Let's Play Internet Roulette Page 3

whoo boy... this page was... lacking.

Beacuase I'm looking for the character Godzilla and not the whole damn media empire, I have to cut the majority of this page from review, since most of it is NOT of Godzilla. Rather, we get Bagorah, Orga, Zilla, Biollante, Baby Zilla, Titanosaurus, Destroyah, King Ghidorah, a cat for some reason, Gigan, and Bagan.

We still get our automatic 20 points though, which is good.

http://zwerg-im-bikini.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-12211628?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=48 This is just awful. In the category "Macabre & Horror." Plus, he's green. Nope.

http://zillamaster91.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-Wars-Godzilla-80753866?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=49 And here I was thinking Matt was the only guy working for the comics in the fandom. Turns out EVERY swinging dick has done there fair share of "spiky" Godzilla.

GODDAMN dA! QUIT SELLING ME SHOES! My only weakness... after bullets...

http://ldn-rdnt.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-Gojira-199322429?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=51 I don't like this guy. I WANTED to like him, since his "revisionings" are neither strictly realistic nor strictly spiky, and yet are still a wild departure from the original without needing to be... well, stupid. However, some things are taken too far. Also, he's religious, so no thanks.

I WOULD HAVE given this:

http://ldn-rdnt.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-GxU-216072796?q=gallery%3ALDN-RDNT%20randomize%3A1&qo=1 a point though. Too bad it didn't come up on the search... yet? We'll see.

http://kaijusamurai.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-vs-Kiryu-in-SA-258182141?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=58 Jesus christ isn't there anyone ELSE on dA besides Matt? Whatever, it isn't neo so +1.

http://kaijusamurai.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-Navy-refurb-114024592?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=66 again, not neo. +1

http://bloodedemon.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-81826343?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=65 and this just isn't good. +0

Page 3 Total: 22

We did better than last time with no crossovers, and adding 22 to our previous total of 44 gives us 66. We are two pages from being done and proving... that Godzilla isn't Sonic, I guess.

Let's Play Internet Roulette Page 2

Before we begin, I want to say that there are two things I don't know how to do:
1. Make the main page cut off the blogs at a certain point so that it doesn't show 7 ENTIRE posts.
2. Make the whole blog not cut pictures of a certain size in half.


And with that, it's time for page 2!

Lets add our automatic 20 points and get going.

http://cyraptor.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-75898793?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=25 This guy rules SO HARD. +1

http://montygog.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-and-Fiends-61809296?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=26 this one is too cool. You could make the case that including King Kong is a crossover... you know, if you're stupid. +1

http://shinleejin.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-129174080?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=27 awesome pixelart. I'm gonna put this... on my face or something. Damn that's cool. +1

http://kaijusamurai.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-vs-The-Transformers-183183988?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=30 You know how we are supposed to SUBTRACT points for crossovers? No, that doesn't make any sense, does it? Well, since it's good, and since the negatives are cumulative, I'm only giving this -4. See, Matt Frank is excellent when he applies himself... to not being a tool.


http://wakabee.deviantart.com/art/godzilla-155677041?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=32 this is just stupid. =/


http://olivier2046.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-81140640?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=33 He's green, what the fuck? No points.

http://lord-cottonball.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-66765155?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=37 This is one of those "bad" crossovers. -5


http://unlobogris.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-25236760?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=38 Not only does this not look like Godzilla, but it doesn't even look like a real dinosaur, which is what this guy was going for. For proof, look at his mutant vampire Therizinosaur: http://unlobogris.deviantart.com/art/Therizinosaurus-cheloniformis-20603109?q=gallery%3Aunlobogris%20randomize%3A1&qo=1


Now, I'm no Therizinosaur savant or anything... but, uh, I'm pretty sure they weren't vampires. Seriously, I can't get over how horrible that picture is.


http://channandeller.deviantart.com/art/GODZILLA-75993447?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=39 AAAAAAA!!!! I'M OVER IT I'M OVER IT!!! GET IT THE FUCK AWAY!!!


