Such Great Memories...

Bar Trek, The End of Previous Cantinas, the Revolution to get GT to come back, The Hunt of Primitive, The FBW's...

I swear one day this stuff could easily becomem a tv series, or at least a very graphic cartoon http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/biggrin.gif

A Toast, and If we can keep this thread near the top perhaps the old regualrs will return, or at least bring in some new bloo....patrons http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/stupid.gif

So True my good RD, so true, A TOAST to all those who have gone before, during and after at this and all the other fine establishments over the past.

PS. anyone know how many Posts combined there were for all the cantinas over the yrs..... just thought it might be an interesting figure http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/biggrin.gif

That place is too quiet; I can't even stay in the shadows anymore, while letting all the trouble pass by my unimportant person.

Oh, and please give me something. Say, water. I don't exactly trust whatever else might be prepared behind that curtain. Doesn't it smell like... I don't know... various problems falling on the head of an unwary customer? And that isn't only a metaphor either; various things are known to fall from above (sure, very little falls from below, but hey, you never know in a place as odd as that one), whose very name instills dread in the heart of the bravest. Many a gallant patron found the infamous "Killed by speaking aloud the One Word" as his epitath after all.

Looks like I have been rambling. Must be the place. A non-alcoholic, non-furry touched, non-demon envouted and non-hormone infested drink should be enough to take care of that ranting. *Eyes RD's own beverage, and threatens to trigger deadly force against its owner if there is no other suitable drink to be found in the whole place*

I'll prepare your drink Alneyan http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif Oh, and don't pay any attention to the flecks of mushrooms floating in your drink...I promise they're not TOO poisonous, and I guarantee that you'll be thinking this place is a little more active for the next little while. Just a few healthy hallucinations. I guarantee, the mushrooms are all natural, and generally very expensive. But for you (and just you http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif ) I offer them for the special price of....FREE!

* Kamog walks in *

This place needs some Halloween re-decorating...

* Kamog brings several large pumpkins carved into scary Jack-o-lanterns and puts them down near the door and at the bar. He sets up some glow-in-the-dark skeletons and spooky ghosts on some of the empty seats, dims the lights and puts on some eeriee music. He places some large bowls full of candy and chocolates on some of the tables. *

Alneyan, I'm pretty sure the Beverages here are safe, probably one of the few thing's that are. Unless you ask for something that has any of the following words: "Garglebuster", "Arsenic", "Acme", "Budweiser" (The Cantina itself is apparently angered towards the drinking of such american beers) or "Hydrochloric Acid"...And don't try Taz's Special concoctions. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/eek.gif

Re: Forum Chat Bar & Grill
 
A quick reality-check Renegade, if you will. Somehow, I do not quite trust your word, so:

1) We all know there is no such thing as "free". You are consequently lying, attempting to deceive me, trying to harm me in any way you can think of, et al. In other words, I'm afraid you are hiding something under your sleeve; either a trick or an actual "tool" best not mentioned.

2) We have demonstrated you are being crafty, cunning and sneaky. Since secrecy is only helpful if your intentions are not laudable, you are hereby declared as being charged with high treason, as this crime has such a cool sounding name. I mean, thinking of doing something is equivalent to doing it, and once you have done it once, nothing prevents you from doing it again, hence my accusation.

But enough chitchat. Your punishment shall be as follow: you are to suffer from your own tricks. *Waits for a while to build up the dramatic pressure, and to gloat as he is wont to do* Here, in the presence of all the honourable and respectable gentlemen (and some not so gentle, let alone honourable) and ladies (they are well hidden), witness the fate that befalls on villains!

*Throws the contents of the offending glass in Renegade's general direction, hoping to do some damage with the mush****s one way or another; smelling them or touching them might be enough to do the trick*

(I believe the word "mush****" is no longer the potent trigger of various baleful happenings, but you can never be too wary)

Now if someone would be so kind as to give me a mush****less, o****less glass of water? Or should I start distilling an alcoholic beverage to get something to drink, although almost, but not quite, entirely unlike water? Oh, or a tea will do well enough I guess, so long as nobody says "Share and Enjoy".

