RWG was going somewhere. We had plots, schemes, conspiracies, and needle/ferrets. We had only four locked topics left on the first page. Then someone felt the need to revive an old, honorable thread with spam, forcing Drakey's hand and putting a locked topic at the top of the list.

This isn't right, and it shames RW to be served by such as us. In punishment, all of you will explain in detail what would happen if a Vell-os, an ORiS, um, individual, and a disgruntled space marine got into a drunken brawl?

For the sake of simplicity we shall call the Vell-os George, the ORiS individual Space Monkey, and the disgruntled space marine Mr. Noodlepants.

The first punch would likely be thrown by Mr. Noodlepants because after a few drinks he would realize that George would look better if he had his face re-arranged. Space Monkey would likely then proceed to dance on the table and cheer on George (because who likes humans?). Mr. Noodlepants would then grab Space Monkey by the (insert ORiS body part) and yank down off the table onto George.

The drinks of the respective individuals, feeling insulted at their abondonment for a silly fight, would then devour them all.

Would this be a Space Marine from Warhammer 40,000? If so, I'd pay heavy money to see this kind of fight.

After the first few badly-aimed punches and thrown bottles, the Vell-Os would try to fry the Space Marine's mind as the Space Marine pulls out his multiquad fragblaster on the ORiS as the ORiS curls up into a ball and shoots spiky spores into the Vell-Os' vulnerable body.

They'd all end up dying more or less simultaneously, and with a spectacular window-shattering series of sopping wet explosions.

Before we begin to analyze the above situation, we must establish some basic facts.

Basic Fact #1: Vell-Os are humans, presumably of Hindi origin, from another Shareware company's software title. The "human" part and the "other company" part give it two strikes from the very beginning.

Basic Fact #2: ORiS is the acronym for Organically Reliant Species (according to the GC "manual"), and is one of Richard White's originally created species (he is a divine being, you know!). GC is also distributed by SW, so it gets -2 strikes from the start.

Basic Fact #3: Space marines were popularized in the Aliens series of movies, which, as you know, were based on the nightmarish drawings of Geiger. They have since been adopted as the model for nearly every knockoff space-related item produced by the American cinema establishment and later by every space computer game involving a clash among space humans and alien species. The coolness associated with being created by Geiger is -1 strike. The coolness of Alien, Aliens & Alien Resurrection results in -3 strikes. BUT, the lameness of Aliens 3 and Alien versus Predator results in 2 strikes. In addition, the sheer unoriginality of space marines since the Aliens film results in 1 strike against them as well. This means that the space marines' net total strikes is -1.

------

Thus, if they were playing a baseball series, the ORiS would be the vegas-preferred candidate for the above-mentioned bar fight for the above-mentioned reasons. The Richard White transcendental theorem, as defined by Icshi in his seminal work "Richard White as I used to know, and will one day again know (but not in the Biblical sense) him", stipulates that all bar fights involving space-related aspects must conform to the National League rules regarding pinch hitting. Thus, as you can imagine, this magnifies the advantage of the ORiS and Space Marine against the Vell-os, but reduces their advantage versus each other.

In practice, this means that Alo would have precious little time to target them with his rifle. Fortunately, he is a very good shot when shooting from the hip. This is due to his steel hip that was replaced after the Pumpkin Incident.

That is all.

The Vell-Os would win because he's from the best game of the three. That, of course, is just a personal opinion and as such has marginally less value. Especially since I did not have the time to back it up with a page of ramblings. :P

I've received a message of the mighty chicken gods concerning this yopic:

"We,The mighty chicken gods, leaders of everything that is a chicken, kindly protest to the seemingly always forgotten PTC's, or scissor/chickens. Save these elegant looking creatures that have very sharp feathers! Or we will curse you. Its your choice, but don't say we didn't warn you."

And my own opinion on this matter, is that also this topic is useless, and therefor deserves the right to be started on the RW forum.

No, no, no. Spam is quite okay. Remember this is still Misc. Well, I guess slash-Cult, but still at least part Misc.

Binary or nuclear?

—Alorael, who is hoping for the former. It would be exciting!
