Dont wanna knock areta and rabb, this is just the way this needs to be done.

I came up with a drawing, and Green_lantern was kind enough to grid it out for me. Heres the plan:

We take as many people as we have available and divide them evenly across the quadrents.Im gonna need someone to help me do that and stay organized. Once we have enough people to get it done, well set a date.The most important thing is: If you say your in, DONT FLAKE OUT ON US. Just save your ink and hang tight.

Grid: http://tinyurl.com/j8ag3

Theres 25 quadrants. it looks like 3-4 people with 100% ink would be enough to get each space done.75-100 aint that many people.

I also made an irc channel (as requested) so we can communicate.

server: irc.slashnet.org
channel: #drawball

I suggest you all go to options> options> perform> type in /j #drawball. Thatll make you join the channel as soon as you connect.

i think it should be bigger than in that picture..thats like the size of what we have now..

im in.

Not in with you. Has to be BIGGER!

Its about the size of all the other prominent drawings on there. Get realistic.

I have a life, so I'm not going to set my schedule to do this but I'll definately un-vandalize it and fix 'er up every now and then. Nicely formulated plan, by the way.

Make it double the size.

Im in anyway. when is it starting?

Good luck is all I can say.

- Rabb

We definitely need some kind of organization Rabb. Make your members join up with this section. You know what they say... United We Stand, Divided We Fall.

Just randomly saying "OK on some date we're going to make a big totse somewhere around the top left so everyone save your ink" is not going to get shit done.

THE IRC CHAT IS GETTING HOT! JOIN NOW!

i'm in

we need to do this sometime this week or next cause i don't wanna miss it and im shipping soon so set a date and lets all agree

Im in.
In IRC also.
35% ink per day also. (Currently sitting at 75%)



[This message has been edited by Nsomnia (edited 03-16-2006).]

I'm in

how do i join the irc thing????

You have to download an IRC client like MIRC. Then you go to the Slashnet server and join the room #drawball.

To join IRC channel (Everyone should) download mirc client @ mirc.com

Then when youve installed and filled in all your info in the main typing screen type /server irc.slashnet.org

then when its connected [text stops scrolling] type
/join #drawball

me fag

add me up im in

I'm in, anyways, i think that we should do different colors, and add Raw data for raw nerves and then that sign that is beside the url in the addressbar on either side of Raw data for raw nerves.

I'm in.

If you use a proxy like TOR, you can use all you ink and log in again. Ir gets around the IP limit.

That giant group of pedofiles, furries, and ubernerds known as 4chan seems to be back on drawball. (/b/ is their 'random' forum, if you don't visit)

Will be hard to keep this up with their constant vandelism

I tried to use multiproxy with a bunch of anonymous proxies but it must have been getting my IP from somewhere else because it didn't work. I'm behind a router, will that do it? Or should I just configure firefox to use ONE anonymous proxy?

I will definatly help, as of now I have 52% ink.

I'm in. 49.3%

TOR completely obfuscates your originating IP, and continually changes it to a random exit node IP. tor.eff.org will tell you how to set it up.

Been in since the first thread.

its arete you SOB
but im in...

as long as im Lt.

~Lt. Arete

We need to link rabb's troops with ours and decide on a multi colored and artistic logo.

Goin good Lets get some more on it.

[This message has been edited by Nsomnia (edited 03-17-2006).]

Sign me up!

I would join but with 56k I can't store ink.
And it takes ages to load 'cause when somebody changes it , it all reloads.

Holy fuck, I just noticed that YTMND finished their logo!

*kicks*

Yeah, we'll see how long that shit lasts.
My guess: Not very long at all.

besides, its sloppy.

Oh wow, someone changed LUEshi Mario into Wario. Finally, some creative vandalism...

Anyways back to the topic; im still in at 28.8%

A quadrant (note: quad, meaning 4) refers to exactly one quarter of the area. You have 5 sections per block. This is not a quadrant. You fail basic math.

EDIT: You've redeemed yourself with your Foreigner nick.

Yeah i guess so...

Zoomed in 100%

The TOTSE.COM logo could do without the serifs. Trying to reproduce those just wastes ink, IMO. Colors are not included in my sketchy thing, but I don't think green + black really stands out. I'm thinking more flourescent colours. Light blue, green, white, orange, red, magenta, you get the idea.

I call em quadrants, bitch. I know what I mean, everyone else knows what i mean.

Okay, I've taken the liberty of starting to outline the TOTSE logo. It's fucking huge! =D From what I've seen, it outdoes the PEPSI logo letters. I'm keeping the thing low-profile though, so it doesn't get vandalised immediately.