Now is a good time to bring up that all the bad stuff we're seeing is either:
1. a bad photoshop
2. a "revisioning" as if Godzilla were in a Spawn comic
3. a "revisioning" of a "realistic" Godzilla that looks like no other dinosaur that has ever existed (and we WILL be seeing more of that, trust me)
4. People who have never actually seen Godzilla, and apparently think he's green.


Not exactly Sonic-fandom level yet. Moving on.

http://leggedfish.deviantart.com/art/Starry-Godzilla-55557121?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=41 I REALLY like this one. Does it count as a crossover? Eh, it's sort of specified that there be a fandom for it to count in the original rules, so no. +1


http://hellraptor.deviantart.com/art/Godzilla-197734246?q=boost%3Apopular%20Godzilla&qo=47 *shudders* Godzilla eaten by a snake, I guess. Listen to the description: "i felt of doin Godzilla and this is the result, i reshaped his head, gave him stripes to make him little different than the original, i think he could look something like this in the 2012 reboot."


I can't even... what? You want the next GINO to look like that? This is why I say that Godzilla is dead, because THIS is the fandom now. It is completely unrecognizable to me. All bow before Guilala, the NEW God of Wa... I mean King of the Monsters.


Same difference, though, right?


Page 2 Total: 20 + 6 - 9 = 17


and we had... 27 points last time? So that's 44. We are less than the first time I did this because I'm not counting the neo stuff. It's competent, yes, but it belongs in the category of Spawn comics and... well, I don't need the help. We are only missing out on 7 points anyways.


Next page... uh... tomgirl Godzilla in love with Yongarry? Don't fucking bet on it.

Let's Play Internet Roulette Page 1

I know this may shock some, but I've done some research, and, it turns out, Sonic isn't the only thing on the internet. Gasp in disbelief if you want, but that doesn't change facts, and the facts say that if you search for something you want to see, you will see THAT, and not, you know, Sonic being gay and also anthropomorphized and/or eating a pokemans. True story.

What sort of "research" did I do? Well, a short while ago I was digging through some files on this laptop when I found this:

haha... clever observation. Everything is homogenous! If only it were funny.

So, I played this game. But, in order to make it fair, I've decided that there are, in fact, winners, and after a certain point I wanted to know WHEN that was. Last time I tried this I got to 51 points before being bored, but I was aiming for 100.

So here are the revised rules:

1. Just like the original, pick ANY movie, tv show, or character. It specifically asks for your favorite one. Playing this more than once, you might think to even the odds by picking NOT Sonic. But if you're looking for a challenge, you could also pick Sonic.

2. 1 point for well done fan art. This is supposed to set up that good fan art represents a small an unimportant fraction of the majority of stuff you'll find, as the point value is small comparatively. Actually, it's the other way around in real life, where good fan art is so omnipresent that you can't count too much for it or you'll win 2 pages sooner.

3. This is where the original rules get fuzzy. It's supposed to be if you see a "human as an animal." Well folks, humans ARE animals. So, in order to have this make sense and preserve the original, possibly ignorantly stated intent, the new rule is -10 points for a character that wasn't human turned into one, or vice versa.

4. This one was originally subtract an additional 5 points if a work from rule #3 also contained a crossover or a transgendered character. Because this fellow doesn't seem to know how to speak English, I have to fucking translate for his fucking retarded ass: If you see an image that is a crossover lose 5 points. If you see the character with a gender that they didn't have originally, like, if the character was already a tomboy but is shown to be way more feminine, that's another -5. Rules #3 and #4 are cumulative.

5. The most controversial rule. It seems like this should be something like "minus something point for same sex pairing," but instead it ends up being the key to winning the game. So, if you come across a page that DOESN'T have your character gettin' gay, then it's 20 points. So, just to reiterate: automatic 20 points every page.

6. You win once you have 100 points.

To recap:
- no rule on who you can pick
- +1 for each good fan art
- -10 for humans turned non-human or vice versa
- -5 for crossover or alternate gender of original, negatives cumulative
- +20 for every page... with no gay stuff.
- 100 to win

LET'S PLAY!

