Hmm, Mac looks over the paper work on Dogscoff's new credit loan sharking enterprise. beat 2000%, I'll have to think about it a little more...
Mac, pulls out his scientific, enhancing, credit tab transformer mini modus crafty exchanger. He punches in some numbers, pushes a button, and Ta Da, his tab has now been transferred to the Gryphin's account. Mac's tab shows 0 balance, 0 Due....

"Hi Rags" RD shouts merrily, And sits down next to him by a fence in the parking lot. The overdue members of the cantina are all lined up, GT is sitting happliy behind them mounted on barry with his party of cartoon heroes, fbw's weilding electronic devices and a whole horde of ninja shrimps and mongooses. "This should be a good chase!" exclaims rags as he pulls out some binoculars and a card with a bet on for who will survive longest. RD smiles and cashes in a bet with GT. "Hmm i'm going for gryphin, he's a crafty customer" also gt women are a sport, it's called "bird watching" up here and it can let you pass many merry hours. *The chase is let loose and the in debt cantina regulars run for their lives, this could be fun!* |

Muhhaha, i sit in my room, plunged in eerie darkness, the only light glowing from the aura of the computer screen. I sit, waiting for my turn to end. I am the leader of the Deadstar Allinace, i am High Regent Deadstar, i am at war with the pesky force that is the Ixaris Continuum, but they are going to get whats coming to them, oh yes they are in for it. An evil smile spreads across my lips as i order my 3 fleets to converge into their main system. Sweat drops off my forehead as i plan the landing of 500 troops on their main homeworld. Each step must be carried out perfectly. I'm about to sned out my Last fleet, the only thing standing between my demise and the destruction of the ixaris. I'm about to sign them to galactic history when all of a sudden.
"Do the Dishwasher!!!" My hand slips from this rupture in my solitude. My ships use all their movement to move next to the planet i want to destroy. "Do the dishwasher??? I'm the f&@%$Łg High regent, this household chore has just cost me my 10 step plan to galactic domination!!!! How dare thee disrupt such plans, now the plague of ships can be seen flying to my home planets."

Growltigga walks into the cantina having spend a pleasant weekend away at a castle in the Lake District.
Oleg, I didn't notice the earthquakes (I was in Cumbria anyway) but I was in Athens about 15 years ago when there was one of about 5 on the ruchter scale and that was a real rectal-prolapse experience I can tell you.... Growltigga walks over to the automated accounting system and checks the current position of cantina finances...hmmmm.. takings are well down...OK, drastic steps are needed... as I am in such a good mood, all cantina regulars can have a tab up 1,000 minerals, provided that they are home-owners and sign this second mortgage form I am handing out...

You, you... lawyer!

Re: Ye New Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina - After Hours
Timstone, thank you. You do say the nicest things. Yes I am a lawyer and I like to think quite a good one and after spending all this time making other people rich and not myself (such are the rigours of being the oil that lubricates the wheels of industry), I think it is only fair that people who run a tab either give me a charge over their homes or alternatively, take up mine or Dogscoff's generous offers of external financing..
Which are you going for? (or are you still tinkering with your gearbox?) |
Re: Ye New Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina - After Hours
Haha... alright you're a good laywer and you consider yourself a indispensable part of our society, and you haven't made yourself rich?! Hmm... something smells fishy here. Lawyers aren't the most poor people on this Earth. I think you're not quite broke. I think you've done well enough to buy yourself some nice cars and of course a beautyful house.
But considering yourself one of the main parts in our society is a bit over the top, don't you think. The next thing we read is that I consider myself the president of the EU only because I designed their powergenerators (Hmm... a plan to take over the world is forming in my head. "Come Pinky, we'll do it next evening, when everybody is asleep!"). Let's put this straight, I'm not criticising (is this spelled right?) you, I'm just joking.

Oleg, we just had another tremour, damn scary that, the whole building lurched in a very alarming manner
|
Re: Ye New Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina - After Hours
Ouch, that boulder damn hurts!
Next time I should bring an umbrella. May I ask where you riside, Oh ye great furry feline? And what was the force of the tremour? |
Re: Ye New Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina - After Hours
I work in Manchester (but reside further south) and I think the force of the tremour was about 2 on the richter scale so nothing major but it doesn't half make you jump when it happens I can tell you
|
Re: Ye New Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina - After Hours
We've had (in my livetime) 2 very small quakes. I didn't feel the first one because it was in the middle of the night, but the second I did feel. It was in the early morning. It was kind of scary to feel the earth shake. I think that quake was 1 on the Richter scale.
|
Re: Ye New Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina - After Hours
It is not good. I was in Athens about 15-16 years ago when they had a 30 second quake. I cannot remeber how powerful that one was but it went on for about 30 seconds, which was 29 seconds of trying to work out what was happening and then 1 second of losing bladder control...
Horrible, absolutely horrible. My dad once sailed through a small tsunami when he was in the navy and said it was one of the most terrifying things that had ever happended to him (other than finding out one of his sons was going tobe a lawyer) |

