Bio

Back when dinosaurs ruled the Earth, I got started with writing online on the Spore forums. Man, those were the days. We're talking like 12 years ago!

I've been here on and off for almost as long, and have GM'd a bunch of different things to varying success.

NOW WHAT WAS THAT YOU WERE SAYING ABOUT ME LOSING!??!


Scroll and scroll and scroll and weep.

And then scroll some more.

I need help.


What I was saying is that I let you win, of course.

I know about winter and earthquakes and tropes and long posts, but am just as ignorant to editing as Cuumulo is to faith. That ignorance is what allows me to write entire posts in single sessions! There's no competing with that!

It was a good read, as BBeast said, and your portrayal of Cuumulo was also great. Nevermind the writing of his dialogue being like some Jvanic cancer, just imagine how awful Aihtiraq's can get.

I don't think it'd be terribly unusual for him to take the shape of a hain. I don't know if I've explicitly managed to say as much IC, but I always imagined that most djinn would take on a shape similar to that of the being that they address, or else just remain in some favored and decidedly inhuman default appearance. Most pictures of generic elementals have them look vaguely humanoid and many of the djinn are seen from the perspective of Vetruvian or Rukban shamans, so that's probably the source of any perceived humanoid bias in their portrayals.

You know, that whole race thing was just a ploy to make you post faster. But you're tkaing so long that you might actually lose!

I'll have you know I passed my knowledge test for my driver's license yesterday.

Next on the to do list is preparing for a D&D session this Sunday.

Then I'll knock out the Yorumpost.


On your first try?! Hah, I remember when I was 15 I took the knowledge test for a learner's permit for granted and assumed it'd be easy, then failed it because of a bunch of odd questions about the meaning of road signs that you never even see.
What’s coming first: TES6 or the next Yorum post?
@Cyclone oi it's still ur turn >:(


lol how long were you waiting on me i thought i was waiting on you
Fools! I am so toxic and sarcastic that neither you nor Riot Games will never be able to ban me or make me reform!

@Muttonhawk I save all my posts in the cloud :)


Is that why it's been looking so nice outside these last post-free months today?

@Cyclone True, but I am not arguing that we should create more planets. I am saying that we actually move over to a barren one, and start developing that one, and leave Galbar behind. I think that Galbar is developed enough so the gods can leave it alone and not come back to destruction.

This way we leave behind all the bad plots and everything, and we can start anew. We keep everything that's happened until now for possible future reference ( maybe some crossover with the new planet ) but don't actively develop it anymore.

I know some people here are not fond of things happening "off-screen" in RPs (i.e. @Kho :P) but I believe this kind of "soft reset" could help with cleaning up things, starting over with a clean slate.


I feel like we'd be better served by a clean break and actual reboot, if we decide to dump this iteration of Galbar and all its stuff.

It would just be...much cleaner. And allow for us to have different characters. And make it easier for new people to join. I'd still be stuck with more or less the same plotlines regardless of which planet Xos was rampaging across.

You mean this isn't that already?
I joke...

A Yorumpost update. I am chipping away. Maybe another week or two will do it. The slow progress right now is because I am writing riddles in this Yorumpost and that really taxes my writing energy. The good news is that I only have one more riddle to write. Everything after that should just be plain gravy prose and editing.


Well, the other day I remembered that we're having a race and that it's about time for some Stog action. You'd better hurry up, or else I'll suddenly snatch the win by banging out the whole post in one go like I did with that Anshal nonsense.