See, because I like Godzilla, I'm immune to this game. Turns out that's not a joke or anything. You really need to have MUCH crazier fans than the faggots who actually like Zilla to qualify for the joke. However, the rules say I can pick anyone, so whatever.

- PAGE 01 -

Zoomed out. Here you can see that not only are G-fans NOT as crazy as Sonic fans, but a lot of them are great artists. +20

Also, NEW RULE #7: This should go without saying, but, if it ISN'T a picture of your character, it doesn't count towards your total. You will see a lot of Zilla, Space Godzilla, and Mechagodzilla, so that needs to be said.

Cool stuff:

Frank Parr, I believe. For those of you breaking the rules, because Frank Parr is the best, this is worth 100 points. But, for me, +1.

Will there be a next time? Probably. I'm cutting this up mostly to make it not just one long blog and also to make it more like an LP.

Xros minis are stupid.

What is this shit? This is fucking stupid. I don't care who the fuck you are, War Greymon doesn't fucking digivolve in Seadramon. That's just stupid.

I love the parallel of the megazords and super organisms (see, because it's multiple multicellular organisms working as one organism... get it? It's cool, dammit), but you can't make that mesh with traditional digivolution.

Like, lets say the original five dinozords are like the champion level, and the megazord is an ultimate/perfect. Okay, cool, makes sense. Because the Dragonzord is about equal to the megazord, it would ALSO be an ultimate, right? Fair enough. And when you have the Dragonzord combine with the other 5 dinozords, you get one that sacrifices speed for power. So, it's still really an ultimate. So the Dragonzord is an ultimate that, because of the technicalities of megazords, digivolves into another ultimate. I can understand that, and it makes perfect sense, especially if you then say Titanus is another ultimate, and the Ultrazord is a mega/ultimate.

But instead of working like that, what the xros minis do is mix in digimon whose level we don't know (or they technically don't have one, ala Ohakadamon or Apocalymon, although Shoutmon is pretty obviously a champion at this point) with older digimon, such as Agumon and Triceramon, who we already know everything about.

So, what you get is, to go back to the analogy, individual zords combining with individual zords, both of which we know the levels of, to get a third individual zord that we also know the level of already. Like, if the Pteranodon and Mastodon combined to get the Triceratops. That's fucking stupid.

That's just the analogy. The reality is that if you xros any of the champion leveled digimon Greymon, Seadramon, Tyrannomon, or Monochromon, or either of the ultimate leveled Metal Greymon or Triceramon, or even the mega level War Greymon or Imperialdramon with the also mega level Magnadramon, the result is the rookie level Dracomon.

This is why the xros minis are stupid.

But more than that, the way that you xros is to beat an A.I. digimon in battle, and what species you kill will determine what the resulting xros will be. So... if you can get a War Greymon by killing ONE enemy, and all of the digimon you can obtain are equal in power anyways... what's the fucking point of even playing it? If you aren't raising your digimon to get a specific one... why ARE you raising it? Wouldn't it be simpler just to let the stupid fucker die?

Or, better yet, just never buy one to begin with? I certainly think so.

I fucking hate these xros minis, dude, I'm serious. I can't wait until like G10 or whatever when the xros thing is old hat and digimon do something that makes more sense. Maybe there will be a mass extinction and only the "metal" digimon will survive or something. Whatever, damn.

This is the dorkiest thing I have ever written...

Great Old One of the undisclosedperiodoftime: Cthynhi

 I've gotten asked about this one, and it's pretty important, so I'm gonna cover this right now.

First Appearance: "In His Daughter's Darkling Womb" by Tina L. Jens, 1997

Tina's story is incredibly important not only to Yog-Sothery, but to the more general and stupid Cthulhu Mythos. The biggest bomb in Yog-Sothery history is dropped in that story. If you follow that sort of thing, you won't need it explained to you, but for the others, let's examine.

Cthylla, one of Cthulhu's daughters (via Idh-yaa, perhaps better known as the Worm That Gnaws, but we'll get to that later), and a Brian Lumley creation, became a central figure in the Cthulhu Mythos when an ancient prophecy revealed that she was the key in continuing Cthulhu's legacy beyond the grave. Yes, while Cthulhu may eventually die by silly human standards, the great god himself would be reincarnated through the womb of his daughter.

