Part 4: You're looking at it




Just saying, there is a very, very, very small chance that some of you may be offended by panel 11, if that is the case, then, errr...... Sorry?

Now, with that out of the way, part 4! This was going to be a bit longer, but oh well...

That last panel, was such a chore.....

Credit for the backgrounds here...

Panels 1, 2, 3, 5 and top left in 12

Glad you liked it! Your backgrounds were very helpful, I estimate that they saved me about 15 hours work (Im really bad at backgrounds) Thats one of the reasons part 4 took so long, The last panel, I spent about 9 hours drawing the backgrounds for it, only to delete them, and replace them with the current ones. (Seriously, my self drawn backgrounds were rather crude and looked like the background equivalent of a coffee stained doily, whatever that means)

The only thing that offends me about panel 10 is that Derpy_Hooves isn't higher on the list.

But otherwise, great job.

I was wondering where this was going, but if computer games do exist in Equestria, which is actually canon now, I could see this happening.

I was actually referring more to panel 11, but the more I think about it, the more ridiculous the concept of someone actually being offended by it seems.

Also, now that you mention it, yeah, derpy's leaderboard position is pretty offensive isn't it! It makes sense though, I mean, the muffin race has a lot of balancing issues. being made of muffins and all, they are especially susceptible to bullets.

lol, I suppose it is a fairly good position considering her race. If she was an other she would be at the top!

How is it that creatures that don't even have "fingers", were able to attain the top ranking?

They can control the computer with cute facial expressions. That's how they did it, clicks per minute become irrelevant!

Photonicsoup In reply to afoxcas [2012-05-10 00:15:56 +0000 UTC]

The one with korea in. for some reason, I can see some people getting offended by that, ridiculous I know, but still...

(Obviously its not the presence of korea in the comic, its more the whole South Korea = starcraft 2 land implication)

Alfadorfox In reply to Photonicsoup [2012-05-13 15:51:19 +0000 UTC]

Why would that be offensive? It's TRUE. My boyfriend is ex-Army and was deployed to Seoul, and he confirms: South Korea IS Starcraftland. They have multiple entire TV channels dedicated to showing matches, the equivalent of ESPN over here. It really is that big there.

Photonicsoup In reply to Alfadorfox [2012-05-13 19:12:37 +0000 UTC]

I dunno, but my luck is such that if I didn't put that in, then someone would be offended, Sod keeps a close eye on me, and he's fairly strict with his law.

ruki25 In reply to Photonicsoup [2012-05-11 02:17:56 +0000 UTC]

It pretty much is bro, I lived there and I am half Korean. They got channels where you can watch Starcraft matches... And they are present in all servers...

Photonicsoup In reply to ruki25 [2012-05-11 12:09:58 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I mean, I know its absolutely huge there, I'm just not sure if koreans view it as a negative stereotype (Like the Irish, and drinking

ruki25 In reply to Photonicsoup [2012-05-13 00:44:34 +0000 UTC]

I don't, andit pretty much is the truth... Maybe from foreigners it racist but when a Korean asks or says another Korean likes Starcraft it usually is acceptable and true
