Inception
I just saw it today at the cinema and I really liked it, my friend found it a bit too complex to understand but I understood it and found a flaw. [hide] when the van is flying through the air and it causes the hotel to become zero gravity why does this not effect the snowscape?[/hide] A really good film, really really liked leonardo Da Vinci, yet again another good film. The ending was just a dissapointment though. [hide]the spinning top never stopped, therfore he was in a dream all that time - this means that all of the other characters apart from leonardo are projections![/hide]

Dungeoneering
Grim, you see a bunch of rocks that probably could have been assembled by humans or maybe even goblins, you walk up to it warily; goblins are evil things that will rape and pillage for fun. As you walk towards it you find that there is a small burrow, too big for goblins, rabbits and beavers but too small for hobbits and humans. You move a rock to get a clearer view and find that it goes down for miles. Håkon, you trip over and the hammer hits you on the back of the leg it hurts for a while but doesn't break any bones. You begin to check for wounds but find nothing apart from a bunch of leaves which you manage to shake out. Earth, you obviously haven't opened your tab yet.

Dungeoneering
Earth, you get up a little cold and find your wrench is on the floor next to you, still gleaming and shiny with a little bit of frost forming on it. I'm assuming its an impulse to go and get it and so you pick ut up, it feels a ittle uncomfortable but you can really feel the power rush through your body as you realise that you could kill someone right now. Håkon, you reach your polehammer and manage to lift yourself up. It feels slightly heavy in your hands but not as heavy as most people would find it. As you finally manage to get up you sense Grim's fire and it to a point wakes you up. You wield the hammer menacingly. Grim, you get up and manage to light the fire, it crackles for a bit and twists but the fire is still going. The warmth comforts you and you feel the other two baske in the warmness on this cold winter morning. You hold it high in the air and stamp it on the floor and notice your fire expand greatly +0.2 firemagic. As a note, bumps and head injurys will result can sometimes result in loss of skills, not till zero but you will lose 0.5 on average.

I can run a game now. Everyone You wake up on the floor of a forest, you can feel the cold dew pressed against your face. Your eyes are still closed, you can't bear to open them with such a splitting headache. You manage to writhe around a bit on the floor, before opening your eyes to find other people and bottles of alcohol littered over the floor and a pit of ash. Its still blue hour and therefore pretty cold. You don't remember why you are on the forest floor but the meaning is obvious

Delta V
Then you should just add other ways to win, what about having a place in the center of the map (holy lands) that once owned for one hundred years you win (or to keep the game going you get loads of money) What about first person to get to a certain planet. Conquering thirty countrys. I suppose your right but within the game there is lots you can do, infact fatortoise let you make up your own things it seems, you would probably be able to add things as you go.

You can do lots of other things. I have an idea.......

Delta V
Yes it is! But it was a lot more minimal in the first hegemony in comparison to Archi's Hegemony and Hegemony V2; they were arguefests. Hex isn't in the hegemony thread at all, has his posts been removed for some reason? A lot of players like Walka and That guy from FG and Racheya and Blackdawn don't play here anymore. You really had something going there, all these other hegemony things you've tried to do (with the exception of Dungeoneering, Manifest Destiny and This (this looks great)) seem to be just pale imitations of the perfect first one, I think the problem is that now that we know a limitless experience we will never be able to go back to the original hegemony unless tight rules are in place. I wish I'd have managed to find out about this forum earlier so I could've played the original, you can notice people enjoying things but nowadays I just notice "Next update? oh... yeh, I mobolise my army" instead of an indepth description of there creations.

Delta V
Yeh Dooms, it sounds like a big task but I just did a little bit every night before joining, and Hex never played he just talked a bit and requested joining the second thread. Grim, I will read it but I can't comment because its 3:00! I like what you said about peoples playstyles, a person with an aggresive race will play bettter if they play agressivelly. I haven't really worked out my playstyle yet but I think my intellegent but weak race will give me some time to work out what playstyle I am. I think Ross has the most likelyness of surviving in this game, he has a really balanced race that would fit to him, he will probably get a pretty large empire.

