You know? Sometimes is good to laugh of yourself...
I'm the typo master. It has annoyed me often, but it's my fault, I've been the man who never really worried about learning how many "p" the word opinion has.
It's time to sollute that... In this week you'll have to opportunity to bring back that mistakes. Paint in the following frame...
(http://www.2dadventure.com/ags/SpriteJamAprilSheet.gif)
...Something that can turn into something completely different because of one typo... The funnier, the better, but remember that the correct sentence has to be at the left and the uncorrect has to be written at the top, on the right space.
Have in mind that I'll punctuate... 100 points as much for the sprite quality, and 100 as maximus for how fun it is for me...
Each letter over the typical one-word typo will result in minus 5 points...
For example: If the sprite consists in me confussing shIp with shEEp (a two letters typo, instead of one) the maximus punctuation will be 195.
If you don't really like the topic, (you are "PirateJackish", we could say), the theme will be "SPORTS"... Feel free to paint an epic sprite of a sportman! (But have in mind that the maximus possible punctuation will be 180, my sprite jam, my rules, so, if you wanna win think in funny typos). Also have in mind that the size for this will necessarilly be smaller (100X100) as there's only one sprite to paint, not 2.
No more restrictions, animate them, use all the colors you need... and good Sprite Jam.
EXAMPLE:

P.S: All the spites will be punctuated ASAP, and you will decide the final winner if draws.
P.S.S: The typos can also consist in omitting letters, of course...
here, a quick one (happy now? ;))

I am very happy for this nice first entry!
Inkoddi has reached the following punctuation:
Tecnical level: 87
+
Originallity: 75
=
162.
Penalty (-0)
TOTAL: 162.
(http://www.2dadventure.com/ags/gaurd.PNG)
I know its not that good lol
ROTFL!!! YOu made a typo in the "Farlander's typos Sprite Jam"!!!
Your Guard... Is called "Gaurd"...
Ok... let's see...
Tecnical level: 62
Originallity:68 (A guard for sale is quite hilarious...)
=
130.
Penalty (-5)
Total=125.
Great entries so far! Now, gotta go to bed, but keep posting! :D
What's the dead line?
I had an idea for "Papa Smurf" -> "Pop a Smurf"... but it turned out too gruesome... I'm working on something else.
Till April 18th. now in topic, excuse me. :)
Yay!
My first entry in the Sprite Jam!
Saw this in General today, an I just couldn't help myself.
(Kind of nervous about misspelling anything here...)
(http://home.no.net/thanma/the_cell/sindrome.png)
Wow Farl, you impress me. This is the most innovative sprite jam ever.
YOke, that was hard to catch! So... there is a dome where Peter Pan and the others commit sins! that's pretty nasty! ;) I should have included an over-score for using real typos, but I'm pretty angry against you now, so... ;D
Unfortunately, I have to consider that this is a two-word typo. :-\
Let me see...
Tecnical level: 87.
+
Originallity: 80.
=
167.
Penalty(-5)
TOTAL: 162.
Oh! We have a draw till the moment! Let's wait if someone reaches the top...
P.S: Thanks Pirate Jack.
Not very good :/
(http://www.2dadventure.com/ags/SpriteJamAprilSheetCustard.PNG)
Ah! the joke is quite good, and, indeed... changing "hello" by "hey! hooker, how's it going?" is quite funny, it deserves a high punctuation, but undestand that the overall will necessarilly be less than thw two guys leading, this are ripped graphics (Which is ok for games, like MI 1.5 don't missunderstood me...) ;D
Technical level: 40.
Originallity: 95.
=
135.
Penalty(0).
TOTAL=135.
Good work! and have in mind that nobody reached more than 162... A supperb sprite about sports could reach 180 and win... have it in consideration if you can't think in a typo...

As witnessed in this old thread ... HERE (http://www.agsforums.com/yabb/index.php?board=8;action=display;threadid=11993)
Not my best effort ... but I'm ill :(
Most improbable typo EVAR! (http://eggie.sphosting.com/balls.gif)
EDIT: Not an entry (http://eggie.sphosting.com/thehell.GIF)
Okeydokey, here goes...

