Keenime Spring Break? or KeenHearts?

[ZOMBIE USER 12729]

Oh yeah. do you think any comic character girls would be interested in dating a half dog demon/half elf boy that looks like he's 18. Cause then i would use him on the dating thing.

[JJcareksims]

My comic is mostly girls in it O.o but I dunno about this dating thing. I pretty keen on the Keenspace SprinkBreak thing.

[Karlie]

the dating game sounds like fun. so does spring break...both would be cool

dateing game would be entertaning bacause a major trait of the main characters is that none of them could get dates if their lives depanded on it (AKA none of the charcaters are getting more action that the artist) it's a very cool idea

star warior- how about a half demon girl, who by day looks like a normal human trying to make it as an actress.

Thanks for the idea. I may use it for something.

Actually, I believe that the system should be a blind-dating service. That way, my character Uber could somehow, through a horrible glitch in the system, get hooked up with a 300-lb biker guy named "Clarice."
>_< (Yes, it takes all my willpower not to scream and run in terror at the thought of that, too.)


Now, odd marriage couples would be a fun one.

Hopefully noone gets saddled with "Clarice."

Why did you have to post that. Now I'm going to have nightmares about that happening to one of my characters. :shudder: The thought is too painful to think about.

she's a somewhat spastic half demon/devil girl, 19 years old. might be fun to see her set up with another half demon... hm...interasted??

It doesn't sound like a bad idea. But he looks only 18 he's really about 1800. So why not? His name is Kai. I forgot how to spell his last name. Sorry I can't give you a picture though.

*Hopes that everyone fully understood that his last post was all in fun*
o.0

Question is, how would the dating system be set up? Random, hand-picked, or something else?

[Shane B]

Random. Whoever ends up in charge just gets the characters age and their sex. The real problem is, who would draw the comic? We'd have to put up a system like "whoever has the male character," though that seems biased. Maybe everyone should just submit a character, and then that character is sent to a person. That other person does with that character what they will, on and on and on... well, that doesn't seeem too good either. Aw hell, someone else try to think of something.

[ZOMBIE USER 11832]

Hmm... I think the random idea would work. Just send the two comic artists a notification, a link to the other comic, and the character names, and have the better of the two artists do the strip. That seems the best way, and not only would it look good, but would increase readership to all comics involved in the event.

[Narddude]

I'm liking this event very much so. Especially Uber's idea. I think that doing it his way would yield optimal results. Anyway ...

*continues to sit here waiting for an official announcement about the event*

[ZOMBIE USER 12729]

Well now I'm torn between the two ideas for this event. It would be fun to see which characters get paired up with another, but I could easily draw a nice spring picture with my characters possibly. What to do?

[ZOMBIE USER 11832]

Well... That's up to Electronblues. ^_^

[Electronblues]

Sorry that I haven't had a chance to post sooner. Hmmm.... with the dating one I don't see any reason why both artists couldn't do one. Each artist can pick the characters that they want to use, and it'll be cool to see how different or similar their approaches will be.

My only worry is how long everyone has to work on this. I get the feeling that for this year, Keenime Blind Date will probably be a more informal event because there really isn't time to advertise it. It will definately require everyone to sign-up by a deadline, so I can pull names out to pair. I need to know exactly who wants to be involved, because it's only a month until Valentine's Day. People can email me or post here by Feb. 1. (Final submissions would have to be in by Feb 9, so I don't think anyone would want to cut it closer than a week to do their piece.) I'll need the following info:

Name you want to be identified by:
Name of comic:
URL of comic:

The sooner I hear from you; the sooner I can pair you, and you can start working. If I hear from you this week, you'll have a good month to figure it all out. The page would have to be posted by Feb. 10 to run for Valentine's week, so that makes 10pm EST on Feb 9 the date submissions have to be in by. If not enough people are interested, we'll either have to move the event back away from Valentine's so that we can advertise it or we can hold it off until next year.


Max file size of 400K, and no pornography are the only restrictions I'd make. I'm pretty flexible.

Hmmm... Uber, we may have to rig up something special for you since Slixxor is down at the moment. Just so whoever you get paired with can find out about your characters to do a drawing too. It can probably be settled with just an email or two.

The spring event is a definate go. I'm figuring on it running the week before Easter, so that would make April 13th the deadline. Then if Bryan would be kind enough to put a link on the dropdown for the week starting Apr. 14 that would be awesome. I'll put up a more official announcement as soon as we have more squared away on the Keenime Blind Date.

[ZOMBIE USER 12729]

If that's the case, then I'll sign up right now. But I haven't gotten my site yet which is a major set back. But I'll give you the URL anyway in hopes that I get my site before then like I was expecting around the time of FCW.
Comic Name- Guardian Elements
Comic URL- http://guardianelements.keenspace.com
Oh yeah. Just so you know so you can pair up better, I plan to use my dog demon elf boy Kai Izuruha.
*****EDIT*****
oops i forgot to put my name! um just put either Noong Yue or StarWarrior. either one is good enough.

[Shane B]

Hell, my site's too down for this, but I guess I'll give it a shot. My comics, or at least a portion of them, are currently viewable at the very low-tech, very bottom of the barrel site http://www.drunkduck.com/Elijah_and_Azuu , and if I somehow manage to get my real site working before the deadline, I'd enter the female character, Fraja, into the mix.

[ZOMBIE USER 11832]

Well... Hopefully by the time I'm paired off, my other scanner (A working Umax Astra 1220 P I found at a thrift store for $6...) should be working and functional.
(Question is, how to convert the LPT or Serial cables to USB 2.0 ... nah.)

But yeah, I'll sign up for it.

Name: Uber
Comic: Slixxor v.2.01
Url: How should I know? (Possibly http://slixxorv2.keenspace.com after submissions are being accepted again, otherwise it may be temporarily up on an Angelfire or Geocities site with the Keenspot comic system [because I'm a poor bastard. lol ])

The email idea should probably work. I already have sketches for the characters done (4/10 so far...), but the characters I'd use in the event are finished.
And surprisingly, my new comic's already getting a little publicity on programs like WinMx and Starcraft by word-of-mouth about the storyline and old sketches... I need to get a site ASAP before I get an angry horde of orcs after me... >_<

[ZOMBIE USER 2125]

all of these sound very promising, electron blues, although it would have been nice to have a little more time for the upcoming event. What would be good is if you started new threads, one for each event, and see if you can post it as an event. That way, people in the forum will be able to cleanly find all the information they need for the event. Also, posting earlier is also for the better; even the spring one that won't be for a while can be announced soon, giving people a lot of time and flexibility to participate.

Also, if you have anything definite, don't hesitate to email me and let me know, so I can check my schedule and fit you guys in to the advertising.

CHEERS!
