All right, I'm going to pull my name from Australia. Given the 1 RL week = 1 in game day, I don't know if I'd be able to keep my posting rate consistent enough to make it work. I only have access to 17th Shard weekdays, from 8am-4pm local time, and even then it depends on what's happening at work.

 

More importantly, I don't have access on weekends, which is when most of the activity will likely be happening. Potentially forcing the whole thread to grind to a halt because I don't have the capability of signing on until Monday is far from ideal, and that's assuming I'll have time to post on Monday rather than Tuesday.

 

I really liked my Epic too... :(

 

Also, Corvallis update: my work plate is quite full today. I might be able to free up enough time to write my post. I promise I've not forgotten about it!

Sorry to hear, though I'm sure if the test works out well there'll be other similar threads which run slower so keep the idea around. And then go insane an give it 10,000 idea friends. :P

Give in to the Dark Side!

As in, fade to black. I don't really want to keep writing this...

Sure that's completely understandable, actually I'm pretty sure that I would have made the cut even if you had another post in the scene.

I'd like that. We could pincer movement Adelaide and Melbourne and split the winnings. An alliance looks very appealing. No need to fight each other when we can destroy the rest!

Yes....

Let me say three things:

 

Watch the Fires Burning Across the River.

Hide a Knife in a Smile.

Befriend a Distant State While Attacking a Neighbor.

 

Cookie for everyone that knows what I'm talking about. :ph34r:

No....though I'm getting an Art of War vibe....

They are pretty similair in concept, yes. My favourite is Deck the Tree with Bogus Blossoms. :P

Posted

And how can blossoms be bogus, exactly? :P

Imagine, Lightwards being a tree and decking himself with blossoms saying he's a totally awesome and fearsome Epic that none can rival. There may be a bit of a metahpor in here. :P

Metaphor? What are you talking about? I thought you were pulling a scene from page 105 of the Portland thread, featuring thirtydeaths!Lightwards. :huh::P

Maybe Lightwards reads the stragamen and interprets them to literally, which means he would be spending a lot of time trying to lure a lion down from a mountain. :ph34r:

Before or after he disguises himself as a tree?

He sure could be wearing that costume. :ph34r:

 

Talking about Lightwards, Kobold how are the chances of another post coming?

Kid 1: What are you being for Halloween? I am being a zombie.

WHIO player: I'm being Lighwards disguised by a tree?

Kid 1 backs away slowly.

Stratagems 9, 10 and 23? (I may or may not have the TV Tropes page for the 36 Stratagems bookmarked, for reasons. :ph34r::P)

I am now imagining Thirtydeaths!Lightwards taking the opportunity to pilfer a goat. Needless to say, it is hilarious.

:)

 

Not sure how he'd go about deceiving the heavens, but he could attempt the ocean-crossing if he ever went to Astoria. Maybe the "deceive the heavens" part refers to how he'd spend the whole time lying to Calamity about the year he spent as an undercover cop in Paraguay?

Going through the Stratagem list, and I found this one: 

 

Toss out a brick to attract Jade

 

If Lightwards has learned Funtimes' real name is Jade by the time he reaches the 20 death mark, his interpretation of this stratagem will be hilarious.  :ph34r:
