Goes without saying I'm still game, I tried to revive this game using "poetry".

Necro-poetimancy? ... Knowing my luck that probably translates to something nasty.

I'd LOVE to GM, but... *sigh* Incredibly poor internet at home, and I have some other ideas about making a system to assist running the game, no AI super-coder unfortunatly, but just a way to standardize some aspects of turns and speed things up, now I might have time to work on it, but we'll see.

I'm cool with either a duke-out or another GM, I would have loved to make myself stronger but eh.

Hello? Sir Toaster?
We eagerly await your return to this thread, to revive this game like a stale sliced bread;
 Here I have waited just like us all, all through to Summer from this Autumn's fall;
 With baited breath we await the up-date, but hope turns to despair at an alarming rate;
 Please forgive my struggles with verse and rhyme, and please return us to murder, science and crime...
 (against all forms of humanity).
Amen

I am on the other side of the bull, but I will amend to move to the side behind the door-frame if things look... dicey.

First, *tip hat to Tomcost* "Thank you very muchly!"
I'm almost all out of loose ends.

Also. (Spoken slowly and with extreme emphasis:)
Field-test, the HAMMER.

EDIT: "move to the side behind the door-frame if things look... dicey. Let's see what Tomcost has planned."

EDIT #2: Stand to the side nice and safe, WAIT for Tomcost's attack, and do my thing AFTER, if bull not dead anyway.

Again, how did this derrail into a metalinguistic discussion?
A wizard did it.
We're ALL wizards! That's not a helpful answer!

If only I had more sig space. Alas.

A Pit of Magic, less a meet of grammar Nazis, more like grammar tea-parties.

This is amazing, is this even on the internet?

Or maybe whenever it explodes something, it becomes spent and disappears?

This is actually the case, but no person has exploded enough stuff to seriously impair him/herself.

I have (-_-') My own chest for example. I was lucky enough to escape with a one-time pain/endurance roll, but it IS hardier than flesh! ;D

Well...

F### it.

Stand well back, if the bull gets stuck attacking this door, "Echapl" it right in the face. Dex rolls can suck it.

Also test out my Arcane hoverhammer on it's face from the (relative) safety of my side of the door.

Also, don't you want something a little more... killy? Tomcost? Arcane is a good choice, although I am going to seem biased. I swear my affinity for the stuff is solely due to my pot=5 tattoo. SWEAR. Although it is CERTAINLY effective!

Regardless, FIRE "ARCANE COMPENSATOR" at the moose-thing's face, should slow it down/distract it, or make it hopefully rampage in it's room!
You should be careful- technically, the moose-thing is the steel non-aggressive one near you, not the magma bull your context indicates.

In any case, bombs away!

[Bigf01t Dex:3]

Your shot goes wide and smacks the opposite door frame again.  The bull is still caught in the blast radius, though.

[Bull End:3]  It stops, bellows, and shakes its head several times.  Good thing too, because one more smash and it's in the pit room.

I am starting to love this Flashbang launcher! It wasn't what I was going for, but awesome never-the-less!
Also @Toaster, THANK YOU for correctly inferring my intent, I really didn't need to aggro the moose, how uncharacteristically not saddistic kind of a GM!

TURN:

Set aside the "Compensator" for a moment...

If I can stay in one-word range (just inside the spike room, presumably with the bull stuck in the door to the pit room:
"Echapl Echapl"
At the bull, also pay attention, does repeating the same word in a sentence multiple times amplify it's effect relative to normal? (Is "Echapl Echapl" > "Echapl"? Draw on my experience of seeing single word use of elements for comparison.)

If the bull is reluctant to enter that range, or it doesn't seem safe for me, face bull and fire:
"Enur Echapl"

If I can safely swing the arcane hover-hammer at the thing's head from behind the door, go for it!

EDIT: One last thing, was I close enough to hear the words that made the magma bull? Does the alien even SPEAK it's words? If I heard the words, a PM with contents would be awesome, if not that's fine.

If anyone wants to help me with the 7 or 8 pot roll magma stag BEFORE it escapes, I would be grateful! As would our life expectancies.

I would also be inclined to help clean up that Werewolf.

I can also make amaze-ball weapons, for the record, as the individual with the highest pool and probably (maybe) greatest word count...

Regardless, FIRE "ARCANE COMPENSATOR" at the moose-thing's face, should slow it down/distract it, or make it hopefully rampage in it's room!

@Toaster, I'm just curious what you mean by "pattern"...
Spoiler: My theories, if you want NO spoilers avoid! (click to show/hide)
I hope I didn't sound snobbish or arrogant, this is all dumped straight from the brain-cage, so bear with me!

Damn being busy, I miss TWO turns! Ack!

Ok, Let's try and clean things up... shall we?

STOP! CLEAN-UP TIME!

Edited for reasons.

A post to say I've been lurking, this R2D is... amazing. Yup, that's the word I'll use.
Quote from: SquatchHammer on October 12, 2013, 06:20:34 pm
Waiting for another turn is just almost as bad as watching Ice Pirates 3 times in a row.

But seriously Cheesecake hasn't said anything for three days and nothing. Is there a way to contact Mr./Ms./Mrs. Cake?

Also is this typical in RTDs to go a few days without a turn. Since this is my first and havent read any others yet, I am very curious. The only reason why I found this was looking at GL's sig and thought it was an actual trip to Vegas by B12'vers. I was only half correct.
Sometimes a R2D will have a brief hiatus, it (sadly) happens sometimes for various reasons.

But yea, although this might not be a trip to Vegas, it is most certainly a "trip" to Vegas, if you get my drift.
And it is amazing.

((For the last week I've been cheering for Vakothu, and of course the powerful Science pair, Bigfoot and Tomcost. So I'm very happy with this turn's outcome.

By the way, do you two (Tomcost, Bigfoot) share your word lists? Because if nothing else, it seems like you guys made an alliance, which isn't a bad thing.

Having everyone except for the Science pair injured was also very entertaining, as was the fact the the creatures created by the said pair + Urist have been dominating the arena. Also, I wonder if you two should accept Vakothu into the "alliance," would certainly he group my favorite characters all into one bundle.))

No direct share, mostly just ideas about science and perhaps splitting words to science and sharing the result, which I am reasonably happy to do with any science-minded denizen of the pit. Trading has become difficult as I am down to my last 53 truly unknown words (and 7 more I know, just not the order). Most of these are forms. (There are a few words I am unsure of, but we will see)
Once I clean up the Magma Room I won't have much more to do but innovate and science, unless some poor fool wants to pick a fight, in which case I won't be aiming to be accommodating.

I must say I am a little disappointed with the "Compensation Launcher" (Thanks for the rename BTW  ;D), I was hoping for something a little more... killy.
Oh well, if anyone wants to trade for an arcane mega-flashbang launcher do ask.

[TURN_SUBMIT]

EDIT: Waitaminute, shouldn't I have full pool? My last turn I basically poked the compensation launcher with my toe and picked it up. No combat. Nevermind. Forgot I tried spawning armor... :-[

The dwarf bashes Outcast in the left knee with his shield.  There's an audible pop, and Outcast crashes down, leg screaming in pain.  The dwarf steps back and shouts a battle cry.
Lolwat.

Also, test-fire INTO THE MAGMA ROOM, quick modification to past turn. For teh lolz.

((Also, can we rename "Arcane Great Crossbow" in my inventory to "Compensation Launcher"? Please?))
