Ok prim,
In that case David can have the 200 minerals. > Whips out some ball like device about the size of a large orange > Taps a few things into the side of it with Happenstance > Puts away the device.
David they should appear in your account momentarily.

I don’t care for the cartoon violence. It is not the violence part or the cartoon aspect. It is how in the passage of events it is stated how the other person reacts. I understand and respect the style of writing. You could not have a full “story” if you had to wait for the other person to reply the way events flow in a face to face Role Playing Game.
Other than I just can’t grok that,
I spent far too many years being told what I was going to do and how I was going to react. Those days are over.

Whips Happenstance across the room > Watches as the hilt ricochets off the corner wall > catches it on its way back

For example: In your cartoon violence you could counter that and say it never reached the wall. Instead GT batted it out of the air and watched as it impaled RD in his miraculous happy sacks. Well, other than that would be a waste of Happenstance I would be unable to accept that I was contradicted or that someone spoke for me.
In short: I don’t play nicely with others unless they play by my rules. Guess what, there aren’t many who will. “No brag, Just fact”. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/shock.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/tongue.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

*Back from an accidentally-extended business trip to the southern parts of Germany, Dogscoff enters the Cantina in armoured lederhosen, comically clutching some kind of large sausage.

"Time for a little redecorating."

Within seconds, a swarm of genetically enhanced builder-crabs descend upon the cantina, ripping out fixtures and fittings around the very customers. No sooner is the room stripped bare than the industrious crustaceans begin to refit it to look like a genuine Bavarian beer hall, complete with wooden benches, big barrels 'o beer and a stein-swinging oompah band in the corner.

The Kylie clone waitresses and FBWs are sent away to change into their new, highly improbable, Oktoberfest-style bosom enhacing uniforms, and everyone is immediately served (and required to gulp down) two large steins of highly potent CantinaBrau.

Spotting a mysterious energy being sat in the centre of a group of admirers, Dogscoff sists himself at a table next to her, using the energy fields given off to charge his laptop.

All costs to be put on MM and Shrapnel's tabs, and that the party shall commence upon hmm, say on Thursday the 13th, in order that everyone shall see the invite. I also put to vote that GT, Gryphin, Dogscoff and Taz be put in charge of the refreshments and entertainment, David G to create a 100,000 Mural for the cantina wall over the bar,
Timstone to see that time stands still for the party, and Rags and Rd for bouncers..

lordy, but i have been away too long. Not having the patience to read back more than two pages, allow me to spew forth my meager mockery of wisdom regarding cartoon violence:

while it is frustrating when arbitrary actions couteract one's intentions, there are a few unspoken rules of cartoon violence, that are all too often violated.

Firstly, you should never contradict someones cartoon violence. If, for example, Puke smacked 'Scoff with a rolled up newspaper, Dogscoff would not then say "but el vomito actually missed." He would instead retort that "the newspaper was made from substandard stock, and desentigrates on impact, leaving puke unarmed while umpaloompas bludgeon him with large wooden spoons." Thus, cartoon violence becomes an excercise of wits, not pedantic he-said she-said.

secondly, out of respect for the first rule, people should avoid trumps, and ultimate unbeatable situations. things like "I retreat to my fallout shelter seconds before my tactical nuclear warhead vaporizes Dogscoff, who was without his radiation suit +2" should simply never be said.

thirdly, in order to avoid cartoon escelation and proliforation on a scale only containable by international cartoon disarmament treaties, people should aim for self deprication. if a battle is heating up, take the fall youself. describe the other person clocking you, instead of the other way around. that way, you get to go out with style, rather than settling for how they would have phrased it. next time, you will get to do it to them. no one really keeps score, the important thing is to have a funny punchline.

Lastly, Taz, pour me a Spaten from the tap. an Optimator, please. and a round of Belgian ale for the Oompah band, between sets.

That was Metallica; one of the greatest bands of all time. I'm surprised you got that mixed up. I thought for a second that maybe Megadeth did a remake of it but I cannot find any information pointing me in that direction.

Back to the party...

