For the record, Rob, I have maybe ten posts in the "Corrupt a Wish" thread. The rest are you, Zer Terron(sp?) and Psych, with Kaja mixed in liberally with a few other members. I voted for Mad, just because he still holds the largest post count ever, even though he hasn't been around too much lately... That and I wanted somebody else to have the title of Biggest Spammer so that I didn't have to bear it anymore. I really have been trying to get better about my post rates... Really!

I didn't feel like reading the whole story, JH. That's just... odd. You would be hard-pressed to find a thirteen-year-old that stupid nowadays. Fresh Randomness Read it, dammit. That took a good month or so to write, primarily because I had writer's block.
-
Granted, but the brick bounces off of Kaja's face and breaks your computer, which was made of tin foil. I wish the rain would go back to its former settings, raining only once or twice a month rather than continuously for a week or more. What is this, Seattle?

Yeesh. You suck at Legend of Zelda games- they take me, like, 24 hours even most of the time. *Someone whispers that you've only ever played one Legend of Zelda game, that it's on the Game Boy Advanced, and your first time through it took you about sixty hours total* *Slaps someone whispering* I've started the War of the Ring side of Battle for Middle Earth II, and I really like it. This isn't quite Rebellion, but it's similar to it, except that now battles are land-based rather than space-based (Because hobbits don't build starfighters, unfortunately). You can use resources as necessary when fighting it out on the ground, but this ties back into your overall economy- thus structures that, while extremely useful, are also extremely costly, will sometimes have to be left out of the equation. And your economy doesn't spike strictly from owning new territories- you have to buy into one of four different build options, one of which is your method of producing resources, one of which delivers siege units, and one of which builds infantry and cavalry units. The array isn't as extensive as Rebellion's, and it's turn-based rather than being RTS when you're in tactical mode, turning into an RTS when you invade new territories/are invaded, somewhat like Empire at War, except that here, as I said, you can make the building take longer. The addition of allies also gives it something that Rebellion didn't have. You can see how everyone on your side moves across the map- that way, if you see that, say, the dwarfs are invading a neighboring territory with a large army and leaving their own territory open to attack, you can bolster their defenses with your own units, or aid them in the offensive with your own army. You can also flank enemies, bringing in two or more armies from different territories, or even the same territory, with the latter army coming in as a reinforcement army. Very, very cool game. It isn't quite Rebellion II, but it has great potential for it if any modders feel up to the task...

Okay, yeah, that would deffinately be spam, there. My measurements for it were by how often you post per day, and whether you wait a while before posting again. I've been trying to restrain myself for a while and, I thought, been succesfull. Rather than posting as soon as someone has something new written in a thread, I generally try to make sure that there has been either A) At least a day or two's time passage or B) There have been several comments posted in the mediary. A few times I'll post in a one two one fashion, but that's generally only to BEAK or in the RP threads where it contributes.

Umm.... Was necromancy involved? @Bud: Ugh, that's disgusting. I really wish I hadn't been eating breakfast when I read that... Just... Ugh.
-
I'm seriously regretting ever making that thread. @Bud: I appologize. It's just that you aren't always here, though in the brief times when you are, none of your posts are worth a bucket of warm hutt drool, so you should be on the list, I guess. Unfortunately I can't add folks to it, thus... You're sort of stuck with what's up there. P.S: Please be kind to the mods and don't stray from your normal spamming habits to get extra votes from the undecided. It isn't nice.

You only did that to be chief spammer, didn't you?

Granted, but then ALF realizes that he's gay and wants to have all sorts of wild, erotic, gay sex with you, and that's just odd for a guy who has a girlfriend, being hit on by a short, furry guy whose snout could well be his wing-wang. I wish the evil factons on Battle for Middle Earth II didn't suck.

