Hand of Odd
 
If you prefer the origional hand of mudokons and know why they changed it, I have this to say:
What about the sligs?!

A slig's hand is missing it's middle finger's outer 2 knukles. If that doesn't scream "Yakusi" what does?!!

Xavier 12-11-2002 12:47 PM

sligs are bad guys... so no problem...
but shouldn't this topic be in the GD?

Okay, they have shoulders. Do you like their shoulders?

And the 3 fingerd hand is a rip-off of the vulcan peace symbol!

M.O.M 12-14-2002 04:13 PM

vulcan....sorry i dont understand?

Facsimile 12-14-2002 08:26 PM

I'm not sure what a vulcan is but its not a rip-off, muds just aren't allowed 4 fingers no more.

Adder 12-15-2002 12:45 PM

Vulcans...Tuvak out of Star Trec. "Live long and prosper"
Y are the simpsons alowed 4 fingers, Facsimile?

AO was to be realesed in japan. As u know, abe had 4 fingers and worked in a meat factory as a slave. A long time ago in japan, slave who worked in a meat factory were to have there middle finger chopped off so that if they escaped people would know where to put them if caught. So instead of being sewed, oddworld gave all the muds, an extra finger. Ask someone else to clarify.

Xavier 12-15-2002 04:55 PM

you can found the whole story in the FAQ of the official site:

I did not make the rules, do not blame me.

M.O.M 12-16-2002 04:36 AM

Cuz Abe works at a meat factory

M.O.M 12-18-2002 02:01 PM

this is kinda off topic but postman pat is banned in japan because of his stubby fingers and some people in the Yakuza kut the tips of their fingers off!

But in the story about Abe's fingers, they say about Mickey Mouse having to pay to be over there. So it is not just meat factory workers.

Xavier 12-19-2002 05:27 AM

sure but it was harder to let admit a 4-finger worker in a meat-factory , than simply a 4-fingers actor

No, they are feet. Otherwise cats and dogs would have hands.

Xavier 12-22-2002 06:07 AM

Adder 12-24-2002 10:52 AM

The Oddysee hand was much better, it DIDN'T look like someone with 2 elastic bands and a lot of make-up!

Xavier 12-27-2002 06:14 AM

Xavier 12-29-2002 04:19 PM

okay, sorry if I sounded rude :fuzwink:

Canned Gabbiar 01-01-2003 04:30 AM

Hey, why'd you put scrabs and paramites as options? They don't have hands.

I would say sligs, but if you include the arm, I'd say Glukkons.

This was said before. Scrabs have at least bulky shoulders, and I think Paramites have hands.

Hey, Xav. If you close the thread because of spam can people still vote?

Xavier 01-02-2003 11:49 AM

I don't think so...
but it isn't to much spam right now

I would say that scrabs definitely DONT have hands, but a paramites mouth appendages look and act like a hand.
they've even got claws on the end of the 'bits'.
I'm sure i remember seeing them carrying stuuf eith their mouth bits too.
I would definitely class this as a hand

Xavier 01-04-2003 07:17 AM

lets say... paramite have a hand on his face but scrabs don't have hands at all...

but in fact all this topic is stupid

Adder 01-04-2003 11:19 AM

Deffinitions
 
If anything walked on is a foot, not a hand then:

Gorrilase while charging have 4 feet.
Glukkons have legs higher than their arms.

So, how do you define a hand, Facsimile

Alcar 01-04-2003 08:05 PM

I think the classification of hands is whether they are used like hands in earth-beings.

Paramites, Scrabs etc then would not have hands.

However, Glukkons do have hands. And if they wanted to they could use them like hands. But because of their pety self conscious-ness they hide them.
