((Nyah! I was a post from opening the 100th page! Congratulations Blobking! 
And Crafty, don't rush the drawing, we're already past the 100th page, so... I guess that we can afford to wait some more.

As he was utterly ignored one more time, he only laughed as he went back to... The back of the group. Singing with Alassë when she invited him -even if he did not really understood what was going on- and taking pictures otherwise. With his jaw dropping when he saw the ashes of (Bad) Harmony. But he managed to come back to his senses and his work.
(I won't stay tonight, sorry! Have fun!)

Caramel, if you could also add a "help with story boarding" option, that would be great.
Done!

(( Yay for Crafty! 
If I'm not too late, if this wasn't obvious enough and if it's possible, I would like to have Creepy in a creepy position. 
))
He mindlessly waved at Dream until she came to him and hugged him. It putted him in a shock state for a second and he remembered. He remembered what he said about the ponies here, about the faith all of them should have in each other and understood that it applied to himself too. And for them to have faith in him, he should do his best. Because they were his friends and no matter how insignificant he could consider himself, he could always do something to help them and even if this "something" was small, it was helpful and shouldn't be dismissed.
((Yep, if helping each other survive doesn't make them friends, I don't know what could.))
He hugged the mare back, silently crying, before answering:
I'll watch your back, your flank or anything else as long as needed, and beyond!
Then he wiped his tears, looked at the cart and the ponies around/on it and went near it, to make sure he was heard:
But, if you need me to, I can do more than watch, since, you know, I'm no earth pony, but I'm still a stallion! And I can fly! And hide like a ponynja! But I must admit this would be of no use for pulling a cart.
He might have been too excited when saying that.

This project is gonna take a long time, just saying for a two hour movie.
You're right and I hope that anybody interested realize that this project could start in more than one or two months and end in more than a year. I will add the warning to the form.
Anyway, thanks Alassë, even if I did nothing special.
Also, I updated my previous post, it now gives a link to the spreadsheet of the answers. If this cause anybody some spam problem, please let me now and I will remove it from here and only give it manually to those who answered the form.
Oh, and I also added "I could work on the SFX (sounds effects)" and "I am a musician / singer. I could do the (background) music." as options to the form.

Animating the RP? Since some people -myself included- thought this was a good idea, let's see if this could be possible.
The animation should fit a 2h movie, meaning that we certainly will have to cut some bits. However, it won't be possible to do so before the end of the RP. Or at least the end of the first part we're currently playing, where we're obtaining elements' necklaces to... I don't know yet.
Anyway, we need:
- at least an animator, but the more the merrier, as long as it stays under control.
- I'm not familiar with animating, but we certainly will need extra people to draw the models, backgrounds, etc.
- voice actors! Those able and willing to voice their characters are encouraged to do so, but they surely won't be enough.
That's it! I guess... I didn't add roles like "scenarist: someone to convert the RP in a proper script" because I guessed we could do it on our own, but I may be wrong, don't hesitate to correct me.
So... I made a quick google form here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/101TAfdv2JUN3xwG7wIFyU0MExCT80_0nQfgTqpKsu-4/viewform to simplify the gathering of information.
If you know what you're doing and would like to improve the form, please contact me and I will give you the editing rights.
Edit: If you just want to see the spreadsheet of the results, go there: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AgRocBNQ03ISdHk1V1J6c2tabkdsSE93NEw1cy0yb2c#gid=0 . I -or anybody else I gave the editing rights to- can modify the results if they need to be updated.
I also added "I could work on the SFX (sounds effects)" and "I am a musician / singer. I could do the (background) music." because... We might need it. Even without our characters starting to dance and sing randomly, some background music would be nice.

((Alassë... You mainly heard my I-played-20h-per-day-during-the-last-few-days-and-need-to-sleep-so-much-but-don't-want-to-so-please-just-let-me-play-five-more-minutes voice, of course it sounded like the one fancy Creepy would have. 
Anyway, if enough people consider the project seriously, we can do something like... Opening a thread in the "animations" section on this forum? Talking about it here would make a lot of meta-talking and it wouldn't be easy to track our progress on this matter.
Pony stick figures are... The very beginning for drawing ponies?))

