The Seeds of Doom edition. Another rather highly rated one. Did you enjoy it?
Last thread (there's a really interesting discussion in there): >>69007796
>>69027441
>>69027449
The interesting thing about the time between Survival and Rose is that the book series of that period of Seven and Eight ended up seeming to be quite similar to some of the themes of Rose. Sam Jones is like a proto-Rose, written by people who haven't quite figured it out. Basically, the books are what 90s Who would have looked like, without budget constraints (space marines, blood and sex,etc), just like Survival is very 80s, and Rose is rther noughties.
I actually gained a lot of respect for Melanon after that last thread. He was treating people with a lot more respect than usual even when he disagreed and didn't play the victim even after being shitposting at.
>>69027715
Did he confirm he was Melanon?
>>69027441
Boring. Stopped watching it after part one.
Can Black Pertwee be a /who/ meme ?
>>69027743
Yep. >>69026738
>>69027399
Ah! Yes, you didn't want to speak too soon.
>>69027862
Wow! I recognized his or her style of writing.
>>69027837
We might have 13 meme cosplay doctors by now - French Hartnell, yours, Jon Blum as Seven, the obvious cosplayanon... any others?
Reminder that the Tennant Golden Age is coming back this month.
>new Tenth Doctor novel from BBC Books being published
>Tenth Doctor range from Big Finish starting
>Tenth Doctor comics series from Titan still going strong
I for one welcome the return of our lord and saviour, the Teninch.
>>69027934
However, if I'm remembering correctly that means he was talking about the 90s when he bragged about being a classic fan from 'way back'. Jesus Christ, be more pretentious.
>>69027658
That's interesting. I haven't read many of the books.
Giordano Bruno episode when?
What historical figure(s) would you like to see?
>>69028042
they should've cancelled the show when he left, there's no way their ever going to top him. Every Doctor after him is poundland quality,
melanon confirmed as autistic
>>69028247
>>69028223
This.
>>69028247
I used to think so, but he (?) seemed better this time so idk
>>69028205
The Ribos Operation had alien Bruno.
>>69028285
seemed fully autistic and literal to me
>>69028047
Would an old school fan from back in the day use phrases like 'from way back' or 'from back in the day', though? I was being slightly tongue-in-cheek there, but I was being accused of not knowing what I was talking about.
Reminder that Melanon and That's Gareth! will be two of the contestants in the final of the /who/nger games, and either of them could become champion of /who/.
http://doctorwhogeneral.wikia.com/wiki/The_/who/nger_Games
We just need one last game before the final.
>>69028486
THAT'S GARETH! TO PHUCKING WIN!!!!
>>69028283
I was mostly joking,
what I meant is that RTD took the 10th Doctor and used the character to have these emotional stories.
when we get to the 11th and 12th Doctors they have similar moments, they get sad, they get angry but it doesn't have the same impact.
They don't actually need to cancel it but I'm not sure what else the could do for future Doctors.
perhaps introduce Braxiatel form the book and we could have some brotherly dynamics?
But being a fan since the 90s doesn't establish any credibility and more than having seen all of Hartnell last year. Also yes, that does sound like something a 60 year old posting on 4chan would say.
>>69028205
The green children of Woolpit was an interesting idea floated as the 'British legend' that the Stephen Fry-written episode was going to be based on.
>>69028319
...can't believe I never noticed Binro = Bruno before. And everyone says he's supposed to be Galileo... still, the real guy could make a nice Vincent-And-the-Doctor type episode, and you get Elizabeth I + Francis Walsingham to boot.
>>69028282
Why the dirty rotten scoundrel references in my /who/? Did you stab yourself in the eye again with the fork?
>>69028285
Abilify is a hell of a drug.
>>69028486
Can't hardly wait.
>>69028551
Probably less so as the lens of time tends to distort things with a nostalgic bend.
>>69028486
Oh, and fun fact: despite /who/'s best efforts, not a single version of Capaldi or Capaldi-related meme made it to the final so far. Same goes for Clala.
I'm sorry, /who/.
>>69028621
Hm , that might still happen if Fry is one of the "mind-blowing names" Moffat teased.
>>69028551
Do you not think someone who persisted with the show for over a decade, when it was out of production and before it had any kind of cool status, might in that time have gained some knowledge of what they were talking about? Don't you think becoming interested in the show when it was already consigned to history might be an interesting perspective?
>>69028205
Tsar Peter the Great. He was an euphoric fratboy before any of this was a thing.
>>69028669
Did Toddlercakes ever win?
Should we have another /who/nger games now?
That's Gareth!
>>69028661
By that logic, a fan from when the show was still on would have even less to say to you.
So, to recap: mentioning that the sci-fi stories were as much part of the educational remit as the historicals when another anon had overlooked that is now a sign of schizophrenia.
>>69028669
Zygon Cocks won though.
>>69028777
>Did Toddlercakes ever win?
Nope.
Should we have another /who/nger games now?
Sure, if somebody is willing to hst it. Unfortunately, I don't know how to do it.
>>69028844
True, I suppose that's Capaldi-related, being from his era.
>>69028661
Cloister is reeeing
>>69028223
What? Have you seen Pandorica Opens/Big Bang, or Zygon Inversion/ Heaven Sent? Phuck off Tennant tumblr phag.
I liked Tennant too by the way, but both Doctors after him have been just as good.
>>69028805
"first years of its run, what was wanted was a slow educational amble"
Reminder that this is shite.
>>69028695
No.
>>69027837
Hell to the yes. If any dr should be a black guy it should be Pertwee. He the pimpinest dr who.
>>69028805
I should amend my statement I suppose. That one opinion is no more valid than the other. Personally I'd probably discount the person that's been a "fan" since the original aired because they probably wrapped themselves in the minutia of the past and have spent years explaining their and sorting headcanon to themselves. It's utterly discriminatory, and it saves me from drowning in the same minutia.
Assuming you're tacking on the schizophrenia diagnosis because of the abilify crack above,Melanon seems less tenacious and well sperg-ish today, abilify will do that. I know it will makes me much less the pitbull and to have a more even keel when it comes to discussions
>>69029101
Wonder if the anon repeatedly hitting his head against this wall is the one claiming to find me 'autistic'?

