prepared some hypothetical questions for you, I hope you don't mind..

If some random person you didn't know punched you while you were walking down a street,
then moved on, how would you react?

How would you respond if a poor, sickly looking person met you at a train station and
begged for some money?

If someone kept running up to your home's door, pressed the doorbell many times, and ran
away every time you came out, only to come back and ring the doorbell when you turned
away, what would you do?

What would you do if from a window(or something along those lines), you saw three men,
dressed up in black suits and wearing shades started to approach your home?

What would you do if during the middle of the night, you heard a loud scream?

If I used that picture you posted in either my signature or as my avatar, how much would
you want to hurt me?

Quote from: The1Kobra's Invisible FriendWell, that one's with a K. Are you gonna argue
with him?

I'd be surprised. After that, I dunno. Maybe shout or something.

I'd give them a coin if I had enough, and if there wasn't a queue of beggars waiting for
more.

Call Dr. Ink.

I'd look for aliens in the approximate vincinity.

I'd try to find out what happened.

It depends. What do I get in return? (OOC: not at all, just wait till the end of the
round, ok? I'm glad you liked it.)

What, in your opinion, makes a comic great? And a story?

Quote from: Gabi's IFDear Invisible friend, SOrry for the delays, I've been away during the holidays for the most part.

Quote from: Basilisk2150 on December 29, 2008, 12:07:56 AM
well, seeing as we've still got a few more days to go, i guess i'll try a few deeper questions

At birth, are humans naturally good, and learn evil, or are they naturally evil, and then learn good?

If it is taboo to kill in most major monotheistic religions... why is it that more people have died in the name of these gods, than any other cause?

do you have any pets, if so, what kind?

have you done something in the past 2 weeks that seemed awesome at the time, was probably a bad idea, but will now give you a great story for the rest of your life?

... i guess i better get back to the eating babies thing... since it seems to be my re-occuring theme... while replying to this, on a scale of 1 to eating babies, how drunk are you?

Quote from: Basilisk2150's IFillogical. at birth human are lava to which the concepts of good and evil do no apply

because ia m right and you are wrong. if you disagree then my deity will prove it can kick your deity to the curb

i'm sorry i can not answer that as i may lead to my detention

sure you  see it started off well enough when... i'm sorry but it seems that the story i was about tell you have been classified a national secret.

Quote from: Jer-oh-me on December 29, 2008, 06:08:30 AM
I liked Basilisk's idea.

Can you remember what the first online comic you read was?

Is your birthday within the next three months?

We're playing rock band, what position are you? Guitar, Bass, Vocals, Drums, Screaming Crowd, Impassive Objector?

Which of the pictures submitted the round did you like best?

Do you live closer to the Atlantic, or Pacific Ocean?

Do you like ZZ Top?

Waterballoon?

Quote from: Jer-oh-me's IFBob and George.

Yes.

Objector

I'd say mine, but if not, the cobra

Pacific

No clue what that is.

Excuse me?

Do you know what Zero Punctuation is?
If you do, which one is your favorite, if not, GO LOOK IT UP!

Thanks for playing.

Quote from: VSMIT's IFYes, i have, personally i liked 7 the most, though that's compared to trying 8 and 9 and i found that 7 just seemed more compelling to me than the other 2

i've only watched a few... so far i loved the saints row 2, left 4 dead and fallout 3 ones and between the 3, can't really choose a top 1

Quote from: Darkdragon on December 30, 2008, 09:54:59 PM
Dear one who stalks the night:

I apologize for losing Internet connection. There was a fierce snowstorm and we only got the connection back today. In time for the deadline.

Do you believe in coincidences? or Karma? Why or why not?

Attempt to define "Human" such that it distinguishes humans from other animals aside from biology.

Attempt to define "life" such that it contains all forms of life such from bacteria to humans but not include viruses and other life-like organisms.

Are you optimistic or pessimistic? Do you think it benefits or inhibits your social proceedings?

I'm going to ask about a slightly touchy subject and feel free not to answer this question if it really bothers you that much. Do you believe in free will? Everything which we do is dictated beforehand by the electrical signals which are whizzing though your brain about half a second before you think about preforming said act. In tested situations, the human mind is not in control (but is given an illusion of being in control) at least 40% of the time. And I believe in the clockwork universe theorem.

Which modern invention do you think you can live without, or else wish never was invented?

Which vice in a person do you despise the most?

Have you had fun during this round? Do you think you know who your IF is?

Quote from: Darkdragon's IFI, like God, do not play with dice and do not believe in coincidence.

Impossible.  Because if I simply say that we have a mind that thinks
outside of simple instinct, that also includes many higher mammals, like
dolphins or chimpanzees.  There is nothing that we can do that no other
creature cannot.  Oh, wait.  I just figured it out.  Ambition.  Other
creatures have ambition (e.g.: the ambition to become pack alpha), but
non have the ambition to change their ecosystems like humans have.  Or
to look to change their fates and fortunes.  Human: n. A creature
created of raw ambition, a hunger for power which can never be fully sated.

A creature composed of at least one cell.  I will assume that you know
what constitutes a cell.

Yes, to both questions.

I believe that "free will" is both a misconception and an illusion.

I really don't know.  I feel unqualified to decide what I could try to
live without.  Once something disappears, you discover that you can't do
without it.  It's just what happens.

I truly dislike (I don't like using "hate" or "despise") people who
lie.  It generally means they're hiding something, and I am one of the
types of people who prefer to have a person respond that they can't
answer than give a straight out lie.

Yes, I had a lot of fun, and I think I know who mine is.

By the way, sorry for not finishing the two-page essay.  Kind of got
caught up in everything.

Are people born naturally good, and then learn evil later in life, or are they born evil, and learn good?

On a scale of 1 to eating babies, how hungry are you while answering these questions?

Which way of thinking do you prefer "might is right" or "might for right"?

3. What's the weather like for you right now?  It's snowing here right now.
4. What kind of games do you like?  RPGs?  Sports?  FPS?

