Whoops. That should have been 4, I think I know Mat Cauthon (is he one of the main characters in Eye of the World?), but didn't recognize the name. I never read Dragonlance, however. And...

Hmm...winter on the forum...and I didn't show up? I really like the cold. Just how many episodes will there be? 6, like with Star Wars? OR shall there be as many episodes as there are Star Wars book? If so, then we would definitely need God's aid...

I sincerely hope that the Dintiraden (the one in the episode) is not planning to put those snakes on a plane... -------------------- I tried to think of something witty to put here. Needless to say, I failed. Posts: 2686 | Registered: Friday, September 8 2006 07:00 |

Yay! Prose! I'm actually in the first scene... I'm amazed. And... it's prose! Yay! But, snakes?

That was a headache for everyone involved. EDIT: By the way, the 'nice' I said in the above quote was sarcastic.

Snakes are good eating. Steaks are better eating, but if they are in short supply snakes will do just as well. TM should be let back. This place is dullsville without him.

Steaks on a Plane would be fantastic. Better than a tiny bag with nine peanuts in it. And 3oz of soda. -------------------- You acquire an item: Radio Free Foil Posts: 1169 | Registered: Monday, September 23 2002 07:00 |

I like the new format and so far the story. Too bad I have to go back to beta testing so my post count will drop even more. Posts: 4643 | Registered: Friday, February 10 2006 08:00 |

-X- hopes that all who dare tread the holy ground of Urrrachti now do so knowing that they risk offending a god. -X- hopes that Dikiyoba The Great is now convinced of his admiration in him. -X- was, once, a poor, misguided noob who couldn't tell a comma from an apostrophe. -X- was then convinced, by reading the sacred texts of Dikiyoba The Great, that he must embrace proper grammar and spelling! -X- says that you all have it so good here... -X- says that you should take a look and the Runescape forums sometimes... -X- has a small Cult of the English Language operating there to convert the poor noobs to his cause. -------------------- May the fires of Undeath burn in your soul, and consume it.

For the record, Mat Cauthon makes WoT worth reading. Really, I would have died of an overdose of repressed self-pity if Rand and Perrin were the only ta'veren in the series. Since we're on the topic, I'm thinking that a good addition to the Spiderweb pantheon would be Larry Wall. Why, you ask? Well, first, Larry's a good fit: computer guy, frequent forumer, lack of sanity, etc. Moreover, he wrote the Pathologically Eclectic Rubbish Lister. And what better rubbish is there to list than the breakdown of DikiScripts? Ladies/Gentlemen/Whatevers, I give you the product of a quarter of an hour of boredom: the DikiStats! True, as of right now, all it consists of is how many lines each person gets in the first two scripts. But there truly is no limit to how far this can go! See how many times your name is mentioned in the script (because deep down inside, you know you are an attention whore)! See what the average number of letters in your words are! Find out how often Dikiyoba uses the letter 'q'! Episode I Episode II What? We need to post to keep this board alive, people! Would you rather I talk about Canadian bills that are about to be passed? EDIT: Funny. I haven't seen the user 'Alorael, who stands up and looks around' before. -------------------- (Challenges Aran to rewrite the StatsBot in under ten lines.)

My appearances more than doubled in the second episode! :cool: Mat Cauthon rocks, but he's not the best character. Perrin Aybara for the win!

And why do you suppose that is, Tyranicus? Do you think it had something to do with your double posting? :P (Being alive for most of the script probably also had a lot to do with it.) Thanks, Dintiradan. It may or may not prove useful, but it will certainly prove interesting. Originally by Dintiradan: quote:Dikiyoba used it three times in the first two sentences of Act 1 of Episode 1 and then not at all during the rest of that act. Discuss. :P Posts: 4346 | Registered: Friday, December 23 2005 08:00 |

What?! I rarely double-post. I occasionally do it by accident, and I sometimes deliberately double-post to bump a topic, but I'm not a chronic double poster like [i]some[/i] people around here. *cough*cough*Salmon*cough*cough* :P [ Friday, October 20, 2006 20:57: Message edited by: Tyranicus. ] -------------------- "Tyranicus is about the only one that still posts in the Nethergate Forum." —Randomizer Spiderweb Chat Room Shadow Vale - My site, home of the Spiderweb Chat Database, BoA Scenario Database, & the A1 Quest List, among other things.
