Re: Ye New Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina - After Hours
i read that. it sounds interesting even if it may get confusing. what would you do to keep track of where the forum is at any one time? would you put a link from the old location to the new one in the Last post so people can jump to it or make people manually track it down?
|
Re: Ye New Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina - After Hours
Let's put a link from the old location to the new one. Otherwise, it will be really hard for people to find the new one, especially if we jump to totally unrelated forums on other web sites, like forums on gardening, stocks, cooking, or whatever.
|
Re: Ye New Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina - After Hours
The best way to keep track of where the conversation is being held would be to keep a thread here on shrapnel with all the URLs listed. Just go to the shrapnel thread for the latest URL, then follow it to join up with the rest of the boarding party.

Re: Ye New Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina - After Hours
Hmmm, for what it is worth, I am not a fan of the forum hopping boarding party concept. I frequented another forum where we had something similar happen to us and even though it was only for a couple of days, and even though the intruders were polite etc I must admit that the rest of the Herb Society members felt a little violated...
The discussions in the cantina can be a little rowdy and raucous, I think we should keep them here where they can be coralled and self contained and suitably moderated by upstanding members of the SEIV community such as Geo and Atrocities Just MHO |

*Raging Deadstar walks in to the cantina after a weeks abscence and orders a rather large brewski. As he begins to drink yet another night away he hears a large clang and the loud metaql bashing gets closer*
Clang Clang, Clang Clang, Clang Clang! *Turning around he notices GT walking towards him with FBW's and clones hanging from his arms all ready to test drive his new "titanium tinted testicles". Gt clangs off into the distance and RD, looks around* Say why's it so quiet in here, maybe macs ticker packed in when GT popped his happysacks or the resulting soundwave knocked out the regulars navigation systems. *Wanders over to rags* Hmm whats this, a testicle manipulation device? what happens when its turned to a lower setting? *Ragnarok screams now his testes are the size of peanuts!* SORRY RAGS! I didn't know it would do that! *Runs off into the distance screaming for forgiveness whilst the fbw's all laugh at ragnarok* |
Re: Ye New Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina - After Hours
Rags is still beat red with embarrassment from what RD did to him. He covers himself with his hand (I don't know how I didn't have pants on in the first place) and he runs to the restroom. He looks all over the place for his teste device to fix what happened to him. He finally finds it and low and behold the dang batteries are dead. Rags examines to room in mcgyver(sp) to find what he could use to charge up the device. He then spots the loo worshipers and he asks them for some help. They then pull out a device that looks like it holds alot of energy. Rags plugs it into his device and he returns his twig~n~berries back to their normal spot. (Well maybe a bit larger) http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif
And he thanks the loo worshipers and he runs out of the restroom in chase of RD. "Get back here! I'll forgive ya once I get my revenge!" The chase goes on for a few minutes and Rags activates a new device that made a invisible poll come up from the ground right in front of RDs path. RD is running at full speed when he whacks himself on the poll that only came up to his private region. Rags stops to catch his breath and he exclaims, "I forgive ya buddy, drinks on me." RD is still in pain as he sits at the bar and drinks his brewski on Rags' tab. |
Re: Ye New Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina - After Hours
rags, that has to be one of the shortest chases in history! I was expecting so much more, with 'New Testies'. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

Re: Ye New Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina - After Hours
I agree with Growltigga, we should 'contain' the chaos and madness of this thread affectionately known as "The Cantina" right here in the SE:IV forum. Of course that does not mean that we should (Or could) contain the chaos/madness within the Cantina itself.
I was thinking that we could maybe do a bit of remoddling in the Cantina, like add a nice firing range and maybe a swimming pool! I'll even donate 1,000,000 minerals towards the reno's. That should get things off to a good start! Cheers! |
Re: Ye New Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina - After Hours

