A patapon-exclusive LP? :o

Greetings raocow! Another great bandcamp/youtube musician: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p-WlEgn_pig" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p-WlEgn_pig</a> What is your favorite non-feline furry critter? What is the best flavor of parfait? A wizard offers to turn you into a slime creature, but the catch is that your skeleton doesn't turn with you and is very upset with you (and doesn't fall apart, because magic). Do you accept the offer? Who would win the raoslime vs. raobones battle? ...and the return of more RPG weirdness: The year is 1619 and your group of globetrotting adventurers find themselves in Khirima (kurr-EE-mah), the capital of a large kingdom in Nigeria, lured by stories of great riches. You discover that the treasures you seek lie on a plateau surrounded by a nearly impenetrable forcefield and filled with prehistoric monsters and the feral descendants of previous adventuring parties. Before embarking on a potentially lethal adventure you decide to party a bit, and then some more and more and more... The ground is shaking. No wait, that's you. Someone is shaking you, and yelling at you. He says that you saved the kingdom, and will soon be honored by a visit from the king. You have 20 minutes to learn all the formalities of such a meeting. If you offend the king, you will be imprisoned. If you do well, you'll be rewarded. How well do you perform under pressure while seriously hungover? How would your current character deal with this? This snippet is from the "Lamentations of the Flame Princess" adventure "World of the Lost".

Dear raocow, Wizard questions; Nonsensical words pulled out of a hat. drift away youtube.com/watch?v=0y37035PZpo 1. Some things are for the Greater Good, but what is the Greater Good for? 2. Would you rather be roomies with Mario or Wario? 3. What would you do with two extra arms that were each as powerful as your dominant arm? 4. What is your favourite Megaman shield weapon? 5. A powerful wizard invites you over to their wacky mansion (as all mansions have wacky shenanigans contained within) to play video games and eat pizza and things. However in the event you accept, it soon becomes apparent that this powerful wizard is actually a bad taste wizard. Like if you wanna play fighting games with the wizard your choices will be limited to things like Clayfighter and Tattoo Assassins. In addition, the wizard will consider normally reviled video games as the pinnacle of their genre while complaining very loudly at actual good games. What are you going to do? 6. What is your favourite waiter waiter joke? (Don't think I used this one before!)

Mikkofier

Traditionally Eye of Argon is supposed to be read verbatim, typos and all, possibly with helium for extra challenge/fun. But rao isn't a traditional cow so it's ok. Music? Yes: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=llKpTEkougw" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=llKpTEkougw</a> (play-them-as-they-come causes me to not care about durations for some reason) Questions? Also yes: 1) If you were a vending machine, what would you vend? 2) Books? 3) Dracula, Wolfman or Frankenstein('s Monster)? 4) Have you read any of the Hitchhiker's Guide to The Galaxy series? 5) What is the best music for making love? This question is as serious as you want it to be. 6) A powerful istar gives you a ring of invisibility. What do you do with it?

If you got a pet roto-disc, what would you name it?

Happy weekend to you, raocow! How are you doing? It's been a few weeks since this was brought up, so please excuse me if I simply missed out on it being mentioned; but has there been any further thoughts put into the "Edit a Let's Play video with raocow," like, asking people on the week before to hold/limit their questions and then spend the hour editing that day's let's play video? I remember it was brought up near the start of this project, but I don't remember any kind of conclusion being reached with it. If that is still a possibility on the table, I would be very excited to see it ;) And, I guess as a question to the patreon pat-a'-pons, is that something that people are still interested in? Because I know still very much am.

*little intro jingle, as to not interrupt the video* (aka; this doesn't need to be read aloud in the patreon video) Some of my favourite 'Waiter! waiter!' jokes are; Waiter, bring me something to eat and make it snappy. How about a crocodile sandwich sir ! AND; Waiter, is there soup on the menu ? No, madam I wiped it off !

raocow... It's fine that you refer me as Zach. Many people call me that. I think we've evolved our relations beyond mere formalities... The sudden playing of Kirby was hilarious, and wouldn't mind seeing more of it. Things are starting to get busy in my life. But you know what time it is? Impromptu poetry hour! Now follow 4 lines to these 4... See the bed as dust and every occasion is a celebration. Time flows as a river yet I cannot do the same. (This isn't going to be a very good poem, I think) Well, that's fine. Have a good actual non-ripped song this time! (the song from last week was just a rock remix of the 3D World jazz overtones; it was before SilvaGunner became a silly parody music channel) <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E1kKtcNYbr8" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E1kKtcNYbr8</a> THERE we go. Now we can have questions. (And get marked by Nintendo, perhaps) 1.) Since it's on my mind, would you still pick the Bowser's Castle from the N64 as your favorite if I told you this most recent version has a literal stone effigy of Bowser punching the track? 2.) What's the game that pulled off underwater mechanics the best (from the ones you know)? 3.) I... can't think of a non-sequitor right now! Can you help me with one? 4.) If you could fly the skies, what would you do first upon starting the day? 5.) When did the sky ever have a right to get blue? 6.) Two parts to this question. What is your plan with approaching this upcoming MaGL3,ifi you are? Secondly, this last part is actually a request. Can... you help me with my level? I feel that the clock's already against me with school about to heat up again, and my motivation with Lunar Magic being rather low... I understand if you refuse. Regardless of your answers to these questions of mine, I won't be offended. You have a great day, raocow.

