A wonderful and perverse sense of humor ( did you read her post on cursed items???) would be such a pleasure to players!

Did anyone think of what a strange and perhaps wonderful scavenger hunt could be made out of all the messages that have been posted in this forum??

Must be the sake going to my head.

Wyv

Wizards & Warriors Whimsical Writer's Web .. I may be jailed for alliterating without a license soon.. hehe.

Actually Wyv, I was thinking of putting a humor section on the old story archive site; Remember that "Dumb things" post that was floating around? That would be interesting to have a section just for silly things we do, or humorous things we noticed in the game.

Hey, is there a girly moment going on here? That's it, out of the pool! ;( (hehe)

For some reason, I was struck with another idea with, while not "useful", per se, would be a neat idea; a map to put up on the site, so we could see from where our fellow author-types hail. I know we have representatives from California, Michigan, Tennessee, and North Carolina, so we're representing a fairly diverse potpourri of American residents. It would be great to entice some overseas visitors, as well...
Hmm.. I wonder if we can get Elara to join our little story writing team.. I've seen her hoppin' around here with several posts.. the time is ripe!

Now you've done it! You've made me cry or perhaps it is just the sake and beer chaser (honest I don't often drink). I feel like Sally Fields . . . "You like me, you REALLY like me." I spent the afternoon (sadist that I am) making my picture using paint program in MS Works. First time I tried, I want a stylus for Christmas! I have a spell helmet in mind for Snargol's mother created in your honor. I am extremely annoyed that I have to sleep at night. Tanks, guys!

slip - oooo what a great idea!! Do it!

Lily!! You make us all laugh with your creative and lateral thoughts! I swear I spend time just looking to find a message posted by you so I can have a wonderful chuckle!
Yes, we really DO like you!!!

There is magic on this board which has nothing to do with W&W spells!

Wyv

Hey, everyone is drinking Sake without giving me any? Just kidding, I don't drink (well at least not anymore that is..he he).

Freud - your ideas are always great! im hoping that DWB will take notice of these jives of humor were poking at the game, but more so to see as things to improve next game.

I'd say he could hire us as beta testers too!

Map idea is good , all good!

now I have to read lily's posts....i spent all day yesterday writing...I think today I'm taking a day off!

ok, time to scour the board.

scronan

ps

are wyv and I the only ones in our little group that have finished the game? its gonna tough to write my tale with 5 Zenmasters in it, but do it I shall. the world of Gael Serran will never be the same as the 13-16th zenmasters all walk together! ha!

why stop at beta testing. With all of the creativity, humor, and old school RPG experience of the regular posters here, i think DWB should bring you guys in as design consultants for WWII.

OOOOOH! I want to be a beta tester for the next game. Can I? Can I? My children would mutiny or hold me in highest esteem. Does a hot tub (Freud, tell me you wouldn't be in it a hot second! Of course, we shall try to remain PG 13, please) come with the job? Scronan: I don't drink much either (it puts me to sleep). The sake was an inspiration from the Ninja wear thread (I just happened to have some in the fridge). I imbibed in premature anticipation of finding my Samuri baton (DON'T TELL ME where it is - if I can acquire the magma bomb spell and rid the "shire" of Muck and Amazonii, I will find it. Unfair, that groups of monsters will attack my party but ignore each other.
Freud - two things: first, add Alaska to your list of originations; and second, this girl thinks of you on occasion. . . . . It was a dark and stormy night (really, it was!), and my husband's grill began to roll across the deck. "Time to tie it down." I sighed, and then suddenly the top blew off my grill and out of nowhere I thought, "The top blew off my grill, Freud, not girl." PG 13, remember. My husband thinks we are all nuts, but thanks you all for the constant smile upon my face.

If Lily is in charge of whimsey, I nominate Wyv to be in charge joi de vivre... and .... in game consulting. I mean Ive only gotten as far in the game as I have in large part because of Wyvs hints and helps along the way! And enjoyed getting there from all of your wonderful posts, everyone here makes this forum a great place to learn about w&w and have fun in general. Thanks again all!!

Wyvern - as an outside observer, I would have to second the nomination. Sorry I missed the sake

This is such fun!!!

RavenW = we need your email address which doesn't display here in the forum, so email me! PLEASE!!

And that goes for any others here which have been enjoying the magic being created on this message board!

Wyv

(and blushes too! )

smylin dragon - you've got to be MY smylin dragon!! (yea! he finally made it over while after all the raving I've been doing about this place!)

Yes, I am YOUR smylin dragon. Now all I need to do is get a copy of the game

wow, talk about a lively bunch!

RavenW, what does "joi de vivre" mean? Looks French...you know I speak a lot of Spanish, and some Chinese and a bit of most languages, but I dont know what this means.

something about "of life?". ack...

could you repost lilys funny posts? I missed a few somehow...and be careful with that hot tub stuff!

beta testing, I'm sure if the HPI team knows the meaning of that word!

sorry, couldnt resist!

scronan

joi de vivre = joy of life or love of life
Even my spattering of french will cover that one! And a wonderful compliment to receive!

We've got some extremely interesting folks frequenting this board!

Wyv

Wyv, do I post it here? (not that I think anyone on the forum would spam me)
Scronan, it means "Joy of Life"
Freudian, I will be working on my charachter story soon, what do you need image wise? (ie. size/color depth/ filetype)
And... um... I've been meaning to ask this one, I know what RPG means but what does the C stand for?

(Ok do I win the "Overuse of Smileys" award now?)

RavenW - don't think you need to post it after all. Remembering that I had zipped over to you neat site the other day it was relatively easy to grab your email address from there! Silly of me not to think of that before. You should have gotten an email invite from me as a result, unless I did something terrifically amiss such as letting my dyslexia get the better of me.

Dyslexics UNTIE!!!!

Well, if Wyvern is the joi de vivre, I think it only fair that I be the foie gras! Wait.. that doesn't sound quite right.

Err, anyway, RavenW, the image, please have it no larger than 200x200 (preferably less than 150x150), in gif or jpg format. It might be wise not to make it too "dark", either, as the site's opacity effect renders the author's pictures at 50% brightness until a mouse hover is realized. It can be of you, or something stylized; we have examples on the site. I do most of my editing in 24-bit color, but of course the .gif format will crunch it down to 256. If you want to integrate transparency, please make sure it looks good against a black background.

Oh , and CRPG is Computer Role Playing Game..

P.S. Folks, we should vote on a Story Archive mascot soon.. if you have any "funny" animal/entity pictures, feel free to submit them.. I think something with a monkey theme might work, make alzagor proud.
