>>420038 Huzzah. I wanted to leave a ghost post in the desuarchive of the last thread we had as a stronger reminder, but ghost posting is broken now. The captcha won't load at all over there for me.
I've been trying get the word out to regulars, but that's kind of a hard task since I was never in any of the off-site circles other than here and the wiki. Hopefully Magi will see the post I made in his thread and will be able to get bug in the know and maybe that will get anyone in the drawpile (participants or lurkers) over here if we're sticking this out for the long haul.
Magi passed the message along to bug. Apparently bug's computer has some issues with plus4chan's current Red Alert thing it's doing though. Hopefully things will be different by Sunday or whenever the next drawpile will be since Sunday is Easter.
Drawpile host, standing by. Been a bit since i checked in here.
>>420044 I'm assuming on my end that, if Sunday rolls around and at least the regulars on Bug's side are cool with it, i just post the link to join over here.
>>420044 >Apparently bug's computer has some issues with plus4chan's current Red Alert thing Firefox with an extension to disable javascript (noscript, ublock...) does wonders for lurking. Posting is another matter though. I'm eager to know if this place will really be /coc/ refuge in the end.
>>420047 Personally Im gonna be keeping a thread open to refresh 4chan every so often, for the next who knows how long, up to a month I guess. Glad I remember this place.
>>420047 I have FF with noscript on it. It's not set up to block plus4 though. I think it's just the CSS from the Red Alert thing because I can hear a fan spinning faster whenever I have plus4chan open with that going. The site runs and loads fine for me though, this background thing they're doing is just an extra load on the machine.
This has been the go-to collection place for /coc/ since before even the wiki was made. It's been pretty consistent over the past... 16+ years.
>>420050 I remember when he had to take shelter here the first time he became homeless. I probably still have that comic somewhere.
>>420051 I thought an image with a mix of old and new (or currently popular at least) characters would work best. The tea sipping also worked well for the current situation.
>>420052 I have all my old drawings on an old pc but i haven't gone back to it in forever.
Newman's gonna end up working with /k/ at some point in the future, probably when Conrad marries Becky and he goes back to secret agent shenanigans. I've had /k/ and /n/ as close cousins on 4chan (/n/- News was created because of the stormfronters on /k/, supposedly. It also helps that I naturally leaned into Weapons since n was my homeboard). It'll be fun to have Newman and k work together since people don't know much about k and I wanna spend time shooting with my partner.
>>420053 Found it. I miss having the shimmie to make it easier to sort through these files.
How is /k/ being married to /an/ with /out/ as their daughter going to factor into that? I purposely withheld most of the Galaxy origin story about /out/-tan's design from the wiki because I felt that was too personal to /k/ to have on there for people who don't actually use the site.
>>420054 >How is /k/ being married to /an/ with /out/ as their daughter going to factor into that?
Newman and k (human name still undecided) knew each other way before Newman lived with Conrad. Conrad and Newman would be working on an investigation, then after that investigation, Conrad marries Becky but Newman would still be working on the investigation since there's something deeper going on.
At that point Newman will leave Conrad so that Conrad can live his life. It's too dangerous for him to be involved especially since Conrad is going to have a family (Cookie being born).
K is married to /an/ (Annie?) but he's currently deployed on a mission overseas so that's where Newman reunites with him since he needs his help. I haven't factored in Galaxy. Annie could be pregnant back home but k's mind is preoccupied with where he is currently.
Small update on Newman hiding from a random monster. I only drafted the monster and i think I'd draw Newman hiding behind buildings
Interesting. The daily view count on the wiki has spiked over the last few days. I added a notice to the wiki to see if I can redirect anyone to here while shit is still broken.
>>420066 That's all well and good. Interpreting events in that context at least gives a reason for the board-tans to get some use again.
If/when this is sorted out it will be interesting to hear about the "homeless" arc of the board-tans and where they went after their house got blown up.
>>420081 Post a recap of Time Weasel and his feud with the Wild Witch for thread context.
Getting discussion going here is likely going to be challenging; there's less posting urgency since this thread will likely exist for as long as this website will. It's a different mood than struggling to keep the thread up all the time.
>>420089 Amazing how quickly she got a good piece of art.
The Dynamo League anon arriving here will also be a coin toss. Same with the Crackdown anon, SLA, and pretty much everyone. Well, SLA does know of this place at least.
>>420093 We have all the time in the world here. Or whenever the usual haunt decides to unfuck itself.
