Hmmm, I seem to be Embattled now. This may take awhile. 
News:
Max is a Shadowblade, a supernatural--and supernaturally competent--warrior bound to protect her witch Giselle. As a Shadowblade, Max doesn't age. She is better, faster, stronger than any ordinary human being. And she hates it. Giselle betrayed her trust to make Max what she is, and though she is magically compelled to protect Giselle and follow orders, Max works against her witch in every way she can.

I agree with Rand being up there as a bad thing. He is easily more powerful than all the others, Dark One aside, who I also discount due to the fact that he's almost a god (power-wise). Rand would most likely, as others have put it better than I, lay waste to everyone before they really even had a chance to do anything.

« on: February 20, 2009, 04:28:13 AM »Hmm, what's this about a new coalition forming? Well I suppose I will be in it, having not posted with the same tenacity that everyone else has these past few weeks.
Wait a second here. I feel some remorse for not having posted in almost a month. I haven't had the opportunity to catch up on all the past posts. What "New Coalition"I don't like the way this sounds. Why is there a need for a new one? Did the old one disband? I should hope this "New" coalition is not comprised of people leaving the Woodland Coalition (the only real coalition) because if it is then I may have to put my mercenary skills to good use hunting down traitors and the leadership of said "New" coalition.
Well, it is safe to say that quite a lot of people from the original coalition have now exceeded me in rank by A LOT. Perhaps a new coalition forms with the waves of new people coming to this site regularly. Who knows where a bored servant like myself might end up, eh?

My brother turned me on to this band called Dredg.

I dunno what it is about that song, but it just haunts me. In a good way, of course.

Brandon Sanderson / Re: RE Entertainment signs deal with EA
« on: February 19, 2009, 09:21:45 AM »They probably plan on a one game per movie type of thing. Just as is done with the Harry Potter movies/games. In my experience, such movie-based games are usually a quite boring version of the movie were you'll have to walk through the story yourself.
But who knows, maybe they'll do better
Movies dont make good games... Games dont make good movies..... Fact!
I dunno, I really enjoyed the Silent Hill movie, and that was based off of a game. Again, it is all opinion. I just happen to like a lot of things other people don't. A fact would require unanimous agreement on whatever the subject was.

« on: February 16, 2009, 09:28:03 AM »QuoteI'm listening to Les MiserablesI LOVE that play!!!!!! I LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT sooooo much!!! The work song and part where they're like 'my name is JEAN VALJEAN!!!' 'and I'm Javert! Do not forget my name! Do not forget me, 24601!' AWESOME!!!!!!
I saw this weird version I forget the name for it but it's like when it's on a stage ( I saw it off a disc), people are all around, and the actors are on the stage, but the main ones don't really move around. There are the ensembles that move around, and sometimes characters do, too, but the main ones mostly just stand at floor-microphones and sing and act there (the orchestra and chorus is completely visible in the back). But anways, the guy who played Jean Valjean in that version got payed $51 MILLION!!! Crazy, right??
That would most likely be the 10th Anniversary Concert with Colm Wilkinson as Jean Valjean. I just re-watched it the other day.
I'm a stickler for musicals.

The 90's was the pinnacle of one-hit wonders.
Probably my favorite was "All for You" by Sister Hazel.

I've recently rediscovered my dad's vinyl collection, so I have been rocking out to some Jethro Tull, Zepp and Floyd.
Rock on.

Well that was...interesting. Sorta reminds me of this:

From last year, but almost spat out my drink when I read the headline in the newspaper.

My brother saw an advanced screening the other night and he thought it was a pretty awesome movie. I might have to check this out. Now whether or not I'm going to dish out the insane money to see it is another matter.

« on: February 06, 2009, 06:45:58 PM »In response to the earlier comment about how a regular shovel isn't as useful as the metaphorical one if your in a pit with steel walls and all that, I still disagree. The metaphorical shovel is a metaphor, and therefore doesn't physically exist. I prefer the physical shovel. Besides, how did I dig myself a pit like that in the first place? It can't be that deep. I'll just stand on my handy dandy shovel and hop out...
Shaggy, I'm proud of you for escaping. I am now going to theoretically curse you just for fun....
So you were buried under the ground and rose up. Zombie!

Wow. That's....um....a lot of laughing. It's actually kind of creepy. Almost.
And why am I not surprised that you would make that kind of a claim? You can't just say you are an Absolver and then BAM! Be an Absolver. It doesn't happen like that. You have to truly be invested in the interests of the people you're going to serve. And you have to have enough time to devote yourself solely to them and their sins. Can you do that? They voted you in to be their Hero of Ages, and you ended up being a tyrant, the Lord Ruler. How can you blame us for teaming up to overthrow someone like yourself? You've turned your back on the people. We fight for the people. The people give us power now, since they obviously can't trust you.
Tyrant's make their own rules.
On that note, being bored is in fact becoming boring.

He was a fairly famous composer/conductor of classical music.

« on: January 19, 2009, 11:34:50 PM »Wow, thanks guys. Thanks to you, I have all kinds of things to do while I am stuck being a gardener and feel much more fulfilled.
1) Watch grass grow and keep track of apprentices.
2) Figure out all the moral implications of throwing veggies at various people because the absolver is corrupt.
3) Figure out how to prove that the absolver is corrupt to the general masses so we can all shun her.
4) Genetically alter veggies so they have legs and can withstand brawler attacks.
5) Solve world hunger. Tell no one.
Anything else? (Full points if you get the movie reference
Grinch.
And is it right to mess with the balance of things and alter veggies?!
