Because now I am on a dial-up connection.
-
so what? You show up every few months to restart this thread?
-
you are all doomed anyway
-
Or just as is.
-
what you say!?... you dead fool, you way dead, like, like santa dead...
-
I told you that you were all doomed...
After all it didnt tke Gemm and TFO long to latch onto this thread like blood engorged leaches.
-
has anyone noticed the massive influx of girl posters to TWG (at least by web standards)
Sure, some of them are psycho fish leaving Lit teacher stalking loonies, but their our loonies.
I think thats cool,... now if we could just get Gemm a psycho stalker all would be right with the world.
Oh and just to be on topic, my title reminds me of the Clash song Ghetto defendent.
-
I just hope it doesnt' take long to get the 250 posts I need to become un-assassinated.
-
I wouldn't mind a psycho stalker.
Erk. Endorphin crashes aren't fun. Let them out gradually, not all at once.
-
that's because you haven't ever had one. Seriously, even if you're lonely? Stalkers are downright creepy
-
See, I consider the idea of a woman so obsessed with me she follows me home romantic.
-
see, that's not the only thing they do. If they're truly obsessed with you, they started mucking around with your life in unpleasant ways.
Let's also get it straight: a stalker is only a stalker because you're not interested in them. If you were, they wouldn't have to stalk. Since you're not, they start spreading lies about you and making other things terribly complicated and unpleasant. Seriously dude, Jeffe and I have had stalkers. It's definitely NOT cool.
-
Stalkers are very scary. I had one guy that I dated for a week and a half turn into a stalker when I decided that dating him was a bad idea and broke off the relationship. It got to the point where I was afraid to be anywhere near the guy if no one else was around (and he lived in the next dorm over from me). It was not a pleasant experience.
-
You know, Miss Fish isn't going to come around here any more if you guys keep calling her a stalker. Leaving some random gifts on a doorstep does not a stalker make, I think.
-
I think your missing the amount of effort it took to do the fish thing, and then get on a bbs where you regularly post and taunt you about it.
In a lot of peoples book that is stalking.
Having been stalked in the past I find the whole thing kinda creepy.
-
But EUOL and MsFish are at BYU. BYU students do that kind of thing before breakfast.
-
But always after taking a shower and brushing ones teeth.
-
But if we were already engorged, why would we feel the need to latch on... wouldn't we just be tame, and sorta flacid...
-
ever hungry leeches...
ever hungry....
-
that explains so much of my life...
-
Ooo, I'm a badgerkeeper. Now that's classy. :D
-
Badgers? Badgers? we don't need no stinking badgers!
-
Mushroom, Mushroom, Snake.
-
I need to watch that some more. Kill some brain cells.
-
only one more post and I am...... a journeyman scribe
-
Is it just me or are the lower level Dark Magic titles less insulting than the other disciplines?
-
Perhaps. Although EUOL's "skretch bait" phase was interesting.
Mine are supposed to be insulting though- I'm a student of servitude!
-
Oh good I'm not a battery any more.
-
Archon may have a point. At only level 16, I'm a Master of Death's Eye. ;D
-
Not that I am complaining, it just seemed weird to me. Maybe it is because so many people go for student of warfare that they make the beginning names less desirable, so as to make more new people take other classes. Probably not, but it is possible.
-
I think it has more to do with whomever was in charge of your particular class. Some were just nicer than others.
-
I dont think I ever get a good name, I mean I'm level 25 and I'm a fourth year seminarian...
-
when you're level 75 you'll be an assassinated prophet.
-
thats still not very cool...
-
I think "God King" is somewhere around level 50
-
shweetness! of course I'm only half way there...
-
level 51 or so you get smitten and become a deaf, mute, adn blind begger.
-
Ok, this is awesome! I went from being a Knight to, Uh, Something More Creative than 'Greater Knight.'
Literally.
-
yeah, see, when you're in the lead, all those titles are new. But since that change was made due to a complaint from HoM months ago, we've already discussed it.
-
but it reminds me how funny it was
-
well, just 24 more posts. What do you think happens after Assassinated Prophet? REsurrected prophet? Then I have to wait 370 more posts to see what happens next?
-
so I've gone from assassinated to... dead. ????
so NO progression. I'm not undead, but I'm still around. Maybe I'm an angel or something.
-
Maybe that is what you will progress to. In the meantime however, you are expelling a tremendous stench. ;D
-
That's the smell of brimstone, which is the fate of all who mock my decrepit features.
-
and yet somehow I remain unafraid....
-
what do you know? you havent' even died once yet.
-
Oh don't be so sure. And you dont have to die before you get rid of your fear of brimstone.
-
is the point supposed to be that if you're undead you can't be resurrected? Being undead wouldn't make you very holy I guess.
-
I changed my pic to show my new thralls
Beware for I am Lord of the Beatles!!!!
