I'll debate table Santiago

[SilasX]

Someone had to do it sooner or later...

I'll debate table Santiago



Note that, as you can see from the top hat, Table Santiago is from the more upper-class anthropomorphic furniture caste.

The translation is left to the reader.

love it. especially the bandolier on the filing cabinet. could have used a water cooler moderator, though.

[Chrono Crow]

Love the random \m/ in the audience.

Hang on, don't you know who that is?

At first I thought Table Santiago was a photocopier.

[kupo]

It's a sad world if people do not know right away who Cabinet Sanchez is.

lol Amusing concept.

[Brade]

I would tivo this.

[Mimiheart]

Beautiful--and exactly what I was thinking when I saw it.

[SilasX]

How come no one's asked what Cabinet Sanchez is saying?

By the way, I was considering having an audience member shouting "Justicia Agraria" (agrarian justice), but I didn't want to make it start to get political and violate the unspoken rule of spamusements.

[Mimiheart]

If nadia has value?

[leoboiko]

If nothing is of value...

[James]

How come no one's asked what Cabinet Sanchez is saying?

Because none of us would like to admit to ignorance.

In my humble opinion, Table Santiago might just be the best fan-created spamusment charater there is.

I hope you don't mind SilasX, but I had to draw him myself:



I gave him some dimension in my MS paint style.

That's some nice perspective you have there.

And, I like pretending I know what things say in other languages.

[James]

Are you sure it isn't isometric, Kupo? Well, maybe not an isometric projection, but perspectiveless. An orthographic projection, perhaps? I'm not so familiar with the terminology.

[Lisle]

I once taught grade nine drafting, I can feild this question.
An isometric drawing is a faux three dimensional drawing with no perspective at all - that is to say all lines are to the same scale. If you drew a cube that had three inches to a side, in an isometric drawing, you could see three sides (usually front, top and right side) and every line on the cube would be three inches (for a 1:1 scale drawing)

An orthographic drawing is a little more complex. It could depict the same shape as an isometric drawing, but would show each side individually. There are usually three views in a basic orthographic projection, but there can be as many as six plus added cut sections and details. The spacing in an orthographic drawing is important, but you don't really need to know that. If you drew the same cube in an orthographic drawing, it'd look like three squares on a piece of paper.

The hat, if you look closely, widens out as it gets nearer the top. Since neither Orthographic nor Isometric drawings allow for any distortion at all, I'm afriad that it cannot be either and must therefor just be plain old perspective, with a vanishing point and all.

Then again, I did just draw it with a mouse, and I figure this doesn't really matter. I'm supposed to be studying for an exam I have tomorrow anyway.

Looks you washed the squid ink ice cream off his face in the process. And gave him a Western hat instead of that samurai 'do...

Excellent redraw!

Stop with your dang words, you beast!

Heh, I appreciate and encourage alternate drawings of Table Santiago. I figured someone might want to do their own interpretation. (I was surprised no one had taken that line.) One thing though - Table Santiago should have a fuller beard. No self-respecting upper class anthropomorphic furniture would be seen in public with stubble!

And by the way, my Spanish isn't good, but I tried to have him say "If nobody has the courage..." (valor=courage) I don't know if the "nadia" is right, since it might actually mean "nothing" but I figured since he's referring to furniture, it doesn't make a difference.

[Solomon]

Nada is nothing, nadie is no one.

[hippopotassium]

Shouldn't it be in the subjunctive as well?

"Si nadie tenga el valor..."

[SilasX]

fork Spanish.

[SevenFourteen]

Cabinet Sanchez and Table Santiago should have their own television show.

If you drew a cube that had three inches to a side, in an isometric drawing, you could see three sides (usually front, top and right side) and every line on the cube would be three inches (for a 1:1 scale drawing)

OK, this is kind of what I was going for, except that I believe that with isometric projection the angle through which the object it rotated vertically is something in particular.

An orthographic drawing is a little more complex. It could depict the same shape as an isometric drawing, but would show each side individually. There are usually three views in a basic orthographic projection, but there can be as many as six plus added cut sections and details. The spacing in an orthographic drawing is important, but you don't really need to know that. If you drew the same cube in an orthographic drawing, it'd look like three squares on a piece of paper.

I know what you're talking about, and that's something quite different to what I meant, obviously. I did actually initially think it was what you said, but I was thrown off by oblique projection. dang you oblique projection. I think what I may have meant was axonometric projection. I looked that one up, obviously. Again, I'm far from certain about this.

Actually, according to this article SimCity 4 is presented in an orthographic (specifically trimetric) projection, and it represents something fairly similar to what I'm describing. So if this guy's right what I'm claiming is that you drew Table Santiago using a trimetric projection. The hat is just a result of your general incompetence.

The hat, if you look closely, widens out as it gets nearer the top. Since neither Orthographic nor Isometric drawings allow for any distortion at all, I'm afriad that it cannot be either and must therefor just be plain old perspective, with a vanishing point and all.

The sides of the hat aren't necessarily parallel. I was going more by the legs of the table, which, if anything, appear to be diverging. Some elements have vanishing points and others don't? Let's face it: your drawing is a mess. A pleasant mess, mind.

[Lisle]

Alright, next time I pull out the drafting table and spend two months on it. Then table santiago will be perfect.

But doesn't that defeat the purpose of "poorly drawn"?

[James]

Please don't take me seriously.