I'm not up to date on the patreon videos, but a few weeks ago you talked about the problem of "coins and lives are useless, but not having them is boring". What I'm planning to do for my hack is to have new player skins that show only when you have the maximum amount of lives. (I think NSBMWii did a similar thing.) As long as the unlocked content is purely for fun and not gameplay-related, I think that might be a way to make collectibles more meaningful. Just my two cents, three weeks late. Also, are you aware that SMWC Production 2 is supposed to be released some time this fall, probably in zombie state? The Vanilla Contest 9 should be coming out sooon as well (and yeah, it's a collaboration hack). I was just wondering if and how those will fit into your schedule since all those voting shenanigans kind of made me lose track. By the way, are you letting Patrons vote on both A side and B side now? It's nice that you're giving us so much control, but please make sure to never stop doing things for your own sake. Don't let fun become pressure, alright? Just saying. :)

Chiming in again to ask if I could get a shout-out for my Pathfinder RPG blog, the Creature Chronicle? <a href="http://thecreaturechronicle.tumblr.com/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://thecreaturechronicle.tumblr.com/</a> I've recently started posting new content after a period of inactivity. Basically I convert monsters from D&amp;D to Pathfinder, including such classics as the beholder, mind flayer, carrion crawler, displacer beast, and so on. If any Talkhausers are Pathfinder GMs I'd be happy if my monster conversions could help them out :)

So, fun fact: the SilvaGunner channel is indirectly responsible for making me watch two things and becoming a fan of them. One of them is obviously Jojo. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aurg7F8xuJc" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aurg7F8xuJc</a> Questions for the question lord: 1. This week was certainly a news week! Very eventful things! Here is one of them: Friggin’ Shigeru Miyamoto on stage, at the Apple press conference for their new iPhone thing! A Mario autorunner game coming to iPhones, iPads, etc. in December of this year! Free to start! Absolute madness! Have we fallen into the despair of the darkest of timelines? 2. Pokemon Go, now a thing, on Apple Watches! At some point in the future you can catch Pokemon on your watch! You can control and capture eldritch beings that can secretly wreck the world and everything inside just by looking at your wrist! How long until the apocalypse and/or we get Yokai Watch on actual watches? 3. PS4k is actually PS4 Pro now! And it’s not actually 4k because it doesn’t have a 4k Blu-Ray Player, just 4k streaming! What terrible mistakes have been made to lead to this situation?!?!? 4. SilvaGunner also got me to watch Drive <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KemnVUHVOTw" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KemnVUHVOTw</a> 5. So you had a stream yesterday! How’d that go? I enjoyed witnessing the horrors of Snake in levels not designed for him! Infinitely spawning Pokeys and Rinkas are a terrifying concept, as is breaking the world when you die. Also, somehow Boom Booms became your worst enemy with their devious uppercuts.

(ignore previous post if you had gotten that, dang tricksy enter key) Man, more bad news, my late grandma's younger sister just died this week, though I've never met her, so I can't say I'm torn up about it, but all within the same time period is unsettling. Anyways, I think you're ready to race Pink in Kirby's Adventure, your strategy is unparalleled. And, I'm still up for a Let's edit a LP video, since you messed up the 1st one and only showed an overview (it was a Startropics 2 video if you don't remember). And, some good news, my birthday is on the 14th =). And And And, good thing my 'short time in jail' was just 1 minute, now I know who to trust *shifty eyes* MUSIC, lets try a different kind of spongebob <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZDV4MbBYdko" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZDV4MbBYdko</a> QUESTIONS, no preparation as usual 1. ♫Jeepers, Creepers, Where'd you get those peepers? Jeepers, Creepers, Where'd you get those eyes!?♫ 2. Given what you've told us of your childhood, I'm guessing when you were little, you had a nightlite. Do you still like to have some light when you sleep? 3. Do you like Parmesan cheese, since that's not anything like regular cheese, and is great with anything pasta. 4. Do you use a mouse pad? Does it have an image on it, or is it just a plain color? 5.♫ What will we do with a drunken sailor? What will we do with a drunken sailor? What will we do with a drunken sailor? Early in the morning!♫ 6. How often do you stop and think 'so this is what I do, I have the attention of 2000 to 3000 people for about 30 minutes everyday'. 7. How would it make you feel if you stopped trying to put effort into your LPs, but no one even makes a mention of it or notices. (like using save states and alot more non sequitur speak)

