New website-remember that ? -

If you're referring to Alfred Gamble, no, he is not.

That was the guy who Alf the mudokon was named after, right?

That's... pretty depressing.

EDIT: Way to start a new page.

So uh, is anyone else wondering just what the new site is going to be like? The old (current) one is basically an encyclopedia of the different locations and creatures in the games, will that change? Are they going to go all Web 2.0 on us?

I can't help but wonder what the design will look like, too, but then I'm a design nerd so

I always quite liked the old site, so I hope the new one is as good. What colour-scheme will it have? Black and purple? I liked that.

Also: did you know that Clint Eastwood's first name, when spelt in capital letters, looks like a very rude word?

***Nate*** · #33 10-10-2010, 04:36 PM

I'm just hoping that Alf returns from his vacation.

Yes, in the kerning industry that's known as My Friend Fucka's Syndrome.

Well, it's been five years, and sabbaticals are only meant to last one. So he'd better.

Hey guys,
Just to let you know the new website will go live as soon as we can. There has been an issue with the hosting company, we had to MAIL (NOT EMAIL) them proof of who we were as some crazy person looked the account by entering the wrong password too many times....

D'oh ;-)

That make me happy

STM · #40 10-14-2010, 09:45 AM

I'm sure someone joked about this being the exact reason for slow progress! Well at least it'll be up soon!

Nope, wasn't joking. We have the password now, so real soon now

***Nate*** · #42 10-15-2010, 11:25 PM

Working on a Saturday? That's some committment you have there, Mister Gilray.

***Xavier*** · #43 10-16-2010, 02:30 AM

Who told you he was working... he's just relaxing at home and reading the forums.

STM · #44 10-16-2010, 02:38 AM

Squeee, he talked to me. Well this is good news, "real soon"!!!!!! That's better than "New website coming soon" yes?

MeechMunchie · #45 10-16-2010, 12:56 PM

HOLY SHAZBOT IT'S COMING SOON!

After all these years, unswerving faith in Oddworld Inhabitants has payed off! Our unending loyalty has finally been rewarded with definite confirmation of new Oddworld media!

***Wil*** · #46 10-16-2010, 03:23 PM

I, for one, welcome this development. Overlord.

erwinraaben55 · #47 10-17-2010, 05:16 AM

Did some of you already save the Oddworld website as it is now? Coz soon it will be gone the way we looked at it for 4 years :P

STM · #48 10-17-2010, 05:20 AM

Erwinraaben is right, quickly, someone archive that photo before it's gone!

lismati · #49 10-17-2010, 05:39 AM

Ready

But really, how long can it take to upload a website? Gilrod told us that site was supposed to be up about week ago, so what takes them so long?

Fixed that for you.

lismati · #52 10-17-2010, 08:17 AM

I mentioned his last posts, not the whole thing, and BTW are you an admin?

Q-Ball · #53 10-17-2010, 11:32 PM

Uh, hope it will be up soon. If this happens we, at least, will know anything about upcoming projects.

I wouldn't count on it...

elums mum · #55 10-18-2010, 01:50 AM

Anybody else reckon we'll be waiting till ,at minimum, halloween before we see this new website?

I just kinda get the feeling that we will... especially since oddworld is so odd. Just like you know ... halloween... which is also odd.

AvengingGibbons · #56 10-18-2010, 02:15 AM

Now they have the password, if I have to state a day, it will be this friday.

EDIT: no, thursday

enchilado · #57 10-18-2010, 02:22 AM
