  6. Cheater said about 1 hour later:

    Okay, we have to improvise?

    I think policedanceclub is pretty suspicious.

  7. BaronCid said about 1 hour later:

    I know why Panda is sad.

    Panda has to make love. Sweet love that is.

    Happybara sends his love

  9. X-Tender said about 1 hour later:

    Maybe Panda wants a Monocle?!

  10. rowr said about 1 hour later:

    sounds like Panda wants less viruses in his forums!

  11. Nikica said about 1 hour later:

    OMG, he is soooooo cute !!! How to help the little panda?

    @ECLIPSE: you just won my love Eclipse. KLYTUS I’M BORED

  15. Krux said about 2 hours later:

    IT nerds just have nothing to do, this is the proof.

  16. Saint said about 2 hours later:

    @Krux: well, duh, the forums are down.

  17. Don Andy said about 3 hours later:

    Having nothing to do is actually what I get paid for at work.

  18. Melly said about 3 hours later:

    I am a werewolf.

  19. guesst said about 3 hours later:

    What is love beer?

    On second thought I don’t want to know.

    Well, if the forums are down for everyone at least there won’t be eleventeen pages of new posts to sort through. (Backwards, because the New Posts option drops posts off the list when you open them up in a new window, so the list becomes shorter, so you miss some if you go forward. I was going to complain about that, but now that the whole thing’s busted I’m gonna say there are higher priorities on the IT Nob’s minds.)

  20. Pacian said about 3 hours later:

    I think the panda did it. Otherwise, why is he dressed like a burglar?!

  21. Nikica said about 3 hours later:

    Don Andy you too? :P

  22. GeneralValter said about 3 hours later:

    I vote Melly. Wait, he’s moderator! Cheater. I mean, he’s cheating. I’m not voting for cheater.

    ahem. That virus made me realize just hoe much time I spend here <_<

  23. Cheater said about 3 hours later:

    Delicious manlove for pandas.

  25. cyber95 said about 4 hours later:

    I’ve noticed the forums are down for about 5 minutes now and I’m already panicked.

    We need like, a backup forums somewhere else for these occasions.

  26. bateleur said about 4 hours later:

    Wait, the virus-on-forums thing wasn’t a joke?! How can a forum get virussed?

    I send love to the panda. Sick pandas do not need beer. Beer would be unwise.

  27. Imaginationac said about 4 hours later:

    AGAIN! Also, panda’s ultra-cuteness is too much.

  28. Robert said about 4 hours later:

    More empathy for Sick Panda

  29. Medieval said about 4 hours later:

    Smithy did the virus.

    Trust me, he did.

  30. cyber95 said about 4 hours later:

    I knew his amazing life was all a sham! A sham to cover up his true intentions to destroy us all!

  31. PenguinSeph said about 5 hours later:

    I’m going for Ikaruga.

  32. fartron said about 5 hours later:

    Love beer is a dirty, dirty phrase.

    I think the panda just misses Tamer. As do we all.

  33. GeneralValter said about 5 hours later:

    What? I love beer. It’s not too weird.

  34. slick said about 6 hours later:

    Oh God I feel the Indiegamer forums are gonna get raped tonight.

  35. Appa said about 6 hours later:

    Way to get us all excited about a compo and then take away our ability to discuss it!

    Thanks panda!

    I always knew that you wrote malicious viruses during your breaks from eating, sleeping, and pooping, but I never though it would affect me… How could I have been so naive…?

  36. Dusty Spur said about 7 hours later:

    did you try feedig him corn chipps>?

  37. Cheater said about 7 hours later:

    I agree with fartron:

    SUMMON TAMER!

  39. Smithy said about 7 hours later:

    Smithy is innocent! I have an alibi! I was in a flying saucer at the time!

    (For more information on Smithy’s innocence, visit www.downloadviruses.com)

  40. Zer0strich said about 8 hours later:

    A flying saucer with all the mechanical complexity of a teapot???

  41. Caliber 9 said about 8 hours later:

    Don’t you see what has happened you fools…? We have made Tamer angry! Well probably have to sacrifice someone to appease him. I vote smithy …

  48. Moon Goon said about 11 hours later:

    I’m nes so I don’t get the sick panda reference. Maybe the OP is poking fun at the fact the Forum is down?

  50. Valkyrie said about 11 hours later:

    Losing the forums has driven everyone mad.

  51. chutup said about 11 hours later:

    Indie Brawl: Catmario

    Catmario is a fairly light character with many tricks up his sleeve.

    A: Scratches with his sharp cat claws. A>: Leaps forward and scratches A^: Kicks upward Adown: bites low to the ground S: Turns into giant muscle cat and drops on the enemy for massive damage. The downside is that if you don’t cancel out of it quickly you fall through the ground and die. S^: Places an invisible coinblock below himself and bounces off it. The coinblock sticks around and damages enemies who hit their heads on it. S>: Throws a sunglasses star that bounces along and damages enemies. Sdown: Lays a barely-visible spike trap on the ground which will activate if any player walks over it.

    Sorry, couldn’t resist.

  52. Golds said about 11 hours later:

    I think that it’s a sad testament to the security of Windows XP/Internet explorer that you can contract a virus by simply visiting a site on the web.

    Now, I will withdraw to my ivory tower of OS X… where there are no indie games :(

  53. Farbs said about 12 hours later:

    Is this an XP/IE only bug? Am I safe if I’ve only used Firefocks? Is my vista box safe?

