So, I write the script for Probert III. I haven't had time to actually map it. Anyway, I wrote this script relatively far back, in July. So, there's a section where Probert does the Peanut Butter Jelly dance. Guess what Family Guy does in one of their episodes after I write the script. The same damn thing. Son of a censored.gif .

Lolz. That's a horrible coincidence, but I don't watch family guy much anyway, so I'd say keep it in the script.

Family Guy pwned Mooses mind.

OMG! THEY ARE THE THOUGHT POLICE.

It's okay, keep it. I haven't watched TV for four years and don't plan on doing so anytime soon.

Hmm, Mini, can you just video record your map than us viewing it on StarCraft?

If it records 30 seconds, record again and such. I can do Windows Movie Maker part. Just imagine, me adding a old album style in your movie. You can accept this offer if you want, because my StarCraft is missing and my Broodwar is broken. cry.gif

Yah, your name will be forever ruined if you release that map (jk)
You can put in briefing that you came up with this stuff before, then sold it to the makers of family guy, but they didn't give you any money.

Yeah and those other jokes you stole, completely unaware, you obviously wrote the script a full 10 years before those jokes were ever made!

You shouldn't steal ideas, you should come up with your own ideas, which is very simple.

Dang... that's almost as bad as the time Futurama stole the whole "Battle.net Experience" skit in one of their episodes.

And yet...My idea for Probe and Proberer: When Probert meets Bob is ignored

Wait, What? I think it's vise versa, Battle.net Experience stole Futurama's ideas.

You should write the date that you wrote the script in a briefing that you put in there for that purpose. Or you could put it with the credits. If you have any (you should have all SENers for being awesome in the credits biggrin.gif )

I don't associate that joke with Family Guy. Most other people familiar with it won't either. Technically, there is no such thing as a truly original idea. Besides, doesn't your story make fun of stereotypes anyways? Like the generic evil emperor? No matter what you do, there are bound to be unintentional coincidences. In film school, I wrote a story named "Windigo" about that monster from Indian folklore, only to discover a movie about the same thing was in prodution. Completely unintentional.

Good luck with it.

I've known the story of the wendigo, and it is monster in foklore. (I think from canada, maybe someplace else) Weird.