Find me any evidence that a "slow educational amble" is in any way factual.
You are refusing to address this because you know you are fucking idiot and you cannot back this rubbish up.
>>69028947

Just go here. Click on "Edit Cast", and paste the URLs of the memes that are posted into both the "Image URL" field. Place the name into both the name and nickname field. Also, be careful about the gender option, or there will be a lot of genderfluid geniuses.
Do not click proceed yet.
Then, click "Modify events" on the left sidebar.Add events in the (Player1) does such-and-such to (Player2) and (Player3). Or (Player1) is eaten by a rabid Zygon.
Make sure you do it exactly like (Player#). Any extra spaces throws it off. Once you do that, make sure that you'll define who kills whom, and who dies. (Events with no death are fine, but having a good mixture of deadly and non-deadly events are the best for keeping the game moving fast.)
And if you mess up, it's cool. Some of the funniest moments come from accidental mistakes.
>>69029212
>hell to the yes
did you learn nigerian by watching scrubs?
>>69029223
All I was using my years as a fan to do was suggest that I probably had a good grasp of the stuff I was describing. I agree the years served=authority stuff of old fans is nonsense.
As we're talking in real terms, I can only tell you that I've not been diagnosed with any autistic spectrum condition, or prescribed any neurophysiological medication. I'm not generally someone who can be bothered with argument. I've pursued it here only usually because it seems like no actual argument is coming back, and it's easy and relatively fun. Ideally, I'd prefer the kind of discussion we've got going on here.
Reminder the original production team wanted to avoid teaching small kids false facts about history or science.
This was dropped in under 14 months.
Thats not the same as "first years of its run, what was wanted was a slow educational amble" whch goes entirely against the 'intelligent adventure' serial that Newman, Lambert etc were aiming for.
>>69029594
This desu, the educational element always seemed token at best.
>>69029371
Educational content was always part of historicals and futuristic stories alike, and that's demonstrable by reference to the episodes. 'Slow' and 'amble' because the stories are long and unhurried. How often do you watch stories from season one? The Daleks is as long as The Godfather!
>>69029681
Thank you.
>>69029702
>what was wanted
You have no argument. You are literally a trolling prick.
>>69029702
>"first years of its run, what was wanted was a slow educational amble"
Still complete bollocks no matter how much you faff about, flapping and lying.
>>69029594
> 14 months
> first years
So what's bothering you is a difference of ten months? No, it's perfectly possible for an intelligent adventure serial to be slow and ambling.
>>69029506
Wew lad, thanks for taking the time to type that. But I also don't have the time to host a game right now, and I'm currently posting from my phone.
I'll see if I can do it sometime in the future.
>>69029744
>>69029784
You're just being hysterical. 'What was wanted' conveys exactly what happened - the show was commissioned on the basis that it would include an educational element.
>>69029790
You're a fucking retard mate.
"first years of its run, what was wanted was a slow educational amble"
What you said is crap.
>>69029546
I'd agree cordial is better than not. I don't mean to psycologize ,However IME we can "smell our own". The fact that you're getting a stimulant kick from the argument and think it's fun probably isn't a good sign either. If your life is going fine, please don't pay any mind to something someone might say on a tibetan gong ringing forum. You just seem very caught up in a struggle or something. Anyway godspeed, discourse and discussion are what make these threads so outstanding friend.
>>69029846
No it doesn't. What you said has many implications which are totally wrong.
"What was wanted" is the worst. That's literally total shite.