What? Yes, not only is Cthulhu going to die, but Cthylla having a child will mean that he is already gone.

So if you want to use Lumley's Cthylla, in order to tell a story that's not contradictory (which, for those Yog-Sothery folks who don't understand, the Cthulhu Mythos people like to maintain a tight continuity and cohesive universe. No, they don't ignore like half of the writers including CAS. Yes, it doesn't make any sense. No, I'm not joking. Yes, people take this very seriously.), you're going to have to kill off the big C himself.

So... that's what Tina did.

So, just to make this as clear as crap:

CTHULHU IS DEAD IN CTHULHU MYTHOS CANON AS OF 1997.

HE CAN'T COME BACK.

THE FUCKING END.

Now, to normal folks like you and me who don't make the mistake of thinking that all of Yog-Sothery forms a cohesive whole that never contradicts itself, this is really cool, but not that big of a deal. If you go with it, there's about 15,000 other Great Old Ones you can use, and if you don't, no one really cares.

But read that bit off to a hardcore Mythos "scholar?" Pande-fucking-monium. "Cthulhu can't die! He's a god!"

No, no he's not. He's an alien with suspiciously octopus-like DNA, as Tina's story will attest. Yes, Cthulhu's kids have DNA. Weird? Not really, there are still real life scientists who think that all alien life in the entire universe MUST be made of DNA, and it's why we haven't officially recognized some Earthlings as being alive. They're called Nanobacteria, and they will fuck you up, but to some real live professional scientists, they are actually MORE alien than, say, Ghatanothoa.

But wait wait wait wait... hold the phone here. So who's Cthynhi, you ask? Well, Cthynhi IS Cthulhu. Sort of. He is the child of Cthylla and Mike the Mechanical monster (and also, *SPOILER* Katherine whatever her last name was) that is the supposed reincarnation of great Cthulhu himself.

At first Cthynhi seems relatively unremarkable for a great old one. Created via artificial insemination and reverse-genetic-engineered tech talk, the new great Cthulhu is essentially a carbon copy his mother, with no variations in form other than not having any pigment in his body.

But through, I guess magic or something, Cthylla transfers Cthulhu's... I don't know, soul or whatever, into Katherine's womb, creating either an Aryan super baby or a slimey, bloody ball of tentacles most likely analogous to Cthynhi's previous form.

The story is focused on the observation of Cthylla in a controlled environment and the personal crisis Katherine has gone/is going through about her inability to carry a child to term. Her womb is like poison to babies, I guess. Heheh, baby poison. Anwyas, the tone of the story extremely similar to "At the Moutains of Madness" with, if you can believe it, an 100% reliable narrator. Because of this, we learn a lot about the GOOs in the story as hard facts that wont sit well with the CM crowd. Just more reasons to love the story.

But as events wear on, it becomes apparent that Cthylla and her child aren't... all that predictable. Actually, that bit about Cthulhu's "soul" isn't really a joke. Cthylla touches the pregnant Katherine's belly with one tentacle and wraps another one around the young Cthynhi, sends a jolt into Kath, and then neglects Cthynhi, who starts to wither away like a husk. It should be obvious whats happening here.

And that's, unfortunately, all there is to him so far. I haven't seen any other stories featuring Cthynhi other than Tina's. It SEEMS really important, but just as hypocritical as always, CM folks seem to have forgotten this story exists, despite it's strict adherence to the Lumley and Lovecraft canon and Earth-shattering revelations that effect the main character of the series.

But what of Cthulhu? If Cthynhi is Cthulhu's reincarnation, then how did Cthulhu die in the first place? The good news is that there is an answer. The better news is that, if you're still reading, you're going to love it.

 Yep. Godzilla killed him.

Now, sure, Godzilla vs. Cthulhu is not canon to the Heisei series, no one is arguing that. It is, after all, fan fiction. Really good fan fiction that somehow makes this obnoxiously one-sided match seem fair (mostly through superfluous description of how long it takes Cthulhu to launch an "attack"), but fan fiction none the less.

