I was hoping to either annoy you or make you feel better with that, and if it made you feel better then I recommend you don't watch episode 3 if you're feeling sad that day. You will probably become sadder.

Don't watch episode 3 on a bad day. Just saying.

Lei, how far along did you watch?

If Lei doesn't get my link now, I will be disappoint. Also, joining my first Dark Heresy game! BLOOD FOR THE BLO- Oh wait, we're supposed to be FIGHTING those guys.

That was Latin, Earth. I was talking about thinking the show was awesome. Lei, this will make you feel better, I'm sure. First two episodes at the bottom of the page, just look at the listing above the video.

Lei. Watch Puella Magi Madoka Magica.

Lei, you watch anime, right?

:( Sorry Earth. Also, I thought so too.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vsGoNUAAg-k Listen to it. Necesse est.

Deflection all the way. Also, I could spend all week just playing around with Dark Heresy character building. I've partially completed 2 character sheets already, including some backstory.

Well SOMEONE here needs to run Dark Heresy. I've already got my character rolled up.

Think of it this way, Mather. You use an established, acclaimed game system. We're all fascinated, and decide 'what the hell, let's give him a chance, maybe he can make it something great.' Or You make your own piddly, oversimplified system. We're all apathetic, and decide 'sigh, we've played unstructured games twenty times to death, but maybe I'll play it if my gaming computer breaks that day...'

I would play a game of Dark Heresy, under your moderation. In an instant.

Mostly due to your infuriating hubris, and a complete disregard for the concept of scientific method. Also multi-hour long arguments with the GM, trying to disprove the laws of physics, does not better anyone's opinions of your intelligence. It's not that we don't trust you, it's that we trust you to make stupid decisions, as per usual. Also, moral center my third eye.

:huh: I don't think it works that way. Giving us less time to guess our way through the plot doesn't exactly help move it along.