Oh anon it was just a couple of posts! What's /who/ with you? Have you been reading Managra? What about those memes you were working on? How are those coming along?
>>69030095
I've been busy, but I'm doing well.
>>69029871
A bit of recreational arguing, especially if some of the opposing arguments are so weak as to make it like Whack-a-mole, can be quite fun, but I don't think actual aggression is part of it, I'd rather get on from the initial 'how dare you say anything in Doctor Who was even slightly limited by production context and intent' stage to where we've been now, and hopefully there can be other interesting exchanges in future. Generally I do this so intermittently (though more regularly recently) because I have other stuff going on.
> Anyway godspeed, discourse and discussion are what make these threads so outstanding friend.
Indeed!
>>69030209

What would you consider a strong opposing argument? Generally curious.

Also, semi-related - not a historical figure but famous nonetheless - I've always had an idea about a story where a bunch of nostalgic 40-year-olds steal a time machine and go back to the 80s. Using their knowledge of the future, they buy shares, make bets and win lotteries, amassing a fortune and gaining control over the entire world.
When the Doctor and his companion/s arrive in 2016, they realise something is up - society has become a cruel dictatorship where people are forced to live out the 80s over and over again. Any technological/cultural change is suppressed and destroyed by the government. As the Doctor works to fix the timeline, his companion/s become involved in the underground world of electronic dance music, a crime punishable by death in this strange new world. The secret revolutionaries known only as "The Futurists" are planning a huge EDM concert in protest, led by none other than the Most Wanted "music-criminals" on the planet - The Black Eyed Peas!damn that'd be so cool

>>69030342
One that engages with what I'm saying rather than what it's being taken to imply, and has no reference to in-universe meaning, I think. For example, on the subject of the Master's 'death' raised previously.
My argument there was that having a simulated death scene - essentially unnecessary, and slightly odd to anyone who's been following the plot closely - creates an opportunity for RTD to use the Doctor to depict the grief of losing someone and being unable to prevent it, and that this is an example of why RTD's Who scores better with casual viewers than Moffat's.
The way to argue with this is not to mention that there have been other death scenes that hit you as hard, nor to point out that regeneration was mentioned in the middle of the scene, when the unpreventability is where the emotional weight lies, not the reason for it. Nor is denying Moffat Who's slipping popularity, or the importance of that popularity, the way to argue with this. The way to argue with it is to illustrate that A: that scene didn't have the emotional impact claimed, and that B: RTD's Who didn't score better with casual viewers than Moffat's.
Now, I have no idea how you'd prove either of those things. Perhaps you could talk about relatively high ratings during the Amy and Rory back-and-forth (which I think there were, not sure) to illustrate that timey-wimey stuff about grief doesn't neccesarily provide less of an emotional hook for casual viewers. That's all I can think of. What happened was, people argued with the implication and my priorities, instead of starting from the premises I'd established. (No reason they should accept any of them, except an argument, debate or whatever must start from agreed premises, or it's just a way of finding out you were never really arguing.) So they were arguing with me about something I never said.
>>69030686Sounds based tbqhwyf.
>>69030473
I'm glad you've found it productive, and hopefully now my essential perspective, production rather than in-universe, is established, there may be less crossing of wires.
>>69031025
Actually I should say 'production/cultural' rather than 'production'.
My Big Finish order is scheduled for delivery tomorrow! So excited!
I ordered The Chimes of Midnight, Only the Monstrous, and the first Doom Coalition.
Since I haven't watched Doctor Who in about 5 months, which one do you recommend I listen to in order to get back into the swing of things?
>>69030707
So when will you do it?
>>69030876
There are a lot more premises buried in that argument than that and as I recall the main one people were attacking is that RTD's basic approach to drama is really as different from Moffat's as you implied.

If someone were to do a Pertwee story mixed with Monty Python, I think Melanon would have a seizure
>>69031288
I don't remember that, but there are a number of resemblances I've probably not bothered teasing out because I assume Who from RTD onwards will always have some basic similaries to RTD's Who, as he is the show's creator for the purposes of the 21st century TV marketplace.
I hope Chibnall sacks Murray Gold though, I really do.

