You get back from a two week army camp and reactivate your lists, and the
next afternoon, all you get is 12 messages... *sigh*...


BULL! Lets get some off-topicness going 'round here!

Welcome home, Spike. Yup, it's been a bit quiet (maybe our FL should post
the statistics again, so everyone wants to improve thier rateings)
recently, but it's getting better...

Anyway, I've seen a MIME massage and one unedited quote of some k with only
one new line of text just a moment ago.
Go get some carp!

Could be because most of the universities just started winter
break. It's quiet around here, and I love it. :)

Does anime count? If so, throw in "Big Trouble in Nekonron, China"
and "Here is Greenwood" :):)

Point-One groaned as she read the header on the message. "Aw christ. E's
back. Wonder if he learned anything?"

She hit the open key, and skimmed the message. *groan* "I'm gonna kill him.
He ded. D-E-D ded."

<a few hours later>

"Ah-ha! There you are!" Point-One shouted. "I've been looking all over for
you! Hope your training was educational." She grinned at
He-who-once-had-a-colourful-mohawk. He shrugged.

*SMACK*

The slap to his head left his ears ringing, and his eyes seeing stars.
"Don't encourage Wendibull! He's enough trouble to keep in line as it is!
With him behaving, the rest are starting to get the hint and forget the
Off-topic drek quicker. Don't ruin all our hard work!"

Point-One lit a stick, took a drag, and blew it in
He-who-once-had-a-colourful-mohawk's direction. "Men! They should learn to
respect their toys!" She grumbled as she stalked away.

Welcome Back Spike baybe! BTW folks I'm back too! De chica was a bomb. Se
la ve. Anyways.. Spike, you wouldn't by any chance have a picture of
yourself with a purple mohawk? If you did it would so fit my runner Smoken
Wakii Tobacii! You picture on Tinners(?) page matches him almost perfectly
except for the color 'hawk....

And now for some on-topic (blah) stuff...
How may of you run use the SR setting for other things besides
Shadowrunning? Things like Merc champains, Lost in Space, 20,000 leagues
under the sea, Safarri, etc..etc.. etc.. Please give examples of campains.

'fraid that's one colour I didn't use. Sorry. I tended to stick with Red,
Green and Blue. Never got 'round to anything else.

However, have you thought about giving it a bit of a tweek on the colour
scales? Most paint packages can re-adjust the pallet, so purple might be
only a few mouse drags away....

<Grump>. Go see some *real* Ranma. The movies/OAVs aren't that great.

ObOn-Topicness: I think Ranma needs to show up and harass my players
(possibly in an astral quest, possibly in a very silly RL session). Can
anyone help me with stats?

has an appeal :]