-
is the point supposed to be that if you're undead you can't be resurrected?
Wouldn't that effectively put the soul to rest?
-
Go back to battle of the planets :D
-
Ha! Jeffe, that was a riot.
-
when do I not get to be a seminerian?
-
you're not a semenarian. You're a graduate of seminary.
-
oh...sweet!
-
what will I be when I rise from the dead? or stay dead as the case may be? Find out in 10 more posts!
That is, post stuff so I don't have to spam to get my next level you godless heathens. I don't want to be rotting forever. (knowing EUOL, the next level is "decayed corpse" or something and it'll take me another 5 levels to be resurrected or something)
-
Well, my guess is that you will still be a person with way too much time on your hands....but that is just a theory.
-
I don't have too much time on my hands. I don't have any. I wasted it all
-
and,... I'm not sure if that means I live or not now. Probably not. This is like being a saint. It's a privelege you only get if you're dead
-
Well, best thing for a saint, becoming a martyr.
-
Almost done washing windows.
-
Took you long enough--if I'm nice, I won't make you do them all over again, slave! ;)
-
hmmm I could use a house painter....
-
Well excuse me, ms. NOT-so-benevolent almsgiver person. As I recall you were a very lonley hermit when I signed on with you! :D
-
And now she's got money to burn... maybe there is something in that hermit thing after all.
-
I'm impatient!
-
CURSES!
-
Ha-Ha!
-
Well, you took so long with the windows...and there was that back-up in the pipes--I'm no good at this home repair thing--that's what I have you for! ;)
-
bwahahahah. Promotion TO Latrines. This is like my promotion to rotting corpse.
-
Hehe, 42 did a great job with that class. Only the first level are you actauly anything normal.
-
Um what's an Acelen?
-
Long-term submitting shemp knight? What, does that mean I fight for a shempan maid who just so happens to dominate me, or what?
-
I wonder which band I get next....
-
Exactly at what level do I NOT have fleas?
-
Lol. JP, I have no idea where that came from. HoM, do you remember?
-
Long-term submitting shemp knight? What, does that mean I fight for a shempan maid who just so happens to dominate me, or what?
I think it means you're the fourth stooge.
-
I have conquered all to move onto the next stage of my mastery of Dark Magic.
-
Wow what a fitting title.
-
Exactly at what level do I NOT have fleas?
Tek, you grow out of them in a level or so. Or five. I can't remember. But fleas aren't so bad. I'd rather be flea-ridden than have to clean latrines. Which reminds me of the Wierd Al song of a title that I can't remember but the lyrics say:
"I'd rather clean every toliet in Grand Central Station - with my tongue - than spend one more minute with you."
-
Oddly enough, I'm thrilled with my current title.
-
Brenna's about to level up again!
-
Finally! I've been a benevolent almsgiver for a loooong time.
-
well, if you hung out with us more, you wouldn't have this problem would you?
-
shut yer gob you martyr... :)
-
I do hang out with you guys all the time--I just don't post as much (and I'm not as longwinded ;) )
-
Long-term submitting shemp knight? What, does that mean I fight for a shempan maid who just so happens to dominate me, or what?
It could also be an Evil Dead/Sam Raimi reference.
In all (or nearly all) of his movies he always credits "Fake Shemps" which are a reference to the Three Stooges. After the real Shemp died, several episoes had to have scenes filmed with stand-ins or 'fake shemps.'
Actually, Raimi uses a lot of Stooges references in his movies, from scenes to dialogue.
-
Can we take votes on what SE will be in a few more posts?
-
1st miracle on the way to becoming a saint, I think.
-
but I'm already a saint.
I hate how you people always start talking about my next level but then don't say anything I can respond to so I can actually GET that next level.
-
I wrote the first article for the Timewasters ever, before it was a website and everything and I'm a stinking ditch digger. Just because I was a way for a little bit suddenly I'm lowly.
Whine, sniffle.
-
well, y'know, it's being away AND not posting thousands of times like I do.
-
how is your on forum job different from the one you used to perform in Afganistan?
-
You're not supposed to knwo about the job I did in Afghanistan...
Wait, you weren't talking to me. Never mind. Nothing to see here. You didn't see anything.
-
Look at me! I'm legendary!
I am NOT that crappy movie starring Tom Cruise. Just get that out of your head.
-
Mostly there's less dirt now.
-
and shooting, less shooting too.
-
What happened to it? (Do tell in 5 or 34 posts.)
-
Well, the dirt all stayed in either the mountains of Afghanistan or down the drains in the showers.
The shooting just faded away into my memoir.
-
Ahahah. Now everyone point and laugh as Skar masters ditch digging!
-
Hey, at least it's dirt and not camel poo.
