Im the only Toad fan?
Mine was a tossup between Bruce, Dicelord, and Toad. I had to go with Bruce because he makes me laugh, Toad just makes for a great story. Dicelord because Tom was amazing and he was edited perfectly.

Now that Toadette is well, dead. We ought to see some toad badass moments
Yea, I rather like how they played Toad out, making pretty much a 3rd party in the final battle since he may not actually follow Mario. Any other speculations as to who the "boss upstairs" might be (other than the obvious Bowser). I don't play many Valve games, so I may be missing something.

I would definitely buy a Doomsday arcade DVD. They should make an escapist DVD too. With everything on it. Diceroll!

Who is Mitchel? Lund intercepted an email from nefarious and his boss. Ep. 11 I think.

something gave me the impression that there were 26 episodes, not 25. Hmmm, oh yeah...

Ctrl + F "Game over" http://www.escapistmagazine.com/groups/view/Escapist-Badge-Hunters

EDIT: hell, you have that badge, why are you implying that the next episode (25) will be the last?
Because 25 is such a good number to end a series on, duh!

But yea he's right, I'm wrong. It had to do with me not looking at the badge since it came out and all the talk of "DA ending" that made me think there was only one more episode.

But that still doesn't change the discussion much, there's still a lot for two episodes, but as long as they keep the same length as the last one they could pull it off.

OH! I just remembered why I thought there was only one episode, it was because I read every comment in the DA Ep 24 page, many of them went like this:

Thank you for the magnificent run, Lund, Shanks and the rest of the D.A. team. While I've been a fan of many series here on Escapist, your's has remained my favorite. It's sad to see such a great series come to an end; I'm hoping you start a new series together soon after D.A. runs it's last gag. In the mean while, I'll be looking forward to the final episode.

Here's to hoping for the DVD, or at least a "master cut" of all the episodes hosted online.

Bravo!

Poor ol' Lazer Cat... Oh well, great episode! Can't wait to see the finale!
I guess everyone else also assumed that 25 is a good number to leave off on :/

Hmm, I seemed to have jumped the gun an episode early. Oh, well, my comments still stand. It's an excellent show, and it will be missed when it ends.

T-minus 2 episodes and counting!

...and I really hate to be a Spelling Nazi but you spelled "grammar" wrong (grammar not grammer) and, for what it's worth, it was a typo, not a grammatic correction, thus no need for a Grammar Nazi to be called into action in the first place. Besides, Spelling Nazis are much meaner and less forgiving. ;)

That said...

OT: Bruce was my favorite secondary character. I loved the continued mentions of his back-story that was perpetually "in-the-works".

Nice job with all the animated avatars, too. That's dedication to the series, The Michaels (sorry, I forgot to not call them that) should award you a super-fan badge. :)

And, for what it's worth, I'd definitely sign on for a DVD purchase if one were ever available or for other Doomsday Arcade merchandise in general. The one DA shirt for sale [http://www.splitreason.com/productdetail.php?id=773#] doesn't really represent the show all that well (I'd go for something with the DA title-sequence logo on it, for instance.) Does anyone know why The Escapist doesn't push more merchandise related to the various shows they host (aside from Zero Punctuation and Unforgotten Realms)? Is it a rights issue?

I'd definitely buy a black shirt with the logo on it. I'm also curious to why there are so few to buy.

I'm working on a bunch of dicelord animated avatars right now, I'll have them done soon, but with Bad Company 2 taking up all my time it may be a while...

You should so do the First Person sequence in the Doom episode, most importantly the drum solo part.

Also for a complete conspiracy theory, Polybius will cause everyone to go mad and forget everything up until that point when it's destroyed, to keep with the original myth.

Added some non-animated avatars, much faster and I'll probably just go through each episode at a time and pull all the good screens from it.

So what do you guys think will happen during the last few episodes, it's going to get pretty crazy considering Lund, Shanks, Bruce & Jamal, Mario & Luigi, Toad, and possibly the secret boss is going to show up to battle it out. Maybe Toad will turn to Shanks' side to help him reach Polybius and 'end the war'? Does anyone know/remember what Polybius does, or is it still a mystery?

Do you mean the actual Polybius legend, or what they say on the show.

Wiki will give you the gist of it.

If you're talking about DA's take on it, then it's an addiction causing game that can induce mind control on the players. It also has controls to activate nukes, wipe minds, and other mother fucking evil shit, or so says Lund.

Also, you need a pic of the Revengineer. He was awesome.

(I can make more, so if you have requests for a nice animation or screenshot of a certain scene or character, let me know and I'd be glad to make one)
How about Episode 24: The scene were they kill Dr. Eggman (not the whole montage).
Can you make that as a moving avatar please and thanks.
(You don't have to if you don't want to).

EDIT: I would really like that as a avatar
