Meister, I'm totally imagining something like this, only with a pipe and a monocle.

"Welcome to this segment of Masterpiece Theater, where we open this nondescript black binder to gush at the artistry of 8-Bit sprite webco... Oh bugger all, some of the pages are loose!

Okay, so here's how the book can happen:

Fighters Journal. The entirety of 8-bit, in Fighter's Journal.

This would probably look something like this:

"Dear Journal.
Today, I found a shiny stones. It was a rather pretty stone. Though, not as pretty as my swords. I ought to get some more swords sometime.

Oh, also, White Mage saved the world."

...What I am meaning to say is, that Fighter misses the point everywhere, so that book would miss it too. The point, I mean.

In a good way, though. I can't imagine not liking it.

And the problem is where exactly?

Fixed it.

Excuse me for prefering Brian's Black Mage jokes to his Fighter Jokes. It's just that a Cloudcuckoolander being stupid with nothing else inbetween gets old after a dozen pages or so.

...Although, I do have to admitt that I really tend to miss the point when people are talking to me... -.-; There's no way denying this fact. Might have something to do with the fact that my head is consistently floating in the Manga-Videogame-Literature-dimension.

wait wait

So Black Mage doing the same schtick over hundreds of pages is fresh and new, but Fighter doing his is old and stale?

I always felt that BM appealed more to the immature side of the readers, personally, because his humor is largely slapstick and/or RAH RAH EVIL EVIL whereas the other characters had a little bit more nuanced or subtle humor oftentimes. Perhaps this is where the disconnect happens.

If it were done in a journal-style, I'd like to see entries written from multiple character viewpoints.

Even after I learned, grew up, and came to be on the right side of a lot of important issues, I was still angry, abrasive, and generally increased the amount of hate in the world, in pretty unacceptable ways. On the off chance that someone is taking a trip down memory lane looking through those old threads, I wanted to devote my signature to say directly to you, I'm sorry. Thank you for letting me be better, NPF.
