Goodbye TAMF. Welcome MATRVG!

Posted by MATRVG - February 4th, 2022

Hello, guys! I am (was) TheAnotherMadnessFan.


First of all, I wanted to change my username and use a new username. So don't think that TAMF died and someone else had replaced him as new username but on same account.


I have registered here in 2012, when I was a little kid. I was very obsessed with Madness Combat (and other Madness animations) series and TheAnotherMadnessFan username was very suitable for me that time, so I took it.


I was active user on NG until end of 2016. I've decided to end my NG life here and get a focus on reality. Because I had few family issues, work issues etc. Now, I've resurfaced few months ago, with big hopes and plans of my animations, still with same username but itching to change it to my real username, MATRVG. Now I have changed it.


Why MATRVG?


MAT is my acronym of my names and RVG stands for Retro Video Gaming. And I have YouTube channel by the name goes of "MAT Retro Video Gaming". I was active there too, but I don't really have time to record video games and put it as priority during my free time. My computer is not perfect but not too bad machine. For example, I can play Black Ops 2 and 3 in Ultra Settings but I cannot play them while recording, because of hitching during gameplay. I was suffering while recording and playing. I have decided to play games but stop recording for a while. So, if you find me on YouTube, you'll see I am not very active there.


I really admire users like @Mejson, @MariogD, @SayMeBott and @Cyberdevil, because all of them were with me the whole time, giving me useful recommendations, and not just about animating, but real life. And most of their work changed my perspective of stickman animations and gave me big hope to create a new saga of myself. Guys, if you are here, good luck about making Reduce saga!!! I am sorry, I was so late to join you now :/


What this MATRVG does?


As of now, I am doing stickman animation through Pivot 5 beta. I am currently working on Line of Work Trailer animation. I have a long work hours and barely use my free times, I'm sorry. I know I kept you waiting too long but it will worth it to waiting, trust me ^^


In short, TheAnotherMadnessFan no longer exist, it will stay as my past. Now TAMF's successor MATRVG will stay forever and active on NG. MATRVG will animate Stickman movies, like back in 2008-2012 times! This is my colossal hope.


Any questions, feel free to ask!


Regards,


~ MATRVG

Hello MATRVG,
Thank you for putting me here by name. It is big honour for me.
Still waiting for Line of Work trailer. I have high hopes after seeing previous examples from PM,
Like Mejson said to Steve at the end of Reduce 1: “welcome to the party”
P.S. Still did not answer your last message. I promise I will do!

MATRVG

Hello,

You're welcome. You and others have big impact on my life and inspiring me for my animation. Of course you had to be there. ;)

And, still waiting for free time to continue on that. :( Thanks for your compliments on my examples. Hey, you said examples. I even cannot imagine how it will get more incredible soon, if they are good by you all.

Wow... Thanks for inviting me. ^^

It's okay, no problem. Waiting on your reply.

Greetings,

Hi!

Here it happens that someone changes their username.
Well, if you liked Madness animations, then this nickname was the right one. And if you came back as a new person (after a few years), a change was actually needed.

I was also absent from NG for some time (two years). Well, if you had to focus on something else, that's understandable.

Well, I come from a family (and customs) with only one name. Well, it's understandable - why such a nickname.
Being a Youtuber is an engrossing job. Well, everyone has problems with the lack of a graphics card.

Did you put me in the first place? Nice: P But I'm certainly not the most popular (of the present). It's amazing that you were so inspired! It's great that you started creating stick figure animations yourself :) I can't wait to see your movie ready for NG :)

Thanks for the wishes! You're late? What do you mean?

How many hours do you work? Overworking unhealthily, I hope it doesn't hurt you.

Good luck and thank you!

PS. You can always join our project as Beta Tester. And to the team as any artist :)

Regards,
Mejson

Hello,

Not just liked. I was so obsessed with them that I watched them almost everyday! I clearly don't know why... Yeah, I grew up and had some experiences and this had improved my personality. So changing nickname was seemed to be a good idea for me.

Yes, you cannot stay here all day, you must have other things to work out.