Some really annoying nerd looking kids hear the comoion over at the Cantina and they wonder over and see that a wile party is taking place. They walk up to the bouncers, RD and Rags, and ask if they can go in. RD replies, "No you may not, only if you are on the guest list." The kids act disappointed that they won't be enjoying this party from the inside but then they think of a plan to get in. They tell Rags and RD that they are related to that Taz looking feller's brothers wifes cousins from Albania and that they are visiting for the week. RD smiles and says, "Ok, you can go in." Rags and RD both continue their job outside as bouncers. Rags begins to think all of a sudden that hey, "Taz doesn't have a brother..." Rags says, he right away goes inside and finds those two nerdy looking kids and beat the living day lights out of them and throws them to Barry to handle them further.

Slayer's new ablum is quite enjoyable. Some friends of mine saw them tour for that album in an abandoned slaughter house in Lubboc, TX. The drummer was ill for the tour, so Dave Lombardo sat in. My god, to have had the opportunity to see Lombardo in concert. even if you do not enjoy fast/loud/violent music, you have to respect that man's tallents. He worked on a great fusion album combining the styles of Vivaldi, Handel, and.. well.. Lombardo.

Thanks for every thing.Regrettable to lose witty posters, it really is quite shameful how frequenting the Cantina (and the occasional OT political thread) forces one to debase ones self in order to communicate with the local riff-raff.

I know that one has to stoop pretty low to express ideas at my level, but most people just ignore me, rather than constraining themselves to debate at my sub-par level.

Great idea, GT. Lets all brag about V-day. I kicked my Last lovely to the curb, mere days before xmas. I spent most of the day thinking about calling up an awfully cute friend of mine, but decided that I would rather keep her as a friend, than abuse her as anything else. So I spent the evening on a pub crawl with a mate of mine in a futile effort to cheer up the single most reclusive bastard that I know. It didnt work.

[edit: reclusive = him, not i]

The closest I came to anything nearing romance, was raising a pint with some lonely thing who was drowning her sorrows at one of the taverns I crawled into.

but no regrets. while far from triumphant, I cant say that i had a bad time. My biggest concern, is that I now have something to live up to, lest I become a victim of Happenstance.

We don't celebrate Valentine's Day down here. That meant no cards for me (or for anyone else around here, either). We do have a similar date on Oct. 12th, when we give our Significant Other a gift.

This is as good a place as any to warn people about this:

If you get an e-mail saying that someone has sent you a valentine from "valentines-ecards.com", don't run the "card.exe that" that it asks you to download.

While technically not a virus, what the .exe does is install three spyware programs on your system, without asking for any permissions.

Hey peopel, I'm partially back, my system got a nasty worm and I lost everything, had to re-format my drive 2x to finally wipe it. Just a warnning, in cking it out, I found it is a fairly new worm, less then 3wks old, doesn't even have a name yet, it is designed to bypass firewalls and virus protection and it starts by very slowly eating files, starts with audio, hi-memory then drivers, It got all my drivers and hi-mem, spent hrs trying to repair but ended up having to re-format, no other way, it also would lock up the cd tray once in awhile, so be aware and make sure all virus updates are up to date. Its taken me days and many hrs just to get back here..... UGH http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon8.gif

Following Dogscoff's heroic is mistimed dive onto the glass and tribble wing scattered cantina floor, Growltigga attempts, in a vain hope to preserve life and limb of the cantina patrons, to change the "mood"

Kicking the prone Dogscoff as he goes passed, Growltigga nicks the Metallica and Pantera songsheets being played by the oompah band, and substitutes them for a Neil Sedaka medley....

The soothing sound of "Moon River" echoes across the cantina....

David Gervais, now I have had 12 hours to stop laughing, I can respond without collapsing on the keyboard.

"Elmer"? fantastic, be thankful that your parents didn't go for "Oliver" otherwise your initials would be "DOG"..

OK, it is unfair for me to poke fun at you. I have three middle names, of which one is a family name and one reflects the fact that I was born in the tail end of the 1960's and I am sure my mum was on some illegal pharmaceuticals...

