Should we make a list of people and their relevant skills, and then put together a list of people based on the desired outcome of the island trip?

[Jackrabbit]

Everyone seems to want to bring along Aqizzar, Nikov. Apart from those people who love hearing the sound of heated political discussion I think bringing either of you precludes the other.

See, my maths knowledge is superceded by Vector, and my engineering and science and programming stuffs is superceded by other forum peoples. And I run a 25:00 5k, can't bench 90 lbs., and don't have enough body mass to be considered for food.

[inaluct]

I'm not sure math and engineering knowledge would be all that useful on a desert island. Unless you needed to build a helicopter out of coconuts to fly off the island.

[RedWarrior0]

Dammit, this gives me a reason to take Architecture next year.

Maths and stuff are useful later on. For example, in building optimized weaponry, in designing a pen for domesticated animals, etc. Really, though. I wouldn't build a helicopter out of coconuts. My tastes are more leaned towards mangos and airplanes.

And For all that is boxworth, Farming isn't just about food!

I should show you guys a picture of the "cubby house" I built as a nine-year old kid.
Or I would, except it's rotted and fallen down now. It was made entirely out of evergreen trees which we cut down with an axe, and then put together into a gigantic ass longhouse. With half-assed thatching on the roof and everything.
It wasn't exactly structurally stable, we were nine, but it was Big.
Took a few holidays, that's for sure.

So yes, I can build anything from a dog kennel to a shed to a house, depending on what tools are available.

[eclipsetail]

again, no one wants to take me. 

[Realmfighter]

I will take Tail, Huesoe(?) and any of you other whiny bastards who want to die horribly on a desert island

Lived on a horse farm for a year and a half before homelessness ensued. It's a hard life for a city slicker.

What are you going to do with optimized weaponry, and wouldn't someone who just had some experience working with their hands be better at doing all of that anyway? I mean, what are you going to optimize about your weaponry, anyway? If you're stranded on a desert island, your weaponry is probably a pointy stick and some rocks.

[Tack]

Yeah, but horses are nuts, man. They PSYCHO.

[Nikov]

Everyone seems to want to bring along Aqizzar, Nikov. Apart from those people who love hearing the sound of heated political discussion I think bringing either of you precludes the other.

I just said I'd have my rifle. I'd restrain my discussion with Aquizzar to very short retorts. One, maybe two at most.

[inaluct]

We should probably kill all the horses in the world. And then beam a message into space describing how we subjugated them and used them as slaves on our farms and in our wars, and then how when they had outlived their usefulness, we systematically exterminated every single one of them. And then wrap it all up with some thinly veiled threats.

Scare the shit out of those goddam aliens.

[Criptfeind]

I would take the people I hate.

I would need to go to the island several times.

No offence to most of you. I like most of you.

Retort is another name for the bang from a gun right?

[Tack]

I.e. Aqizzar is a Texan Rifleman.

Plus a political mastermind.

Therefore, it's one of you or the other.

Aquizzar

ALSO, NO 'U'!!!!
