Title: I'm the latest new guy.
Post by: Dogman15 on September 22, 2010, 12:59:16 AM
I got a late start on the books as a kid, and my local school and city libraries never seemed to have enough of the books to read, but I think I've read all of them except The Andalite Chronicles and The Ellimist Chronicles. I think Animorphs would work better as a TV miniseries (like "Band of Brothers") rather than a feature film. Or an animated TV series. Or a series of feature films like they did with Harry Potter.

I should probably take those points of discussion to another board.

Hey Dogman ^_^ Welcome to our little bone-chillingly-awesome corner of the internet! Hopefully I'll see more of you around- I'd love to discuss the possibility of an Animorphs miniseries with you, among other things. If you just explore the forum, you'll find plenty of interesting stuff.

Welcome to RAF!

Oh, patric, Vickie, you guys are awesome. You've both been here such a short time, and you're already beating me to the punch on greeting new members :D

wHELLcome, Dogman!
I'm Vis... I'm Dameg, another RAFian. Come with me, please, I have something to show you. It's here, after this door *Open a heavy door* We call them the RAFprojects. *Lead Dogman to a long and dark hallway, with many doors, some in the dark, some with light coming from the other side. Arrive near the first door* Here at your left...

- RAFipedia: http://rafipedia.wetpaint.com/ (http://rafipedia.wetpaint.com/), an encyclopedia headed up by Estelore, our star (a true star, who make light and burn in space... but she has a body to come on Earth);

Next door is for the special project:

- http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,3738.0.html (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,3738.0.html): the adventures of the RAFians;

- the paper-RPG project: a role-playing game (on table, with paper, pen and dices...) about the World of Animorphs; I head this project, and it'll be write in French at the beginning, but we need help to find, class and write everything we know about the species, the planets, the powers we see in Animorphs, fix them, see what we keep and what we can't keep (because of the KASU, not clear, exception for the main characters/books, etc.), complete the knowledges about species/planets we know and even create new species/planets...; this project will be on my own website, so if you wanna join, ask me the link ^^;

*Standing in front of Dogman* I hope you enjoyed your visit. Oh, and I also invite you to add your species on this list: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,2154.0.html (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,2154.0.html) 'coz everybody isn't Human here.

We also opened a http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php?board=36.0 (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php?board=36.0) to teach to each others our languages and other stuffs.

Now I have to go, I don't invite you for the meal, sorry. *Beginning to go down dark stairs. Dogman can hear a cry coming from the cave.*
Have fun!
*Dameg disappears into the darkness, Dogman is now alone in the hallway*

In reply to everyone, specifically Dameg;

Thank you for the warm welcomes. I will definitely check out all those links. If you're reading this, would you please go check out the Animorphs character articles on Wikipedia? I added and beefed up infoboxes for each one of them, usually adding pictures.

I also think there should be more sources for the Animorphs re-release next year (the lenticular covers one), so that it can be well-documented on Wikipedia and stuff.