OOC: Yes, that's right, ladies and gentlemen: Just in time for Rebellion: Reloaded's Beta release, I'd given you a new chapter in an RP very few people read! Post a comment if you read it... I have some major events in the story (Which has a full plot and sub-plot routine plotted (no pun intended) out in my head) written out on another computer, though they're subject to change as I continue. Anyone who knows their Latin should like the name I gave Runt's kid. IC: I just met these people yesterday, and already I’m trusting them with my life. I hate this planet. I was presently elbow-crawling along a rooftop, one of the ones that Hohass’s readers assured me still retained enough structural integrity to hold my weight, hoping somewhere in the back of my head that the roof wouldn’t break from my weight, causing me to plummet the nearly three-hundred stories to my death. This high up there was less chance of the molds and fungi that the Yuuzhan Vong were using to grow due to the thinner atmosphere. It also meant that there was a high possibility of the whole structure collapsing beneath its own weight from the lack of integrity loaned to it by the plants below, as well as of a coralskipper noting the monstrously tall building and deciding that their God of Planetary Décor wanted it blown up, killing us as well. However, it was the only way to travel other than through the streets, and a frontal assault would have killed us. We were heading toward a Shaper’s Facility, one of the relatively new ones. It had just been planted- the word still made me cringe somewhat, despite having seen how every bit of the Yuuzhan Vong biotechnology grew for nearly half a standard year- the previous week, and was still trying to pry nutrients from its surroundings. According to Hohass and his son, Ingens, this meant that the building, for lack of a better term, was relatively defenseless. It was a somewhat difficult concept to wrap my head around- these Vong structures were living things. Infiltrating them was impossible- nobody had to see you to know that you’d entered. The building itself felt you, impossible as that should have been. Fortunately, as Hohass and Ingens had ensured me, the building was donating all of its resources to growth at this time, and so had lost most functions, such as defensive hard points, semi-crystalline structure formation (supposedly the same thing that gave the amphistaffs their rigidity and the vondun crab armor its tenacity) and, fortunately for us, sensitivity along nerve endings and nosetongues. Nosetongues, from what I’d managed to gather, were exactly what they sounded like- an organ that both tasted and smelled anything that anyone trying to glean access through a doorway in the Yuuzhan Vong structures. If you were the right person the door would open, no problem. If you weren’t, however, it would sound an alarm, trigger a bunch of spiked needles, cause some other nasty trap to spring. The nosetongues were still getting used to the shapers and warriors that would utilize them, however, meaning that they accepted and stored most scents that they received within this limited timeframe. The only downside was that the Yuuzhan Vong were countering the structure’s current weakness. In rings three warriors thick, guards surrounded the living structure. The process, however, took several days to complete, and so meant that they had plenty of time to get bored with the task and to wish they were off stabbing smugglers in what was left of the city. Not much was left of the city. Huge swaths of it had collapsed in on themselves, and the compact nature of the construction on Nar Shadda had led to a sort of domino effect, wherein one building that had fallen due to the corrosive mosses attacking it smashed into another with just as many stress fissures, and so on and so forth. Except for the buildings that contained tremendous amounts of transparisteel, which appeared to be immune to the growths, most of the city was rubble. That ultimately worked out quite well for the new Yuuzhan Vong Shaper Facility, as I found out when it came into view. I suppressed a whistle, and felt tremendously glad that the people storming it with me were trained professionals in fighting and intrusion. It was comforting, even if I was facing fifteen to one odds against the outer defenses alone. The building, organism, structure, thing was massive and still growing, at least the size of a residential area on the rural areas of planets, and tall enough to accommodate a second story, though Hohass and Igens had assured me that the facilities were always strictly one level, perhaps the reason that they sprawled so extensively. What Hohass and Igens wanted to do here would be tricky. Rather than just blow up the facility, they wanted to give us access to it, constantly, by getting us to the nosetongues and forcing them to recognize our scents. That way, if anyone important with the Yuuzhan Vong or, say, a Master level shaper, were to arrive, entering would be easy enough for us, we could kill the shaper, and then escape, with the Yuuzhan Vong wondering how we were doing it. As a failsafe Hohass was sending Igens and the Jedi down below to where the roots of the facility were breaking duracrete down into its essential components and absorbing it. They had a mid-sized two-component device which feat neatly onto Igens’s massive back, nestled within the fur like teenager that still thought himself a toddler, clinging to a parent’s back. A stupid practice, and one I’d certainly never had a chance to participate in. Hohass grabbed my shoulder and pointed to an area where a landing pad had bent along its walkway, still solidly connected, but now oriented so that any ship trying to land on the pad would be forced to stand on its tail while doing so. “Can you get there?â€

(Same here... ) Granted, but his colon falls out. And she apparently is neutered in the process Granted, but then the cops come and arrest you, because its illegal. I wish I could fly a starfighter while performing a puppet show. Props to anyone who knows which book that's from.

