So how do you reckon the analysis of the Fiend Slynky? It certainly looks like he is hiding something; the worst case scenario is the only one that applies to Asmala.

Nonetheless, my hopes go to Joachim for no obvious reason. *Coughs* Granted, getting a short-lived first place in the Ratings might be enough of a reason for my ego, but... That will be something to brag about later on; I will of course "forget" about the sound beatings I took. How convenient.

Oh, Alneyan, I'm sure Asmala hasn't given away any important info ( http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif). And the picture he paints of his position...reminds me of a certain young French spy http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...s/rolleyes.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

You do not believe this conspiracy plot, do you? There is no such thing as a Frenchman in this place, or a spy, let alone a French spy. The total population of the universe can also be argued as being so close to zero it doesn't matter, and so even if there were a French spy, it would only be a product of your imagination (credits go to Douglas Adams for this part of the explanation).

Besides, we all know no youngster is playing SEIV, so a young French spy would be even more of an impossiblity. In this case, young is defined as "being a teenager". Asmala is only a façade for Primitive (Primitive knows how to speak Finnish, which is quite a giveaway), and a way to allow him/them to have some fun at SEIV. Most of their opponents cannot stand a chance against them, so Asmala/Primitive needs to play with himself to have an actual challenge. Erh, about Renegade... Well, I cannot claim to be able to use twisted (il)logic to solve all problems.

Stay tuned for next week's exciting (exiting might me more appropriate though) programme about "How to successfully prove you haven't just been trashed by Primitive, but actually won even if you had to surrender".

Well. I play SE:IV and I'm 19. Lol.

Just ahead of my time I guess. Oh, I plan to knock you all off the ladder and be king of the hill one day. No pressure, just time for the misers to pass on the torch =D

Ah, but that would be a fallacy. I am, in fact, 17 years old, and therefore you must all bow to my youth and strength!!

Hmmm, I have an internet outage for a few days, and what happens? People talk behind my back http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif Just kidding of course, but I actually am kind of confused as to how I came to be involved in this conversation! Perhaps I'm becoming even more insane.... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/cool.gif

Brianecy and Asmala are both 19 and some days/months old, so they are no longer teenagers; being a teenager ends after 19, and they are both after 19, if not quite 20.

For one reason or another, you have taken up the puzzling habit of giving your age in hexadecimal Renegade. As such, you are not quite 17, but rather... erh... 16+7 equals... 23! That's it.

This is not a completely false reasoning based upon insanity; instead, it is merely how the universe works, with no regard for common sense. I base this fact on the famous "What is the product of six by nine? 42" rule. Since it makes no sense by using a common approach to the problem, then we can deduce our whole perception is definitively too simple, and nothing is easy as it seems. For example, 6X9=42 implies the decimal system has no basis whatsoever; only another numerical system allows you to resolve this matter (such as base 13, where 42=4X13+2=54=6X9).

Nine>teen<. You're still a teenager as long as there's a teen in your age. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Narf, that is exactly what Alneyan said, just in different words...

After nineteen but not quite 20 is still 19 and a teenager. Someone needs to wake up. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Re: Are you tough enough to be the \"King of the Hi
 
Hush Narf, you do not have to point out the pitfalls of my false reasonings. Saying that "being 19 and some days is being older than 19, and such not longer being a teenager" was the only way to make my odd point, but it doesn't make much sense at all. Still, since when am I supposed to make sense?
