I love it. I posted something similar.
"Ooh, Togas, we're still friends, right? We luv you! Here, let me give u a kiss" is the perfect response for Togas's cynical rhetoric!!

I will be doing the following shortly, in order:

1) PMs to UnO and GodKing.
2) The post to the Vox thread... I may edit a bit for recent events.
3) The new StormHawk thread.
4) The disclaimer post to the new thread.

Following events:

I am sure I may be able to coo like a dove a little for you. Will hold off PMing Ming until I see how things are going for a bit. No need to draw attention if the thing is not above or beyond what has gone before.

OK guys, Phase One executed (including nye's hilarious performance).

Emails to the teams please. And psychos, we are ready for your stage entrance. Frater Ralphus, please start preaching. Uh, a little drool would be a nice touch. And can someone say something about 'rivers of blood'? OK, go: ACTION!

I can't say I'm a fan, for this I don't understand enough in arts. But these pictures are just beautiful, and like you, can look at them for hours and admire their details.

Seems like Frater Ralphus put the fear of a Stormy God into Vox.

A respectful and courteous post by Beta though... I don;t know about everyone else, but I very much appreciate it.

This is good stuff... Theseus, even if I didn't comment, I fully support putting my name on the list of starters. However, I don't think I'm going to write any comments soon, first of all I have to find out what's going on with Beta's latest announcement.

Personally I would like to mention that they turned me into a hawk with their behaviour, as it certainly is how I feel. How to put it humorously is another thing...

And to Durer's drawings (etches? how do these things get called in English?): Excellent! Both as pretty pictures to lighten up the mood, as to seeing his work again. Even if it would normally be too grim for me, his things amaze me, and keep me interested. For me he truely is one of the best rennaisance guys.

They're usually called 'engravings', although 'etchings' is sometimes used instead.

And I agree, they look great!

I am sorta bummed out we got into this Voxodus discussion so quickly... I wanted to slowly descent into warmongering madness over a couple of days.

Is there any use to maintaining the rogue general stance, and Frater Ralphus' hysterical (both meanings ) religious rants, while the negotiations with Lego and Vox continue??

Just in case we want to keep playing the StormHawk game for any reason, I drafted this:



PEACE?? FRIGGING PEACE??!!

+)(#*%)(%U+)(#*^%#$@_^)($



The Vox dogs have the temerity to ask this, having defiled our chicken farms with banana peels?? And to what masters do these dogs now heel, and what of their nefarious plans?

Does the StormHawk Party stand alone in protest of this foul mockery of diplomacy?

Foreign diplomats and rulers: Be warned. If we do indeed stand alone, nay, even if only I, Theseus, stand alone, garbed in the shreds of Stormian honor, our sovereignty and honor shall be avenged.

Our Stormtroopers shall range across North Stormia with conscience wide as hell, mowing like grass Vox' fresh fair virgins and flow'ring infants. Why, in a moment look to see the blind and bloody with foul hand defile the locks of their shrill-shrieking daughters; their fathers taken by the silver beards, and their most reverend heads dash'd to the walls; their naked infants spitted upon pikes, whiles the mad mothers with their howls confus'd do break the clouds!!!

There will be no peace; this I swear.

I just found the translation for SR's new sig.

It's from Saint John the Baptist, and if I understand correctly is part of the Latin Mass:

"Do you penitence for the realm of heaven shall come nigh to you."

Evil genius, man, evil genius!!
