Did he mean the 28th or the 29th? Anybody know what time zone Cheap Shot is in? This is important as I need to know on which day to constantly refresh this thread.

NO THAT'S NOT ME!!

In my experience, he usually updates around 11pm, EST. So in this case, it could actually be either day.

Today was gonna be the day he was gonna update for you
By now you should have somehow realized what he's gonna do
I believe that everybody loves Bip the way we do right now

Backbeat, the word was on the street that the fire in your eyes is out
I'm sure we've heard it all before but I never really had a doubt
I believe that everybody loves Bip the way we do right now

And all the threads we post upon are winding
And all the posts we read they can be blinding
There are many updates I would
like to read right now
But I don't know how

Because maybe,
Bip's gonna be the one to save me?
Cuz after all,
he is wonderful...

O HAI I WUZ BOARD!

Help BIP learn gun?


:siren:UPDATE TIME:siren:

I owe you all two hours of your life back. I'm sorry. This update was a pain to put together but I'm very pleased with how it looks. Remember I said I'd shift the style this time? I won't be doing it like this next update but It was fun. The fourth animation is in the works and it will probably be the best yet. Get your joy hats on folks.

OPTIONS
BIP has a little time before the convoy sets off. What needs done most? Don't worry about Go-Ship. He was already loaded into one of the transports. BIP saw!
  • (1) Go get supplies. Oil? Grenades? Bits-n-Bites?
  • (2) Go hang out with the Orange marine & The Sniper.
  • (3) Go build whatever BIP can manage to build.
  • (4) Go help the marines pack up the camp.
Go-Ship!

Bonus challenge!
One of these options will cheer up the captain! Which is it?
  • (a) Try to impress him.
  • (b) Share possessions with him.
  • (c) Praise and worship him.

I think I would say to my daughters if they were to ask me this question... A shitpost is the greatest gift that you can give someone, the ultimate gift of giving and don't give it to someone lightly, that's what I would say.
Fantastic update, well worth the wait. How do you keep being so excellent?

Option 2, because bros before hos. And Bonus option b because a Captain who says poo poo is a Captain who needs a present.

Giving him a few boobytraps that paint invisible badguys would be good. Or a nice, shiny Go-Ship medal!

The last update was awesome and it was great to see Bip get a medal :)

I think option 2b is where it's at, voting wise. The sniper's been cool and perhaps if Bip hangs around him enough, some of the coolness will be shared. :D

Although it seems doomed, I'm gonna say 4a. With this, we could show how generally competent and useful we are, which seems to be the best way of accomplishing (a), and... well, with any luck, we'd actually be helpful.

Why you ask?

BIP needs more rocks or a gernade or something. But rocks are so very helpful, so get more rocks.

Find Orange Marine and Sniper, show them the new medal.

Go-Ship has shown bravery in the line of battle, and was partially responsible for your success! He needs recognition, give him a medal and a paint job (on the shell).

Also, try to worship the captain, and follow him around.

A little EQ, a touch of reverb, slap on some compression and there. That'll get your dickbutt jiggling.

I think Bip might have a rock or two that might interest the Captain.

Also the sniper is awesome, I bet he gets invited to all the sleep overs so people don't stay up too late and wind up grumpy in the morning when pancakes are being served.

1b we need supplies for the dangerous mission. Once we get our supplies we can show our things to the captain and he can tell us if they'll be useful or not.

I think it should be obvious: search for grenades to give them to the captain to cheer him up. Grenades solve all sorts of problems!

I vote for some combination of 2 and 4. Maybe 4 could just happen anyway when he's hanging out with the Orange Marine and Sniper.

Oh and "...poo poo" we need more B.

I'm going to go with (1b), I'm sure everyone else is preparing for the journey, we should too. As for the Captain we may have something else in our hold that will cheer him up.
