Well that is likely the last you'll see of it. I am pretty sure the creator quit maybe due to not having many viewers.
That's not the impression I got from it. It just seemed like they were preparing it, or taking care of other stuff before going back to it.
Well it has been a year and a half before we ever heard from it so my doubt still stands.

About 3-4 years ago, there was a Kirby forum that I liked. I wanted a name, so I thought. I came up with "Dynablade", but figured it was taken. So, I replaced "blade" with "slash", and then...

Remember how I said my gamertag for xbox was DubiousDeicide?

I was thinking, along with the change in gaming outlook, if I should change it to DubiousRebirth.

I Just used my middle name. (UNINTERESTING!) But if I ever had to use a name other than my middle name, it would be Pyxis. I got that name because I heard it was Latin for Box, (also a galaxy) and everyone knows I just love boxes.

Pantera is one of my favourite bands and I've always been inspired by Dimebag Darrell (R.I.P). He would always wear this razor blade around his neck.

Pantera was Thrash Metal so therefore I named my nick on Youtube thrashbladerazor. And joining her I decided to cut short the name to thrasherblades.

Once again, R.I.P Dimebag.

Wulven is what I wanted to legally change my name to actually, but like it's become a nickname that I like most anyway other than being randomly called for example: Redback, Auslot and Wulf.

also just for kicks:

"Adzo" is an old pet name I had as a kid, an adaptation of my first name. my mother is the only person who still uses it. I started using it online many moons ago and it seems to work.
weirdly, Mum uses it far more now that I use it online despite my never using it in person, I wear a tag with "Adzo" on it so she may have seen that, or some of my drawings signed with "Adzo", but the sudden uptake of the name is odd.

ctcmjh originally refered to my name, and my junior high school: Cody Thompson Cougar Mountain Junior High. After going to High School, it changed in meaning to: Cody Thompson Cooking Maximillian July Husky. That list of words is my first name, my last name, my favorite hobby, my nickname, my birthmonth and my fursona. I consider changing it often.

I also occasionally go by Anonymous Neko. I chose that because of a certain site that calls the users Anonymous, and I love cats.

Probably? God of War. If he's cool? Tales of Symphonia.

Third possibility: the actual mythological figure after whom they're both named.

In all honesty I'm not really sure where I got "Dubiousity" from, I guess I liked it because it sounded cool.

usually Neko is taken so i just use Nekoyasha (japanese) everywhere, but i was happy to find that Neko was not taken ;]

so there i was, out in the field of a thousand dead, facing the dragon of darkness with nothing but cheddar cheese and a batman action figure! we fought ferociously for hours with no end in sight! but then, chuck norris came and kicked his bubblegum for me. and i asked him "how could i ever repay you?!" and he said "name your pet dog 'bud' as in short for 'budweiser'" and i said "ok!" and thats how my pet got his name.

oh, and Jack is the name of my fursona. :3

@ Neko: I always find it strange that Neko means cat person and you have an avatar of a dog.
