Ask Someone Megathread

So, I though that SMP2's idea of an ask thread was pretty good, but to prevent a lot of ask threads spamming into Twatter, I decided to make one megathread.

So this is how things are going to happen:
  • - The person that wants to answer questions has to make a post here saying that you want to, and maybe add some other information.

    - The ones that want to ask a question to someone, have to ask like this:
    @*name of the person*

    *Insert question here*
Rules:
1. No arguments. (If you're going to do them, do it in PMs)
2. After your question has been answered, cross it out with the tag.

You can currently ask a question to
Single:
- LightningFire
- Qcode
- idiot9.0
- popcan12
- RWLabs
- rokit boy
- thunderflipper
- Turret Opera
- WillWare
- tesselode
- Chippy348
- drone36
- SMP2
- cavejohnson99
- FaycalMenouar
- Saso (IRC only)
- Jorichi
- xXxrenhoekxXx
- Pyr0saur
- samkostka
- Bonko
- mari0bros2
- Camewel
- pbalazs
- Assassin-Kiashi
- Sakura1221
- Kyle Prior
- LawnboyInAJar
- MrCytosine
- hatninja

Partners:
The New Modders (Qcode and BobTheLawyer)

Notes: Even if you answer questions, you can still ask questions to other people. You can talk in 3rd person if you want, but don't just start a roleplay or something. And I may add some more rules. You can stop answering questions at any time.

@Qcode

Why do you have motherducker as your avatar?

Also, updated OP. You can now team up with someone to ask questions, but they both have to agree.

Meh, not that anyone will ask, but I guess I'll answer some.

I didn't have an avatar for around my first 4 months of being on the forums. Once I saw the thread with motherducker I just added some words and decided that would be my avatar.

Anyone could ask me. And idiot, would you make character skins when SE comes out (I'm saying this because you had a huge hat gallery)?
(Popcan, you could've easily put that into one post.)

@idiot9.0 If Maurice gave you the chance to make sprites in SE, would you accept?

Popcan: I was 14 and stupid when I made it, and it just stuck with me wherever I've been online. I've thought of changing it, but too many people know me now as either "idiot" or "9.0" nowadays, so it's not gonna happen anytime soon. I like my name anyway though.

RWLabs: Most likely. I got started on a Cave Johnson a little while ago after reading another thread a little while ago, just not that much progress with him. I'm pretty sure I'll make more after SE comes out.

LF: Definitely.

@LF I quit being a Grammar Nazi just about when Saso posted on some thread about it. His comment (it was something about me not needing to correct every single mistake or something) made me reflect on my Grammar Nazi-ing. That kind of made me rethink being a Grammar Nazi. Then Turret came in. End of Grammar Nazis.

@LF, where do you get idea for your forum games??

@Turret, do you make 0 sense in real life as well as the forums?

A: @RWLabs Either by the internet or by mind.

Q:
@rokit boy Which is your stupidest post?

@TF Do you know who started the thunderfapper thing?

@Turret If Twatter Story didn't exist, what would be your avatar?

@RWLabs Are you planning on returning to Twatter Story? Or not?

@WillWare Is that the only avatar you've had?

@popcan12 Why do you have a hat as an avatar?

No, early on I had a set of the NSMB pipes in my tileset as my avatar. I can't imagine having anything different anymore. (This is the first forum I've been on where there are avatars; before I came I could only be found on Gamefaqs.)

1. Where did your username come from?
2. How long did it take you to make your avatar?

1. When I first got a DS, it asked me for a nickname, so I put in Phoenix, because that sounds cool. Then, when I started going on internet forums and stuff, I made my username phoenix0 (because Phoenix was always taken). I eventually realized, however, that any variation of Phoenix is quite overused, and so I decided to change my username. The word tessellate seemed kind of cool at the time, and my username is a variation on that.

2. I've been taking art classes my whole life* and have been studying a lot. This avatar is the latest demonstration of my abilities.

*no I haven't, and the avatar took about 10 seconds to make

@LF I had a character design but I kept putting off the art portion of it until forever. It's expected to be finished with Not Pacman's release. In any case I'll probably sit out Chapter 3 and rejoin in Chapter 4.

Why would there be partners? The only real partners on here are Saso and Maurice.
@LF You're second biggest poster, even though you joined late compared to the rest of us. Thoughts?

I have a hat, which is referred to as a Trilby, because it was off of this game I played, 5 days a stranger, in which the main character was named Trilby, so I looked online and found a picture of a Trilby hat and that's my avatar.

(PS: It's also my AAO (Ace Attorney Online) username...).

@Rokit Boy: Assuming from the fact that you still have Bitchachu as your avatar, I'm assuming you're still involved with the Pokemon project. So... progress? (Don't say that you've given up on it or I'll... um... yeah...)

I'm always ready to answer questions to anyone. May it be through PM's, IRC or this thread, (or anywhere else you can contact me) I'm very likely to answer them.

My questions:
supermarioportal2: How do you see yourself in the stabyourself community? (I don't mean this in a bad way, and please answer honestly)
Turret Opera: Same question as supermarioportal2 ^
WillWare: Do you like mazes as much as I think you do? And why do you like them so much?
idiot9.0: You have said you would try the IRC someday. Have you tried already? If not, then why not? If so, how did you like it?

@Jorichi-- No, I never have tried IRC yet. I honestly don't know why I haven't tried yet, seems like a usually good time.

@Renhoek-- Whatever happened to that Super Mario Bros. Special mod that you were working on? Is it just on halt or did you flat-out stop it?

It's currently on hold, if you check the thread title it says "super mario bros special remake *mods on hold untill SE* "
I need more modding experience as well, I just spent the whole day today trying to get that flag idea of mine (best of stab yourself mod) to work, I just then got it to display the the second flag and even then it wasn't in the right place.

so once I'm done with the "bosy" group map I'll get back to finishing the smb special mod and the smb2j mod.

Well, I though maybe some people would want to team up, and maybe make their team name.

Well, that's great, I guess.

Q:
@SMP2 Is it actually true the story that you gave out in the forums a long time ago?
@drone36 What is your avatar about?
@tesselode I haven't seen you since my first posts, since you left the forums. What made you come back? Or am I wrong?
@FaycalMenouar Same as drone36. Also, What made you pick your username?
@idiot9.0 Have you done any sprite art before joining the forums? If so, show us.

Yes. I have stacks of books of them made over eight years. It's not that I just like mazes in particular; I've always had a thing for making things. Mazes have just been one of the most easily accessible methods of creativity for me over the years. If I got a game with a level creator, I would drop mazes and make levels for it instead.

Which means that lately, I've been making levels for Mari0 instead of making mazes. (Although I did take a break to make this.)
