Here is W.L.'s speedster character.
 
And Death Tribble's Silver Swallow.
 

 

Re: Superhero Images
 
The Player really liked those Tonfa-Blades from the Hellboy movie, so we made them up. and Once Ghost became Immortal (Man was it ever hard to actualy Kill this character without simply saying - "You Die") He had these crafted, to be his Swords.
 
This Pic is using a screen shot frm Doom III I found someplace online... just thought it looked right for an encounter he had, where he seemingly emerged out of the shadows.

It is with the saddest heart that I must pass on the following news:
 
Please join me in remembering a great icon of the entertainment community. The Pillsbury Doughboy died yesterday of a yeast infection and trauma complications from repeated pokes in the belly. He was 71. Doughboy was buried in a lightly greased coffin. Dozens of celebrities turned out to pay their respects, including Mrs. Butterworth, Hungry Jack, the California raisins, Betty Crocker, the Hostess Twinkies, and Captain Crunch. The grave site was piled high with flours. Aunt Jemima delivered the eulogy, and lovingly described Doughboy as a man who never knew how much he was kneaded. Doughboy rose quickly in show business, but his later life was filled with turnovers. He was not considered a very smart cookie, wasting much of his dough on half-baked schemes. Despite being a little flaky at times he was still a crusty old man and was considered a roll model for millions. Doughboy is survived by his wife Play Dough, two children, John Dough and Jane Dough, plus they had one in the oven. He is also survived by his elderly dad, Pop Tart. The funeral was held at 3:50 for about 20 minutes.

You might. It actually has some neat little games that come with it and several multimedia files as well. The docs aren't too bad, and if you already have some experience are a pretty quick read.

A little something for our Southern posters...
 
Only a Southerner knows...
 
.....the difference between a "hissy" fit and a "conniption" fit and that you don't HAVE them, you PITCH them
 
.....the general direction of "yonder"
 
.....the best gesture of solace to a neighbor in trouble is a plate of hot fried chicken and a big bowl of cold 'tater salad and if it's a real crisis, they know to add a large banana puddin'
 
.....that "just down the road" can be 1 mile or 20
 
.....that grits come from corn and how to eat them
 
.....to say "sweet" milk means you don't want buttermilk
 
.....that you don't shout obscenities at a little old lady who drives 30 MPH on the freeway. You just say "Bless her heart" and go your own way
 
And for those that are not from the South but have lived here for a long time, ya'll need a sign to hang from ya'lls front porch that reads:
"I ain't from the South but I got here as fast as I could"
 
Bless your hearts, ya'll have a blessed day now, ya hear..

THREE THINGS TO THINK ABOUT IN 2005: COWS, CONSTITUTION, AND THE TEN COMMANDANTS.
 
COWS: Is it just me, or does anyone else find it amazing that our government can track a cow born in Canada almost three years ago, right to the stall where she sleeps in the state of Washington. And they tracked her calves to their stalls. But they are unable to locate 11 million illegal aliens wandering around our country. Maybe we should give them all a cow.
 
CONSTITUTION: They keep talking about drafting a Constitution for Iraq.
Why don't we just give them ours? It was written by a lot of really smart guys, it's worked for over 200 years and we're not using it anymore.
 
THE TEN COMMANDMENTS: The real reason that we can't have the Ten Commandments in a Courthouse! You cannot post "Thou Shalt Not Steal," "Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery," and "Thou Shall Not Lie" in a building full of lawyers, judges and politicians! It creates a hostile work environment!

Re: Superhero Images
 
Here's a pic I did for one of the characters who used to be a PC in my PBeM and is now an NPC until I can write him out. It's not the official pic because the Player doesn't even know I've been working on it.
 
Ultra is a Superman knockoff.

It is about the upcoming cover, in progress, for Pitch Black's "Razor-Edged Arcanum". Now called Sages & Swords, name change while I was working on the piece. An short story anthology of wizards, magic and such.

SCIENTISTS DISCOVER NEW ELEMENT
 
A major research institution has just announced the discovery of the
heaviest element yet known to science. The new element has been named
"Governmentium".
 
Governmentium has one neutron, 12 assistant neutrons, 75 deputy neutrons,
and 224 assistant deputy neutrons, giving it an atomic mass of 311.
 
These 311 particles are held together by forces called morons, which are
surrounded by vast quantities of lepton-like particles called peons. Since
Governmentium has no electrons, it is inert. However, it can be detected,
as it impedes every reaction with which it comes into contact.
 
A minute amount of Governmentium causes one reaction to take over 4 days to
complete, when it would normally take less than a second.
 
Governmentium has a normal half-life of 4 years; it does not decay, but,
instead undergoes a reorganization in which a portion of the assistant
neutrons and deputy neutrons exchange places.
 
In fact, Governmentium's mass will actually increase over time, since each
reorganization will cause more morons to become neutrons, forming isodopes.
This characteristic of moron-promotion leads some scientists to believe
that Governmentium is formed whenever morons reach a certain quantity in
concentration. This hypothetical quantity is referred to as "Critical
Morass".
 
When catalyzed with money Governmentium becomes Administratium, an element
which radiates just as much energy, since it has 1/2 as many peons but
twice as many morons.

Well, this is a great birthday I'm having...
 
I'm at work dealing with f$%^ spyware/viruses that infected our servers. Our servers!! That isn't supposed to happen. I want to take every virus/spyware writer and repay their kindness... Grrr.... Anyway, I'll be offline for a while.

Re: Longest Running Thread EVER
 
Thanks for the well wishes everyone (and the birthday rep Alice ), it looks like we are getting a handle on it finally. We're talking to Symantec and will be sending them some things to analyze. At least it looks like I'll be going home at a decent hour tonight. Well, back to work...

I totally understand. I wish it was a FtF game because I keep wanting to move forward as well. I'm currently playing in about half a dozen PbP games, and so I'm used to the slower pace, but when it is a great GM and game, it always seems to go slower. to Josh.
