^ < V Game

[oren]

^poor baby

< is off to a Halloween event. yay! *does dance*

V is just as amazed as < that this thread has 1000 posts

[Caden Law]

^ Should remember to bring condoms and lube.

< Will violate the next poster with the power of surprise.

v Will probably waddle.

[Irene]

^ has violated the most ethnically diverse woman in all of althanas.

< Has summoned her Minotaur to return the favor.

V is ^ apologizing and begging < to take the minotaur away.

[Caden Law]

^ Liked it.

< Is unapologetic.

v Is cringing in horror as < does awful things to the minotaur, most of which involve bread, ketchup, mustard and mayo.

[Irene]

^ Doesn't know that mistreatment of a minotaur like that makes one's manhood rot away and fall off.

< Is trying to figure out how to explain this to the bosses, most of whom demanded < remain pure.

V wishes < good luck, as V wonders who the bosses are.

[Crystal Suncrest]

^ has more to explain to the bosses than just that. Her battle wirh a certain fairy is getting ugly, fast.

<Might have violated the minotaur in her last post.

V understtands.

[oren]

^ Heh?

< Is clueless. Needs a hint.

V happens to play the game.

[Fotiadis110]

^ there is no game
< there is no game
v laughs because < tells a joke to change the subject from violated minotaurs...

A businessman boarded a plane to find, sitting next to him, an elegant woman wearing the largest and most stunning diamond ring he had ever seen.
He asked her about it. 'This is the Klopman diamond,' she said 'It is beautiful, but there is a terrible curse that goes with it.'
'What's the curse' the man asked.
'Mr Klopman.'

[Crystal Suncrest]

^ told an okay joke.
< laughed... maybe
v is posting next

[Torin Reahkari]

^ Has the best weapon.

< Is inventing the pre-packaged Sloppy Joe.

v Had an affair with the spouse of their mothers only child.

[Kially Gaith]

^ ...Too early...Cannot...Compute
< Wishes for caffiene
V Has caffiene and will most likely not share it.

[Karla]

^ Will compute it for you. your mother's only child is you, and therefore the spouse of your mother's only child is your spouse, so what was basically said was you had an affair with your own spouse O_o

< wants to ask ^ why he hasn't posted in the thread 'A cathedral in need' recently, but thinks it may be pointless because < hasn't seen the other person who posted in that threadaround for at least a week.

V is surprised at how long this thread is.

[Kially Gaith]

^ Is right to ask.
< *Owes Bleeter a post, The Smuggler a post and you a post* - I'm waiting for the Christmas holidays. Been busy with my hacking/SQL/Business analysis assignments for my degree. That reminds me. Need to PM Bleeter and apologize for letting him down. Drop me a PM on here, I'll explain the situation regarding my post for you.
V Is bored by my awesome lack of something witty.

[Torin Reahkari]

^ Will compute it for you. your mother's only child is you, and therefore the spouse of your mother's only child is your spouse, so what was basically said was you had an affair with your own spouse O_o

Glad someone got it. :p

^ Needs to be more witty!
< Needs more stuff to post in!
v Needs to stop sleeping with Arséne!

[Crystal Suncrest]

^ Needs to stop Spying on me and Arsene
< Was hoping the news wouldn't get out
V was hoping < would deny it.

[Caden Law]

^ Would have been kind in denying it.

< Is now busy trying to contemplate the mechanics of a 6 inch fairy and a full-grown man having sex with one another. Is not coming up with very many Pleasant Answers.

V Will hopefully have better luck.

[Florian]

^ Is...Interesting. o.o;

< Doesn't want to have better luck, and should post sometime, on a side note.

v Can think of something funny/witty to put here.

[oren]

^^^ ...

^^ what the...

^ Are you serious.

< Eh... will back away from anything not physically possible and... go to... uh.... china for the week...?

v will come up with something witty for ^

[Camella]

^^ wants witty
^ wants witty too.
< has one witty story. It's a true one too.

I was doing WoW PvP the other day. (I'm not an addict or anything, I play 2 days a week, at most and 4 hours a day at most.) Anyway, I was in this PvP when a Night Elf killed me. I normally don't pay much attention to the names of who kills me, but this one caught my attention. The name of the Night elf that killed me: Witchblade

(I had to check, just to be sure it wasn't our Witchblade. It isn't.)

