Quickblog: No Podtoid today. Now with updates on Anthony's status!
Ashley Davis \| 3:27 PM on 05.05.2009	61 comments

Hey guys, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but Podtoid 99 will not be put up until tomorrow at the very least, and a couple of days at the very most. I'm writing this C-blog on behalf of Anthony, who is unfortunately in the hospital for appendicitis. He will undergo surgery later this evening, so if you would like, please feel free to keep him in your thoughts/pray/sacrifice a goat to help ensure that things go smoothly for him.

EDIT: He just left for his surgery, but left me with enough direction to get the podcast up on iTunes. So hopefully, it is there now. If it isn't, then I suck.

EDIT EDIT: Anthony just had his appendix taken out through his bellybutton. Ewwww. But he's drugged up and resting and just fine. He'll be back home tomorrow. Yay!

'No Podtiod today'

At least the wait will be over soon.

Oh, and tell the good sir Rev Anthony that I hope he gets better and he's back on his feet very soon. :)

Gutted. I hope Rev Anthony gets better quickly.

Please send him our best wishes. And hook him up with lots of ice cream (people get ice cream post-appendectomy, right? I swear I saw that in a Diff'rent Strokes episode).

Seriously, I hope his recovery is a speedy one.

Dude, that sucks. ZeroAtma has his appendix taken out last year. Tell Rev I hope he feels better!

THAT SON HOF A BITCH APPENDIX

PappaDukes says:
(# 7) on 05/05/2009 15:53

Man, if McGyver were here, he'd have had that appendicitis removed with a toothpick, a gerbil and a stick of gum!

Oh well, Rev get better.

P.S. My goat will soon hate you :-(

Let the Indie Games Gods help Anthony in his time of need!

Jesus dude. I hope everything goes ok. *hugs*

Jack Maverick says:
(# 12) on 05/05/2009 16:06

I feel bad. I had to look up what appendicitis exactly is. Now I feel even worse. Hope things go well for the Rev.

Kohlstream says:
(# 13) on 05/05/2009 16:11

According to the Simpsons they need to get it out before it explodes. Fortunately you only need a pocketknife and the patient recovers strait away!

vexed alex says:
(# 14) on 05/05/2009 16:11

Feel better!

Danzflor says:
(# 15) on 05/05/2009 16:14

i want more HAWP so you better get well :)

ikiryou says:
(# 16) on 05/05/2009 16:26

Heal, doggoneit! The much-needed smarmyness is much-needed <o_0>

DanlHaas says:

I never met an appendix that could keep my Rev down. I'm sure he'll be back in no time.

IroN1c says:
(# 18) on 05/05/2009 16:39

I was wondering what takes this Podtoid so long...
Hope everything goes smooth and certainly he will be better soon. WTF is up with the header though. Now I'm horrified for the rest of the day, I hate maths.

Pyroph says:

Get better Rev<333

PhazonYoshi says:
(# 20) on 05/05/2009 16:44

Good luck, Rev :(

Ashley Davis says:
(# 21) on 05/05/2009 16:46

@IroN1c: It's a weapon from the Parodius games. Math being terrifying makes it the perfect weapon, don't you think?

Thank you everyone. We really appreciate your love and support! Keep it coming!

XanderSan says:
(# 22) on 05/05/2009 16:46

Ack! That's awful, hope it all goes smoothly. Let him know TIGSource is wishing him well! I'm sure Cactus'll probably have another 20 games or so by the time he comes out too anyways.

Brian Keljore says:
(# 23) on 05/05/2009 16:51

I'm sure he'll be fine, just make sure he's careful afterwords. Abdominal stitches are a bitch! Hope he comes through soon and hopefully he won't have insane vampire nurses like I did.

IroN1c says:
(# 24) on 05/05/2009 16:59

@Ashley Davis:
No, no, no. That is just wrong. That weapon kinda breaks the fourth wall for me and inflicts damage to myself if I would play it. It's not just that I hate maths, I'm afraid of it. It's in my dreams. In my nightmares. Actually, it's 11:58pm over here and I'm not going to sleep tonight because of it.

