We're within the last hour - you capes need to less literal!

Not good enough - if you were a mad scientist with any sense of self worth and style, you'd have a giant clock in your secret lab counting down the minutes and seconds until the forums go down

What a word to mis-read...
The wisdom of Shadowe: Ghostraptor: The Shadowe is wise ...; FFM: Shadowe is no longer wise.
; Techbot_Alpha: Also, what Shadowe said. It seems he is still somewhat wise ; Bull Throttle: Shadowe was unwise in this instance...; Rock_Powerfist: in this instance Shadowe is wise.; Techbot_Alpha: Shadowe is very wise *nods*; Zortel: *Quotable line about Shadowe being wise goes here.*
Re: Forum merge; I for one was actually looking forward to Illusion_Master Vs. Unique_Dragon...
Kinda like the Unstoppable force meets the Immovable object in some highly dangerous High Octane linguistic physics and logic experiment.
BadOOoOM !!!

Webster the spider? Who bastardised the English language and then went on to set up Arachnos?
BTW - Are you going to try keeping up your talk about sticky wickets? Can you explain how the game works when you run back and forth between two lines rather than around a diamond?
[/ QUOTE ]
Well apparently the wicket at Edgbaston is "like jelly" according to Steve Rouse, the Warwickshire groundsman. So I imagine only the cream of the players will find success there and should not be trifled with, and any pitch invaders will be remanded in custard.
Edit to add that the Americans have successfully forgotten that they played cricket until the their civil war - when they adopted baseball because they only then needed a rifle butt and a ball

Ahh, but what a perfect opportunity to use this:
[ QUOTE ]
you have 2 sides; a team that's in and a team that's out.. two men in the team that's in go out and when one of the men who's in is out; the next man goes in until he's out. When they are all out; the side that's out comes in and the side that's been in goes out and tries to get those coming in, out. Sometimes you get min still in and not out.
When a man goes out to go in; the men who are out are trying to get him out; and when he is out he goes in and the next man in goes out and goes in. There are two men called umpires who stay out all the time and they decided when the men who are in are out. When both sides have been in and all the men have been out; and both sides have been out twice after all the men have been in, including those who are not out, that is the end of the game.

I feel what we need to create is our very own Uxbridge English Dictionary to really let our US friends know what we mean.
Definitions such as;
Bedlam; A very favourite sheep
or
farcical: a bike that makes you look like an idiot
or even
lackadaisical: a bicycle made for one.

Giving you all a healthy does of optimistic cynicism:
The EU Roleplay and Creative boards will be decimated in the transfer, possibly along with comics and culture.
More of the US posts will survive than EU posts (as a percentage)
Any loss of EU posts will be passed off as unrecoverable due to transfer tech error. Likely that they just weren't transfered.
Prepare for the worst, if better comes then be plesantly surprised! Protect and Survive!

Didn't he:[*] change to the_Phantoms (unsure about capitalisation and the underscore) about a year or more ago[*] make a leaving thread about 4 or so months ago[*] made a 'returning' thread about 1 month after his leaving thread
Been quiet for a while, so he may have left again - which is bit of a shame as his guides were almost inspired genius if they hadn't been serious...

!!! - he changed it to The_Phantoms didn't he! - he's left / transmogrified again?
He'll always be Illusion_Master to me!, bless his heart.

Why would there be an EU roleplaying section at all? Or a Creative. You can start EU specific threads in the relevant new Roleplaying section can't you?

Maybe not in your Uxbridge English Dictionary, but I feel that the following may be relevant to at least some post-merge posts.

I'd feel pretty gutted personally if we lost any of the compilation threads on popular subjects we've been building as a community.
... although I fully expect Animal_Mutha's "Champions MMOG" thread to suffer some sort of catastophic and irretreivable error on the Data transferral. *Sniggers
