Hunk of Steef 04-13-2005 07:00 PM

I wish Stranger would have got a moon.

Dipstikk 04-13-2005 07:11 PM

The moon is a quintology thing. Abe and Munch already have two moons.

Now, it seemed corny when Munch got one. You want a third moon for Stranger? And with what? A hoof print? Nah, come on. ;)

And besides, take into consideration that moons control...planety...stuff. Like tides. Mudos would be underwater with that many moons.

We're gonna run out of moons quickly. And do you know how hard it is to keep burning those foot and hand prints into the moons with a laser?!

Hunk of Steef 04-13-2005 07:20 PM

The Ow laser of doom is more powerful than you think, Dipstikk.

one question, was there anything official saying that the quintoligy had to involve the past characters of the quintoligy and get their own moons?

Seriously, are you new members intentionally ignoring the sticky thread called ‘New Members: Please Read’? Don't bother now, it's in need of an update, and I'll be providing it within the week.

Hunk of Steef 04-14-2005 06:29 PM

The new members thing has Q and A? Sorrrry.

I'm working from memory from a number of years back (probably the old oddworld.com) but I vaguely remember a story Lorne told about someone from GT who hated Oddworld so he set up a meeting between his boss and Lorne (hoping the boss would be disappointed and cut OWI's budget). The boss ended up being so impressed that he increased OWI's budget at the expense of that guy.

Is that my memory playing tricks on me or did this really happen? Does anyone have the original version of the story for me to reread?

Hunk of Steef 04-24-2005 06:56 AM

I don't remember that but I also never used to get on the internet so I probably just missed it. Sounds interesting, though.

big bro boogie 05-06-2005 07:59 AM

well, i guess not, for evrybody assumes there will be no future game of oddworld(maybe fangus though).
Or it all just has to be a filthy lie.

Edit: WHOOPS DIDNT SEE THE PAGE NUMBERS!,(silly ol' me)

never heard of that... but I wan't realy around during the GT era

kjjcarpenter 05-07-2005 07:29 PM

Where is Molluck hiding in Oddworld now cause it would be to dangerous to hide at Rupture Farms with Maggie on ya back.

Gretin 05-07-2005 09:30 PM

I don't think he is hiding, I heard on the forums that he was awaiting trial...
Someone who knows will answer this soon, though...

kjjcarpenter 05-07-2005 09:45 PM

Thanks for that information but do you know why he is on trial. Im not sure but is it his fault that all these things happened to mudos.

nicksmith41 05-08-2005 07:02 PM

well chirpy I think he is on trial because its his fault he didn't stop abe, and now that abe is loose on oddworld the industrialists are screwed and they blame mullock for not stopping him.

Nate 05-08-2005 08:22 PM

*SPOILER* He isn't awaiting trial just yet, but he was meant to in MO as explained on the bonus DVD.

So for now assume that he is missing presumed dead.

Gretin 05-08-2005 08:45 PM

Thanks for that, Nate_dog_woof, I haven't got that DVD at present, so I was just going by what I've heard.

ANN NEELY 06-15-2005 08:07 AM

Have female Steefs actually been officially announced, or is it something we've made up?

Oddish 06-15-2005 08:13 AM

No they havn't. I don't think there is such thing as a female steef. Becuase I saw was this offcial source of information about the Steef, and it's calling them by "He" So they might only be males.

Dipstikk 06-15-2005 10:22 AM

I'm betting on a male / female society. They don't seem like the kind of creature that would have a queen. Can you imagine a gargantuain matriarch Steef bloated with eggs or children? I can, but I just don't see it happening.

Call it a gut feeling if you will.

My point exactly. I just do not see them as super-species creatures.

Yeah, a queen Steef, scary picture...

Oddish 06-16-2005 11:45 AM

You may be right, but it would if there was a queen steef. Just imagen a Human queen O_o

I got a question...

Dose anyone know any more information about that disease that was left out of Munch's Oddysee?

ANN NEELY 06-17-2005 08:58 AM

If you mean what turns Munch into the hulking Roid character....*Runs and grabs her Art of Oddworld book*

[i]Sorry for not spotting this earlier, but of course it says in very big letters at the start of the book that no part of it may be replicated in electronic form : that means no quoting it, annoyingly enough.

Oddish 06-17-2005 09:57 AM

Oh, well I guess so.

Yeah, I ready knew that. No luck trying to Search.

hey all a yaz! Lol. I've heard about this Chronicler dude, but who excactly is he? Alf said he was an accountant, but I am a little skepticle.

The Marching Mudokon 06-29-2005 01:15 AM

He is an accountant (among other things, I think). He was going to be in MO but they cancelled him. I would tell you more about the Chroniclers but I don't have my Oddworld book on me. Maybe someone else could elaborate for me?

The Marching Mudokon 07-01-2005 03:57 AM

When Abe possess' a being does he have intimite knowledge of all of their memories? I think he does but my friend says he doesn't.

big bro boogie 07-01-2005 05:33 AM

Well, I guess he does, but like every natural beeing: why would He care for another's memories.
All we can be assure of is that Abe (when he possesses something) he can use them to talk, to move, and to kill things, if it can kill.

used:) 07-01-2005 06:11 PM

Yeah, besides, why would he care about someones memories when he's leading a revolution against industrialist cooks (cept Phleg, he's awsome).

The Marching Mudokon 07-01-2005 11:00 PM

He might need to use them for some reason, like if he possessed a slig and needed the password he could access his memories to find it.

Mudo 07-02-2005 03:51 PM

Does anyone know if theres going to be anoyher stranger game?I was just wondering ever since I finised the game and saw the squid thing swim away and got the felling he'd be back.

The Marching Mudokon 07-02-2005 06:25 PM

Lorne said they are planning a Stranger sequel but right now OI are focused on movies and TV shows.

used:) 07-03-2005 05:12 PM

Okay, I have two questions. Wat does Zulag mean anyway. We get that it isa term for an area or level of a factory, but what does it mean exactly?. And, is Sekto one of those squid things and are those squid things Octigis?

The Marching Mudokon 07-04-2005 01:05 AM

Yes, Sekto is an Octigi (I think that's the species' name-I don't have my Oddworld artbook on me) and I think Zulag is just another name for level or area but I could be wrong.

Xavier 07-04-2005 10:35 AM

Zulag, Goulag... that kind of nice little funy stuff.

used:) 07-04-2005 05:15 PM

Indeed, it is quite funny

T-nex 07-05-2005 07:26 AM

What's a goulag?? Sorry, I'm a bit blonde today :(

Dipstikk 07-05-2005 09:28 AM

I think it's like a Russian prison.

Not pleasant stuff.

Xavier 07-06-2005 04:07 AM

my bad I've spelt it wrong ;)

used:) 07-06-2005 09:30 AM

There is a thing called Ghoulash which is a Hungarian stew.

Xavier 07-06-2005 01:34 PM

I don't think there is any relation...
