Perhaps 'Exile Spoof Games you don't want to play' would have been a better title. anyway: GIFTS Pinball. (actually that sounds fun!!) Explode-a-X. (an X?) Hydra-Head-Lop Waterfall Run Tied to the Bottom of the Boat. Test Your Woodsman Skill by eating a plaid poison mushroom.

not really, but anyway... I won't pretend to read any of this, just give my own self-important opinion: The US should have made a big impression at the end of the war. Yes reconstruction takes years, and it will, but in this age of instant news (just add opinion) they should have ended the war with a flash. The whole war was 'shock and awe' so the peace should have been just as much, or preferably more, shock and awe. Oh, the US will have to be there a long, long time. -------------------- Tip of the Day: #13 Stand clear the closing door. That's treason.

All your numbers may be cool, but #87 is the paradigm of numerality. I'd like to huggle *name deleted*. (saying you would like to do things to people on the internet ain't a good idea). 100 should be the limit of n00bs.

I may not know much about this topic, but I know a lot about human nature, so I can say for a certainty that this is YOUR FAULT! Come on people, think about it, most of the time you can't say whether people would have been better or worse off if they had or hadn't been colonized or invaded. Case in point: Greece and Rome (why isn't it italy, anyway) used Roman numerals. think what it would have been like if they used arabic numerals. but would we object if they had invaded? Africa and Asia are and have been ruled by opposing warlords since the begining (sic) of history. But SO WAS EUROPE. Tenochtitlan (Mexico City) was the size of Paris when the spanish invaded. I believe Edo was at least the same size (part of the year), and the Chinese cities must have been (but I do not really know). What can be said for certain is that things get better and worse. In that order usually. (that was a joke.) (no, really it was). (yes it is kind of puny). consider any major empire. rome, britttain*, Macintosh, starbucks, Microsoft. And as for dictator subjugating people and getting rich and powerfull, well, that's how it always works, just consider the list of major empires and ask which is the most powerful. So is Asia the next superpower? How long will the US be on top? -------------------- Tip of the Day: #13 Stand clear the closing door. That's treason.

The internet filter on this computer wouldn't let me see the landover baptist church site. it said it was tasteless. :P I consider myself open-minded in that I try to see why people believe what they believe. It almost always springs from desire. I also do not critizise anyone for believing in really stupid (very dangerous and subjective word) things, because the majority of the world thinks that about me (almost anyone can say that), and someone else believes in something even zanier with all their heart and soul (if it exists). edit: after reading some more.

OOC: Aptok and Santdoil are still at the bar in the Inn. Raf is getting very lonely and sunburned and thirsty on top of the clinic. At the Inn: A very strange looking character goes up the bar and whispers an order. the bartender looks at him funny and mixes a drink. A very normal looking person enters the inn and all conversation stops. He walks up to the bar and simply asks for a beer. The bartender says: "We don't serve your type here. Leave before we regret it." Joe looks hurt, but leaves in all haste. The strange man thanks the bartender and leaves through the back. Raphnotch enters the bar and sees Aptok and Santdoil. Raf: Hey what are you guys still doing here? Aptok: Well you told us to come here to get a quest but no one is ever here. Raf: Lethalis is here, ask him for a quest, I bet he knows of something going on. -------------------- Tip of the Day: #13 Stand clear the closing door. That's treason.

enter the unanimated golem (UG). I have the amazing ability to drop into a fight out of nowhere and have no bearing on the outcome. usually :P IC: Some people take rp's WAY too seriously. UG falls several meters away from a fight in an alley, shattering a crate of vegetables and sending the contents flying speedily towards the perpetraitors (sic) who flee in confusion.

so sorry about not posting this on april 15, i originally planned to, but life got in the way. I meant, the government would spend money without taking any in. I know you can't do that, it leads to inflation. but what if you did do that, on a controlled basis. instead of having an income tax, there would be a de facto tax on all currency issued by said govmnt. ( someone else may have said this already, I havent read all the posts) Therefore all monies ever earned would be taxed, which might discourage savings, but would encourage spending... that is what i meant. (sorry about not coming back earlier either, life getting in the way again.) -------------------- Tip of the Day: #13 Stand clear the closing door. That's treason.

