Here's a question: If there was an awards ceremony, like the Oscars, but for Mad Scientists, what would some of the awards be? The top 3 awards would probably be the Maddest Scientist of the Year award, followed by the Most Evil Madsci award and the Best Madsci Overall award... ...but what would be all the rest? -------------------- Microsoft is like a herd of dragons with amoebic dysentery: massive, difficult to redirect, awe-inspiring, entertaining, and a source of mind-boggling amounts of excrement when you least expect it. Death takes a holiday. How not to do it: "Hi, Mr. Dragon. I've come to destroy you, so would you mind if I borrowed your Fireproof Skin Balm recipe first?"

No no no no... not Oscars... Nobel Prizes. In reality, not fantasy-land: The Nobel board should arrange a new prize for mad scientists, because, well, I don't think there are enough of them (and we can't include schizophrenics like poor ol' John Forbes Nash . . . I'm talking real mad scientists... mad, I tell you! Mad!!! Posts: 178 | Registered: Saturday, March 8 2008 08:00 |

In case you're wondering, I am a regular in a collaborative forum story called The Mad Scientist Wars. It's starting a new storyline, which will end with the traditional giant battle at the Mad Scientist of the Year awards. Well, if they can get past me (handling the security) and a whole swarm of nanobots, that is. Anyway, I get to choose the awards, so... -------------------- Microsoft is like a herd of dragons with amoebic dysentery: massive, difficult to redirect, awe-inspiring, entertaining, and a source of mind-boggling amounts of excrement when you least expect it.

Maybe they can give that to the most frugal mad scientist or something. :D Best method for revealing entrance to hidden lair Best spooky music that seems to come out of nowhere Best explosion when villagers blow up lab Most brainless sidekick Diabolical weapon most likely to cause people to ask, "What the heck is that thing?" -------------------- Either I'm crazy, or everybody else is nuts.

No! No no no! I'm talking real life, here! Real mad science! Let's start in the area of gene alteration... I'm sure there's plenty of crazy stuff those scientists can do! Or plastic surgery -- the plastic surgery field is exploding (so to speak) because of the money... we already have a growing number of people doing crazy, interesting things to their body... probably most people here are familiar with the cat guy. Let's hear about some truly insane plasticsurgifications. The maddest plastic surgeon, if you like, or the maddest gene alteration... why don't we start encouraging our scientists to create crazy new species? Wow... did I just bend this subject around into Geneforge? Sometimes, I amaze myself. Posts: 178 | Registered: Saturday, March 8 2008 08:00 |
