I decided to test out the design by pasting it onto last year's Canvas. I also tested out outlining the the whole thing to see if it makes any difference, but I think I like the idea of other people drawing characters peeking though the ropes more than I like the ropes being easy to see from a distance.

Since people seem to like the idea of a ring I came up with this. At the top it's the actual size compared to what we did last year, and the big one is just zoomed in to see details better. I put our home instance, lemmy.zip's, logo on the canvas because it seemed empty otherwise. I'm also just now realizing we'd be putting a canvas on Canvas.

The basic rectangular footprint is 149x75, compared to last year's 86x50. We also might need to outline the ropes in white or something, depending on what's going on around us. Judging from last year's timelapse, it looks like we finished around the half way point, so going bigger shouldn't be that much of an issue, as long as we can stake our claim early. I used the color palette from last year so we shouldn't run into it looking different when it's time to start drawing.

I'm not super into the color of the ring ropes, but I thought I'd get people's opinions before doing to much more. What does everyone think?

The Fediverse's collaborative pixel art event is coming back. Last year we successfully put down this championship belt, designed by me.

If people are interested in participating again this year I'm willing to design something else. Of course, if someone else wants to design something I'm down for that too.

Last year I just put together the belt as a suggestion and we went with it. This year I figured we could get some more community input on what the design should be. Another belt? A wrestling ring? Should we go all in on a Mr. Iguana mural? The world sucks, lets detract ourselves with some pixel art.

I couldn’t sleep last night and ended up stumbling into some wrestling YouTube drama that I spent too much time looking into. Most of this was written well past my bedtime, with the rest written today, after not getting enough sleep, so sorry if it seems like the ramblings of a madman.

YouTube suggested this video to me, where it seems like Adam Blampied has started a new channel. Last I heard of him he was with WrestleTalk and No Rolls Barred. I don’t follow either of those channels so I figured I’d look into what was going on and share what I found here.

In case anyone doesn’t know, Adam Blampied started off on WhatCulture Wrestling. He was arguably the biggest name on the channel until he and a small group left in 2017 to start Cultaholic. Shortly before the channel’s launch he faced multiple allegations of trying to get fans to send him pics. He admitted to the claims, said he was getting help, and parted ways with the channel.

He resurfaced in early 2020 on a WrestleTalk video and soon became a regular on the channel. In late 2020 he launched what would become No Rolls Barred, a board gaming channel, and was also involved with partsFUNknown, a channel that covered wrestling and video games.

In 2023 he was placed on leave after new allegations came out that he returned to his old ways, and he eventually parted ways with those channels. He admitted to cheating on his partner with his accuser, but denied the actual allegations. He also has someone backing up at least part of his story. Even though this video has a clickbaity title, it goes into the details and seems like a decent overview of what happened.

That brings us back to where I started, with Blampied starting a new YouTube channel, BlampCo!, about wrestling and board games. He’s also been joined by someone he worked with on No Rolls Barred. Looking into it, the fan reaction seems positive, and she’s a woman, so hopefully that’s a good sign.

Maybe I’m just being optimistic, but I’m willing to give him another chance and hope the new channel does well. I also totally understand if people don’t want anything to do with him. Either way, I should probably go eat dinner so I can fall asleep watching Dynamite.

I found this going though some things but can't figure out what it's from. All the dice are wood, with the six on the outside having a standard 1-6 numbering, while the middle one counts by tens, from 10 to 60. The plastic case doesn't open and doesn't have any markings. They are loose enough you can 'role' the dice by rubbing the whole thing on the palm of your hand. It can kind of act like a fidget spinner, but I'm pretty sure it predates them. Any searching I've done has either turned up actual fidget spinner dice or sets of roleplaying dice, so I'm turning to all of you.

While I'm sure it could be a great game, it'll never happen. WB just canceled a Wonder Woman game and shut down its developer. If they don't have faith on a game based on one of their most well known characters, there's no way they'd even green light a game based on a lower tier hero. A detective game based on the Question would be great too, but since he's not one of DC's top heroes it'll never happen.

They're treating him like he tried to blow up Gotham City when all he did was kill Lex Luthor.

Usually when a sport needs music the athlete or team plan a routine around a song. Some might choose a song that's well known in their country but not universally known. If it's a folk song it might come off as royalty free.

With the breakdancing they had live DJs cutting songs together and the dancers had to adlib their routines. According to this article the Olympics licensed around 400 songs for the DJs to use. Since each battle used multiple songs you're going to hear more tracks that you know and forget about the ones you don't.

Any time someone tells you they have an easy trick for some life changing ability ask yourself why everyone doesn't know about it already. Probably because it doesn't do squat.
