  1. The official records also say that President Snow was a kind and loving man, and that Panem will last forever. By the way (and I apologise for my blindness if this has already been asked or answered) which Hunger Games is this? The 23rd?
  2. I can't believe I died so early on my first game as an Eliminator... WHY CRUEL WORLD WHY!!!!!!!
  3. Yeah, Brandon let Rubix and RainbowRose name this site after the 17th Shard. According to the Coppermind Wiki, 17th Shard used to be called Hoid's Compendium. truthwatcher, are you asking for what intent the 17th Shard would follow?
  4. Huh. A Group's that's finally dedicated to something of importance. I probably will participate in the discussions.
  5. I go on a hiatus for a week, and the 4th Question Thread fills up. Sheesh, the Oregon Planning Threads are starting to look like a Test...
  6. Going on a temporary hiatus for the next 7 or so days. Let's hope no-one passes me in rep while I'm gone.

  7. One day, Great Sanderson will race us puny Australians with his presence. One day In the distant non-existent future . I apologize for not contributing here for the past few days. I've started playing League of Legends, and let's just say that time flies while you're inside the Fields of Justice.
  8. So, uh, we got a new suborum called the "Reckoner's RPG". Yay! About time we Oregon writers got a subforum! Strangely, however, the new subforum doesn't appear on mobiles.
  9. A subforum called the "Reckoner's RPG", huh? Looks like the admins finally gave in to our 2000-paged threads.
  10. So, recently my laptop's battery decided to commit the noble act of seppuku. As chivalrous as it was, it left my laptop useless. I won't be able to post 'till tomorrow, but I will be able to check in with my phone (I don't like posting with my phone. It does all kinds od random things.). Winter Cloud, I highly reccommend clearly reasoning out your arguments, and make logical choices. It'll make you a more effective and useful player.
  11. Normally, mostly harmless players like Ashiok would be killed off by the Eliminators around Mid-Game (Cycle 3-5). Like I said before, for Ash to be killed off at the start while there were more dangerous players running around is a bit of an oddity to me. he may have been a "safe choice", but Eliminators don't tend to kill "safe targets" at the start.
  12. It puzzles me why the Spy Teams decided to kill Ashiok. There were plenty of more dangerous and targeted players around (*Cough* Meta *Cough*). Of all the players, they chose Ashiok, a Darkeye. It would have been understandable if they had killed a Lighteye, since the Spies would have more control of the Secret Vote, but why would they kill a largely harmless target like Ashiok? The Spies couldn't have known he was a Messenger. I can draw three conclusions from this:: a) A/Both member/s in the Spy Team that were responsible for the kill had some kind of grudge against Ash. The two Spies in the Spy Team that were responsible for Ash's death were rather wildcard, if not new to this game. c) The Spy Team that were responsible for Ash's death are trolling us. I'm leaning towards the third possibility, since Ash hasn't gained a rivalry or grudge I know of.
  13. If I remember correctly, it only takes a majority in the Lighteye vote to lynch someone. Lemme check. Am I implying something? I am merely stating a possibility. Winter Cloud, what makes you so suspicious of me? Update: Yep, the extra vote is placed on the person with the most Secret Ballot votes. The Spy's would only need to get lucky or somehow vote with someone else, and we'd have an accidental lynch on our hands.
  14. ​It just occurred to me that the Spies could use the Lighteye's vote to lynch a player. There is most likely at least 1 Lighteye Spy, if not 2, and the Lighteye vote is the perfect anonymous way for them to conveniently kill someone, if we happened to have a tie in the votes. Unfortunately, I cannot think of a bullet-proof plan to avert this. Anyone have ideas?
  15. (Sigh). WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY AM I ON TEAM GOOD AGAIN GAAAAARGH! WHHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY! WHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY! (Cough) (Sob) I am frankly a bit confused about this game. Let me get this straight: There are multiple Eliminator teams, each comprised of 2 people, and they can only kill us on Highstorms? Jain lay weeping on his bed. Why had he been brought back? Why had he been wrenched from his place in the Tranquiline Halls? he had been at peace there. Now he was back again. Jain glared at the toy panda on the other side of the room. the innocently cute and cuddly toy smirked back. Once again, Jain could have sworn he saw a red glint in the panda's eyes.
  16. Hmm... Wonder what's the Oregon equivalent of the Easter Bunny... Maybe The Panda should create an actual Easter Bunny. When is What Happened in The Dalles set?