(http://www.2dadventure.com/ags/spritetypo.gif)
Great entries, but the one that made me laugh most hase been Darth Mandarb's, because it is a REAL FARLANDER's typo and I remember it... clearly... Painfully clear... :-[
(Confussing Painfully with Fainfully is not a typo, just the effect of posting very, very late!) >:(
Unfortunately for Jeremy, it's very known by everybody that he is my friend (A very close one...) and he's not going to be compete, sorry... :'(
Eggie's joke is nice, a little bit nasty, but cool... but being as good as some others, I can't really say it reached its tecnical level, sorry... :-\
Tec: 65
+
Ori: 70
=
135.
Penalty(0) yeah, it's needed to stroke twice to make that typo, but one was the space bar, and he was not going to win in any case, so, I've been gentle...
TOTAL=135.
Rincewind: Also, very funny and imaginative, and well solluted tecnically... It does not still reach the level of some previous sprite jams, but it definitelly deserves a good note.
Tec=75
+
Ori=70
=
145, with no penalty...
PS: Somebody is annoyed to receive points? Maybe is a little bit cruel to loose all the hopes of victory too soon? I think it's quite fair and appealing, but if someone does not lie, make me know...
(I meant... someone reasonable, no nippled signature members)
There are two typos here, I don't know if that's allowed, but they are really common mistakes, and I think I've seen you make them Farlander. Are you sure it was a good idea to start a thread where people point out your errors?
I feel like I'm being unkind.
(http://www.2dadventure.com/ags/typo.gif)
The animation is a little more manic than I intended. And the blue dots don't look much like sweat beads. Never mind.
This could very much be the most pathetic piece of art I have ever done in my life:
(http://www.2dadventure.com/ags/sobadikillsomething.png)
I am sorry you had to see that.

I am sorry you had to see that.
Yes, but your new name more than makes up for it. I love it...
I remember making a typo like this one when I went to English classes.
(http://www.masterfxgames.com/Garfield/brake.gif)
PS: Do you say make a typo or do a typo or what?
Ali... Of course it's a good idea to have some fun on my own... and I am learning! I was sure that when you can't find something you were "loosing it"... Thanks to your entry I won't commit that mistake again! :D
here you go, not a hard typo to make (especially when your drunk ;))
(http://img18.photobucket.com/albums/v54/oversizedchicken/tinywinkie.gif)
Tinky Winky - Tiny Winky
*edit* about the legs and background, it was late and i was tiered of looking at pictures of tiny winky .... err i mean tinky winky ;)
-OSC
Now here it comes the time for the punctuations:
Ali:
Tec:78
Ori:70
Which is equal to 148, minus 5 for being a two-letter word typo (It's in the rules Ali, read them again...) so we have 143.
Kairus: Your mother tongue is Spanish isn't it? I've had problems with that words too... I think it should be unfair to penalty that your entry is a 3-letter typo word, because that tow words sound the same... It's very in the spirit of the topic, and it made me laugh... This is very subjective, I know, but I am going to rate the originallity with a 80...
Tec:70.
Ori:80.
That makes 150 with no penalty, I explained why before...
OSC: I don't really understand why winky becomes angry when tiny... It should have been funnier IMO if you painted him vert little, maybe rounded by the other teletubbies or something... so, here it's my ratings:
Tec:70
Ori:65
That makes 135 with no penalty...
So, is someone going to beat the co-leaders YOke and Inkoddi? Come on!
P.S: You'll be able to start voting for breaking the draw (if it continues) in friday...
farl, winky is another word for penis rite. so if its tiny penis, instead of his normal name tinky penis then he's guna be pretty pissed that someone said he has a small dick.
you get it now?
-OSC
Okay I Made two Based on typos in this very thread!
(http://www.2dadventure.com/ags/max.gif)
Hehehe butt joke
(http://www.2dadventure.com/ags/clear.gif)
Hahaha you get it? you cant see the change cause it is clear :-\ ...... Its Funny.....hahaha.....I'm so lame ::)
Mmmm... I get it OSC, but I don't see it as a winner... sorry... but, he... :)
nah, dont worry farl. Like i said i wasREALLY tiered
great entries so far though
-OSC
This started as a comment that "punctuation" wasn't the same thing as "score".
(http://www.mccrea.demon.co.uk/step/ags/punktuation.gif)
hehe... yup, in spanish "puntuación" works for both (score and puntuation), but, as most was I using it in this thread, less sure was I that it works in English for "score"... That was good, let me think in the SCORE...
Steve Funny... But there are better tecnical entries... 145.
CPage: That was not a typo, as seen inthe edit, I did that post at a very nasty hour... I thought it was a misstyping, but he... the "p" is faaaar away from the "F"... I guess I was very sleepy.
your ranking is: 135.
(http://www.sylpher.com/DGMacphee/Photoshop/SpriteJamAprilSheet.gif)
Oh... this has been the funniest and tecnically the best entry so far... unfortunatelly the penalty of -20 makes it fall to the sencond place!
:-\ Mmmf... Sorry about that Daniel... ;D
That's okay, I knew I wasn't going to win cause the competition was rigged.
That and politics. Always politics.
Great joke, bad drawing...