3. What's the weather like for you right now?  It's snowing here right now.

It's quite snowy up here, and cold. Still, I don't really mind it too much, I guess I've gotten used to it.

4. What kind of games do you like?  RPGs?  Sports?  FPS?

Well, I like RPGs. I don't really have a taste for FPS games unless I'm playing with friends... or I'm playing Painkiller where it's just so awesome to have a gun that shoots shurikens and lightning.

Are we going to have fun this round?
My brain's a little slow right now, because somewhere between two days ago and yesterday I got sick. Why don't we leave it at two... oh wait, one more!
The weather here is cold and foggy, currently. What's the weather currently like where you are?

Quote from: Jairus's Invisible FriendThe last real vacation i went on was a road trip with some friends, we ended up in Key West, Florida for a few days, and that was like a 9 months ago

Quote from: Mao Laoren on January 09, 2009, 08:39:41 AM
Dear Invisible Friend,

What's your favorite animal? What kind of music do you like? Do you have any artistic talents like drawing, painting, writing or producing music?

If you were given the choice to do a little bit of good for everyone, or a whole lot of good only for yourself, what would you choose? The context is a bit irrelevant, it could be anything that you would consider good for yourself that others would also likely enjoy as well.

Quote from: Mao Laoren's Invisible FriendFavorite animal? I don't really have one I guess... I don't keep pets, and I'm not really into zoos.
Music? I'm not an active listener... I don't mind music but I don't really have any favorites.
Artistic talents: Well, for drawing and painting, I stopped doing that a few years ago. I don't really think I can draw or paint with any decent amount of skill nowadays. I'm not a great writer by any means, well, I can write in a coherent fashion but I don't think I'll ever be able to create decent poetry, or a story, or a novel, and I'm not a great essay writer either. I don't think I've ever had a talent for making music.

In such scenarios, context *does* matter, in fact, context is everything. I mean, if I was homeless and then won a million dollars, I would probably keep it rather than put it into charities. On the other hand, if I were as rich as Bill Gates, I would probably look into philanthropy

Dear visibly challenged friend:

Do you mind me asking questions similar to the ones I asked last round?

Respond to any 5 of the following:

    * What are your thoughts and feelings about the technological singularity?
    * How would you improve the current economic model?
    * Are you comfortable with America's position as the "International police" in international politics, given its record?
    * How do you construct, using only a compass and a straightedge, a circle which passes though an arbitrary point and is tangent to two arbitrary lines?
    * What do you consider properties a good English work require?
    * Do you think religion has a large survival value in modern society, and why?
    * Some people say music is the nourishment of the soul. Do you agree, and why or why not?
    * Are you appalled by the lack of geographical knowledge most people possess? How come?
    * Do you find modern-day movies worth the investment and why?
    * Write a short narrative describing the journey of myself finding you, the Invisible Friend.

Quote from: Darkdragon's Invisible FriendDear darkdragon,
Do you mind me asking questions similar to the ones I asked last round?
Nah.  VSMIT seemed to have a lot of fun with those.

How would you improve the current economic model?
The best thing to do would be to adopt some aspects of socialism, namely the idea of government ownership, albeit partial ownership.

Are you comfortable with America's position as the "International police" in international politics, given its record?
No, I think there are other countries that would do better, but it should change, now that a new administration is to be in place.

Do you think religion has a large survival value in modern society, and why?
I don't think I understand the idea of "survival value."  If you mean the reason why religion has survived as long as it has, I think it's because of the fact that it's just human nature to want something to believe in.

Some people say music is the nourishment of the soul. Do you agree, and why or why not?
I both agree and disagree, because different people will have different ways of nourishing their own souls.

Are you appalled by the lack of geographical knowledge most people possess? How come?
Sometimes, because I find it extremely aggravating that some citizens of the US don't know where all of the states are, or don't care to learn, or don't know where major countries are.

Would you kill a small child (say a 5 years old) if it would grant you eternal youth? (say frozen at age 24, if your beyond 24, you'll biologically regress to 24, then freeze there)

Do you want a cookie, a medal or a small parade?

I'm not answering that one.

Cats.
I have a cat.
Um, no can't say it does.
I can't say it really matters to me.  Both are going to die way before I'd like.
Not really, eternal life doesn't seem all that interesting.
Cookie is fine.

2) How important is spelling and grammar to you?
3) What are some of your pet peeves?
4) Do you play WoW?

Quote from: Mao Laoren's Invisible FriendYellow
I'd like to consider myself reasonable about it. If I can coherently understand what someone is typing, I won't have issues with it. I don't really get upset about the occasional typo or a grammatical error here and there. On the other hand, if what I am reading has grammar and spelling is so bad that I have to spend an excruciating amount of effort trying to figure out what is in front of my eyes, then I get upset about it. I myself try to avoid spelling and grammar mistakes, but I'm not perfect and I don't expect anyone else to be either.
I don't lose my composure easily, I'm not sure if I have any.
No. I don't really like MMOs I have to pay for, and besides, from what I understand, it's in dire need of 'fumigation'.

Quote from: VSMIT's Invisible FriendDear Invisible Friend,
How did you like my unfinished questions?
> In my humble opinion, the questions make you appear.
Did they make you think about what I could have meant?
> Considering both unfinished questions are missing the object of the sentence, it is impossible to discern with any accuracy, especially without context the object of the sentence given the subject and the verb. Considering both the verbs "to be" and "often" both require a non i-l predicate, unlike verbs like "run", the "questions" are also fragments, a large grammatical error. For these reasons, I was rather inconvenienced by the style of question.
Should I not use unfinished questions anymore?

I take it from your responses that you like music... would this be a correct assessment?

What do you tend to do on your free time?

Would you consider yourself "street smart"?

Do you watch movies often? What kinds of movies do you like if so?

Just out of curiosity, what would you do if you were transported into your favorite fantasy realm?

Quote from: The1Kobra's Invisible Frienddear visible friend

not really but i fine it easy to find culture references rather then answer

Dear Invisible Friend...