[spoiler=Transcript of End Session]<The_Eye_Of_Snarcon> Suddenly <The_Eye_Of_Snarcon> You find a talking book <Gerund> *rolleyes* <Gerund> (Burn it.) <Hakon> I agree after seeing the user name tied to it. <The_Eye_Of_Snarcon> (Yes! Wyvern, you owe me a fiver) <Libronomicon> (Thanks, I was getting cold) <Gerund> (Glad to be of assistance) <Libronomicon> (I thought it was a quatrain?) <The_Eye_Of_Snarcon> So...anyway, your attempts at unravelling the plot <Libronomicon> (my attempts?) <Gerund> (Since the transaction to the Eye of Snarcon must pass into the Mana Plane, you obviously need me to make the transaction) <Gerund> (My wire transfer rates are 80%) <The_Eye_Of_Snarcon> Anyone's attempts <Gerund> (Four dollars and 3.2 trains, please) <Libronomicon> "Hello my dear readers, welcome to the Libronomicon's house of railroads and hard cider. may I take your order? <Gerund> "I'd like a MacGuffin, I have a plot coupon for 10% off." <Libronomicon> "I am sorry sir, but we are out of Big MacGuffins today" <Gerund> I knew I should've learned temporal magicks. <Gerund> Well then <Libronomicon> "Well, we ran out of them next week" <Gerund> Yesterday too? <Hakon> The king is trying to expand his power but Owl Cloak is keeping him back, meanwhile behind his back, one of the king's demons is rampaging on the loose. We're also dealing with another mage, responsible for the wisps, who is working towards the same goal as us. <Gerund> "Sir, I'm beginning to question whether you ever carried MacGuffins in the first place." <Gerund> "What kind of plot device are you supposed to be, then?" <Libronomicon> "We have carried them for 10 years straight starting this new year" <Gerund> "Ah, well then, I just need to retcon and pick one up in my backstory, obviously" <Libronomicon> "Let me see... Nope, not finding anything in my index on that" <Gerund> "I'll just write it in then, come here a moment..." <Gerund> *scribbles in the Libronomicon* <Libronomicon> (is that honestly what your character would do in response to the book?) <Gerund> "A-R-C-H-I I-S A W-A..." <Gerund> "Why, of course." <Gerund> *writes in family relation to Deadpool* 6* Libronomicon flings self into Gerund's face 5<The_Eye_Of_Snarcon> Gerund begins suffocating <Gerund> "That's rather forwards of you my good sir" <Gerund> "I'm afraid I must protest" <Gerund> *puts face against burning tree* <The_Eye_Of_Snarcon> The book seems hardy and invunerable to fire <Libronomicon> (where is this burning tree coming from suddenly?) <Gerund> (I lit a grove on fire a little while ago) <Gerund> (I thought it might help the situation) <Libronomicon> "Perhaps you Mr. Quiet would be more willing to work with this fine work of non-fiction*" <Gerund> I cast 'Summon Myriad of Jens' <Gerund> Who better to fight a book than a bunch of rules lawyers? 6* Libronomicon hops away from Gerund to Mask <The_Eye_Of_Snarcon> The planet explodes when Jen's powergaming meets his vaccuous personality <Gerund> "FACEHUGGER!" <Gerund> I whip out a plasma rifle and fire at the book. <The_Eye_Of_Snarcon> You don't have a plasma rifle 2*** Hakon has quit (Quit: Tip.It Java User) <Gerund> Fine 6* Libronomicon hops back to Gerund <Gerund> I summon the Eye of Snarcon and bombard it with the power of Sarcasm! <Libronomicon> "Ah, so you are a friend of the pink one?" <Gerund> "I assure you, I don't know anyone pink. If I did, I wouldn't for long." <The_Eye_Of_Snarcon> Racist.... <Libronomicon> "You honestly have never met the Pink One, the Keeper of the 4th gate?" <Gerund> Pink is not a color. It is a disease. <Gerund> "Sorry, I only know the Keeper of Gate 562" <Libronomicon> "But fine sir, there are only 4 Gates, perhaps he was the keeper of gate 562" <Gerund> "I thought there were Nine gates, but the last one kills you." <Libronomicon> "There are infinite gates in this realm and those that border them" <Gerund> "Infinty equals 4? Good to know." <Gerund> (I think this book is defective.) <Libronomicon> "No, you are mixing up Gates and gates" <Gerund> "There's only one gate though, don't you see?" *points at castle* <Gerund> "And I don't see what Bill has to do with this." <Gerund> Wait a moment <Gerund> It all makes sense now! <Libronomicon> "That is gate 5FFFF3 through Gate 1" <Gerund> Archi must be running Windows Vista! <Gerund> IT ALL MAKES SNES <Gerund> No, wait, that's Nintendo <Libronomicon> "This man is a maniac, perhaps I should stop wasting my time here and find a baker" <Gerund> "I can bake!" <The_Eye_Of_Snarcon> Book pies? <Gerund> "Just look at this fine tree! Toasted to perfection!" <Gerund> "Just scrape off the charcoal." <Libronomicon> "That is more broiled than baked" 6* Libronomicon starts hopping off to find a baker <Gerund> "I assure you, sir, I know what baked is." <Gerund> "I've dealt with enough of those sorts in my time." <Gerund> "And I must say, I'd prefer the trees not be baked." <Gerund> "They're cantankerous, or is it cankerous? Enough without that sort of influence." <Libronomicon> "If you are such a great baker, sing the fine song of the grandmaster baker?" <Gerund> "Hot cross buns, hot cross buns" <Gerund> "One a-penny, two a-penny, hot cross buns" <Libronomicon> "That is the song of the Journeyman Bakery night attendant, not the Grandmaster baker" <Libronomicon> "All you have to do is take a cup of flour" <Libronomicon> "Add it to the mix " <Libronomicon> "Now just take a little something sweet, not sour" <Gerund> "Bring us our Figgy Pudding?" <Libronomicon> "A bit of salt, just a pinch" 2*** Mask has quit (Client exited) <Libronomicon> "Baking these treats is such a cinch " <Libronomicon> ... <Libronomicon> "Cupcakes, cupcakes, cupcakes, CUPCAKES! " 6* Libronomicon continues hopping towards a baker 2*** The_Eye_Of_Snarcon has quit (Quit:)

I'm trying to perform !!SCIENCE!! in the Dwarf Fortress raw files. Trying to give Necromancers the ability to make corpses explode and so-forth. It's not going too well.

^ Is pretty bro for a filthy harpy < Wishes he could make a reference to the Steampunk Anthology right now v Doesn't know what steampunk means

It seems that those sorts of games tend to place a lot of reliance on the French always being the French, the Americans always being the Americans, the Germans always being the Germans... And a whole lot of nothing changing culturally over the course of history. That, or culture arbitrarily changing even when deprived of the historical climate that led to those changes originally.

^ Is the spy! < Was hoping otherwise, but fine either way v Isn't particularly interested in this line of conversation

That sounds like every Tavern game ever.

Stop with the Hegemony nonsense. It's probably not going to happen, the premise generally wore thin a few attempted games ago.

With LOTPW gone, I don't have anywhere to post spammy videos from youtube. :( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vsGoNUAAg-k

^ Is a liar < Thinks reptiles are win v Likes mammals

Back in mah day, there was an awesome spam thread in Forum Games.
