Zarcana Rules
(both as "rules for the game Zarcana" and as "Zarcana RULES!!!")
the board/card game Zarcana is maybe the most obscure shit I've ever played. my friend from middle school introduced it to me, from an out of print board game box found deep in the back of the sci library.
If you're familiar with Looney Pyramids (and the associated games such as Ice House, Martian Chess, Zendo, and Pyramid Arcade), this is one of thems.
It isn't sold. You can't buy it. You can get some Looney Pyramids, and if you have the pre-existing knowledge of how to play it you can get a tarot deck and do that. You can buy Gnostica, which is the more widely used adaptation of Zarcana. You could find Pyramid Arcade on eBay (it isn't in print anymore) or buy the pamphlet on looneylabs.com which includes Zark City, another adaptation, and recommends Gnostica on the back of the pamphlet. But to the free market, Zarcana does not exist.
It only exists in archives. Websites from 1999-2002.
I want to put all the information on Zarcana I can find online in one place, bc it's really hard to find a concrete set of rules online bc of how old it is, and it's really really fun.
Cheatsheet
Rules (it says you need to buy a special deck of zarcana cards but you do not, you just need a complete (78 cards) deck of tarot cards)
This lovely website that has links to articles about the development of Zarcana and Gnostica, as well as pdf printable stickers you can put on your cards so the rules are all on there.
If you don't have Looney Pyramids, I figured out how to macgyver it w coins of different sizes but it's v hard and complicated. will put under the cut.
so each person playing needs 5 small, 5 medium, and 5 large pyramids.
personally, I was able to replace them with 5 pennies, 5 nickels, and 5 dimes.
as a game piece, the things a pyramid needs to do are
be 3 different sizes (you can use 3 different denominations of coin)
be distinguishable b/w players (if it's just 2 of you, you can do heads & tails, if not you'll need either more denominations of coins or some way to mark coins as belonging to a certain person (nail polish, stickers, poster putty, beads, sticky notes?)
point in directions (instead, you can put the coin on the edge of the card that it's pointing to, or in the center for standing up straight. alternately, you could use the heads/whatever symbol on the coin to point to different directions and then due tails as standing straight up)
also here's the urls directly copy-pasted in case the links break or some shit
#original post#board games#looney pyramids#looney#icehouse#zarcana#gnostica#martian chess#pyramid arcade#looney labs#tarot#tarot cards#tarot deck#ik its bonkers but this game does use a tarot deck#imo half the fun is getting the coolest tarot deck you can find and then using it to build the board#(thats what you do)#its like a card game but you build the game board w cards and then have pieces on that board#its rly good#i wish i could play it more#rules

ILAN_PROFILE'S COMEDY / SLICE OF LIFE CARTOON GUIDE
Looking for Cartoons to Watch? Need a Guide for Animated Shows? Are you a Beginner or a Pro in watching TV shows? THIS ARE ALL THE COMEDY / SLICE OF LIFE CARTOONS I RECOMMEND!
About Each Section:
WATCH THIS: Shows I think are a MUST Watch for anybody getting into cartoons
NEW CARTOONS: Ongoing shows premiered in the past 2-3 years
STILL RELEVANT: Older shows / Already finished shows that still get a lot of attention nowdays
BONUS MENTIONS: Other Shows I havent watched that much of or arent as widely known as the others above
STORYDRIVEN: Fully serialized shows with lot of conitnuity
SEMI-EPISODIC: Shows with an ongoing story but also have self contained arcs
EPISODIC: Shows with minimal continuity, you can watch basically any episode
DISCLAIMER: I tried to limit myself to only 1-2 shows of each IP, UNLESS each of them feels too different from one or another (Like The Looney Tunes Show vs the classic Looney Tunes Cartoons) or you need to watch all shows together to get the full narrative (Ben 10 -> Alien Force -> Ultimate Alien -> Omniverse)
#Regular Show#Craig Of The Creek#Big City Greens#Bluey#Simpsons#Spongebob#Total Drama Island#Looney Tunes Show#Looney Tunes#Gumball#The Amazing World Of Gumball#We Bare Bears#Phineas & Ferb#Tom & Jerry#We Baby Bears#Ivandoe#Kiff#Hamster & Gretel#Tiny Toons#Patrick Star#Wander Over Yander#Villainous#Fairly Oddparents#The Loud House#Dexter's Lab#Uncle Grandpa#Clarence#Teen Titans Go!#Bojack#South Park

Generally I feel nothing and know nothing of contemporary baseball. However, nothing can compete with the bliss of seeing a fictional character in one of those funny, archaic-looking uniforms. Truly a strange and wonderful cultural object. "Baseball episode" is the best episode trope there is.
Feel free to add your own favorite examples of this. I love to see funny baseball.

