Jumpropeman: man, where would Mario be without Upside-Down Pipes?
Gooper Blooper: don't forget the most important mario character, Purple Yoshi
Draco: "Fantastic Firsts: Upside Down pipes" Okay, I guess those are good. "Poison mushroom" HUGE impact on the series, sure.
Gooper Blooper: I especially like the "Fantastic Firsts" listed for Mario Land 2, consisting of Wario and then a bunch of stuff they dropped forever after one game
Jumpropeman: I am just taking this image's word that 3-Up Hearts are a thing
Jumpropeman: cool kids get 3-ups from smiling moons!
Gooper Blooper: I played some Mario Land 2 when the Switch Game Boy app hit, can confirm 3-up hearts are real
Gooper Blooper: I think a lot of the weirdness of Mario Land 2's items comes from needing to be clear without using color, so you get hearts instead of one-up shrooms because you couldn't distinguish them from normal shrooms
Gooper Blooper: and Mario randomly getting a feather on his head when he's Fire Mario in this game only
Draco: What I really find funny is that Super Mario Bros 2 had more of an effect on the series than than the actual sequel to Super Mario Bros and it wasn't even originally a Mario game.
Draco: link
Jumpropeman: gotta love a feel-good story <3

The Art Of Gaming

"Ahhhh... Look at all of zis space! And for such a good deal, too!"

Spreading her arms as she walked around the building she had recently purchased, Palette took in the sight and let her imagination take over. It was stark and empty right now, but she imagined the building filled with the sights and sounds of people at work and play, and her heart soared. Her plans were ambitious, but she had received plenty of encouragement and support from Chimata and the Legion of Stationery to pursue her dream.

The Hardcade was remaining in Agama. The semi-breakups of the Sega Hard Girls and Nintendo Hard Girls, with many of them declining to follow the Kobbers to Europe, ensured that it couldn't come to Whalestrand in its' usual form. Rather than try to cram an arcade into the Journey's End, which was already both a lighthouse and a restaurant, or the Safe Harbor Inn, a new approach would be needed to adapt one of the Kobbers' favorite pastimes to Whalestrand.

There Was Life Here Once

The hunter approached the valley of death.

There was no sound but H'aanit's own footsteps and the whistling of the wind through the pines. She heard the old trees creak gently as their branches swayed. Looking away from them, she stared out upon the ruins in front of her, one hand reaching down to stroke the fur of her loyal pet, Linde the snow leopard. Nodding to her companion, H'aanit stepped forward and entered what was once a village.

They had been here before, but it still hurt every time.

H'aanit walked slowly and deliberately among the rubble, Linde following along behind, her footsteps silent compared to her human owner. Some buildings were almost completely demolished, while others were partially standing. One lucky cottage was almost fully intact, though H'aanit had noticed the paint wearing down over time, more unsightly marks appearing every time she returned. She gently placed a hand against the cottage's wall. If no one maintained it, this little house would eventually fall into disrepair. And there was no one left in the former village to do so.

Jumpropeman: yup
Jumpropeman: can't open worm game or outcasters now
Jumpropeman: Rest in Pastaroni, Stadia
Jumpropeman: shame because we were literally starting a multiplayer match in Outcasters before it... cast us out
Jumpropeman: seems 12:30 PT is a bit more of a hard cutoff as more people get booted
Jumpropeman: site still works in general though
Jumpropeman: look at all those games you can no longer play

Chatzy Madness Volume 405: Dawn's Lewd Stash

Jumpropeman: "I'm lost, come get me" the character I'm escorting says when he's like six feet away staring right at me
Draco: lol
AlternateChao: and you just left him there?
Jumpropeman: "You currently have 30 shares remaining"
Jumpropeman: my website has a plugin called Jetpack that gives me stats and stuff but also has a Jetpack Social setting I never touch. They apparently think they can get away with charging for posting your stuff to facebook on twitter for you V:
Jumpropeman: I could pay them for the privilege of getting more shares... or just like, copy paste my link over to twitter and facebook
Kuro joined the chat
Kuro: i'm lost, come get me
Jumpropeman: maybe it was a sort of existential feeling of being lost all along...
Kuro: yeah basically
Jumpropeman: explains why he did that like ten more times during the escort too
Kuro: at that point that escortee should have just clung to your leg like a scared child

Jumpropeman: sometimes I think "man I miss Korone" before realizing she's been streaming constantly so it's not like she went anywhere :V

Kira’s Sandwich Fiasco: Man
5 Kromer: The dubious honor

Rejected Characters Depot VIII

My god, has it seriously been five years since I've done one of these? Well, at least I have excuses! The shift toward massive collaborative plots like The Curse, Dark Matter, Salvagers, and Cardholders was pretty good at clearing the decks and even rescuing some of the rejects (former Depot member Lord Dominator found a sizable role in 2019 as an elite Curse member, and around the same time Byakuren rose up as a full-fledged protagonist as well!) and I've also used small cameos, minor roles, and Secret Fiter slots to give characters enough to keep them from being considered truly "rejected". However, five years is still a long time, and enough debris has built up - and enough time has passed for some of these guys that I'm pretty sure they won't make it to the forum - that I can finally cobble together a fresh look at rejected characters. So without further ado, here are some folks who've been on the backburner for so long I'm ready to scrape them off the pan and into the Depot.

Monumental Sheep gives self jumpscare with creepy art of Syzygy lurking in a tab
Monumental Sheep: I don't even need you!

RubyChao: it is always inherently hilarious when you do things like knock out a guy and drag his unconscious body across the room
RubyChao: all while someone else is there but not looking
RubyChao: in hitman i mean
RubyChao: just the energy of "hmm. i wonder what's on tv'
Jumpropeman: i mean, do YOU know the sound of an unconscious body being dragged?
Jumpropeman: maybe it sounds JUST like the wind
Big Man: RubyChao: in hitman i mean
Big Man: Incredibly important clarification
Gooper Blooper: This is not the first time Chao started talking about Hitman without clarifying he was talking about Hitman
Jumpropeman: one day we play hitman and realize it doesn't line up at all with what he's been saying
Jumpropeman: it's just been a cover all along
Kuro: chao is a murderer
