[edit] wow

Throughout the game there are trees that seem to grow feet. If you look close, you may see some of these trees! ~ Environmentalist concerns were brought to the forefront when players realized they could set fire to the trees by jumping over them. It is unknown whether this was intended to cause an uproar or not. ~ One lesser known aspect of the game deals with the numerous tree stumps found around the slopes of SkiFree. Users have found that when skied over backwards they transform into a small spotty mushroom. It has been theorised that this points to a philosophical leaning in the nature of SkiFree's creator Chris Pirih. The mushrooms may illustrate an extrapolation of Plato's theory of ideas in which the physical form of something may not reveal its true identity and only its representation in our particular plane of existence.

a little far flung dont you think....

Someone should mention the dog taking a piss in the snow. Or the purplish person who cries when you run over them. Yeah, this game is great. JarlaxleArtemis 01:24, 20 May 2006 (UTC)

I second the far-flung observation.

Unfortunatly Wikipedia talk pages are only about the page itself, not the subject of the page. In short: no. --Ysangkok 13:46, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Skifree yeti.png

Image:Skifree yeti.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 06:01, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

I added rationale. --Ysangkok 13:45, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] robot vs yeti

Is the monster at the end a yeti, a robot, or a robot yeti? I dunno about any yeti having stick limbs like that. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.173.163.26 (talk) 16:45, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
