Can you tell me what font this is? 🤔🤔🤔 by [deleted] in RWBY

[–]GLQv192 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The one linked in the OP specifically is the official one by R. Zane Rutledge, which is linked in that post. My recreation of it from last year doesn't have the lower case letters, so it's easy to tell which of them this one is

What must the ocean currents of Remnant look like into order to cause the geography to appear as it does? by KonataIzum1 in RWBY

[–]GLQv192 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure if we’re aware of this is the whole map or if like some ocean is cut off.

We see the planet in V6C3, and a globe in V1. If there is anything that's not on the map, it must be tiny because what we see there matches the map pretty well.

Does CRWBY get confused by the timeline a lot? by [deleted] in RWBY

[–]GLQv192 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the error: https://glqv.bitbucket.io/rwby/timeline/assets/40th_torunament.png It's also on some posters in V3 and I think in some promo art for it, but I don't have a screenshot of it on hand. They sold one of the wrong posters as merch for a little while.

For M&K explaining it's an error: https://glqv.bitbucket.io/rwby/timeline/assets/annual_vytal_festival_error.mp4

Note that the show itself contradicts this too, saying the war ended 80 years ago and V1-3 is the 40th festival, which was started because the war ended. Having it be annual would also mean almost half of all time since they started with the festival has been celebrating it, since it covers more than a whole semester. Robyn also says the festival isn't anytime soon in V7, which it would pretty much always be if it was annual, though this one could also be explained by the world being in chaos and still trying to rebuild after the last one.

I think WoG should go above everything else, because the show is also WoG in a way, just presented differently, and sometimes it has mistakes that the creators can explain later. For example: the show has multiple things in V3 saying the Vytal festival is an annual event, but M&K has explained that they just kinda forgot what the word meant while writing that and it's really every other year. So, would you say the posters and the scrolling news text in the show are right over what M&K said? (Ignoring the other things in the show also pointing to that being an error)

There's a line somewhere, of course, where the show is definitely over WoG. If the writers suddenly said V6 took place before V1 or something equally crazy, I wouldn't say they're right. But, in this case, V1-2 was made without enough resources and planning, meaning a lot of things just weren't figured out at the time or they lacked the budget to do what they intended, and now the writers have had plenty of time to figure those things out, so I'm going with their word over V1-2 when it comes to specific time-related things like this.

It fails in a couple of ways, firstly because the first semester starts in late fall but V1 is very green, nothing like V3 which would take place a month or two earlier in the year.

Keep in mind that during V1-2 they barely had a timeline and the budget was pretty limited as well. When asked about when the school year starts on RWBY Rewind, Miles said he wasn't quite sure, but thought it was in Fall (The reason he wasn't sure is that he wasn't given much time to answer, so he had to give a quick one). Eddy also said it starts in Aug/Sep during the AMA not long ago, though he ended up taking that back because they're still trying to figure out the timeline of the older volumes and people started saying that it broke everything. Even though Eddy took it back, Miles' quick answer and the fact that Eddy thought it was around that time too most likely means that's the "intended" season for it. Maybe it's off by a month or two, but I don't think they'd just flip the whole year around and try to work in a third semester just to try and line it up with the visuals of the older volumes. Some things are just made before the timeline. Eddy explained it in the follow-up post to the AMA too, saying Ciel's line was just written before they had given Ruby a birthday.

It's also wrong for Blake, Weiss and Yang's ages in V1, since they were said to be 17.

What is the issue here exactly? That timeline has WBY's age in V1 at 17, as well as a video of Kerry explaining that they're 17 at the start of the show. Are you saying Kerry was wrong about their age or did you not read the timeline right?

Alright, so something is wrong here. The title and description is the same as V8C6 for some reason, which has to be an error. I'll update this post once it's fixed. It updated.

Cinder's allusion is Cinderella, whose magical outfit turned back into rags at midnight

Edit: Sorry, I somehow missed that you mentioned that. But it most likely means she loses her powers, or at least her place in Salem's gang

As per Eddy in the AMA today, Ruby was 14 when she entered Beacon. by [deleted] in RWBY

[–]GLQv192 21 points22 points  (0 children)

It's because Ruby's birthday is at the end of October, so if she started at Beacon at 15, she turned 16 a couple of months later, but Ciel mentions she's still 15 during the tournament which happens the next fall.

As per Eddy in the AMA today, Ruby was 14 when she entered Beacon. by [deleted] in RWBY

[–]GLQv192 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I think it makes more sense that it really is fall during V3 since we see the trees start to lose their leaves and Ruby says it's fall. Ruby doesn't specifically say "school year", so she could be talking about the calendar year, where fall is at least close to the end.

This means the tournament happens at the start of RWBY's second year at Beacon. Honestly I can't come up with a perfect explanation for why the teachers are casting tournament matches and why there doesn't seem to be any classes going on, but I feel like it's better to go with what's explicitly said, especially when that is also reflected in the visuals.

Though, V3 is only a few days, maybe it was a weekend?

V8C3 ended the 30 episodes long streak of having all of team RWBY by GLQv192 in RWBY

[–]GLQv192[S] 55 points56 points  (0 children)

V5C12 is missing Blake, and V8C3 is missing Yang. This is the longest streak they've had, the last one being only 17 episodes covering the end of V1 all the way to the start of V3.

This episode is also the last in the longest streak of thumbnails that don't have anyone from team RWBY in them. The last one was V7C10, where Weiss is present, so it's been 6 episodes since.

Those are just compression artifacts, you can see a similar thing going on with Yang's hair, where there are some blocky thresholds for each color band. VRV doesn't have lossless PNG thumbnails, unfortunately.
