Interthread Pirates Home Thread

I intend to handle the finer points democratically, for example, what kind of boat, how the interthread world physically appears to our sailors, etc.

No worries, y'all. Would until this weekend be enough time for everyone to get situated?

I will be gone next week with naught but my phone, so the timing is inopportune but it is alright.

Interthread Pirates Home Thread

'Tis a damn tough life, full of toil and strife,
We interthreads undergo.
And we don't give a damn, when the day is done,
How hard the winds did blow,
'Cause we're homeward bound from the Casual round with a good ship taut and free.
And we won't give a damn when we drink our rum with the girls of good ol' Free!

Rollin' down! To good ol' Free me boys!
Rollin' down, to good ol' Free!
We're homeward bound from the Casual round,
Rollin' down, to good ol' Free,

Welcome to the main thread for the interthread pirates! Join us as we sail the Forums raiding and gallavanting on the good ship Plot Device in search of the most precious materials in all the Five Forums: Phlebtonium. I, our GM/Captain, will contact the GMs of dead threads and ask for their permission to raid. Ideally, this will restart the threads, but if not, that's fine.

Rules:
~You have to be fine with losing. Most often, if a thread restarts, we will fight the players, probably lose, and then leave.
~I will make sure the GM of the thread understands that we won't be killed against our will, but all that happens to us within reason will be up to his discretion. We can always leave if he won't play nice.
~Tropes and Cliches are strongly encouraged. Feel fred to reuse characters from other threads.
~Since we may raid Free, keep your characters cleaner than you otherwise might. There is no shortage of under 12 year olds over there.
~Post length is to the standards of the forums we raid. That means I expect Advanced quality in here and on CSs, but if we go to Casual, feel free to lighten up a bit.

The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything (Interthread Pirates RP)

All right! This is plenty. I will draw up an OOC.

Atheism 2.0 - Atheism using Religions perks.

I go full atheist because I take skepticism to its rational end point:

That would be the irrational end point. Let me prove the point. I am unwilling to provide proof of my humanity.

The atheist would, according to your rational endpoint theory, would believe I am not human? Not only believe, but consider it PROVEN I am not human?

What up people!

Not to build expectations, but this is shaping up to be the best NRP ever. Jussayin.

That was the most glaring thing I found so you are doing well. What about town upgrades?

If you are feeling bold, make an information time. Phones didn't exist back then, they had to send riders. Information time could be the time it takes a rider to reach an important character.

Atheism 2.0 - Atheism using Religions perks.

Atheism is a natural end point to logical skepticism: If I can't prove it's physically real, I cannot believe in it

That would be the more rational Agnosticism. Something is only false when proven false and true when proven true. The only logical position for you would be to not know.

Atheism 2.0 - Atheism using Religions perks.

What good has come to you of atheism that can't be replicated by other means?

And when I look at Religion through a scientific stance it also irks me to see so many people except something that uses so many logical fallacies to support itself because there is no actual proof or evidence to support it.

There isn't any proof to support anything. See: Munchausen Trilemma. The only question is, what axioms we choose to accept so we can draw truth from observation. I choose to accept that our senses can be trusted unless there is reason to doubt them. Ergo, having physically percieved God, I, for myself, accept Him.

I would put a cap on how much a large army slows you down. 20000 Baccan infantry aren't going to take 57 days to cross a piece of land that would take a regular joe 48 hours