V Thinks I probably shouldn't have mentioned WoW on Althanas

[Caden Law]

^ Rolls Whorde.

< Just killed NaNo with hellfire. Then conquered the Wide World of Media Presentations in time for tomorrow.

v Can come up with three words for the letter M.

[Temptress]

< is no longer drinking strawberry soda

[Caden Law]

^ Is a Warhammeresque Dark Elf instead of a D&D Drow.

< Used the strawberry soda as part of a virgin sacrifice to the Omnicidal Murder-God of Backflipping Headbutts and Exploding Lambchops.

V Was the virgin sacrifice. Liberties may have to be taken to make this work...

[Crystal Suncrest]

^ will need to take lots of liberties
< was supposed to be the virgin sacrifice, but not only wasn't a virgin when the time came, but drank all the strawberry soda, and then found out she was too small for the sacrisice anyway, and was released unharmed.
V is confused on why < was picked as the virgin sacrifice in the first place.

[Huntress]

^ is unconcious because < conked her on the head with the strawberry soda glass
< is in jail for unwarranted assualt with ^'s empty glass
v has bailed < out of jail

[Temptress]

^ has been bailed out and is rampaging around with a fork stolen from Crystal
< is broke because < lost all of <'s money bailing ^ out
v will give < all of their money.

[Rebellion]

^ has ideas of grandeur if ^ thinks there's anyway in hell I'm payin' her for the crappy sex last night.
< Has returned.
V Doesn't give a damn. :D

v is warm and snug like a bug in a rug (is this how you say it?)

[Caden Law]

^ Is an oompa-loompa

< Has finals tomorrow.

V Will be there with pompoms whether they like it or not.

[Inkfinger]

^ Is going to kill finals with a rusty chainsword

< is waving pom-poms rather listlessly and looking for pistachios.

V will do <'s trig final for <

[Chandra]

^ Should be very careful. I saw Witchblade playing with pistachios on the side while making cookies for newcomers.

< Is wondering why ^ has easy access to pom-poms...

v Thinks I'm hot. Don't deny it, bitch!

[Caden Law]

^ Is hot enough to pass for female. With some alterations.

< Has a knife, a power drill, and a surgically transplantable baboon's vagina.

V Likes where this is headed.

[Bloodrose]

^ is a master of the absurd.

< Is like Herpes. Goes away for a while, but always comes back with a vengeance!

V is made uncomfortable by STD references.

[noodleguy]

^ can see the future

< should be doing work

V is procrastinating

[Grammar_police]

^ Should be doing work, but has found something far more interesting to do

< is not procrastinating. either prostating... or procreating... or proofreading, but not procrastinating

V knows what ^ is doing, and will tell in the most detailed way possible.

[Tainted Bushido]

^ Is plotting to Duel < but doesn't knwo how to ask.

< Is sharpening his blade and honing his Kata.

\/ Is selling tickets to < and ^ duel.

[Huntress]

^ is very close to whacking < with now-honed attacks.
< is backing away from the crowds of rabid fans of ^ and ^^.
v is laughing their ass off.

[Raimeiken]

^ is compelled to buy tickets
< asks around for money to buy said tickets
v ....um, is eating blueberry cheesecake?

[Taskmienster]

^ doesn't know I hate cheesecake

< Thinks half the people's posts, involving the arrows, makes it look like DDR

V Probably likes DDR -_-

[Raimeiken]

^ unbelievable! Doesn't like cheesecake?!
< has Dub-I-Dub from DDR 2nd Remix as an archnemesis
v eats vanilla pudding instead of cheesecake

[Huntress]

^ is wrong, and has <'s butterscotch pudding on their head because of it.
< is pouting because of the loss of said pudding.
v thinks < would beat ^ in a Jell-o eating race.

[Ranger]

^ yeah... too many deserts mentioned.

< is muchly afeared of jello... seriously.

V probably finds that strange or funny.

[Caden Law]

^ Once killed 52 Taiwanese midget assassins in a drunken bar room brawl in downtown Belfast. The results were on Youtube for ten minutes, before Godhand's left testicle collaborated with the CIA to have them removed. Unbeknownst to all involved, Bloodrose's beard commissioned the hit.

< Was the one who Youtubed it.

V Helped to break < out of a CIA torture cell with nothing but dental floss and wooden ladel.

