I'm not quite sure I'm awake enough to fully get this, but uhh it sounds cool. I guess I can whip up a fancy pants badvatar for someone.
The world's a stage, and each of us must play our part.

Because I mean, you could probably engineer a mutiny on her ships and get mindfangs crew to turn her over for some reason. In fact Im sure she spent long nights in the dark of her room planning just such a scenario.
But then, while she was taking her dragon for a stroll/small town eating she realized "I H4V3 4 FUCK1NG DR4GON".
Im sure we all would have come to the same conclusion.

You're a fucking genius.

How she passed her legislacerator exams.
She gave deep, in-depth answers.
Then scribbled "1 H4V3 4 DR4GON" over all of it.

Oh uhhhh
Tavros is pretty cool, in a loser-ish sort of way.
And John.
And DD is my favorite carapace/exile.
Snowman is a pretty cool character as well, I guess.
For some reason I find myself listening to Umbral Ultimatum more than most of the other songs, with Let's All Rock the Heist being a close second.
Does this help?
Yes absolutely.
Thank you.
This will become relevant in the future. Far enough into the future where you will probably forgot I even asked this.

So, I'll make a bit of an analogy.
Let's say the kids are files in a folder, the folder being the universe.
When you Scratch the universe, It can be seen as, like, reverting the folder to a previous version. So anything that was on there before and any changes are lost.
There are 2 days to avoid this.
1) Kill yourself (ie: Throw in the recycle bin). By doing this, you still exist in the afterlife, and when the folder is re-written, the files still exist in the recycle bin.
2) Escape. Transfer the files to another folder (ie: universe) simply, and when the folder is re-written, the transferred files will be safe.
Alright, the messages have been sent!
Doing it a little bit differently this month - instead of posting your created avatar here on the thread, just send it to me, and I will post all of them at the end of the month.
If you didn't get a message or have any other questions, just shoot me a message!
TrulyElse, if you have any personal preferences for the avatar's theme (cyborg skeleton dinosaurs, rayman space invaders crossover, etc.) feel free to tell me otherwise i'll just whip up something myself

Kaynato - I am open to whatever you think up! Please indulge yourself - I like to be surprised. Be creative, maybe include your interests. I am not picky.
If you are really stuck, my interests include science, many webcomics, ukuleles, hats, and probably some other stuff I have not thought of. If you want to base it off my appearance, my old avatar is me at the 2009 New Mexico Supercomputing challenge. Actually, maybe a more recent picture would be better:
Additionally, I did not reason out my social strategy (strategize for social reasons? See top of page two on this thread) so all my online presence can be found using my name. I don't think I have anything embarrassing besides ridiculously empty blogs and such. For people with low post counts, seeing what they posted on the forum would give you a more MSPA-oriented idea of their interests. Unfortunately, that does not work for my...um...avatar receiver?
Also Poplopo, when you post all the avatars at the beginning of the month you should include the old avatar so future viewers of the thread can compare.

Only give if you think I deserve it.
Threads I like, to be linked later:
Heartstuck, MEGASWAP, Random Land Illustrations,the pesterChum family of threads, the PERL-based sylladex, and so on.
Currently my text colour is 50,23,32
which is what you get when you convert 'ARLO' (base 36) to decimal: 502,302. Of course, there are many confounding factors to this being meaningful - why not use a base 26 that starts with alpha? How to resolve Endianness in each base? The fact that the number is decimal but the colour is hex...but I cannot figure out any other way to decide and it produces a nice purple. (Update: This nice site may change some of that. We shall see.)
P_equals_NP, is there anything you want specifically? Keep in mind that I am extremely crappy at art, so it will be so extremely horrible and outrageously bad.
Your chumhandle is tiredJester and you speak in a manner Where yoru fingers tned to silp.
You said that but I didn't notice because I stopped forumming. I don't actually care.
I stopped by to notificate that because I'm (an idiot) I'm going to be running a little late.
It's not because it's oging to be so coooll, it's just going to be because I'm (an idiot).

Me also, but hopefully before the day is up I should have it sent to Poplopo, who I guess is also running late maybe because I have not seen anything posted yet. That's fine with me, I am not impatient.
Also, why are you guys so self-deprecating? This should be a fun thing, not a stressful thing! I mean, put effort into it, sure, but the person receiving it will only have it for a month (unless they really like it I guess and keep it). What is the worst that could happen?

So.. these are the only avatars I've received (or at least the only ones I could find in my inbox)! The rest of you better hurry so your assigned person can wear their new avatar. We can't have them going about naked!
(I'm loving that the avatars I've received so far have been kickass portraits of myself and my hat. Thanks so much )

I realize you are probably joking, but anyway the avatar you made is great, I love it! The feather is a nice touch.

Okay, you are right. Whereas I am a bit late because it is Three in the Morning (heh, like that joke has not ever been done around here) September 2nd for me. This is mainly because I had computer troubles until a couple days ago, so I wanted to spend today digitally adding colour to a hand-drawn version
I had made earlier in the month. Then some errands got in the way, but I did make a little progress!
So yeah, eventually everything will be colourful.
I should have it done later in the day after I get some sleep. I guess I might as well post it in the thread since the advantage of having one person collecting them disappears after the deadline.
This was a good set of avatars, everyone; I think this month and this thread as a whole was/is (respectively) a success.