P.S: Note the lens flaer
Here it is mine! but I won't be ranked, because this week's host is my boyfriend... :'(
It is inspired in a sticker I saw, with a sheep using its own wool as a parachute...
(http://www.2dadventure.com/ags/SpriteJamAprilSheet_Lore.gif)
Farlander has helped me a lot little, yelling to me because I was not doing it well...
Lorena.
:-*
Heh, my wife used to have an English pronunciation book and tape for Spanish people called "Ship or Sheep"... and the stereotypical movie mexican says "Here eeet eees"...
On the other hand, I get a good excuse when my wife asks for keys! ;)
Haddas: That Jell-O picture is awesomely hilarious if you imagine the guy in it to have your avatar as his face. In fact, I am chuckling to myself right now at the thought it. I mean, c'mon, it's like;
"Oooooooh, Jello!"

privateer puddin's post reminds me of this rest in pieces joke.. too bad..
Does missing a letter counts as "typo"?
(http://www.hot.ee/increatorgamez/sjam.gif)
Privateer Puddin's first entry is the best, IMO!

Does missing a letter counts as "typo"?
Actually, I think that's closer to the actual definition of a typo.
Well, in his example, Farlander *changed* a letter, not *missed* it.
Missing letters also count as a typo, it's my second Post Sript in the first post...
I am "tyred" of scoring... tomorrow I'll give them all... the "punctuations"...
"Greet" entries, BTW...
(http://www.2dadventure.com/ags/SpriteJam.GIF)
I like fiddling with my diction. :-X
That's really good, Frisby.
I must say - as funny as everyone else's was, I do appreciate the subtle difference of a comma! Great work!
And yes, I'm happy...
I had enough of rating... I have feeling you know!?! :'( I can't rate you!!!
I can't really decide, but Firsby is leading...
SEMPRINIIIII!!!
Quote
SEMPRINIIIII!!!
OUT!
DG was leading, because it was obviously the best, because of the penalty.
Lorena was also going to win, but she is my girlfriend and it would have been suspicious. ;D
M0ds entry has been the funniest IMO, but:
Mr. Frisby wins, because it's best balance with tecnica and humour.
Thanks for all the maravelous entries. :)
Wow - I can't believe it - DG youse was robbed. I wet my pants when I saw yours . Hmm What to do for the next one . .
Anyway I liked all the entries this weekand don't envy Farlander in having to choose. This is why it is bad to have such a fun and interestic topic - you get so many people hating you for not winning (if I had not won I would have had to stalk and kill Farlander (lucky for him)) - This is why I vow to keep up my tradition of boring stupid Spritejams that no one enters - its just easier that way :P.
