Telltale Games

The Highway · 06/12/2010, 08:14 pm

My new (first) car is arriving today, and I need people's help to decide what I should do to it!

Avistew · 06/12/2010, 08:38 pm

Drive it?

What kind of pimping are you thinking about? Painting? Adding some parts?

The Highway · 06/12/2010, 08:40 pm

making the inside much more comfortable for me to feel more happy inside

Avistew · 06/12/2010, 08:42 pm

Ah. I had no clue you could change the inside. Ooh, do you mean by hanging plush dice to your mirror?
Can't really help you with that I'm afraid, but good luck!

What kind of car is it, incidentally?

The Highway · 06/12/2010, 08:45 pm

A 2009 Mazda 2. Don't know if anyone outside of Australia knows of that.

I wish I could hang fluffy dice, but we have a law that we can't hang stuff from the rear view mirror.

Spadge · 06/12/2010, 08:50 pm

Here are my pro tips:
1. Fuzzy Dice and Royal Pine Air Freshener are a must.
2. To provide good carma, add a Virgin Mary figurine next to the front windshield. If you follow another religion, add a small Buddha or Raptor Jesus instead.
3. Rubber Ducky - Cut off the bottom and stick on your tow hitch.
4. This one is tricky, but an insect trapped in amber or an 8-Ball can give the gearstick quite a look.
5. Avoid bumper stickers - we don't want your car to look tacky.
6. Since your automobile is now effectively a sex magnet, always keep extra protection in the glove box.

You should get a hula-dancing Winslow for the dashboard.

1. Definately
2. Raptor Jesus or Zombie Jesus a must
3. Doesn't have a hitch - it's a small car
4. Automatic car
5. Agreed
6. I plan to.

Picture for car-challenged people like me.

If you can't hang stuff, what's left? A cover on the seats?

The Highway · 06/12/2010, 08:59 pm

well, you can put stuff on the dash, etc...

Avistew · 06/12/2010, 09:22 pm

They don't fall when you drive? (car dummy)
I thought stuff on the dashboard would block you view... The only thing I ever put on the dashboard is my feet

(The dashboard is the front of the car, right? under the front window?)

Do you want them to be game-related stuff? Or were you just asking in general?

Spadge · 06/12/2010, 09:27 pm

I just had a brilliant idea: C.O.P.S.!

^ this is a must!

Also, if you are planning to pick up girls with this automotive, I suggest the following:

Paint a mural of Melee Island on the outside (many girls like an artistic guy - also she'll find the stars romantic).

Add seat covers with the map to the treasure of Melee Island on them (in case the conversation dwindles, she'll have something interesting to read while you're driving).

You might also add some useful items in the backseat. A rubber chicken with a pulley in the middle is a must, in case of emergencies, and you should probably keep a red herring and two metal pots (with handles) that you can quickly put on in case of an oncoming collision (she'll appreciate you thought of her safety and feel as though you can protect her in case of a serious catastrophe).

Two words. Flux capacitor.
Surprised it wasn't advised yet.

I love how sincere these suggestions are, while being completely awesome (to me)!

I DEFINITELY need one of those! I want to but a DeLorean now!

taumel · 06/13/2010, 12:03 am

I would add:

a felt pen and some paper (it doesn't have to be flint)
one roll of toilet paper
a road atlas (more fun than nav systems)
a comfy pillow and a small blanket
some filled water bottles
good music

banishingseraph · 06/13/2010, 12:03 am

Some other good accessories would be well this or fuzzy dice.
I know it's a bunch of stuff from the same site but I'm trying to keep it to stuff you can really get. If needed. And why go for the practical when the impractical is so much more fun.
