*mumbles vaguely about dreams* It's all fun and games until the affable person in the bird mask pins the other dude down and shoves his beak through the guy's throat and goes on a murder spree.

Note to self: Never climb mountains with person wearing a bird mask. Or carrying one with them. Check before ascending. No bird masks. Not even once.

Ship builder, at least, is suprisingly light weight and easy on my (clunker of a) system, which... might actually get me to contribute to the kickstarter -- games not running is always one of my biggest concerns, and I've often found that... well, for all there's not much in the way of "graphics" with games using this style, for whatever godawful reason they're freakishly poorly performing anyway, all too often.

But this one innit too bad. That's nice. E: Oooh, +1 -- it also seems to not freak out too hard when you point Battle Encoder Shirase at it. Major kudos for that, it's a godsend on weaker systems.

Shame the drones and missiles and whatnot are kinda' useless. Alright against slow stuff, but anything even remotely fast and they're basically junk, especially if they can reach you and blow you up before the first wave generates. Same if your target has any dakka worth mentioning.

Needs laser drones, is what I'm saying :P

Did he just Sunder Kore's armor with an Unarmed Attack?
Not exactly? I'm not quite sure how it would be statted, but his punching hand is covered by the weapon part of a magical warhammer, or somethin' along those lines. I guess it'd be rolled as an unarmed, insofar as hitting would be concerned, but the damage/interactions re: sundering et al would be notably different than a plainclothes unarmed attack.

Incidentally, that sort of math problem is more or less why we have invented spreadsheet programs. Hint. Hint.

... more seriously, Gonzalez the Warforged Lich (And don't even ask how that works) and his Carnival of Infinite Horrors definitely strikes me as a pretty kickass dungeon theme. Mix it between your classic dungeon crawl vs magitek monstrosities and chimeric carnies, and Five Nights at Freddy's (With Gonzalez, effectively immortal due to his techno phylactry (probably the time travel machines! Or, if possible, Luca.), playing the part of the animatronic horrorbot(s)) and you'd have something to work with. I'd probably say avoid an overarching CT crossover, and stick with a more focused Millennium Festival themed dungeon run -- though with Luca or the time machines as the effective macguffin, if you wanted to string it into a larger campaign it'd be pretty easy.

By the time you hear "Oh Gonzalez" come from around the corner, it's already too late. There are no silver points in the Millennium Festival of Massacre*, only death.

*Incidentally, there's your title.

Alas poor Iron's leg, violently hugged from its socket and then used to bring five people into a state of horrifying togetherness.

Five heads are not meant to fit in a single size 9 shoebox.

The bodies have still not been found, but are presumed loved into a state of non-being.

... chewing and spitting is what camels do, innit? Wouldn't that be what you'd expect to happen?

Can't think of terribly much to say, but good luck t'scotland, regardless of how the referendum falls. Just hope a close vote, either way, doesn't cause too much in the way of violent unrest.

Most of the ones that aren't toting neurotoxin or whathaveyou are, yes. The ones that are, are as well, but more along the lines of particularly aggressive black widows or whatev'. Well worth exterminating even if they technically help keep more irritating species under control. Venomous snakes = bad. Non-venomous = good.

Eh, it's bitey but not venomous. About the only reason it's still alive at the moment is most of the folks here have a certain amount of trouble landing a hit on an agitated snake hiding in awkward corners.

Trying to get it out of the house alive now, though. Rat snake's alright to have around the place. Mostly.

Just... not in the house. Or the walls.

What about Kongregate?
Works, but if anyone sees it (and the computers are placed in a way that everyone passing by sees what is on the screen) I'd get my acess suspended, which is actually needed for some classes.
... what about just stuff on your own flash drive? I had... DF, Incursion, Warzone 2100, Twisted Tower, Pokemon Omicron, Dominions 3, a whole host of fanfics... probably a few other things. On the flash drive I used on campus. Y'don't install anything, that way, and you don't do anything re: internet. Sounds like it'd fit all the noted requirements.

Suddenly random young-ish oak snake (white oak rat snake, if you're being particular) in the middle of hall. Then in one of the other bedrooms. Then running all over that bedroom, before eventually sliding under the baseboard and into the wall.

Hello, wallsnake. Please go away.

So those are... what, orbital drop tungsten rods? Really strong magnets?

Actually, I don't think we're too far off from having recognition software behind high-powered lasers. Then we can strap 'em in highly suggestive places on bipedal robots and the Bullet Rod Thrust Robo Revolution (Also known as "Burter") will save all the world from deadly bullets. By lighting people on fire with energetically irradiated pelvic thrusts.

Andrew's Break remix.

I have never been aboard a steamer
I am just content to be a dreamer
Even if I could afford a steamer
I will take the ferry boat every time ♪


E: This was pretty fun. I do like me some of that vaguely-arabic sounding stuff. Also some fairly nice percussion on and off throughout it, huum. Especially the little bit in the last 20 seconds or so.

E2: Also this, because goddamn nobody from the original gameboy generation doesn't enjoy the occasional high energy Korobeiniki remix.

E3: And this was just silly good. Rush hour meets mario meets big band?

I'unno, little says self-acceptance like being willing to have a tumble with a spontaneous clone.

Also, I just have to say, Chris-torgy rolls off the tongue rather well.
