Welcome! 03/05/2016
Welcome, everyone, to the new 910CMX Community Forums. I'm still working on getting them running, so things may change. If you're a 910 Comic creator and need your forum recreated, let me know and I'll get on it right away. I'll do my best to make this new place as fun as the last one!

And I thought the Uryuoms were a bit far fetched!

I think Sarah has found a novel way to have "fun" with her spell without abusing other people and I applaud her solution.
Perhaps Elliot could use some advice? http://www.egscomics.com/index.php?id=1178

4 hours ago, HarJIT said:Noah with his hair down: http://www.egscomics.com/?id=1277
I didn't notice that on the way past it. That ... reinforces my opinion ... those are grace like antennae on the back of his head, not hair!
-
I bet myself the sum of 1 cookie that Archie turns out to be the alternate universe Noah, and that Noah's hair style is a convenient way to hide prehensile tendrils growing out of the back of his head.

2 hours ago, The Old Hack said:[...] the temptation to perform a given deed grows stronger in inverse proportion to the risk of getting caught [...]
It is in anticipation of that argument that I opened with "even if I was 100% sure I would get away with it" but I acknowledge your point.

3 hours ago, The Old Hack said:I'm not sure it can be rationalised. Maybe it is simply the level of temptation and the knowledge that you are not doing it in the real world but only in your head. That way it becomes a sin of thought rather than a sin of action, and churches and religions notwithstanding, it is hard to convince the self that they are the same thing. I personally would likely also find the temptation irresistible, for that matter.
A photo uses photons from the environment to make a record of the environment and I can then look at the record and see something I would not otherwise see.
Sarah's spell uses magic to make a record of the environment and she can then look at the record and see something she would not otherwise see.
Those are very similar and I don't think I find "thought vs action" a valid excuse here. It's more "magic vs machine". That still doesn't help me rationalize anything though. Maybe I'm just being irrational?
-
You know, even if I was 100% sure I would get away with it I wouldn't put hidden cameras in the shower and take pictures of people. That's just wrong.
If I had Sarah's mark, however, I'd abuse it so hard Pandora would blush.
I'm having trouble rationalising that.

You know, I made this for the strip slaying thread
but now that I think about it, Nanase can also change her entire appearance with illusions (http://www.egscomics.com/index.php?id=288) so she could put on a pretty impressive cheerleadra impersonation anytime she felt like. If her and Elliot took it in turns being seen with each other there'd be enough confusion to deny pretty much anything, with a probability of success far greater than 3720 to 1.

I think we need to assist Elliot with his "reasonable doubt" defence.

At the new year party Ellen said she had magic but "it would just make things more messed up" which tells us quite a lot about things she can't do.

I gave mild-mannered-mei the hair pin! I needed to be less subtle?

Given where he's looking I was going to go for "he saw Ted's mark"

38 minutes ago, Scotty said:Also there is three, Tedd said that even though it the spell changes his default form, it's not exactly permanent. Because it's a spell, if magic changed and he loses the spell, then it's likely Tedd would return to his original form.
If magic cuts down a tree it remains cut down after magic goes away, and Susan's swords can make a very real hole in things. Ted's spell appears to be able to change the world, not enchant the world, and I don't think magic going away would undo it.

I didn't see that one coming either. Kudos to Dan. Here's another thread to worry over:

Do you not read the NP strips? You probably should!

40 minutes ago, Scotty said:What gets me though, is if it was a jab at Elliot's "me time" statement back in Sister II, as far as I can tell this would be the first time Ellen's teased Elliot about it in what, 10 months since the incident? It just seems strange that of all the times we've seen Ellen tease Elliot, this particular tease hadn't come up before, so it didn't seem obvious to me
I made the joke. Me. Myself. Not Dan. I do not think Dan intended to make a joke about this. We've had a slight, um, humour ... malfunction ... but we're all fine here now. we're fine. How are you?

9 hours ago, CritterKeeper said:Ahem. I do believe it was a play on the term "wanker" as an insult, and/or "to wank" as a term for masturbation. "Obi Wan Ka-Elliot"
It was. I thought, especially since it's a changed spelling, that would be obvious! I suppose Obi Wan Ke Elliot would have been hard to say.
"Cheerleadra? Now there's a name I've not heard in a long, long time."

Gooood. Your hate has made you powerful! Now ... fulfill your destiny!
I dunno if Dan was conscious of it, but now I see it there is no way this scene didn't walk into his head out of star wars, especially with the amount he used to reference it on purpose in the early days.
I am an Uryuom, like my father before me...
