On the other hand, I am the smartest person you have ever met, and I am not afraid to say it. I am not afraid to plan for it. Some day my smiling face will gaze down upon every public square. Now bend before my awesome presence, and hearken to my command!

It is hard to distinguish the nuances, but I believe we are looking at old-style Djur here, not TM.

I saw a very old, very dead topic revived once; the first clue I got (I didn't check the dates first) was that one of the posters had been dead for more than a year.

If by "C:\ stuff" you mean files saved locally on your computer, no. You have to upload the picture to a server before you can post it.

This discussion is painful to read, much like watching a car crash in slow motion. Some people get a kick out of constantly repeating the obligatory "it's disgusting because it's different" (never mind that the same argument covers homosexuality), others get a kick out of playing devil's advocate and promoting "tolerance" (never mind the animal cruelty), and this - pardon the pun - drones out any sensible discussion.

It is obvious that these two types are redefining the OT's viewpoint to match their argument, namely the first group narrowing it down to the sexual attraction, and the other group playing it down as normal affection for pets. I cannot say whether this misinterpretation is intentional; never ascribe to malice what can be accounted for by incompetence.

I see no original thoughts on the third page that were not beaten to death on the first. The only progress is people publically making fools of themselves.

Given that, you should probably thank me for ending this right here before it gets more painful.

Or: "Stereotypically Theirs".

The idea is very simple and builds on Alec's topic. However, in this thread, the task is not to act out your own stereotype, but that of someone else.
Just pick someone from these boards and then behave like you think is typical for them, but don't name the person you picked.

Then guess whom everyone else is imitating. Go!

That could be because the three of us post far too much. It entrenches us more deeply in our stereotypes.

One solution is to post less. Impossible.

The other is to steal gimmicks and habits from everyone else, until they obscure your own stereotypes.

Which leads Arancaytar inevitably to the following: Stolah u kulamé. Also, do not call him cute or

DIE.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Registration code question. in Avernum 4
Law Bringer
Member # 2984
Profile Homepage #12
The registration code and the key are linked, of course. Your code is only good for the one key that is generated by the program.

However, the game remembers that it is registered through a flag set in a settings file. If you back up and restore the old settings file, the game will remain unlocked. Since installing an upgrade does not overwrite the settings file (or shouldn't, I'm not sure), upgrading won't unregister the game.

At least that's what I remember from the Avernum Trilogy. A4 might work differently.

On an entirely unrelated note, osmium is used in the tips of fountain pens, phonograph needles and very old lightbulbs. It is toxic when pure, and thus usually alloyed with iridium (Dallerdin) or platinum (Spy.there).

Not that it has anything to do with the story. No.

The ideal afterlife, for me, would involve being able to communicate with the living world, and able to use technology. I think the best thing would be to become a ghost haunting the internet. :D

If you mean the guy who posted two of these stories a year ago, then yes, that's him.

Also, I hope you realize TM is not actually a pedophile. Whether Fox is actually a furry is anyone's guess, but two identical trolling attempts a year apart would be unoriginal.

Mh. I never looked at it that way. (I haven't yet reached Type I/II errors in Statistics, but I read about them and I think my dad explained them to me once).

--

The original poem (at Wikisource):

(The emphasized section was my sig)

quote:
Wenn der uralte
Heilige Vater
Mit gelassener Hand
Aus rollenden Wolken
Segnende Blitze
Über die Erde sät
Küss' ich den letzten
Saum seines Kleides,
Kindliche Schauer
Treu in der Brust.

Denn mit Göttern
Soll sich nicht messen
Irgend ein Mensch.
Hebt er sich aufwärts
Und berührt
Mit dem Scheitel die Sterne,
Nirgends haften dann
Die unsichern Sohlen,
Und mit ihm spielen
Wolken und Winde.

Steht er mit festen,
Markigen Knochen
Auf der wohlgegründeten
Dauernden Erde,
Reicht er nicht auf,
Nur mit der Eiche
Oder der Rebe
Sich zu vergleichen.


Was unterscheidet
Götter von Menschen?
Dass viele Wellen
Vor jenen wandeln,
Ein ewiger Strom:
Uns hebt die Welle,
Verschlingt die Welle,
Und wir versinken.

Ein kleiner Ring
Begrenzt unser Leben,
Und viele Geschlechter
Reihen sie dauernd,
An ihres Daseins
Unendliche Kette.
Which is, translated:

quote:

When the ancient
Holy father
With calm hand
From the rolling clouds
Sends blessed lightning
Over the earth,
I kiss the last
Seam of his cloak
With a childlike awe
Deep in my breast.

For with gods
Shall never compete
Mortal Man:

If he lifts himself up
And disturbs
The stars with his head,
Then nowhere are anchored
His uncertain feet,
And with him sport
The clouds and the wind.

If instead he stands with firm,
Vigorous bones,
Upon the enduring earth,
He does not reach up
Even to the oak tree,
Or the vine
To compare.


What distinguishes
Gods from Men?
That many a wave broke
Before the one came wandering -
An eternal stream:
The wave lifts us;
Yet gulp in the water,
And we drown.

A small ring
Limits our life,
And many generations
String past constantly,
Their existences forming
An endless chain.
You can see that the whole poem is a lot more fatalistic (even blindly obedient towards a deity) than I usually appear myself. However, the two stanzas I quoted describe a dilemma I can identify with, in a certain sense. It seems like a rift between realism and fantasy.