[Huntress]

^ is incorrect. < used dental floss, a wooden ladle, and a botox injection.
< now has a wrinkle-free face, and a spot on the CIA's most wanted list.
v is wondering how a vertically challenged female used dental floss, a ladel, and Botox to crack a CIA torture cell.

[Petra]

^ won't need to have reconstructive surgery
< ...??
v answers the question using super clairvoyance!

[Krista]

^doesn't want to know the answer

[oren]

^ & ^^... Doushite...

< Is really amazed this game hit 1000+ posts. Hee.

V will not reply in Japanese. PLEASE.

[Xos]

^Is surprised to see me return.

< Does not know Japanese and so cannot reply in it.

V Wants to know what zany adventures I'm going to cook up next for my characters.

[Taskmienster]

^ Not really, lol

< somehow understood the Japanese, though only taught himself the language which is why it's a surprise

V didn't care about what < just said.

[Inkfinger]

^Is 100% correct!

<Is overloading on Neil Gaiman interviews on youtube!

v Is a homicidal psycho jungle cat!

[Damion Shargath]

[Xos]

^Is in need of therapy.

< Is a Homicidal Thunderbird.

V is in awe of <'s divine majesty.

[Caden Law]

^ Is correct.

< Is in awe.

Which is why V is handing < an elephant gun, so that said awe may be preserved for generations to come!

(and also, KFT, baby. KFT.)

[Crystal Suncrest]

^ will recieve what they asked for.

Oops, never mind.

< Misheard and gave ^ an elephant and KFC.

v could easily find a use for both.

[Savas Tigh]

^ Borked the order, dammit!

< Is loading the elephant with KFC in an unlikely bid to create an Elephant Chicken Gun.

V Is scared shitless of what may happen next.

[Ebivoulya]

^ killed my pa.

< has a dead pa.

V was born with three nipples.

[Satin]

^Shouldn't go around telling secrets. one of those nipples was surgically removed because it was in the worst possible place.

< Wants to know how ^ found out... Pervert.

v Wants to know where the third nipple is now.

[Huntress]

^ later discovers that < recieved the third nipple by donation after a freak accident involving KFC and an elephant gun.

< is happy because she has two nipples again.

v wonders why < even needs two nipples...

[Xos]

^ has a complete set of niupples?

< wonders if The Quantum Loop Theory can be reconciled with The theory of Relativity via the trans-regressional jump theory.

V has spent several minutes researching all three theories, before realizing < made at least one, if not two of those up on the spot, unless < is a really good guess. V further realizes that < was typing ICly.

[MinzigFrish]

^ is either an uber genius, or some whack job who makes people THINK ^ is an uber genius
< is somewhat confused, but is trying to play it cool so no one can tell and they all think that < is an uber genius too
V needs a new pair of trousers because ^s cat chewed a whole through Vs last pair (sorry dood)

[Nightstalker]

< will Ninja ^^'s cat! >:(

V Knows ^^ does not in fact, own just any old cat, but a full grown Siberian white Bengal Tiger, and wishes < luck.

[Damion Shargath]

^ Eats children.

< Eats children. Makes his wild housebroken beast hunt them.

v Eats children.

[oren]

^ knows as well as < does that children are tasty. mmm... children...

< Has gone into psycho work mode that < is folding laundry and eating roasted child just so < DOESN'T touch the completed portfolio requirements right next to <.

V Loves Sugar Gliders and wishes they lived near a place where they sell them so V could get one as a pet. If all things fail V will go live in Australia, and get a permit just to own a Sugar Glider.

[Xos]

^ is partially correct, < loves sugar gliders, but not as pets.

< tends to dip them in wet concrete to make statues!

V knows < needs to try harder to be disturbing, but V doesn't know about the future of Rahegalhoff...

[Ebivoulya]

V is gonna get laid by or on valentines day.

[oren]

< One doesn't want any and two even if < did not likely since < is probably going to go psycho by valentines day because of pre-portfolio anxiety.

Edit: Seriously I'm rocking back and forth at the moment trying to calm down, and it's not gonna get any better after I hand my portfolio.
Edit 2: Portfolio is due in 3 weeks. Figures I'd go nuts now.

V finds anxiety attractive.

[Strickland]

^ Knows < way too well. HOW?!
< is moving to Philadelphia.

[Rahegalhoff]

^ Keeps others up past their bedtime.

< Does not hate 4 A.M. < is too busy workin' it at 4 A.M. to hate it.