-
Woah, how's that for ironic? I just levelled up to an Honored (sic) knight. By posting on the Stupid Titles thread. Without realising I was about to level up.
I'm guessing Spriggan wrote this title, because it's spelt wrong.
-
I stand alone and laugh as Gemm's pink flower thingy floats gently down a stream of urine in a ditch that I dug.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Ha.
-
hahahahaha! It's probably true!
JP, how is it spelled wrongly if you spelled it the same way Sprig spelled it?
-
Everyone says that.
No, it's just that EUOL is as crappy a speller as his brother. He just hides it behind spell checkers.
-
It's actually spelled right, for the American spelling.
-
There are no knights in America.
-
Sure there are, we just don't tell you foriengers about them.
-
Ah, but TRUE knights are well renowned for their many good deeds. And became Knights thanks to a monarch, which you don't have.
-
We have the King of Pop.
-
And your welcome to keep him, thank you very much.
-
I think N'Sync or something are the Knights of Pop.
-
I think I hate our "knights."
-
I KNOW I hate our knights. As in, when I inevitably meet them in hell, it will be seeing them too soon.
-
There are the knights of Columbus too. Which is a service organization.
I want to point out that we've had the argument before about the extraneous silent "u" in words that you brits and aussies think is necessary. Which is what makes you look even more ignorant when you accuse EUOL of not spelling it correctly ;D
It's not like Australia has any knights either. And it's not like England's knights are worth a rat's back side anymore. Paul McCartney? Come on. What's he going to do if a black knight's kidnapped your love. Sing "Ebony and Ivory?" with the king of pop? Wow, I can't believe you guys have the courage to try and bad-mouth American knights.
And I just can't resist talking about the knights made by kings. So a non-representative ruler picking the guys who gave him the most money to get an extra honor is the only way to get a real knight... and this is a DESIRABLE thing? Come on people. Historically, those guys were the ones DOING the raping and pillaging, not preventing it.
-
Sir Donald Bradman is the worlds best batsman.
You guys can't even play cricket.
Oh, hang on, he's dead.
-
You say this like we should WANT to play Cricket. Which is absurd.
-
Gratuitous level-up post, and here's hoping I'm not in for something worse.
-
that's actually an improvement, I'd say.
-
I like Cricket, theres a a new American Cricket league now....
-
What did I do to get the church to like me? I mean, I'm like anti-organised religion. And stuff. But the Church Favours me? Reminds me of the government grant to fund a video game about escaping from a detention centre.
-
I think it was the bug domestication
-
So now I'm an angry ditch digger. Better than apprentice I suppose. Does "student of warfare" ever get any cool levels?
-
no one gets cool level till at least level 15 or so. Even there, it's on and off. I spent nearly 800 posts dead. Half of that rotting.
don't worry, both the ditch-digging and hte anger are part of your training.
-
Again: At least it's not Camel Poo.
-
Oh, let me whine.
-
Oh, whine away. I'm just contextualizing your whine. And setting expectations.
-
I was going to post something about whine and cheese, but nevermind.
-
Thank you.
-
post!
I am now, and always will be, the Duck-man. er... I mean, the Saint. THE saint, mind you.
-
Oh wow. You've hit a level of degradation even I wouldn't go after.
-
We knew it was inevitable.
-
Yay! Almost Christmas and I'm a "Holy Knight".
-
errrr... nevermind
-
now Im close to leveling...
-
what is it you're protesting, Jeffe? The abuse of monkeys in the ninja assassin seminaries?
-
And I move from being a bored actor to...
-
Excellent!
-
but not a skilled night burglar, since you don't know how to use a lightsaber in stealth situations.
-
Night burglars don't have to kill people. They just have to steal stuff! At night!
-
I, am, The Woodlord! Bring to me the woods of a thousand armies!
-
Night burglars don't have to kill people. They just have to steal stuff! At night!
Night burglars don't kill people. Ninja monkeys with lightsabers kill people.
-
Yeah, like their unwitting "masters."
-
I don't know what's unwitting about ninja monkey masters. We tend to kill wittingly.
-
Ah, so the truth comes out! You died on purpose because you wanted to become a saint!
-
and so I could do some supererogation
-
Ooooo! Saint learned a new word!
-
or his thesaurus did.
-
nah, I've just been listening ti Kije try to talk smack about my ninja monkeys
-
And of course the conversation turned to supererogation. I mean, what conversation doesn't?
-
esp. when it involves monkeys, and ninjas.
-
good point...
-
esp. when it involves monkeys, and ninjas.
Which, on this forum, is pretty much all the time.
-
Everyone keep posting so I have stuff to reply to without spamming. I should be able to get elevated from "saint" this weekend and I want to know if I'm an angel yet or not.
Of course, I'm probably something like an "Arch-Saint" or something else that's ultimately disappointing, but still.
