Sorry for not responding, keyboard is taking forever to ship. I'm probably only going to make a few more avatars, but I have something big I'm working on coming soon... =)

Yea, but you know if I put Tom in the poll, no other characters would get voted for. Plus Tom's so totally awesome, he's considered to be a 'primary' character!Soylent Bacon said:
Sorry for everyone who's been asking for avatars, but they take too long for little value. Although I'll still be making videos about DA on my YouTube channel (click here [http://www.youtube.com/user/WolfDevastator]) so go there and subscribe to see more DA greatness. I'm also working on a DA desktop background, I'll have that finished in a few days. Here's my latest video, quite epic and has a little story twist to it, enjoy.
Here's a really anal request. In the finaléheyhey I played the guy who suggested that The Man Upstairs was Cool Spot. If you could make one of me somehow that would be cool. Especially a moving one, God I'd love a moving one.Wolf Devastator said:
Mega anal fact, the bit where I'm holding the 7-Up can was just us pissing around between takes. Myself and Jamie (who did the "I'm looking for Yahtzee" bit) filmed both scenes for each of us and the original plan was to have the 7up can in shot for the Yahtzee bit after the Cool Spot bit. A very very subtle visual gag, we're English and we do that.
I also wrote and filmed the bit with the girl who thinks there is a man upstairs (and goes to have SeXxXxXxXx with him.) If you look closely at the bottom of the screen you can see that her laptop is actually stacked on top of a couple of books to make it fit into the screen with the angle we wanted. As far as I know she is the only person in the entire series with any formal acting training, she's currently at Oxford Drama School. To get even more geeky and anal she's also in this advert at 1:43, the girl with the headband

I interviewed The Michaels on Skype for a 36 hour charity radio show I did last year, that's how I got in contact with them. To pay me back they put a very brief voice clip of me into episode 7 (on the radio at about 2:06, just before sqr9 Dog speaks.) We kept in contact through Facebook and my friend Jamie saw me post a video up, loved it and got in contact with Shanks about cameras and stuff (I should probably plug his film company http://www.youtube.com/esquirefilm)
When the finale rolled round I was knee deep in Uni work but got a message from Shanks asking if Jamie and I could film those two scenes, I ditched my work and got it done the next day. My one (Cool Spot) was done in Jamie's room and his bit was done in the bar that he lives above (RSVP in Woking.) We then filmed the scene with the girl a couple of days later after a series of coincidences that even the most hardcore of fans wouldn't be interested in.
Anyway, that was my involvement with the show. Sorry if it seemed mega-boring, but I'm an intense fan of the show and like knowing everything about it. Thus if anyone is of a similar level of fandom then I'm sure they might've found something remotely interesting in all this. Whatever I do with my professional career I doubt that anything will ever surpass my DA experience, at least on a personal level. As someone who watched it from the start and saw it grow it was an honour to be a mild footnote on the end credits. What a show. I hope it's over, it's fine as it is and it doesn't need playing with. From what I know of Shanks I doubt he'd want to add to it anyway.
Also, thanks for putting all the stuff up on youtube (I assume you have the same name on there.) You're My Friend must've got about 50 views from me and my friends alone.
Don't worry, I'm just as big a DA fan, I'd enjoy reading anything related to it.AndyVale said:
You're right about having it end, though I'd watch anything Michael Shanks puts out, so another different series would still be awesome
Yeah that's my YouTube Channel [http://www.youtube.com/user/WolfDevastator], and I've also watched some of the videos over and over again (probably watched the DA Tribute video and Doomsday Arcade in a Heartbeat over 20 times each, even after spending hours making them)
Here's a preview to the background I'm making, I'm probably about 60% done, but it's still functional enough that I use it as my background already. It's based off the resolution of my screen, so if you use something different then you'll have to crop it yourself. The blank space on the bottom is so my taskbar doesn't cut off part of the bottom.Meatman said:Sweet. I'm sure you'll do it justice.Wolf Devastator said:

The actual size is 1520x950, the one linked above will probably be smaller thanks to photobucket.
Dicelord without a doubt, there was something about him that wass just so freaky, then of course Lazorcat.
Well here, might as well have the full quality version then... Download link [http://www.mediafire.com/?neemygmd1mz]Meatman said:Looks pretty good, I'm using it now
I still haven't had enough of Doomsday Arcade, so since I've been rather bored lately and wanted to test how well my new laptop edits video, here's a new series of videos I made. I've finally figured out the perfect formula to get the videos to appear in HD on YouTube, so I'll no doubt be re-editing and uploading some of my older videos soon, so take a look at my Doomsday Arcade YouTube channel and subscribe!

These new videos aren't as inventive as my others, but if you particularly liked one of these characters, than I'm sure you'll enjoy them =)

Alright, this'll be my last post here, unless people are still showing some interest. Here's my latest mixup, the You're My Friend song from the final episode, edited to how I would want it to be like. Enjoy
I'd just like to say that I love (not loved, love) Doomsday Arcade and I really hope they make a DVD of the series with some cool extra stuff since I would buy it in an instant.
