How dumb are V.P. Aslik, Director Phleg, and General Drippik? Apparently not that dumb considering their high ranks in their respective businesses of the Magog Cartel, although you can't help but wonder sometimes can you?

The only creatures you can possess in MO that you can't in AE are the interns, vykkers and I guess Big Bros even though they are still sligs. Munch controls snoozers and cranes but they don't really count.

And slogs

how do interns eat?

TheKhanzumer · #**183** 04-20-2003, 09:22 PM

Oh yean... I forgot about slogs.

Interns probably use straws to eat... seriously though your guess is as good as mine. Maybe they suck up food from the bottoms of their feet or something.

:

Surgically prevented from whistling while they work, Interns are finger-pointing finks who enforce Vykker regulations with a song in their heart and a pill on their lips.

hmmmwhat lips? I'm afraid your theory doesn't fit very well Khanz

Just because their mouths are stitched up doesn't mean they dont have lips...

***Xavier*** · #**186** 04-21-2003, 12:22 PM

I was pointing the "eat by feet" thingy, Jacob

Hi! What is the Sam, Skillya, Magog.. ? I'm sorry, I'm new.

Hobo · #**188** 04-23-2003, 03:53 PM

Sam is the mud queen Skilliya (sp.) is the slig queen and magog is the network of glukkon owned franchises

Kaaabe · #**189** 04-23-2003, 04:06 PM

Thank you, thank you, thank you a lot! :*

***Xavier*** · #**190** 04-23-2003, 04:35 PM

Basicly:

Magog (Cartel): is the powerfull organisation of the Glukkons ruled by Maggie the Glukkon queen

Sam: She is the Mudokon queen and thus Abe's mother, she is momently retainted by the Magog Cartel and is guarded by a lot of Shrinks who are supposed to keep her stable.

Skillya: the Slig queen, she sells her children to the Magog Cartel and is very cruel with her children

Is "Ratz" the plural term or singular?

(I.e. can one just be called a "Rat" or is it still called a "Ratz" no matter what?)

TheKhanzumer · #**192** 04-23-2003, 10:48 PM

Ratz is the plural form of rat. A single entity of the species is called a rat, more than one are ratz.

How do you pronounce Mud?

is it "Mud" like the word for wet dirt, or is it pronounced "Mood" as in Oddipus' banner "don't get Mudy"?

Sorry, trickymickey, but this question has been drilling into my skull for a while. Please don't be offended for asking a question after you.

***Xavier*** · #**195** 04-26-2003, 01:08 PM

trickymicky, I don't want to spoil you the surprise

Dipstikk, it is the "Mud like the word for wet dirt"

Oddipus · #**196** 04-28-2003, 12:32 PM

Just posting something useless so you can see the signature your talking about.

Reese Charles · #**197** 05-06-2003, 01:19 AM

It doesnt really suprise me that this thread has been responded to by nothing but mods/admins. It a really boring thread that know one wants to post in, but its a thread that admins really need.

I dunno, maybe its just me, but I don't think this thread will really catch on with other users.

Hi all

Are there any maps out there? As in maps off Mudos etc.

Reese

Reese Charles · #**199** 05-06-2003, 02:32 AM

It is pronounced "Mood Ah Ken".

This is how Abe says it in the game. Other than that, its kind of up to you.

When it's shortened to Mud its is just pronounced "Mud" with no stress on the U.

Personally I can't stop saying "Mud Uh Kon". But then, I live in England so I say things weird. (Actually I am Canadian, and I live in England, but I still say things weird!)

Reese

Oddipus · #**200** 05-06-2003, 05:27 AM

Abe tries too say Mud Uh Kon, just like everybody else, i guess. But try to say that with a severe gold (like the voice of Abe) and you get Mud Ah Ken.

But afterall, this clears nothing up.

Reese Charles · #**201** 05-06-2003, 05:49 AM

Hmm, well I dont really know what to say to that, except that the way abe say things is the way all the other muds say things. So we can only assume that the way he says it is right. But then again, you say tom a tow, I say tom ah tow, its just a matter of how you feel comfortable saying it.

Oddipus:

Do you want the HTML that lets you have a picture link (so that we can click on your signiture to get taken to your website)? If you do, download the text file and copy the contents into your signiture. (remove all existing text from your signiture beforehand)

Hope that makes your signiture jazzier for you. Mine doesn't work because its from Mp3.coms protected servers that doesn't allow remote use (which is a pain). I might set up a free webpage just to host my signiture so I can have it in my posts.

Hobo · #**203** 05-06-2003, 01:16 PM

Double posting tsch! Try using the edit botton instead.

Reese

sure there is... but this kind of pictures should be asked in the "picture request" anyway here is it
http://www.oddworld.com/alf/alfictio...assets/map.jpg

and yes hobo is right... don't dubble or triple post, only use the edit button please

Oddipus · #**205** 05-06-2003, 03:59 PM

Thanx Reese,

I wanted to do that someday, but didn't know how and forgot about it. Nifty!

FeeCoFreak · #**206** 05-06-2003, 09:12 PM

Cool map...

FeeCoFreak

Reese Charles · #**207** 05-06-2003, 09:29 PM

Hello again

Oddipus: Thats no problem at all, if EVER need any more HTML help at all, I would be more than happy to help!

As for the map, thanks loads, I have always wondered how my game would fit in.

Sorry all about the multiple posts, it wasn't intentional, I just didn't think of using the edit button at the time...

Reese

PS: Visit my thread on "If you could make an Oddworld game how would you make it?" - I will be posting game ambience and some FMV soundtracks up there for your listening

Oddsville · #**208** 05-06-2003, 09:34 PM

Dang Xav beat me to the map question! I had the url all ready for Reese and then......BAM!
Ah well, great job Xav! They don't call ya the Oddworld Photo Album for nothing.

Reese Charles · #**209** 05-06-2003, 09:39 PM

Hmm, funny you should mention photo album. I have a directory of game screens from every single place in AE and AO. Its more of an archive actually, but its all filed in order and everything (I am good at that).

So if anyone wants screenshots of anywhere in the game then I am your man, but it has to be pointed out that this should be done in the picture request thread, I think this thread has had all the pictures it can handle.

Thanks.

Reese

***Xavier*** · #**210** 05-07-2003, 01:03 PM

reese... sounds nice I'm actually not that good for ScreenShots (except official ones)
anyway you are Canadian? Do you speak french or only english?