Results day was yesterday, so might as well post my Final Major Project from my 2nd (and last) year of college. Finished editing it together on the 1st of May, started animating at some point in March. The brief was to make an animation in the Looney Tunes style to convince children to write on paper instead of typing. We had to do it in Photoshop (a lot of people did it in groups but I did this solo). Naturally, I made all of the characters birds.
Sound on if you want to hear the music I composed for it :)

What I envisioned for, and also what I really wanted to achieve for, my dream epic work on the Planet of the Toons...
Ladies and gentlemen, young and old, this may seem to be a very unusual procedure for me to say something to all of you this Sunday morning, but guess what?
I think I probably still am trying to continue writing, researching, and even developing ideas and concepts for either a great, big, vast, sweeping epic movie (whether animated, live action, or perhaps a seamless and epic blend and flawless integration of BOTH mediums), or especially a great, big, epic science fantasy book or novel about some 'Planet of the Toons' for maybe two full years so far or perhaps nearly twenty years so far...(and I really STILL am trying to continue!)
…mostly or perhaps sometimes in my head, maybe. (Although, I still won't share the end product with anybody on the internet, for I may actually plan for a big screen and IMAX theatrical release someday in the foreseeable future or something, and even though I do hope this epic work of mine will somehow get made one day in the foreseeable future, I still won't tell you or anyone else, especially both within or outside of the internet, EXACTLY when!)
And whether this sweeping epic story of the 'Planet of the 'Toons' that I'm still trying to write, research, develop, and even propose, especially for a theatrically released big screen live action and/or animation (both traditional style 2d hand drawn and occasionally 3d CG) hybrid epic movie or something could well be either my very last chance or perhaps even my very best chance to especially break out or hit it big as some kind of creative talent...
Either way, this 'Planet of the Toons' dream epic of mine could still be a perfect project for me, especially as someone who happened to be on the autism spectrum such as me, myself and I who is also into dinosaurs as well as into certain kinds and types of animated cartoon characters.
But I also really wanted to make my dream epic work a combination, or perhaps I wanted my dream epic to even be, some very unique cocktail mixture, if you will, of any or all of the following three types of stories:
1) An epic work of science fantasy or perhaps even some elements of that type of genre.
2) An epic, or perhaps quasi-autobiographical, sort of coming-of-age story, whether it's something like 1986's Stand By Me or something along the lines of 2004's Napoleon Dynamite (with the title character's famous climactic dance routine in front of the school auditorium audience), or perhaps even something along the lines of 2007's Superbad (but with ABSOLUTELY none of the raunchy R-rated gross out humor, and ABSOLUTELY very little of the R-rated profanity, of the latter work, begun as it was by its writers Seth Rogan and Evan Goldberg back when they were once actual teenagers!), or perhaps even some elements of that type of story:
And/or especially...
3) An epic and/or unique kind of 'Tolkien-esque, heroic, good vs. evil sort of quest-like journey to save the world from subsequent collapse at the very hands or very expense of the forces of evil' type of narrative or perhaps even some elements of that kind of narrative as well.
And all of that is going to be set within and even among a fantasy community (or especially a planet-wide sort of fantasy community) of living, breathing, sentient 2D hand drawn traditional-style animated ink and paint cartoon beings and creatures of all kinds and types of races and species (or perhaps the kind derived from actual Western or US American hand drawn traditional-style 2d animation art and media history, and most specifically of the older kinds, if really not Japanese anime or video game imports or more modern Western or even US American adult animation, mind you all)....which just happened to be visited by three brave human astronauts from far-off Earth (perhaps a young guy and girl plus a learned, wealthy if kindly scientist , plus the latter's pet monkey mascot)...in other words, the world of Ten'Jad, the eponymous 'Planet of the Toons' of the prospective title of my dream epic work.
And who knows? Maybe in addition to Dexter's Laboratory's Dexter and Mandark (the latter character being of Dexter's Laboratory's Ego Trip TV special infamy), or perhaps even the more famous Daffy Duck and Bugs Bunny of Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies fame, among all other kinds and types of hand drawn traditional-style 2d animated cartoon characters both old and new, preexisting and original, famous and obscure or perhaps even somewhere in between, what I really want the main, central, lead type of hand drawn traditional 2d animated cartoon figure and perhaps whoever will emerge as the ultimate hero of my dream epic work on the Planet of the Toons saga to be is not going to be another rascally cartoon rabbit figure along the lines of Roger Rabbit or even Bugs Bunny, mind you all...
Rather, what I really wanted the main, central, lead type of hand drawn traditional-style 2d animated cartoon figure and perhaps whoever will truly emerge as the ultimate hero of my dream epic work on the Planet of the Toons saga to be is very well going to be a cute, heroic mouse or two, especially a very cute, heroic pair of cartoon mice along the lines of Tanya Mousekewitz and her world-famous brother Fievel Mousekewitz of both An American Tail and An American Tail: Fievel Goes West fame:
Well, what do you think of all of that, everyone?

Yesterday I realized how much I miss certain aspects of my past career and, though I don't think I actually want to come back, I would kind of want to work there again (and to put a label on it. Or to have a little funny drawing like this one on the lab door)
#looney tunes#lab-els#(it's absolutely not funny but it's amusing to me)#to come back would be a controversial move anyway