Who would win in a fight: Batman, or God?
What webcomics do you read?
Halo or Bioshock?
Mario or Sonic?
Mickey Mouse or Bugs Bunny?
Jyrras or Abel?
Fa'Lina or Regina?
Jedi or Sith?
Now, a serious question: how much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?
Have you ever watched the Angry Video Game Nerd? If so, what was your favorite review?
Have you ever watched the Nostalgia Critic? If so, what was your favorite review?
Also, have I ever Random Hugged you?

Quote from: Jairus's Invisible FriendI'm gonna have to go with God... as great as batman's utility belt is, God's divine intervention seems to be a bit more useful

The laundry list would take many a monkeys, many a weeks to type

I'm gonna have to say tie if we're talking Halo 1... Bioshock hands down vs 2, or 3 though

Mario

Bugs

Abel

Regina

Sith

327 Board Feet per week

nope

yep, but i've got too many favorites to name just 1

you may or may not have... though if we took the time to say everything you have done, there would be no time to tell what you haven't, and if we took the time to say what you haven't done, well, again there would be no time to tell of what you have...

Dear Invisible friend,

Please think though the following question carefully, and reply as if it were a writing prompt in a creative writing course. The generally allocated time for the question is five minutes, although feel free to spend more time on it. You will, of course, not be graded on what you write.

How would you answer this question?

In under five minutes, obviously.

Dear Invisible Friend...

What's your favorite webcomic?
What's your favorite video game?
Do you watch anime? If so, what's your favorite?
Have you ever watched Mythbusters? What's your favorite myth they tested? Mine is probably the Lead Balloon myth.
Batman or Superman?
Han Solo or Indiana Jones?
If I asked you to draw something, would you try to?

Quote from: Jairus's Invisible FriendRight now i'd have to say it's a tie between DMFA and Cyanide and Happiness

Sorta depends on my mood, favorite is tough, i'd say top 3 at the moment RE4, Fallout 3, and System Shock (so yea, i've been in the mood for scarier games)

A little bit from time to time, always been a fan of ghost in the shell

One of the greatest shows ever, i love the cement truck...

Batman

Solo

I'd definitely try, finishing it in time is another story

Quote from: e_voyager's Invisible FriendDear visible friend...

No. ;)
Well, I've had a few run-ins with Boxy, but nothing that warranted more than a friendly reminder.
This one.
No.
If words have no meaning, then they have no value. Therefore, the purpose of meaning is to give words a definition.
Shoot first.
APF? What is that?
No. Why?
Mmmm, cherry pie. And no, I do not. Unless you count mixes. Which I don't.
A bird can be a word, but bee cannot be a verb. Unless it becomes one. To bee, or not to bee. Does that mean one would buzz around, seemingly without aim but in fact having a plan and a goal in mind?

Dear IF

Do you enjoy reading, if so, who's your favorite author(s)
Given my more morbid questions so far... candy hearts, or candy corn?
Would you rather have basic magical powers, or a lightsaber?
What's your favorite video game?
If you could choose a religion to be right about "heaven" which version would you enjoy the most (IE Valhalla is my personal favorite feasting, drinking, whoring, and fighting, for the rest of eternity)

Quote from: Basilisk2150's Invisible Friend
I've got a lot of authors I like to read.  Too many to list really.

I fail to see any of these as even close to morbid, but neither.  One tastes like chalk the other has no flavor.

Hmm.  both are pretty tempting, but the thing about magic is that it's only limited by your imagination whereas the lightsaber is very limited in comparrison.  So I guess magic.

That would depend on the year.  Every year I find a new one that just blows me away.  There are series that I love though.  I definitely love the Final Fantasy series and You can't go wrong with the Megaman series either.

This is a question that I won't answer for numerous reasons.

Quote from: Mao Laoren on January 14, 2009, 07:52:06 AM
Dear Invisible Friend,

1) Do you happen to go to school right now?  If not, when was the last time you went and for what?
2) What's better to you:  Being right, or having fun?
3) What are some of your pass-times?
4) What web comics do you read?

Quote from: Mao Laoren's Invisible FriendYes

I don't think that the two are mutually exclusive in most cases.

Computers, chess, computers, reading, computers, talking with friends, computers....

Tea and Cake or Death?
Werewolf or Vampire?
Knife or Gun?
Corvette ZR1 or Hummer H1?
Coach or 1st Class?
Plane, Train, or automobile?

and finally, do you think i'll be able to tell anything about you based on how you answer these?

Quote from: Basilisk2150's Invisible Friend
Personal Entertainment.
Star Wars.
Solid Snake.
Tea and Cake.
Werewolf.

Neither, but if I must I'll go with the Corvette.
Doesn't really matter, but I'll take coach.
Depends on the trip, but for the most part Automobile.

It's quite possible that you will.  I've been trying to leave as many hints as I can.  It is my hope that you have an easy time figuring out who I am.

Quote from: VSMIT's Invisible FriendDear Invisible Friend,

> If only it was that simple. I did use Finale Notepad. However, I never had the MIDI of the same song (Didn't bother to look); the only reason it looks so messed up was because I had to condense what is usually two instruments into one, and I only learnt of the feature to have two different lines of music on one staff later, after I bothered to use ties. Aside from that, I don't exactly see how you could accuse me of such a thing.

And I've heard it before, but I can't for the life of me figure out what it is.
> I'm sure you have heard it before. If I remember correctly, the two instruments the score was originally when it was originally composed was for the flute and the tuba, if that helps any.

Gabi: When does this round end again?

Quote from: Darkdragon's Invisible FriendDear Darkdragon,
What vice in people do you dislike the most and why?
When they intentionally mislead you.  I think it's kind of obvious why.

Do you consider it "right" (whatever your definition of that is - please define if it differs from common conceptions) for poverty-stricken people to cut down endangered rain forest to help them meet their ends financially?
I think that if it is within their needs, such as growing/raising food for their families, it is OK to be done.  However, if they are simply doing it for financial gain, I don't think it's right.

Do you think we will find extraterrestrials? Why or why not?
I don't think we (as in you and I) will find extraterrestrials.  In the future, though, Humans will, since it is naïve to believe that Earth was the only planet to beat the odds and produce life.