-
Everyone keep posting so I have stuff to reply to
So, uh, how are you SE? What's your plans for Thanksgiving?
-
I'm fine thanks! I'm eating with my in-laws, which only makes sense since that is where I live, y'know.
Thanksgiving is usually far too crowded there, since I'm used to small gatherings for turkey day, but it looks like I lucked out and there won't be so many.
They do have a cool tradition, though. Tonight is "Pie Night." As an extra excuse to bring ungodly numbers of people into the house, but disguised as being a method to make sure people can eat Thanksgiving pie when they aren't doing so just because, y'know, it's Thanksgiving and you pretty much NEED to have that slice even though doing so will probably make your stomach so full that it will cause a hernia when you stand, they invite everyone over to eat lots of pie on Wednesday night. (incidentally, anyone who can make it, pie startes in about 5.5 hours)
This tradition is rivaled in coolness only by the tradition I ran into on my mission: Ice cream for breakfast. Everything has ice cream. You may make pancakes or crepes or something, but you put ice cream on them. You make ho-cho, but you put ice cream in it. You may get out an empty bowl, but you put ice cream in it. Topping are extra but show you are truly dedicated to the sanctity of Ice Cream for Breakfast.
It occurs to me that instead of asking random questions here, people should just Ask Dr. SÉ for some more advice (http://www.timewastersguide.com/boards/yabb/YaBB.cgi?board=rantage;action=display;num=1068510416).
-
Aren't you glad you asked Homsar?
-
I remember Ice Cream for breakfast. I havn't eaten waffles with ice Cream fr too long, but there is no better breakfast. I'll convince my mother (the one with the waffle Iron) to make some while I'm down there.
I used to, as a kid, eat a bowl of Ice Cream every breakfast as desert. When I had Waffles and Ice Cream for Breakfast, it just got plain silly.
-
I once dated a guy whose family had the day after Thanksgiving tradition of pie for breakfast. So they had massive amounts of pie, but it was for the whole weekend, not just the day.
I was used to it being much larger for Thanksgiving and Christmas, when I was growing up, but since I've lived so far away for so long, I usually just do Thanksgiving with friends where I live. It's nice to have the little dinner with friends at Thanksgiving and then go home for the big gathering at Christmas.
-
I'm a serf. It rhymes with smurf.
-
I'm a squirrelkeeper. Rhymes with... nothing. But I like squirrels.
-
it rhymes with Pearl Sneaker. isn't that cool?
-
Angel!!
Figures.
-
devil will follow, or deviled angel...
-
Hell's angel possibly. I thought I'd have to go through a number of saintly titles first. Guess EUOL's not as predictable as he once was.
-
Yeah, hard to be predictable with 80 different level names under your belt...
-
/me starts a betting pool on the following three possibilities for level 81 of the Student of Divinity class:
Arch-Angel
Hell's Angel
Fallen Angel
-
I vote for 'slightly more important angel'.
-
Entropy's seems highly more likely.
-
Maybe "Uh, something more interesting than Angel"
-
I was deteremined to level up today, and this is my level up post. Now I can shut up.
-
your just small time.
-
I vote for Angle btw
-
I look at Jeffe's avatar and current level title and I think of a thousand elves at Santa's Workshop on strike.
-
Power to the little people
-
...and then Santa's enforcers came in with their rubber cork guns, and broke up the rioting elves. The leader of the protesters was later quoted as having said "Ouch!"
-
except no, that didnt happen... EMBARGO ON!!!!!
-
obligitory stupid titles bump.
-
yeahso!?
-
I will vanquish you.
-
I just noticed that I'm a wormwatcher. Does this mean I help little stranded worms on sidewalks after it rains? I always feel so sorry for them.
-
Or you eat fried worms... but like to look at them first.
-
Im not sure I like being an ecoterrorist around this area right now.
-
or maybe you're just a Pink Floyd song.
-
Ok, I have to level up and see what's above serf.
-
The next few levels aren't that interesting for you, Fuzzy. But level 50 will be a true level of accomplishment.
Just some foreshadowing.
-
Maybe you're just the person who plants the thumper and watches them go by.
-
It appears I have once again passed up EUOL's level title making creativity and moved on to numbers.
A "level 81" is apparently more impressive than an angel.
-
Dang.
I'll get on it, SE. Sorry.
-
Oooh. Whose Guardian Angel is he? Is he like those people on Touched by an Angel? Maybe he could get his own TV show! They could call it Touched by Saint Ehlers.
-
I hope he gets smacked by a lot of old ladies.
-
I'd bet he's a really incompetent guardian angel, like Clarence on It's a Wonderful Life.
Personally, EUOL, I think his title should be Angel 2nd Class until he gets his wings.
-
heh. that'd rule. A show like Touched by an Angel starring anyone on this message board would probably be banned by child protection services for inappropriateness.
