Oddworld Fact Request

Codek · #1 07-30-2003, 11:36 PM

Hey everyone.

This is important: People need a place to ask for facts not disclosed in the FAQ or spoilers section, as there is currently no place for this. The addition of this topic should dramatically reduce the number of topics closed due to newb-making-a-new-topic-just-to-ask-a-"stupid"-question syndrome.

This is a place to ask stupid, silly, funny questions about Oddworld. To get it out of your system mainly, but also to have a bit of fun. This is ALSO a place to ask "what if" questions about Oddworld.

General rule:
Before asking a question here, check if it's already been asked and answered in the Oddworld FAQ section.

Thanks, and I hope this will become a useful resource.

Death...

Please Note:
DO NOT critisize my attempts to improve the quality of this forum. This topic IS needed and IS nessacery, it's just that certain peeps have the shortsightedness to be jealous that they never came up with this first.

screw you!

Sorry bud, we already have a questions and answers thread on the forums. This is the same thing, and therefore, pointless.

Its the thought that counts though.

Codek · #3 07-31-2003, 12:16 AM

Nice try Khanz.

Sorry "Buddy" but there actually isn't a place like this. And this is NOT pointless, so don't try to make my efforts look pathetic, dimp weed. This is a place to ask all those questions that would get laughed at everywhere else. All the silly facts, fun questions, and sort of a "What if" section too. It's much needed, trust me.

Treat it how you want, there is an issue here and this topic IS the solution.

Please note that I have mistakenly not added this information into my first post which I will now correct accordingly.

Thankyou.

Hey, hey now. Let us not get offensive here. I know that Khanz didn't mean to offend you in anyway and there's no need for you to take it out of context like you did.

Khanz probalby misunderstood what you ment...

Yep, I just don't like people getting all smart with me like they are some kind of higher life. It pisses me off more than anything.

Same here.

I do appreciate that you've made a thread for all the "unofficial" Q's that would be mocked everywhere else, but does that mean that all the answers are "unofficial"? If so, then I guess this thread is solely for discussion puposes, no?

Use it however you find it useful.

Okay!

Q: What color would suit Meeches the best, in your opinion?

Turquoise really complements that pink bodycolor!

oddguy · #10 07-31-2003, 01:48 AM

I think black, or maybe a dark-green would do nicely!

Thinking of that, imagine what sorta pants paramites would have to wear! they would be all over the damn place. so many legs and whatnot.

I think that blue would fit nicely for Meeches, are there any Oddworld life-forms that are blue besides Abe?

If paramites were to wear pants, that'd be really different! It would be really confusing too! But who would make them I wonder, maybe the gluks would, so it would be harder for paramites to run away, if by any chance they escaped. And how would they potty?

Death, I appreciate this thread, so don't take mean things said personally.

TheKhanzumer · #13 07-31-2003, 01:53 PM

"Higher life" That's silly... though it does got a nice ring to it. But seriously, I was just joking around, I would do that to anyone. I wasn't trying to piss you off.

Thanx for watching my back Oddsville...

Now I sort of understand what this is supposed to be. So I take back what I said. This is sort of the Official Unofficial Q and A. This is for theories and random stuff while the Unofficial Q and A which tries to give official answers. Okay I get it now, I'm sorry this piece of "higher life" didn't understand you at first.

EDIT: I personally think meeches should be grayish with a little bit of orange like real shrimp. All pale and exoskeletoney.

Codek · #14 07-31-2003, 06:27 PM

Yep, this is supposed to be the TRUE odd q and a.

I wonder who designed necrum to look like an upturned dead cow?

oddguy · #15 07-31-2003, 07:43 PM

I'm not sure, but did anyone notice that some of the doors in Necrum look kinda like cupcakes.

They just look like a door in the side of a boiler to me. I dunno, I don't really look.

Which ones?

GrigtheSlig · #17 08-01-2003, 12:27 AM

I noticed that too, they do look like cupcakes!

Which do you like better?

A. Meeches
B. Paramites
C. Scrabs

They look more like horseshoes to me...

And B. all the time!

GrigtheSlig · #19 08-01-2003, 02:52 AM

Really? I like Scrabs or Meeches better than paramites, not that I don't like them, I just like the others better!

oddguy · #20 08-01-2003, 11:39 AM

A. Meeches
I love them because they're just so unknown and they look like they could do some serious damage baby!

Codek · #21 08-01-2003, 07:32 PM

I like the paramites because they are so intelligent and peaceful, yet they are not harmless and can most easily look after themselves. They aren't like the other intelligent life that needs guns...

GrigtheSlig · #22 08-01-2003, 09:58 PM

I do like that paramites talk to each other. Meeches hunt in packs, so they hav to talk to each other, right? What do you think?
