I see Elan has confirmed something about the faces of the NSFW decks will be different so you can tell them apart. That's good to hear. :)
Eric 'Tchotchke' Aschner 2015-02-03T12:38:37-05:00
....but he also confirmed that the new faces will not be EU friendly.
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-02-03T12:38:52-05:00
Dang it! Someone thought I was dead and buried me while I was sleeping again!
Eric 'Tchotchke' Aschner 2015-02-03T12:39:25-05:00
Well, maybe you should start breathing when you sleep.
BruceP - The Chameleon 2015-02-03T12:39:28-05:00
@Lord Z,
Must be the smell. :)
"Diamond Dan" Drake 2015-02-03T12:40:08-05:00
@Cheetah butt - Oh, frito lay, because of cheetos. I was wracking my brain trying to figure out what we might have that General Mills could be bothered by!
Shaun Fergus 2015-02-03T12:40:50-05:00
@Joshua "Thunder Clap" Durben
I understand what Thunderclap does... the "hobby" sites that I am a member of have anywhere between 1000 and 10,000 people who may or may not have accounts with the large social media sites. In fact, a number of members have stated that they are not members as they don't want to be a part of them since they have their "hobby" sites to socialize on a level they feel comfortable with... I guess what I am saying is that "every little bit" will help in the long run... Peace
"Diamond Dan" Drake 2015-02-03T12:41:19-05:00
@Chameleon - have you seen the Chamitten yet?
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-02-03T12:41:27-05:00
@Tchotchke, it's hard.
@Chameleon, the patches of obvious decay and exposed bone probably don't help, either
@Lord Zombitten what's so bad about being buried ? i would think as an undead that you would prefer to sleep 6 feet under :-)
BruceP - The Chameleon 2015-02-03T12:43:53-05:00
@Cheetah Butt,
Did you see the text for the Chamitten on the Face Sheet is on there twice?
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-02-03T12:44:32-05:00
@TC, you're probably right. Then again, Disney goes after daycares that have Mickey painted on their walls. Of course, that's a full-on re-creation and not a parody, and Disney as a corporation is kind of evil
BruceP - The Chameleon 2015-02-03T12:44:35-05:00
*Fact
"Diamond Dan" Drake 2015-02-03T12:44:40-05:00
Thanks! Though, I think it definitely loses a little something in the tiny scale. The eyes darting around are harder to make out at least.
Eric 'Tchotchke' Aschner 2015-02-03T12:45:56-05:00
Would you rather be in a legal fight with the IRS or with Disney?
BruceP - The Chameleon 2015-02-03T12:45:58-05:00
@DDD,
Yeah. Though I see you can View the image and then it's bigger. :)
Mike Kabala 2015-02-03T12:46:40-05:00
I can fix that. I have the full-size image and I could post it on @Chameleon's Bio page.
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-02-03T12:46:43-05:00
@TC, it's not the sleeping, it's the digging myself out before having a proper breakfast or caffeine that's the problem
Mike Kabala 2015-02-03T12:48:28-05:00
Maybe you should tie a shovel around your waist before you go to sleep ... unless the gravediggers take all of your possessions before burying you ...
Eric 'Tchotchke' Aschner 2015-02-03T12:48:37-05:00
Yeah, I can see where that would leave you in a sour mood. Need a good bowl of hot brains-meal to start your day.
"Diamond Dan" Drake 2015-02-03T12:49:27-05:00
@cheetah butt - did you say you are seeing black on the edge of it? It's showing to me a small stripe of white on top and bottom, I think because my .gif export had slightly different dimension settings that the original images...
Eric 'Tchotchke' Aschner 2015-02-03T12:49:31-05:00
...they'd probably leave the shovel at the top of the grave, so you'd just be tied to something above ground. :P
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-02-03T12:50:28-05:00
Cheetah Butt, I could try that. They've never tKen anything from me before. It must be because they think anything touching me is riddled with disease
BruceP - The Chameleon 2015-02-03T12:50:55-05:00
@DDD,
I see the white border on top and bottom, too
"Diamond Dan" Drake 2015-02-03T12:51:08-05:00
Also, @cheetah butt - I'd think Mars Inc. might be more concerned with the prevalence of skittles.
I am only going to say this once and will not repost it.
Another Kickstarter Campaign that I backed called Lightbox Photography Cards is down to their last 24 hours. I have included a link below for your convenience.
@Jon Easley, @Cherie Dickey -- I had posted the same thing before I read Jon's post/comment.
Add me to the just ship it list. I'm watching the main thread (not sure if those people have lives other than posting to Exploding Kittens) about what would make up the next two dozen expansion decks. I'm all for the ExpKit team to grab their ideas and start a new Kickstarter, I'm in as a backer.