I am using a cell based drawing method. Each letter is blocked out using cells. The most vital cells will be filled in first to establish the letters. the others surrounding the letter come later.
http://img122.imageshack.us/img122/5876/totseblockout8jc.png

That image illustrates what I mean. The areas filled in with green are the cells that will be filled in first.

Any suggestions, modifications welcome!

Ah, and that automagically makes it correct somehow. Stop spreading stupidity. Acknowledge the fact you use words to which you don't know the meaning and move on. Don't revert to name calling, that's childish^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^Htotseish.

Death, we can. We just need to go at it step by step. By the time we're done outlining the thing, there'll be plenty of others to fill in the thing.

BTW, I just chose light blue as the background.

I sorta piggybacked on GL's design, but it is a bit bigger. And dude, it won't get much bigger than that, because we don't have enough people/ink to fill in something that fucking huge.
http://img87.imageshack.us/img87/3783/totsecomppepsi9hr.png

That is the comparison of the outline for the T in TOTSE to the P in PEPSI. This thing will be a monster to fill!

We'll fill in the cores of the letters first though.

New version of blockout, with grid, so we can label them if necesssary.

ok i see it, what do you want us to do? i'll start on the O if you want

All of those with adsl and routers just resrtart them when you run out of ink and this will give you a knew ip along with 15% more ink

this is pretty dumb.

Private Mattboy reporting for duty, Sir!

-/\/\attboy

Help Fill in the T which is now visible when zoomed rite out

If it's on sunday, I'm in.

I just used 60% ink on the "O"

and I have another comp with ink for my a5 section

[This message has been edited by Tuesday (edited 03-17-2006).]

Awesome ^^


To all the people with a modem: Just turn it on and off. You should have 15% again when you come back.

NO SHIT IM THE ONE THAT SAID THAT

Miaow.

Count me in. 70.1%

Looks good. The O is a little messed up, Ill fix it.

No One Fuck with my Darth Vader, Or I will say NOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOO OOOOOO
OOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Since it seems weve started, img onna work on outlining the second T.

OINce we have the TSE then we start with the quads!

Would it make sense to only fill in the borders of the letters, so its more easily maintained?

count my ass in on this one.

Ay, sign me up!

Count me in too.

Vandalized to hell already Ill try to fix it up. We need more people, people.

I say let it be vandalized till its gone and then lets use this method.

To use ink efficiently:
Shrink your window down so that it is the width of the screen, but only a couple inches high, so that you can only see a narrow band of the drawball. Then hold down the mouse button to draw and roll the mouse wheel. This will make a perfectly straight vertical line. Once you've reached the top/bottom move the pointer over one line width and repeat. This is a very efficient way to cover alot of space very quickly and neatly, without any wasted ink. It appears to consume ink a little slower too.

It works VERY well.

I can crosshatch an entire letter with 30-50% ink doing that.

Im in 100%.

Gotta do something while my roms download (Commodore 64).

30% ink.

Thanks

OMGWFTBBQ WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO MY BEAUTIFUL PLAN...!!!!

I go away for two days, and it's all vandalised =\.

What was supposed to happen is the superstructure goes in first, then the fillers flood in and crosshatch the entire thing, then fill in the rest. You guys apparently went in one letter at a time, WHICH ATTRACTS VANDALISM. I hate to say it, but this is fucking disorganised. We have no structure at all, and unless we can plan it out properly, it's going to come out shitty and vandalised.

I put too much work into this, but now I guess we have to restart. I AM GOING TO MAKE ANOTHER SUPERSTRUCTURE, AND I AM NOT GOING TO TELL YOU WHERE IT IS UNTIL IT NEEDS TO BE FILLED.

!Xorm!

Yes, do it!

heheh

I drew a square on my monitor so I can correctly proportion the squares for the grid. It's in grape-purple. You know those Mr> Sketch scented markers, right?

Done. The outline is finished. We can call in the crosshatcher teams now. I'll release the location when we have the teams organized.

WHERE ARE OUR CROSSHACTHERS?!

WE NEED PEOPLE TO FILL IN THE FUCKING OUTLINE.

LOOK AT THE OUTLINE, BUT DON'T TOUCH. NOT YET.

WE WILL CALL IN ALL THE FILLERS AT ONCE, and it has to be done under a few hours.

Am I the only one that can't really see anything? I zoomed in and saw a grid pattern but it was hard to distinguish from all the crap around it.

Zoom in all the way. I've taken care of everything, just zoom in 100%, and when the signal is given (or at 2:00 PST March 19 2006), start coloring in each of the blue squares. Each cell is a component of the structure, which makes it very easy to fill, because you do one cell at a time.