Time to confess (as none of you will probably ever meet me), two of my middles names are "Horatio" and "Lysander". The other is the more normal "Bruce"..

Question 1 - what is this chatroom Mac was referring to? is there another cantina-esque forum I should be frequenting?

Question 2 - Ebay - can someone tell me why whenever I bid on something, irrespective of how high my max bid is or otherwise and how close to the end of the auction I log on, someone always beats me without fail. I have been trying tobuy a boardgame on ebay for about 2 months now and I have never yet one!!

I have been trying tobuy a boardgame on ebay for about 2 months now and I have never yet one!!The few times that I examined Ebay I noticed a strange thing,.. when people are bidding and the bids are too low (lower than the expected or target price) it appears that the 'Seller' has the right to enter a final bid to close the sale and in effect purchase it himself. If this is the case I'd say that the seller just wasn't satisfied with your bid and was unwilling to sell at the price you offered. Another possibility is that there are some pesty little buggers that get a real kick at stealing away final bids just to annoy the heck out of 'bidders' like yourself.

Just a few thoughts, and I believe that the first option is more likely!

February 19th, 2003, 03:13 PM

Mac, You are most Welcome!

GT, the 'chat' room is one of two places. First is IRC (SE4), the other is Yahoo. Both are live. It is fun.

About ebay; I have developed a pretty good way to acquire item's I want. Some 25, at Last count. 1) Find the item you want. Check the bidding history. If there 'have not' been any bids, don't make one, just track the item. 2) Wait until about 15 mins before the auction is about to go off. Re-check the bidding history. Notice if there have been repeat increases. This well be a tell if someone has placed a 'maximum bid'. And ebay is placing bid's for that user. 3) Now decide how much you are willing to bid. In 'Word Pad' (or whatever text editor you like) type in that amount. Now split the difference between 'your' top bid and the current bid. Bid that amount. Load a second browser window. Go the bid page. You are going to use this one to update the page. At the end of bidding, this is done every 5-10 'seconds'. OK, you are ready to kick *** on all those wanta bee bidder's. Using this method I have only lost out on 8 items I wanted. 3 went past what I was willing to pay, 4 never made the minimum bid required (this is what I think you have witnessed 'David') and one I lost to a bidder quicker than me. So, this system works, pretty good. Hope all this makes sense, and helps.

David, The few times that I examined Ebay I noticed a strange thing,. See my comment above!

Primitive, my father is ex-royal navy and I come from a family of seafarers so the Horatio I guess comes from that. I do like to think I am a bit of a salty sea-dog who likes to make people have a lick of the cat! Ahaa m'hearties, splice the mainbrace and call the cat a bastard

I am the first of my line to be a lawyer. My father is still getting over the shock. Lysander comes from a family name, all Tigga males have the name of an ancient Greek hero, my bro is "Achilles", my cousins have "Bellerophon", "Agamemnon" and "Ajax" and my 2 nephews have "Diomedes" and "Thucydides" (we were a bit worried about that one, I did suggest Jason or Hercules)

IRC=Internet Relay Chat - which is basically real time group typing-talk.

To participate, you'll need to install a new bit of software. It's a small download and pretty straightforward. I recommend a program called Trillian (http://www.ceruleanstudios.com/trillian/download.html) - plenty of ppl here use it - or you might want to use mIRC, which might be better for a beginner.

Am I the only lawyer on the forum? crikey..

Hey, I discovered a great new game late Last night (albeit after a bottle of wine).

We have just had a laminate floor put down throughout the ground floor of Chateau Growltigga. The builders have just finished so the rooms are bare and very echo-y indeed. Cue me drunk sweeping up some of the sawdust. I find little Tigga's (one of my cats) favourite toy, a walnut she chases round the floor. The other cat joins in and hey ho, "Cat Hockey" is born.

I get one point is I can get the walnut passed the cats to the french windows, they get one point is they stop it. No aerial shots allowed, you gotta push toe walnut toward the goal with a broom...

after 45 minutes of intense play, I admitted defeat, the final score 71-50

I play a kind of similar game with my cockatoo parrot.

