come on, usa probably spend days of hard work to make this rom and you complain about pushing the pause button now and then.
You ignore the fact that I'm sacrificing the lining of my intestines for the entertainment of the forumers.
Alright, guys...I have truly put my willpower (and my organs) to the test for your votes. I have eaten...an onion. Dipped in mayo. With lemon juice squirted on top. Also, there's a little extra surprise towards the end. Also, turn your volume down for the last video, I couldn't control my volume.

You're fucking crazy, Cam. Hilarious. Thanks for the loud burp on vid 1....I almost puked.
I think there's only one thing left to eat as a grand finale.
Rabbit really isn't that good. It's too gamy and not enough meat. Give me venison over any other small critter, those poor things don't hurt anyone.
Deer on the other hand, is delicious. I used to be a staunch anti hunting advocate but seriously...as many deer related accidents and fatalities on the roads, if we DIDN'T have hunting season around here it would be out of fucking control.

We began working on this rom hack in the second week of June. I have definitely poured 200+ hours into this beast.
By the way, I'm a musician as well. I wish I had a keyboard and a camera, but I neither at the time, so here are a few pics and a video:
Keys:
Drums:
Guitar:
I play bass too, but I haven't played bass in a band since late high school and I don't have any pictures.
Here's a video of a Zelda cover a band of mine did. It goes into one of our original songs. I'll be the frst to say that the cover is simplistic and not greatly performed. I taught them how to play it only a few hours before that show:
Also, although seasonally inappropriate, I'd like to present the UB Christmas video. I wrote, played, and recorded all the music, as well as providing the voice for the bridge and harmonies:
RIP Hacker.

I'd be anti-hunting but I'm too lazy to support my arguments. And I love meat.
https://discord.gg/homestuck is where you can find me literally 99% of the time. Stop on by if you feel like it, we're a nice crowd.

You guys want music, public humiliation, and things that will make you puke?
Well, we're multi-talented forumers. I can do that too.
Yes, that's me singing. Yes, that's me unable to keep from laughing at the end.
And if you want more, you should know I have several more terrible songs. There's even a Brittney Spears one...
a friend of mine ate oatmeal with milk honey and beer. a lemon, even with its peel on it can not impress me.
I can't vouch for the beer part, but oatmeal with milk and honey sounds delightful.

Damn Cam, that's some hardcore stuff! Not even Syd has vomited for this site so major props there. By the way, who was that annoying person behind you with the wire? And why didn't you punch them?
That was my friend Jasmine, attending the Lemon Incident for moral support. She has this thing about clothes hangers, in which she likes to steal mine and bend them and poke people with them.

Anyways, while doing some research, I managed to dig up some of our opponent's campaign stuff before they decided on self-humiliation:
...really, do you want to vote for people who came up with that?
I have no qualms with this. Who doesn't love kittens?

This. Hardest one so far. So my thought is, if I vote for Usa and Ry, you guys have already used your biggest punch. An extremely awesome Forum Based Rom.
I think thats the pinnacle of your campaigning, and in future battles we won't see anything top that. Where as Cam can continue to eat disgusting things for my entertainment, and graduate to more disgusting things.
It was a very tough Decision. But in the End, Cam and Lem have my vote.

Yea, good vote choice, because it takes so much effort to eat random shit.
As a fat man, I can't tell you that it's simply not true. People who eat random shit are a dime a dozen.
What are you more likely to remember a year from now? Someone eating a lemon with a rind (which is actually easier than eating just a lemon in my opinion, I ate lemons whenever I could as a child)
- OR -
This ROM for the forum, which obviously isn't the best hack in the world, but this which is the product of Usa and I pouring our souls into it. We've already spent more time on this than anyone else will spend on their entire campaigns. I'm not saying you should vote based purely on effort, I just hope it's realistically being considered.
RIP Hacker.

You are aware that, the further we got, the more complete the rom gets, correct?

No, I was unaware of that, and I assumed if you chalk up a win or loss, either way the Forum ROM would be completed. I couldn't see you guys getting halfway through and saying "fuck it".

One more vote for the Forumers of Light and this battle will be moot as well, since both teams will be guaranteed to move on into round 2.

Haha. You don't know me too well. I mean, if we're 60-70% through it, we'll finish it, but if we get knocked out in the next round, there's no way it's going to happen. I have too many other things going on, although if worse comes to worst, I suppose we could just slap an ending on. It would be uncouth to leave it completely unresolved.
RIP Hacker.

Well, it's a day lat and about $3.50 short, but the next part of the hack is having the finishing touches put on now. So it will be released this afternoon.
Here are the latest changes:
------------------------------------
Hack completed up to the canal. End Demo cave moved to reflect this.
New Marsh Cave, brand new bosses in the Cave and in the Northwest Castle.
Some weapons depowered a bit, the HareBite in particular.
Shok and Burn changed, Shok is now a single target spell, Burn hits all enemies.
------------------------------------
Also, I want to note that we haven't tested the power of the Level 4 spells, so have fun with that. If there are any comments or concerns, feel free to let either UsaSatsui or myself know!