Do you find cryptozoology (the study of creatures whose existence has not been scientifically established) a fascinating "study"?
I think it's just an outlet for paranoids with too much time on their hands.  Draw your conclusions from that.

Define insanity. According to your definition, on a scale of 1 to 10, how insane do you consider yourself? Me?
A measure of a person's loss of sanity.  darkdragon: 3.  Invisible Friend: OVER NINE THOUSAAAAAAAAAAAND!

Yes, I have.

Dear Invisible Friend,
The reason why I said it looked like you just took a MIDI and opened it it Notepad is because there are a couple places where the quarter notes don't line up in the measures.  That is a common problem with people who write MIDIs and don't play exactly on the beat.
Have you ever been a musician (be it in High School/College or just for fun)?
If yes, what instrument did you play?

Quote from: Basilisk2150 on January 19, 2009, 08:50:17 PM
dear invisible friend
What style of martial art do you train in, that requires such a different style of blade?

do you have any really really funny, stupid stories you'd be willing to tell on an online forum? if so, please, tell a story

have you had a creepy reoccuring theme in your life recently? if so, what was it?

Have you ever gotten drunk to the point of blacking out?

Have you ever made an amazing idle threat, then accidentally admit you had no intention of acting on said threat shortly afterwards?

another question or 2 about the blade... about where is balance on the weapon? (to me it looks to be a little tip heavy, but maybe it's just the angle)
and do you prefer to fight overhand or underhand? (probably a stupid question i know, but i've been trained with knives prefering underhand, both with 1 or 2 blades... i've also seen people use the style with weapons that probably shouldn't be used that way [katana and chinese style saber])

Quote from: Basilisk2150's Invisible Friend
I used to participate in several, though my interests in weapons only really came out while I was studying Hung Gar style Kung Fu.
That said, I've walked away from that art and moved towards much more peaceful and soft ways.

I don't really have any I'm afraid, but if I did I'd gladly share them.

Hmm, nope.

No.

I tend to say what I mean and mean what I say.

The balance on the blade is actually closer to the inner curve due to the weighted grip, it's quite deceptive in it's appearance.  As for the overhand/underhand preference, it's entirely dependent on the situation and weapon.
For that blade, it's preferable to use it underhand and as a defense rather than an offense (though trust me, it's very effective in offensive use).
Originally I trained using a scimitar/saber set but I found blocking with them rather cumbersome and difficult.  My friend made this with that in mind.
Due to its shape it would still work just fine in any Kata I did and with the way the blade is made, it allowed me to defend better.  I couldn't use it
in an official context as it wasn't an approved weapon (custom made by an unlicensed and untrained person... not a chance it would get approved) but it
was a very well thought out gift on his part and I was very thankful for it.

Quote from: e_voyager's IFDear Visible Friend...

I agree. Therefore, you must make the time.

Do you think you know who your invisible friend is?

To you, what is a "hero"?
Someone who sacrifices their time, money, or even their freedom for the good of others.

What do you think would be the outcome of World War 3?
Death for almost everyone.  And respawn has been disabled.

What is the meaning of life?
To die.

What are your thoughts on philosophy?
I think it's a wasted science.

Quote from: Basilisk2150 on January 28, 2009, 12:09:49 PM
Well, i guess i'll get this ball rolling...

Dear invisible friend

How are you doing?
What is the weather like?
if you had the choice of eternal youth, or infinite wealth which would
you choose, and why?
i'm going to try some questions i enjoyed thinking through last round
Do you believe humans are naturally good, and learn evil later in
life, or are naturally evil, and learn good later in life?
Would you prefer 'Might is right' or 'might for right' as a way of thinking?
if you could be an animal, what would you be, and why?

Quote from: Basilisk2150's Invisible FriendGood, thanks. What about you?

Decent.

It's have to analyze the possible consequences carefully. Eternal
youth seems more appealing at first sight, but if it means surviving
every other living being and even the destruction of the world we live
in, and quite possibly being immolated while still remaining alive,
then infinite wealth seems a safer option. Then again, how would this
wealth manifest, and how would I be able to access it? And, just as
important, who would know about it?

Sure, but I must warn you: I won't give the same answer to the same
question twice.

I think that's a trick question. I don't believe either is right.
Newborns have no concept of good and evil. Those are things we learn
in the same way that we learn to speak and to walk. Babies simply act
on impulse and try to fulfill their needs.

If 'might for right' means using your power for what you believe is
right, then that's the obvious choice. The other option would mean
everything that's possible is justified: you could go around killing
babies just because you can and you would see nothing wrong with that.

Human. Because only then would I get to enjoy intellectual challenges.

Quote from: techmaster-glitch on January 28, 2009, 11:15:49 PM
Okay, time to think up random questions that will help me in no way whatsoever as I do not know any personal details of any members to match to :B

Hmm.

Dear Active Camouflaged Friend,

Do you watch any anime?
If so, which ones?

What is your favorite book?
What is your favorite movie?

:rolleyes ...What do you think about robots? >:3

Quote from: techmaster-glitch's IFI watch a few, though haven't really had the time lately

Favorite book is hard, i like a lot of different styles and genres which makes choosing one pretty hard... but if you want just one, i'll go with the entire Dune collection

Again favorite movie is pretty hard, but i'll give you a top 3:
Lock, Stock and 2 Smoking Barrels
The Rock
The Dark Knight

As for what i think about robots... it depends, i think specialized robots are great such as the ones used by automakers, but the ones like the French and Japanese are building, the robots that will 'replace' humans, they're too expensive, too slow, and lack any form of intuition at all... they're more of a publicity stunt, than a real practical tool...

Now if we're talking Sci-Fi... that'd just take way too much space to go into detail... but i see them like any other tool, they can be used for good or evil

Quote from: VSMIT on January 29, 2009, 06:36:44 PM
Dear Invisible Friend,
Do you exist?
Do you have control over who you are?

Quote from: VSMIT's IFAs far as I can tell, yes.
I'd like to think so.