I guess it could be called 'parrot soccer'.

I roll up a newpaper page into a ball and try to flick it past him into a goal.

He picks it up with his beak an flings it towards me.

He is accurate, quick and very funny as he dashes to pick it up and fling it back to me. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

Today I learned to pay more attention to my surroundings.

Went to the Gym for the regular Tusday Endurance (Bike/Spinning) session. Entered the room and I see a Cowboy hat besides the Instructors bike. Had I read the message board lately - no, did the hat make me wonder - nope, did I notice many of the regulars missing - not a chance, did I run screeming from the room - no way.
I just sit quietly down on my bike, minding my own business. Then the instructor comes inn, puts the hat on and says: Wellcome, today we have a special Country and Western theme. (We have these specal themes once in a while, but C&W http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon8.gif )

Its starts quietly with the Eagles Desperado as the first warmup tune, and then it gets progressively worse. 2 F..ing hours of pure hell. Any kind of concievable torture involving a banjo was put on that CD player. And even worse: during one song, two of the female arobics instructors (mighty fine looking tho) comes in and does a line-dance exibithion.

I will have nightmares about this for months to come.

aligned with a laser pointer or something. melt some salt so when it

the hole. Attach your bolt style electrodes into the cavity. So the
whole thing looks like a regular laser but bigger. Pump out the air,
backfill with co2 laser gas at 100-400 torrs. Hoist this thing on top
of tree. You have one electrode at ground and the other has magnet
wire the end of this magnet wire is a rocket from estes or something.

primitive hears the deplorable noise coming from the sound system.The gruefull Gryphin is standing next to the systems, howling out threats of the Cantina blowing up if the system is turned off. Since GT is not around to blow the horn, primitive takes it on himself to restore a proper audio-enviroment . He grips his rusty (yet pointy) spear and embeds it deep into in Gryphins body, at the place where most beeings dont let the sun shine (There will be a long time before the Gryphin ever can assume his famous position again). primitive then carries a screaming Gryphin outside like a lollipop and deposits him with Barry at the parkinglot for safekeeping.

primitive enters the now desertet Cantina. He goes over to the soundsystem and places his finger on the button.

Well, there are about 6 pages of discussion attached to that link, and none of the people taking part said "This is utter nonsense, it will never work", although the design and it's limits are tweaked. By the end they are talking about using it to inscribe a logo on the moon=-)

For one thing, they decided it would be easier to get a lightning strike by sending up a small rocket, trailing a conductive wire.

Dogscoff's troUsers become tighter and shiner and his hair grows into some kind of gigantic girlie metal-mullett. Suddenly he leaps up, produces one of those triangular 'leccy guitars and starts prancing up and down the Cantina, shaking his stupid hair while squawking tepid metal hits from "artists" like Europe and Bon Jovi. Only after 6 songs, when he is in the middle of an angsty "rock ballad", does he summon the resistance to utter "kill me now"

Fortunately, Dogscoff has been immortalized, his stylish locks have been seized upon as the height of fashion by men around the world (as well as a few women). The mullet became the symbol of Dogscoff’s ball licking greatness and a web site was created to idolize the somewhat disturbing descendants of the Great One’s coiffure. For those with strong stomachs, may I present Mullets Galore, a tribute to the DS Style. May I suggest the classifications as a good starting point, as it shows 100 distinct styles of mullets, witnessing the greatness of Dogscoff’s taste and vision.

Another normal, peacefu day in the Cantina- the regulars can be seen scatterd about the room, drinking, chatting and leering over the FBWs. A few escapee tribbles scamper across the floor, hotly pursued by a cleaver-wielding Taz, and 'Tig is sat at a corner table counting Last week's takings while two FBWs massage his executive stresses away. There's a guy in the corner juggling live neutron grenades and wafting in from outside is the distant yet unmistakable sound of a traffic warden being messily devoured by a T-Rex in a tuxedo.

Suddenly, the lights go out. A chill wind bLasts through the Cantina and all the furniture begins to rattle. 'Tigga's fur stands on end and glasses all around the room explode spontaneously. Just then, blood starts dripping from the cracks in the ceiling and doorframes, forming itself into letters to spell out a message from beyond the grave...