-
So I'm crooked. Does that mean crooked as in working on the wrong side of the law? Do I bury people who aren't dead and help convicts escape from prison? Hum, that made me think of vampires. Or am I crooked as in physically bent out of shape? I'm just wondering.
A show with anyone on this message board has got to be more interesting than Touched By an Angel. I hated that show, in spite of my mother.
-
If you had to dig all the time how do you think you'd look?
-
I'd just like to say I like my new level a lot.
-
Which begs the question, does it really mean that you destroy for nature? Or does it secretly mean you're a traitor and have started destroying nature.
-
With SE reaching level 81, and EUOL having to invent more title names, I was thinking how far thi swill actually go. Then I thought, "it'd be cool if each class maxed out at lvl 100 with some uber-title, and then the person could multi-class. And we could invent some new classes to choose from also. With the new classes possibly open only to multi-classers. Or everyone. Or whatever.
I have no idea how this works systems-wise. For all I know it's impossible, or too much work. I was just thinking...and maybe that's the problem. :)
Some new classes might be:
Student of Culinary Arts
Student of Fear
Student of Time
Student of Television
Student of Spokesmodelling
Student of Plumbing
Student of Technology
Student of Insults
Student of Navels
and the list goes on...
-
I bet EUOL and the other boss types would be willing to let you add some of those classes. I like Student of Culinary Arts.
-
Besides being a cool title, "swindler" is a cool sounding word.
-
I just want to complain that I've been some crappy kind of paladin or another for a long time and I'm sick of it. Paladins suck.
-
Not very honorable, are you, student of honor?
Kije: I'm not sure on the multiclassing. I'm wary on doing any coding for this site, since Sprig and Tage keep talking about changing to a different forum sooner or later. We'll have to re-code the class system then anyway.
Adding new classes, however, is only marginally difficult. The thing is, I don't want everybody on the forum saying "Hey, I want to make a class too!" Part of the fun of this all is the fact that very few people know what the class titles are, and that keeps up the air of anticipation. That said, I guess I wouldn't be opposed to your contributing one, if you really want. Realize, however, that we already have one silly class, and I'm not sure how many we want. I kind of like the idea of having real fantasy classes, but then throwing in the occasional silly title.
I plan to revamp the classes eventually, so some of them aren't quite so repetitive. But, we'll see what happens.
-
Yeah - I was speaking of multiclassing only after you reached 100, and the new classes only available after 100. But it was just an idea - and not one I was particularly attached to - that I was throwing about.
-
/me lights mustard on fire, and expunges his soul using Divine Paladin Power, since he has truly fallen from the path.
-
Expunge away. I'd rather be a swindler than a paladin.
-
I'm not sure if there's a better thread for this, but:
Sprig, I love your new avatar.
-
I want to be clear on one thing:
Sprig's avatar isn't actually big enough for everyone to see how cute I was at the time. I was, however, adorable.
-
It almost makes me want to convert from the EUOL fan club to the Tage fan club. Well, almost.
-
I'm sure you are very cute in that picture, Tage. But in that jpg at that size, you are scary looking.
-
Imagine him in his ninja suit...
-
Unsavory (morally offensive) peasant
Well from some things ive been told I believe it is quite befitting to me.
-
perhaps it just means "flavorless"
-
awww dumb it down why don't ya. I like the other better
-
perhaps I'm just trying to reach the target audience.
-
Yeah.. I know.. Well if you put it that when they Gravedigger is better, otherwise unsavory(morally offensive) peasant still holds a challenge
-
he's digging his own grave...
-
I hope it's a watery one. ;D
-
cause those take a long time to dig.
-
And you tend to sink to the bottom while you're doing it.
-
and your socks get all squishy and waterlogged.
-
But the bright side is, there's probably FISHES down there. :D
-
and Ms. Fishes too. ;)
-
Akk! In a watery grave?
-
Yes your an undead Ms. Fish ;D
/me makes a hissing sound
-
Ah yes...I seem to remember something about Ninja monkeys dancing on my grave...
Were they having a water ballet?
-
Ninja monkies love to swim...
-
They had better watch out for those undead fishes, especially if they are tasty monkeys. And they had better watch out for MsFishes, if they chocolate monkeys.
-
I think they like to butter themselves, rather than bathe in chocolate... but you never know...
Undead fishes are neat enough to add to our RPG games.
-
Yummmm...buttered monkey....
Undead fishes are neat enough to add to our RPG games.
What do you mean?
-
oh an undead fish is a cool idea for a monster in a roleplaying game...
-
Hmm, so now I'm a monster...
-
no not really,...
but it is a cool monster concept...
My wife has a Beta by the way, He's blue and named Sparky.
-
Yay Betta!
It's not an undead fish, is it? Because with a name like Sparky...
