Am I the only person now wanting a comedy SlenderBlog? Laughing

I had been mulling over the idea for a long time, but to be honest, I don't have the focus or the drive to spend an entire year on a single thing like that. It would either have to be a short term project or something that people don't mind petering out. XD On the other hand, if someone else is planning on PMing a simply satyrical blog, poke me/PM me. I know I have a few ideas kicking around that I'd be willing to share.

My advice to any potential PM's would be to create your own SM mythos...have a simple, but in-depth back story to pull from, and reveal things little by little. Another tip would be to absolutely find a way to regulate comments the way MH has done. I know a lot of users cry foul at that stuff...but I think it can muddy the waters when commenters can post whatever they want.

QUOTED FOR TRUTH! This would solve a lot of the cloned blogs that seem to pop up in waves! If you work on a solid back story utilizing the basic SM themes, you'll wind up with something stronger than just ganking Slendy whole-sale from MH or another Slender-blog and having him stock your self-insert character.

Although if we start seeing glittery Twilight Slendys fighting shirtless six-pack abbed Maskys than I'm done.

T_T I think that I've seen this on Deviantart already. *sob*

I may have to kill everyone involved with it if that happened, or just slap them all with a really really big fish. That is something no man should ever have to endure.

First few posts have to be a random thing, a post apologizing for not posting more, and then a promise to post more often.

All made within ten minutes of each other.

EverymanHYBRID has some comedic elements to it...but you're right...a straight satire would be golden..

Well, there already is the Marble Yellowjackets series, but that's short and not particularly funny.

As far as the topic itself...one problem I think PM's run into is which mythos to pull from. There are the elements introduced on the SA forums...there are the MH videos and countless blogs to pull from.

Yeah, I think that would be best. At the very least, it wouldn't be the same old re-tread.
