We at ZFGC do not take kindly to cheating. Bank fraud? Sure. Tax evasion? Why not. Rape? Hawt. Battery? Smashing through the boundaries. Cheating? I'll be damned if we allow it.

Now bring on the naked women and rootbeer, cuz Round 2 starts tomorrow night!

Entertainment / Newsflash: Video games use electricity
« on: December 31, 2008, 08:56:34 pm »
http://www.destructoid.com/news-flash-consoles-use-electricity-could-be-lessened-if-turned-off-116341.phtml

So apparently every console gamer in the world uses as much electricity in a month as a city in California. Thats a shocker considering the millions of consoles out their in homes, who would've guessed that they take juice to run? What is with the sudden "EVERYTHING HAS TO BE GREEN" movement? To me, it seems that playing your XBOX is killing the planet's solar cycle is a lofty proposition at best, especially considering the short timeframe we've been studying weather compared to the Earth's tenure as the solar system's most obnoxious blue planet.

Discuss.

ZFGC Character Competition 2008 / Sorry that last one lasted a bit long
« on: December 31, 2008, 03:21:57 am »
I had to leave town without internet for a few days unexpectedly, I'll make up the timeframe by putting the next one up side by side when it'd normally go up and let them all run their normal 3 day interval.

Thanks,

ZFGC Character Competition 2008 / To everyone who's whining:
« on: December 22, 2008, 12:28:42 am »
Chill. I'm doing things the way I am for a reason. I want to keep things as fair as possible, and in a real competition, stuff generally works like this. The way things go will change in each round, for example, round 2 fights will be up for closer to 4-5 days and voting will be totally anonymous as opposed to how it is in Round 1 where you can change your vote and see how everyone else is voting. The reason for this is because Round 1 is effectively prelims, which are taken a lot lighter in any competition than later round matches.

Don't like how its different than usual? Too bad. We get it that you don't like it, even if you're not giving reasons other than WELL IT USED TO BE LIKE THIS... Everyone's gonna get a chance to vote, and that's what matters to me.

Feedback / I cordially request that Special be temporarily reopened
« on: December 09, 2008, 12:05:47 am »
I need to have a meeting with the admins in private, this would more than likely be the best way to do it. A few things have been brought to my attention a few minutes ago that I really would feel more comfortable discussing with just admins, and no, its not really related to the recent firings of Porkchop and bert.

If not, I'll let it whirl here. Thanks for your understanding. To all who don't know what Special is, do not worry about it.

ZFGC Character Competition 2008 / GET YOUR ENTRIES IN FAST
« on: November 27, 2008, 06:48:18 am »
We've got 15 entries, I'm capping off entries at 16 UNLESS we reach 32, and I'm going on a first-come first serve basis here, so HURRY UP GUYS

38
It's 12:20 AM, Thanksgiving day technically. I should be sleeping but I'm starting to make the little character pics for the brackets. I haven't actually started anything yet besides setting up these boards for this. I'm hoping that if we have enough entries to have this up and going a week from now, but God only knows.

I'll be using a random number generator to sort entries, so everything will be fair enough hopefully. I'm not exactly sure yet how I'm gonna name the divisions, 2005 (And 2006 by association) I named the themes based off of the 1st entry in each division, which led to some not-so-great names, but who knows.

Big thanks to NeoGeo-X for the materials from past competitions, and 4Sword for offering to update the News for this like previous years.

JAR




Character Biography

Year of Creation: 2003
Jar is the secondary member of the Pwn Squad, a group formed to protect the l33t in the world from the injustices posed by the Dark Lord Snickers and her cronies. Jar is by far the most rational of the group, always having a clever idea or some words of wisdom to offset Dude's ego and Box's inanity. Jar could be considered a quiet and classy individual. He is best known for his frequent verbose outlashes against "tacoes." Unfortunately, Jar is prone to the persuasion of the dark side. During the raid at Castle teh Evil, lair of the Dark Lord Snickers, Jar is smashed into thousands of pieces. In order to save his life, Dude and Box find tape lying around in the castle and put him back together. Unbeknownst to them, however, the tape was planted by the N-Gages, and it causes Jar to form the N-Jar, a taco loving maniac who later forms the Anti Pwn Squad, a group of pure anti-l33t nonames who do absolutely nothing to stop the Pwn Squad from making the day l33t, yet are still intimidating nonetheless. Jar is eventually returned to his previous tacoes hating state, and he goes on more adventures with the group. At one point, Link, the fifth and least original member of the group, travels to a future where he had been killed by Snickers on the Snickah Bombah, Snickers' personal battleship built from the Evil Dictator's First Build It Yourself Battleship Playset for Cats. Link finds the entire Pwn Squad in a state of distress, Dude had not shaved in years, Box became an intelligent, witty individual, l33t became the new swordmaster of the Rabid Sored, a gift from TheRabidWombat in the Pwn Squad's adventures to ZFGC, and Jar was inconspicuously absent. It is later revealed that Jar now holds the peanut butter in the pantry. Soon enough Link corrects this future to the way things should be, and Jar is released from his peanut butter prison as Box used up the last of the peanut butter. Jar is also the hero in the battle against the group's first adversary, Alium, as he pwned it by enclosing it within himself.

That would be Jar in a nutshell. To really get a feel for Jar you'd have to read some comics, which I'm gonna try to remake some, they're too faded to scan from how old they are.



FAQ
What's up with the art style?

Jar is the secondary character in a series of comic strips I drew in 8th grade during math class called Pwn Squad. It was intended to be satire on the internet community in general, and eventually got its own plotline as it developed. You have to remember that the comic is set in the year 2003, and the internet was still fairly fresh concept, although it already had its own unique culture. MySpace and Facebook didn't exist, Google was just hitting mainstream, ZFGC was a baby. roflcopters, l33t sp34k, r0><0rz t3h b0><0rz, the whole works, were still in fashion. I always thought some people took these fads too far, so I decided to take it one step further with Pwn Squad. Every comic was handdrawn, most about 12 panels in length, taking up a full sheet of notebook paper. The series spanned two full 120-sheet notebooks, with some loose bonus comics, most of which I've lost. I aimed for a very minimalist approach with drawing, just enough detail to distinguish what is being depicted, but other than that, a complete utter lack of respect for the realm of artistic merit. The characters DID eventually evolve past OMG!!1!!four!!q, and I hope to get some comics remade for online viewing before the contest begins.
 
Why does Jar hate tacoes?

Jar is the second member of the Pwn Squad. One of the Pwn Squad's mortal enemies, the N-Gage, is a group of mercenary metal tacos bent on converting the world into talking sideways into their cellphones and playing half-baked ports of Sonic Advance. As Pwn Squad defend the l33t of the world, the N-Gage seek to destroy it.

Yeah, but why so little effort on him?

The whole charm of the series is the mix of clever satire and characterization, mixed with a total lack of effort on certain aspects that are usually considered vital to the success of a media character today. I assure you Jar was not made up in five seconds, he fills a special niche in Pwn Squad and Pwn Squad^2, the sequel.