>>420081 Wild West Witch is a witch from the wild west (No shit kek) born hundreds, if not thousands, of years ago. She's a seductive fem fatal outlaw terrorizing the dessert with her magic. Time Weasel grew up in the big city in the alleyways. There's a museum of artifacts that's a big attraction and instead of thieving straight from the museum he makes a list of the items on display and steals a time machine to go to the time periods where those artifact will be new enough the be more valuable yet still old enough to have the same history behind them. Just so happens that a good chunk of the artifacts in the future are actually items used by /coc/ heroes and villains in the present, including the witch's pistols. Would lead into interesting what if scenarios from him altering the timeline so he can start up his own museum in the future. AU where he wins has the future of the /coc/ verse ruined with only one city left standing, a city own by him with his prized museum at the center of it all. No matter how much wealth he gains, he still prefers sleeping in an alleyway. I hope ya like the image, a wild west bandit. I call him "Time Weasel". His wild west nickname. Age is mid 20s. Their feud started due to Weasel hunting after Witch's ruby heart for his museum, she was the first one to defeat him, but he never gives up, never going to stop hunting after her heart, literally. I picture there first interaction to be the witch encountering him after defeating an enemy to get a valuable gem she needs for a spell she goes into the next room to find TW has taken the gem and he disappears once he notices her. Later when she's at the saloon frustrated over this he shows up to sit down beside her then their conversation goes a little like how Death met Puss in Boots in The Last Wish. >Witch: What does a low life bandit want with me? >Time Weasel: I have traveled far to gain something special from you my dear witch, for i amhere to steal your heart! >Witch: Sorry boy, this girl rides solo. >Time Weasel: No, i meant literally your heart, your ruby heart. I'm gonna rip out your chest! The witch's heart is a powerful source of magic and few know about it, so when he mentioned it she knew something wasn't right with him. She stand up, cautiously walking backwards while staring at him still in his seat. >Witch: That hunger for power will only get you destroyed. >TM: Still misunderstanding me? I don't need such power, i'm just gonna put it on display for millions to see. His answer confused the witch but still, not taking any chances she pulls out her pistols and starts shooting at him. But before the bullets hits, some wave of energy burst out from him stopping the bullets and freezing in mid air. >TM: I didn't come dressed for the occasion just for a sloppy bar fight. He says as he walks under them and towards the witch. Right up to her face he stares her dead in the eyes. >TM: Come on lady, lets have ourselves a showdown. The witch is now getting mad with a mix of emotions and rage on her face wondering just who was this mysterious stranger standing before her. To be continued... The relationship between the two is a wild rivalry, Weasel sees Witch as his most difficult yet adventurous obstacle, she's even the one who got him to keep his western attire, while Witch views Weasel as the biggest nuisance in her life but find joy whenever she manages to overcome him, as he is an ongoing challenge she will never back down from he's also the only man she'd never be flirtatious with. The two's relationship and feuding manages to keep them going and make each other more powerful in their attempts to defeat one another. I wish there was more drawings of the two of them together.
>>420091 >this thread will likely exist for as long as this website will So this is it for Monsieur Le Bump. I thought the end would be Page10-tan coming to get him like an old friend and taking Le Bump to his – or her – next adventure. Now I guess there will be no bumps, or maybe a slow board has a bit of Le Bump within every new post.
>>420097 Well at least you found it. There aren't even enough threads on this board for page 10 to exist yet, much less the 30 page limit there seems to be here.
>>420096 This is a good opportunity for you to summarize, condense, and harmonize your idea's internal consistency. Pick your starting point and such. If her guns are in his museum in the future before he ever tried to steal her heart, who was filling the museum before TW?
I didn't get to ask before since it was the last post before he thread died. Who is the girl that is being claimed as unnamed family to The Bearded Skeleton in the drawpile pic?
>>420098 >If her guns are in his museum in the future before he ever tried to steal her heart Oh shit, i'm sorry, that's a continuity error. I rushed the post so i copy/pasted his first origin post without properly editing it to fit current established story. His goal was changed from the pistols to the heart later on in a meta sense so please just ignore the pistols thing, from the very start he was after her heart.
>>420104 I should. I hope no one minds if it takes long, going through the archives will be a while, and i am tired at the moment. Although i hope no one mind if i make a request for Weasel and Witch OC. I want the two of them jumping at each other with their pistols out like that one scene in the Matrix.
Gonna post the weekly link for the peeps who wanna draw. Or you can just hang out, no pressure to draw, really. Instructions will be in the pic, as usual.
>>420107 >It doesn't play nice with FireFox Like on web browser? Yeah, browser drawing is relatively new. I do recommend getting the desktop version, it's really not that big of a program
>>420108 Yeah, web browser. I tried popping in there to see if there was a way to leave a message so the regulars there could find this place. I got a bunch of errors instead.
>>420113 I'm limited by the fandom options. I could add an image to it to make it more noticeable if anyone has any suggestions. Or do you mean an exact link to this thread?
