Hey! I just watched yours DeviantArt profile, nice draws you have! Also, I enjoyed all flash movies so far. Nice job! Nice style too. ;D Keep up good work! ^.~

Bah, I was looking forward to Zelda UO 9.

Anyways, you're absolutely correct - as far as your life at this point, it should pretty much be school > work > original content > life > Zelda UO. A fan production will get you nowhere near as far as original work will. If it gets you anywhere beyond a superficial recognition of your animation skills.

The new stuff you pointed out looks interesting - I'll have to pay attention.

You do what you need to do. Personaly me, the Zelda UO did make me become your fan, but I'm kinda sick of fan made zelda stuff. The characters, plot, and originality of your new stuff will keep me as your fan.


Nov. 4, 2009 | 6:09 AM CrossedSwords says:

Meh, I followed Zelda UO cause it was a bit different from most other LOZ spinoffs and if your real work is all about that it's ok with me, I'm happy to follow the animator rather than just the animation. Btw the picture of that guy looks a bit like Kenshin, which is awesome :D


Nov. 4, 2009 | 6:13 AM Eiomaru says:

Rock on Scoot! Good luck and fight the online Flash anime fight hahah XD


Nov. 4, 2009 | 6:27 AM casey-sama says:

Take your time in life, do your best in school, and we'll be waiting for when you're ready to come back to LOZ UO. Thanks for providing us a great story, and we'll look forward to what else you have in mind.
We love you for who you are and what you do with talents.

-Casey-sama


Nov. 4, 2009 | 7:24 AM thedood20 says:

Hey don't worry about it because when you're done with college, you will have new ideas so take you're time!


Nov. 4, 2009 | 7:39 AM Aaroca says:

Damn.
That sucks.
Me and my brother really enjoy LOZ UO. But we are practically the most patient people in the world.
Meaning: Take your time.

Way to set priorities Scoot. Its hard to hear that UO won't be a part of your future at this time, but its still good to hear that you're head is in the right place. I'm sure your talents in animation and art will serve you well in your future, and I do look forward to your upcoming original comics and animations. Best of luck.

Nov. 4, 2009 | 11:08 AM Link7057 says:

dude its alright i understand that you had to make this choice. its like randy solem's Link's Quest for Ass, he had to get his life started and he become a police officer so he had to quit it. but its like you said you will start it again later, and if you dont i am sure someone will remind you. i have a fan book in the making, and i havent been doing anything in it because i have been going to school and working, and all i want to do is play my game or go to sleep....sleepping seems to favor right now...but like i said life is important. so just do your thing and go with it dude and good luck!!!!!


Nov. 4, 2009 | 11:08 AM lenkobiscuit says:

it took you 8 minutes to say you can't work on a series anymore due to other things?

Nov. 4, 2009 | 11:56 AM ScootLumpDude responds:

Watch it again if you don't believe it.


Nov. 4, 2009 | 11:56 AM YK-Blaze says:

stop making video commentary its freaking gay!
seriously you have some problem with just writing the update?
what the hell made you think that video updates is a good idea?

Please keep your insecurities to yourself.

Bah. These people are horrible... Ah well, sorry to hear that you can't do anything for a bit. We can't wait for you to come back to us!

Nov. 4, 2009 | 4:12 PM Darmealea says:

Why the fuck do you talk so like... epic? Seriously... Is that like a mental condition or something? You're like Bruce Willis meets Keanu Reeves. It's wierd. You just say everything in an awesome way.


Nov. 4, 2009 | 4:24 PM silverjace says:

a bit disappointed that zelda UO is on hold, but I understand; school comes first. Looking forward to your original stuff as I'm sure its awesome and the return of zelda UO. Good luck in school


Nov. 4, 2009 | 5:33 PM LemurNinja says:

It saddens me to hear that you are going to stop make flash videos for a while. Oh well, I understand that it is hard for you to do that with your new life. I hope that college goes well and you have a great time.


Nov. 4, 2009 | 5:41 PM corbindioxide says:

Well, you gotta do what you gotta do, i personally am a HUGE legend of zelda fan, but ,if this is the end of zelda: UO for right now then so be it, but i'd just like to say that the way you merged the stories, it was..almost completely perfect, some parts were iffy, but im glad you gave dark link a shot at it, and happy you found a way to explain the triumph/ item music (diggs record player) , anyway i will really miss zelda: UO. i dont blame you for having a future scoot. Hang tight Live free bro. PEACE


Nov. 4, 2009 | 5:58 PM fireblast200 says:

Sad to here that about Zelda UO, oh well Zelda UO got me to you and I like all your stuff. I will wait for any new stuff you mack and I can wait for Zelda UO tell your ready, your life comes first. I just hope it will come back one day ( I think you said it would on the up-date in some years but my pc made it hard to hear you if you can tell me if that is right that would be cool if not that is ok). I hope all goes well in your life, tell the next comment lol.