  17. This was the first post Kobold ever made (or at least, received rep for). It makes me cry how such a simple and innocent post spawned a juggernaut of upvotes.
  18. Australia isn't that inhospitable. So long as you don't mind every second thing trying to kill you. In all seriousness, though, it depends on where you live. I live in suburban Melbourne, so apart from the occasional extremely-large-hairy-and-fanged-spider-that-pops-up-every-3-months-or-so, there's not many creepy-crawlies (Probably because of the 4-seasons-a-day weather that Melbourne is infamous for). I certainly have not seen a snake outside of a zoo in Melbourne. Which is a real pity, since snake meat apparently tastes nice. Some of my friends who live further in the outback, however, can attest that venomous cobras and such are an everyday ordeal. People and books often tell you a lot about the "outback" of Australia for a reason. The much-acclaimed outback is a very unique place. Most of Australia (particularly the Central areas) is desert. The strip of land around the coast of Australia is probably the only area that resembles any "normal" and habitable land. The outback is the in-between. The outback is a semi-desert environment that sits between desert and habitable land. Words can't really describe it. Imagine a land of sandy and red soil, stretching for as far as the eye can see. Spotted across the land are various clumps of plant growth, twisted and slightly bleached from the harshness of Australian outback weather. Occasionally, small forests of thin gum-trees (the eucalyptus kind, not the rubber-producing sort) sporadically cover areas. Patches of grass huddle together in random areas, leaving conspicuous bald spots that reveal the unique reddish soil of Australia's outback. It's a beautiful place, in a rugged kind of way. It's also where the majority of Australia's unique animals live. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Speaking of the poisonous and otherwise lethal creatures of Australia, I am reminded of a certain event that occurred while on a school camp once. Our school had chosen a spot in The Middle of Nowhere, Somewhere In Outback Australia. As I said before, a lot of Ausrtalia's animals lived in the Outback. It's also where the majority of spiders live. One night, we were camped in a particular area that had a suspicious amount of small, volcano-like holes rising out of the ground. Our guides and teachers assured us that no arachnids or other creepy-crawly inhabited the holes, so were semi-placated as we went to sleep. We were sharing two-man tents. In the middle of the night, the friend I was partnered with woke up and told me he was going to the toilet. Regulations demanded that we alert out tent-buddy if we had to leave our tent during the night, in case someone fell down a 50-foot giant ant pit or something. I replied drowsily that I knew what he was doing, and could he please shut the blasted tent flap since the tent was becoming awfully cold. My friend proceeded to leave the tent... and scurry back inside while emitting the most un-manly shriek I had ever heard. Curious about what had frightened my friend, I stuck my head outside the tent, and stuck it back inside as fast as my friend. The ground was carpeted with spiders. Carpeted. I had never seen such a large congregation of the eight-legged critters. The ground was basically a writhing mass of spiders, large, small and ginormous. The holes which our peers had assured would contain no spiders vomited out spiders at a horrifying rate. Nowadays, I have issues with sleeping in the outback.
  19. Ah, Minecraft. Fun times. Key in the following command on your chat. Remember to have cheats enabled: /summon Fireball ~ ~1 ~ {ExplosionPower:100,direction: [0.0,0.0,0.0]} Hit the resulting fireball at anything that's not the sky or water. Enjoy. Disclaimer: Lightsworn Panda is not responsible for the detruction or immolation of structures caused by the above command. Sunburned is quite an apt name for Australia. To give you an idea of how sunbaked we are, I once left a piece of bread outside in the sun in the middle of summer. I came back 10 minutes later, only to find a perfectly good piece of toast. We also have temperatures of around 45 degrees Celsius, or 113 degrees Fahrenheit. Makes you wonder why a Panda is living in such conditions.
  20. I am rather perturbed that the Stormfather is "Barking Mad".
  21. If I didn't know better, I would've thought that it was April Fools Day, what with all the name changes... I'm thinking of a character that'll solve the communications problem. I'm really tempted to create a character called The Suspension of Disbelief who has the power of, well, suspending disbelief.
  22. (Sniff) I can't believe you forget the panda. (Sob) I never noticed that your profile picture was actually a person with spiked eyes... Look at the attached Panda Chibi I found... Also, welcome to the world of white-text Sanderson Elimination. ERMACALAMITY SO CUTE He wasn't made for that role. He's just a character I made for fun. Thank you!