I actually didn't think about this username too long, I just pointed my finger and said "this could be!"... why not? :D

Errr, even uploading a video is pain in the arse. I never forget the days I left my PC on before I sleep, due to taking too long time to be uploaded. I actually don't have much subscribers and viewers. More likely, I was doing this for hobby, nothing else. And the animation is also my hobby. But sometimes you have to take a break so you don't give up on it. Because it will seem like boring job to you and you will want to get rid of it as soon as possible. And guess what? You just did something you didn't positively expect.

:P Sorry to say this, but WX's animations was my first favorite CS animations before you. de_aztec, de_dust2 etc. but he went offline I think. His works were also good, but I think yours are very reasonable and emotional. At least your characters and real peoples (just Jimmy, Candy, Diablo etc.) have definable behaviors and personalities.
Like, Mazurek is alcoholic, Bill loves smoking, Diablo sleeps everywhere, Candy is very childish, MariogD loves grenades, Bott* using off-game weaponry, and you? Cheating XD

What about WX (or FlashDeck) animations about personality and emotions? Dumbass accidentally kills The Pro, then The Pro changes team and seeks for revenge, and still couldn't kill him. Duhh...

Anyway, I really look forward to send more clips to you and others, and publish it as the Trailer. About the real thing? I think its elapsed date is... around mid 2023 :(

I mean, I could've contacted you all earlier. Thank God you are still here and weren't away like I was.

I actually work for eight hours. But since we have less crew, they ask of us to stay four more hours or come four hours earlier for work, depending on shifts... I have worked 12 hours for three days in this week. No, it actually doesn't but using torch without shades really hurt my eyes XO I couldn't sleep that night.

Good luck you too, man!

I rejected this offer at first, because of I had barely free time... but I think I have changed my mind. I want in! Reply my PM and I will tell you about my personality, although I've already told MariogD... but there are some extra infos about me. I don't feel lazy to write them again XD

Damn, wrote too long! Don't swear while reading XD

SayMeBott

Hey,

We got to know genesis of your nickname - I like such flavors! :D
My nickname is still a secret (why double "t" and why "*") - but there will come a day...

I like to say "Apes together strong!" :)

MATRVG

Yo,

Heh, I like that kind of names either!
Well, if you ask me, my guess is, you play CS very bad and your squadmates call you "Bot" with another "t" due anger and holding the key for one second, and "*" indicates star and you indicate yourself as Star Bot, King Bot etc.

Hell no, I was kidding XD ...wait, was that real?

And I like to say "We are all soldiers, without an army". ;)

@MariogD @MATRVG

It is very unusual to hear it :) I am impressed to hear it! I don't have that opportunity too often. xD

You're pretty good at realism and dynamic. Have you done any animations before?

No problem :)

MATRVG

Hey,

That's too bad if you don't receive that kind of great words frequently, I just say what you deserve ^^

Woah, really? Thanks :) I try my best every time I do them clips.. I have actually done animating when I was teenager but I wasn't too keen on that. I was too amateur, and the program I've been using was Pivot 3. No sounds were added because I didn't knew how to do and I didn't finish the animation. Then I have renewed my PC.

It's good to have myself back on the grid for animating for REAL XD It felt good. Thanks for support as always!

Greetings,

@MATRVG

I'm not surprised :P There were a lot of these animations, so you had something to watch XD It's true and at the same time it was so easy to watch :) A lot of people created MADNESS-style animations, because I think that these characters are easy to animate. It's good that you changed.

Yes, sometimes you have to take a break :) It's nice to meet other people who have the same hobbies (animations). Well, I always have such a thing that the project evolves with its own life because something needs to be added to make it more coherent.

I know WX's animations were much better, I was at a lower level of creative skills back then, and our team didn't have much advice either. I think the guy was long gone (creating). Well thanks for the nice words but I know CS wasn't special. The high rating is the result of multiple voting by fans (it was possible in the past - before the NG update). Mazurek an alcoholic? XD But he got it! Hehehe. He didn't drink much like that :P Such a joke XD Yeah, sick Diablo (narcolepsy) :P Well, we failed to take advantage this motive (Reduce 3). Candy is autistic - that's why. Noooooo, I'm not cheating XD

Only in 2023 full animation? Well... the creation process is long.