Quote from: Basilisk2150 on January 30, 2009, 12:48:03 PM
Dear Gabi... i offer my condolences that your invisible friend has
decided to haunt you rather than reply...  :hug

to my own invisible friend...
Here are a series of choices, choose the one you prefer
Star Wars or Star Trek?
Beef or Chicken?
Good or Evil?
Good or Awesome?
Soup or Sandwich?
Mashed or Baked?
Mario or Sonic?
Solid Snake or Sam Fisher?
Pirate or Ninja?
and finally... are you feeling a little De-Javu?

Quote from: Basilisk2150's Invisible FriendSo many choices... I'll
add some options.

Stardust

Fish

Pringles

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious

Pasta

Grated

Titus (come to think of it, how many VG mascots are there?)

Lara Croft

Robot

I've never met that Javu person, whoever s/he/it is.

Quote from: techmaster-glitch on January 30, 2009, 02:19:45 PM
Dear invisible friend,

Huh, your thoughts on robots coincide almost exactly with mine...interesting...

Ooh, thought of some new questions.
Have you ever played the board game Risk?
If so, how do you like it?
Have you ever played the board game Monopoly?
If so, how do you like it?
Have you ever played Dungeons and Dragons?
If so, what version(s) (or computer/video games), and how do you like it/them?

Quote from: techmaster-glitch's IFYes
It's pretty fun
Yes
Slight of hand + Banker = easiest way to cheat ever... not that i'd ever do that... innocent face*
Yea, a couple of times
We used the basic rules of D&D to start our own RPs, as dice are the easiest way to
determine chance... though the gang has been a little busy as of late, we're talking about starting up again on tuesdays...

Quote from: Jer-oh-me on January 31, 2009, 02:11:31 AM
Good eeeeeevening my invisible friend,

Let us begin with me asking if you are Twenty-five yet? (This question is based off of research done by many scientists and reveals that the human brain finishes maturing at this age on average)

What is 23,693 - 672 * 23 equal? Please don't use a calculator!!!

I like Douglas Adams, who is your favorite author?

Do you like the color Pink? Green? Orange? White?

If you could own a rare vehicle of absolutely any kind, that already exists, what would it be?

What's the fastest you know you have moved, whilst in control of your means of locomotion?

Do you believe in Ghosts? Extra Terrestrials? Bigfoot? Germs?

Quote from: Jer-oh-me's IFdear visible friend

the servery says pink.
it's under 9000! no seriously 12000 + 1800  =13,800. the 72 fits in there some were i'm not sure  were as i didn't need that much math for the joke. but as you know 20 * 72 would be over 1000 means that it could not possibly be over 9000.

can't really say. right now Lyndon Hardy and Piers anthony are occupying my time but i'll never forget either bova or McCaffrey.

there seem to be some missing options unless you mean power rangers. and yes there was and orange non power ranger.

does that mean no flying carpet or lantern ring?

i fell at about 11 feet per second does that count?

Gggerms? i am so out of here!

Quote from: e_voyager on January 28, 2009, 11:47:44 PM
Wait i'm part of this round?
i'd better ask some questions then.

Dear Invisible Friend,

darkness or light?
dragon or tiger?
would that you could ?
do you know the muffin man?
and more importantly do you fear him?
Do you have a tendency to question authority?
Do you know who the question is?
Do you have trouble sleeping?
what about when you have a a deadline hovering over you and a lot of work to do?
have you mastered the five magics?
do you know the secret of the sixth magic?
i have a secret that most everybody knows. do you have one also?
how did i get into the round of the game?
will i guess who you are only to insist on the wrong person again like i have in previous rounds?

Quote from: e_voyager's IFDear e_voyager,

Can't have one without the other.

Dragon

Maybe.

He lives on Drury Lane.

Nah.  He's as soft as the pastries he makes.

Sometimes.

...  What?

No.

I get the work done, then I sleep.

Have you?

Apparently not.

Maybe.

I guess Jairus thought you asked.

I'll try to make it easier for you.

Quote from: Gabi on January 28, 2009, 02:19:09 PM
Hello, dear Invisible Friend!

What do you think about dogs who demand attention from players who are trying to ask some questions in this game? How should I deal with such a situation?

What's your normal reaction to the word 'robot'? (Sorry, I couldn't resist it.)

What's your perspective on life?

What is the meaning of life?

Can you appreciate the difference between the two previous questions?

Since we're at it, what do you think about these questions?

Quote from: Gabi's IFBeg pardon for the lateness of this...

I think such dogs are... Well honestly I can't really speak to that situation as my own pet tends to be rather aloof.

"Where's the off button on this thing!?"

Seize the day, one day at a time.

To be satisfied at the end.

Of course, I'm an astute person.

They seem to be well thought out.

Quote from: Jer-oh-me on February 01, 2009, 05:26:43 AM
Dear Invisible Friend,

You were right the first time, as it is indeed under Nine-thousand, but just barely. As the order of operations is multiplication first in this case as you have no other priority operations, you end up with 23,693 - 15,456. That comes to a difference of 8,237. That's just a little friendly math lesson, I hope that didn't come off as pretentious. Did it?

I have a bic ballpoint pen, it is red, its ink is also red, I am writing on pink sticky note paper, will my writing be legible?

this question contians three errores, what are they?

Which of Piers Anthony's works do you like the most?

How about Ben Bova's?

I was not referring to the Power Rangers, would you mind answering the questions? They were: "Do you like the color Pink? Green? Orange? White?"

What is your favorite subject to learn about?

Quote from: Jer-oh-me's IFyes but just barely

this question contians1 three errores2, what are they?3  this is not a question it is a statement phrased as a question.

hardto say i've read so many. i'm into modes now.

orion

all are one and one is all (if you think about it it's and answer so lighten up)

anyways, dear IF i'm going to list some quotes, lets see if you can
tell me where they came from...

"heavy is reliable, and if it doesn't work... you can always hit him with it"

"I CAN'T BELEIVE THAT JUST F***ING HAPPENED, IS IT DEAD?!"