"That bloody hurt."

The lights come back on, the jukebox restarts and everything appears eerily normal again. Suddenly, the undead manifestation starts again, and another message appears on the wall below the first:

"Oh, Taz, pour me a pint of the usual will you?"

Still communicating by the means of blood-daubed Messages on the walls, Dogscoff expresses to Mlmbd a desire to be resurrected, but only if the ritual involved is lengthy, convoluted, arcane and requires loads and loads of grisly blood sacrifices.

In the meantime, he takes full advantage of his new ectoplasmic status by playing poltergeist-like pranks, for example moving Mac's chair just before he sits down and swapping Primitive's glass of beer for one full of wee. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

Then he realises he has the power to take possession of mortal souls and promptly jumps into one of the FBWs with the intention of "taking her for a spin". http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/shock.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon6.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

One advantage with living the primitive lifestyle is an impeccable sense of smell.
Primitive sends the bad beer back and orders a replacement.

Running his fingers over the runes on his rusty (yet pointy) spear he ponders the wisest course of action. The rune of resurrection will bring back Dogscoff in a sec, but the lack of blood and gore may make him somewhat bad-tempered. No, better to leave the resurrection to mlmbd.

But primitive can do something about the touchiness of the big dog. Drawing the rune of emasculation instead, primitive makes sure the resurrected Dogscoff will be more amendable.

1 Chair, Used

mlmbd, rechecks his list against the assembled items. Yep, that will do it. He remarks to himself. OK, dogscoff! We are ready to begin. mlmbd, exclaims *

*mlmbd, starts placing items here and there to make everything ready. One Very Large Clay Bowl right here. The other Very Large Clay Bowl right here. 1 Extremely Large Tandori Oven right here. mlmbd, then places 1 large piece of Hickory in each of the Very Large Clay Bowls. Places the other large piece of Hickory in the Extremely Large Tandori Oven. GOOD!
Now, taking several pieces of the New York Times. Wads them up. Placing the wads of the New York Times in each one of the Very Large Clay Bowls. And, the remainder in the Extremely Large Tandori Oven. He also places the 2 Large potatoes in each of the Very Large Clay Bowls. Alright then!

Next mlmbd takes the small Clay Bowl (New), placing in to it; the 6 Large Garlic Cloves, 1 Large Bay Leaf, 3 Very Large Italian funguses and empties the 1 bottle of stale Guinness Stout (that is atleast half full) into the small Clay Bowl (New). Opens the Small Unopened bottle of Extra Virgin Olive Oil and the Unopened bottle of A-1 Steak Sauce. Pours half the contents of Extra Virgin Olive Oil the into the small Clay Bowl (New). Takes the Very Used Scottish Dirk; ceremonial Athame and stirs the contents of the small Clay Bowl (New). He then opens the Unopened bottle Guinness Stout (slightly chilled). Taking a very large swallow; mlmbd mentions; almost done! Whew, taking another drink of the 'Now' opened bottle Guinness Stout (slightly chilled).

mlmbd takes several of the Wooden Matches from the table. Lighting all the candles. First; the Red Candle (New) next the Blue Candle (New). And then the 2 White Candles. Places the Red Candle (New), Blue Candle (New) and the White Candle (new) in the middle of the 2 Very Large Clay Bowls and the Extremely Large Tandori Oven. Sprinkels the remains of 6 doz 'once' used sticks of sandlewood incense, in a circle around the candles. * Whispering some words of mystic origin, until the circle around the candles is complete. * mlmbd then lights the wads of the New York Times, he placed in the Very Large Clay Bowls and the Extremely Large Tandori Oven. The Large pieces Hickory catch fire, easily. mlmbd then put 1 of Very Large Italian funguses into the Extremely Large Tandori Oven. And 1 Very Large Italian fungus into eac of the 2 Very Large Clay Bowls.