Nov. 4, 2009 | 6:05 PM ant109 says:

Sad....but I understand why ur doing this. But when you say "I'm going to put it on hold" You have nothing to worry about. Some of the best flashes come out once every 2 years. Look at killing spree and Joe Zombie they haven't come out with new material in years and they're fan are still on edge. Your fans will understand (mostly) what your going though. So Keep doing what you do.


Nov. 4, 2009 | 6:08 PM link3740 says:

FUCK MY LIFE MAN! GEEZ! I knew this day would come so for now scoot. pm me. i have and idea i don't wanna post here


Nov. 4, 2009 | 6:51 PM Hollowmask says:

I'm very disappointed to hear this, but you gotta live your life.
Hope you see more stories from ya! Good luck in school! :3

Nov. 4, 2009 | 7:38 PM Quidoo says:

Hmmm...

I wouldn't even bother impying a guarantee that you will come back to UO in a few years. It is subtly obvious (oxymoron, much?) that the series isn't working out as well for you as it could, seeing as it keeps getting cancellations and all that. You could just let it go completely if it's being a drag; as you said, there are far more important things that must be attended to. Also, you have no idea what will happen after college. You may get caught up in something far more significant that animating for kicks.

'Don't let illusionary obligations hold you back' is basically what i'm trying to say.

Anyway, I'm glad that you are focusing on your own original work. It should develop a 'real fanbase', if you know what I mean. (Not like the usual video game whore crowd, although i'm sure you appreciate them a fair bit, though not enough to become their bitch, which is a very good thing)

Good luck is all else I can say, I guess.

Toodle-oo!


Nov. 4, 2009 | 8:12 PM Henselishere says:

Hey man, things happen. Thanks so much for the Zelda so far it's been great I hope you do go back to it. But I also hope you get the new series on, the one you won't tell us about. I'm extremly interested in that too. Best of luck in you classes man. And thanks again for doing what you do.


Nov. 4, 2009 | 8:22 PM trickster206 says:

get back to the UO series if you can we all love that series so please get back to it as soon as you can :)


Nov. 4, 2009 | 9:03 PM Linkxstorm says:

im not gona leave a I HATE YOU comment like some idiots do its just immature
Although im dissapointed that UO is going away it does spark my intrest of the statistc and the secret you talked about and the whookos animation GL in colage and i hope to see UO again someday you haz my back as a fan :D


Nov. 4, 2009 | 9:05 PM Linkxstorm says:

Also any fan who gives you crap is not a real fan and their just being heartless jerks who wont listen to anything you say other then no UO for a long time


Nov. 4, 2009 | 9:47 PM killerphoenix92 says:

dude........im......so.... shocked
sorry to hear the news......man i wanna bust out in tears but i will be strong , and as a fan i will stick to your work till the end im serious.
And when Zelda UO returns i will be there take care¡¡¡¡
regards: killerphoenix92


Nov. 4, 2009 | 10:20 PM MarneusCalgar says:

Bummer... And I was looking forward to the next episode. :(


Nov. 4, 2009 | 11:31 PM xinleiryu says:

what if... just spit balling here.... you hand off the story line to some one of many talents in ways of the flash, true artists and friends(clocks locks and fag federation can stay out of this one) i.e. hikari42, The-Swain, chluaid or drifts.... some one other that nature... overall i'll be here for a couple of years, waiting.... do what you have to... and good luck in all your endevors!


Nov. 4, 2009 | 11:37 PM megaluigi says:

Sorry to tell you all who are hating him for choosing more important things than your damn obsessions. But get a f*cking life. What he says he gave up the series for is a lot more important than ANY damn movie series, even Egoraptor's Awesome series. No flash movie is more important than what YOU really want, not what your fans want. If you're pissed off he stopped the series, stop bitching and get a life or make your own god damn series.


Nov. 5, 2009 | 12:52 AM scout89 says:

I understand, school comes first. It's kind of a big blow though that newgrounds' most followed series is gonna be put on a long hold. Although, not to contradict what you have said, but I think that you will have at least most of Zelda UO Episode 9 finished by around July/August of next year. That's 8 months, and I'm sure you will find a reasonable gap of free time in that period, assuming you still want to work on Zelda UO, of course. I'm in my 3rd year of college, so I know it's tough, but once you are in between semesters, you have ALOT more free time. Again, it's fine; I can wait a few more months. I'm not expecting the series to be entirely complete for, at the very least, 5 years. Good luck with the schoolwork.


Nov. 5, 2009 | 4:37 PM smashman18 says:

zelda UO being put on hold is going to make a few people dislike u again i remember when you did it once before but college work is important and hard since im at college aswell but its ur choice and we cant change it you shouldnt be insulted by people because of it -_-


Nov. 5, 2009 | 7:49 PM Henselishere says:

Hey, I posted but thena thought hit me. Will you still post flash toturals on you Scoot Of Whookos website?