Well... here I'm. I will probably be here (NG) until I die XD This is my life passion :P

But I hope the extra ones pay for you work of such overtime...

Well, it doesn't take too long to write something and testing a project isn't very frequent as updates take time. I didn't get a PM from you. Well, you can write to me often because MariogD has less time to write back.

A really long message :P

Mejson

Yeah, back in around 2011s, that kind of animation movies were fashion to submit here, I loved them all. Especially the one Happiness Apotheosis XD A non-canon replacement for Madness Combat 4. Frank Wimbleton has colorful clothes and bandages and driving a ice cream van to the target building. He stops and starts giving toys to bad guys and make them happy. After he is deep inside the building, he gives a teddy bear to the boss (I don't remember if it was Jesus, Sheriff or Tricky) but he kills Frank because he thought that bear could be a disguise for C4 explosive. He rips it apart and nothing happens, then he regrets and cries because he killed him for nothing. THEN THAT BUILDING SUDDENLY EXPLODES! Frank's body was filled with Explosives and real Hank Wimbleton seemingly detonates and watches the explosion a distance, lifting his thumb XD TRUE CANON ENDING!

Of course, man. Take your time while animating. Nobody's holding a stopwatch for your movies. The quick you become, the worse it will be. And to be honest, I've never saw anything wrong about your animations ;)

Just like Madness animations, CS animations were also a fashion back then. I am also planning something outside Line of Work. CS Beta? Sure! But hey, even your team didn't had too much on hands, I don't know what other people thinks, but I like them. Even how Candy character turned into childish personality in #3. Mazurek doesn't drink? Mazurek drinks. He drinks in #1's intro, even Rash (Ziomek) and Zip steals beers from him XD. He drinks in #4, where Bill snipes and shoots his bottle off and he screams :P I also like how Rash and Zip's head turned to normal from eclipse and square. It's real relief to see they gained some nice shape :P Pawelo becomes Don. I don't know, man. You were getting better in CS animations and started to put eyebrows on characters in #3. Nobody's perfect from first. Me? I have sent you character clips, they were lame. Hopkins and the opponent doesn't even stand on any floors and AK-47 flies off of him after he is killed XD Now you say I am very good at dynamic and physic animating. In short, we all get improved at some point even we don't plan for it :)

Meantime, I was very big fan of Stickman on the Crack kind of animations. They are designed and animated from Pivot Stickfigure Animator.

Aside you and WX, I also like this CS Animation:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_XuMoCrinYk&t=36s

This isn't very known animation.

You, don't, cheating? XD Okay I believe it. Because you said you don't. Maybe :P

Was Candy autism? Oh fuck! I thought he was stupid and unnecessary character, for years!!!

If I have sufficient money to live longer and no work for me. It can be released this year! Exact month isn't guaranteed :/

We think same about living on NG until death.

Of course they give us our money, otherwise we are not dumb enough to make the factory run longer. I hope you've heard this from anybody "I'M NOT SAVING THE WHOLE PLACE" XD That's my quote now :P

You didn't get PM because I haven't sent one yet XD I will do it now.

The Another Longer Message [:

Mejson

@SayMeBott Hopefully the meaning will be epic because the longer people wait, the more the expectation grows :D

Well, we'll probably find out in a few years XD

Mejson

@MATRVG Well, I like it, but it doesn't fascinate me that much: P Yes, it's possible that is canonical ending.

Thanks, if you think so, I don't want to take you out of mistake XD

Okay, maybe so! xD

I didn't know there was a program for Stick Figure :P That's good for others.

Well... this animation is too slow like for CS animation.

Well, I'm not surprised you didn't know... hardly anyone has time to read character descriptions. :P

I understand :/ Before that, I didn't have a good job either.

To death! Hehehe :P

OK :)

Yes, longer... XD

Interesting to skim through the conversations here, so much nostalgia, though I'm not as well-versed in the notable stickfigure creators of the past in particular... regarding the life and NG and all though, as has become a bit of a slogan in the Reduce realm: Flash will never die as long as we're alive!!! And maybe we'll Pivot to new heights now too. ;)

Thanks for the appreciation above, and the new username's definitely quicker to type in too! Exciting to see where this new start leads; how the saga develops here.

Can't wait to see it on NG for real.
