I dunno. I just heard from a friend that there's this great big Rider fight which is basically the court system of that series. It sounds like good fun
Ah, Trial by Combat, eh? One thing I miss from Medieval times   :rolleyes:
so you think might makes right and you're lawful good ? doesn't make any sense.

Because in trial by combat, evil can win over good if it is stronger.
Except for the fact that we do the exact same thing here, only with robots- a far better way of doing so   :approve:

All I seem to dream is random crap, really- and I have trouble remembering what half the time.

My subconscious is a very scary place.

...so...

People think my bot's cheap?
Maybe, maybe not. Won't matter so much once I've lobbed it over the fence, though    :approve:

I unlocked the pony RP

Edit : oh wait where is it ? I hope I didn't pushed the move or delete button instead of unlock.

Edit 2 : Well I was searching for "Bradin" in the whole forum and it's not here. Whoops.  :confused:
I hope you deleted it
i hope you step on a lego
Both of them can go **** spears.

It's all a bit of fun, though. It's similar to what myself and GF93 seem to do, a bit of humorous trash-talking, some friendly banter, before he gets knocked out in the second round. :gawe:
Well, maybe that wouldn't happen if we actually got drawn against each other once in a while   XD

Or at least...if it'll work or not. Sorry.
They've got a few less crackpots than us :P
Hey, I like being a crackpot  XD
 
One thought does come to mind on the matter, though. Correct me if I'm wrong, but a seperation from the rest of the UK, only to accept Dominion from the EU doesn't seem to my mind representative of Independence. It's basically swapping from one master to another- and a considerably worse one at that.
Whatsmore, if Scotland does end up becoming a full-blown member of the EU with its miserable single currency, how long would it be until the other British nations (England, Wales and Northern Ireland) are forced to follow suit?
 
I might not be the brightest one on the matter, but common sense makes me think- stick with Britain and the Pound. The further all four of us remain away from Europe, the better- just look what happened to Ireland.
While perhaps true, several Eurozone countries have also benefitted while under it as their currency. Also, the fact is that the EU is overall the strongest economic power in the world; in addition Scotland may follow the political direction of several of the more successful EU countries and be able to follow it through due to the sheer amount of skilled workers who head to England and Scotland at the moment. In addition it might mean they don't need to have their heads up the US's ass constantly like we have for a very long time. (Plus Ireland has a greater GDP that us, which may be an obvious advantage of being in the eurozone, which makes sense considering the successes of Belgium, Luxembourg, Germany, Netherlands, ect.) Also, Scotland has a monstrous potential for capitalizing on renewable energy which it has the perfect enviroment for. Lastly, Scotland is the largest exporter of petrol.
Simply put, they have good potential to survive on their own rather than feeding their cash to us, and if they do join the eurozone the potential for exports will just increase.
Yes...on a side note, and this probably irrelevant, but if it does go ahead, then hopefully they'll at least keep the Pound (Scottish or otherwise) as currency rather than the Euro, still use the white stripe on the Union Jack, and keep good trade and relations with the rest of the UK rather than completely isolating themselves.
England's still a member of the EU, so relations would probably still be kept fairly nice, but I see no reason for them to promote patriotism (which is bad enough in any country if you ask me; then again, I'm one cynical bastard anyway :laughing ) of something they no long belong to.
Fact is there is no reason for Scotland to have to be under our thumb constantly. If I were Scottish I'd see no reason to hold respect for a nation which tried and succeeded at capturing it. In effect having the union jack as its flag will promote or at least respect the ridiculous imperialist attitude the English had for a very long time; the fact that we have a bunch of countries in the commonwealth and the fact that we hold ridiculous amounts of offland territory such as the Falklands and Bermuda only furthers that.

That slipped into rant mode, plus my views got pretty damn harsh there, but it's my two cents.
Hmm, those are good points. Not saying that they should keep it as their flag though, Just thought that the Union Jack would look a bit rubbish without the white stripes behind the cross of Northern Ireland, so that's why I brought that into consideration.
 
One final thing- would Scotland remain part of the Commonwealth, though? That's something else I've wondered, considering nations like Canada, Australia, New Zealand, India and South Africa did after they left the British Empire.
I assume they probably are, considering they're due to host the Games in 2014, but I'm not 100% certain.

Bitch, we have achieved everything in the universe! We put a guy on the ****ing moon. Has your country put a guy on the moon? No? then stfu.

Hmm...so you have cured all forms of cancer, created universal, solved universal hunger, and made a guy reach the edge of the universe?
Who cares about that sh**? We put a guy on the moon.
Didn't rescue Woona when you were up there though, did you?   :rolleyes:

Naryar closed the Pony roleplay...


****, yeah.
now he should close/delete the pony thread and see how many people whine and bawww
Why would he do that, though? When I checked there just now, there was nothing there that justified it, like a flame war or something.

The only excuse needed to justify pretty much everything; 'for the lulz'
He will unlock it eventually, its in playground :L
That's a point. Give him time...

Might just be me, but I have my doubts that Scottish Independence will happen.

The Last "Meet the Team" Short
That title probably deserved an exclamation mark, but we over-estimated how many we had and now we're out. This year, the lovable, indecipherable Pyro finally gets some time in the spotlight. There will be blood. And not like in the movie There Will Be Blood, either, where there was only blood at the end, and not even very much of it. Ours has lots of blood pretty much all the way through. If the butterscotch mint-sucking old mummies who pick the Academy Awards thought Look Out, There Might Be a Little Blood was great, wait’ll they see how many gallons we managed to cram into our movie. They’re going to have to melt down Fort Knox to make all the Oscars we’re going to win.
Yes! Great to see that it's finally going to be released    :gawe:

What was wrong with it?
It doesn't expand upon the first Halo apparently but I don't know anything beyond that.
No Ice Beam or Morph Ball powers, either.
still had power bombs fool
No Screw Attack or Plasma Beams, though. Those were awesome.
MP2 had the Screw Attack and a Plasma beam pallet swap.
Indeed- oh, how I like game powerups...
