This room is for the trivial stuff,

Edit: on FP's sound advise

erm .... I don't think we're allowed this. We get post-count for posting in this forum, so isn't an OT thread just spam?

I don't personally oppose having one, but I'm not sure Markos would be too happy if he came in here and saw a 300 post thread where we're just talking about movies, girls, football etc. etc.

Sure, Mark may not like it at first, but if we spin it as a place where we get to know each other better, thus helping the cohesiveness of the team, maybe...

Yeah, its just the scholar's lounge, where we exchange opinions on politics and other nonsense.

In the matter of city-naming, i suggest something that reflects our 3 schools, something ith Academy or Schola, what do you suggest?

I was thinking of doing some fun stuff with them sort of message like;

OOOoops, wrong way,
aaahh, maybe next time,
Easier Civ-20 tiles east,
C'mon Trip, you can do better,
Are you still playing,
Should have joined us,
Told you so,

And on and on and on

What will be great is when we can rename cities that we capture.



Trip's Folly
Tactical Error
Uber's Crypt
Arnelos on a Pike

etc

Too bad we can't name the landmarks (that's the first time i've said that!!!!)
Raze the capital and name the ruins.

I think that's a great idea. Our initial capital and 2nd largest city should have a more serious name but the rest of our empire I have no problem giving names like

Not a Gathering Storm City
No Visitors Allowed
12 Spearmen Inside
This City Is 20 Tiles Away
Turn Your Army Around
You Already Missed The Goodie Hut Here

Silly names are and

Other options:

"Here be Dragons"

"Trespassers will be shot" and right next to it another city called "Survivors will be shot again".

"We're behind you"

"These aren't the droids you're looking for"

"Caution: This city may contain nuts"

I like FP's suggestions.

A few others:

"Come and get some, ya pansies!"

"Uber, I DARE you"

"We have gems and you don't!"

"Oh, did you want these horses?"

Is there a limit on the number of characters in a city name?

Some of these are too long to be practical, but they'd be as funny as hell.

More names, all film references, a cookie for the person to name all the films (easy):

"We know Kung Fu"

"And like that, *poof*, you're gone"

"We're the sound of a thousand terrible things coming your way."

"We are Kaizer Soze"

"Go away and bring us back a shrubbery"

"Today I saw a NYE become more powerful than the Emperor of Legoland"

"I see dead people: your people"

"We fart in your general direction"

and lastly:
"Any of you f**king pr**ks move and I'll execute every mother-f**king last one of you" - , maybe not.

Shall we start throwing out the Eddie Izzard ideas too ?

"No flag, no country, you can't have one!"

"What is it General UberKrux? I'm arranging matches..."

"Beware of our Action-Transvestites"

"We're just a cat, how would we know how to drill?"

"Cake or Death?!"

"Hello. We're murderers."


PS, anyone who hasn't seen the Eddie Izzard stand-up routines about a million times (like me ) might miss a few of those. I'm fairly sure Arrian will know what I'm talking about, though.
EDIT:http://apolyton.net/forums/showthre...&threadid=55147 This old thread soon turned into me and Arrian repeating our favourite sketches to each other.

PPS, anyone who has never heard of or seen Eddie Izzard will think me a very strange person for posting these.

PPPS. on the other hand, most of you probably already think I'm a very strange person.

There are some great ideas going on, we should save those ideas in case this thread fades away.

And, though the odds of this happening are better than me winning the lottery (and I don't play, so how about them odds?): if we got a GL from a paratrooper unit, we would have to name it "1st battalion, Transvestite Brigade." Airborne wing, of course.

Ok, ok, enough Eddie.
