Who let the dogs out?

[dogscoff]

Just looked at the "who's Online" bit...

Dogscoff
Dogberry
Crazy_Dog

Any other canines about?

*woof*

[Growltigga]

Hmmm.. I always said this forum was going to the dogs http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

cant see any more dogs but there is a tigga sitting up a tree!

[Gryphin]

I have to admit I like katz.
What is that ALF used to say? "Preferably stir fryed"
Now, Gryhpins being 1/2 Lion, I do have to be careful but apparently there is enough genetic differance that is is not canablistic. Besides, everyone knows Lions are superior to tiggas.`
Edit: I wonder what it would be like to swoop down on a hapless tigga cub.

Gryphin, you are venting hot methane from your backside with that remark. TIgers are the largest of the cat species and certainly the most vicious.

And as for swooping down on a hapless tigga cub?... hmmm, you would find out rapidly that either (a) he gets his catty ack ack battery ready and blows you out of the sky (watch out for tiggas manning patriot batteries) or (b) he waits to you get close, pulls your wings off and then proceeds to varnish the floor with your intestines.

Either way, the kentucky fried gryphins ends up as purina cat-chow

Empire: Papillons
Empire Type: Dogma
Test file: needed
Ship Set: needed

Biological Description

Originally a highly intelligent, playful and social breed of canniness that were also small and fragile. They were genetically enhanced with an opposable claw, vocal cords, high intelligence and the ability to breadtrue.
The Papillons mate and breed normally among themselves. A mating with another breed produces a clone litter. The clone litters have an ESP connection that gives an tremendous advantage in battle. There are rare occasions when the cloning is flawed and adds variety, such as the Big Dog bloodline. Being part Irish Setter and part German shepard, this bloodline is bent on getting drunk and taking over the universe.
A male pappies family service Lasts 5 years, after which they volunteer for military service and battle. It is said that this is due to their
females being real *****es. Females are not included in open diplomatic talks but play a significant role in the shadows.

Sociological Description

Big Dog rules. The high priest "Masters Voice" has the power of influence. The planning is done by the FORUM of 4x game players that are
never told of the very real nature of the game. The FORUM is an imitation of "Masters" malpractice of democracy. The Papillons development has been unleashed by their dogmatic search for the ancient race of "Masters", where ever they moved. "By their scent you shall know them" is their dogma.

General History

The Papillons believe they were gifted by a race they call the "Masters". They first found ruins of this advanced civilization when they explored
the nearby Hedgehog Isles. Later when exploring Rabbit Continent they found the artificial cavern of engraved glass blocks containing much of the Masters knowledge and history. They have used this knowledge to embark on a long walk to rejoin the Masters.

next: The "Heretic" hound and the forbiden Chronicles from the Fall of Man.

Ummm, did you ever read Papillon?

(shudder!)

[TerranC]

If you are talking about the Famous french criminal that escaped out of French Guiana, No, but I've seen the movie.

If you are talking about something else, No.

[dogscoff]

dogscoff, are you Sirius?
<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Actually I'm a Virgo.


Will you accept Gryphins? I'm in.
<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">You're just looking for an opportunity to bash 'Tig, aren't you?

{Short pause}

Ok, you're in.

[Growltigga]

No worries, cats are cool, cats are great, I'll take you all on, I've got nine lives anyhow and you lot are just going to the dogs

PS it also seems that I am also taking on anyone will stupid facial hair as well

PPS Dogscoff, I assume that your 'I am a virgo' remark was an attenmpt to be amusing to Gryph's response

[ May 22, 2002, 13:05: Message edited by: Growltigga ]

[Gryphin]

GT: It was funny.

dogscoff, Is it safe to have two virgos in the same game?

Yes I want to bash Tig, and all of his 9 lives

[Growltigga]

Gryphin, maybe it was funny to someone who has just come out of 5 years total sensory deprivation... me? I have a sense of humour

There will be 3 virgos in the game as I am one to.

Gryphin, bash me all you want, I am still waiting

[dogscoff]

*Dogscoff sinks his face into his hands and begins to sob as he realises what he's done

... I've turned my thread into another arena for GT and Gryphin's macho-furry posturing ....

