Forum Games and Role-Playing / Re: Forum Games: Break a Wish
Last post by Tsubashi - July 06, 2025, 11:12:23 AM
"Granted!" the Twisted Genie® Single Use Mobile Wish Fulfillment Requisition Receiver™ says in a tinny voice from some concealed speaker you hadn't noticed. You startle as a much louder sound bursts behind you like the popping of the cork from a bottle of champagne. You can't find anything that could have made the noise when you look around, but the movement leaves you feeling a little queasy. There is a quiet hissing now, like the slow leak of air from a carefully punctured balloon. Your proprioceptive sense is thrown into chaos as your waistline begins to disappear. It's working! You rejoice as you stand and walk to a mirror. You watch as your figure shrinks approaching an average frame, and then a slimmer, sexier one. It doesn't stop, though. You watch in horror as your figure turns gaunt, malnourished, and then wraithlike. You try to scream but there is so little air in your lungs that you hardly make a noise. You panic, reaching for the reciever, for you phone, for anything but it doesn't matter. The shrinking continues unabated until it has consumed you. You are no longer fat because you no longer are anything.


I wish I knew how to make an incorruptible wish.

Quote from: VonDaab on July 06, 2025, 07:56:49 AMI don't know if folk here noticed some YT video discussing Me-tan and OS-tans in general. Noticed it the other day and that reminded me of this place.

That came up in my recommendations the other day! I haven't watched it yet but I felt like YouTube must be stalking my internet history.

OS-tan Talk / Re: os tan anime staff recruit...
Last post by VonDaab - July 06, 2025, 08:06:26 AM
It is for sure a bit strange to not have any animators on board on this project, unless you already have it planned?

Are you even aware of how difficult and time consuming animating is? Animating traditionally that is. With modern AI slop I guess one can make animation "easier". Animating by a human is probably the most challenging part of an animation process.

Typically animations are done before voice acting, at least the rough animation concept. It's easier to have a VA act to an animation, than an animator animating to a voice clip. Unless in some rare instances where the VA did contribute to the animation simply from their video recorded performance while doing the voice lines.

Nifty! Was it difficult to install?

Forum Games and Role-Playing / Tabletop Simulator?
Last post by Hālian - July 05, 2025, 09:55:14 PM
Would anyone be up for playing some board games over Tabletop Simulator? I haven't gotten to do it (or play board games at all) in a while, and it makes me sad.

I'm also open to TCGs (especially Flesh and Blood & Pokémon), riichi (Japanese) mahjong, shōgi, and BattleTech over other platforms.

Would anyone else be up for some OS-tan RP? I used to do it during the pandemic, and now I dearly miss it. :(