"i think we should stay here...." "because, i'm already in the dumpster"

"Am i here to humor you... do i make you laugh... do i amuse you, by
making floaty, sputtering noises while you offer me insults instead of
payment"

"a mountain that eats people... i want one!"

"i don't suppose they have a 'sorry i beat you down, and your
girlfriend turned out to be a total wench' card in here"


Now, on to more pressing matters...

Are you feeling a little De-javu yet?

Quote from: Basilisk2150's Invisible Friend
What makes you think I'd let you trade me for that haunter?

A surprise test? And here I am, not having studied... Let's see what I can do.

Snatch

The Boondock Saints

Pineapple Express

The Good Fellows? I'm not sure it's that one, I've heard many similar quotes.

Looking For Group

That's another webcomic, isn't it? I'm sure I've read it, but I'm
afraid I can't remember where.

I'm feeling a little mis-spelling, to be honest.

Dear Invisible Friend:

Are you recent to the forums (withing the last year), been around for some time (a couple years), A veteran of the place (just after the big Nice-CMF migration), or an ancient (before the migration)?

Do you like video games?

Do you like the fact that I'm only asking two or three questions at a time?

Quote from: VSMIT's IFAlmost two years.
Nope.
I dunno...I gues it's "better" for me, but it doesn't quite feel fair.

Quote from: VSMIT on February 03, 2009, 08:23:27 PM
Dear Invisible Friend,
Do you want me to ask more questions then?
What's your favorite movie?
What's your favorite genre of music?
Who's your favorite artist (musical or otherwise)?
Have you started on your pic yet?

Quote from: VSMIT's IFAsk however much you want.
Hmm...never really had any 'favorite' movies, but Wall-E comes very close to changing that.
I'll listen to most music, but my preferred genres are Rock(classic and modern) and Techno.
No favorite artists anywhere, really.
...No... I'll get working on that...

Dear IF, i'm tired as hell at the moment, so if i start rambling
incoherently... well, you have my permission to go ahead and make fun
of me for it...

So...
How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?
(please give your answer in board feet)

Have you ever done something really stupid, and had it caught on
camera? if so, do you care to share?

did you do anything in the past week that was really funny?

whats the weather like where your at right now?

do you have any pets?

have you ever encountered a situation that left you absolutely confused?

finally, have you every tried bud light with lime? (it seriously
tastes like ginger ale... what the hell)

Quote from: Basilisk2150's Invisible FriendAs many board feet as a woodchuck could chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood.

Nothing really stupid comes to my mind.

Not as much as 'really funny', but possibly somewhat funny.

That's the second time you've asked me about the weather. What are
you, a meteorologist?

Yes.

Sometimes.

No, but you may have proved there's no ginger in ginger ale.

Quote from: Gabi on February 03, 2009, 02:26:17 PM
Dear IF, what took you so long?

Nice colors, by the way. But why is it called Phi?

Do you drive, take public transit, bicycle, or some combination of the previous three? And if the forth option what?

What's the mistake in the previous question?

Quote from: Gabi's IFDear Gabi,

It was a combination of busyness on my part and inactivity on Jairus's part, as I sent it to him when he was not especially active.

That would probably be giving too much away, but I will tell you it has to do with mathematics.

I take the light rail train and ride my bicycle.

"Fourth" is misspelled.

Quote from: VSMIT's IFI am doing quite well, how about yourself?
i think we were all here for last round...

Quote from: Jer-oh-me on February 23, 2009, 07:40:42 AM
Dear invisible friend,

Do you like math?

Do you like food?

Do you like purple?

Quote from: Jer-oh-me's IFDear Jer,
Sometimes.
If I didn't, would I be playing this game?
It's ok.

Quote from: e_voyager on February 21, 2009, 12:45:57 PM
Dear invisible friend

How are you doing today?
What is the weather like where you are? (we have snow)
have you awakened or are you sleeping?
are you dreaming or in a nightmare?
are you organic or inorganic?
avatar wise are you male or female?
can it be 'am hugs time' now?

Quote from: e_voyager's Invisible FriendI'm OK. A bit shaken. What about you?
I don't know, I'd have to stand up and look outside to check.
Neither. This is all an illusion.
See above. The question is, is it a dream or a nightmare to you?
We're all mostly organic if we're honest.
There's a 75% chance of the answer being 'yes' and a 25% chance of it
being 'no'. I'm not going to reveal that much information.
Is this somehow related to a bucket?

Quote from: Basilisk2150 on February 26, 2009, 05:48:09 PM
... are people taking their sweet time in responding... or did jay get hit by a semi?

Quote from: Gabi on February 22, 2009, 07:55:24 AM
I think llearch got to it first.

We've all played at least twice before, haven't we?

Dear Invisible Friend, how are you?

What do you think about good and evil? (While this was inspired by Bas's old question, it's not the same).
Did/do you have (a) favorite subject(s) at school? If so, which one(s) and why? If not, why not?
What about least favorite(s)?

Quote from: Gabi's IFyes i think so

i am well how about you?
i think the equation is unbalanced. some think is missing.
i did but i'm not in school at the moment.
handwriting

Quote from: Basilisk2150 on February 24, 2009, 10:51:57 AM
Dear invisible friend...

so here are some random questions i've been asked at various locations in the past week... some are humorous... others just interesting...

lets start with a really really awkward yet hilarious one
If gay people 'come out of the closet', do gay midgets 'come out of the cupboard'

How well would you say you are prepared to survive the zombie appocalypse on a scale of mushy pulp, to new world order?

If you had to choose between getting drawn on while passed out, or blacking out and finding out you did something horrifically stupid, which would you take?

at what point have you reached the point of no return when leaving your place of residence to do some everyday task?

Quote from: Basilisk2150's IFDear visible friend...

here are some answers to the random questions you've asked me...

no

lawless anarchist in a gyrocopter

the former

boarding the train at the train station and passing the first station from my home train station, which is still within reasonable range of my home.

Quote from: VSMIT on February 24, 2009, 08:12:08 PM
Dear Invisible Friend,
I'm quite good, thanks for asking.

Do you live in the northern hemisphere?
Do you live in the eastern or western hemisphere?