V Has cooties >.> <.<

[Fotiadis110]

^ smells dunny, perhaps it's the demon

< is fresh from a shower, so no cooties :p

V wants a hug from a random stranger?

[Aiko]

^ Should know the last person that tried that got a restraining order in return.

< Is still regretting giving the new neighbor lady a hug.

V Is hoping I'm lying.

[Lord Anglekos]

^ Nope.
< Has done the same mistake, sans the restraining order.
V realizes, or has just realized, that Althanas is made from really, really creepy people.

< is glad he planned ahead
v is sad they forgot theirs?

[Xos]

^Is good at planning.

< Is in the mood to give a long and lengthy sermon.

V is in the mood to flee <'s sermon.

[Fotiadis110]

^ got that wrong, and was confused when
< turned the Sermon into a debate with ^ and < started pushing ^ back with sheer conceptual flaws in the sermons structure...
v quaked in terror as < and ^ argued about a point that had no purpose in ^^^'s life neither v's life because the sermon was based with no purpose in mind.

[Ebivoulya]

v will never be the same again

[Fotiadis110]

^ got beat by the law

< built a machine that would beat the law

V is amazed by the combination of combine harvester, tractor forklift, and hybrid engine from the latest bulldozers, and how many cops stand still before the spinning blades of DOOOM!

[The International]

^Is a diabolical villain who just so happens to be a cute ass bird.

<Would love to count how many cops were stupid enough to just stand there... but there are none. Maybe ^ should think his diabolical plans though. You remind me of Lex Luthor when he was a mad scientist and not a corporate fat cat.

v Thought this was America, damn it! Who the hell's going to tell you about you?

...Suck it dry!

[Alydia Ettermire]

^ Is a noob.

< Can, but won't.

v Probably will offer help to ^

[Ailnea]

^Should know by know that the greatest help comes from within.

< Gives ^^ a strange rainbow colored pill to help him understand

V Wonders where < Got the pill and where V can get it too.

[The International]

^ Is a Althanas' neighborhood pusher.

< Understands that ^^ is a hater, on that hater pill, drinkin' hella haterade. For what reason < doesn't know because ^^ is frickin' level 9 and the most legendary active player on the site. ^^ must have forgotten what it's like to be new.

V Can help a bitch figure out how to deal with Continuity in his quests, which < thinks might end up being an issue.

[Alydia Ettermire]

^ just needs to put a little bit of why you're there in the first few posts of his story, and then a strong sense of what he's doing next in the last post or so to make a decent bit of Continuity.

Setting is <'s main problem, even if she actually DOES know how to work it. < just has a hard time finding a place to put it in among everything else except in certain scenarios.

V has a problem with Pacing.

[Ebivoulya]

^ guessed right

< thinks its an acceptable sacrifice

v does not, however

[Christoph]

^ Does need to hurry up and get to the point when writing.
< Apparently jumped into this thread at a good time.
V Also has good timing.

[Aiko]

^ is right, < has a marvelous sense of timing.

< But <'s main problem is finding <'s character's voices, getting a handle on them, getting to know them better. But < has found at least one, if not two or three character's voices now, and expects to begin doing better with them.

V has realized < has just opened up on a personal level for the very first time on the site.

[Lord Anglekos]

^ doesn't realize < doesn't care. Well, didn't realize until now.

V is busy with something else...

[Christoph]

^ posts here too much
< doesn't post here enough
V likes the letter Q.

[Ebivoulya]

^ has been fondled

< does not, in fact, like the letter Q

v will save this thread from dying with his or her shenanigans

[Yari Rafanas]

^ Should have said "bananagins"

< Won the Vignette deal. Omg zombies

v probably wants me to take their stuff.

[Nightstalker]

^Will be ninja'd by a real life ninja hired from Japan if ^ takes any of <'s character's stuff without a contractual agreement signed and witnessed by the entire population at least 39 different countries one of which must be China and the other India, blessed by the pope, and hexed in a dark voodoo ritual.

< May or may not be jesting.

V Knows < has been gone awhile and missed <. V also knows < was jesting, but is still in shock over the concept < mentioned to ^

[Caden Law]

^ Is correct.

v Thinks I'm a nerd for it.

[Aiko]

^Has played a game < is unfamiliar with

<Is playing Russian Roulette with Superman

V Knows no mere person can beat Superman at Russian Roulette, especially since Superman was playing by himself, with a fully loaded gun, and just won.
