    It's ok! The world is not ending*. You can still post. Nor should you hold your breath for an imminent conclusion to these mysterious events.

    *quite yet

    Oh my god. It all makes sense now.

    We've had an earthquake. We're all from bird-related schools, the tentacle monster was kind of like a snake, and most of us took air transport to the island. (That's great it starts with an earthquake, birds and snakes and aeroplanes...)

    It is indeed the end of the world as we know it.

    Nute wins!

    Edit: if you don't mind, can I write that into the death post I'll almost certainly end up preparing for Dazzler?

    If this entire game was set up to make an R.E.M. joke, I swear to jeebus that I will end you roBurky.

    I just realised my last post could have been read in a manner I didn't intend. To be clear:
    There is no imminent conclusion. I'm going to bed. Goodnight!

    Just out of curiousity, does anyone remember offhand if any attack has ever been stopped by a shield in any of these games?

    Bladida successfully shielded Roburky before we found out his special power was being immune to everything in the last game, does that count?

    Hmmm... tough call but I'm gonna have to go with "No, that makes the shield double-extra-super useless," for that one.

    There is something rather ironic about it as well, but that will have to wait until the game is over.

    Citadel, Night 2, Staff Sergeant - I think? Can't find a mention of this in the game posts at the time, only in the retrospective, so I'm not sure what happened there.

    Read Ruins! Watch Speak get drunk and harass a bunch of people! Also, more doomed romance and me being Batman.

    Could you please be so kind as to remove that post and put in a funny image instead before I die of gin-fueled embarrassment?

    I'm completely serious, btw. Those quotes never needed to see the light of day again.
  26. Soli-chan Magister Mundi Elyscape

    OH THAT'S RIGHT I'D FORGOTTEN ABOUT THAT

    This is why I play the characters that are demented, ahahahahahaha~

    Well now he gets to see everyone else be equally if not more embarrassing. It'll spread the embarrassment around a bit (I just re-read a few really cheesy lines that I can't remember writing at all).

  30. Soli-chan Magister Mundi Elyscape

    Clearly the plot to make him read the thread for the thread's awesomeness itself is working! Great job guys, we've got another one!
    EDIT: Oh uh since Nebty's re-editing reminded me. I was in a work fuelled work haze back then. So there's my thing.

    I swear, the weird stuff happened at, like, 3:30 AM with all of us egging each other on in the off-topic thread (and the crotchety old men posting burn it with fire gifs).

    EDIT: I wonder where that slash fic thread ended up...

    Unrelatedly, I hope you realize that since you've killed off the robopope, it's up to you all to select a new one.

    From the current survivor pool.

    My money's on Lazy. "Suffering of millions? Om nom nom."
  33. Soli-chan Magister Mundi Elyscape

    Actually I do wonder at Nebty's story for how that progresses, should there be survivors of the end.
    Because yes, you have to put that in now that you mentioned it. It's a law.

    So I went back to see Ruins of Light's Glory to see my posts and WELP:
    First of all, NO REGRETS! I DIED WITH ROBURKY :D
    On the 34th page, as the 1337th post how grand~

    ....in Machinations I died on the 34th page. As the 1335th post. That's just fucking eerie, guys. <3

    This is why you let your popes retire, guys.

    Thanks! I was having a hard time deciding what my death avatar should be, and I'm still not quite sure. Here's the shortlist.

    [IMG] [IMG]

    #1: I like this one because of the similarity to my living avatar (the position of the head, as you can see) and the contrasting colour scheme.

    [IMG]

    #2 (the one I'm using now) : I like this one because of the metal embellishments on the face and the flaming tears, which look suitably demonic.

    [IMG]

    #3: I love this image but it doesn't crop well.

    Ohohoho, do you really want to hear it?
