So this frog walks into a bank...


A frog goes into a bank and approaches the teller. He can see from her nameplate that her name is Patricia Whack.

Heads up on recent activity...


I have updated Rhys and the other computer to the new beta of the forest 3.4.
I have also submitted myself for the 'special new feature' testing.
Rhys was dressed in the Dotd/kabuki mask/candles since the version on this computer cannot cast the monarch pelt.

I believe he is currently sleeping/sitting on the bridge in the forest on the desktop.
Edit: One of my friends is moving him around so he may or may not be dancing. I'm not quite sure what is going on over there.

As far as my haphazard inactivity:

Classes are starting on Monday so my activity will be a bit crazy for a while until everything is settled in.


Other news:

I caught a sinus/ear infection from my mother. I woke up two days ago and could not hear a thing. I had my father phone the doctor's office and they believe the infection may have caused me to lose the rest of my residual hearing OR my ears could just be deeply clogged but they will not know until I can visit the doctor.

So expect my deer to be slightly unresponsive. I can no longer hear if someone is mooing for my attention from the other room so I might not notice someone wants to play until I actually look up or walk past.

I also cannot hear if someone sends me a message on a messenger so I may miss messages until it is blinking at me in the corner.

Otherwise business as usual over here and I'm gonna start working on relining/scanning the rest of the fan art on Sunday.

Hope this hasn't inconvenienced anyone too badly.

I'm Back

Back home for a bit.
Don't expect me to be in forest really since I have a few birthday errands to run and no access to that computer.

Maybe tomorrow or when it hits the week

works in progress [scribbly sketches ahoy!]

Collection of extremely rough sketches I just finished to throw on the computer under the cut.
Not sure when they'll be re-lined/coloured but I got this far at the least.
lazy scribbly hooves/limbs are lazy.

Notice about slow reaction/'ignoring' in forest


Just a heads up that my deer will be slow to react in forest right now.
I am playing a version of TEF that does not have hotkeys so it takes quite a while for me to switch between the menus.

I also can't see any of the carnival sets so there is a good chance if my deer is *ignoring* yours I really just can't see you.

I also don't believe I can see new pictograms. I can interact with your deer fine, I just have no idea who you are.

My current version of TEF is on the other computer which is in use so I'm banished to the past.

Unfortunately/Fortunately [Word Game]

I figure this will keep anyone browsing the site entertained.
We're going to tell a story one post at a time.

The format, however, is going to be:

Start of story

[continuation unfortunately]
[continuation Fortunately]
[continuation unfortunately]
[continuation Fortunately]
Example:
Billy was walking the forest...
next comment: Unfortunately, he was attacked by a snake
Following comment: Fortunately, it was a rubber snake
next comment: Unfortunately, it was covered in REAL SNAKES!
Next comment: Fortunately, he was able to run away...
so on so forth. Sticking out tongue

Feel free to throw in cameos of characters/landmarks/places in forest etc. This is TEF after all. Eye

Starting sentence:

It was the fawn's first day in the forest...

Ridiculous mini contests for Doodles!

[=11]

First contest:
Figure I'd give a heads up on why I havn't been around.
I am undertaking a larger scale 40 page papercraft project again.

In this case, a model of a on time and probably final appearance lady in a long running franchise wearing a special outfit.

Figure I need to gather deer to doodle while I am on the train to Chicago so we'll turn it into a mini-contest.


Guess the character I am building!

Winner will receive a silly little picture of their deer.

First three hints have already been posted in the choice of words used.
Hints will be periodically posted whenever I glance back.


This contest is now completed!