Why? If anything his music's been better with Capaldi, most of the Smith era he coasted along reusing "I Am the Doctor" for everything.
>>69030209
People who like "recreational arguing" are the most immature morons on the internet. They are a plague upon every forum and a hindrance to all mutual understanding because they're only there to dismissively "refute" people's points so they can stroke their ego over about how smart they are. You're every bit as much of a douchebag as someone who goes around hoping to get into fistfights to prove how tough they are, the only difference being that the fistfighter can tell the difference between landing a hit and falling on his face.
>>69032947
Just because thirteen years is probably long enough even for a very versatile composer.
>>69033021
I never start the argument, my aim is always to have a real discussion. If people come out with bizarre out-of-nowhere claims like 'the Doctor has always been sadistic' (I think they meant 'ruthless', but they stuck with 'sadistic', all the way), then I will argue, of course.

>>69033512
When people ran through screencaps of every time the Doctor used violence in self-defence in order to prove to me that the Doctor tipping Davros out of his wheelchair for cheap audience keks was okay and in line with his established character. I said 'he wasn't being sadistic on those occasions', and they responded 'he's always been sadistic'. Eventually, someone hit on the one comparable incident - the formative moment in the third ever episode, where Ian catches the Doctor apparently about to kill Za.
>>69033702
I don't remember that. I remember you kept saying those stuff were 'fanasty violence' and therefor didn't count or something.

Ian Levine shagged your wife. He's not actually gay. In fact he's probably doing it now whilst you browse /who/ like a fucking loser. Did you know that?
>>69037023
I don't see why first Doctor books written in the present day should necessarily try to be 'authentic' recreations of the era. I see the appeal of doing that, obviously, but he's also a character who you can write about in other contexts.
>>69037045
But I'm not married. In fact, I'm single.
Wait. Is Ian screwing my the woman who will become my wife?
Moffat rubbished claims suggesting the BBC had commissioned only a half-series order of six episodes for 2016: 'People just sit in rooms and make this s**t up. That's absolutely untrue.'
Ian Levine is Jesus Christ's pseudonym. Did you know that?
>>69037241
Yup. He was right. Were only getting a Christmas special.
Ian Levine made an epic documentary on The Edge of Destruction. Did you know that?
Ian Levine got cross with elderly Who stars for having the wrong memories while shooting an epic documentary on The Edge of Destruction. Did you know that?
Ian Levine discovered Take That. Did you know that?
Ian Levine is the real Ian Levine and the porn Ian Levine is not the real Ian Levine. Did you know that?
Ian Levine is more tolerable to listen to than Jack Graham. Did you know that?

Have you read many? There are good ways to do new things and bad ways. A book like The Time Travelers is good. Its plot is complex alternative timeline stuff that has references to a story from the McCoy era I think. And the Doctor strongly alludes (but never says the word "timelord") that he's already trying to think of ways to leave Susan somewhere, because he's worried their people will catch them and he wants her to be safe. And then there's other books were a character just calls him "lord of time" in one sentence and it just comes off as cheesy and a reminder that it's not 60's Who. Or books like Frayed where the entire tone is off from start to finish. It reads just like a modern book.
Of course they shouldn't limit themselves completely only to things that would have been written during the 60's, or only feature things that they could have covered in their budget, but they shouldn't go too far the other way either.
The bottom line is using the words "timelord" or "gallifrey" in a Hartnell story is very naughty and never adds to the story, it just breaks the atmosphere a little.

Ian Levine organised the biggest family reunion of all time. Did you know that?
>>69037471
Never actually heard Jack or Sandyfur speak, but I can't imagine their voices are worse than this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V1GjOAfzTPU
>>69037526
The only time where using the wordfs "Gallifrey" would be needed, is if you're explicitly pulling on the Doctor's heritage.
>>69038005
I'm not sure I understand. Can you give an example?

Like, a story where the First Doctor meets a civilization ravaged by the Time Lords, and is put in prison as a war criminal. Or a story where he meets Time War-era Dalek. He could still have the same characterization, but saying "Gallifrey" is an option, since it's using his status as a Time Lord as part of the story.

Just make sure whatever you write has the exact style and tone of the period of the show it's derived from by not having the characters experience anything that wouldn't have happened on tv at that time, otherwise the story won't "work."

All the '60s female companions were qt as fuck desu. Except Barbara, but she was sexy in a mature way.
You know, for a show that sells itself as a fun faimly show, there isn't much emotion or feeling conveyed by it.
What a sterile, boring, uninteresting show you boys like.

