Of course! Jay is always willing to make new friends. Smiling

Sure! I'd be happy to answer

Sure! I'd be happy to answer any question you have.

First 3. Sorry, I'm just

First 3. Sorry, I'm just really curious about Jay. Laughing out loud
1. Why did you name him Jay?
2. What was his original set?
3. How did you come up with his current set? It's really original! Laughing out loud

No worries! I'm flattered

No worries! I'm flattered you are interested in knowing more about me. Smiling

1. When I first start The Endless Forest well over 2 years ago I didn't name my deer. The game wasn't very popular back then and the community site didn't exist. When I started going on the forums people just called me Jen, so he got referred to as 'Jen' or 'Jendeer'. As the game got more popular people thought he was female, so I took the first letter of my name, J (Jay), and decided to call him that since it is a little more original and not so feminine.

2. His very first set was the natural deer set, big white antlers, real deer mask and pelt. When I started playing fawns had not even been 'invented' yet, so I never was a fawn.



3. As time went on his set changed to the real deer mask with his current antlers and pelt. The first Halloween when then crying mask was released into the game I put it on him and it matched his set so well. I just fell in love with it!

4. Will you continue making

4. Will you continue making more diary entries? I read one of your previous ones and I really enjoyed it. Smiling
5. Do you go in the forest often, or only on special occasions?
6. Who was Jay's first friend?

4. I always plan to! It's

4. I always plan to! It's just a matter of getting my butt in gear and actually doing it!

5. I'm not as active in the forest as I used to be, mostly because I don't have a lot of free time anymore. Sometimes I like to go in spontaneously and see who is around. I also try to make it to parties and abios.

6. Jay's first friend was this person:

I only saw them a few times and we never chatted (no community site and I wasn't a member on the forums yet), but we were good friends in the forest. Smiling This was back when it was so exciting to see just another person the forest! I always hoped I'd see them again but I never have.

I remember seeing that picto

I remember seeing that picto in the forest a month or so ago. I can see if I ever any pictures. Smiling
7. You won't ever permanently leave TEF, will you? Sad
8. Who are Jay's closest friends?
9. What made you pick your pictogram? did it just stick out from the rest?
Sorry, so many questions. Laughing out loud

There is another picto that

There is another picto that looks so similar I've mistaken it for that one! If you ever do find them, I'd love to see.

7. I don't think so. It all depends on how the forest progresses and how I feel about it as I age. I don't plan on leaving permanently any time soon though!

8. Jay has a lot of good friends, I hesitate to name them off just because I know I'd forget to type one person if I ever made a list! His closest friend used to be LK when he was around, he doesn't play anymore though.

9. I think I remember picking that pictogram because it had a swirl in it. Haha!

10. What about 'bubblywums'?

10. What about 'bubblywums'? Is it just a computer username or is their an actual story behind it?
11. Have you ever drawn Jay? I've never seen your art.
12. How did you 'make' your avatar? It cracks me up. I love James Bond. Haha. Jay Bond. Laughing out loud

10. Bubblywums is my

10. Bubblywums is my username for just about every internet community I am apart of. When I was younger my mom didn't want me to use my real name on the internet so my alias was 'Bubbles'. Bubblywums was a nickname a friend gave to me. Smiling

11. I draw Jay ALL the time. I literally draw him on every single one of my notes at school. I never post my drawings online though, I'm not very good. I do have some drawings I did of other peoples deer: http://bubblywums.deviantart.com/art/TEF-Deer-Drawings-98045475

12. I photoshopped Jay's head onto a photo from the movie Mission Impossible (http://tinyurl.com/yk2v3t2). Haha. It was for a community game that I held here in the forest awhile ago, I didn't have the time to run it anymore.

Of course you're good; those

Of course you're good; those are great! Smiling I'd like to see more from you.
I'm running out of questions here! Laughing out loud
13. Where do you find Jay's theme songs? Or...how did you find them? They're quite lovely. Laughing out loud
14. Does/has Jay ever get/gotten angry? He's so jolly!
15. Does he have a past?
16. What program do you use to edit your screenies? Really nice!

Aww, thanks Suzer. I'm

Aww, thanks Suzer. Smiling I'm surprised you made it to question 16!

13. His first theme song was that Native American song, Red Hawk's Rattle and I discovered it on a CD I bought from Target. I love instrumental music and Native American music, so I bought the CD and upon listening to it, it reminded me of Jay. The second song, Prayer, was a song that I heard from playing the game Endless Ocean for Nintendo Wii. Hayley has a lot of music featured in that game and I love her music. It reminds me of Jay as well somehow.

14. I have enough drama in my personal life, I like to be able to come into the forest and share happiness and joy with my friends and other community members. If I wanted to run around like an angry lunatic, I wouldn't waste my time doing it here!

15. I don't tend to think of Jay as a character, but more as an extension of myself. He doesn't have a past outside of what he has experienced since being created back when I started playing The Endless Forest.

16. I have Adobe Photoshop CS4 since I use it for my photography.

I love The Endless Ocean,

I love The Endless Ocean, especially how you can just observe marine life. It is surprisingly similar to The Endless Forest, and I'm not just referring to the title. xD
Oh gosh, I can't think of anything else besides;
17. Whats you average fps in the forest?
I had so many other questions I forgot. Sorry for playing 20 questions with you. xD
