When there is a dry spell for freezing(like now)

What do you guys do to get your fix?

Watch clips? Look at pics? Hypnosis?

'Cast the net wider' is a good approach:

* Link and Ye may find. Most of the freeze sites (including this one) have a goodly number of linked sites. Have you checked them all out? Have you looked at the linked site's linked sites?

* Check out Yahoo Groups. There are quite a few with freeze-related themes or images, and they have pages of links, too.

* Google is your friend. I occasionally seach for 'freeze modeling' 'living statue' 'mannequin' and 'waxwork' in both the text and image sections. Same thing goes for the usenet groups, of course, but the hit ratio is lower.

* Review the Medusa Chronicles (www.frozen-moments.org/chronicles/) which has new story segments appearing quite often.

* Look for related sites that seem like they might contain freeze material despite no cues for them (comics, anime, old SF shows).

* Dust off the archives. A lot of the good material I find gets lost at the bottom of a big file folder or on a backup disk. Time's right to see if those can still be retrieved.

* Produce your own. Either by manips, imaging, writing or whatever. Adding to the genre is a sure-fire way of seeing new material.

* Dream. I had a doozy last nite about *finally* seeing living mannequins in an exotic-looking city (probably Tokyo) but there were scads of them and there wasn't enough time to picture them all. This could end up as a story, of course.

Yeah; it's been quiet of late....

At Amazon.com they have the "search inside this book" feature for "Freeze Tag" by Caroline Cooney. You can read it 5 pages at a time if you search for a word like "the" that appears on every page. It's a "young adult" novel but still nice classic freezing book. It's got a few scenes that are worth your time to check out.

What are some of the highlights of the book?

Ce'brill · Guest

The premise is, this girl who is neglected by her family can freeze other people by touching them, and tries to steal the main character's boyfriend. There are a few random freezings, a good one in the prologue, and a great one involving the main character and the boyfriend getting frozen while making out in the truck (around page 60). Great descriptions, esp. if you like the more sinister stuff

And it turns out there IS a limit to the number of page views you can do Sad

If someone wants to type up some highlights I'll post them on my list, but it hasn't been a high priority for me since it is readily available. It's only $5, buy the book. I have it, but I haven't read it yet. Sounds like it's better than I had expected.

Last night in Arlinton,Texas the "Amazing Boris",a hypnotist, played at a local comedy club. Several times the subjects were frozen while interacting in the audience. One girl was statuefied a few feet away in mid action. Each time Boris would encourage people to walk up and interact with their frozen bodies and try to see if they react. Well, they didnt. people were touching them and waving their hands to no avail, instant hypno statues. Pretty cool stuff.

Whenever I need some to see some freeze action, I load up a game and use a character that can do it! My current fix is Dynesty Warriors 4 for PS2. With a level 3 Ice Orb and a level full of women generals (and their lady guards), it's gonna get quite cold quite fast!

This appears to be one of them times now.

Things have been really dry lately.

Tell me about it. I'm walking the halls of Blockbusters and other rental places looking for movies or games that might give me something new to work with. I already rented Mannaquin 1 and 2.

I picked up Unreal Tournament 2004 a couple weeks ago, and like its predecessors it has a cheat code where in a single player game you can freeze time for everything but yourself. You can't do all that much with it, though you can still move around and admire the rockets frozen in mid-flight and the computer controlled players paused in the middle of some acrobatic stunt. Start a botmatch with all female opponents and you can go nuts. And if you look on the Net, there are Freeze Tag mods where you ice your opponent rather than kill, but those aren't official and the quality varies.

Yeah, you can do that in the other versions as well. Problem is sometimes its just an animation loop, so a person could be running in place, or in camping position and occasionally look around. Still, you take what you can get.

You can also do a similar move in the latest two Jedi Knight games (Outcast and Academy) in which people stop and stand in neutral poses, unless they have light sabers are were looking up or down, in which case there will be a slight variance. While I don't know about UT, you can spawn NPCs so even in levels without women you can add them in.
