What's the next blog going to be?

edited February 2005 in General Chat
I could guess a million different things but I'm going to put my money on the proper implementation of rubber ducks in adventure games. :-?

    I'm not allowed to tell you what the next blog will be about, but it's something incredibly exciting that you all know and love!!! Yes, every last one of you!

    Actually, I haven't a clue what the next blog will be about, but I wanted to do whatever I could to drum up support for the blog speculation thread, which is currently my favorite thread by a wide margin.

    If anyone wants to help make this the #1 thread, you can make suggestions for blog topics. If I'm really inspired by any suggestion, I'll make that the subject of the next blog AND I'll treat that person to dinner at the Wendy's down the street from Telltale HQ! You'll have to pay for your own airfare though. And any food you want at Wendy's. And my food too. Kind of a bum deal for whoever wins the contest come to think of it, but don't let that stop you!

    Rubber ducks are nothing. How about rubber corporations? I don't believe I have ever seen a major corporation in a video game, not portrayed in a negative light, not to mention ones constructed from non-metallic materials.

    But how about the literary and textual value (and lack thereof) of some games? You've touched upon that in the Blades of Stenchtar bilogy, but I'd like to know how you respond to games that cheapen the serious value of a game's story in the name of gameplay, and conversely, games that sacrifice gameplay for story. Do you see a day when video games will be as valued texts as books and film are now?

    Actually, I'd just like to see your reaction to a stocky bipedal dog and psychotic rabbity thing dropping by your broom closet well-furnished office.

    If you're going to build publicity for this thread, you'll need to write a blog about blog speculation thread perpetuation. It'd be the perfect promotion.

    That's a good suggestion. Wait, that might be a tongue twister.

    Sporkman suggested a speculating blog about blog speculation!

    I've got to right that down somewhere.

    Why can't the blog just be a surprise?
  • edited November 2004
    It could always still be a suprise, if no one can get it.

    Boobs.

    If it's not about boobs, I'd settle for alot of boobs.

    If it's not about alot of boobs, I'd settle for a overwhelmingly tremendous infathomable lot of naked breasts.

    Basically, if it's not about boobs, alot of boobs or a overwhelmingly tremendous infathomable amount of naked breasts, I'm not reading it. So there. Your loss.

    Asshole.

    wooooo buddy, i know that you intend for that to be a joke, I'm just letting you know, that post may offend. my older sister was over my shoulder when reading it and didn't like what it said. just thought I'd give you a heads up. i do encourage free speech though, so my post is not to offend you or anyone and i hope that you don't feel as if my post is coming off hostile i'm writing this with the utmost respect to you.

    No problem. If it offended you or anyone else, I'll remove it.

    But you have to understand, I'm just a dumb foreigner with a very limited understanding of the english language. But I've picked up the most important words, as you can see, from watching american movies and visiting internet forums.

    Tell your sister I'm sorry, and I'll make it up to her someday if she gives me the chance. I'm a great kis... I mean conversationalist. So I'm sure she'll see that I'm not that bad a guy afterall.

    Well, let's get back on topic. Don't let me bother you, my friends.

    And yeah, I know this reply may seem demeaning and sarcastic as well, but I promise you it is not it's intention. It's just my attempt at trying to be funny, and failing miserably in the process. Looking forward to many great years with Telltale, their games, and the people who play them!

    i wouldn't call yourself a dumb foreigner, and i wouldn't delete you post either, the word boobs here in the USA is such a small word for someone to get offended with but it does happen. i thought your post was comical. one reason you shouldn't call yourself a dumb foreigner is because you spell better then i do and I'm fluent in English. if my post made you feel bad then I'm sorry. and i thank you for your understanding.

    groop hug............ :p

    Speaking of overused coasters, why don't you bring back the band, Brendan? I'm sure Troy would be happy to replace Metalhead Marty as drummer. I'm sure you could do some hardcore music work for any upcoming games.

    Well, that is, as long as Troy doesn't drum with his damaged toes.

    Brendan, i've been to that Wendy's...whatever you do... don't order the Biggie Shake... it'll give you the biggie runs.

    How about i take you there for lunch, and you write your new blog about how awesome I am, and how much you wish I worked at Telltale games...

    oh man so this blog stuff is pretty exciting huh...

    better just write the blog about how im going to drop out of highschool and get a job at the dry cleaners.

    Sorry to be so demanding but... We need a new blog. Not that all the musings of my fellow adventure game fans aren't interesting to read, but... I would love to hear some more thoughts from the Telltale Gang. I assume their silence is a good thing (i.e. they are working hard on the new game) but to quote the immortal words of Dr. Evil, "throw me a frickin' bone here!"

    Very well, I will drop everthing I am doing right this instant and write you a new blog.

    I hope this makes you happy.

    But mark my words...when I have taken over the gaming world we will be doing things on MY schedule!