Jesus H Christ says:
(# 25) on 05/05/2009 17:02

I would wish him well if I didn't know he'd just come in here and call us all fags for being friendly.

HOPE YOUR SURGERY ISN'T BOTCHED, EMO KID.

No, seriously.

Half left says:
(# 26) on 05/05/2009 17:15

Appendectomy?

what a girl.

Arugala9 says:

Feel better Rev.

Aurion says:
(# 28) on 05/05/2009 17:42

Rev >>> Appendixes everywhere.

Wexx says:
(# 29) on 05/05/2009 17:47

Oh jeez, I guess I'll have to go out and buy a goat, like now.

Don't you die on me grrl. Don't you fucking die on me.

(# 31) on 05/05/2009 18:31

Nasty! Hope he feels better pronto. Drink Aloe Vera juice! Soothes the guts. Literally.

And i`ve cast cura, of course.

Puppy Licks says:
(# 32) on 05/05/2009 18:56

Get better soon Rev!

(# 33) on 05/05/2009 19:32

Isn't the apendex where bile is made? Or is that the pancreas... hmm. I'm going to go look this up...

oh, glad to hear you're better, Rev. Keep on rockin' in the free world.

Samit Sarkar says:
(# 34) on 05/05/2009 23:27

Oh shit. Hope everything goes okay!

Gyrael says:
(# 35) on 05/05/2009 23:29

Damn, I hope he gets well fast. I had appendicitis last year. Not fun.

Dimly says:
(# 36) on 05/05/2009 23:33

Get that shit outta there! Appendectomy FTW!

riomccarthy says:
(# 37) on 05/05/2009 23:33

Awww I wish him the best. :( I hope everything goes well and he recovers quickly. Best wishes!

inque says:
(# 38) on 05/05/2009 23:38

Pwn that Appendix Rev Anthony!

Good luck!

ShadokatRegn says:

Best wishes to Anthony; Get well soon!

Qapf says:

May his ride into Valhalla be herald by the death of his enemies.

In seriousness, I hope Rev is ok.

Moral of the story: Stay away from Kobe Pizza

Samit Sarkar says:
(# 42) on 05/06/2009 00:13

YAY!

He'll be ready for Dr. Beard and the Indiefag in the Morning, then?

NihonTiger90 says:
(# 43) on 05/06/2009 00:17

I wish him a quick recovery!

ChronosWing says:
(# 44) on 05/06/2009 01:34

That's what you get for dipping pizza hut pizza in condensed chicken noodle soup. It might of been tasty but that's just the Kobe Pizza lulling you into a false sense of security so you'll eat more.

Jack Maverick says:
(# 45) on 05/06/2009 02:26

HE LIIIIIIIIIIIVES.

Hope he feels better soon.

Kif says:
(# 46) on 05/06/2009 07:37

I can't wait for Rev's review on the surgery.

TheToiletDuck says:
(# 47) on 05/06/2009 07:59

What the hell? They take the appendix out THROUGH your belly button? That's some egyptian mummification brain hook shit right there.

Hope he feels better soon.

Char Aznable says:
(# 48) on 05/06/2009 08:40

Get well soon, Rev! Enjoy your ice cream:

about me
Awesome drawing of me by Jack Maverick! Hi! My name is Ashley. I like video games, and to write and draw. Sometimes I combine the three. I have a huge knowledge of video game trivia and pop culture trivia in general, and I like to overanalyze things both for fun and for your entertainment. I also like ducks and koala cookies. My favorite game genres are puzzles, platformers, and scrolling shooters. I also really enjoy Mario Kart. But I don't like to limit myself, so I'll give anything a go at least once. Even though my first console was an NES, I grew up mostly on the Genesis. Much of my childhood was spent playing Sonic 2 multiplayer by myself. I would switch the controller after every round and play both characters evenly so that it would always end in a tie. I am a little shy, so you may have to prod me, but I would love to be your newest friend!

He is in a better place, free of Zappers and laughing dogs.
