"Frontier Deprivation, hour 20. My hands are growing numb. I;'m biting my fingernails complusively, and am creating newsposts out of habit. On a corner of a piece of parchment, I have somehow written the words, "Canada Debates purchase of Carrier". I don't know how much longer we can stand this trapped emplacement. Wayne and Erwin have begun to chase EC all over the place. When shall we all go raving mad?"

Hour 23: I always knew that life at the frontier was on the razor's edge between genuius and insanity, where the shadows merge and spill across the night sky forming plans for world domination. I just never thought I'd come so close to falling from the blade, into the deep pools of darkness that lie beneath. My atempts to keep writing can only do so much. Already I'm thinking with secret tags- what the net has forfeited my brain has taken up. OOC flame wars flit through my mind, improbable happenings are accepted without a blink of the eye.

I only hope I can survive another few hours.

It is only testimony to our desperation that we sit here spamming towards another forum's post count. We should do something useful to keep the pain away. We should write news posts. We should debate what was destroyed by that tsunami and what wasn't.

We should get the Frontier back and soon.

In the time since the Frontier has shut down, I've read a book -- Charles Dickens's A Tale of Two Cities -- saw my daughter play around with newfound energy, and ate a meal from Wendy's, at which point I noticed that Dave has a very big ego. Dave being the guy who founded Wendy's and has his visage all over it... It's not "Wendy" anymore that's on the food, but Dave. I don't like Dave.

because if it doesn't Erwin will shoot it

Since the frontier shut down I have spammed apolyton, talked to a few friends over MSN and gained six levels on diablo II. God I need the frontier back!!!

And the point of the cat is not that it is both alive and dead but more that it cannot be both alive and dead. The point was to basically disprove the bit of quantum theory that says quanta have no properties until they are measured. Unfortunately it has since been proved that quanta do in fact have no proerties until they are measured and so people have had to compromise by saying that the cat consists of so many quantum states that it is in fact at all times essentially both alive and dead. Which basically boils down to: cat, photon, irritating feline that chases birds, smallest possible quantity of light, how the hell can you compare a cat to a bloody photon?

(I read alot about quantum mechanics the last time the Frontier died)

24 Hours. The clock ticks enlessly. Hell, I didn't know I had that damn CD which I lost like six months ago to the mess my room is. Argentina's news posts continue to grow in size and number... Meanwhile, the sore eyes of waiting at the pc, winning the Cid campaign on The Conquerors and the Argentine equipment lists are revised, all surplus materiel is ready for sale. Started story of the Nuevo Partido Democrata Conservador. All in all, boredom is going to overtake the Hodad... will the Frontier return before he succumbs to total madness? Will Coug return to his acolytes? Only time can tell...

Hour, unknown. We have set up our residence without our old homelands of S&D. Who knows how long we can stay here before we are found out. Mao has been chosen to keep the night watch. The rest of us are either sleeping or tending to the more deprived amongst us. We have decided to erect a giant statue of the Walrus, in hopes that he can tell us what ineed happened to our rodina. I have filled two pieces of parchment with newsposts, now I run short of both ink and parchment. How many more hours we can last is still unknown. Perhaps we may have to stay here for a long time. Then, we must adapt. Or perish. But the hope lives on. We hope.

Even now, the clock ticks backward, and our posts come out in the past. ruely our minds are slowly warping the reality of this world. Where, then, where is Coug?

I only want to nuke Iran..... Support Apolyton, buy Call to Power 2

Is that so muc to ask???? Is it??

Anyway I was planning to pick up the terrorists today or yesterday and then find out how they got the Anthrax and who gave it to them. Specific answers would result in a number of outcomes but the one I was hoping for the most was that I would find out that Iran was indeed behind this and that Tehran would go up in Nuclear fire.

But instead.... I am playing Madden 2002 and hanging out with some buddies.... not that that is a bad thing mind you.

Look- you can hardly tell the difference. Hardly at all. Sometimes I go on the forum first thing in the morning, and then I write my newsposts and sometimes I do it later and I go on in the evenings when the television's on and sometimes I go on in the weekends to play with it and sometimes i have to write my oob and that takes a lot of time and i have to find all the changes that i made and sometimes i write my budget and that saves me time and sometimes...

And then the LORD Coug said... Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

The Biblical parallels to our situation are quite glaring. We were bad little boys and girls, not giving proper heed to our COUG, and thus we have been cast away from the Promised Land into a Diaspora among the non-Grenz barbarians of Apolyton. We will return to the Promised Land one day... but not yet.

But from this day forth, we shall echo the eternal prayer:
Next Year in the Frontier.

If I forget you, O Frontier, may my eyes go blind, my mouth seal shut, and may I lose the use of my right hand.

You have forsaken us, O COUG, but we have not forgotten thee. We are your faithful children and we shall return to you one day.
