Can I make an Irish IRA Terrorist who wants to take back the homeland from knife eared bastards?
Finished Hong Kong. You could easily set the game in there, the ending even drives the point home that what happened "Is just another Friday." Which was pretty awesome. Amazing game. Really really want a Shadowrun MU. Or really just bring back Cybersphere.... KINGFOX I SUMMON YOU.

For anyone who likes horror, westerns, or Jack Ketchum novels (it's not based on one of his novels but it plays out like one) I highly recommend the movie Bone Tomahawk. It's available for streaming over Amazon with their Prime service. The movie synopsis reads: When a group of cannibal savages kidnaps settlers from the small town of Bright Hope, an unlikely team of gunslingers, led by Sheriff Hunt, sets out to bring them home. It's got a pretty decent cast too with Kurt Russell, Patrick Wilson, Richard Jenkins, and Matthew Fox in starring roles.
I think you kinda gotta put a... gore warning?
That movie turns the dial to 11, then decides it isn't content being a spinal tap meme and rips the dial to 20.
Bone Tomahawk is not for the faint of heart.

And here I was hoping for an Aldous Huxley based game!
That's … WHAT I FUCKING SAID!
Where do you think "orgy porgy" comes from?
I haven't read it since... High School, barely remembered that, skipped right over your post! Hah.
Also did someone say Legends of Galactic Heroes? Because hnnnnnnnnnnnghhhhh that would be the best...

Netflix confirms Bright sequel.
ETA: Original screenwriter Max Landis will not return. (which means my dialogue issues may be resolved, thank god.)
The dialogue was Ayer, who is returning. Max Landis's script in its original form is pretty different then the Bright we got.
Damnit.
I mean if they pump some fucking life into Will Smith I think he can get the bad dialogue through.
He was the weakest part of the film for me except for a few moments where he wasn't phoning it in.
I think in the realm of MUSHing players can be more entitled (deservingly I believe) because of the time and effort spent in the game.
Comparing an entitled player on a MU* to a fan of a TV show is apples and oranges.
There is a much tighter and more intimate social contract involved in playing on a MU then there is sitting on your couch once a week and watching a show, or reading a book. While there are obviously investments involved with the two latter, I dont believe the investment is as intricate or intimate as the former.
Anyone here work 9-5 (or in reality 10-11 hours when you factor in drive time), if so, and you keep fit. HOW DO YOU DO IT.
Seriously... holy shit, spending 12 hours sitting down a day leaves so little time to dedicate to working out, its kind of soul crushing.
I dont think it hurts to give a hint or two. The nature of a roster system means that youll never know everything about a character at a glance, and sexual orientation can be a big deal for some players.
looks back over the last two dozen posts
Is this really a fight over ANSI?
You all need a hobby.

I find it frustrating to have it be implied that to be successful, you have to be online a lot, not have a life, etc. I am not successful because I have a time advantage (being on and being engaged are very different).
I delegate.
In my mind my character has been incredibly successful (not in an IC power sense) and I honestly do not spend that much time. I work 55-60 hours a week. But I still get enough on Arx to feel I fit in. Sometimes the information flow is overwhelming and I feel I am lagging behind... but that is more my fault (trying to spread out) and less the game's.

I'll say it again, it's being staffed by people that staffed on Firan. Why anyone expected anything different to the mentality that prevailed there, I have no idea.
Having suffered at the hands of those loons before, I do not see the same mentality from Firan in Arx.
This is the Inquisition's stance on sex.
I miss the WORA wiki cause it always made me laugh.
Even though it was an ooc page the idea of some Prodigal barbarian grumbling out cyber-slit amuses me.