However, it is the ONLY story ever written that gives so much as even a hint of just how Cthulhu is supposed to be dead in 1997. If you've read it, you'll recall that at the end of the "fight" Cthulhu takes a nasty hit from Godzilla's beam and realizes that if he continues to press his luck, he's going to die, and then runs away, hides in his tomb, and, here's the best part, PURPOSEFULLY RE-SINKS R'LYEH TO GET AWAY. So, the fight was near fatal for Cthulhu.

But that's not enough evidence, could Godzilla's beam weapon really be enough to kill Cthulhu in, as far as I can recall, one hit? Oh good lord yes. Follow along with me and let's figure out what happened together:

While the "sealed away by Elder Gods" bit is unique to three specific authors and isn't utilized outside of their work, the fact remains that Cthulhu is sealed underwater. By elder gods? Depends on who you ask, but Lovecraft would have told you that Cthulhu's city sank at an incredibly opportune time to save him from the "stars" because the "stars weren't right." To your average cultist nutjob this sounds like a mystical prophecy regarding the alignment of the stars in the sky. The night sky. Of earth. Well, that doesn't hold up very well to the whole "not being from earth" part, does it?

The tales from when Cthulhu was most active and NOT on earth come from his stay near the double-star Xoth. It was here that Cthylla herself was born, and where there happened to be a metric shit-ton of Great Old One and Outer God related occurances. Take your pick of GOO, I'll bet you dollars to donuts they were active in the Xothic system simultaneously with Cthulhu. So what is it about Xoth that attracted all those monsters, or, perhaps more accurately, all those writers?

Donald Tyson's Necronomicon (the ONLY serious complete effort) tells us that it isn't the alignment of the stars, but their color. Xoth is green. Green is not a color of star that appears naturally. Something was up with Xoth that made it green. When it was green colored, Cthulhu and his kin were thriving. On earth, with a yellow sun, Cthulhu eventually sunk himself until the sun's color was right.

Meaning, you know, green. It's actually incredibly simple, but it doesn't seem to click for a lot of folks. However, there is a sort of failsafe in the necronomicon. While the idea that different colors of radiation (hint), such as the hottest naturally occurring star, blue (hint hint), could be used to actually kill Cthulhu, it wouldn't really kill him because of a poorly worded passage about sigils on another planet that allow the GOOs consciousness to be passed into a different physical body. The exact process through which this occurs is poorly worded, like I just said, probably because it is not understandable in human terms.

Remember now, GOOs are still the children of Outer God's. Physical body or not, there is still something extra-cosmic about them that is literally impossible for us to understand fully. Obviously, this is what is meant by Cthynhi being a "reincarnation." It also means that blue radiation is the most deadly force in the universe to the physical body of (at least) Cthulhu.

So, Godzilla happened.

Now we have a failsafe explanation for the event's of "In His Daughter's Darkling Womb," as GXC occurs in between Godzilla vs. Space Godzilla and Godzilla vs. Destroyah, somewhere around 1995. But how can a non-canon fanfic in one continuity count as a viable prequel for something in another?

That answer, my friends, is the most glorious thing about Yog-Sothery. It's not a media empire. There is no singular controlling force. Ideas and names flow freely to be reinvented and reinterpreted throughout the decades from an innumerable number of perspectives and styles. James Ambhuel and the CoC rpg have also written Godzilla into the "Mythos" as well.

Now, for all the macho posturing this blog does, it's important to remember that I really do hate the "Mythos," and that Yog-Sothery is the real deal. Because of this, I don't really care whether someone wants to write a story about Cthulhu taking place in 29X6, it's all gravy. What IS important here that in the "Mythos" you do not have the luxury of NOT using Cthynhi, since he replaced your main character.

And that's really all that Cthynhi is notable for, honestly. We've seen one possible way a GOO can be born, but the monster itself is just an octopus/human hybrid. The story is far more remarkable than the monster itself, which, depending on who you ask, might be a good thing.

And having concluded my discussion of the controversy that Cthynhi creates, there isn't any more to say about the little bugger except that I hope somepony uses him again. I would like to see a grown up Cthynhi. That would be hella-sick.

