Rancor (Usael)Quite useful; I'd been delaying looking that up. Thanks.

About the council, I don't like how it restricts us so much. Unless someone is actually hostile to another player or their followers, they shouldn't have to fear prosecution. I don't want to get screwed over because I kill some random humans or destroy a town that doesn't belong to any of us. I'll probably join if there is a law passed making it so that we are allowed to do whatever we want with undeclared mortals who don't follow anyone, as well as having complete jurisdiction over our own followers.Hey, if you do something 2/3 of the Synod hates...and there's already a law about one's own followers. Join if you want to propose the atheist-hunting one.
Kick the cubes core, or whatever that cucumber looking thing isEAT THE CUCUMBER!
Whisper in the knight ear he should punch rogue for that comment.
Tell the rouge to follow up with more blasphemy.+1

Well first thing to do is replace the blacksmith. It's 1910, man, get with the program.Can we really afford to?
Contract out the construction of a single new engine to a local machine or bicycle shop which possesses a milling machine. The year is 1910 and it seems we are in the US so we shouldn't need to look more then 25 miles unless we're really out in the boonies. If all else fails go to the nearest railway and ride it to the nearest coaling yard, they're guaranteed to have a very well equipped machine shop and to be eager for side business.No big problems, oh wait except the Burkes still don't work for us.
Take the ruined car and sell it for scrap. This should probably cover the cost of raw materials for the engine.
Talk to the Burkes and Luther about getting Luther some modern tools so it doesn't take him a year. Since apparently they are in a community where this market is underserved, it will be a great investment for the Burkes to loan Luther the money.
Meanwhile figure out some sort of way to make the car stop on your own while everyone else ponders a better steering idea then twine.
Don't bite anyone, just go to the roof and look for a fire-escape with access to the room.+1
P.S.+1, if possible
Can I get a few +1s to holding off on the random murdering. We need some controlled circumstances to figure out exactly what sort of zombies we are dealing with.
P.P.S.-1
Popular media, the two humans that we have killed, and the thing with stuff dying if it touches us all suggest that humans are our enemy.
But I am perfectly amenable to seeking out alternatives and would personally like to preserve a significant portion of the humans once we have a safe population of zombies.+1
That might be.yeah, see if him trying his turn again then inputting that worksBy the way, did you change his 'player name' spelling? That could be the entire problem.
Quote from: Teddy RooseveltI understand you have threatened to kill me on sight. I have come over to see when you want to begin the killing.
Quote from: Our dear friend Teddy. Again.Speak softly and carry a big stick; you will go far.
The human body has two ends on it: one to create with and one to sit on. Sometimes people get their ends reversed. When this happens they need a kick in the seat of the pants.(Granted, most of these quotes merely convey an attitude of badassitude, but still...)
Rhetoric is a poor substitute for action, and we have trusted only to rhetoric. If we are really to be a great nation, we must not merely talk; we must act big.
The pacifist is as surely a traitor to his country and to humanity as is the most brutal wrongdoer.
When you play, play hard; when you ork, don't play at all.
I took the Canal Zone and let Congress debate; and while the debate goes on, the canal does also.
The unforgivable crime is soft hitting. Do not hit at all if it can be avoided; but never hit softly.
Germany has reduced savagery to a science, and this great war for the victorious peace of justice must go on until the German cancer is cut clean out of the world body.
Is America a weakling, to shrink from the work of the great world powers? No! The young giant of the West stands on a continent and clasps the crest of an ocean in either hand. Our nation, glorious in youth and strength, looks into the future with eager eyes and rejoices as a strong man to run a race."
There were all kinds of things I was afraid of at first, ranging from grizzly bears to 'mean' horses and gun-fighters; but by acting as if I was not afraid I gradually ceased to be afraid.
Don't hit at all if you can help it; don't hit a man if you can possibly avoid it; but if you do hit him, put him to sleep.
I am as strong as a bull moose and you can use me to the limit.
Et cetera.
I really have to give credit to those last couple hundred, who no doubt had to climb on the bodies of their fallen comrades to get killed by Samson.Quote from: Judges 15, vv 15-16Finding a fresh jawbone of a donkey, he grabbed it and struck down a thousand men
Then Samson said, "With the jawbone of an ass, I have made asses of them. With the jawbone of an ass I have killed a thousand men."
I wonder if combining, say, sphere and cube would make a shape halfway between a sphere and a cube or if it would make a sphere made of cubes.I suddenly have a desire for cylindrical cat armor.I wonder if you can use many different shapes? A cube sphere cylinder wall cat would be awesome.
Oh, and there are other shape words. I have one for cube, sphere, and I think Wall.
