Life isn't a train ride where you're waiting to reach a train station (death).

It keeps going, in as much as I believe in the afterlife.

This is why I love spiderweb, all these people w/excellent answers to the question. I was wanting to quote a few, and congrats, but there got to be too many to quote.

But I'd like to say that I love Stug's last paragraph.

And: I live because you can't stop me.

A better idea would be different nocturnal and daytime creatures.

(And it sounds like want to disable the party too much at night.)

Brt Bixler has a nice touch with his water/essence counters. They add a decent form of 'party-need'.

Taken literally that means that there's at least 24 other hated dictators in the world.

Besides, we've got a hell of a lot of power, and killing off evil dictators is keeping us from getting into worse mischief.

Who isn't a manipulating gnat in our universe? (Aside from someone who has no life.)

And as for the Shi'ites, a good # of Iraqis, both Sunni and Shi'ah (forgive my spelling) have expressed their resentment for Shariah (theocratic) rule.

And I didn't mean that Iran would invade right away or anything, or even Iran. I simply meant that one of the non-democratic (call me a capitalist swine) powers, not necessarily countries, would become another dictator there.

(And forget my comment about the Israel fence, I don't care nor was I thinking very clearly.)

Yeah, it tends to remind me of the "Burned to Ashes" scenario, I think.

That might be the wrong one.

Do we know the difficulty that we're talking about?

(I'm guessing it's either Very High, as in after Za-Khazi, or Med-High, as in vampire fighting)

I would like to point out that while Saddam is an evil <censored>, he
isn't messing up other countries half as much as Bush is. Given the facts that
there are no proven links between him and alqaeda, and that there are no nuclear
or biological weapons in Iraq, I still hold that the invasion was a gross violation
of the Geneva protocols. It is also doubtful whether American presence in Iraq is
necessary, or even preferred by the Iraqis.

Sure, it's not necessary, Iran wouldn't care if we left. Uh-huh. And the fence in Isreal is wrong. Okayyy.

Iraqis have voiced their support for the American presence and liberation/invasion, if you say that the presence isn't wanted by the Iraqis, don't speak of them as a whole.

One word: Adventurer's Club 3 and AC 1.

Wait a minute…

Anyway, they both have good thieving oppurtunities, if you know where to look. AC 3 has a much better atmosphere and potential for it, while AC 1 just has a lot (not intentionally, I think) to steal.

And they both have the Thieves' Guild.

Why is it so easy to make someone look bad just by replying to each one of their arguments? It's very common (Alec) for one party (Alec) in a debate, to make the other seem so stupid, when in fact, the first party mentioned has few logical or rational arguments made (Alec).

I see this all the time in debate. There's this girl in our league, who has these hypnotist powers. Not only is she beautiful, she gets up there and starts talking, and sounds sooo right. But when you think about what she just said, you realize that she sounds silly and wrong.

Speaking of maps, anyone (Arancaytar), I have a very special, BoE bitmap for a very good scenario that's in the works right now.

I'm not making it, and it's not RiB (whoops!), and I'm not sure if the designer wants me to give out maps till he releases it.

I've also got a few other maps, hanging around, but they don't serve much of a purpose.

I've made a bank in one of my too-bad-to-be-released scenarios, but it only converted gold to dM's, (bills).

I had 5's, 25's, 50's, 100's, and 1000's. And they had type flags, too, so someone might be able, with coordination, to carry them to another scenario, and get more of the same type there.
