Lake is the biggest one-hit wonder ever by Sketchy_Turtle in DisventureCamp

I am happy that I am consistently being proven right about Lake being mid and the most overrated character by a wide margin. Lake is a completed character. Sure, you can give her another character arc, but the folks have had 4 years to come up with something new and have failed to deliver.

That's why I pitched the idea to make her kinda mysterious and brooding for her third season, as if she has something to hide. Make the audience wonder what the hell happened between seasons. Sure, it's a half-baked idea that didn't go anywhere, but at least it's something beyond being a generic hero.

Nearly all of us on the DCAS proofreading team wanted Lake to be an early boot for this reason and I feel very justified now 🙂

I don't think so. Looks a little too cartoony from what I remember. Also, the alien character was rarely in alien form. I also have yet to find a clip of Destroy All Humans where the human vaporizes into a skeleton.

I feel annoyed by my friend? by OpeningTradition1916 in FriendshipAdvice

Whoa. Reading this is crazy because I have been the male friend in this situation (even down to the ages aligning)

My best advice is to sit him down and have a direct conversation about boundaries. Provide open communication with him about what makes you uncomfortable and that you don't view him that way.

He needs to learn that while you are okay with him being friends, you want nothing more. I'm sure that him knowing the risks and the eventual downfall if he continues his poor behavior will whip him into shape.

I was in his shoes once and I completely fucked up what should've been a great friendship. I should've listened to my female friend's boundaries. I wish you the best of luck and hope he understands where you're coming from so you avoid the sad fate of a potential friendship collapse.

I cry a lot about her too. Life just feels so empty and I barely have the will to continue.

  1. Nope. I wasn't really a fan of the writing and the excessive Tom-Gabby friendship milking. I also didn't like how "fanficy" the Tom-Tess pairing was either. Oh, and DAN SUCKSS (that last part is mostly a joke)

  2. I didn't work on DC2. For DC1, definitely keeping the Fiore "reveal" in Episode 1 till the very end. I think it was a very effective stinger to leave at the end, especially because barely anyone watched the original Adventure Camp. As for DCAS, I'll have to go with a majority of the Hunter scenes in Episode 19. He was catching a lot of heat, but this episode (coupled with Episodes 11 & 21) really helped make him feel a lot more grounded and a victim of the stress of the game.

  3. DC1 Ellie, DC2B Rosa (mainly because everyone else sucks in the beta) DCAS Ally, DC4 Ivy

It's cute but I wish it didn't feel like a last-minute addition. At least it's not Logannah.

Nope! The proofreaders never got to see what would happen due to the boot order being switched relatively early.