I think I'm only going to ask two or three questions per set.  Is that alright with you?  Or would you prefer more?

Quote from: VSMIT's IFNorthern
Western


Either really works, it's all up to you good chap...

Quote from: e_voyager on February 23, 2009, 10:25:30 AM
Dear invisible friend,

are you there?
has our host gone AWOL?
what does AWOL mean anyway?
do you have purple hair?
what about green?
have you heard of the sword of centuries?

Quote from: e_voyager's Invisible FriendI would like to think so.

He's already answered that one.

Away Without Official Leave.

Not as far as I can see.

Same as above.

I've heard about the Blade of Time. Any connection?

Quote from: e_voyager on February 25, 2009, 12:29:33 AM
Dear visible friend;

this is feeling familiar  have we met before?
have you ever banned me?
have i ever banned you?
why does Ren Cleave and smite?
is it time to eat?
do you like tea?

Quote from: e_voyager's Invisible FriendHere on the forum? Yes, we have.

None of us has banning powers. Unless you're talking about the Ban Game, in which case the answer's a definite 'maybe'.

Which Ren are you talking about?

It is if you're hungry.

Xihuan (that's 'like' in Chinese, and in this case it also means 'yes').

Quote from: Jer-oh-me on February 25, 2009, 09:20:09 PM
Dear invisible friend,

I'm at work making a pizza you ordered, what is on it? (Yes I do really work at a pizza shop)

I like Basilisk's apocalypse question, so could you also give me your answer to it?

Duct tape or Super glue?

Sonic Screwdriver or Lightsaber?

Steel or Aluminium?

Pogo Stick or Unicycle?

Quote from: Jer-oh-me's IFDear Jer-Jer,
Meat.
I would be the leader of the new world order of Zombies.
Depends on what I'm trying to adhere.
Laser Screwdriver.
Al.  Lighter and sometimes more structurally sound.
Pogo.  I think.

Quote from: Basilisk2150 on February 27, 2009, 01:16:24 PM
Dear invisible friend, as you might have guessed, i know some rather interesting people...

anyways, on to the questions

Are you in school/college?
if so, what do you wish to do afterwards and what are your favorite subjects?
if not, what do you do with your time?

Do you have a job?
if so, is it a fun job?

... lastly, do you trust me?

Quote from: Basilisk2150's IFDear visible friend, well, they certainly seem creative...

yes, please get on with the questions

yes
make lots of money, get married, have kids. science & math generally.

yes
yes

... by what degree?

Quote from: Gabi on February 27, 2009, 08:10:01 AM
Dear IF... some 'think' is missing? Did you mean some 'thinking'?

You didn't answer what your favorite subject was.

Was handwriting a subject for you? That's strange. When did you take it, and what was it like?

Why is it that I keep thinking one thing and typing (or saying) another, usually making me look worse than I really am?

And the classic: what's the weather like where you are?

Quote from: Gabi's IFyes something is missing and i think it requires some thinking to balance the equation.
i never said i had a favorite subject  just a couple of subjects i didn't like like handwriting. a list of subjects i liked would be fairly long.
yes it was up to fifth grade. the wanted us to perfectly shape our characters with linking and shape not to mention order. not fun at all nor was it easy.
it happens to us all i think
wet. it has been raining and i don't mean general Rain either.

Quote from: Jairus on March 02, 2009, 02:45:21 AM
Um... hello? Anyone there? I'm starting to wonder if people are sending me answers and I'm just not getting them because my hotmail account hates me.

Only 4 days left! This is going at such a slow pace, yet time keeps running.

dear invisibe friend.

i don't know if the sword of centuries and blade of time are connected i've only heard of it as a song. http://www.dominic-deegan.com/view.php?date=2005-10-25

i love to loge trivia i keep in in a oblivion folder.
do you have and oblivion folder?
what would you keep in it if you did?
what files system do you use?
can you multitask?
would you like to be a robot?

Quote from: e_voyager's Invisible FriendAh, yes, that one.

No, I don't.

Probably sheets of paper.

Whatever I can access.

Yes. I'm doing it right now.

No. And now if you'll excuse me, there's a monster chasing me. I need to get away from it.

Quote from: Basilisk2150 on February 28, 2009, 09:01:24 PM
Dear invisible friend... 

i'm going out to the bar in about an hour, what are you plans for this weekend?

why is it that it takes men 15, 20 minutes max to get ready for an evening, yet it takes women at least 3 hours?

is there on characteristic about yourself that others seem to notice... and furthermore comment on?
if so, what is it?

if you could take an all expenses paid vacation for a week to anywhere in the world, where would you go, and why?

if you could become any animal, what would you become and why? (human is not an option)

if you mysteriously received $50,000 US as a gift from a mysterious stranger, what would you do with it?

Lastly... on a scale of "mildly drunk" to "where am i, and where are my pants?!" how bad do you think it's going to get tonight? (side note, i'm going on a bar crawl with my friend kat)

Quote from: Basilisk2150's IFDear bas...

i worked.

dunno

my stature

australia, ive aways wanted to go there.

probably a squirrel

pay for stuff

cant say dont know your drinking habits...

Quote from: Jer-oh-me on March 02, 2009, 02:56:58 AM
Dear invisible friend,

Ah, you'd probably like the Sicilian then, it has Pepperoni, Ham, Italian Sausage, and Seasoned Beef on it.

Apple OS, MS Windows, or Linux?

What was your favorite TV show as a kid?

Which of the Lord of the Rings movies did you like the best?

Are you going to see Watchmen?

Would you rather have a Bluray or a DVD?

Do you think Google is good or evil?

Quote from: Jer-oh-me's IFDear Jerome,
Needs moar meat.

OSX or XP.

Good question.

RotK.

Hell yeah!

Bluray, but I don't have a Bluray player...

Goodle.

Dear Invisible Friend,
Have you started on your picture yet?
What level of education are you currently in?

