Same Avatar Week/Day

PH01 · 18-11-2004 5:44pm #1

For the laugh, let's just pick the same Avatar and use it for the week, or day. It'll be wild and crazy?
How about it?

Seriously though what avatar would we all choose? Let's all choose one of the Admin's avatars... just to mess with them.... no I'd be making powerful enemies....

If someone can tell me exactly what page my avatar is on in the avatar pages (so i can replace it laters) then i'll do it

My thoughts exactly, well nearly.
We could pick one of the Admin's avatars, then follow them around for the day (on Boardies of course). Posting replys to theirs, and agreeing with them and defending them also. Treat them as our God, just for the Day.

We just GOTTA do it, Stevie!

Ste- · 18-11-2004 7:53pm

Most if not all of the Admins have custom avatars.
Don't wanna put a wet blanket on things or anything.

Viva Le Revolution.

therecklessone · 18-11-2004 9:08pm

No way am I playing this game.

I'm not spending ages searching through all the avatars to find the one youse all pick, then doing the same to find my one again.

No way.

simu · 18-11-2004 9:27pm

Next you'll be asking us to undergo intensive plastic surgery so that we can all look like an admin at the next boards beer. Crazy talk!

You mean no-one else's made their appointments for their consultations next......

Damn and i wanted to look like Dev soooooooo bad

smoke.me.a.kipper · 18-11-2004 9:32pm

but think about how sexy everyone would be!

steveland? · 18-11-2004 10:47pm

Yeh ill grow a beard and dye it red like Devore in that photo...

Now all i have to do is gain the ability to grow facial hair (I'M 18 GODDAMN YEARS OLD!!!!)

neuro-praxis · 18-11-2004 11:01pm

Don't worry honey, my husband is twenty three and is still cultivating bumfluff.

You didn't hear that from me though.

PH01 · 18-11-2004 11:42pm

Surely not al the Admins and Mods have the same Avatars? There's got to be a couple? Oh, and by the way, we'll also have the same signature as well.

However, if all else fails we could always pick a theme, pack a Avatar, write the same signature, and then go to some Forum and spread a bit of the Old CucKoo's Nest Spirit everywhere.
Whatja Fink?

Ste- · 19-11-2004 12:20am

It's the CUCKOO'S Nest not Sheep.
Are you always into so much conformity ?

Did you not see pam's counting thread?

I think that proved once and for all we're truly lambs to the slaughter

Read the first page, I know how it ends.
Plus you lot can't count

SantaHoe · 22-11-2004 9:44pm

I think the most successfull attempt at avatar uniformity so far was the thread I started on avatar theft... there were maybe only about 10/15 of us using the unabomber avatar, but it was absolute quality fun.

Very confusing to read though... which is also fun.
PH01's idea = cool. count me in if this goes ahead.

koneko · 22-11-2004 10:18pm

I dunno
I like my avatar + tagline and all...

SantaHoe · 22-11-2004 10:33pm

tbh I think taglines shouldn't change, since those of us who aren't subscribers can't do it anyway.
And you can always change your avatar back after the week.
Trust me, it's funny shít when you have a load of people with the same stupid-looking avatar posting in one thread... really confuses people

pickarooney · 23-11-2004 12:46am

You know the admin would just change his/her avatar to mess with yizzer minds, right?

JackKelly · 23-11-2004 12:55am

ta me suas for it

PH01 · 23-11-2004 9:49am

For a few days there I thought that this idea had died, so it's great to see the good old cuckoo's nest spirit is still there alive and well. Hurray!

By my count (see list below) there are about 4 peeps who are in favour, 3 maybees and 4 scardypants, and like what SantaHoe has said the bigger the number of willing participants we have the greater the impact. So we need to get this number up and how do we do that? Advertise! I'm doing this through my signature. You might too.
So, go forth an multiply!

koneko · 23-11-2004 10:11am

Gwan I'll do it, just need to remember to back up me avatar

billy the squid · 23-11-2004 12:29pm

depends on the avatar, i would do it iif I liked the avatar.

PH01 · 23-11-2004 12:48pm

Absolutely, we're all individuals, and we'll all agree on the avatar. And the signature as well.
Have any of ye any suggestions what one to use? Or what theme? Like if we're aiming to do this in a week in December, should we have a Christmas theme for our first run?

