SuperFrog's not answering questions at the moment. He may again at sometime in the future. Why not ask him when he'll be running the
Ask SuperFrog section of the site again.... oh, wait.
SuperFrog, you're one of
my favourite characters of all time. When are you going to get your own
movie?

Believe it or not, there's
been a lot of interest. First, there was Quentin Tarantino who was going
to do a film called "Resevoir Frogs" starring me and my pals getting in
trouble with the law. But, the studios didn't like it so he changed the
name and replaced the principle cast with humans. That was a big disappointment.
George Lucas wanted to create a biographical film about my life at one
point, too, but he changed too many key aspects of it, for my liking (including
my name - he was going to call me "Frogwalker"). So, yeah, I've been trying
to see a movie made for a while now. Team17 are reluctant, though, which
tends to put directors off.
People say
that you've taken to making up questions, due to lack of feedback. This
can't be true, can it?

Quite the reverse in fact,
SurfGroper. My mail bags are so full with letters of Ask SuperFrog questions
that I've had to be selective about which ones I answer. I hate to disappoint
my fans, like that. But when you're as popular, as I am, it's inevitable.
Dear SuperFrog.
My football couch says that you're a fictional character and therefore
can't be real. What is your response to this?

Not real?!? Not real?!?
I wonder what can be considered real in your football coach's unenlightened
opinion! Not only do I have my own game, I've appeared in a couple of others
and have my own section devoted to answering fan's questions! I may not
have been seen out in public, much, but that's only because I have an acute
hatred of having my photograph taken. That and the fact that I've spent
many years pitching game ideas and such like to Team17 (with, sadly, little
success). Anyway, as Descartes said - "Cogito Ergo Sum" - I think, therefore
I am. And what more proof of my existence can there be?
[Edit by S-2k] Descartes? I always
thought that was Popeye the Sailor Man...
Is it SuperFrog
or SupperFrog?

SuperFrog. Though now that
you mention it, it's been a while since my last meal.
Are you a
frog? Or are you a worm in disguise? These days, with all the cheap pay
and terrible economy, frogs are hard and expensive to hire, so worms just
dress up.

A worm? A WORM!?! Do I
look like a Worm!?! I was busy making gaming history long before those
aggravating annelids, and yet do I get the fame? Do I get the glory? Do
I get the fancy limo or the spacious mansion? No! All I get is occasional
voice-over work and interviews about my past! Do you know where I live?
A bungalow in Manchester! Yes... you heard right! MANCHESTER! So, don't
talk to me about worms, and in the name of all that is good and honest...
DON'T call me a worm!
Just for the record - If a worm did
try to dress up as me, I'd punch the sucker in the mouth.

Why is the
sky pink?
Submitted
by Andy Holmes
The sky isn't pink. However,
there are a number of reasons why you may believe the sky is pink. They
run as follows:
- You're under the influence of some kind
of illegal substance causing you to hallucinate and believe the sky is
now pink.
- You're completely insane and thus, within
your warped mind, the sky is pink.
- You've confused the word 'pink' with
'blue'. I recommend purchasing a dictionary from your local stationary
shop.
- You have a problem with your eyes which
makes it easy for you to confuse various colours. This is one such instance.
- The sky is actually pink where you live.
This may be due to one of the following sub-reasons:
- a) You live in a
very old 8-colour game where the games creator decided that a blue wasn't
as essential as the other colours for their game and then had to make do
with colouring the sky a hideous shade of pink.
- b) You live in some other
fictional kingdom where pink sky is commonplace.
- c) It's the apocalypse.
The sky is pink because it's about to start raining fire and brimstone.
Anyway, problem solved. And if none
of the above theories are true then I expect you're just some kid trying
to wind me up.

Dear me, didn't you do
any simple arithmetic at your school? A child of five could answer such
a simple question. As for me, I'm above answering paltry maths queries.
Buy yourself a calculator and begone from my sight...
