Stan and Lou -- More COH audio

That cheers me up, _Wyll_.

I never really sat down consciously to try to write these scripts with anybody in mind except myself. I put into them the things that make me laugh: absurdly logical beginnings that lead to specious conclusions, fast-paced dialogue, the incongruous combination of a stupid guy using big words, and poking holes in the game world from the inside. I like Stan and Lou to use language that is just a bit profane, but neither explicit nor R-rated, because I figure it's a teen game — "crap" gives the right impression of rudeness without being over the top.

But I don't really think to myself, "Who is going to laugh at this? Is this just too bizarre? Is this suitable for children? What will people say?"

I'm glad that so many people appear to enjoy them. Maybe it's because Stan and Lou don't willingly suspend disbelief in their world, as we gamers do: to them, the weird rules of the game is reality.

Keep doing that voodoo that you do is my advice. I think it is a winning formula.

A good example is the candy machine. I had a very similiar argument with Princess X (my 6 year old daughter). She was determined to find out who stocked the candy machine or why the deves would put them, but not let you use them. I spent ten minutes arguing about those blasted Candy Machines (Lady Rose joined in as well) before it was agreed that I would PM the devs on their behald to ask about the damn candy machines.

I nearly peed my tights over that S&L exchange. Deja vu... ohr yes, my arch enemy.

Awesome. Purely awesome.

I wonder what the Guy in the Hat's powers are? We're inclined to think SS/INV, but all we've heard so far is he's definitley a Scrapper or Tanker due to his immoblize resistance.

Or he just has combat jumping.

I'll let you puzzle that one out.

So who here has actually tried making the superhero known only as 'The Man in the Hat'?

So many hats... so... so many hats.

I love it! That's fantastic!

Thanks, Marcian... but I have to give you due credit about the idea about the gun recipe being prohibitively expensive. I was trying to think why "filling him full of holes" wouldn't work, and you had the answer.

"He called yesterday."

"He... he did?"

"He called and fired us, Stan. We've been canned."

"But we haven't even met 'im yet. How cann'e-"

"He said he would be better of having never met us, so he isn't going to."

Stan...?

Lou...?

Where are you guys? I need my dose of funny!

=;_;=

Sorry, Tundara... Thursday, Friday, and Saturday nights I've got performances... Sunday I have a matinee. Hopefully Sunday evening, or Monday, I'll be able to get another Stan and Lou.

Fortunately, after that, I'm all done with THIS play (and move on to the next one, for which my burdens will be much less).

Break a leg! =^_^=\m/


So... you get to do those voices in plays, too? <_<

They're typing up a bunch of new Geigo scripts as we speak.

Not those voices, no. Right now I'm playing a lawyer from Mississippi, who works in Memphis. Previously, I've played an Egyptian stockbroker, a London military sergeant, and a New York humor columnist. I've also played a sultan, an oily Russian diplomat, and a Hispanic fire chief.

But I've never used these voices before. I have quite a few voices, you see...

I've finally got the next Stan and Lou script written. It was a bit harder to get this one down than I had expected. There was so much I wanted to do, but making it fit, making it comprehensible, and making it funny... well, I'll let you be the judge of that.

I'll record it tonight.

P.S. If you thought the pronunciation of 'Talos' was bad, wait until this episode with 3l33t Haxxorx from the Fr3aksh0w...

So appropriate that Freakshows are the ones with the silly names.

You have a great understanding of the cultures. I love it!

Woohoo!