Good Morning Raocow, how are ya'll doing today? I'm sure your voice is getting a bit tired by now isn't it? Unfortunately this is the week I have a bunch to ask for no reason, and towards the end of the chain of comments, so I hope you're up to bearing with it! Some questions are more in-depth than others, but nontheless, I feel they are music-worthy: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DPNb0xEXQPY" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DPNb0xEXQPY</a> Unfortunately, this is "GilvaSunner," not SilvaGunner, so this rip isn't as high quality as some of the ones posted here. Hope you enjoy it regardless! -To start, whatever happened to Boot-Leg Old-Time Raocow? He was the best guy! Did he finally retire to a nice ocean-side home? -Do you think you could name every Game/RomHack/Fangame you've played purely by memory? Around what time does your memory start to get fuzzy? -I see you've started Kirby's Adventure, and that has me suuuuuuper excited! Might you consider attempting the "Infinite ability" Glitch in an episode? If you're unfamiliar, its pretty easy to execute. While you have the Sword, Parasol, Hammer, or UFO ability, simply press select and start simultaneously, and exit the stage. Doing so just right will allow Kirby to keep the ability forever even when he gets hit, until you either die or forfeit the ability with select. That means yes, you CAN use the UFO ability in the hub world and between levels! I've done this numerous times with my copy of Adventure, and I'd love to see you pull it off! If you do it with any ability that isn't the aforementioned four above, you'll be treated to a silly yet useless graphical effect. Try it out! -What is your opinion on video retention and viewership? Needless to say, traditional Lets Play videos have very much fallen by the wayside in favor of other formats. Your average view count ranging between 3 and 5 Thousand seems to be the sweet-spot for your videos in the current time of your Lets Play career. However, there was a time that many of your series' received tens of thousands of viewers each. Of course there is nothing you personally did to cause this change, it was just the shift in interest from Lets Play in General. However, had you the choice or control, would you still wish to have that same level of viewership, or are you happier with your tight-knit and "niche" audience that follows you more closely? -Lets talk Pokemon! I seem to recall you stating in your "Pandora's Box" series of videos that your favorite Pokemon is Marowak. A bit ironic considering your aversion to bones. But anyhow, in the newest installments of the series; Pokemon Sun and Moon, they have begun introducing variants of existing Pokemon with different typings and stats than the originals. One of these Pokemon is Marowak. Instead of his usual Ground typing, this variant is Fire/Ghost, and comes from a region based off Hawaii and is based off of Fire spinners. Im curious about how you feel about the design: <a href="http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/media/uploads/aug_11_assets/marowak-770x562.png" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/media/uploads/aug_11_assets/marowak-770x562.png</a> Or a Gif, if thats more your thing: <a href="https://67.media.tumblr.com/6d23b09b18c1fdc115fb09054ae680ba/tumblr_obrwaz8qMV1qb5qxmo2_500.gif" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://67.media.tumblr.com/6d23b09b18c1fdc115fb09054ae680ba/tumblr_obrwaz8qMV1qb5qxmo2_500.gif</a> -Next up, a partial question and request. I've been working on some character designs for a project that I will probably never actually complete, but I'm still curious to get your opinion on them. Being a fellow creative mind, and one I enjoy the work of a lot, I'd love to hear which ones stand out to you personally, and which ones you don't feel work. I am all open for critique. Of course this is all in Flash, and Flash has its limitations, being an animation/web design program and not an art program. However as base character design concepts, I'm curious how they each look the most appealing to you. <a href="http://i.imgur.com/21HXFaS.png" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://i.imgur.com/21HXFaS.png</a> -And last up, a question based on life-experience I've needed to ask for awhile now. After 3 years of hard work, I've officially started my proffered program in Medical School; Xray Technology. The road ahead will not be easy by any means, but the thought of it all has me a bit down lately. This new schedule eats up basically all the time in my day, from before the sun rises until it sets at night. The feeling of having little to no open time going forward scares and depresses me. I feel that I need the free time in my day just to relax and calm my mind to play games, watch videos, draw art, ect. I know as my schooling and career goes on, less and less of this will be available, and in the upcoming weeks will become fairly nonexistent. With you being a good 10 years older than I am, I have to ask, even back when you were working a "normal" job, how did you make the time to do the things you enjoyed? At what point were you able to put your priorities in order and set aside the things you loved for things that were just more important?

Hey Roo, glad to see you in pat-a-pon comments, huge fan of your older animatics, got a question for ya: What in the fuck did patreon do to your comment, dude? There's more cutoff than a low-rank SMWC Vanilla Contest level.
