I've just started playing GR, and I find myself mainly wanting to go off and start my own society that ignores all these dilrods, but that's not an option so far.
So instead I'm going to shoot people and destroy stuff. Almost as good! -
She seems to be at odds with her own mindset. On one hand, she says heroes aren't as heroic any more, and sadly, as more of a Silver Age fan myself, I think there's some truth to that. On the other hand, she seems to be against aggression in a very "let's join hands and sing kumbaya," PC kind of way (and IMHO, a lot of what man has carved out for himself has been due to our dynamic, aggressive nature, rather than this notion of "can't we all just get along").
I just hope that none of this silliness was funded by Uncle Sucker... -

Fair enough. But what about the maitre d's in the Pizza Huts in Vancouver? -

They are from Triumph. The band not the server.
Oh and Troy, while you were away Arcanaville made a math error. (Or is that lie going too far?) -

His girlfriend Praetoria slept with the casting director.
I'm still trying to figure out why the maitre d's in the Pizza Huts in Vancouver don't wear pants. -
So far I understand everything about this thread except why there's a new version of Soylent Green starring Enrique Iglesias...

Cyrus Thompson is a non-combat pet that follows you around and makes folksy comments on your alignment/morality choices.

I'm going to need to wear pants now?

Quote:You'd be pretty monstrous, too, if Vancouver shops were selling your plush figures for 85% off (and Miga and Sumi have it even worse!).Originally Posted by Dysmal
Edit: Also, Quatchi is now a giant monster wandering through the city. -
Quote:Hmmm, given my rapid aging, I will soon have flowing white hair (unless it all falls out first), and I'm a pretty fair shot with a bow. My ears are not pointy, though I do have abnormally large lobes. My sworn enemies are dorks, and if I were to jump into a boat, the only place I'd end up going is Davey Jones's locker (where he kept his tambourine).Originally Posted by Aliana Blue
Okay. In this expansion, Hickman has long flowing white hair, pointy ears, and a great shot with the bow. His sworn enemies are orcs, and in the last arc he jumps into a boat and sails into the distance, never to be seen again (until he rerolls).

Quote:Not interested. I play these games for FANTASY...Originally Posted by BBQ_Pork
Also: In Preatoria, Hickman is known for being talented, handsome and well-groomed. -

Heroes got renewed and the comments from the CaH/VC threads will scroll on the bottom of the screen. The person with the pithiest comment for the week gets to decide who lives and who dies. And gets a puppy. And a braunschweiger sandwich with onions and yellow mustard.
And my bologna with peanut butter.
And my funnybooks with sea monkey ads... -

Vancouver has been declared a "No Hickman Zone".

Quote:I don't know who this "Praetoria" is, but you shouldn't say such things about her...Originally Posted by DarkGob
Praetoria is super-easy

Quote:Aha, the version they originally nixed!Originally Posted by SwellGuy
They reversed Twilight's Son arc for Praetorian Ouroboros. Now you kidnap the targets and sacrifice them to Tyrant.

OK, so I just got back last night from Vancouver (where I was sick as a dog for three weeks, unfortunately), and I'm jonesing to play some CoH (which I will do when I get done teaching my last class today).
So tell me (keeping in mind the thread), what's new that I can expect when I log in? -

Noooooo! Why did you have o summon Roy Hickman!?
P.S. I said "strech" and "pokey"...heheh... -

I'm the head of the Beagle Division. Come to me for all your little dog needs... -
Quote:Actually, I'm typing this from a little internet cafe in Vancouver owned by an old Persian fellow who probably would rather have me keep my pants on (I guess I could ask him, but his English is pretty spotty and we might end up getting a loft together).Originally Posted by RobertoLyon
Actually y'know now that I think about it, Psychoti's right - you really DON'T want to "see it all", especially if "all" has anything to do with our beloved Troy Hickman and his notorious predeliction for playing (and posting) sans-pants.

Gratz to SS!
And gratz to me on my ridiculous post count (#10,000). I'd like to thank ACTFs, Controller Forums, Lost, Heroes, Movies and Troy Hickman for my post count.
(There is no Forum Cartel.........shhhhhhhhhhh.)
I AM your padding! -
Quote:Actually, I was almost glad it happened in a way. I remember a thread some years back when someone (jokingly, I think) suggested that I must get special treatment because of the comics and such. I guess this proves just what an egalitarian game this is!Originally Posted by Melancton
Marvel threatened to sue again over infringement, I take it.
On the other hand, I have a character who is at something like level 20 whose name is now a bunch of numbers.
I got a rock. -
Quote:Oh, if only you could post sounds on these boards, I'd make it sound like a wacky morning drive-time radio team.Originally Posted by Melancton
Presumably she hails from Bassoon?
(The reference is to Deja Thoris, the main squeeze of John Carter, Warlord of Mars... Mars being known as Barsoom to the natives there.)
I also enjoy silly or satiric names. Of course, when you broach this topic, it invariably attracts the attention of Troy Hickman, who is a master of such names. But he also gave us Cyrus Thompson and the "Smoke and Mirrors" arc in the CoH comic, so he does have a serious side as well.
Barsoom sounds like a euphemism, btw, as in "Man, look at the barsooms on that babe!"
Here's a link to a piece on my blog about my punny CoH characters, by the way. You'll notice some of 'em ended up in my Guest Architect arc, and one, Major Feminine Itching, was genericed by the folks upstairs. Let that be a lesson to me! -
You should at least limit it to times when I'm not on the can.
Where's the toilet paper? -
Hiya, Danny! Good to have you with us!
Don't listen to these people. They've been drinking wood alcohol.