Who do you think is the biggest spammer on our forum? Cast your vote, and no fair voting for yourself. Feel free to nominate other folks for the title of Biggest Spammer if you feel that they are that big of a spammer. I just want to see if Mad and I have lost our titles... Come to think of it, we haven't seen Mad around in a while. He probably has lost his title... Please note: This is not intended to reprimand anyone, nor to make anyone feel bad. It's just a joking remark on our post counts and on how everyone does with regards to posting again sooner than they probably should, a sign of their poor, pitiful lack of existence beyond the internet, as well as their inability to make real friends.
-
Granted, but then your computer is stolen. I wish I could bang out some more of the story for the Retaliators RP than just the ending, as I kind of need to bridge that gap before I can get to all of the scenes I envisioned...
-
@Eagle: I got access denied. @Rob: That sucks. Granted, it could be worse. You could live in the parts of Florida where the mosquitoes are still thick enough that sticking your hand against the bug netting will result in an outline composed of insects on the other side, making you wonder, "Should I go out and blow up some fun stuff, but risk being eaten alive by blood-sucking monsters, or should I just stay inside and celebrate Independence Day by doing nothing special and just screwing around in general, feeling guilty about not celebrating?" ... I opted for a combination of the two, making my toilet into a fireworks display with some hand sanitizer and a lighter. Small, safe flames around the rim, and a neat effect when you turn out the light.
-
@Vader: I believe I know- Men in Black II. Am I correct, or do they just use the same line? I'll be sure to try the beta out... Eventually... Once I finish screwing about with my newer games that were released by licensed professionals who could write their own source codes... But I will get around to testing. When I'm bored enough with Battle for Middles Earth II to take out Rebellion again. In other words, probably when the full, polished version is out.
-
... So we're going to hurt the only guy with technical expertise to make the Reloaded Beta work, then try to steal it from him, even though he probably has more coding experiance and such than all of us who aren't on the team combined? Makes perfect sense....
-
I was confused for a moment when I saw who'd started it, as well. I figured it was a joke, especially since LLF or E would have said to download the Beta for Reloaded here.

@JediHunter and Krytos: Check out the videos at the bottom- the guys talk about how the signs logically point to Jesus being a tool of Satan, saying, "Yeah, umm, we're gonna have to change the signs..." Also, the T-shirt sales bar says "Force is a Tool of Satan Dancing Jesus T-Shirt is funner than ever!" I assume that means that it's meant to be funny.
-
Granted, but now you have to use Linux, and everyone calls you a hippy and you can't even figure out how to work it, much less get rid of the rainbow writing when it starts up.
-
I wish you an unhappy birthday, Bud. Fortunately all of my wishes are corrupted, so you should have a good one.

What's with suddenly bolding everyone's name, Psych? @SOCL: If you actually read it you're fine. Nothing in there is an actual spoiler... Unless you haven't seen Rosebud or Matrix: Revelations (I think that's the title)... Or read HP book 6. Just got a new book from the library- A Brief History of Western Atheism. After failing to secure a copy of Sacrifice, I figured I'd check my other haunt besides the SciFi section. I've only read page one, but so far it looks interesting...
-
On that note, SOCL, thansk for the avatar. I hate to post again so soon, but "thansk?" Are you sure Psych is BEAKing material?
-
*Finally gets around to checking this thread out* Oh, hey, I remember that Community TC idea I had... How does ToguroAni get credit for it in the end? The bastard... As for me, I guess I would use my Zoot Wars character- four mechanical limbs of superhuman strength, a mechanical eye, and now no longer a Force-user. Good combat, good leader, but poor espionage, and no potential as a commander or an admiral. As I put it in the old thread, I suppose I'd be Villar's replacement. *Snigger*
-
*Headdesk* You're a mod for chrissake, SOCL. And here you're spamming the thread? I never thought it would come to this... Ever. Okay, yeah, I did think it would come to this, just not quite so soon. I'm still trying to secure a copy of Sacrifice from the library since I steadfastly refuse to pay twenty bucks for the hardback edition, but it's been tremendously elusive. The worst part is that I know far too much about the plot thanks to trying to brush up on the history of a character or two and an ill-placed suggestion to check out someone's Wookiepedia article. @SOCL: Spoiler alert. Snape kills Trinity with Rosebud on Zonama Sekot!

Just get a microphone hooked up and open up word, Rob. It works with mine, and my mike is, like, seven years old. [/reply to old post] Granted. Your pot is edited into sunflower seeds and daisies, and was on loan from the mafia. They shoot you. (Yeah, that's called a play on words, bitches!) I wish I was Peter Wiggin from the Enderverse.
