Flipline Forum News V.3.0. (FSN2)

Hopefully I'll get a shoutout when I bring my comic back.

Brother Z: Oh, can you do a shoutout for my Power Balls' Ballpalooza tournament please?

I started round 1 last Tuesday, or is that too far back? Undecided

Currently on a Free Period checking my messages.

Sure I'll do it on Sunday, alongside everything else everyone wants from the past 2 weeks, though I'll mainly cover what happened last week.

News: Week Beginning 9th September

Hello everyone and welcome to your weekly news anchor of News in the Flipline Forum! I'm Sky DeLark, and although semi-active, still here to bring you the news all around here!

So let's start with this week's dosage already! As always, everything is in sections as if it were a noticeboard!

Blog Updates:

First of all, the KCP 2019 semifinals have arrived on Thursday and what matchups were they! Mesa went up against Honeymoon, and Mesa has been winning this match throughout! Congrats to Spencer Williams (Facebook User) for making it to the Final and commiserations to Jupitore, also known as Poisoncrene before he changed his name on the Forum, for Honeymoon losing out in the Semi-Finals. The same has been happening for they boys matchup, as Winston has been winning this match over Jeffrie. Congrats to Sean for almost certainly making it to the Final as well as commiserations to Mannie, Jeffrie's creator.

Will any of these change in the dying hours? Only time will tell.

In addition to this, there was a Cheeseria To Go! preview that revealed a new character in the game, Drakson and the fact that the KCP 2019 winner will end up in the app as well! I can't wait to see who we'd be potentially serving then when next Thursday we get the results for who wins the Customerpalooza!

Bans and Moderation:

We had 2 bans this week:

The first ban came early this week in the shoutbox after SpongeBob29 had said something targeted at a different user. The consequence of this was a 3 Day Shoutbox Ban, which if I remember correctly, is now expired.

The second ban came 2 days ago, as the scent of tears gets originally permabanned (which then became a 30 day Forum Ban) for an inappropriate avatar, originally being an album cover. This sparked a lot of debate as if it was actually inappropriate as well as if Aqua even knew if it was allowed. I'm sure he wasn't aware of it, but you can't unring the bell!

There was also news of him creating the alt called MidnightGold, which luckily was only an alt to show support for someone else's character and help them win, potentially. I did get confirmation they abandoned the account like after a day from an outside source. Well, there's nothing wrong supporting a character, but there are limits to taking it a bit far I guess. The alt was deleted, but this was not the reason Aqua got banned.

Comics:

Speedo released Flipline: ETN's Chapter 7C! For a small recap so far, Jay got kidnapped by the Beldam, who's taken possession of Ocean's body due to a curse and the remaining people had to do a challenge, while August and Skye's alliance motto became "To the ground." Now I'm just left wondering, will August and Skye make it in time for the second riddle or not?

As well as that, Scorpion (previously Azzurro) had released the 5th part of Five Friends Adventures II out this week! As the comic is gaining a bit of fluidity here, I won't spoil anything but I've been told its the longest part so far in this comic!

And of course, Kory in the House had released Episode 2B of Total Drama: Calypso Island! I personally do recommend reading this too especially since well, you guys know what Total Drama is right? And because its the first shoutout of this, to my dear readers, I'll leave you unspoiled.

Fan Fiction:
Ninja Monkey released Chapter 29 of Memoirs of a Shadow! After Nyushin Fushigina left for Torta Tech University, we now get to see aspects of her journey after meeting an older kid outside the station. What will happen after this? Well, stay tuned to find out when Chapter 30 releases!

Sign Up Games:
First of all, The FC Games had its first Elimination Cat Walk in a long while! Being Owen Vs Kelly, it was a hard battle to the top for sure, but it was Ibzy who came out on top as The Yes Men's Kelly got sent home. It is now the Final 13 and the contestants are in Fiji, where they have to dress themselves as someone from Survivor while having an orange buff. I wish all of them luck!

Also, while I'm at it, be sure to sign up for the upcoming TWG, being the 118th instalment of the game - named The Time Travel Paradox! As always, I'd love you all to play if you can. Who wouldn't if AskJoe has already signed?

Fan Tournaments:
Ibzy had started his FC Tournament! Prune Creek Division Round 1 had started earlier this week! It's Blaine Vs Caleb and Lavender Vs Evelyn! I personally voted for Caleb and Lavender but it sure is hyping me up to see what other FC's are included in later divisions!

