Nekkid Conga Line:

The Right to Bare

Arms

By bored

Everyone at one point or another has seen a

nekkid Glitch. Some tolerate it, some love it,

some hate it, and a few are appalled by it.

However

on 8/4/11,this nekkid thing went too far. Several Glitchers

were seen parading nekkid through Plexus. A

few unfortunate passersby happened upon the

event. Some of the more like- minded tried to join,

while others ran away, including a dev.

While most of the offenders were nekkid, one

Glitcher, RainyRain, declined to fully undress (or

unfully dress) for the event. When asked as to

the reason why, she stated that her love for

Cosma superceded her love for nekkidness.

When asked for comment, stoot barfield simply

said " ... ignoring is sometimes the best

practice..."

Prisencolinensinainci

usol- A word to the

wiseBy Bored

7/29/11 wasa Glitching

day like any

other-

butterflies

were being

milked, trees

petted, projects being worked on. Everything seemed fine,

until a strange voice came over the music system. No

one knew what the voice was saying. it kept repeating

this word or phrase over and over again. One Glitcher

thought it was saying something about raising cows. I

thought it was a subliminal message to drink Pepsi.

The insanity went on for several minutes, confusing and

panicking some, while fascinating others. Eventually a

message from GOD came, stating that the word,

prisencolinensinainciusol, would go away if the game

was refreshed. So everyone did, and peace was

restored.

But what does that word mean? It's not in the dictionary

or in a foreign language. It's not a strange chemical

compound. Nor is it a brand of soft drink. No one seems

to know, or care, about its origin, but this reporter deems

to find out... one day.

Until then, I'll go back to chasing butterflies.

If you happen to want to relive the earache experience,

we can provide you with a link to the sound file. Listen to

it over, and over, and over, again, until you decide that

you had enough. Or, alternatively, until you cant take itanymore. Who knows, we might hold a

competition to see who can listen to the endless

repetition the longest.

Whats your take on prisencolinensinainciusol? Can you

read it backwards?

Losuicinia- I give up..

i Der Rook iz coming!

Or came, or will come.

By KitkatCat. Pictures by Cats1524 and Glitch Strategy wiki

After some in depth research about past Rook

Attacks, as well as screenshot submissions, I

found enough information to cover this page. But

first things first: What IS a Rook?

The Glitch Strategy wiki description of the Rook

is a collective noun referring to the evil, crow-like

creatures which exist on the same plane as theGiants and are constantly buzzing at them, dive-

bombing, attacking and trying to eat the Giants

imagination. The Rook is dark and opposes all

creativity. And they will try to attack the game

world, especially locations which are left a little

too neglected This is taken from the Glitchblog, and will pass as the Glitch devs definitions

of the Rook. Now, Rook attacks, I hear you ask?

Here as some pictures of the carnage..

The Problem withIx..By daniel5457

Recently a few glitches have had problems

loading Ix. I, daniel5457, also have a problemloading Ix. The flash player would always crash.

A few days ago I decided to say on the help chat

that I was still had problems with Ix. Araldia tried

helping me. But every time it didn't work. When

she tried summoning me into Ix I accepted but

nothing happened. "Congrats! I think you'rebroken!" said Araldia. We had had found a new

bug. The next day I tried going to Ix in IE. It

worked once (yay!) but the next time I tried I had

to reboot the computer.

Whats your take on it? Do you have the same

problems? Comment on our blog guestbook, or

our Forums thread!