Quote from: VSMIT's IFYes, i have started you picture

I'm currently a student at a university

Quote from: e_voyager on March 05, 2009, 03:33:31 AM
dear invisible friend

is the box in trouble?
what happened the spider ham?
do you know the muffin man?
why do i almost always ask that?
have you had fun?
did you beat level 256 in Pack man?
what  is next on the list of impossible things to do?

Quote from: e_voyager's Invisible FriendI don't think so. He always bounces back.
Peter Porker? His 5 minutes of glory have ended, or so it seems.
Which one of them? There are too many.
You should be asking yourself that question.
Yes, I have. And you?
There's a game called Pack man?
Putting the list of impossible things to do in order so that there can be a 'next'.

Here's a little something I've done for you. I hope you like it.

Dear Invisible Friend
Lets go try some deeper questions

Invisible friend, do you think beauty is something social/cultural, or something more biological , and why do you think this?

How would you describe yourself in just 3 words?

If you could change one major aspect of yourself, what would it be?

Quote from: Basilisk2150's IFDear Bas
Alright

I believe it is in the eye of the beholder

Quite quiet person

No, I'm happy with myself.

Quote from: Gabi on March 07, 2009, 08:21:42 AM
Thanks for the image! It's an interesting drawing. I like your replies too. :) Hmm... I guess that's it for this round? It's been slooooooow, but still fun.

Quote from: Jer-oh-me on March 06, 2009, 04:41:54 PM
Dear invisible friend.

That's a lot of meat... And we only have one other kind, salami, to add.

Do you like vegetables at all?

Coca-Cola or Pepsi?

Ale or Lager?

Chips or Crisps?

Football or Rugby?

Quote from: Jer-oh-me's IFDear Jerry,
Depends on the vegetable.

Pepsi.

Neither, I don't drink.

Depends on what I'm having them with.

Depends on who I'm playing with.

Can you figure out what all of that in your pic is?  'Cause I can't.

Quote from: e_voyager on March 06, 2009, 11:05:52 PM
checks the metronome


hello host??

invisible friend? is anyone here?

did the game get called on accounting of sleep?

Quote from: e_voyager's Invisible FriendNope. Just me.

I'm here. You just can't see me because... well, the reason is obvious.

I think only Jairus knows what truly happened. Care to enlighten us, dear host?

Quote from: Gabi on March 07, 2009, 07:21:02 PM
Awww. *Hugs host.* You know you need to get some rest when you start talking about yourself in third person.

Quote from: e_voyager on March 08, 2009, 03:42:51 AM
she's right. take care of yourself man as for me i'm looking for a lost mind let me know if you see it okay?

Quote from: Basilisk2150's IFBas,

This probably reveals my identity, but oh well, such is the nature of my art.

Quote from: Gabi on March 09, 2009, 07:54:42 AM
What's the connection between the two of you (Jairus and Jer-oh-me)? Really, I know there's something, but I can't figure out what it is.

Quote from: e_voyager on March 09, 2009, 12:30:04 PM
Could they be Twins separated at birth?

That's pretty unlikely, he's a couple years younger first off, also I'm from Indiana, and he's always lived in California, where I've never been.

Wait, a couple of years younger? We're both twenty-one, Jerry. And I have been to Indiana, actually, about nine years ago (long story short: church group convention thingy). Now, if you were from Colorado, then there is a possibility that we were cousins or something like that, because that's where my mom's from. Also, I'm fairly sure that I wasn't part of a pair of twins.

What pointed you toward me, Jer?

Quote from: VSMIT on March 12, 2009, 02:38:31 AM
What, you don't think Gabi would say "Moar" to disguise herself further?  She's been known to do that kind of thing.

Also, Gabi, what?

Quote from: Gabi on March 12, 2009, 03:33:56 PM

As for you, e, I think it's just the fact that you and I have been playing together for so long that I've learnt to recognize your writing style. Didn't you recognize mine as well?

Quote from: llearch n'n'daCorna on March 14, 2009, 10:09:40 PM
And, as always, should you or your IF be caught, identified, or killed, the moderators will disavow any knowledge of your existence.

Quote from: Basilisk2150 on March 14, 2009, 10:58:30 PM
Dear invisible friend

I'm going to try some somewhat entertaining questions to start off the round
- In the event of the zombie appocalypse, on the scale of member of the undead legion to ruler of the new world order, where would you rank yourself, and why?
- If you were to be placed into a movie, which movie world would you wish to live in, and why?
- If you could be any animal (not human) what would you want to be, and why?
- Lastly, in a few years, would you be terrified to find out that i was the doctor treating you following some minor to mid-level injury that forced you to go to the hospital?

Quote from: Basilisk2150's Invisible Friend
Dear Friend Who Can Be Seen,

Okay, sure, go ahead.
- Hm... probably just a slightly-upgraded undead legion commander. I'm not that impressive, but I'd be one of the zombies ordering the rest to kill all the Notdeads.
- Star Wars. Kickass gadgets, awesome universe, strange aliens\205 even if I didn't have force powers, it'd still be cool.
- No clue. Never really given much thought out of wondering briefly what it would be like.
- Well, unless you were a doctor, then yes, I would be terrified. But I'd be nervous anyway, since hospitals do that to me.

Quote from: Jairus on March 14, 2009, 11:12:50 PM
Hear ye, hear ye, Invisible Friend!

I speak to ye now, in the hopes that ye shalt hear my queries to you!

- Shalt I continue to speak in this horrid butchered Olde Englishe, or should I speaketh in a normal tone?
- What light though yonder window breaks?
- Do you bit your thumb at me?
- What is a man?
- Tis been a while since I played a round, shall we have fun, my friend I cannot see?
Actually, I'll stop, for fear that the Boxy Bobby will come in here and go "'Ello 'ello 'ello! What's all this then?"

Quote from: Jairus' Invisible Friend
- Whatever suits you best. I'm going to speak plain English either way.
- A little bit of sunlight.
- What?
- It is normally an adult male human being, but the word is often applied by extension to the whole human race, and in some forms of literature to non-humans as well. So there you have a long and apparently detailed definition which does not, in fact, define anything.
- I'm having fun already.
- The Bobby? I think "The Boxy" has a better ring to it.
