Not enough angles!

But yes, you are.

[Name:]

Name: Pesty!

Age: 23

Female/male: Female

1. How long have you been involved in the AGS community?
Since the beginning of time! Seriously, I don't remember.

2. Why did you get involved in AGS?
Because I've always wanted to make my own games and AGS has made it easier for me to pretend that I do, in fact, make my own games.

3. How do you feel that the fact that AGS is a freeware program affects the community that has built up around it?
Well, there are a lot of people who are willing to use free things, aren't there? I think it attracts more people than it would a program you'd pay for, so we have to put up with new people ALL THE TIME. I think having to put up with new people affects the community in a serious way!

4. How big a part does the AGS community play in your life?
I USE AGS EVERYDAY. Ha ha, I'm just kidding. The AGS community is a footnote in my life. You bastards don't even deserve a whole chapter!
Okay, I check the forums, but not every day, and I only look for threads that interest me or seem like there is something I could make fun of in there.

5. Have you been involved in making any games using AGS? You may list them if you want.
Not any real games. I made the beginnings of a game for the OROW once, but it wasn't very good at all.

6. Answer these questions if you have been involved in making AGS games:

a. Were you interested in game design/programming before you started using AGS?
Yes, I made several text based adventure games in QBASIC that are fortunately lost in time.

b. If no, do you feel that you would have got into game design without AGS?
NOT ANSWERABLE.

c. Do you make games using other programmes, either freeware or not? How does the experience differ?
I don't even make games with AGS, let alone other programs. I've tried to make games with Flash. I think it's easier to make games in AGS.

d. Has AGS inspired you to try and take up game design professionally?
Well, yes and no. I came across AGS during a point in my life where I wanted to take up game design professionally, and the idea of AGS boostered that. I had all these pretty thoughts, that I could make my portfolio and use a game made in AGS to emphasize it, but my laziness overcame me.

7. Do you feel that there is a gender divide in the AGS community?
No, absolutely not. Okay, maybe a little when a pretty girl shows up and all the nerds are like "OMG OMG SEXY", but once they get over that, no.

8. Are you likely to feel differently about a game if you discover it’s made by a female? In what way?
You know, I should say I don't, but I do. I LIKE seeing games made by girls and I even think I'd be more inclined to download a game if a girl's made it, mainly because when girls make games, they tend to make them the way I like them. I don't know why!

9. Do you feel that AGS makes it easier for females to get involved in computer game design? In what way?
I suppose any free game making program like AGS makes it easier. Look at Inquisitive Stranger! She's FAMOUS ON THE INTERNETS and she doesn't even use AGS.

10. Do you feel that there is a difference between the types of games created by males and females?
Yes, in general. I suppose if I didn't know the difference between a game made by a male and a game made by a female, and you asked me to tell the difference, I bet I could. But it's not a bad or good difference, and it's nothing specific. They are just different experiences.

11. Any other comments?
NO.

I forgot to mention that the photo is a prime example of what I like to call the "Fat Girl on MySpace" technique. Overexposed, black and white, at an awkward angle, all of which are used by overweight goth girls with pimples to make themselves attractive.

Are you an overweight goth girl, Yufster? If not, can I have your number? WINK WINK. If yes, CAN I HAVE YOUR NUMBER WINK WINK?

AGS: Turning girls into lesbians since 1997.

I agree that dying in a reasonable situation where your character might die is the best way to go about it, but sometimes you just want to see a character die after the millionth "I can't do that" when you try something that makes sense and should work. You should've seen all the deaths I forced upon Laura Bow in my day!

I'm still in the belief that it is in fact a hat.

And glued on facial hair.(i'm actually getting my doubts about this after seing a pic of your dad)

* Pesty rolls up her sleeves.

The hat thingy. And the glued on facial-hair?

And what is s*are supposed to mean? You just made that up didnt you?

Listen, pal! I won't have you calling Helm's lovely up-do a "hat thingy", nor will I stand for you making accusations that his facial hair is fake in any way! Now apologize or we shall have to get into fisticuffs!

Have at you!

It is the interior of a trian! See the little blue guy is drinking tea. And the trian doesn't mind at all!

I couldn't find any pictures for you, so I used my extensive knowledge of trians and drew you one:

Heh, that's the benefit of being an ex-ice hockey goalkeeper... Being able to give blow jobs to yourself... though I don't do that very much, it's kind off odd, and my back starts hurting nowadays... But I should try that pineapple juice thing sometime Eh, don't take me too seriously here

What the hell, when did this thread become "spout off at the mouth about random stupid sexual things"! Were you people just waiting for a thread about sex to come along so you could crawl out of the woodwork with your weirdness?

No, ManicMatt, I refuse to humor you.

Good day to you sir.

TRANSLATION:


No, ManicMatt, I have no idea why I think you're a nerd.

Good day to you sir.

Okay, fine, you're not a nerd. Shut up now.




Nerd.

Nah some folks were calling me fat. I'm no more fat than I'm a nerd.

But please Pesty, humour me, what makes you think I'm a nerd?

No, ManicMatt, I refuse to humor you.

Good day to you sir.

Am I supposed to be insulted by being called a geek and a nerd? According to some people on the net who have never met me then, I am a gay, fat, star wars-porn loving nerd.

Where do you even find fat g*y star wars porn?

Do a search for 'gay jabba the hutt pictures' and I bet you could find something. The internet has everything!

No, of course you're not supposed to be insulted. Me stating that you're a geek is no more insulting than you calling me a woman. IT IS A STATEMENT OF FACT. Also, I put asterisks in geek! That makes it all better, right?!

I'm sorry, I will never drop that joke, nor will I ever let you live it down.

Holy cow why do I have to choose a winner? I love all the cutey monsters!! But if I had to decide the most cutey monstery sprite I'd have to say Jess wins Jess wins Jess wins. I love his sweater! And he's sitting on a piggy guy! If it were any cuter, it'd explode.

Seriously, though, holy cow. Awesome, awesome entries. I think the true winner of the sprite jam is me!

I HAVE INVOKED THE WRATH OF MANICMATT. OH NO WHAT WILL I DO NOW. HIS NERDY ANGER SEETHES THROUGH THE INTERWEB AT ME.

I think I could win every single internet argument ever with that one line.

Alas no, for I say to you, GOOD DAY TO YOU SIR!

Don't milk it, geek.

Oh, sorry, I mean g**k.

I think I could win every single internet argument ever with that one line. Which I think makes me all powerful.

And also the devil?

Oh, it's on now, sucka.

My momma wouldn't disagree because I don't believe you've met her. She's a lovely lady, though, I think you'd like her.

Also, you're a fat and smelly nerd.

Bad jokes you say?

Does anyone know why six was afraid of seven?

Spoiler

BECAUSE SEVEN EIGHT NINE!!!!

...Ohhhh. I just lost all my friendsÃ,  :'(

Don't worry, you didn't have any in the first place.

OH SNAP.