-
Ms Fish kind of freaks me out. You're right, she does make a good monster.
-
What what? *Why* do I freak you out?
-
What makes you think I know? But its okay, I sort of like scary stuff.
-
Lol. Then I'll take it as a compliment.
-
Awww, someone who understands. I'm all warm and fuzzy now. ;D
-
no, fuzzys a different member...
Sparky appears to be alive, as far as I can tell although he does get spooked by snowmen.
-
You crack me up.
-
How is it that I was a plain panhandler, and then I go up a level and acquire fleas? Now I itch.
-
Yeah, but you can eat them for protein.
-
Well if you're not going to at least bathe, what do you expect?
-
Yeah, but I don't like the way they crunch.
Hey! I'm a FISH! What do I need to bathe for? For that matter, what would I bathe with?
-
Beggers can't be choosers, or some such.
-
Hey! I'm a FISH! What do I need to bathe for? For that matter, what would I bathe with?
I generally use soap and water, but maybe that's just me.
-
I'm sorry I asked.
-
Hey, sometimes I'm nice. I like keeping things balanced.
-
Yeah, like the scales of doom.
-
sounds very fishy...
-
I don't judge, just observe and sometimes ridicule.
-
Only if the scales tip below sea level.
-
Which reminds me of a few days at sea where my lunch would rattle around my stomach while the ocean waves made the ship roll 25 degrees constantly. thats 50 degrees total,... imagine a 50 degree floor shift...
-
That does sound like the scales of doom. What did you do to incur their wrath?
-
mostly join the Coast Guard.
-
Yeah, that'll do it.
-
yep, sure does, imagine living in a 270 foot long 40 foot high and 30 foot wide house with 100 people, thats split into 10 sections by watertight bulkheads... (walls) where about 1/2 that space is taken up with machinery...
-
I don't know, sounds cozy. :P
-
it is untill you do it for 3 months in the worst humid heat or freezing cold you can imagine...
-
I get very motion sick. Cramped quarters would be the least of my problems.
-
oh they give ya pills for that,... but yeah I've been there,... motion sickness doesnt have anything on sea sickness though...
-
I've been on boats a few times, even in the ocean, but nothing close to that. But probably half of the times, I was using motion sickness pills, so I've never really got sea sickness. I have got motion sick just from playing video games though, so I don't think I'd last too long even with the pills.
-
we had a few cronics, they all had to leave the CG.
-
So I've been on the Deception path since I joined.
Worked my way through begging and just recently through acting to find my newest title is Night Burglar?
Huh?
I thought after acting the path led either to "Rehab Rookie" or "Butchered Plastic Surgery Patient"
-
or at least Hamburgler
-
What about a Con-artist title arc? heh
I think I can remember most of the warrior titles so far...
Apprentice Ditch Digger
Ditch Digger
Master Ditch Digger
Angry Ditch Digger
Begining Street Brawler
Street Brawler
Master Street Brawler
Incarcerated Street Brawler
Jailbird
Prison Hero
Escaped Convict
...hmm, missing one somewhere.
-
You're missing a ditch digger.
You know, I did add in our first prestige class a little while back. Nobody's picked up on it yet, though....
-
Would that be Tage's Level Infinity, "Deus Ex Machina"?
-
lol. Actually, he implemented that himself one day when he was bored. I suppose that was really our first prestige class.
The change I made relates to a conversation that appeared on this thread a few weeks ago. The alteration is very subtle. However, someone now has a class--and titles--that cannot be chosen when one joins the forum.
-
Found it! Blackguard.
aka Student Of DisHonor
-
Yeah, fighters have taunts. Now you will fear the ditch diggers of the world, for they have the power to (dun-dun-dun)... bury the bodies.
-
It's Mustard!
I guess you gotta be careful what you say...apparently the forum gods are always listening.
-
With all these paladins around looking for a fight, he probably won't last long.
-
I'll help him out. We'd make a good team...when we weren't killing paladins we'd argue about systems of measurement.
-
How much could there be to argue over. There's only two or three systems of measurement tops... body count, shiney stuff looted from bodies, and maybe a third for stink factor.
-
Yay! Finally, I am a Paladin!
-
now you must never post again...
-
Why? Judging by mustard, I get to be a Paladin for a bunch more levels.
Anyway, I can just use my mod powers to set my postlevel to whatever I want, if I want to be a Paladin that badly.
Oh, and it's harder than that to make me leave and shut up.
-
LOL
-
Actually, JP, I think you need FTP access to change post counts. We wanted to give the mods a way of changing it to give rewards/punishments, but...well, that would have taken work. And as a group, we're generally against that.
-
Yeah JP, you're going to be a Paladin for the rest of your life.
-
I would love to earn a Mistress of All Evil Prestige Class. I'm not sure how I would go about doing that. I guess I could set people on fire more often.