Re: Forum Chat Bar & Grill
 
As soon as Renegade starts saying the Words, Alneyan dashes from his stool, and makes a run for the closest shelter. Or at least, he would have done so had he not hit a table pretty badly, that was conveniently placed just in his path. Too conveniently of course.

After a few curses and glowering intended at the rest of the patrons, Alneyan watches the spectacle offered by Renegade (quite involuntarily), and can only offer him his most sincere sympathy. "A good chap really; a bit of a trickster from time to time, but he did not deserve that. How horrible. And I have lost my drink in my rush. What a waste."

Raging Deadstar smiled slightly as a few of the spare o***** bounced off his personal deflector shield. In the old cantinas such thing's ceased to work, and usually were followed by certain nasty and explosive thing's that happened to their user, but this place hadn't been updated as such. He watches Alneyan get up and RD Turns to The Bartender...

*Sigh* "Buy the poor guy an untampered Non Alcoholic Drink of his choice, On Renegades Tab of course." http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Re: Forum Chat Bar & Grill
 
At least, someone is being friendly in that cantina! Well, apparently friendly that is. A nice glass of water flavoured with anise should do the trick bartender. And don't pretend you don't have any, or else.

It is both RD. I would rather not touch anything looking like alcohol in this place, even with a long stick; healthy paranoia you know. And then, alcohol can have funny effects on your thought pattern and it wouldn't do to start raving about, breaking tables and saying the O word. See what happened to that Renegade, and you will get my point; can't say I want to try my luck at shouting not so random words in this place.

Re: Forum Chat Bar & Grill
 
As the horribly nasty o***** start splattering with horrid, putrid, slimy sounds all over his body, Renegade dives for cover underneath a table. Listening to he loud "splat" sounds emanating from above him, he sincerely hopes the wood the table is made from is strong enough to withstand this vicious onslaught!

Scraping the putrid mess from his now slimy body, Renegade takes aim, and tosses some of the nasty greasy goo at RD (hoping of course that he's gotten lazy and disabled his personal forceshield)

Finally, the pattering of o***** on the table slows and comes to a stop. Clambering out from under the table, patrons from all over the bar recoil in horror at the smell that now emanates from his body.

The Last I remember of this place, a catastrophie of cartoonish porportions had destroyed the THIRD cantina, and our ghosts had all pitched tents in the netherworld to setup a makeshift shanty town. Subsequently, we collectively willed a new universe into existance and founted a new Cantina, but that was probably another two or three incarnations ago.

Agent Zero wipes the green goo from his face with the towel, discovering too late that the goo is very, very, very sticky and the towel is now very, very, very stuck to his face. After several minutes of frantic struggle, he resigns himself to the fact that he will be spending the foreseeable future with a black towel wrapped around his face. After poking eye and mouth holes in the towel, he pulls up his hood, hoping the combination of hood and black towel will make him look like Anubis. Really he just looks like a man in a hood with a black towel stuck to his face.
With that he stomps off to a quiet corner, muttering that as Agent Zero, THE Agent Zero, he knows better to violate the sacred NDA.
After realizing that the towel is drinking more of his grog than he is, Agent Zero slumps back in his chair to wonder why the Gods hate him so.

General Woundwort January 26th, 2005 02:00 PM

Re: Forum Chat Bar & Grill
 
A rippling warp in space announces the teleportation of the long-absent Woundwort. With a short break in-between classes, he needs some liquid refreshment.

Walking past Dave and Mac's table (with a quick blush), he strides up to the bar and sees... its empty.

"What? No bartender? What on earth has happened to this place? The Boss must be really out of the loop this time..."

Then he sees RD's note. He tears it off the pump and reads it.

"Well... I can't wait until this gets approved. I guess if I can't get someone to make my drinks, I'll have to do it myself."