mlmbd then balances the Large Tanzinite crystal and the Vampire/Vampyre fang (stightly used) between the 3 candles. Whispering a few more words of mystic origin. Until the Large Tanzinite crystal is balanced! Just a few more minutes, dogscoff; mlmbd mentions. He then ties the Prang Virgin (only slghtly used) to the Large Table. mlmbd grabs the 2 1/2 inches thick Porterhouse steak (not weighting less than 32 oz) and puts it in the small Clay Bowl (New).

mlmbd throws the Large, very smelly piece of White clouds ear fungus and the 14 doz half eaten shoestring potatoes, into the Extremely Large Tandori Oven. The Live 11 small (put not cute) bunnies....er....rabbits follow after the 14 doz half eaten shoestring potatoes. Slaps the 2 1/2 inches thick Porterhouse steak (not weighting less than 32 oz) onto the side of the Extremely Large Tandori Oven. *the meat sizzles with the heat supplied by the ovens exterior and interior* Grabing the Large Parang ((a sword from the Trojan era on Earth) which is a touch rusty), mlmbd swings (shouting some words of mystic origin) ; in a single blow, the first (ceremonial and Unused) Goats head falls to the floor. Then the second blow. The second (ceremonial and Unused) Goats head falls to the floor the blood spurts everywhere spattering onto the Prang Virgin (only slghtly used), the Large Tanzinite crystal, the Vampire/Vampyre fang (stightly used), the 3 candles they are balanced between, the Very Large Clay Bowls, the Extremely Large Tandori Oven and anything or anyone standing close.

mlmbd, tosses the goats heads and thier bodies into the Extremely Large Tandori Oven. Takes the 4 Large potatoes, 3 Very Large Italian funguses and the 2 1/2 inches thick Porterhouse steak (not weighting less than 32 oz) to the table. Where he puts the softened stick of unsalted (but not sweet) butter on the 4 Large potatoes. Poor a liberal amount of A-1 Steak Sauce on the Porterhouse steak. Opens the Last bottle of Unopened and slightly chilled Guinness Stout into the Druid's Silver Goblet. Unties the Prang Virgin (only slghtly used). Suggesting carnal things they will partake of a bit later. Lights the remaining White Candle. Then takes a seat. In the used Chair. THERE! It is done! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

*The undead Dogscoff has found the drink left for him by Taz, and has lifted it into the air, trying to figure out exactly how to drink it without a body. As Mlmbd's appropriately convoluted and blood-drenched ritual draws to a close, the spirit of Dogscoff is suddenly pulled into the oven that was central to the proceedings, and he immediately awakes in a living, human form. He quickly checks that his tackle is all there (despite Primitive's curse- I guess that's what the second goat was for) and then realises that he's in an oven and that it's bloody hot. He leaps out of the oven and runs to the bar, neatly catching the drink that his own spirit-form had just dropped from the ceiling. He downs half the drink, then pours the rest over his head to extinguish any smouldering bits.

*Dogscoff immediately thanks Mlmbd by buying him a drink from each and every pump, barrel and bottle behind the bar. He lines them all up in front of the master of voodoo barbeque and sits down to order himself a snack.

The clones bring much joy and pleasure to the patrons of the Cantina, as they watch the show on closed circuit television. GT on the other hand does not seem to enjoy his selection of Freddie Mecury clones.

HEY GT, try the "Gryphin Position or CTW", he yells at the monitor as he sits back with his usual brewski, Mac was going to order his usual breakfast but the indecent, disgusting, exhibition on the Monitor is to much for one's inner anatamy to handle during breakfast http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/shock.gif

Au contraire Mr Primitive, Growltigga has always been one to strip down to the spandex leotard, don large furry moustache and sing "We will Rock You" with the best of them....

Using Brian May as a battering ram, Growltigga and the Freddie Mercury clones escape from Primitive's locked room, they charge into the cantina and grab the musclebound Fairy Boy from the Fjords.

He carry him upstairs to the "other" locked room and chuck him in. Freddie Mercury clones attach chains and padlocks to the door and arc weld it shut.