Anniversaries:

And finally, we move on to anniversaries! The only person who had an anniversary this week was Leia on the 14th of September! Be sure to still wish her a Happy Anniversary while you can for our beloved Annual Forum Awards Host!

And that is it for this week! It's been fun doing another piece of coverage for this week, and as always, I'll be doing this weekly whenever I can on a Sunday! I hope you guys have enjoyed this edition of Flipline Forum News and until next week, I've been Sky DeLark of FSN2, goodbye.

I love the way you do that. It's not exhausting or boring to read. Hooray

Ikr this is the best

Yay, my first shoutout! Cheesy

Oh my, thanks for giving me an shoutout and mentioning Owen! Love it!

News: Week Beginning 16th September 2019

Blog Updates:

Mesa won KCP! Congrats to Spencer Williams AKA DownTime for winning! She deserves it! Also commiserations to our Forumer, Sean, for losing out with Winston. You did well anyway and congrats for making it to the final! Not many people have ever been able to do that!

And that does mean we will see Mesa in Papa's Cheeseria To Go!

Bans and Moderation:

The only major news is that Scoobybay26 got banned for 1 week for, well spamming (*pretends to be shocked*)

Comics:

Kory had released the first elimination episode of Total Drama: Calypso Island! Who will be the first person to leave the island? Well, Episode 2, Part C will reveal all!

And of course our news roundup is never complete without mentioning Flipline: Escape the Night! by Speedo. With Chapter 7D being more centered on Jay and the Beldam, what will happen? Is the Beldam's curse which Ocean has ever going to end? Well, as the night goes on, we'll have more mysteries to unravel!

Sign Up Games:

In the FC Games, of course, we have had the US leg come to a close with a surprise Double Elimination Cat Walk awaiting the losing team, consisting of someone who had a perfect score. What a plot twist, right? It's between Rachel by Q For Quality, Rocco by Ingredient and Hanna by The_tribe_has_spoken. Who will prevail in this three-way battle? Well, only time will tell but I'm looking forward to it!

And of course, speaking of The_tribe_has_spoken, you should really sign up for his Big Brother Sign Up Game! All you need to do is sign up an FC to play! You can find more details on the attached link. Of course, sadly I won't be able to sign up because I won't really be able to play, but its a good opportunity for you all who haven't!

Anniversaries:

To end things off, let's just wish a happy anniversary to SCP 457 (also known as Zech) on the Forum! His anniversary was on the 19th this month. He's not been too active, but I remember the days when he was quite well. If you ever come back, it'd be great!

Soundbord also had an anniversary yesterday! Be sure to wish her a happy anniversary too! Of course, we also have to celebrate a great shipper in the forum!

And today, I'd like to say a happy anniversary to DeluxeFaith, the winner of KCP 2017 with Amy and Adam P. D., best known for his Quizeria topic!

And that is all for this week! It has been quite uneventful but stuff did happen! Until next week, I've been Sky from FSN2 and its goodbye from me.

P.S. Sorry for it being rushed but I don't have much time to write this today.

Congrats!

Uwu it happened! Also ironically I was gonna bring the news back as soon as I was gonna be a little more active at least.

Probably will restart with a Sunday recap, stay tuned!

Sky’s typing the post now but he lost it so he had to start over.

News: Monday 18th November - Sunday 24th November (Posted a Day Late)

Hello everyone! This has been long time in the making of a revival, and now it's here! My name is Sky DeLark and I'm your local news anchor, for FSN2, with this being the first time in over a month we're hosting the news because the FSN network well, had issues with paying up for the upkeep of this topic. Without further ado, let's have the news!

Flipline News:

In the blog last week, we have only had one post by Flipline themselves, being a Papa Louie Pals preview. We were shown some brilliant scenes from other creators but the main talking point is the amazing backdrop shown by Flipline themselves! It is definitely one of the best freebie backdrops I have seen and it is one that kinda resembles Wormwood Hollow to me, without the shrubs and graves. With the Taco Mia pack obviously looming soon as well, this going to be one update I'll love for sure!

Bans and Moderation:

This week was quite barren for bans and moderation apart from one 24 hour shoutbox ban earned by De Ja Vu for rudeness on Monday 18th November. He has admitted his mistake since and as far as I know, I don't think that'll happen ever again! He is as of this news announcement, unbanned.

We also have had a few people unbanned from the events of the week before, being The Color of Mood is Blue and Abu. They were banned for 3 and 7 days, respectively for spamming . The Color of Mood is Blue was unbanned on the 20th November 2019 while Abu was unbanned on the 24th November 2019. We honestly wish them a warm welcome back and that whatever happens, let's hope they don't get banned again!

