Title: It has come to my attention...


nerulean - November 13, 2007 12:00 AM (GMT)
That the forum a lot of regular visitors, especially in the early hours of the morning, and yet we never actually see any new posts. So, I present a post, a little dark blue blob amidst all the no new posts pastel that we see far too much of. Possibly I'm sleep deprived. Possibly I'm a little sad. Possibly I'm procrastinating. But chances are, so are you, so you have no excuse not to reply.

Overmind - November 13, 2007 12:30 AM (GMT)
Hay, you got back before me - but that not surprising when I have to fight through the 4 people deep wall around the bar at the union - just to get a ticket,

*amids the dark blue blob, a room appears; it has four walls, two windows and a door, with a welcome mat at the entrance.*

welcome to the room - bring furniture

neondragon - November 13, 2007 02:17 AM (GMT)
I am only posting in this thread because I will be incredibly berated if it is discovered that I visited and didn't post. <_<

I bring many wonders from far away lands. :rolleyes: (Well, only mini cheddars really, but shhhh!)

Pandemonium - November 13, 2007 09:10 AM (GMT)
I bring... rocks.

*Presents Steve.*

What a wonderful piece of granite he is. Better watch out for those limestone types though.

*Steals toilet roll from Geography department.*

Charamei - November 13, 2007 09:26 AM (GMT)
I bring a post.

It has little content, but lo, it is a post.

And slowly, yea, a pearl of wisdom doth embed itself in the emptiness:

'Lose? How can we lose when we're being led by an absent werewolf, a non-combatant bard, a half-orc wannabe paladin who's as charismatic as two bags of bricks, and an evil half-elf with a fake moustache?'

*GASP*

You have omitted a crucial member of the team!

Hoo boy, is there going to be trouble now...

Overmind - November 13, 2007 04:04 PM (GMT)
so we have a door, mini chedders, steve and some wisdom.
Well I think steve can go in one corner = holding up the cabonet into which can go the mini chedders = = as for the wisdom - it might work as a coaster

Better?

[My Rules Compendium arrived today. It's surprisingly small - thinner than the SC.]

Ajwz - November 13, 2007 07:55 PM (GMT)
Seriously, what have you been smoking in my abscence?

Also, I bring influenza. ::hooray::

Overmind - November 13, 2007 08:22 PM (GMT)
you think they have to smoke to get to this level of maddness - they have a way to go before we even get near the intoxication levels!

*jabs people randomly with influenza cure (my own make!)*

You really can't lose when our main meat shield has a habit of falling flat on his face when trying to rob village treasuries of their gold.

Good old Dead Guard. ;)

Overmind - November 13, 2007 10:05 PM (GMT)
I wonder what pan wants with all those rolls of sand paper?

Wait... you guys have a meat shield?

*is jealous*

Fighter + Bard + Enchanter + Bogun + Stalker does not a balanced party make.

And I laugh at Ajwz's influenza! My Fortitude is strong! Strong I tells ya! *cough, cough, hack, splutter, croak*

...I can breathe through my nose, does that count?

As to what we've been smoking, I don't know, but I have all these character sheets and backstories all of a sudden...

I never thought I'd say this, but things actually got crazier after you left! You can tell by the fact that we spent an entire week arguing (in character) about the (fictional) working of warlocks, having our mistakes pointed out by a lump of papier mache.

neondragon - November 15, 2007 11:28 AM (GMT)
I should be writing an essay about snails at this point in time.

Overmind - November 16, 2007 12:43 PM (GMT)
urrgh!
Well I think either subway, the student shop or tescos (or all three) are trying to kill me, spent all of yesterday -- well I think you can guess what I spent all of yesterday doing!
All I can say is that today I am better - hungry and tired

So what exciting things have happened to the rest of you?

nerulean - November 16, 2007 01:06 PM (GMT)
Man, everyone has the ills at the moment.

Though since I'm going down to see my granddad in Wells where we will be standing outside for several hours in the freezing cold, I will probably soon join the ranks of the invalids. Drat.

Overmind - November 16, 2007 01:09 PM (GMT)
its winter at uni - and its midterm deadline time -- just the right time to catch the ills

Would this be Wells as in city of Wells, good old Somerset? Ooo-arrr, ye be heading to moi patch, better be having yer tractor ready and yer angry mob at hand. We likes a good riot!

Anyhoo. My plan is coming together! Muahaha. All will be apparent in good time... Yes. Yes it will.

*Steals another toilet roll from the Geography department.*

I'm a bad pet owner... I left Steve at Kev's. :( Reckon the British Geological Society will fine me for cruelty to defenceless rocks?

Ulgulanoth - November 17, 2007 05:37 PM (GMT)
have u thought of stealing toilet paper from other departments yet?

nerulean - November 18, 2007 05:07 PM (GMT)
Wells in Somerset indeed. The smallest and, consequentially, possibly the nicest city in the country. We went to see the carnival, which has surprisingly increased in size and impressiveness since I last went as a very small person. I think I saw young Zyar on one of the floats!

Charamei - November 18, 2007 08:51 PM (GMT)
I just typoed 'Propertius' as 'Poopertius'.

*headkeyboard*

Ah, well, enough procrastinating. Back to the essay of doom.

Overmind - November 18, 2007 09:40 PM (GMT)
a single post does not qualify for procrastination - you need more, stay longer post more!

Charamei - November 18, 2007 09:52 PM (GMT)
Nooooo!

I'm already halfway through my 'all-nighter' chocolate, I have to finish before I get really tired and/or run out! :P

(Of course, it would go quicker if I wasn't reading the WotC boards at the same time...)

237 words! Go me, go me...

*dies*

NEED REZ PLZ.

One of the problems with being essentially idle, is that it becomes harder and harder to procrastinate. Life being essentially devoid of deadlines at the moment.

Any suggestions ?

NaNoWriMo offers much procrastinatory potential :D

Overmind - November 18, 2007 10:58 PM (GMT)
you could branch out and offer to do other peoples essays kev - that would at least give you some deadlines and us more free time - infact I can't think of a down side to this plan yet

I'd have thought it'd be too late to get involved with that?

Oh, sure, for this year.

But he's got a whole year to procrastinate over next year's...

I can. How many of you would actually trust me to write things on which your future could depend.

Can you imagine some of the comments I might slip in.

nerulean - December 9, 2007 03:05 AM (GMT)
Take THAT, essay! 1701 words and over 48 hours until deadline time. I may even have time to revise, edit and add stuff. Jo 1, Essay 0.

Overmind - December 9, 2007 01:59 PM (GMT)
Wow!
I think you are breaking rules there!
your supposed to keep writing right up until there is only time left to print off the thing (and usually have a good cursing session at the computer centre printers as they rebel against the concept of being used to print off stuff)

scotskevin - December 17, 2007 06:42 PM (GMT)
It's been two days, and no posts. Everyone hibernating or something ?

nerulean - December 17, 2007 08:44 PM (GMT)
Got to admit, that sounds tempting... Sadly, still in the waking world, and now back in the north of it, too. *insert Blackpool rant here*

scotskevin - December 17, 2007 09:12 PM (GMT)
Blackpools not that bad. Used to go for day trips there when I worked in Glasgow.

Nope, genetic engineering.

Overmind - December 23, 2007 11:50 PM (GMT)
this place - it is so quiet
it should not be, but it is - I think I see mold growing in the corners; crikets chirping in the grass which pushes through the ground and I sware I just saw tumble weed roll on by