>>420115 I'm talking about the little notification thing in the lower left of the wiki that comes up when you open the site. It'll stay there until the first time it is closed, then it won't come back on subsequent visits to the wiki unless I make a new notification. What I'm asking is, do you mean there should be a direct link to this board in that notification? And what I'm also suggesting is I can add an image to it to make it more noticeable to visitors. Something animated might work best, really force some eyes on it.
As for desuarchive, there's already a ghost post in the last thread saying to come to plus4's /coc/ board and the link is in the first post of every /coc/ thread. There's not much else I can do there.
>>420025 do channel-tans count as /co/ characters? (i mean i have a thread about them on this board, but i was wonderin' if anyone was gonna put 'em here, too)
>>420118 They are something that /co/ created, so yes, they fall under the banner of /coc/.
If you mean them being put on the wiki, that didn't happen because I'm just ignorant of them and none of the anons who were into that project bothered to do it themselves.
>>420098 >Well at least you found it. I'm not Le Bump anon tho', I'm just the one who was writing the greentext with Le Bump and Ladybug. I hope to see everyone again soon.
>>420130 If they were (and I think they were) they didn't yet have the curved front and back sides until later, the first skateboards were flat all the way across. Oh well thought because BIG TITS
>>420131 It's only because I watched Back to the future and Marty ripped out a piece of wood from a kids scooter and rode it. No one had any idea what he was riding. But no complaints on the artwork, it's hilarious.
>>420130 A search tells me that yes, skateboards were invented during the 50s, or at least that's when the name "skateboard" was coined as a commercial product. The "Roller Derby Skateboard" hit the markets in 1959, but they existed before then has cobbled together contraptions.
Interesting, skateboarding is thought to have come into existence because surfers wanted something to do on dry land. Katya now needs a skateboard in keeping with her surfer cover. This opens up new idea threads of Golden Girl vs Iron Girl in a dangerous downhill race in a bid to sway the local youths.
>>420133 Yeah but GG takes place in 1955 same with bttf. It was 4 years before. They got really popular in the late 70s and 80s. Then Tony Hawk was born
>>420135 In the 1940s the idea of skateboards came into existence. They were originally a board or piece of wooden crate with roller skates stuck to them, hence the name skateboard, but it wasn't called that until later. It was called "sidewalk surfing" at first because surfers were the ones making the things and using them.
This is just from the wikipedia page on the history of skateboarding, so it's not like I have scholarly sources. But I have no reason to doubt the factual accuracy of the page.
>>420138 I'm imagining a down hill derby contest between IG and GG, likely to sway some group of kids or to get them to stop idolizing IG.
IG's aerodynamic form is better at maneuvering and turning, but GG's front heaviness allows her greater forward momentum and a higher top speed. While IG might be ahead during the initial turns, the downhill straightaway is where GG pulls out ahead of IG to win.
Guy who made Time Weasel here. I have been doing a lot of soul searching recently, as well as working on self improvement, and apart of that is reevaluating my dreams and career path. I have decided that i need a major break from all of this and instead focus on getting myself together as well as solving personal issues. This has caused me to ditch and abandon a lot of concepts i used to hold close to me, it's rough but i needed it to help clear my heart mind and soul. Apart of this has been realizing that i need much less 4chan in my life. As for Time Weasel since he's a character i already sent out into the public eye (As public as /coc/ can get i guess) i have decided to give him to anyone who is interested in working with and moving the character forward. So if anyone here wants let me know. As for /co/oper (I created him too) i say anyone can go wild with him. Thanks to everyone who supported me.
https://character.ai/chat/2LymUA9fX711QX1_VTrqz5qZ3350pBV0Yf2hrW6h8AE I've attempted to set up a Golden Girl bot to chat with. I can add to the character definition if you post some fun conversations, it'll help with refining the character I guess. Keep in mind the star ratings do nothing to aid with that, it's only for developers to look at and see what kind messages are preferred or not and have nothing to do with how the character acts on its own.
>>420156 Out of curiosity, which avenue led you here? The first post in every thread, the ghost post on the last thread we had in the archives, the wiki notification, or something else?
>>420157 I've been on plus4chan /coc/ - Projects site several times just to look at the different projects and I was on plus4chan's /co/ during the whole April Fools thing So I knew this place existed for a while, I just never wanted to post here since regular 4chan still existed and I didn't mind waiting untill the next /coc/ thread, can't do that anymore I did also believe that the hackers took down all of 4chan, including plus4chan too. Thank god they didn't, it's a bit weird to get to how plus4chan works but i'll manage
>>420150 Hope you find some balance, anon. i obviously would like to see you come back, but if that's not in the cards, take care of yourself, nonetheless
>>420156 >>420158 glad to see another of the new blood make their way here. Now we can post ideas when they come up, or we can just wait until the weekend. we are creatures of habit, after all.