Next time: probably Hoppwood Tenant or... naw, I'll save him for later. Maybe a classic, like a CAS one or something. I'll figure it out later. 

You know what Google? Fuck you. No, seriously, fuck you to hell

So I just found out SDA sent me an email. That's Scott David Aniolowski for the non-cool kids. This was in response to that big ass post I made about the GOO family tree.

Thing is, Google+ is fucking bullshit. It ruined everything forever and I hate it. I told Google to delete my fucking account but it was like "no thanks."

Why is that important? My Google+ page was basically an unbelievably private thing that I only used for one extremely specific purpose related to an extremely small group of people who were really close friends at the time. When that purpose was negated, it didn't need to exist anymore.

But Google+ is NOT gmail, right? So why does my Google+ name (which I FUCKING DELETED) show up on my emails? Probably I'm the only one that cares, but it pisses me off in ways I could have never imagined.

So in case my last post wasn't a clear enough indication, I'm never signing up for any social networking site ever again ever. If they can come in and change whatever the fuck they want on your god damn email, then I can't trust them ever again. Any of them. Fuck them all to hell. I hope google goes bust and yahoo wins.

But in case you're wondering, the name was a joke based on a video game that CERTAIN FAGGOTS (>=/) took WAAAAAY too seriously. I'm not looking forward to explaining that crap in the future.

Also, since I've gotten a lot of attention for writing about Yog-Sothery, I'm going to continue that trend, I suppose.

Maintaining a Presence in Social Networking

Takes up more time than I care to commit to it. I'm not really wired to treat social networking with anywhere near the same importance as, you know, real life. Updating stuff on a regular basis becomes a second job because you have to make yourself do it. I'm not really interested in that.

I still do things in a social networking perspective sporadically, but I don't feel like I should have to go out of my way to tell an audience of no one something stupid just to let them no i'm alive.

Now, that said, there are some things I do WANT to do as far as social networking is concerned. Usually, though, they get sidetracked or they turn into something else. There was this thing I got into for a while where I was gonna fill a book with accurate sketches of as many GOOs and OGs as I could cram in there, and then put them up on deviantart. Thing is, there are some things on dA I'd want to clean out since they were sort of meant for a really small audience (like 2 people), and it means that I would have to scan something like a billion pages out of a book without tearing out the pages, and it meant having to track down a fark load of stories that I'd have to either special order or that, in some cases, I have no real interest in reading, etc. etc.

So that book is just sort of sitting on my impromtu coffee table now.

Or, what about the time, on this very blog, I set about tracing the timeline(s) of the entire Godzilla/Tohoverse-Multiverse? That was taking an extraordinary amount of time. Eventually, I became interested in other things. Then, when I'd come back to it, I would be intimidated by the amount of work it would take to finish, plus no one was actually reading it anyways.

There are other unfinished projects on this blog, too: the ideas for the Eddie Dombrowski-centric Silent Hill game, the original idea I had for a Silent Hill game, how to fix pokemon, other dinosaur stuff, alien life cycle, and a whole bunch of stuff I never even finished or posted!

Now, maybe you think it's ironic that I'm writing a whole blog post about how I don't really care about keeping up with blogs, and it is, but it should serve a purpose as a disclaimer or something.

At any rate, I wanted to get it off my chest. But I'm seriously bored with this now, so I'm going to watch Freelance Astronauts play Oregon Trail now.




...no, I still haven't played the new Alice yet. Yes, I will soon. Before I turn 24 for certain, because then it will lose a good portion of it's impact. Yes, I've avoided spoilers because I have some REALLY OBNOXIOUSLY HIGH expectations for it. Yes, that means I am going to assume that there is a REASON she relapses outside of just wanting to be darker and edgier for darker and edgier's sake. It's not Tim Burton, after all, although the only things that bothered me about that movie were the homogenizing of the red queen and the queen of hearts, and the fact that Johnny Depp is now officially playing the same character over and over and he completely fucking ruined the mad hatter, and I hate him and never want to see him in anything after Edwards Scissorhands again.

Harumph. =/