Primitive looks up, standing in front of him are about a dozen Jimmy Somerville clones, 4 Dana International clones, a few Will Young clones and a couple of Marc Almond clones, all clutching muscle rub and drooling at Primitive's physique

Primitive, I wouldn't expect you to know this but a gentlemen ALWAYS hunts mounted. There is a distinct lack of horses in the cantina, so Barry is the next best thing (well, 12 tons of vicious tuxedo clad T-Rex is hard to argue with).

Barry is also by his very nature a carnivore and a predator, and therefore is happiest chasing down things to rip apart and devour. I need a mount to hunt with, he needs to hunt. Perfect match really.

A gentlemen also must always take good care of his pets, ensuring that they are well fed and get lots of exercise to keep them in tip top condition.

I take that duty seriously so Barry gets exercised as often as I can find a victim, I mean, reason and I do do my best with the FBW's

March 8th, 2003, 02:45 AM

*a defiant rumble can be heard throughout the cantina as clouds begin to darken and thunder crackles from above. Dogscoff can be heard howling at the moon, most likely because an fbw has just offered to blow his horn and a bright light can be seen heading towards the cantina...

Ragnarok wanders outside, the wind blows fiercely and he looks up to the swirling storm above him, suddenly he realises what it is. 2 bursts of light split from the glow and head towards ragnarok, promptly blowing him up and landing him on the other side of the cantina, into a waste disposal unit next to the entrance. The glow begins to cool down and then it all becomes clear. Raging Deadstar has returned, just when ragnarok thought he could get some relaxation his nemesis comes hutning. The gigantic dreadnought lands in the parking lot and RD Climbs out, makes sure his crosshair contacts are in place and wanders into the cantina, dropping a couple of macs old colstomy bags into the bin for good measure, ragnarok will trully be grateful*

*He opens the door and his trench coat blows in the now settling wind. He is flanked my strangely two overweight yodelling belgians in lederhosen with chocolate round there mouths and chest hair sticking from their tops. He wanders in and sits down at his usual table, orders a nice apple juice, then gets up, pulls out his baguette and asks taz for the most flammable drink he has, taz passes this and RD Soaks the baguette with it and lights it, strides off to the inner sanctum with purpose and closes the door, moments later abdul the villager comes running out as a ball of flame, Raging Deadstar takes aim, swings the baguette and abdul lands in the bin ragnarok is sitting in, leaving the 90% alchohol colostomny bags to ignite leaving a fowl smell around the cantina...*

I've been lurking guys and studying the physics of The gryphin position, i tell you the ammount of practical involved in that is amazing. Looks like i'm in time to lend my two belgian bodyguards to GT, after all i am now Evil Supreme Overlord of Belgium now, and i look forward to watching primitive meeting the red hot poker cannon! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

March 9th, 2003, 02:56 AM

Well Mlmbd it was a long pain staking process

My friend (Whom is called Frosty) and i aquired a lot of money if we were to take certain lessons in higher education, using this money we opened a business selling off old prostitutes and hookers to poor countries as wifes. Since people in these poor countries don't really have the most attractive women they jumped at the chance, giving us, stock options, houses, money and many other assets. We sold these and invested in every gold mine in the world, eventually becoming majority shareholders in every gold mine. Then we embezzled all the gold in the world making it extremely expensive, we sold all our stocks, then we sold all the gold for hugely inflated prices leaving us with billions http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif Investing these billions into a lichenstein bank account the interest grew through the roof!

We then bought a couple of nucler warheads and constructed a flying city, powered of course by quantum reactors and quantum engines keeping it in the air http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif We installed some tachyon projection cannons and point defense cannons and laughed evily as we held a country i cannot disclose hostage!

Secretly the world leaders agreed to make us rulers of the world, but didn't disclose this information to the world. So for being Frosty's lackey and scape goat i was allowed to pick any country i wanted. I picked Belgium! If you've read Hitch Hikers guide to the galaxy you'll understand! Then i also gained control of luxembourg and put everyone who's annoyed me over the year and they live their happily, except for the fact every sunday night at 3am i get them to line up and launch capitol ship missiles at them!

