Is it a single-celled organism?

Jack Simth February 23rd, 2005 04:40 AM

Re: The Race to 1k Posts thread.. BYOP!
 
So far:
Animal
Not warm-blooded
Mostly Lives in Water
Native to Earth
No Gills
No Eggs
<= 1 lb, fully grown

That rules out hippos, aligators, crockadiles, and most lizards, bugs (including spiders)(eggs), fish, frogs; leaves small snakes, microoganisms(?)

All right! It's easy now... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif Just a process of binary elimination...

Is it one of the following in this list?
[amoeba, paramecium]

Is it an amoeba?

Jack Simth February 23rd, 2005 05:02 AM

Re: The Race to 1k Posts thread.. BYOP!
 
Whether that works or not depends on just how specific Narf feels like being....

narf poit chez BOOM February 23rd, 2005 05:06 AM

Re: The Race to 1k Posts thread.. BYOP!
 
How so? The minimum answer I can give is either yes or no.

And yep, it's an amoeba. Right on the 10.

I meant how specific on the object - tell me, how many varieties of Ameoba are there?

narf poit chez BOOM February 23rd, 2005 05:26 AM

Re: The Race to 1k Posts thread.. BYOP!
 
Probably a lot...But I've always played twenty questions as dealing with generalities.

Kamog February 23rd, 2005 05:27 AM

Re: The Race to 1k Posts thread.. BYOP!
 
Hmm, not sure what you mean by biologically manufactured, but yes, it consists mainly of minerals.

Dairy products, for one.

Since I'm getting tired, I'll leave with the traditional 'Is it bigger than a bread-box?'

Kamog February 23rd, 2005 05:33 AM

Re: The Race to 1k Posts thread.. BYOP!
 
Bread box? I assume it is a box that can hold a loaf of bread...

No, It is usually smaller than a loaf of bread.

A bread box is a box to hold bread, to slow down rotting and stuff like that. It's about the size of a large microwave.

Will we ever get to 1,000 posts? And when we do, will we stop there?

Oh and BTW this is my first post on this forum from someplace other than home.... I'm currently at TCC. For those of you from not around here, it's a community college. I just discovered it's computer room.

We shall stop when we will have made as many posts as is required to fill a Sphereworld in Proportions with Cultural Centers (with the Advanced Storage trait of course).

If you have never played Proportions, I will merely say doing that will take... well, quite a few thousand turns, thus allowing this thread to go on and on for as long as Sol Prime isn't blown up. And since nobody actually managed this feat, nobody will be to say there are too many posts in the thread.

Hey, there's a site (now down, but with several mirrors) that has around 80 shots from Episode III. Looks like it gives away most of the movie... I won't post a link, just go to slashdot and look for the story, and try the mirrors posted in the comments.

What double-post rule? We are allowed to make two posts in a row, and I haven't seen anyone post more than two posts in a row (not since Rathar's post, but you mentioned "double post rule" twice since then).

Rathar February 24th, 2005 10:01 AM

Re: The Race to 1k Posts thread.. BYOP!
 
Heh are you reallllly going to complain about a double (triple? quadruple?!) post in a thread clearly designed to pad posts http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif

I shan't do it again, just thought the humor fit!

You can post nonsense or make an interesting comment or post a pic, or a link etc..

The challenge has begun..

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

Good enough for me! You realise, of course, that while arguing on the rules, we take an active part in the Race?

Re: The Race to 1k Posts thread.. BYOP!
 
Perhaps we could start a trivia game. Anyone feels like asking questions?

Otherwise, you shall have to answer to this question: why are we posting in a thread for the sole purpose of getting to a specific amount of posts? It isn't even post-padding, as we are working for the Greater Cause, the Welfare of the Thread, and not for our own sake.

NullAshton February 24th, 2005 10:23 AM

Re: The Race to 1k Posts thread.. BYOP!
 
Its fun? I dunno, I'm doing it to get post padding as well.
