Sixes Wild is a new anthropomorphic adventure series written by Tempe O’Kun. Sofawolf Press describes it as “a straight western cross-dressing romance”. Probably because the lead characters in this wild west adventure include a male fruit bat (who’s the sheriff of the town of White Rock, Arizona) and a rabbit — who besides being a lady who dresses the part of a male gunslinger, also happens to be the sheriff’s love interest.  Yes, things do get complicated. The first novel of the series, Sixes Wild: Manifest Destiny, was published by Sofawolf Press with illustrations by the artist ShinigamiGirl. Now the second story arc in the series — Sixes Wild: The Bluff — is being serialized on the SoFurry site in comic book format.  It’s illustrated by the artist known as Sidian. [Note: The comic does contain adult-oriented material, so some folks might find their access restricted.]

This week on KnotCast, its our 150th episode! Who would have thought we'd have made it this far? We read a whole pile of email on what the fandom is, then give our own opinions for a while. Marvel as Shiva mangles words, Rekkie is silent for an entire episode, and Savrin tells the tale of why he left the Boy Scouts. Fuzz is here too, we guess. This weeks song is The Astronomical Astronomer's Almanac to All Things Astronomy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SLG9aEZa_eg Don't forget our coupon code 'knot' at AdamEve.com for a great deal. Episode 150 - OneFiveOH

surprised me for sure. This movie was stunning. It’s emotional, character driven, light hearted when needed to be. I can’t help but gush over this film and how good it is. They did it, they manage to make a competent film from this franchise that I think everyone thought was dead. And that scene involving the helicopter is one of those rare holy **** moments that I haven’t gotten from any other film this year that I can remember.

" I usually just roll my eyes when people say that … When the first furry convention started in Southern California, there were some overly imaginative people. News cameras just happened to tune in that. [After those truly interested in Anthrocon left], the convention dried up ... These are mostly young people, and young people have sex ... But we have very stringent codes of conduct here, and we want people to feel they can bring their kids. People portray us as we must all be about sex. But that's not us at all. We're all about self expression, but not in that way."

Let it be noted that, when Pittsburgh City Paper first covered Anthrocon in 2006, they went into a fair amount of detail, including quotes from GoH Scott Shaw! and Rabbit Valley's explicit titles:

Last year they focused on the Furoticon game:

It's 2011: Should we resurrect the furry code?

Most furs won't know what the furry code is, specially since the last version was updated in 1998.

The Furrycode is a highly compressed string of text that acts as a profile and summary of your identity.

For example:

If your a Male Cat, fursuiter, 22 year old and like drawing an example of a code would be:

Example: FC-F+D+A:22

(Felis catus, Fursuiting positive, Drawing Positive, Age: 22)

It can then be decompressed by reading it if you know what the letters mean or using a web decoder. It's handy since you can place that string anywhere.

Now the original furcode is obviously muuuuuch more extensive and covers a lot of questions.

This is the original website of captainpackrat: http://captainpackrat.com/furry/furcode.htm

Now the question is the following.

Would it be useful in 2011 to resurrect the Furry Code and maybe even improve it or update it to make it fit to the current situation of the fandom?

I'd find it very handy myself. It's true that we do have FA profiles and F-lists but a standardised that compresses a good amount of information into a single line, making sure that you know a person better by answering to questions which are often skipped or missing on some other forms of profiles might be an excellent resource to a new or old-new form of furry interaction.

Also, a line of text doesn't bind you to any given website and works with multiple profiles or fursonas and identities.

What do you think?

EDIT: For the curious, this is the yiffcode. With online encoder and decoder:

This week saw the opening of Australian family film Red Dog.

Based on the 2002 novel by Louis de Bernières, the movie tells the real-life story of a Kelpie/cattle dog cross who travelled throughout the Pilbara region of Western Australia in the 1970s.

Reviews of the film have been positive, and at present it has an 85% rating on rottentomatoes.com.

Anthrocon announced Friday night that next year’s convention had been moved up a week to accommodate a mystery event, at the request of the City of Pittsburgh.

The new dates are June 14–17, 2012. Anthrocon was duly rewarded for its flexibility:

Pittsburgh has been given a very rare opportunity to host an event that they have been wanting to host for many years. The only trouble was that the proposed event (and we won’t say what it is until it is officially announced) would lie in part over Anthrocon’s planned weekend. [...] As much as we love our adopted home city and would do anything in our power to support them, we were hesitant to change the date of our convention after having announced it.

Pittsburgh replied with, “What if we got you another hundred hotel rooms within walking distance of the Convention Center?” — We said, “Where do we sign?”

While the event has not been announced, it has been rumoured that the NHL Entry Draft, convened annually in late June, might be coming to Pittsburgh for the first time since 1997.

The city is home to the Pittsburgh Penguins, who fought the Detroit Red Wings for the Stanley Cup in 2008, and won it from them in 2009.
The Penguins recently moved into a new arena (though it didn’t help them this year), and hoped to turn the draft into “a weeklong celebration”.

Anthrocon has faced a lack of hotel space in recent years, and this year’s lackluster growth was directly attributed to the room shortage.

A chicken known as J-Lo because she was born with two rear-ends has been killed by a fox, ocala.com reports. The chicken – who had a large backside covered by white feathers – become a national sensation when news of her double lady-lumps spread over the Web.

As reported by the Ocala Star-Banner:

The couple brushed the feathers away and found two pubic regions, spaced about two inches apart. Typically, there is one such region in the center with a single orifice.

J-Lo was previously in the news in January, when her owners brought forth the extraordinary clucker. Even Jay Leno cracked a joke as the double-bottomed chicken went viral.

We bid ye farewell, J-Lo. You just had too much junk in your trunk to be in this world for long.
