I think the Brr pad-like things in the water on the loading picture are like vanishing ice or something. (Well, the caption does say vanishing trails)

There are a few explosion-like things on the left part of the screen. Maybe they have something to do with indigo?

Might have been from the last page, but on the topic of Editor glitches, I just remembered two small visual glitches in the Player.

One - Sometimes (I'm not sure what causes this), when walking North, the player character will have a bit of a choppy animation - they'll sort of... "turn" east slightly and turn back as they head north. It's hard to explain, and it's only a minor thing (and random, it seems), but when you're looking for it it's quite easy to spot.

Two - I'm not sure if this is related, but sometimes when facing north the player's shadow seems off-centered. I'm not sure if this applies to NPC Stinkers or just the player, but I noticed it on the player. Image attached.

That update pic is cool. 8)

But we still can't be 100% that the funnel is the result of indigo magic at work, and even if it is, we don't know what entering it will do or if the magic has different effects on water or ice, like Grow magic does. :wink:

Those are most definitely regular Brr floats...doesn't explain the black buttons, though. Are they just pressed, or...? :?

I like speculating. :lol:

Looks like they've been pressed to me.

I'm not going to lie, I actually liked the Classic Wonderland darker-color-when-pushed buttons as opposed to black-when-pushed.

Those blue floats ar not normal ones to me, it may be from indigo magic or effect thingies (i.e. when a turtle falls in water)

"Most definitely"? There's no proof either way except for the fact that they're faded somewhat, and that's just (possible, but everything is speculation) proof that they AREN'T regular.

They only looks like several shades because of the lighting and how the water turbulence is covering some of them. They could be made by Indigo magic perchance, but that doesn't seem very likely... :|

No, not really. They might be normal since there is Brr in the background though.

Those black buttons are definitely just pressed ones. As for the ice floats, I'm just going to assume they're normal.

If MS is reading this, I'd like to ask you a question: Will our WA custom adventures be able to be converted to the POTZ editor (assuming we remove Homing Missiles and other player-made WOPs)?

I know it's probably waaay too early for this, but it would be interesting if there was an option to pre-order this.. :P

Also, Patrick, this isn't related to WA3 but I noticed that on the Frazzled highscores page the images for your site aren't quite working (and the links where the images would normally be aren't either):

Those seem to be button-command activated brr floats, or brr bridges?

Okay... emergency like what? (just curious) Ah, yes, and could you please check your messages in the forum? I send you a private message one month ago. :)
Hope this emergency goes well anyway! Don't hurry to check my message. Take your time :D