CuLT · 23-11-2004 12:55pm

Sure, Vega has been my trusty compadre for years now; be good to give him a day off

I think there's one guy who I rarely post in the same forums as with Vega *shakes fist*.

I signed up for a subscriber pack so I could subtly change my Guenter avatar. There may be 1 or 2 other Guenter's out there.. but none quite like mine....

pickarooney · 23-11-2004 5:12pm

And yet... no pink stars?

I'm not sure I want to risk breaking my Hyman.

I noticed that too... who needs them anyway? Pink is a little bit lame... and stars are lame too.. I want guns!

PH01 · 23-11-2004 6:02pm

I want a new car

smoke.me.a.kipper · 23-11-2004 6:08pm

count me in.

SantaHoe · 23-11-2004 6:33pm

Ok, some suggestions:

The Peoples Hans Moleman Movement. [page 5]

With this one we all can only post in Shakespeare style wording. [page 8]

This one, just because it's disturbing to look at for some reason. [page 25]

Or this one for the same reason. [page 41]

Laughed when I saw this one

, it creeps me out. [page 53]

Start an Amp cult? :P [page 63]

This is the unabomber avatar I was talking about

[page 70]

Any thoughts?

Piste · 23-11-2004 7:24pm

I like them all, count me in!

Piste · 23-11-2004 9:45pm

I second that

koneko · 23-11-2004 10:07pm

the underground mole people will rise up

Piste · 23-11-2004 11:03pm

And we will crush them with our Pokemen (the plural of Pokemon)

ooooooooh lets Poke Men!

PH01 · 24-11-2004 9:31am

Who's Hans Moleman? Looks like a guy off the Simpsons, but what does he usually say?

Also, how about these...
page 75: Thomas The Tank Engine - The Fat Controller -

page 79: Sandman - Corinthian -

page 82: Simpsons - Happy Little Elf -

Page 88: Mr Men - Mr Small -

Page 101: Batman - The Joker -

In favour: PH01, TimAy, SantaHoe, Ste-, koneko, CuLT, smoke.me.a.kipper, Gummybearz!!!,
Maybees: pickarooney, SteveD, billy the squid
ScardyPants: therecklessone, simu, neuro-praxis,

m4cker · 24-11-2004 11:48am

sounds like fun i'm in.

billy the squid · 24-11-2004 1:38pm

you should make december same avatar month, a week doesnt really give much time to spread the word. you could have in your sig (in letters slightly smaller than PHO1's (December is same avatar month or something like that.

Cool! I love the idea!
And with your permission Billy, could we all look like you for the month?

billy the squid · 24-11-2004 1:54pm

yo ucan if you like I have only seen one other person with it Charles Slane

have you seen that avatar of yours in Cloud style

EKRIUQ · 24-11-2004 2:26pm

Why not Santa Clause, as it is the festive season.

Dingatron · 24-11-2004 2:30pm

Count me in. I second the Santa Clause. Into the festive spirit and all that stuff!

PH01 · 24-11-2004 5:37pm

All in favour of December being Same Avatar months and we'll use a Christmasee themed avatar say EYE!

Suggested...
Page 8: Simpsons - Santa Homer -

Page 11: Smurfs - Grandpa -

Because he looks like Santa!
Page 22: Far Side - God -

Where would Xmas be without GOD?
Page 23: Simpsons - Santa Bart -

Page 38: Simpsons - Santa -

Page 43: Gort - Lep -

A cute bunny. Easter Bunny at Christmas, why not?!
Page 47: Charlie Brown - Xmas Tree -

Page 58: Mr Men - Mr Snow -

Page 74: Gort - TheCrownSitsHeavilyToday -

Page 83: South Park 1 - MrHanky -

Page 84: Gort - HappySnowGuy -

Page 84: Futurama - Futurama 31 -

steveland? · 24-11-2004 6:15pm

I vote for Page 84: Gort - HappySnowGuy

We can all look like hobbes.

If we all change our avatars it has to be the same as someone who's well known on the board (and also someone who actually seems to have a sense of humour cos otherwise they won't be a happy bunny, and its just a larff)

And yes I think December's the way to go...

btw anyone know what page my avatar (Zim) is on so i can find it in january?

koneko · 24-11-2004 6:19pm

Evil robo santa from Futurama!