But I want to see these decks first. Not really sure about the "goals" stuff.
But if you MUST have a goal then "If we make it to 6 million dollars we will ship ALL the decks in 30 days!!!" That should eat any extra money in the project.
@DDD, lol! Even notice how someone who doesn't have a life inside or outside of a thing, feels the need to make fun of it? Just saying, Astro couldn't keep up with me if he/she tried...
Mike Kabala 2015-02-03T12:57:24-05:00
@Chameleon. I have put the full-size image on your bio page for now. Click through on the Fact Sheet where your name appears.
Phillippa Cashion 2015-02-03T12:58:04-05:00
How's it all going today then...
Mike Kabala 2015-02-03T12:59:05-05:00
@DDD yes. I only saw the black bar at the reduced size, but it's more prominent at full size. Take a look at the image as it appears on @Chameleon's Bio page.
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-02-03T12:59:27-05:00
Also, it's not hard to do other things while keeping up here. It just means you come here when you pull your phone out every five minutes, instead of going to fb, twitter, or candy crush
Mike Kabala 2015-02-03T12:59:55-05:00
I think if you can fix it in the large size, the smaller one will take care of itself.
Mike Kabala 2015-02-03T13:02:32-05:00
If you wanted to do a simpler one (without the eye movement) for the smaller size, I am setting the width at 80px.
Eric 'Tchotchke' Aschner 2015-02-03T13:02:37-05:00
I'm working, just pop in every time I have to run / test / compile / otherwise wait on something.
"Diamond Dan" Drake 2015-02-03T13:04:30-05:00
@cheetah butt - Ah-ha! I think I see the issue now. The black bars are from the inaccurate gif dimensions vs. my original images. And I think the background I have fading in may have been scaled just a bit too small, so the white border appears where the green doesn't reach the edge...
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-02-03T13:05:35-05:00
That's how I do it at work, Tchotchke. I have today off, though. I'm working on the comic, but I have this open and visible all the time
Eric 'Tchotchke' Aschner 2015-02-03T13:07:34-05:00
Yeah, it just always depends. Yesterday I was so ass busy I think I posted like 3 times.
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-02-03T13:12:25-05:00
When you think about it, saying someone doesn't have a life because you think what they spend their time on is stupid, is pretty dumb. "But it's a waste of time!" As opposed to any other hobby? Really, the only time I say someone needs to get a life is when it is apparent to me thatthe person has nothing better to do than complain about everything and denigrate everyone with whom they come in contact.
Mike Kabala 2015-02-03T13:13:13-05:00
I also added a Bio page for the Chamitten so people can see the artwork in all its glory. Looks like I just tripled the number of Bio pages that need to be added.
Eric 'Tchotchke' Aschner 2015-02-03T13:13:48-05:00
"You spend your weekends building houses for the homeless? No partying with friends? Get a life!"
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-02-03T13:14:19-05:00
Exactly
Mike Kabala 2015-02-03T13:14:50-05:00
Everyone, please start working on your Bio pages. The more of these we can get, the more enhanced the website will be. A lot can be gleaned by screen scraping the comments where they tell a story or describe a creature in detail. All of this is great stuff for a Bio.
BruceP - The Chameleon 2015-02-03T13:18:26-05:00
@Cheetah Butt,
Cool, thanks. Didn't know we had bio pages now. :)
BruceP - The Chameleon 2015-02-03T13:18:58-05:00
@Cheetah Butt,
What are we expecting as a bio? You want a description of powers? What else?
"A mad-scientist whose only desire is to create new things and invest in his Potatten™ Kickstarter. He's no directly evil PER SE... Much like Dr. Light from Megaman, with his flagrant disregard for the laws of robotics, he doesn't care about the cause and affect of his experiments as long as there is continual advance in his work. He generally like chaos though, and will instigate trouble when he sees it."
How far do I have to scroll before I hit the last comment actually pertaining to this project?
Eric 'Tchotchke' Aschner 2015-02-03T13:24:35-05:00
"I'm not sure why I'm a villain. I only want to do good. 'What is good?' you may ask? Well, that's easy. It's whatever Wicked Felina wants. She's not wicked, it's just a name. Anyone maimed or killed in her wake was only hurt for the greater good."
Eric 'Tchotchke' Aschner 2015-02-03T13:24:54-05:00
Wicked Felina was the one that suggested I splice Sphagnum DNA into the potattens™, I thought it was brilliant so now they're explosive and she now has minions that blow up.
Bob "Powers of Tesla" Lindley 2015-02-03T13:26:48-05:00
@Wes. You're probably not going to live long enough to scroll that far. It's just that far down.
Well that's him all over isn't BaKahn? Me, I'll see what I can do about whipping up some xanittens... xanax kitten might just be the way to go here... Don't know how practical they will be though...
