Post Machinima writing exercise
Hey guys,

I just came up with a fun little idea:

What do you think should happen with the next episode of DWMM?

Tell us what you think! Now, just so you know, we already have the script written out and have a plan all the way through Season 2 episode 5-ish, but what do you think should or might happen next in DWMM? In your response, try and consider everything that's happened so far in the show. A few key points:

-Phil and Dave are on an adventure. It's not "tards running around time" all the time, there's a story going on.
-We mentioned something about a squirrel last episode. What do you think is up with that?
-In the last episode (seven), we told Phil and Dave that Lucia would catch up with them soon.
-Phil is retarded, and Dave hates him.


Go ahead! Tell us what you think is going to happen next! Hell, we might even reward kudos if you're right! Maybe something to the tune of tossing your name in the credits for episode 8.... Oh the possibilities!

Get writing!

Okies Im Gonna Give It A Shot Because The Opertunities To Be In The Credits For Dude Wheres My Mount Would Annoy My Friend Soooooo Much ;)

Hmmmm I Think They Have Lost Their Helicopter Type Things And Now They Have To Walk From Whichever Portal They Were Thrown Out Of. My Wow Geography Is Terrible So I Apologise. Dave Tries To Convince Phil To Do A Scooby Doo Style Split Up. Phil Agrees And Either GOes The Opposite Way And Heads Dave Off Or Just Follows Him. Dave Then Rips Poor Phil Saying Something Along The Lines Of I Fucking Hate Yew. Lucia Lost Phil AndDave After Their Trip Into The Reel World ;) But Finds Them Completely By Accident And Continues Manipulating Their Lives From Behind The Scenes. The Squirrel Serves The Same Part In The Storyline As Mage Francis In Episode 3 He Either Saves Them From Murlocs Or Talks And Drives The Storyline On Some More By Giving Dave And Phil A Destination. Or He Goes All Enricho On Them ;)

Love + Kisses Apt T Not Reli ;)
Cryss :D

Also Phil Will Have Lots Of Stupid Lines ;) I Foresee This

Right well i came up with a short to DWMM which lasts around 3 minutes. I asked if you could do it but you said Nah! However, in one of the WOTLK shorts... there was summit about shadows following them.... in the short.... i put that phil was afraid of his own shadow.... coincidence? I THINK SO!

Anyway, this is what i would love to happen:

Phil and Dave come out from the other side of the dark portal into Outland and end up in Hellfire Peninsula. The first thing they see is a squirrel and the first thing Phil thinks is: OOH! An Alien Squirrel! I can add that to my collection of Fluffy Alien-But-Doesn't-Look-Alien collection!
So he follows it and Dave ends up having to chase him. They then end up near the edge of Hellfire where they find out the squirrel is suicide and jumps off the edge to kill himself. The viewers then hear what Phil and Dave are thinking... Dave is thinking on pushing Phil off the edge... and Phil is thinking of a mathematical equasion and knows the answer and then randomly speaks out a random word. Just as Dave is about to push off Phil, he hears the sound of Fel Reaver, and falls off insted. Phil on the other hand thinks: WOAH! I'd hate to be near the guy who made that parff! He notices Dave is not by his side... an goes looking for him, but ends up getting lost, and thats when he relises he is... ON HIS OWN...!
Meanwhile, Lucia notices Phil and Dave have become sepperated. This angers her and finds Phil. They meet up and they go looking for Dave.
MEANWHILE (Yes, Meanwhile again!) Dave is in the spirit world, and as he notices his body has been transported to the edge of the cliff, he tries to ressurect himself, but he cannot seem to do so. He also notices this light right infront of him... if he went in it, he would be free from Phil forever! But knowing he has a long time to live more, he decides not too. Phil and Lucia soon find Dave, but tells them he cannot ressurect. Phil attempts, but only ends up shooting a blast into the sky (which eventually hits the Fel Reaver and kills it in 1 hit). Phil is then told that he cannot ressurect due to his class. Lucia tries to ressurect, but cannot seem to either. This could be the end of Dave... but then he is approached by the Lich King. He tells Dave that he is stopping him from ressurecting and gives him a chance to join his army, due to Dave being one of the most important people in the universe, which of course, Lucia knows this too. Lucia and the Lich King soon end up arguing and Phil and Dave run off. With Dave still being dead, there's only 1 other thing he can do. Ask the Spirit Healer. Insted of the healers voice being womany, it is instead a mans voice (like the dwarf banker ;D). The spirit healer asks Phil (since dave is dead, he cant really do anything) to do a task for him, which Dave clearly states that he'd rather stay dead, as Phil would only end up getting killed himself. The spirit healer then tells Dave all the things he'd be missing out on, and Dave has a picture in his head of one of those items the healer is talking about. Dave has no choice but to get Phil to do this task.

Thats all. The task bit lasts around 4-5 minutes and i havent thought it up. I'd rather see if the team could think of the task :)

Well its the best i can do ;D

oh man i love the show so i would love to be in the credits soooo much so heres wat i think

at the beginning mage francis opens a portal to anywhere but then dave and phil exit out of the portal before mage francis can go through.then mage francis uses blink to escape before dave and phil see him.then after a few stupid lines dave and phil find a squiril and phil wants to keep it as a pet. :lol: so then the squirel travels with them for a bit.finally at the end lucia catches up to them.

so thats what i thought of.

you can fill in or add stuff or both.

good luck with episode 8

so the ideas not that great, but ill give it a shot :idea:

ok so after clicking enter phil is transported to Hellfire on the other side of the Dark portal while dave is still in the real world, he dosent know his password but makes something up, and it dosent work
so he uses phi's password and is transported to phil, only problem is he looks exactly like phil only with different cloths.
so after freaking out(and phil saying something funny about his ''double'') lucia appears and is surprised to find 2 phils, dave fills her in on everything that happened since they saw her last.
She tells him the only way for him to get back to normal is to find the Squirrel of the Howling Fjord (random i know) and slay it to recover his natural form. Dave reluctantly agrees because he couldn't bare to look like phil any longer.
But before he went on his magical journey he needed to make sure she wasn't ripping him off like Mage Francis did, she said there was one catch, he had to do it in 24 hours!

so yeah i was basically i was just pulling stuff out of my ass, nothing special, but at least consider it =)

These are all very interesting. I'm not sure if were gonna use em, but they did give us some small bits of inspiration. Perhaps if I'm feeling kind, I shall insert your names in the credits.

Love (in a non-gay way)
-Phil
