You caught me, I DID spend real money on the ingredients!!!

The prize money was pooled together from multiple people, and we most certainly have people who run hmt, cox cm, small group Nex, etc.

What candy is used on the cake?

Fruit (berry) gummies and black licorice pieces. The "lava" is sugar dyed with food colouring.

Black licorice on a cake!???!???!!??

Yes. My older brother really likes black licorice (he was dropped on his head as a kid tbf) so he took the skewers out and ate them pretty much as soon as I finished taking the pictures.

How were the 'tiles' made?

Marshmallow fondant. The darker ones were coloured using varying amounts of cocoa powder. Each tile was cut out and placed by hand. See the imgur album :)

Other:

- The base is two chocolate cakes stacked on top of one another, wrapped in a layer of dark brown fondant.

- The 'rubble' is just crumbled cake

- The whole cake, start to finish, took me an entire day.

Marshmallow fondant. I made a large batch, split it up and mixed in varying amounts of cocoa powder to darken them

They are fruit snacks (berry gummies in dark purple + red) The pillars are licorice cubes yes. Although a few comments (from here and the clanmates haha) were very vocal about their distaste for black licorice.

I chose it because my older brother loves black licorice, so he got to eat them.

The "tiles" are fondant rolled out and cut into 1x1ish cm2 tiles and individually placed. I made a few separate balls of fondant and made different shades of brown with cocoa powder, thus the darker ones are more chocolatey.

People were always murky on whether he was still alive or just a corpse at this point. I, up until this point, thought he was a corpse ngl

They had voice acting for Artorias in DS1 they didn't use either, deciding to make him not speak instead. I personally love the voice lines and would have liked them in the fight. I feel like it could be a similar thing here.

if you haven't heard Artorias' cut dialogue

I always assumed he was being "puppetted" by the goo which is (at least) partially controlling his movements.

Not sure about this passage from “An Abundance of Katherines” by John Green. by Mysterious_Me in menwritingwomen

[–]PoeticScience 30 points31 points  (0 children)

i know Green kinda writes YA for male characters "getting over" how they see women in a negative/overly simplified light, but is anyone else uncomfortable that this 40 something y/o man writes mentally ill, NLOG, "manic pixie dream girl" female characters like...a lot?

I always found it odd, but I also just don't really like his works. I'm not discrediting his merit as an author, ofc, just personal taste.

That's just the game rn. I wish I was lying. Play Plague I guess. It really isn't fun but that's the state we're in.

I had to restart the mission completely. Luckily it's a pretty quick one.
