Thursday, April 24, 2008Comic Controversy>Date: 24 Apr 2008 13:46:48 -0400 Might I add (4) a terrible cartoonist. We'll link to the cartoon once it's put online. P.S. The Daily D isn't going to put the cartoon online, so we have pictures here. Posted by A.S. Erickson at 2:31 PM Comments This post has been removed by the author. Posted by I sense Rally Against Hate part II may already be in the works. Posted by Will, you're probably right, but regardless of how ridiculous the campus reaction to the comic is, I think we can pretty much all agree that the cartoon itself WAS cheap and immature. Posted by Oh no question. My roommate (who is Asian) and I have been in hysterics at how many blatantly offensive things got crammed into one strip. It's a remarkable feat that such a thing got by the D's editorial board. Posted by 1. If it did get censored by the D's editorial board, you would be complaining about the lack of free speech. Posted by What's different about this is that it is a direct personal attack on one person, identified by name. Calling an individual student a "hooker"? Forget college discipline, it's time for a slander suit. Posted by @ anon 9:11 Posted by Slander? It was in a cartoon. Posted by I've heard both authors of the comic currently members of the Phrygian Society? This may or may not be true. Posted by Re: Anon 9:11 Posted by The comic reached me via email, and I must say, it is blatantly racist and offensive. It directly attacks a particular individual on the basis of her race and gender. It's disgusting. Posted by Concocted, but by whom? Posted by For those of you who think that a comic is just a comic, Black's Law Dictionary defines slander as a "defamatory assertion expressed in a transitory form, esp. speech..." That comic was a form of speech and it was most definitely defamatory. The cartoonist's suggestion that he is asserting his anti-board packing sentiments is really just a thinly veiled racist attack on a student who had an equal right to support the Dartmouth Board. However, her support took the form of a petition rather than an offensive, immature, and inappropriate cartoon. Can anyone expect the quality of the reactions to such a cartoon to be much better than what the cartoon deserved?

There is some great work in there, great work. The art is fantastic...the levels in that game are huge. The free running things works really well and feels wow power leveling great to control, though after awhile the joy and awe kind of wares off. I hated the story...the whole setting kind of frustrated me. I was so completely looking forward to playing as an assassin during the Crusades. When I first heard the wow powerleveling concept for the game and awe the screenshots I was pretty jazzed. That excitement was quickly smothered when I found out I was a descendant of Altair and I was in a simulation. Great...a game within a game. That really kind of spoiled the whole thing for me. I played about halfway through the game before I completely stopped. I think the wow gold sequel that is inevitably going to get made will be pretty good...though I think they have kind f locked themselves into the whole genetic memory story thread. There is some really great stuff in that game, but the story, and combat really kind of killed it for me. The combat is still not that great of an improvement over the POP stuff. It is decent, but it feels like it could be so much better if they would just give the player more control over the character.
