I hadn't noticed the flamethrower in your avatar before, and merely spoke of your avatar in general, nuclear bLast included.

Hmm, the Fiends have magic weapons. Annoying that. Thanks for mentioning that, though you should not give "your" PDF too many ideas. *Coughs* Well, I will be playing in the game where he will toy with Mictlan, so.

Oh, and I can only concur with your comment regarding Languages and small misinterpretations. One of our fellow countrymen innocently asking for a "douche" would certainly face an odd reaction. (A "douche" in French merely means a shower, which is not quite the same meaning as in English) But I am digressing once more.

I have but an advice: take at least a level 7 dominions. The chance of rising your dominions by blood sacrifice is tied to your current dominions. If you take a too small dominions, you will waste vast quantities of blood. Starting at 7, you can reasonably move to 9 or even 10, and you will see a world in variation.

PDF, your honnor command you to not take a VQ or GK. Thats would not be fair against the newbs.

Now that I think of it, you dont have any honnor

Hmmm, I said (basically) "throwing flames at me isn't likely to raise my temperature". If I'm the nuclear bLast, the flamethrower is in the other guy's hands.

Heh... even funnier, this can also happen among people using the same language. Eg, never say "Tiens, je vais vous montrer une photo de mes gosses" to a Québequois.

I see; at long Last, I got that comment about your temperature and your avatar. Slow? Who, moi?

Thanks for the warning about the "gosses" in Quebec; that was one I didn't know of, though I do not have any child, so I wouldn't have used the phrase to begin with. Still, that would be a classic case of misunderstanding at best.

Maybe not, but you could still say something like "J'aime bien vos gosses", which wouldn't be better...
