It can't be that bad for her, she seems to have her own amazon overlord that she gets to manhandle regularly...and pick up after...

Things go poorly for her.

Given who's writing her, that doesn't surprise me

[LoPanShui]

I admit to nothing involving amazon overlords or manhandling. Emily is just a quiet girl who has never had a boyfriend. Any other accusations are based entirely on observer bias.

[blackcatf]

How can you deny the amazon overlord? I read it with my own two eyes.

I accuse young Emily of nothing beyond being taken bondsman to a Jade Falcon Star Colonel who is now learning martial arts from her. I said nothing about boyfriends...just because you gave me a little insight into Tinkerbell's character that one night you were drinking doesn't mean I'm meta-gaming. Meta-gaming is against the rules of the role play story.

Any accusations that a bondsman would be able to teach a Star Colonel anything about martial arts is unfounded and based entirely on observer bias.

That said, the Clans did eventually lose the devastating art of Ameridote. They considered it to be against the rules of engagement.

WTF?

[blackcatf]

All future duels against Clan 'mechs will take place in the lava pit on Terra Therma, and the Clan 'mech is not allowed to bring machine guns...where are your double heat sinks now, vatspawn?

[Rabbit Blacksun]

sitting in my K2 with all the other bonus gear i can pack to deal with edgy and some what mouthy clan pilots... who need a refresher on politeness xD

[LoPanShui]

All TImberwolves must drop without arm mounted weapons. Says so in the Remembrance somewhere, I'm sure.


And lo did Kerensky say,
This **** might be a bit op.
And thus were they nerfed
That others may have a chance at victory.

[blackcatf]

That might be the Clan Blood Spirit Remembrance. Then again, I think they're the "thriftiest" of the Clans, so they may just make you strip the XL engine out of your Timber Wolf and run it with a standard 375.

[LoPanShui]

Oh yeah, the opposite of the Diamond Shark Remembrance.

Forget ye not the extended warranty
For in times to come, when thunder rocks the air
It is not the responsibility of Diamond Shark Metalworks
If your XL375 gets cored and your Timberwolf is a paperweight

Double post.

Double post, double post.

[LoPanShui]

Well somebody's gotta keep bumping this badboy.

While also having a terrible time with my browser where it refused to let me know it had already been posted.

[MagResPolarBear]

Yeah, sorry guys. Work's been piling up a bit, recently.

Also, if you're using a Timberwolf as a paperweight, how big is your paper?

Thank you for including my name in spite of the fact that I only showed up for one event so you could have four players on each team...

On a completely unrelated note, does anyone else think that the sarcastrophe punctuation mark really would be quite useful?

[blackcatf]

How about the precontation point? The snark mark, if you will.



[edit: I wish I knew the key-stroke combination for this punctuation mark.]

[double edit: the above may actually be the irony mark while the precontation point might look more exactly like a backwards question mark. Some sources disagree. Below is a source that shows an irony mark, a percontation point, and a snark mark (the snark mark I think I know how to do on my computer keyboard ".~").]

We're going to need a bigger keyboard...

[blackcatf]

I've been looking for a keyboard with those on it since I found out about the irony mark some time last year. So far, no dice.