BruceP - The Chameleon 2015-02-03T13:39:58-05:00
@Cheetah Butt,
You here? How would you like our bio sent to you?
its rather funny how we have all taken over this chatboard and made it our own. you rarely ever see posts anymore from people asking about updates or complaining about the shipping costs to EU ect.....
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-03T13:43:14-05:00
Heya guys- I'm here. Can you repost bios? I'll copy and compile them all for Mr.butt
BruceP - The Chameleon 2015-02-03T13:43:23-05:00
@TC,
Yes, those have died off a lot. :)
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-02-03T13:43:29-05:00
We win!!!
"Diamond Dan" Drake 2015-02-03T13:43:35-05:00
@All - You know though guys, it's all a matter of perspective. We can sit here and say, look at all the greedy, uptight, impatient backers looking for Updates and SG's and EU. And we can/do judge because everyone's said everything before.
But for people not following the story, there's A LOT going on in here, and even with a constant repost of the kittencorp link (and some may not follow thinking it's linkspam), there's still a lot of wacky stuff to sift through. Especially if you're only looking for collected info on the EK project specifically.
Just sayin'
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-03T13:43:59-05:00
@Thunder: But we keep the updates in one spot we can point to when people come to ask, and I'm really glad we've kind of warded off most of the 'negative nancies' as it were.
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-02-03T13:44:09-05:00
That's actually why I do it! It's like a philabuster, when a politician goes on and on to prevent a motion from passing. The more we talk the less whining!
BruceP - The Chameleon 2015-02-03T13:44:58-05:00
@Creeper,
Here's what I just wrote up:
"As a master spy, The Chameleon realized an army of heroes would be needed to combat the
growing threat from Wicked Felina and her evil forces. He started to gather heroes from near
and far, and thus the beginnings of The Kitten Corps was formed.
The Chameleon gets his psydonym from his ability to blend in. He can fade into the background, virtually disappearing from sight. He can also blend in by looking like anyone else. He achieves this through a limited form of mind-control, or mass illusion.
To help in the fight against evil, and to aid in scouting for the Heroes, The Chameleon has by his side a small army of Chamittens, a hyrbid breed of kittens and chameleons. They can blend into their surroundings, as well as snatch cat nip out of the air from a distance of 10 feet. Having chameleon eyes, it is impossible to sneak up on them."
http://www.copyright.gov/fls/fl102.html
oh and the world of warcraft parady they did on south park was pretty good too
"Mom!! Bathroom, BATHROOOOM!!!!"
Well good day, crazy kittens. What's new?
#notmuch
@The Chameleon, Good day sir!
@Potatten, #iseewhatyoudidthere
I see Elan has confirmed something about the faces of the NSFW decks will be different so you can tell them apart. That's good to hear. :)
....but he also confirmed that the new faces will not be EU friendly.
Dang it! Someone thought I was dead and buried me while I was sleeping again!
Well, maybe you should start breathing when you sleep.

@Chameleon, the patches of obvious decay and exposed bone probably don't help, either
@DDD,
No, do we have a pic now?!
@Lord Zombitten, I hate it when that happens.
honestly I doubt they would come after you for that. Unless they can make money off of it they won't deem it worth their time.
@DDD,
Now I have. That's awesome! Thank you! :)
I do see the text for the Chamitten is on there twice, though. Editor!!!

@Wes
Dunno... 12,000ish?
@Wes: we keep the project posts updated here kittencorps.com
@Cheetah Butt. How do I get a bio to you?
The greater good
Wicked Felina was the one that suggested I splice Sphagnum DNA into the potattens™, I thought it was brilliant so now they're explosive and she now has minions that blow up.
@Wes. You're probably not going to live long enough to scroll that far. It's just that far down.
That's some greater good, fascinating science is where it's at.
Splodey potato kittens....For SCIENCE!!
INDEED!!!
That's really all the reason you need: to answer the one great question
Anyone noticed the three hashtags in the last hour? ;)
That's my character's reason at least....
I didn't know it was official uptight backer day.
#hashtag indeed
4
@BaKhan, I know, right? I guess you learn something every day
@LZ, even if we didn't want to!
Or maybe they're jealous because they feel like they walked into a party they weren't invited to, not realizing that everyone is invited
@LZ, and that's no micky talk!
Gotta make the Newbs feel welcome if we want this thing to grow. Of course if they can't play along... screw 'em.
That's right!
@PoT hear, hear!
Prof F would probably try to screw them either way...
Most definitely
Well that's him all over isn't BaKahn? Me, I'll see what I can do about whipping up some xanittens... xanax kitten might just be the way to go here... Don't know how practical they will be though...
@Cheetah Butt,
You here? How would you like our bio sent to you?
