OK, people, I have 7 votes. There are 10 of us. I haven't voted, and
neither has Rand. I vote for 2 threads, just to be a pain and force a tie.
Well, that's not the only reason, but that's the reason you'll get.

The author (sorry, memory fails me) agreed to that, I think.
Personally, I can't wait to read that particular story (sounds bloody :)
Also, who hasn't voted? Let's get this over with, folks. If we lose
our momentum, we're dead in the water. I know that from grim, personal

Thank you very much ;^). I'm waiting for a time when I'm in a particulary
foul mood to write it. I want it to be the sort of story where, when the reader's
done, he just goes "whoa. This guy has some SERIOUS issues. I recommend immediate
psychiatric evaluation." And I use he, because more hes then shes would read
Shadowrun. Not to be sexist, just IMO.

I'm gonna visit the list archives in eight hours, and back check everyone who
voted. I'll then compare that to the list of people Doc' sent which has
everyone's vote on it, just to be safe. Then I'll send Kismet after the people
who haven't voted yet (all two of you. You WILL feel Kismet's wrath [or so she
told me] so HURRY UP!). All of that with a BIG OLD SMILEY FACE.

That would be me. I am the designated nag for the RAS
Project. The virtual Bad cop to Strago's good one. I'm
a Texan and have been married for almost 5 years. You
really don't want to test my supernatural nagging

Oooh, goodie! I get to be a cop! Does that mean I get a nightstick and
jackboots and a really shiny badge? Can a mercilessly taser those who don't
submit? Or do I have to be the "love one another" copy while you do that?
Cuz if that's so, I want your job, Kismet, and I'll resort to a revolt if I
don't get it. ;^)--

OK, that's your freebie boys and girls. The next comment to that effect
will, of course, result in a team of crack shadowrunners busting down your door.
You will then be stripped, placed in a burlap sac, and beaten with thin metal
sticks. After which, you will be flown up to 10,000 feet, where you will be
thrown out of the aircraft with a parachute attached to your back. The parachute
will open, depositing you safely in the middle of the artic. Oh, you'll still be
naked. Then, a pack of ill-tempered mutant polar bears with laser beams on the
tops of their heads will attack you, forcing you to run through the arctic circle
until you reach the outskirts of Canadian civilization. You will be forced to
live there the rest of your life, with a guy who knows Ryumyo and you drives a
Desert Rat with rhythenium polymers covering the entire tank (who's named 'Lizzy'
just because).

If I can make the punishment more extreme, I will. Don't force me to introduce
you to Thorin Skullcrusher and his "tests". I'm cruel, but not that cruel.

Smiley face ;^).

I will dignify it LOLOL! Strago you seem like a 'love
one another' kind of guy ;-) Tell me does your revolt
involve pink bunnies and rainbows? Hmm??? :)))

ROFL! Ok Strago. You get the bad cop badge. I will
even give you the golden epilady I had planned to use
should nagging fail to work. Best of luck.. Besides
trying to convince this bunch to "love one another"
should be highly entertaining on its own.

I wish I could take any of the credit for that, but all of that came from
a series of runs one of my friends (who we've nicknamed the EXTREMELY EVIL
GM) had us run. If anyone is a GM out there who'd like to have a campaign
which will TORTURE your players just because (not usually because of the
sheer numbers but the concept involved), let me know and I'll clue you in.

Thank you very much ;^). I'm waiting for a time when I'm in a particulary
foul mood to write it. I want it to be the sort of story where, when the reader's
done, he just goes "whoa. This guy has some SERIOUS issues. I recommend immediate
psychiatric evaluation." And I use he, because more hes then shes would read
Shadowrun. Not to be sexist, just IMO.

I'm gonna visit the list archives in eight hours, and back check everyone who
voted. I'll then compare that to the list of people Doc' sent which has

That would be me. I am the designated nag for the RAS
Project. The virtual Bad cop to Strago's good one. I'm
a Texan and have been married for almost 5 years. You
really don't want to test my supernatural nagging
abilities :) <insert evil maniacal laughter where

Oooh, goodie! I get to be a cop! Does that mean I get a nightstick and
jackboots and a really shiny badge? Can a mercilessly taser those who don't
submit? Or do I have to be the "love one another" copy while you do that?
Cuz if that's so, I want your job, Kismet, and I'll resort to a revolt if I
don't get it. ;^)--

OK, that's your freebie boys and girls. The next comment to that effect
will, of course, result in a team of crack shadowrunners busting down your door.
You will then be stripped, placed in a burlap sac, and beaten with thin metal
sticks. After which, you will be flown up to 10,000 feet, where you will be
thrown out of the aircraft with a parachute attached to your back. The parachute
will open, depositing you safely in the middle of the artic. Oh, you'll still be
naked. Then, a pack of ill-tempered mutant polar bears with laser beams on the
tops of their heads will attack you, forcing you to run through the arctic circle
until you reach the outskirts of Canadian civilization. You will be forced to
live there the rest of your life, with a guy who knows Ryumyo and you drives a
Desert Rat with rhythenium polymers covering the entire tank (who's named 'Lizzy'
just because).

If I can make the punishment more extreme, I will. Don't force me to introduce
you to Thorin Skullcrusher and his "tests". I'm cruel, but not that cruel.

Smiley face ;^).

I will dignify it LOLOL! Strago you seem like a 'love
one another' kind of guy ;-) Tell me does your revolt
involve pink bunnies and rainbows? Hmm??? :)))

ROFL! Ok Strago. You get the bad cop badge. I will
even give you the golden epilady I had planned to use
should nagging fail to work. Best of luck.. Besides
trying to convince this bunch to "love one another"
should be highly entertaining on its own.

You call that a punishment? Sounds like a walk in the park to me.

I wish I could take any of the credit for that, but all of that came from
a series of runs one of my friends (who we've nicknamed the EXTREMELY EVIL
GM) had us run. If anyone is a GM out there who'd like to have a campaign
which will TORTURE your players just because (not usually because of the
sheer numbers but the concept involved), let me know and I'll clue you in.