Delta V
Getting back to Delta V, do we make our own advantages or disadvantages? A bit ago, Archi made them but people have been making there own.
-
Delta V
Its more like a load of friends who all decide they want to have a brawl, one person injures two people, he is justified because they are brawling. Also Hex was kicked out of hegemony v2. Did Hex play v1? I just see him ask if he can play; no-one replies and than he appears a couple of pages later complaining about something. Rocco, number 3 is an opinion and not a fact so it doesn't matter. Getting back to Delta V, do we make our own advantages or disadvantages?

Delta V
1. Its a combat game, its allowed. 2. Its a combat game, its allowed. 3. Apparently there was some discrepancy in the time limit Archi had given, two days meaning 1 day with the limit ending on the second day or actually 2 days with the time limit ending at two. 4. He attacked someone, you banned him. 5. Not sure about that at all. Rocco, I have my opinion, you have yours; I am a little annoyed by the way your acting like the admins are wrong and how you banned him but I don't have as much experience as you. Either way whatever you or I say isn't going to change anything. I sense that we will never agree with each other therefore this is just creating bad feelings between us. I think it was bad but it can't be changed now so there is no point of arguing.

Forum Reshuffle
I don't like messy things, your adding messy things. We have a pretty neat desk and its almost like you are plonking some stuff on the side, it doesn't effect the working space but it always annoys you when you see it.
-
Delta V
Neither does anyones opinion on what happened in the past, its irrelevant; Archi had an opinion and I was countering his opinion which I believed wrong: usually this is called debating, arguing or 'discussion'. Why are you being argumentative?
-
Delta V
I thought you were talking about my opinion on Hex's banning.

Delta V
I just agreed with a higher power the admin, its like telling me that the duke has spoken when the king has overided the dukes words.

Delta V
People want to hurt other people with Laser bombs, planet busters and laser death rays, they just don't want to be a victim of them. Its not like there is anything that they could be replaced with. I am happy with Mather using a couple but its not that; he's trying to live as a stargater. His technologys are all stargate, his race is stargate, his plans are stargate: everything is stargate and it just doesn't appeal to everyone! Banning a person because you dislike them and using the guise of them ruining the game for others (by attacking other players) is completly barbaric, I've heard you turn your nose up at the admins a couple of times in my short time here and to be honest its just unpleasent. Hex was banned because he attacked another player, I've read the latest hegemony thread and this is the reason given, other reasons were given after he was banned but they seemed to all be excuses; he was said to be banned for ruining the game for other players (by attacking them) which makes no sense at all because the game is about warfare so my conclusion is that you don't like him and neither do some other people, therfore he was banned. The hegemony thread died way after Hex's expulsion, therfore you couldn't have had to close down the thread because of it. Whatever the admins did I believe it is justified. The admins are doing there job by stopping what they could percieve as bullying and therfore they are doing there job extremly well. I'm respectfully asking you to stop turning your nose up at the admins descision, even if you have an opinion you are constantly reffering to it as if the admins had acted wrong "Freak out"; people have different opinions; that doesn't mean that when I have a different opinion to you I'm "acting stupid".

Its just not fun, you have to agree with me on that one; no-one wants to play with stargate, otherwise I might aswell call my race the Dranei warlocks.

To be honest, I think copying should be banned.

Dungeoneering
21:00 GMT every night. The tavern has been extremely inactive recently and as far as I can see only one game is running at present. I thought it would be good to restart dungeoneering in an attempt to bring back some activity to the tavern. This game should help restore a bit of life back to the tavern and will end when Delta V starts (unless my modding proves extremly popular :XD:). I haven't really ever modded a game like this before so bear with me if I make any mistakes but I think I have the jist of things. A couple of features I am going to include is somtimes posting illustrations/maps or places and linking phrases and hidden meanings to wikipedia. Please fill out this bio-form.

He carries a great weapon, a combination of a sledge and a polehammer, with a shaft of about one meter the weight this hammer would have been too much for a normal man to truly wield properly but Håkon is able to not only wield it in one hand, but use it as swift as someone else would use a longsword.
