whoa.
edit: oh wait, ha ha. I get it. Mother's Day.
Neat, this should be interesting.
If I could draw, I would. I'll probably just do the calling thing.
This has probably been suggested but everyone with a Wii should go on the Everybody Votes Channel and swarm Nintendo with EarthBound polls.
I'm stoked. This is why our community is the greatest.
Well, in order for this to work, we need hundreds and hundreds of EB Fans working together. Shall we advertise this on GameFAQS Earthbound section?
I'm skeptical, as I've never seen Starmen.net at full swing...but it could happen. We could convince Nintendo to still support EarthBound if we can salvage every EB fan on the face of the planet. I would hate to see it die. With Mother 3 supposedly being the last, it looks as if it doesn't get better from here on out. Imagine having Earthbound on the Wii.
I have never seen a fanbase with so much passion, and I am awed at what this site has accomplished.
You guys don't seem to realize the possibility of a spiritual sequel. WIKI IT.
I'll definitely do some kind of drawing for this project. Let's hope for the best!
I sent the link to this thread to my best friend to let him know about this. One down, a million more fans to go! I'd like to try my hand at EB Propaganda even though I suck at digital art.
@ZeroHP:
EDIT: Advertising is considered spam in that subforum on Gaia. GameFaqs might have a similar rule there too.

Another petition couldn't hurt.
The petition that got the 30,000 signatures got the attention of the entire gaming world. This includes Earthbound fans who havent gotten into the Starmen community yet [including myself!] I think since then, more members have joined and the community has gotten stonger. I think another petition would be effective. If it's not, it couldn't hurt, and it's definitely worth a try.
If we use it too much, it'll just be a gimmick. "Oh, those earthbound guys are doing another petition? Eh, I signed the last one."
Unless the numbers are, like, 3 times bigger than the last petition, it wouldn't really make a splash. Last resort.
Thank you for taking the time to read this signature.

loves you.
We should have a slogan or something?
I am pumped, even with my zero to none art ability I'm still gonna try to get something in.

I…DROPPED THE SCREW…IN THE TUNA
I will defintely be assisting in some form.
I seriously love this community.

As I have no artistic ability whatsoever, I guess my station will be the PK Mail'n. And maybe the Propaganda, just because it sounds like fun. Lets get the EB love flowing!
I've not been on here in a long time and seeing this Siege is really awesome! You can most definitely count me in. I can draw, write and do a little interpretive dance-whatever it takes!
Letter art 1 down 200 more to go!!!!! I'm most likely going to buy a 100 pack or 200 pack of envelopes and ART on them alll!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH. My Funfest entry will pale in comparison to the sheer number of letters I turn out!

NOA told me my Animal Crossing playing cards are in the mail!!! Yaaaay
As strong as a petition may be, I agree that its impact may diminish if we make too many. I think artwork, videos, etc. would show a lot more effort, proving how devoted we are. Let's get some creative stuff going!
9-volt: Which Gaia group did you inform? I joined a Happy Happyist guild a while back, so I was thinking about spreading word through that.
I don't think that's too likely. NP is still selling well. I think...
Also, it wouldn't be discontinued, just changed a lot. Like E3.

i can't draw , but i know lots who can , they'll do there part by helping me with mine .somemone mentioned that Wii owners should bombared "everyone votes" with mother questions , i think it'd be best if we had a unified question for everyone to send in, everyone sending the same message , or atleast a choice from a few, more chance they'll actually put it up.
It's time for me to start drawing again.
I oppose the Vote Channel Bombardment. If the question actually got put up, it would overwhelmingly lose because (1) EarthBound has such limited distribution and (2) EarthBound is so obscure and (3) EarthBound doesn't exactly share the casual, vote-channel demographic.
It would backfire.
I occasionally drop EB references in my poll suggestions. The other day, my question was: "Peanuts... cashews... almonds... walnuts... giant pine nuts... which kind do you like?"
Answers: "Yes" "No"
I'm convinced that (a) I'll never get one of my polls posted and (b) some lucky NOCL employee looks forward to spotting my Wii serial identifier in the queue for my brilliant ideas.

Baseball sure is a funny game.
There's only one question I think would be acceptable for the Votes Channel:
Pop Quiz! Beatles Song: XXXterday.
> Yes
> No
Though the name conjures a negative conotation, a "viral" campaign may work to our favor. (ie, the poll question posted by llamapalooza)
Pk'callin, here I come.
why is life so unfair. Thy hatred is unjust, you jest? “why” “GNAUT” can i vote for all YE
My "good" art is few and far between, but I'll try something...

I'm going to do every step at least a few times. If I'm allowed to.
Crap, I have my Nintendo Power subscription paid up to 2010... I wasn't expecting them to stop making them.
Cool shirt, but i have a question... Does it say EB or E3 Sierge? It could work both ways so just wondering...
Shouldn't the link on the mainpage direct people to this thread instead of the ENV-ART thread? Or at least have the ENV-ART thread link back here?
GAH, why can't I pay for that with PayPal?!
Do you think that we could send in copies or pictures of works we have done in the past for this project? I say this because our past funfest brought out the best in a lot of the site's members and I think it would be nice to share all that hard work and creativity with more than just the EarthBound community. Perhaps it could be part of the propaganda phase.
Also, since NP doesn't have a very large(or existant) envelope art section anymore, are we looking to take over the Community section? I think we definitely have the potential. It would be amazing to see 2-3 pages full of Urfbowndalicious propaganda in one issue, and maybe we'd even get a small cover blurb.
On a more personal note, I'd really like to help out with my EB supremacy videos (maybe make an ultra-super-special-edition) however, I'm not sure how I would be able to incorporate them into the seige. When the time comes, do you think sending a CD/DVD containing the files in the mail would be an effecient method? We don't need to clog the topic with this issue though, so if you have time and you'd rather PM me or something to just let me know how I could best help out, that would be fine. My talents are at your service.
I registered for this.
Count me in. It's time to make some changes.
So yeah. Moving to Boston-area this weekend. Anyone want to pull a Moonintes with me when the propaganda phase comes up? j/k
I’m probably not the mrtenda you’re looking for
