I like the whole event, for the most part. But what I can't figure out is why the halloween badges are listed first in your list there. The badges otherwise seemed to be listed most general to most specific before and I would imagine that these are hyperspecific, being restricted to baddies that are seldom around. Instead I'm going to have to scroll past them every time to get to something else. What's up with that? (Maybe their position on the list will change after the event. Search me.)

Youre kidding right?

You have to scroll past 6 badges??? OH THE HUMANITY!!!!

Maybe we should send someone over to your home, to hook up a catheder, install a fridge right next to your chair, and hire someone to do all your grocery shopping for you, so that you will never have a reason to leave the position you are in right now. Once a month we'll make sure someone comes over and hoses you down, too, so that the stench doesnt buildup too bad.

This is actually Manticore's fourth post. Next time, make sure you blank out the "show only up to last week" part.

I already covered the mistake I made, like 2 posts after the first, but you were right about the search thing. So i did it again, with no restrictions, only 3 posts, hmmm?

I think there is a Dev only forum somewhere.

Yeah youre right, he has 8 posts, so somewhere he has, but I still think he could be Statesman's alt. We all have them so why wouldnt he?

Go back a couple pages for further info, it's already been discussed in this thread extensively.

Hey, I spotted the Treasure Island thing yesterday. Ain't I 'stute too?

[/ QUOTE ]

Bah! Prove it!

I was just kidding, jealous that I am never 'stute


Posted in two other Issue #3 threads - one with a clever reference to pirate and barrels (if I'd put in the roole of cabin boys in Equator ritual CuppaJo would have had to delete the post).

PS - and if the reference is, as others noted, to a chapter in one of P.G. Wodehouse's novels about Bertie Wooster and Jeeves (Love Among The Chickens), that may still be a scarier option.

Well, issue two was called "A Shadow of the Past", which just so happened to be the title of the second chapter of "The Fellowship of the Ring". Oh, and "Eastgate" is referenced as being part of Moria in the world of LoTR.

So, going by the theory that the chapter titles refer to great works of literature, I did a little research into the new title: Issue 3 A Council of War.

The only thing I could come up with is Treasure Island. Chapter 12 (1 plus 2 equals 3?) of Treasure Island is called Council of War.

So, is this title a hint at the possibility of a water zone? Perhaps pirate villains? Or some sort of treasure?

Just some speculation I'll put out there. Enjoy.

Very astute.

I have never seen Manticore in here before, and he talks too much like Statesman...

Coincidence...?

or

Personality Disorder...?

Am I missing something here, I don't see a previous post here from less than 11 days ago! Did it take you that long to get power? And as far as I know there hasn't been a "special event" yet. Unless you count issue 2 and the invasions, which lasted all of 3 days.
