Blue's IQ

Has anyone else noticed that Blue's intelligence level seems to have dropped since his typical drink switched from coffee to beer?

I also think Seth is making geekdom look un-fun.

Blue has never been the sharpest light bulb in the box....

I think Blue has always been portrayed as the brawn, not the brains of the team. I don't see any difference at all in his intelligence (or lack thereof).

How is Seth making geekdom look un-fun? Other than getting himself peed on by Kitbeagle, at any rate....

I probably just picked up

I probably just picked up some cues back when he wasn't as well fleshed-out as he is now, and everything about him reminded me of the very intelligent but slightly goofy Mistah Rob.

And Seth? He just seems very cynical of others' suggestions at the moment. He might be PMS'ing or something, because I do see him having fun with his own ideas.

Must note, I'm not complaining about the writing here; I just enjoy psychoanalyzing fictional characters ;)

(Misdiagnoses in this situation are much less troublesome than in real life!)

Remember...

All people have an off day every now and then! Perhaps this is Seth's off-day!

Off day ...

Considering that his foot-fur now squishes when he walks? Yeah, I'd say so :)

Geeks of the world, UNITE! Today, brother Seth has been majorly bombed on! We must strike back with the combined might of all our D&D characters! ATTACK!!!

Onoez, civil war!

Why's this remind me of the Orcles? ;)

Orcles?

The Orcles? Umm... mind enlightening me?

Somehow that post before made me dig up Neverwinter Nights from my pile of old games which has some games designed for Win95... Those don't work at all without that specific operating system, I think...

The best explanation I can give...

... is that the word "Orcle" above is a link. ;)

In fact, it's a direct BCK reference. Remember the Saga of the Haunted Typewriter?

I'm forgetful, forgetful... or not.

Ahehe... why must I always keep missing those links? It's hard to remember things, phrases or characters like that orcle too when you actively read at least 10 webcomics. Oh well. I gotta say that I liked that RPG stuff. But it's always better when the comic's not completely bound to the whole fantasy genre when it has a tone like BCK has.

Oh, by the way, I like your work although no one can replace the actual designer of the characters. Hehe... that goes without saying, huh?

Amee's picture

Oh, of course nobody can

Oh, of course nobody can replace Shan, and I don't intend to -- I just know that she needs time off and the comic wants to keep going. I've been here since it's conception, and I've always wanted to help in any way I can. :)

Good thing to have someone helping

Yeah. I think we all know the situation here. But it's great that Shan found someone to keep BCK rolling! It sucks for the readers when a good comic such as this is held back by some reason. Yeah, it's a bit selfish but still... For example he comics by Interrobangstudios have been frozen for months because the artists are busy with college! I'm starting to wonder if the forums will ever come back to life! It's completely understandable but it's a shame that so many good comics have to end sometime (at least for us internet fans, one of the comics might get into a local newspaper).

Ah great, the topic is getting off track again. Gotta learn to keep my mind put and not to start thinking about stuff too widely!