*Is still smarting from the pole that sprang up from nowhere and limps over to the bar*
I havn't been on much becuase my new laptop has a very slow interent connection, we're talking 5 minutes to load the forums main page. Mlmbd wanted a good chase??? *Raging Deadstar grabs the testicle enhancing/decreasing device and pumps it up to high, not enough to cuase a GT scenario but enough for this particular days fun. On activating it Mlmbd begins to feel a tickling sensation not unlike that time in high school when the class whore took him to the janitors cupboard... whoops i'm digressing off the subject. Mlmbd watches as his "happy sacks* expand to stud proportions and the FBW's gather round excitedly, Mlmbd tries to try his chances and begins to buy drinks for the gathering crowd of waitresses. A few minutes later mlmbd begins to levitate slightly off his bar stool and minutes later is begining to float out through the newly installed skylight. Raging Deadstar walks over and finds the cupboard where timstone and his polish girlfriend have been hanging out and pulls out the Gravitational Hellbore and fires two rather large bLasts up towards the skies. Mlmbd is hanging from his weather baloon inflated nutsack upside down when suddenly he feels the most unreal pain ever. His testicles suddenly implode into nothingness and he falls to the ground, where Raging Deadtsra buys him a drink* No-ones chased mlmbd, i think it was about time http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif |
Re: Ye New Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina - After Hours
Who's "Scout class" Ship is double parked out front?
Better move it....Richard is on his way with a reducer to move it! |
Re: Ye New Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina - After Hours
primitive had parked his Light Cruiser well away from "Ye New Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong's Head Cantina". It is always best to be on the safe side, since the ship was stolen from the Phong's outside a pleasurehouse on Ghedran 3A, and primitive knew the Phong's had put a price on his head.
Walking the Last mile on foot, avoiding a double-parked Scout class ship, primitive only brought the most necessary of equipments: His Oakleys, a portable Ultra-Small Incinerator Beam V, and a rusty (yet pointy) spear. Entering the Cantina, primitive keeps to the shadows and find a silent table in a corner where he can watch without beeing observed. The Cantina seems to be a place of both pleasure and pain, of both frendliness and random violence. primitive decides he likes the cantina. primitve orders his favorite drink, and the bartender, seeing primitives bulging muscles and the rusty (yet pointy) spear, while silently thinking that primitive must have a bad hair day, offers to put the drink on someone called GTs tab. primitive takes a sip of his drink, leans back and watches the FBW's. |

I also feel sorry for Primitive as he will no doubt get chased. (All new comers get chased even if you're on good behaviour) But also I feel sorry for him for accepting the drink on Tigga's tab. You should have scoffed at the bartender for offering it on his tab.

In the cantina parking lot, an old, beat up, crusty Battle Cruiser lands. Apparently it has seen a lot of action or inaction http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif The ramp lowers and a suave, debonair, flashing, crusty old timer comes mozying down the ramp. he walks into the cantina, walks over to a table in the cornor, wipes off the cob webs, spiders, and other various vermin that infiltrated the space, sits down, orders his usual scrambled eggs, bacon, hash browns and a brewski, looks around at all the new faces, shakes his head, and mumbles where are all the loo worshipers, the Llamas, the sea minions, the furry feline kitty kat, the mischievious Gryphin, the Taz Devil,, aaa, getting old i guess, he picks up his research papers on Liz Hurly and starts to read while waiting for his sustenance....

Re: Ye New Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina - After Hours
The swing doors to the kitchen are pushed open and Growltigga can be seen peaking through, pointing his Napoleonic telescope toward the bartender.
"Right" sniggers the mighty feline, "any staff of mine that give funny Norwegians holding rusty (yet pointy) spears free drinks on my damn tab have asked for it...." the doors close again and then are pushed open by the tip of a very large steaming incandescent red hot poker ominously mounted on a cast iron trebuchet.... Growltigga reappears holding a pad with a green button, he walks over to the bartender and says "look, a 100 mineral note is lying on the floor" the bartender bends over excitedly, just as GT pushes the green button... The air sizzels and is parted by the passage of a 9 foot long red hot poker which unfortunately or fortunately depending on your point of view, hits the bartender right up the ringpiece.. The smoke clears, a gentle hammering can be heard as Growltigga is posting a new sign that says, "Barstaff wanted, great rates of pay and life insurance offered, come back Taz, all is forgiven".. GT walks over to the crusty old peasant in the corner who is seated on his favourite haemmorroid ring... "how's it going grandad? where have you been?" Something better happen soon as the kitchen is getting very full of killer mongoose |

From his place in the corner primitive watches the thumping tiger manhandle (cathandle) the poor bartender.
Realising he may be indirectly responsible for the loss of a valuable employee, primitive knows he should feel remorse. primitive searches his innermost feelings -- no, nothing there. Calling one of the FBWs, primitive orders more drinks and a mongoosekebab. Wonder whos tab this will be on ? |

...A sudden wind blows the door open and what looks like a miniature dust devil blows in.
The dust devil makes a quick circuit of the premises and pauses at a sign that says: "Barstaff wanted, great rates of pay and life insurance offered, come back Taz, all is forgiven".. Quick as a wink, the dust devil moves behind the bar and stops spinning. Taz, now visible, begins at once to set right all the mistakes that the 'other' bartender made.  Knew the 'Boss' would finally get tired of that 'incompetent pretender'  Imagine NOT taste-testing the potables. The bar hasn't been wiped in weeks! And not even a tribble wing in sight!!

Re: Ye New Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina - After Hours
Wow, 2 bartenders for the price of one, and both legendary and lethal lunatics. This might be fun.
Anyway, this ought to improve the service. The mongooskebab smells like somthing disgorged from the 3rd stomach of a pyrochette breeder, and primitve tosses it out the front door without tasting it. Outside, the mongooskebab is picked up and eaten by Barry. Obviously he has not been fed in a long time. Who's job is that anyway ? |

I wonder what happened to those health inspectors?" and he eyes the menu and spots some interesting sounding new dishes. "Civil Servant Souflee?" hmmm.