Re: Ye New Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina - After Hours
Maybe, but it generally is only a disturbance in the force if the client doesn't pay within 30 days, and then you have to stray toward the dark side by chopping their legs off at the knees...
Light sabres in the pocket? no, as lawyers, we just know that we have the biggest todgers around Cumbria was cool, stayed at a castle near Appleby/Brough, nice place, weather was horrible |
Re: Ye New Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina - After Hours
*Dogscoff wonders what the hell he's supposed to do with a lifetime's supply of Babycham. He sure as Flock isn't going to drink it. He also wonders whose lifetime he got - he doesn't drink the stuff, so surely there should have been exactly 0 bottles delivered to his battlemoon, instead of the delivery he did get which forced him to drain one of his monster breeding oceans to accomodate it. Dougal, one of the radioactive giant penguins, didn't get out in time and has (oddly) grown a mullet in some kind of wierd physical reaction.
Suddenly, Dogscoff has an idea. As an experimet, he has 40 crates of the stuff brought down from the battlemoon to the mini resource converter machine. 40 crates of nasty girly 80s yuppie piss go in, 1200 minerals come out. He uses the money to buy an extra fine bottle of Vaxin absynthe for 1150 minerals and a copy of Moulin Rouge on DVD with the remaining 50. Crap film, but he wants to see the bit at the beginning with Kylie Minogue as the absynthe fairy again. And again. He puts the film on and cracks open the bottle, inviting everyone in the cantina to have a hallucinagenic tipple and look for fairies... |
Re: Ye New Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina - After Hours
Hahaha... a downright killing joke RD, you should be sued for that!! LOL!!!
Hmm... timetravel with a gearbox. Crazy enough, it might just work. Timstone goes to his ship with his mind pondering about the possibilities. Dogscoff: Wow, I'll join you with that Vaxin absynthe!! Since I went to the Czech Republic, I'm a BIG fan of absynthe. Damn shame I can't buy it in my country. We have all a junkie could wish for but no absynthe. Absurd, isn't it!

Re: Ye New Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina - After Hours
Growltigga thanks Dogscoff profusely for his able assistance and thinks that every evil dictator needs a well equipped, nasty, and techologically able henchperson to assist.
Growltigga also credits Dogscoff's tab with a 1,000 minerals and a lifetime supply of babycham Growltigga walks over to the pair of arms and legs sticking out from under the large grain of salt. "Yes Timstone, lawyers are the guardians of the fabric of society and keepers of the gates holding back the forces of chaos, we ensure that life's little problems are smoothed (for an appropriate fee) and also ensure that law, which after all surrounds us and binds us, works in one's favour. We are kind of like Jedi Knights albeit more expensive, better dressed and naturally in pinstripes, more stylish and more cutthroat" Growltigga leaves an invoice for Timstone to find when he gets out from under the salt boulder, together with his business card and the address of a good personal injury lawyer |

Re: Ye New Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina - After Hours
I dont like ammo depletion, I dont like the idea of my archers shooting off 20 odd arrows and then standing around like a bunch of goons, you would think that they would ensure they had sufficient ammo
|
Re: Ye New Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina - After Hours
ahahhhh but...
your archers are defending the critical bridge over the river, the lst 3 assaults were driven back with heavy loss, the enemy however is reforming for another rush, your men look to their arrows, find only enough for 1 more flight, they set their faces in grim lines, draw their short swords and thrusting knives, prepared to defend hand to hand the rushing horde of maniacs. You move up your pikes to strengthen the line, its all or nothing.... |
Re: Ye New Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina - After Hours
I thought Archers, (espcialy the English Longbow armed kind), normaly deployed with sharpened stakes to impede said charges.
|
Re: Ye New Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina - After Hours
my good gryphin, archers back in the older days, carried various types of equipment, usually short type sword/dagger oriented weapons not true swords in the weapon sense, they were smaller, shorter, lighter not meant for shock or heavy fighting but enough to defend themselves or as Last resort attack. Others carried other type defensive weapons, depending on time period involved. But yes they did carry back up weapons, some were just odds and end individual weapons, again depends on time period
just some ideas mac |