-
I'm still digging the fighter titles. They seem to match as well as anything else.
-
I cant wait until I become another type of protestor,... perhaps a philisophical one.
-
Heh, or maybe you'll get cheated and end up a nude protestor.
-
or leader of nude protests...
-
I don't know if you're that lucky. ;D
-
I have a nude cat as an avatar...
-
What's the point of petting a hairless animal, anyway.
-
im not touching that with a 50 ft pole
-
How 'bout a 39 1/2 foot pole?
Did either of you locate Domenic yet? ;D
-
I would love to earn a Mistress of All Evil Prestige Class. I'm not sure how I would go about doing that. I guess I could set people on fire more often.
I think, in general, you should set people on fire more often just out of principle.
-
I dueled Ookla The Mok twice, and both times it took 11 matches to reach a winner. That's a pretty long fight, isn't it?
-
you don't need ftp access to change post counts. You can do that just by modifying someone's profile. However, to alter the title, you do need ftp access.
-
I would love to earn a Mistress of All Evil Prestige Class. I'm not sure how I would go about doing that. I guess I could set people on fire more often.
I think the prestige class for that would be "pyromaniac." Emphasis on the maniac. :)
-
you start it by setting fire to camel poop
-
excellent
-
You guys a scatalogically obsessed.
-
No, that's MoD.
-
obligitory but I thought she was a pyromaniac level-up post.
-
Great... so now Im Napoleon Dynamite...
"Frickin Idiots!"
-
She's a scatalogically-obsessed pyromaniac.
As for me...alas, no more swindling. That's okay - hopping across rooftops in the dark is much more fun! And I do it successfully!
-
Kije, I would set you on fire, but it only encourages you. ;D
-
I remembered the title I forgot, Journeyman Ditchdigger.
-
now you should forget it again..
-
To forget is to repeat the same mistake.
-
its also the best way to be pleasently surprised..
-
Well, I could think of a few more pleasing ways to be surprised than re-remembering what I purposely forgot. Like um... well, nevermind :innocent whistle:
-
Doh, double post... hit quote instead of modify.
-
he he..
-
Kije, I would set you on fire, but it only encourages you. ;D
I'm offended that Kije is getting credit due me. I'M the one who made the first poop reference.
/me sets MoD on fire for poor citation of references.
-
I'm a burglar - I steal everything, including credit.
-
I'm withdrawing my guardian angel protection from you then.
-
I'm withdrawing money from your bank account.
-
then you must have the wrong bank account, because there's never been any money in mine.
-
I never said this was the first time I'd done it.
-
I said "never" though. So you still must have the wrong account.
-
I'm offended that Kije is getting credit due me. I'M the one who made the first poop reference.
/me sets MoD on fire for poor citation of references.
But why would I want to set you on fire? Oh very well.
/me sets SaintEhlers on fire and zaps him with purple lightening
Do you feel loved now?
-
** Kije grins in satisfaction at having avoided a deserved flaming, purely through his notoriety
-
I think the word you are looking for is "obstinance."
-
/me reinacts the end of the Neibilungand cycle and sets everything on fire.
Burn, old gods, BURN!.
-
mmmmm, fire...:)
I like "obstinotorious"
-
** Kije grins in satisfaction at having avoided a deserved flaming, purely through his notoriety
/me sets Kije on fire for impertinance.
-
"obstinotorimpertinance"
** Kije grins again in satisfaction at having manipulated two separate people to set him on fire today.
-
look at me! I'm a naked baby with wings! wheeeeeeeeeeeeee!
wow, you're a gullible little masochist if you think we're doing this because you wanted us to and not because I felt like causing you harm.
-
Just in time for February, SE! I was hoping you'd get to this one in time....
-
The thing is, I've been set on fire so many times that it ceased causing me harm a long time ago.
-
nice change in argument there Kije ;)
-
Do you think if you got high enough level you'd start getting impressive titles, or even more insulting? I'm wondering if you reached level 1000, if it would say God's Creator or just "SPAM-MAN 1000" (with continuing 1001, etc from there on out).
-
Friend CherubEhlers: it does not matter why you ignite, only that you ignite.
-
well, then you can be happy, because I delight in causing you pain.
those around long enough will know that there is a pattern. You start to move between good and bad, then have periods of either. Right now I'm doing good ones, relatively speaking.
-
My current title (darkbane hero) is totally awesome. I'll have to remember that and use it for a character concept.
-
but what does it mean?
-
What do you mean, what does it mean? Hero who destroys dark.
-
or a hero of darkness who is your bain. Knowing Entropy its probably the second one...
-
Entropy is a student of honor--transformed by a freak accident, I believe, from once being a student of death. (Am I right on this count?)