((I don't really like my voice, but I can try to make something decent for Creepy. It'll just be a bit hard for me to not sound too fancy.
If my voice turns out to be more suited to somepony else, I would gladly accept to voice this other character instead of mine though.
Anyway, the only fanart I've ever done was, surprisingly, fanfiction. I won't be of any help if you don't need a mediocre writer or a basic developer. Basic designating my ability, not the language.
Alassë, you have talent with rhymes and using "my ponies" instead of "my people" did sound natural. You know I had doubts about it, but they are know gone.))
Not understanding what was going on, again, Creepy simply started to took pictures one more time, hoping that everything would be fine.

I'm sorry for being so useless Blob... There's ponies here that traveled far and wide and probably could answer your plea...
Shadows?...
He looked at the pony that talked to him.
Oh, you're awake. Thanks, it's not much, but be assured that I will take pictures of everything I can...
He already took a dozen of the scenery, plus a few of each pony during the five last minutes.
(( *poke back* We surely would have to cut some bits if we want it to fit in 2h, but it would be fun! Do you have any knowledge about animations or know someone who do?
Hey Thunder! Yes, I really do enjoy it too! And... I seriously consider living here on a permanent basis. Concerning the animation, I understand. Putting school before such a project is normal, but if you know a fellow animator with lots of free time and potential interest in animating this... ))

As Blob came to him, Creepy became more and more surprised and thus, alive.
Yes, it's Creepy. I... Did not choose my name, my parents did... Blob?
He remembered that he did not really talked to the pony, or whatever species would fit the male next to him. With all the races he discovered the existence sooner, Creepy didn't know how to neutrally call his companions anymore.
And... Yeah, You're... Yeah, totally right, I... Erm... Absolutely do not have a collection of pictures I took without being seen, observing ponies on a daily basis... And I did not join the tour because I was caught by Alassë while I was taking pictures of... Erm... Not at all... Eh... Eh eh.... ..... I'm bad at lying. But thanks anyway.
He sighed and looked at the ground between them.

((Hi Fairy! I missed so much drama! And, I don't remember who came up with it, but concerning the idea of making an animation of this RP... Would even a 2h movie be long enough?
Anyway, have some text explaining what Creepy did silently without anypony really noticing him.))
Patting the pony next to him one last time, Creepy stood.
Anyway. Let's see what this Blob has in mind, he might offer us a safer way to get out, even if we might miss something important if we do so.
When asked to go through the portal, he was reluctant to leave some ponies behind too, especially after the speech he gave about having faith in each other and staying together.
After passing the gate, when the dragon came, he tried to take some pictures, but... Without any apparent reason, the battery of his camera died. He switched back to taking pictures on film instead of using the digital mode, but then saw that he ran out of it... Bad luck? Anyway, the dragon was gone and he was clueless about what to do.
When they finally went to the cave, he wondered hard if he had anything of value, but realized that even his life was worthless compared to what his companions had to offer. Being slightly depressed, he accepted his fate and did nothing that mattered.
However, when he had the possibility to search for something of value, he tried to find a new battery as much as he could and found the most expensive he could dream of: one that would, in theory, never run out of power and is able to fit any possible camera of the known world. He usually doesn't like to use magic items that much, but he was forced to admit that sometimes, they do are useful.
And there he was: sitting in a corner, taking pictures and sometimes sighing. Alassë was putting all the blame on herself earlier, but Creepy had the opportunity to stop her when she discovered the path to this place. He could have said "No Alassë, this could be dangerous. Lead them to the exit, then go back here, I will be at your side if you want to." but no... No... No... He felt useless and asked himself why he even came up with the idea that he wouldn't be remembered as the "nice but creepy pony that took the pictures" in the first place.

Creepy scratched the back of his head for a moment.

Moreover, as Creepy is technically with someone, isn't it a bit hard to "Don't want the poor pegasus to feel left out.", or is there something I'm misunderstanding or missing?
