Re: Longest Running Thread EVER We need to bring new life to this thread. Any ideas?

Re: So, what would be the impact of... It's the end of the world as we know it, It's the end of the world as we know it, It's the end of the world as we know it, And I feel fine (as long as I get to be one of the 750+ supers)

Re: Musings on Random Musings Luckily though, seeing how they are homegrown, they tend to be dumber than those overseas. I do admit we have other problems, but they are the minority in numbers, the minority in danger. I do think it is important to give credit to the fact that those insane militia types caused the second worst terrorist attack in our history.

Re: Musings on Random Musings Thanks.

Re: Musings on Random Musings Then again, Death Tribble lives in the UK, so they threats of terrorism he deals with, is slightly different from those that the US deals with. Also Al-Qaeda doesn't have "some muslim members" it is comprised of muslims almost entirely. You would be hard-pressed to find one that wasn't muslim. That I believe was my point.

Re: The cranky thread For those of you who are worried about Doug, I'm pretty sure he isn't going to do anything stupid atleast for tonight. Hopefully you can rest well in the knowledge that he will be doing the same.

Re: The cranky thread When you are gone, there will be one less rational voice in the world. Now tell me, how can that make the world a better place?

Re: Global Guardians Campaign Looking For Two Players Final question, would religious characters be considered mythological, in the aspect of specifically the Angel of Death in Islamic lore (positive image, not negative)?

Re: Musings on Random Musings Originally Posted by Reneshat I think people who refuse to see the people that blew up the two towers, make up Hamas, Al-Qaeda, and other terrorist organizations are muslim, usually of Arab or Persian blood (Iraq and Iran are actually more Persian than Arab) are in denial and are allowing their attempt to try to be fair to all people crowd out reality. Wow, you are so right. I changed my opinion. How stupid of me. How on earth could I say Arab, and then just one post away say muslim. Because didn't I know I said Arab?

And I hate to burst your bubble of arab-hate, but the overwhelming majority of terrorists that have ever been active in this country are and were Americans. Maybe we should start pre-emptively killing a few of them, just to be safe. Lord knows I can think of one or two I wouldn't mind pumping some rounds into. I am not categorically calling all "Arabs" terrorists. What I'm saying is the majority of terrorists, are Muslim. Even if all of them were, Islam being the second largest religion in the world, it really wouldn't make that big of a dent in the population. And I hate to burst your bubble, but if I lived in Northern Ireland, I would say "Most of the terrorists around here are Catholic." Why? Because it's true. I would not be saying all of the terrorists were Catholic, nor would I be saying that all Catholics were terrorists. It would be like saying because I said all squares are rectangles, then I was saying all rectangles are square.

Re: A Thread for Random Musings Sorry about that.

Re: Global Guardians Campaign Looking For Two Players Since this is International, I'm asuming the mythological concept can come from any culture, right?

Re: Trapped in a MMORPG It reminds me of the Otherland series by Tad Williams. It was a little more than simply being stuck in an MMORPG, but I think it gives a good idea on the sort of things you could do in such a situation.

Re: The cranky thread Almost makes you wish you were Jewish.

Re: Musings on Random Musings Technically that would make Mightybec second cousin (in-law) to Britney Spears. I know a few of my second cousins quite well. We celebrate holidays together and everything. My suggestion, Mightybec starts the idea of a family reunion. When she arrives, kill her. It is the best possible situation for the world.

Re: black market items You don't think cocaine is amusing? It's one hell of a drug....

Re: black market items Cocaine, and it will make you real happy...

Re: Social "Combat' and "Duels" I just think if you make things too complicated, you will have to start bringing in the Deus Ex Machina or suffer a standstill in the gaming. Sorry, it was my term for the day and I wanted to get it in early....

Re: WWYCD: The Gift Horse My GM had my character possessed by a long dead spirit. That's how he took care of that arms race. Man I wish I had ultimate power. My next character is going to be a ninja.

Re: Alien Wars: Before hyperdrive, there was... Isn't it obvious? Before Hyperdrive there was really-really-really-fast drive.

Re: The Last Word Come on, you can give us the definition atleast....

Re: When caught in a time paradox, what happens? I've always liked the concept that you can time travel all you want, but that has already been involved. You go back in time, but in the past you were there because you went back in time. This would say that free will and chaos are simply illusions though, seeing how if you go back in time, your future actions have been predetermined by the past. Infinite Muliverse is also a nice concept, but those are the only two concepts I consider feasible.