So, I guess he's kind of like Blade or D--or maybe Spawn. Some kind of half-antihero who left undeath to become a hero, and now he tries to hunt down his once-companions. That would probably make Fell his arch-nemesis. (Since Fell's the highest-ranking Student of Death.)
-
Spawn, most assuredly, definitely, certainly, and in all other affirmative ways, Spawn. I noticed that earlier too by the way, and I was kind of wondering how he managed to do that.
-
Otherway around, afaik. I was a student of Divinity, and got transformed into a student of death. Kinda funny, and I believe I now have Fells stats. Something wonky happened when I changed my profile once.
-
Wait.
How did you become a Student of Honor, then?
Edit--The wonky thing happened when Fell edited your profile, taking out a picture with a curse word in it, I think. I hadn't considered that ability when I created the current mod of the forum, so by having him change your profile then 'save' it again, it imprinted his info onto you.
So, in a way, he like turned you into an evil clone of himself.
-
its a cunning ruse.
-
Oh. Wow. I just checked - I'm now a student of Honour. Thats hilarious. I'm like the jack of all trades, multiclassing to hell and back.
-
lol. Tage must have edited your profile for some reason. (He's a Student of Honor.)
Did you swear in your sig again?
Edit--It was JP. You have his stats now. Dang--I have to warn mods not to do that to people!
-
Ah, must have been when I put another sig image in. I need to remember that - whenever I get bored of my class, do something annoying.
-
Entropy the Chameleon...
-
I wonder how long I will be a hippie.
-
Yay now I can season Southwestern food!
-
My wife puts it in pizza sauce. I likes.
-
I put a rock in the coffee in your coffee mug.
-
Whoever's putting coffee in my coffee mug better stop. I use that strictly for Ramen and blueberry tea.
-
I use that strictly for Ramen and blueberry tea.
Ramen and blueberry? Ew.
Is my title supposed to be aviary keeper? I looked up Avery in the dictionary and apparently Avery is an American painter, influenced by the works of Henri Matisse.
-
not at the same time. That IS ew.
-
ok I'm a warden now. I still wonder why I was an Avery keeper.
-
because you have to get in on the ground floor...
-
Avery needs keeping, didn't you know that.
-
Exactly whose bodice are you burning Jeffe?
-
Im an equal opportunity Bodice liberator...
-
There is only one response to that . . .
EWWW!!
-
hey I didnt make the title, but I plan to enforce it...
-
I'm now taking bets over whether I'll still be a Cherub on Valentine's Day.
-
best not to post...
-
Wish I were a hampster-hurler...
*desperate attempts to level up before going offline tonight*
-
It will take a while I bet
-
So close :(
-
[size=10]HEY![/size]
I just went down two levels! What the heck happened! Aaaargh!
-
*And* you're a jailbird. Hmmm.
-
I think that was Tage's reprisal for your all-caps post.
-
Where?
-
one of the ones that MasterShake started. I'm too lazy to look it up. Probably in teh video games section.
-
I think that was Tage's reprisal for your all-caps post.
Well, it'll do no good if he doesn't TELL ME SO, Will it?
-
I believe it was in this thread that you posted, as did I, but someone deleted them: http://www.timewastersguide.com/boards/yabb/YaBB.cgi?board=movies;action=display;num=1107811713;start=15
-
no, it would be this post (http://www.timewastersguide.com/boards/yabb/YaBB.cgi?board=books;action=display;num=1106115329;start=7), where he DID tell you. Sorry, I was wrong, it wasn't in video games at all.
-
OH
-
Wow. Tage, that was a little extreme, don't you think? Skar was just playing along with the conversation, and two levels--that's a big deal.
-
not for me, it isn't.
Not that I want two levels taken away. I'm just sayin', is all.
-
:( I don't want to be repentant! Evil all the way!
>:(
-
hey at least you have a hobby...
-
Yours is at least interesting.
Repentence isn't a hobby, it's an affliction.
-
but getting to this place in the world took a lot of work
-
Well, you did chose "Student of Light Magic" when other options included "Student of Death," "Student of Dark Magic," and "Student of Deception."
You didn't expect to turn into a good guy?
-
I started keeping track of all the warfare titles, but I'm not sure I got the first ones right, since I was going off memory with them.

Well, not *expect* as such... I guess I thought I would take my normal route in life - begin with good intentions, and then get progressively more and more evil ;)
-
oh no no no. That's the student of divinity class path, gopher.
-
btw, I have less than 100 posts to go to not be the cherub on V-Day.
-
Better start rationing then...
-
Perhaps you'd level up to "Greater Cherub."
-
Or Cupid even.
-
I have deleted a post! Hadoken!
-
hUh wREER my eworDS gO!!!!!!!
-
Huh? Have we really had no posts on These Stupid Titles since Febuary?
-
We have had MANY. They're just in iteration V instead of IV. Locking.