Forumer Comebacks:

We also, have witness a lot of past Forumers return last week, myself included.

pastelFailure and Chieko returned briefly on the shoutbox, while this was Almei's first full week on the Forum. If I missed you out and you returned, I definitely do apologise but I wasn't too aware of exactly who else came back! Furthermore. Archie was active on the Forum too for the first time in some time, we hope he'll be more active too! I also noticed Paramore online during last week, for the first time in ages so there's that too!

Anyway, whatever it is, we wish everyone a warm welcome back, should they be back for long-term or just a brief visit!

Comics:

Firstly, Speedo (Kaito) posted an Episode of Flipline: Escape the Night! This is probably one of the best comics we have seen during these last 12 months that on this day, it is the anniversary of the comic! Let's rejoice at this Comic's success then! Meanwhile, After Skye and Jay were captured in the hospital, the other 4 ended up escaping, but who was that 3rd death challenge participant? You'll find out in that part, even if most of you know it anyway! Also, I definitely recommend keeping a close eye on a few of the scenes, there's definitely something there you might want to spot!

Secondly, Ianiant's been working on The Curse of the Walmart Yodelling Kid: THE FIRST VICTIM! Where he posted Pages 29 and 30 after a 2 week break from the comic! I even had to catch up myself after being away for a bit and I definitely wasn't disappointed! I won't spoil anything for those of you that need to revisit the comic, but I'll just say it's worth reading it!

Finally, we have an upcoming comic by The_tribe_has_spoken, being a version of The Amazing Race with FC's as a comic! All the slots are full in submissions but you should definitely watch this space when I end up talking about it so stay tuned!

Awards:

Firstly, speaking of comics the 2nd Biannual PLP Awards are here, for all I know, if you have a favourite comic that you want to see, or just want to credit a scene of FC for being worthy of an award, be sure to vote. Whatever you do, don't leave your favourites hanging because you want them to go for the award!

I now want to interrupt plugging topics, because this next piece of news was us actually winning an award for being one of the Top 15 topics in 2019! For all I know, I'm glad this was nominated and the fact YOU ended up choosing this topic to make it that far! In fact, if you want this to make it further, I'd appreciate it if you could but I'm not allowed to force you! For all I know, you might as well support this while voting 4 other brilliant topics that made it into the Top 15. We currently have 6 votes, which is more than enough for being one of the 10 best topics in circulation!

As a result, our first page on the topic now has this banner on it!:

Speaking of which, the voting for the current round is still ongoing, so don't miss out on the opportunity to support your favourite topics while you still can!

And finally, I just want to give a notice about the 8th Annual Forum Awards, hosted by Danny (Pizzaccino). These Forum awards are tradition here, being the awards of all awards to give credit where credit is due! They've been hosted every year this Forum has existed in and this year is no exception. I definitely remember how good the awards were in both years of watching them and I tell you, it's always a good feeling to celebrate all of the things that had happened within the Forum for sure! The voting has started, while you must know that you still have a lot of time to vote! The awards are read close to the New Year so it'll be one hell of a way to celebrate the ending of a fantastic year on the Forum!

FC's:

In FC news last week, Kiefer had posted Kiefer Weekly (RIP Ocean) while also giving us a BIG reveal of 13 new FC's! All we know is their names, and it's up to you to choose which batch gets revealed first by PM'ing Kiefer some answers to questions in his topic! This is a pretty big reveal and thus definitely deserves a shoutout!

Meanwhile, the only other piece of news that I'll include from the FC World is Ianiant working to update Stanlee over this week, with the clean up being posted recently! I honestly must say I love it, and it is one that deserves to be looked at! The link I posted will lead you to the announcement, but Stanlee's info will be found on Page 1 of the topic, so I definitely would check it out if I were you!

Birthdays and Anniversaries:

And finally, we have had two anniversaries and one birthday during this week!

Having anniversaries on the Forum were -BluePenguins and Rossome, so be sure to wish them a happy late anniversary!

In addition, be sure to wish a happy belated to Big Bertha (Vespa) as well!

And that is it for the Flipline Forum News for the last week! This has been quite a big week since my return and it couldn't have been a great comeback here. In fact, thanks for welcoming me back! I hope I'll be able to give you news as often as I can and this has been a blast to write despite having to rush to rewrite it all over again! Until next time, I've been Sky DeLark, of FSN2 and it's goodbye from me.
