the winter system Posted January 1, 2019 Report Share Posted January 1, 2019 I just started it a bit early because people kept talking about it. So, you know, whatever. Remington Springfield. .22 caliber rifles. Pugs? Parties? Cake? Happy New Year's, ya'll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TwiLyghtSansSparkles Posted January 1, 2019 Report Share Posted January 1, 2019 If I could draw, I would draw Remington Springfield at a pug party with a cake shaped like a .22 rifle. Alas and alack, all I can provide is the mental image. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think he really could die to something as simple as a state razing Epic gang war fueled massacre. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Young Pyromancer Posted January 2, 2019 Report Share Posted January 2, 2019 Nah. He probably died while jumping out of a burning building shirtless, shooting at a helicopter with a rifle in midair, when his rifle jammed and blew up in his face. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or at least, that’s what he wants you to think. ...I just realized Remington Springfield is the Chuck Norris of the Oregonverse. Actually no, he’s better, because is Chuck Norris named after two rifles? No. No he is not. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, he was located in The Dalles, which is where Remington was from. So either there was a mentor-student relationship, or The Dalles was the epicenter of a lot of badchull energy. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the Dallas just sort of accumulated coolness, in the same way Portland accumulated weirdness. And in the same way Edmonton is accumulating shenanigans. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the different RP cities were high school cliques, The Dalles would have been the cool daredevils; Portland would have been the kids who dared each other to gargle ketchup or marry a slice of pizza; and Edmonton would be the pranksters who are sometimes entertaining and sometimes go too far with their pranks. Want to hear what we'd planned for Remington, by the way? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So we'd planned for Remington to kill Lightwards by triggering his weakness. Most likely as Oregon crumbled. Which would be quite the musical. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voidus Posted January 2, 2019 Report Share Posted January 2, 2019 Just Lightwards? He wasn't going to line up Lightwards, Corpsemaker and Altermind and trigger all their weaknesses at the same time and then shoot a single shot through all 3 of them? Not gonna lie, I'm a little disappointed. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although, if you know Lightwards' weakness, that makes Remington's victory a bit….thornier. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
breakingamber Posted January 2, 2019 Report Share Posted January 2, 2019 WTF happened? This thread was deader than my grandmother, and when I check back, there's not just one, but TWO more question threads? Sign me back up. I'll think of something more productive to post here later.