A few punches on the wrist computer and Woundwort's flight suit is exchanged for a dress shirt with collar (no tie) and slacks, with a white apron. Another series of buttons and the bar is restocked with the finest of American microbrews, with Arrogant Bastard Ale prominently featured. (As per the Boss's edict, no mass-produced yellow "beers" in sight).

"Your new bartender has arrived! First round's on the house, in celebration of my initial good grades in school. Free advice and a sympathetic ear included."

Woundwort reaches under the bar to retrieve Taz's favorite washcloth, and whistling the tune "Master of the House", begins polishing the bar.

(RD - you have to take initiative. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif )

RD looks up and smiles, Initiative could wait, and Murphy never looked upon the cocky lightly. He presses a button on the laptop he was typing on and relaxes. All that strange teleportation and space ripping stuff Woundworts computer was doing made him a slightly easy to track target...

"Well No hard feelings Woundwort, after all, they said they needed more than one bartender, I'll just serve this side of the room..."

A Quick smile later RD turns round and undoes his collar, pulls on a pump to serve a drink, turns to say "Cheers" and watches satisfyingly as the ACME Homing weight that crashed through the roof and landed on Woundwort. Along it's side is the word "initiative."

RD whistles as he orders his transport outside to bring in some beverages that weren't American and from the Good Old Countries and Planets, he also brings out the old Starfury Cantina address book and hands it to Mac, the section entitled "FBW's."

The proximity alert goes off on Woundwort's wrist computer. There is a quick blip before the massive weight crashes through the roof onto the bar. Of course, the bar is now empty.

Another blip, and Woundwort is standing on top of the massive weight, surveying the wreckage of the bar (and the loss of all that good beer).

"RD, two things. One, you've got to stop wrecking the Boss's property. He just might be back one of these days, and I've got all your antics on record."

"Second, you've GOT to stop telegraphing your punches."

A quick series of punches on the wrist computer takes remote contol of the forklift bot bringing in RD's bootleg beverages. Woundwort sends it crashing into RD's table.

Woundwort salvages a bottle of Arrogant Bastard from the rubble, and toasts his adversary.

"Good to be back." http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/evil.gif

Looking at the pool of broken bottles around his table, and the destruction of part of the bar RD has to think fast.

"Since when Has been destroying the Boss's Property been a crime? We're on the....I lost count of how many cantinas there have been..."

Looks again at the destroyed beverages

"That's coming out of your Wage Slip, you break it, you bought it. I'm sure you got it recorded..." http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

RD turns to think about more important matters, mainly how we could get the Chainmail girl to work as an FBW here...

"Well, RD, usually he's the one doing the destroying. But be that as it may..."

A few taps on the wrist computer summons a pack of worker droids, who begin to clear out the debris from the bar and the table area. Meanwhile, another set of droids begins to reinstall the oak surface to the bar area. While they are at work, Woundwort activates the walkie-talkie on the computer.

"Sancho, bring in some of the stock from my ship for the bar. Make sure you throw in some European beers, too - and some Romulan Ale. We wouldn't want RD to have another fit, would we?" http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Wakened by a loud crash, The Old One looks around and sees that the old place is starting to look more like the old days, he waves at RD and GW as they move around behind the bar amongst all the new debris. hmm, The wize one pushes a button on his table and T-Rex appears from the parking lot. The wize one asks him kindly to clean up the mess on the floor as the weight is to much for a dustpan.. TR agrees after receiving his pay in a promise of tribble wings and begins the clean up. The old gentleman proceeds to mail a FBW application to our chain mail lady in waiting. Between her and the other FBW will give this old place some excellent eye candy http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/biggrin.gif

He then orders 2 brewskis, one from each of the new bartenders http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif Now if we can only find a new cook or two for the kitchen, we'll be back in business as usual he mumbles as he puts cooks wanted sign in all the local and interplanetary papers.....

David is sitting at his table and is rumaging through a heap of something that looks like spagetti muttering to himself, "I'll untangle this mess, don't worry, I can do it." As he notices the commotion at the bar he presses a button and erects a level 20 forcefield around his work area.

Cheers! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif
