REQ: Nerd Boy strips :)

REQ: Nerd Boy strips :)

alt.ascii-art · 18 messages · 30 Dec 2001 - 10 Jan 2002
I've been considering having a guest artist week, when I would "publish"
(here and on the website [http://nerdboy.n3.net]) whoever that wants to make
a Nerd Boy strip.
   Why? Well, I thought it might be fun, and people seem to enjoy making
Nerd Boy strips for some odd reason or another. Besides, I seem to be
getting hits from strange places such as the City of Heroes (an upcoming
on-line game) forum and the SystemRoot.org forum, so this could be a nice
way to introduce the a.a-a community to people who have probably never heard
of it before.
   To that end, I'll include a link to every guest artist's
homepage/website/e-mail address, and it might be nice if you let your own
style influence your contribution. You could even have a cameo appearence
yourself! (Yes, I'm looking at you, VK.)
   The only requirement is that it is somehow related to Nerd Boy and that
it's around 72 characters wide. Oh, and that it's ASCII art.
   I actually already have a contribution from Peter "lastfuture" Marquardt,
so there are only 6 spots left, people! :) Let's see if I can scrape
together a whole week's worth of contributions... If I get more than seven,
I'll just have to call it an "extended, non-standard week" and it wouldn't
show up right on everyone's calendar or something...
   E-mail me with your contributions. :)

Timofei aka "grue" has sent me a strip! Only five to go. :) Oh, and please
add your sig to your stuff.

I now have three out of seven strips. Just four more. I'm impressed! At this
speed I can have guest artist week next week. :)

Six strips have been handed in! I only need one more, and the guest artist
week will be complete! This is so cool. :)

Finished! I have seven strips. :) If anyone is in the middle of making a

though, I'm satisfied. :)

Um, does the word "week" mean anything to you? :) Next Monday through Sunday
(that's where a week begins and ends in this country), the guest artists'
strips will be published on my website. That week-end, the strips will be
posted here. Yes, that means I won't have to do anything for a whole week.
:)

Of course! I should have known - a good story writer always leaves at
least one question unanswered.

Um, no. The answer is right there: He can only move in two dimensions.

He is able to move left-right and up-down but not backward-forward. The
roads he would like to go are placed in that third dimension (so he
can't follow them, and is forced to take the roads he does not want to
go).
