How did you come up with your 'handle' (forum name)? "Susano" was my first email address (susano@digex.com) and I've used Susano ever since. Susano was selected since I was a huge fan of the manga Orion, and my friend who created the account used the name of one of the main characters for my handle. I've used "Susano" for my net handle ever since.

I just finished viewing Dog Soldiers, a soldiers versus werewolves movie. I found it liked it at lot, parts made me laugh, parts made me shudder, and parts made me say "that's not right...." I highly recommend it.
 
I also watched The Wizard of Oz over the weekend, for the first time. Rather fun, with some highly enjoyable sequences -- the flying monkeys were great! -- and the musical numbers are catchy. I also found it amusing to sort of "count" all the lines that have remained in popular use.

Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group...

The cast:
Captain Douglas Reginald Archibald Grant
Count Akira den Ulrike
Jenni Phan
Esther Okavango
 
Captain Grant: "I can give you a detailed plan of the Captain's activities, down to the quarter hour."
GM: "Save that for your Star Trek fanfic."
Jenni: "Captain, do we have to take the Kobayashi Maru test again?"
 
"Granny Smith Mensa Bar"
 
GM: "In this game, space hears you scream."
 
GM (speaking as an NPC): "If UTI hears I talked to you... I'll be getting cyber knees."
 
Jenni: "Uh oh, Sparky... busted."
 
Esther (OOC): "Sometimes when a shipping agent and a kleptomaniac love each other very much...."
 
Jenni OOC explains some new gear: "If you press this button, it goes *ping*."
 
Captain Grant (OOC): "I've let my hair down and gone out for hookers and blow."

Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group...
 
Yar's Cosmic Supers Game
In which 6 700-point PCs save the Earth from an alien invasion.
(It's basically an excuse to learn the ins and outs of 6E combat and toss around lots of dice.)
 
The Cast:
Sidewinder -- power-armor and lots of weapons
StarPower -- fire-using pop-singer
Gravitas -- gravity manipulator
Quantum Girl -- size changer, can go from a few inches in height to 100'
Bedlam -- the Absorbing Man meets Plastic Man meets Elemento
Force Majure -- basically Ultra Boy
 
Bedlam (OOC): I'm unconscious, so I can only see the inside of my eyelids.
Force Majure (OOC): I've seen you shape shift, I'm not sure you have eyelids.
 
Force comments on the feasibility of a tactic: "Well, if it worked for Doctor Who."
 
"The alternative press call [this form] Bondage Bedlam."
 
"Oh look, there's a 50-foot woman lying on the ground!"
 
Bedlam moves some miniatures: These guys are lying on top of one another.
Force: I didn't need to know that.
 
"The boots are made for squashing."
 
GM: "I never thought I'd say this.... the [single] mook goes."
 
"My brain Dodges."
 
Bedlam responds to an incoming attack: "This is gonna hurt."
 
StarPower to Quantum Girl: "What's with you and landing on people?"
 
We discover the alien boss is vulnerable to sonics. So StarPower hacks into the PA system in order to sing it to death. It's suggested she sing "Never Going To Give You Up." The GM asks her to make a PS: Singer Roll. The result? A "3."
"[starPower] just crited a rickroll!"
 
The GM rolls a 10d6 Aid to all Characteristics, and gets... 19.
 
Sidewinder on his ability to accomplish a task: "I will not make this roll!"
He rolled... a 3.
 
StarPower: "My General Ackbar senses are tingling... it's a trap!"

No, no... that's Per-vect!
 
Get it right, will you?

Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group...
 
Wound up being a character-brainstorming session since the GM didn't show up for his own game and didn't call and tell anybody, so nothing really juicy, but ...
 
"It's character brainstorming. It's mental masturbation."
"Mentalbation?"
"I like it."
 
"When you can snatch the Pentium chip from my hand, grasshopper ..."
 
"You named my character's beast-forms Multipower 'When Animals Attack'?"
 
"My guy owns a little dojo, with a nice, tranquil garden out back for meditation."
"Hey, then animal-guy can wander in from time to time and whiz on the topiaries ... an easy way for you two to know each other!"

Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group...
 
Today we had the first run of a new Champions campaign.
 
The cast consists of:
 
Zindika, who is an insect shamen
The Mighty Golias, who is basically a pint-sized Hercules
Polymer, who has stretching powers
Force Majure, who is basically Ultra-Boy
 
*Zindika arrives*
Golias (OOC): With your dashiki and little hat.
Force (OOC): What? He's Marion Barry?
Zindika (OOC): Well, without the drug addiction and 100 lbs. lighter.
 
Force (OOC): Golias has no Secret ID does he?
Golias (OOC): Oh, hell no!
 
Zindika: Hello, I am Zindika. (Repeated over and over)
 
Force: You can surrender now or we're gonna have Golias talk you to death.
 
Force: Maybe if we punch (the supervillain) to the outside (of the building), we can claim they came in this way? (Force's plan on how to explain all the property damage.)
 
Reaction to hearing Polymer's SFX for his entangle: "I bukkake for justice!"
 
(Please don't ask what bukkake is....)

Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group...
 
Starting session of the new "Shadows Angelus" game.
 
Nestor (OOC about the team sorceress): "I am Jamadagni Renuka. You are very impressed."
 
Ross (the GM) describes a NPC that looks a lot like David Lopan from BTILC.
Jamadagni Renuka's player (OOC): Oh, crap! My character has green eyes! I'm screwed!"
 
Nestor on Tyger, the human/cat cross: "I'm your worst nightmare. A clade with a badge!"
 
Burton (team scientist): "We should wear helmets to defend against mind control."
Carpenter (team paladin): "I hope I'm not allergic to tinfoil."
Tyger: "I'm not wearing a colander on my head."
Burton (looks at Carpenter's sword): "I'm not the one using 12th Century technology."
 
Ross (the GM): *holds up a drawing of the monster on the map*
Yar: "Is that to scale?"
Ross: "Not quite."
Yar: "Thank God."