Nov. 5, 2009 | 10:26 PM HelljustcallmeChuck says:

Wow kinda sad that UO is gonna be gone, but i get why. o well. look forward to that pne thing you got planned. also, video update ftw, because anyone can type something, not just everyone has the sack necessary to do this. *Psychic high-five*


Nov. 6, 2009 | 2:36 AM SniperDragon says:

Hey Scoot. I love your artwork and Im a long time fan of UO and your shorts. After watching your video update, all I can say is one thing: I understand. I applaud that you have prioritized yourself and have decided what is most important to you. And yeah, the college thing does take its toll speaking from one who is also in college.

Once again Scoot, thank you for your amazing artist insight with your style. thank you for making a mature act in this world of immaturity. I look forward to whatever you come out with. Take it easy bro.

Rob


Nov. 6, 2009 | 3:25 PM Maross says:

well i wish zelda uo was an acutall game the would the best one i geuss im sad the there will not be any more for a log tim well i hope you make more shorts


Nov. 6, 2009 | 8:08 PM yure22 says:

okay man i understand so dont worry i will always agree with what you say, so br happy with your girlfriend ha good luck.
PS: i think it was good to tell us about the decision so not be wasting our time searching for uo9.

aw im just kidding!
:(


Nov. 7, 2009 | 12:40 AM Zorthax says:

good luck on colledge and good luck on your life..and i can't wait to see your animations when you out of colledge IM SO FREAKIIIIING SYCHED OH MAN YOUR ANIMATIONS ARE ALREADY GOOD IF THEY GET BETTER GOD WILL WATCH IT AND BE AMAZED NO FREAKING JOKE AND I BET MORE THAN HALF OF YOR FANS AGREE!!!!!!!!!! (mabye all) SO IM NOT DISAPPOINTED GOOD LUCK oh and an idea for a sieries zortian and acro lol made that up and its origional i can't make it cause i don't have the proper set to make animations but anyway zortian is a dark cryotalion which is a ice wizard mixed with darkness he can break ice to thousands of pieces and engulf people in dark where no matter what they do there in hell but the other guy acro is a cretopenian a person who can controll somthing i like to call whithostiziac this is the cartoon colored substance that can form anywhere anytime anyplace but is very uncontrollable its powers are unknown but arnt weak
zortian is the good guy (whoever said dark is bad is a well judgemeantal zortian has black hair and black outlining of the pupil and a blue fire pupil his hair is long but not under his chest
and for acro hes the bad guywho cares for noone hes has almost the same characteristics as zortian except for the hair his hair is outlining white with black and the wierd substance on his center of the head
the substance ??? all that is know is that its silver blob and pop out of the air thats all
you can make up the rest.. these are ideas/gifts to your animating future.its like i said a gift so noone can acuse you of stealing :) daaang thats big ^o^! anyway GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!!!!!


Nov. 7, 2009 | 11:59 AM Greenlink27 says:

I cant believe it, it feels like someones torn my soul out.I love the Zelda UO series but i respect you focusing on school and work when it comes back all be watching.


Nov. 7, 2009 | 9:55 PM mexicanchicken97 says:

well im saddenedat the thought if no more zelda i look forward to your original stuff


Nov. 8, 2009 | 1:46 PM KayoCasari says:

It's been a pleasure watching Zelda UO. Quite frankly, it was one of the reasons I check Newgrounds so frequently. I suppose I'm just more shocked than anything else. I wish you the best on making a name for yourself beyond Zelda fandom; I'll still be checking back for your original work. Thank you for creating one of the greatest flash series ever made. I think I speak for most of us when I say this:

Your characters spoke to us, your story enchanted us, and the amount of originality you were able to put into a fan series blew us away. We're sorry to see it go. Just don't put it too far back in your mind. Remember, we're your fans. We will wait.


Nov. 9, 2009 | 4:47 PM Shadowralkin says:

Well seeing how most like to say bad things its best to ignore XD but its a hard life we all have and we gotta watch our future and hope you do well good ser :) people just need to look at it this way after some years Zelda UO will make a big come back whenever your ready to tackle it >.> and of course people just need to wait x.x. anyways i wish ya ton of luck with your future and i must go back to writing my stories -_- take care scoots :D


Nov. 10, 2009 | 12:23 PM madskillz537 says:

oh man thats just to bad but still i know how your situation is and i hope you might do some work in the future :D


Nov. 10, 2009 | 8:17 PM Hazreihel says:

I think it sucks and don't agree, but I see your reasoning. I would love for you to just work on it in your spare time, but by the sound of you, you seem to have none. XD

One favor I would ask of you, can you please tell us fans what happens? I loved the animations and have waited for more than a year. The story you were telling was amazing, so could you just give us a little write up on what you were planning? It's cool if you are to busy for something like that, but it sucks cutting something you've worked on forever so suddenly.

