thothkins

Gorlom: Is that thothkins? Gauddlike: Hmmm. there's no limp, hunchback or drooling so I don't think so. Gorlom: I wonder if not-thothkins gets a vote Not-thothkins: Thn futtom yun Gauddlike: Sorry? I didn't quite catch that through the heavy scarf and the Groucho disguise. Not-thothkins: Thn futtom yun! Gorlom: Hang on that's no fake nose! And look! Behind the scarf ...drooling! It is thothkins not-thothkins-but is: um...Remember! rigging elections is bad! It's selfish and greedy and a bad thing to do against people who have luckily caught you or you would have got away with it. Darn kids....

I hadn't read those either. They go into a little kickstarter folder along with updates of things I've backed. I believe my Kickstarter carrier pigeon ran into trouble too.

I was really meaning that the game should have balance to it. So, for every request we have to add device X to the game for the Xenonauts, it makes sense to point out that the aliens should have a comparable device Y to balance things out. Hence, walking around in their mine fields. You're right though, you can always forget where you put your own mines for comic and tragic outcomes. I imagine, that there would be enough squealing that the devs would have to add something to remind you though, should such a thing ever be implemented. A further point is that a lot of the game focuses on the combat abilities of the soldiers. Having mines detracts from this a bit, as would support weapons. Having said that, there are the tanks...

Possibly because you would curse every time you wandered into the land mines the aliens kept planting around their ships?

The upper one gives me that Star Wars feeling. I'm off to rebel against something dark with grilles now...probably the oven...

Thanks Gauddlike. I hadn't seen this.

If you keep going a bit further back and shouting I'll know when I've heard the last of you. That's it, just keep going. Mind the chair....oh that looked sore.

I was going to steer the topic back on course, but I tripped over something on the way to the wheel.

I've played several games of Target Earth, and tweaked it along the way, so I know that a UFO type board game can work nicely and be very enjoyable. All the best for the kickstarter and the game Telparion. I'll take a closer look at the weekend.

Now I'm getting a flashback of looking at your picture. When will the cycle of pain end? When?

Yes, I've been aware of the rise in near misses on those fronts since I joined here. My last encounter involved a piece of rocket propelled furniture. Double Threat! Ironically, the person shooting at me was hit by a baseball sized meteorite. Funny old world.

I stopped watching when every dinosaur programme had them wiped out by a comet at the end. Every one of them. It was keeping me up nights in dread trying not to think about the Oort cloud.

well, once you get to cats that's pretty much it. You're not missing anything else.

It's not like I told anyone that the password was Evil Shed or anything... ah.

I though the sewer level was an aspiration. Just flash your ferrro rocher, do the Comissar-is-shooting-at-me dance and you're in.

I'm not sure a lot of the posts are as close to the original post as the map suggests. Also, I've certainly seen no suggestions of anyone being serviced either, but perhaps there's a secret, hidden forum beneath this one?

Congratulations! You have won $10 million in the Xenolottery. To release these funds, please forward a small administration fee of $10k to our bank in Nigeria before the next terror attack hits it.

Did that change into being that you can't get tried by clone judges now? Bloomin' technology...bleedin' science...

The mutineers? No, I don't remember them. They were all shot way before I got here to maintain the catapult.

I've not heard it called "cahoots" before. Rising star forum members usually involve flamethrowers, catapults and the Commissar. Is that something we should be promoting? "Meat for the grinder" used to just be a figure of speech. But not so on the Xenonaut forums. The Rising Stars considered themselves lucky...briefly.

Do you want him bellydancing or Flashing? Make your mind up

"Yes... I sense a large chair....it's...it's on top of me. Help!"

I see you already know your stuff, diversifying into Fangles and Doohickies. Previous wise people also had an all purpose elixir to cure boils, unblock drains find true love (the bottle made a good bludgeon probably).

I clicked on this page and thought this was the next game

Yikes! Can you now predict the weather before it comes in with your ankle? Or is the weather already there before you feel anything? I'm sure there have been vacancies for village wise people since the witch trials.