What would life be like without taxes? The government would print its own money, leading to inflation, basically a tax on all money everywhere.

OOC: Sorry for my protracted absence (sp?), whether or not your are sorry is another thing. Last time (pg 6, about the middle), Raphnotch, disguised as a bartender sent two dupes to the clinic. a little later a tree fell in the forest. IC: and now... Two bedraggled rogues shamble up to the clinic, one limping and the other crawling. Raphnotch walks to the edge and looks down. Atpok, the first rogue, looks up, and says "Man, can you help us?" Santdoil, the second says, "Yes, we have traveled long and journey hard to reach this place, how do we come up?" Raf: (under breath) 'not very well' (out loud) "Normally you come up the rose trellis, but you can use the ladder in the closet right inside the door." *thinking, I wonder what took the so long.* Aptok, from trapdoor: "Gah! this trapdoor is laced with poison!" Raf: "Well, it is a trapdoor, now, isn't it?" Santdoil: "Yea, but it is really strong poison" Raf: "Ok, drink this" @(for action) gives them a potion marked "logarithm"@ A+S drink potion and thank Raf. Aptok: "The poison feels as if it has been reduced by an order of 10. I feel momentarily smarter." 'hmm.' (the feeling passes) Raf: "How did you come here?" Santdoil: "Up the ladder in the closet by the front door." Raf: "I see, um, how long had you been using scribbane?" Santdoil: "Since we first found out about it, I think. Some guys came into town selling it." Raf: 'I think that would be about 3 months ago', "um, How much did you drink a day?" Aptok: "Oh, I know this; A LOT, We were fighting the rock monsters in a big cave" Raf: 'Right, rock monsters' "Ok, I am going to make you a pois.., um potion that will restore your mental ability." *or disability* Raphnotch goes and finagles some alchemical machinery and curses profusely. After a while a thimble measure of ooze oozes out. Raf, to Aptok: "Drink this. SLOWLY" Raf then repeats the process for Santdoil. Raf: "Now are your heads feeling clearer?" A+S: "Oh, yes, much, thank you" *Due mostly to the industrial mind cleaner you just gave us.* Santdoil: "What happens if you spill that stuff on the floor?" Raf: "Just be glad you drank it slowly. So do you remember how you got here now?" Aptok: "We went down the path outside the inn, where you told us do go." Raf: "The narrow path headed north, or the footpath headed west?" Aptok: "No, the other path" Santdoil: "Yes, the one headed south through the forest." Raf: The really really winding path through the forest? Aptok: Yes. Santdoil: A tree fell on us, that is why we are in such bad shape. Aptok: Well, he says it fell on us, it more fell up and hit something and then fell on us. Raf, eyes lighting up: did this tree have red and yellow striped fruit? Santdoil: Like this @turns around and shows Raphnotch a spot on his shirt.@ Raf: yes, exactly like that. I never would have though that a dimwitberry tree would grow here. they are from my native land, that is why it fell up. Old habits die hard. A+S look incredulous, or something very much like it. Raf: Anyway you came for guidance and direction. I presume you wish to continue adventuring? Aptok: Oh, yes. Raf: Well there is this nice place down the road, the New Silver Inn (C) where people can help you with that; So now for some guidance, A zebra will never change its spots, and Don't eat the yellow brick road. Santdoil looks like he is going to say something, then thinks better of it when he sees his partners expression. Santdoil: I think we'll go see that inn now. Aptok: Yes, which way was that? Raf: Just down the path. -------------------- Tip of the Day: #13 Stand clear the closing door. That's treason.