Now i have an army of Yodelling overweight yodelling belgians with synthetic chest hair in lederhosen ready at my command!

Hmmmm, Growltigga suspects the Evil Overlord of Belgium is not on the level

Let's apply some logical thinking here.

"Yodelling" - originally developed as a method of communicating in mountainous regions

"Leiderhosen" - originally developed as practical leatherware for mountaineers

"Belgium" - renowned for its chocolates, beer and being flat (the Ardennes is hardly mountainous)

Therefore

Yodelling, leiderhosen wearing Belgians??

I think not..

Now I know that Raging Deadstar comes from Carlisle and is therefore the end product of generations of inbreeding and sheep molesting but surely even he would get this right??

Growltigga marshalls the Byzantine horde and Abdul and his berber army and jumps on Raging Deadstar to give him a good kicking

My language skills is obviously substandard. When I read “Grab” and “Mount” in conjunction with a hapless animal, my inner eye sees an image of a New Zealander with a sheep, not a stiff lipped Englishman riding a horse. My mistake.

Primitive, no, you are partly right there, if you see references to Englishman and sheep where said Englishman is from Cumbria, or is Welsh, then you are probably right.

It is a bit like Norwegians and penguins, or maybe seals if the seal is placid enough.

Stonemill, Ali G is really rather amusing, albeit he can get a bit tiresome after a couple of hours.

He is basically this white bloke who thinks he is a gangsta rapper, and talks in a funny way (he is actually a wealthy Jewish chap who acts like a thick white kid who thinks he is a gansta rapper).

He is famous for a couple of cool lines, such as "Aiiiiiiiii" and "Boyakasha", which are actually funnier than they appear written down (honestly).

Watch it, it can be quite amusing, if only if Amercican TV shows the episode where he went to the Hot D'or awards in Cannes (that is like the porno oscars to me and you, categories like "Best Group", "Best Girl on Girl", "Best S&M", "Best use of aid")

He used to be really funny before he got famous. Now he's become the thing he used to be a paradoy of.

The character was originally created/ used to wind up important people in spoof interviews. For example, he's interviewing one of the country's top military people (for real, except the interviewee doesn't know it's a wind-up) and will ask questions like:
"So, if you want to get into the army, right, does it 'elp if already killed someone? 'coz my mate Kenny, right..."

or when interviewing a very old and respected judge:
"So, when is it ok to shoot someone?"
"It's never ok to shoot someone. That's against the law"
"Yeah, but what if he calls your mum a slag?"

ANd so on...

*Tuts to himself as Growltigger tries to look intellectual and smart after disproving the belgian army, when really he'd lose a game of scrabble with a toddler*

Well you see Growltigger, think about the IRONY for a second, they come from a flat land yet wear and act like they come from a mountainous country, i mean it obviosully confused you for a couple of minutes, thusly sparing me vaulable seconds to launch that all important first attack! Also they eat so much chocolate i have to send them on long treks over mountains for exercise, yodelling is one of most god awful noises on the planet, maybe second to country and western, or perhaps just less worse than the cheeky girls! Also i prefer the old method of mail, sending my belgian post carriers to dispatch Messages so they do have to be aquipped with the proper gear. All these factors combined point to the reason why the travel in leiderhosen, yodell and generally act as they do

Now once you've got off barry and stopped trying to act all high and mighty and the expense of others and being narrow minded and perhaps to some extent narcissistic we can get to the rest of your post!

As for inbreeding i have no idea, could explain a lot about my family, but as for sheep molestering i'm pretty sure there ain't any sheep where i live, probably because there are rumours of giant married cats in the area, who like to have sheep molestered by mongoose hordes and have a fondness for red hot pokers (hey i never said sheep have to enjoy the molestering!)

Maybe i'm just in a mood, i did have a total nervous breakdown today, or maybe you're the only person around to feel my venom, sorry if any of this offends you GT, but i'm sure you love yourself way to much for this to affect you, are you related to Cat from red dwarf? there seems to be a striking resemblance between you two....

Well i step forth and accept the chase to begin, but at least i have made my unrepentant defense and will take my punishment as a man
