Well there have to be females of everything, don't there? Maybe it's a queen-in-waiting or something.

Sl'askia 04-16-2001 06:11 PM

no i think it was either a joke by one of the OWI programers or the poor slig lost a bet. hehe

Wil 04-16-2001 06:23 PM

Don't be silly - it's a shepherdess for those Meeps, of course. Tsk!

Also, I've noticed that the purple-wearing Sligs on the right is holding a tambourene (or however it's spelt). Wow, so Sligs do create music... :rolleyes:

iliodd 04-16-2001 06:42 PM

If you consider a tambourine music :rolleyes:

Wow, look at all those kinds of Sligs! Like all the kinds of Muds. Maybe we'll see these in Munch?

iliodd 04-16-2001 06:43 PM

And unless I'm very much mistaken, that Glukkon on the right is Mollock himself! So he did survive... :eek:

Elum 04-16-2001 06:56 PM

Actually Max, you could be right. But, the only resemblence I see in a sheep and a meep is there names.

Cloverfield 04-17-2001 04:20 AM

The first time I saw the Slig in a Dress... I couldn't stop laughing!!! I thought it looked so funny!

I guess another example of OWI humor! :D

Abe Babe...

Osiris The Fleech 04-17-2001 03:35 PM

And the slig on the extremely far left looks as though he is a regular slig with armor. Cool!! I don't think that is a tambourine, I think is is a mike for MOM. Look closely.

ODDBODD 04-17-2001 03:49 PM

the slig with the armour looks like a
mercenary or a assasin, Maybe he might be an actuall character in the upcoming games.
There has never been a slig character well except for the queen

Danny 04-17-2001 04:52 PM

skillya hasn't been in anything yet, but might be in ME [or MI, whatever it turns out to be].

i read somewhere that the slig lost a bet, and i'm sure it was somewhere quite reliable.

i'm glad there are some mudokon bad guys, that implies that there will be some slig good guys! :)

is Lulu not counted as a good guy, though, as you have to help him [her? i've never been sure. it looks like a bloke] to rise in the ranks, which implies he/she is on our side, kinda like a spy for us. but if that's true, he/she's on the wrong picture. :confused:

Lantra 04-18-2001 02:47 AM

lulu is bad but abe takes control of him in order to infiltrate vykkers labs.

ODDBODD 04-18-2001 09:52 AM

i thought LULU was a girl well it might be the first glukkon TRANSIE

Wil 04-18-2001 10:36 AM

I agree, that thing could just be a microphone...but the lights round the edge suggest tambourene to me, and the Slig's clothing suggests musician anyday.

That Slig to the far left is just a Magnum Slig, the third lowest of Slig Statuses. That Slig can just afford to have a fancier mask and a smarter gun, that's all.

Oh dear: most of the creatures we've seen on Oddworld so far have been worker or soldier class - without any uhums, which makes them, technically, neither male nor female. The only reason we call Abe and co 'he' is because they have masculine personalities. Seeing that Lulu has a feminine personality, we can call her 'her' or 'she', even though she's not really female.

And we have has Slig characters - the Newscaster and the Operator.

Osiris The Fleech 04-18-2001 02:30 PM

The magnum slig looks cool. I still think it's a microphone, but we'll see in MO.

iliodd 04-18-2001 05:34 PM

Where'd you learn all this about Magnum Sligs? I haven't heard anything about types of Sligs

Rich 04-18-2001 06:36 PM

I don't know much about the sligs but Mullock DID Survive, But How I don't Know. :confused: :confused:

Danny 04-18-2001 08:18 PM

maybe he was just stunned.

i've always wondered this about AO: Rupture farms was never destroyed, abe just switched off the power and killed the bosses. so why didn't the Cartel start it up again?

im guessing it was paperwork.

Osiris The Fleech 04-18-2001 09:28 PM

You never know, maybe they did. :)

Dakkan Blackblade 04-18-2001 11:21 PM

I think it's a Joke. You know them OWI, They are always fukin around! =) N-E-Ways... ELUM!!! I got a cool Picture of Munch I drew while I was skecking in Art, He is Sporting the Pepsi Logo because I was doin a Project on Advertising.

iliodd 04-19-2001 12:03 AM

Rettick: That's exactly what I've wondered. Here's what I imagine: the site has gone into disrepair, vines all over the walls and everything... Nobody wants to go back there because of all the rumours about what happened to Molluck. It's become a haunted castle type of thing, I can think of wonderful cinematic things OWI could do with that for the "Return to RuptureFarms" part of Munch's Oddyssee.
Of course, that's just my opinion... I could be wrong.

oddguy 999 04-19-2001 02:17 AM

I reccon lulu will be assigned to fix up Raptur farms and Muluck, who has been lurking in the shadows, will try and kill him and take his place... but you need to keep lulu alive.

Danny 04-19-2001 08:21 PM

i like the picture you create, Illiodd.

i think Lulu has to infiltrate the labs, not rupture farms.

Wil 04-19-2001 08:46 PM

Well, we all know we're going back to RuptureFarms, and we all know we've got to use Lulu to get into Vykkers Labs.

Perahps we don't all know that RuptureFarms hasn't started up again because, if it did, someone would have to pay compensation (or lots of money, anyway). Right now, Maggie has to pay, which is why she comes into the picture. But if another Glukkon takes the role of boss of RuptureFarms, they'll have to pay. And while lots of Glukkons would really love the important and well-paid job, they're not prepared to sacrafice that much money.

I think, while you're getting Lulu up through the ranks of Glukkon life, one factory you have to take control over is RuptureFarms.

I like the Molluck vs. Lulu idea. But Glukkons can only spit...

iliodd 04-19-2001 08:50 PM

It's a business feud. Plus, they have Sligs to command.

Lantra 04-21-2001 01:40 AM

i think the magnum slig is really cool but how do you know about him?

Lantra 04-21-2001 02:03 AM

mabye he did destory it we just never got to see him do it.

Danny 04-21-2001 01:23 PM

they can kick...

Oddipus 04-21-2001 01:25 PM

I thought my vocoddbulary was pretty up to date, but can somebody show me a Magnum slig or tell me what it is?