Best of luck in life.


Nov. 11, 2009 | 2:32 AM Domnoodles says:

It must of been a hard a hard decision. But its good to prioritise. Exited for new comic! =)


Nov. 11, 2009 | 9:53 AM MegoBOOM says:

I understand your decision about Zelda UO (it was the reason I started following you) but I am glad that you will one day return to it. Your schoolwork should be first in your priorities and that should take up more of your time than anything else and you must be true to yourself. P.S. I'm glad I'm not the only one who likes the band Dragonforce


Nov. 11, 2009 | 3:32 PM Hitamu says:

Hey man Im also in college and I know what you mean. It can be very time consuming and well life is just more important than most things. So I say good luck to you and I will always be a very big fan. Good luck with college, work and maybe some love life mixed in there :P


Nov. 12, 2009 | 11:51 PM linksdarkshadow says:

AAARRRGGGHHH!!!! NOOOO!!!
Damn! I was so looking forward to the next episode!!

Oh well, as a college student myself, I know that school itself takes up alot of time and can be fairly stressful at times. Although, I hate to see a series like Zelda UO die like this.....(technically I know its not dead...but I have been a fan of many artists, and have witnessed them putting their work on hiatus only to abandon it all together. It breaks my heart every time....)

For what its worth, Zelda UO was basically the only thing keeping me coming back to Newgrounds every other day. I consider it probably the best Zelda tribute ever. Good Luck with everything, Scoot!

O( T - T )---b


Nov. 13, 2009 | 1:54 AM gh3legend says:

A very wise decision Scoot. Do what you believe is right, and I am not at all disappointed by your decision. Because after all it is yours to make, not anyone else's, so any problems they have, well that's just too bad! I'm excited to see what you will have to offer in terms of your Statistic flash comic, any of your original creations, and hope to see what your skills after college :D. Always follow your heart, it will always lead you to the right decision. and I can't wait to see what the future holds in store for you and your friends as well as myself :D


Nov. 13, 2009 | 7:46 PM Berkilze says:

I understand what your saying, no need to explain yourself man.


Nov. 14, 2009 | 4:02 AM Scibie says:

Its cool! Everyone has to live their life to the fullest and its not like you are stopping altogether! I was one of those people who found zelda UO first and became a fan because of that, but then I saw the rest of your work and what your imagination can do... and was all the better for it!


Nov. 14, 2009 | 5:57 AM ForceHog says:

Dissapointed? This is freakin' great! I was wondering what all those original works were going to amount to... It sounds like it's gonna be great!

Can't wait - ForceHog


Nov. 14, 2009 | 12:56 PM nintendokid29a says:

It's good that you relized that you had to stop UO but can't wait for your other stuff


Nov. 14, 2009 | 7:55 PM hankuzi says:

Have fun :( I was truly looking forward to Zelda UO9. But please post much more here on NG


Nov. 15, 2009 | 7:35 PM link5019 says:

*sniff sniff* cries!!! This cant happen it just can't. I feel like the zelda series just died. your flashes are the only thing that keeps the zelda alive between the games is this. and if nintendo messes zelda up any more it is going to be the end of zelda forever. this is the last zelda resort. if this dies then chances are zelda will die. the zelda wii, the next game on the wii has a chance a good chance of being in first person. i have a feeling zelda will die you have keep it going. this is not cool. please continue. can you finish the next episode first. and when you say years how many 2,3, 4 ,8. no i can't stand it zelda will not die if i have something to say about it. in fact i came up with a secret plan for zelda. it won't be out for several months but it will continue the series. don't ever give up on zelda uo. and if you can't finish it is it possible for you to let me take your spot for it untill you return. if its all right with you but if you can can you send the pictures or frames of them. i have a feeling of what would come next. but please just keep it alive but if you can't i can take the position if you let me please. this is what i have to say and it is all i will say. but take your time thinking it over about letting me take over.

Nov. 16, 2009 | 6:23 PM ScootLumpDude responds:

I'm not letting you take over.


Nov. 15, 2009 | 9:18 PM Ratita says:

Hey man, I think it's ok what you're doing =P, I mean, you can master your skills and therefore your work will be awesome! I can wait for your work =P (unless the world ends xD ... =S =P).
Ok, good luck =)
May a big mystical entity give you his/her blessings xD =P lol


Dec. 18, 2009 | 1:20 AM Uberlink says:

Dude don't sound so sad yeah its lame you had to put UO on hold (hopefully not forever) but you got a life and colledge maybe insted of working on the series you could work on getting a girlfriend sure people are sad but only and yes i'm talking to people who say shit about scoot YOU HAVE BUT ONE LIFE LIVE IT.