N0000000OOOOOOOOooooooooo!!!!!

[Growltigga]

Yep, you can always rely on El Scoffo to cock up big time!! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Why is it so many of you have canine-related handles on this thread? are you all dog lovers? are you all members of the kennel club? are you all dogs?

I suspect some or all of you just have a lot of canine traits you relate with such as:

1 slobbering
2 scratching
3 barking annoyingly
4 rolling in cowpats
5 licking your own genitalia

[ May 22, 2002, 13:25: Message edited by: Growltigga ]

[Fyron]

5 licking your own genitalia<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">That would require a tremendous amount of flexibility.

[Wardad]

did you ever see the Star Trek episode, The Trouble with Tiggas ?

[Growltigga]

Wardad, it was called the trouble with tribbles and if you are suggesting that I am a small ball of pink fluff that reproduces rapidly, well... when I next go to Pheonix, you will be in trouble

[Wardad]

Just don't threaten to kiss me again. please no, not that!!!

[Growltigga]

Wardad, you have as much chance for me tonguing it withyou as you do waking up with Britney Spears

Tsaarx, you are dead right but cats do it out of necessity, not because they obviously take such relish in doing so

[Wardad]

Did I get the Last word in? Has the bugger gone to sleep yet. I bet he shakes his leg while dreaming about chasing mice. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/tongue.gif

[dogscoff]

I'm tempted to start "Dogs of War" a game on PBW, only open to ppl with animal- related handles.

We could form the League of Dog- Aligned Worlds and gang up on GrowlTigga. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

Would anyone be interested?

[Gryphin]

[Taera]

Thats a funny thread.
To add to the minority, im also a cat lover.

DOnt mind me, go on. Funny thread http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

HEY!!
I've got an idea!

How about you all creating a mod of cats VS dogs?
Planets would be of three types - kennels [for dogs], baskets/paper boxes [for cats], and something third, say trees for the birds.

Asteroids would be Trash Piles.
Warp-points will be Roads (cross the road) and damaging warp-points would be Highways.
Have no idea for suns.

Mines would be... guess, what do cats and dogs and birds leave behind to "trap" the area? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif
Fighters would be fleas.

Troops... no idea, perharps smaller dogs/cats/birds?

And so on. This would make realy interesting and innovative mod.
People, im serious!

[Growltigga]

Taera, that is probably one of the stupidest ideas I have ever heard. Have you been mainlinging gefilte fish or something?

Anyhow, I like it - I think the third race would have to be Rabbits rather than Birds.

Wardad, when my leg moves when I am sleeping, I am not dreaming of chasing mice, I am dreaming of dancing with Carmen Miranda

[Taera]

So stupid idea you say? maybe. But wouldnt it be nice to have a "fleet" of tigers attacking a "fleet" of bulldogs? or visa versa

[Growltigga]

Yeah, I think that is where we are going.

The problem is, there are lots of people on this forum who are 'doggy' (see my 5 criteria earlier on) and obviously send too much time with their noses near each other's behinds

I am the only 'Cat' on the thread. The only ally I have ever had has been a Duck.. and he seems to have disappeared

[Alpha Kodiak]

It is clear that the only hope for this thread is for the bears to clean it up! Cats and dogs, good grief! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/rolleyes.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/tongue.gif

[Wardad]

Papillon is a tiny french pufta breed. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/shock.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/shock.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/shock.gif

http://www.papillonclub.org/index.htm

It took a lot of imagination to turn my wife's dog into the scorge of the universe. They would obviously need weapons and tactics. Of course they could breed enough tigga fodder to overcome the mightyest of beasts.

[Growltigga]

Wardad, thank you so much for sharing that wonderful piece of informative information.

"fun..beauty..brains..the best of all worlds!" - what the hucking fell is that meant to be all about?

[Wardad]

I guess its because they are almost a cat.

Soft hair, sleeps in your lap, and the adults are playful as a kitten. But, don't even think of saying or spelling W A L K.

Mine caught a cat once, and just stood there, doing nothing and staring at me.

[Lupusman]

I'm not trained, but I think I could be included too.