“Now, now,” said Iris. “Just because you're an angry crab-man doesn't mean you can't put the dear Doctor down. He's a very delicate person, you know.”
“I am not “delicate” said the Doctor. He tried to look dignified, which was hard when he was hanging off the edge of a giant red claw that was threatening to drop him. “Although you should put me down.”
“Rwwark-rrwarrrrkk!” said the crab-man, waving his hands up and down.
“Exactly what I was thinking, love! And if you let the nice Doctor down, I'll do that,” said Iris, smiling as the crab-man began to crouch menacingly toward her. as .
“You have absolutely no idea what he said!” said the Doctor. “This oaf can't even understand you! He has the intelligence of a pea!”
“HRRAK-REEEEEE!” said the crab-man.
“I think he can understand some English” mutterred Iris.
The crabman, with all his strength, flung the Doctor .
Iris watched as the Doctor flew in the air. He crumpled in a heap, but at least did it while looking dignified.
Turning to the crab-man, she said “Rrrawk-rrrwawk!” while flapping her hands around.
“Rirowwk!” said the crab-man.
“Rraetetetrekkkkaaakaaa!” said Iris, pointing to a point away from her.
“Rrrwakkjiaka!” said the crab-man happily, who quickly ran in that direction.
The Doctor walked to Iris, who was smirking. “How did you know that would work? It was completely ridiculous.”
Iris patted down his coat, and ignored his frowns. “That's what you don't understand, dear. It worked because it was completely ridiculous. Everything we do is ridiculous, in the end.”
The Doctor shook his head, mutterring something about “Worse than UNIT” as he and Iris walked down the street.

>tfw people actually tell you they won't watch Capaldi as Doctor Who because he's old
I thought it was a meme but it's real. Disgusting.
>>69043358
RIP ratings ;_:
>>69043446
Eh, they'll rush back when a "Jazz Hands" or female Doctor gets cast. I figure it's worth a slightly less popular era to get the benefit of Capaldi's performance, and it's not even THAT much of a dip - nowhere near as bad as the Colin years.
>>69043702
Getting new writers in would definitely help.
>>69044139
Yeah, it'd be nice if Chinballs could politely ditch Gatiss (at least for S11). I suspect
Sleep No More really hurt S9, if there'd been an unbroken run from Zygons to Face the Raven it could have built up its numbers but there's this big flop in the middle breaking any momentum.
Been thinking about setting up a stream. What was that site we used?

I kind of liked Sleep No More but it really had no relevance to anything. It's also the only episode that didn't have Clara doing Doctor like stuff. I mean even Forest had some character development that made it worth at least one viewing.
>>69044808

>It’s not, I assume, a surprise to anyone reading at this point that I strongly consider Gareth Roberts the best writer that the series had. I’ll admit to not being completely unbiased here - Roberts is at this point one of those sorts of casual Internet friends one acquires via things like Twitter. We’ve e-mailed a couple of times, he follows the blog.
Whoa hold the fuck up, Philip Sandifer is friends with Gareth "Murder All Muslims" Roberts? Has he commented on any of Roberts' recent tweets?

Oh boy here we FUCKing go. You think this is a bad show? You think you're better than us because you don't watch Dr. Who? Well guess what? FUCK YOU. I'd like to see you write better. I'd like to see you take a seat in Moffat's chair and try to spin all these fucking plates. Do you have any idea how hard it is to spin plates? FUCK. "oh it' for children, it's for children" You know what else is for children? Lollipops. Do you think lollipops are bad? Do you think you're better than us because you don't suck on lollipops? Seriously fuck off. I'd like to see you try to make a lollipop. Would you even know where to start? It's NOT easy. I'd like to pull you by your fucking ear and take you on a guided tour of a lollipop factory then you might learn some goddamn PERSPECTIVE. Look, we KNOW the show isn't great. We KNOW it's not reaching it's full potential but we're having fun. Is that so bad? Having some fun? Spinning some plates and licking some lollipops? No, I don't think it is. I really don't think it is. And if you do. If you do think it is bad, then why don't you just be quiet? Nobody is asking you to watch it or spin it or suck it or whatever. Just relax and enjoy what you enjoy and let us enjoy what we hate. Oh and don't come barging back in here when Chris Chibnall takes over begging us to let you back and forgive you. We'll remember. We'll remember you didn't have any FAITH or HOPE and that you were mean to us and didnt let us have our fun, took away our fucking lollipops and we we wont EVER forget THAT.
You're just a kid. That's what you are. You need to grow up.

If I had a guess I think they were going for something like the diamond logo from late Pertwee/early Baker, but with widescreen in mind.
The difference being the logo over the diamond was pretty distinctive. I don't really mind the surfboard but the text is just solid black and in a pretty forgettable font.