  54. Frosty said about 12 hours later:

    I’ll pray for you Pandy Panda!

    Satan is my God, also!

  55. agh said about 14 hours later:

    I use Firefox3 and the Noscript-addon. And Noscript blocked this virus even before my antivirus software had to handle with it. So I think Firefox is safer.

  56. Gainsworthy said about 15 hours later:

    Keeping the Cinco De Mayo Comicompo aliiiive! Sing it with me. (Seriously folks, who’s got that thing now?)

    P.S. does this mean we get extensions on our demakes?

    P.P.S. I agree. Policedanceclub IS suspicious. REFUTE.

  57. Gainsworthy said about 15 hours later:

    Oh, also, I need thems forums bad. Power to The Progium. YOU CAN DO IT!

  58. nayon said about 15 hours later:

    yeah I need the forums too :( for the compo

  59. Melly said about 16 hours later:

    I need it.

    I just do.

  60. TeeGee said about 16 hours later:

    C’mon, little panda, you must eat if you want to be stronger. Please, eat. EAT! EAT YOU MOTHERFUCKER!

  61. policedanceclub said about 16 hours later:

    MUUUUUF.

    also, why does everyone suspect me?

  62. Fish said about 16 hours later:

    What.

  63. Sergio said about 16 hours later:

    This is going to be deleted, isn’t it

  64. Flamebait said about 17 hours later:

    Can the TIGSource bigwigs at least post the bootleg demake competition rules somewhere else? I get the essence of the compo, but there are some points I can’t recall.

  65. GirlFlash said about 17 hours later:

    are you guys serious about the virus infecting through a website?

    if so that’s a pretty high class virus, we should consider it a compliment :D

    also the reason the panda is sad is that its not fucking, what it needs is some Barry White!

  66. increpare said about 17 hours later:

    Maaaaan I miss you guys. MISS YOU GUYS.

    Hope panda gets better soooooooooooon.

  67. Noyb said about 18 hours later:

    No forums and no demake updates make Noyb something something. Go crazy? Don’t mind if I do!

  71. GeneralValter said about 19 hours later:

    Christ. It’s been like 24 hours! Now is when we begin to lose all resemblance of reason or logical thought. It can only go downhill from here.

  72. Caliber9 said about 19 hours later:

    I’m starting to think this has nothing to do with a panda. In fact I was doing some research and it seems that websites have no correlation with pandas. Who would have guessed?

  73. Eclipse said about 19 hours later:

    @slick: oh yeah, in that movie Ornella Muti was hot! You need to watch the italian version of the movie, with her real voice acting: “Klytus, sono annoiata” :D

  74. Eclipse said about 20 hours later:

    also, i like how a post about a sad panda can top the record of comments and totally destroy the average of 20-30 posts on news related to indie gaming xD

    Haven’t read so many comments since that infamous “the underside” first trailer news.

  75. Don Andy said about 20 hours later:

    There is no virus! They just took the forums down so the blog gets more love!

  76. god said about 20 hours later:

    I hope he dies of Aids.

    (I hate Pandas.. )

  77. god said about 20 hours later:

    On the side note, at least now you don’t have that last haunting pic up on the front anymore. Congrats.. censorSource.

  78. corpus said about 21 hours later:

    I agree that Smithy was behind this. I bet he snuck the virus in in his massive logger’s beard.

  79. renkin said about 21 hours later:

    This game sucks.

  80. Drakkar said about 22 hours later:

    BARRY WHITE IS PEOPLES, PEOPLES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  81. GeneralValter said about 23 hours later:

    Eclipse: We’re just posting here because the forums are down.

    Derek, make a Werewolf game VIII post on the blog so that we can continue from there!

  82. slick said about 23 hours later:

    HEY GUYS, THE FORUMS ARE BACK UP!

  83. slick said about 23 hours later:

    Ornella mutti is so hot in that movie, she said this sentence with the voice of Max von Sydow huh!

  84. skaldicpoet9 said about 23 hours later:

    Maybe the server isn’t Y2K8 compatible. Massive meltdown and the eradication of humanity ensues. The prophecies have already foretold: “when the mighty tiger shall fail to rise from his deep slumber the Earth will tremble and the sky shall be torn apart to make way for the coming darkness.”

    Now look at what you guys started.

  85. Cheater said about 23 hours later:

    @slick:

    You lied to me.

  86. moi said about 23 hours later:

    JUST when I’m about to break the 1000 posts the forums “get a virus” huh?

    I ACCUSE the bigwigs of TIGsource of trying to keep the little guy down. You guys suck. DOWN WITH THE BIGWIGS.

    Derek, you should update the Bootleg Demake post in here with all the rules while the forums are like this, or give a few days extension to the deadline later.

    Doom is upon us if this keeps up. We’ll be doomed. Digipen style.

  94. muku said 1 day later:

    Rumor has it that the forum would be under audit. Because derek Yu wants to sell out to IGN.

    Rumor has it that EA is buying the forums for 500 million dollars, and plans to release them as a Wiiware party game.

  111. andy said 1 day later:

    i blame gigglesworth. he saw the awesomeness at the tigsource draws robots thread and was jealous of their silly ‘top-fezzez’ and such, so he blew up the internets, a little. maybe.

    that gigglesworth is always up to no good, but i never thought he would make a sick panda. what an ungentlemanly thing to do for a gentleman like himself.

  112. skaldicpoet9 said 1 day later:

    I heard they found some humans alive in australia. But hismight just be another rumor.