>>420160 You may as well post whenever. The thread is not going anywhere and anyone here will see it when next they check the thread. It's a weird feeling. There's no pressure to keep the thread alive.
I would like to talk more about the GG vs IG derby idea. That whole thing would need a third party commentator taking the place of the narrator. Who could fill a role like that?
Would Roller Betty be pissed about people tying roller skates to boards and boxes or would she not care at all? I think she hates IG as much as she hates GG.
>>420154 What kind of conversations? I have no idea how any of that works. Does the AI just pull from the internet when there is no reference in its internal database?
I would imagine that RB would try to upstage IG by skating past her backwards while IG is boarding to establish superiority Though this might not end well for her if there are obstacles in the way
>>420167 I'm not sure. I think it was discussed at one point when the idea of IG trying to recruit Billy to her ideology was floated, but it didn't go anywhere.
Maybe the set up for this plot is IG is trying to form a gang (again?) and some of the gang are Betty's boys.
>>420168 If we can get most of our regulars over to here then /coc/ will at least live on while 4chan is busy being dead.
>>420170 I could see her has being weary/aggressive towards any girl she sees as coming between her and Billy, or hampering her odds of winning Billy's heart.
I think there is one pic of Billy and Katya interacting, but no story behind it.
>>420171 Last year anons were hyping it up. She was created on June 28th, 2015. Maybe that anon who was doing a bunch of commissioned comics will find his way to this board.
>>420172 >I think there is one pic of Billy and Katya interacting, but no story behind it. Think that came about 'round the time someone floated the idea of IG trying to recruit some villains together to take down the heroes. But I don't remember it getting very far.
>>420174 Best I can find https://goldengirl.booru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=1324 https://goldengirl.booru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=1058
In this situation I would say that skateboarding starts getting popular at Audrey's school with kids doing increasingly stupid things with them. Nothing like the 80s and 90s extreme sports (no grinding, flips, etc.), just crashing into things, breaking things, and doing dangerous things like hanging onto the backs of cars to go fast, to the point where the school bans them. There's discontent and resentment among the students, Audrey overhears Katya telling some students to come out to the park at night to meet the cool person who taught her how to skateboard. Audrey goes as herself with some other classmates and the person who appears is Iron Girl, flying in on a board hanging 10 all cool like as part of the pitch to convert the local youths or at least cause chaos. That sets up the confrontation.
>>420176 It just says wooden boxes or boards. It doesn't really elaborate. If I had to guess, they likely used the wooden boxes produce would be stored in at stores or markets, or wooden boxes used for shipping.
Do an image search for "wooden shipping boxes in the 1950s" and probably that big.

Heya, so everyone sticking over here for the time being? Haven't updated the /co/die thread in forever, might do that is 4chan doesn't come back up soon.
>>420178 Neat. Makes me wonder where the GG /aco/ crowd will have gone.
As much as I'm trying to get the regular /coc/ goers over here anyway. Got a notice up on the wiki and a post in the desuarchive of the last thread. Not sure what else can be done to get the word out.
>>420175 Yeah that's it, the second one. GG and the gang all chillin Billy checking out a chick might make RB jealous. I think the pick needs a color update.
Interesting. I found out today that e621 has a Hazel tag and part of the explanation for the tag is copied directly from the wiki page on her. That explains partially why traffic to that page has always been somewhat higher.
>>420180 Billy hanging out with anyone would probably make Betty jealous.
>>420191 >>420191 I forgot the desuarchive existed, thanks I thought all the stuff I posted got lost forever, did find the very last piece of art of Morag and Jean art I made before 4chan died Poor guys, they didn't deserves this...
>>420193 I don't like to clutter my home page with useless art that I don't have any use for and I rarely ever repost any of my art on /coc/ either, I rather just make new art instead. So I don't mind 4chan keeping it archived if ever really needed it, I just never ever expected 4chan to be taken down Also I never wrote down character descriptions documents to begin with since the characters has changed over time and nothing is completely set in stone to even warrent making character descriptions. I already have all that stuff memorized >What they can do is hop on their flying pets and go on an adventure while 4chan is dead. I do still work on the characters and I would still do even if all of 4chan and /coc/ was gone forever. I do still feel weirdly inspired to keep working on my little project
>>420194 I meant it literally. They hop on their dragon and horse and fly off to go visit some foreign lands. Meet some genies, play some weird instruments, watch the king of Australia get into a fist fight with a kangaroo. Touristy things.
