Yes, I suppose everyone has to have their off-weeks... But for the future, do you have any thoughts about why this one isn't as funny? I mean, like, maybe you could compare it to one you did like better (exluding, of course, last week's special edition)...?

Best splicky mission I've seen! I absoluetly loved it the moment you showed the draft to me, even better now. The bubbles down at the bottom are amazingly funny. Keep up the good work.

Thank you for your input! From my point of view, however... The missions have always been simple (for instance, there was "Pour a glass of water,""Drink your glass of water,""Drop the empty orb--NOT THE BOMB--down the tube," etc...) - that's been part of the whole joke. I'm not sure I see what the difference here is... (I don't want to seem defensive or anything, I just seem to be missing your point a little...)
Also, I thought it would be better for you to be able to use your imagination with the two off the screen. Like with This one, I wasn't really breaking my guidelines against laziness because their were at least five other splickies in the picture. Again, I don't want to be defensive. So please, maybe you could further explain with what you mean by "lame"...?

I think this is an okay Splicky Mission, and some parts are stinking hilarious (one balancing his stick, the 'Statue of Splickerty'). However, I think that it would be better if you could see the one nailing his pieces together (the mission looked kinda empty with so few contestants in frame )
I love the one trying to balance the stick. And I think the guys off screen are really funny. I think the judge bit is kinda interesting too. We're seeing a little more than we usually do of what actually goes on behind a Splicky Mission!

Perhaps... This time it was slightly more necessary, because it was impractical to describe the order in which they needed to put it in the actual "Today's Splicky Mission:". Besides, it provided a bit more humor, maybe.

Wow...
The little judge/{staff member} was a classic touch to the old original Splicky Missions sketches...
Those things are from years ago...

No offense, but this one wasn't your best.
I do like the one trying to balance the pointy stick!

The Statue of Splickerty
I love it, QZ! These guys never fail to amuse me, no matter what they're doing.
Dude, you've just nailed them together.
Yeah, so they'll stay.
In the wrong order?
...Here, I'll turn them over.
Gee, that might work.
