No Such Thing as 2nd Place



The world has ground to a halt. Technology is no longer advancing at the pace it was. The solar system has been probed and the governments of the world have reached a peaceful compromise. While the world is swiftly turning idyllic, the people want conflict. Thus, the Race was born.

Contenders from around the world, chosen specifically to represent their country due to their skills and talents, are converging on a single island. There the conditions have been set, the challenges laid and the cameras deployed.

Reach the end and take posession of the Goal. Simple enough. But there is a reason this is called the Race of the Dead. Nothing is sacred, and everything is on the line. So what would you do to win if there was no such thing as second place?





RULES

1) No god modding. Stick to your bio, no one is invincible. People will die.
2) Spelling and grammar. They help. Please use them.
3) Patience. People are not always online. Please wait for them.
4) Attacks. Leave them open ended. No end is predetermined, unless evasion is inhumanly possible (such as a point blank head shot). Additionally, people can be fast, but keep it within reason.
4.5) As a corollary, people will get hurt. Please have your character act human. I cannot tell you whether an attack will hit or not, but you can decide for yourself. This takes maturity, and I will thank you for it.
5) Past tense. This RP will read like a story, and thus you are to post in past tense. No exceptions.
6) Have fun. I created this RP cuz I wanted to do something for no particular reason. If you're going to fight, keep it to PMs please.




2nd Place: Contenders
2nd Place: On File
2nd Place: Isla de Muerta
2nd Place: Doomed to Repeat




Chapter 2: Ready, Set...


The game is set, my friends. The pieces are in place, the board is laid out. Now the fun part begins...


~~~~~


Sun shaded her eyes from the early morning sun, having chosen not to bring sunglasses with her to the Race. It was about 9 in the morning, according to her watch, and the Race was already well under way.

"Alright, here's how it will go." Jack had said the night before. "Sometime tonight all of you will be transported to the Isla. You all will be given a pack with some supplies and a map." He pointed to a larger map hanging on the wall. "You will also be starting in one of these towns here. Damien, you'll be in Naalehu." He pointed to the corresponding dot on the map. "Angelique, in Milolii. Aiden, Ookala. Jorn, Kailua-Kona. Junyo, you've got Keokea. Lucio, you're in Paaulio. Jacky, Kawaihae. Kyle, you're in Panaluu. Sun, you're starting in Honomu..." And on it went. Finally, all of the contenders had been assigned their positions and were sent off to get a 'good night's sleep.'

Some sleep Sun thought grumpily, turning to move farther in to the tropical forest covering the Isla. She had stayed up most of the night, meditating and making sure she had everything she needed. Now it was down to everyone against everyone else. Things were finally heating up.

Angelique remained quiet. She was in a tree right now, having barely scouted out the safe place some time before. She had been waiting, just waiting, making sure she could see every trip wire or hole she could in every direction for as far as she could. Finally deciding she knew them, she soundlessly left the tree and stared on her way, braiding her hair as she went, but her eyes keen for danger.

Snap! Jorn cursed in his head. The branches were too brittle. Searching for a new one, he finally got them to start a very small fire, surrounded by rocks to keep it in line, then left it, traveling through the trees. He had set at least three by now in the still slightly dim morning light, letting people guess where he was. Finally finding a stream, he crouched, watching the fish, thinking quickly of the best way to catch one.

Jacky walked along beside a path silently, taking in every detail, whether small or big. She kept a constant watch for traps and wires that would give her away. Her assault rifle out and ready to fire at will. Her trained eyes caught a gimpse of something through the bush and realized it was a fire. Her eyes narrowed as she turned and walked in the opposite direction, "Either someone is incredibly stupid or thinks we are stupid." she thought as she made her way through the bush and away from the fire and any other enemies.

Not too worried as to set up a fire quite this early into the day, Aiden set out to make a small, secretive shelter in which he could stay for a few days, gathering logs, vines, and large leafs that he could throw togeher a little hut with. as well, he would have to trap the woods directly around where he was going to put up camp, just to stay safer.

Lucio reclined on a mostly sound section of roof, basking in the sun. When they had dropped him off, he had scouted out the surrounding buildings, then chosen one that he could get on top of and still have a good vantage point. He half closed his eyes, like a cat, crossing his legs at the ankles as he listened to the pulsing silence around him.

Damien listened intently from his vantage point of the tree. His eyes were open, scanning around him. In tropical places trees were more dangerous than the ground. Most predators like snakes and monkeys would leave you alone if you walked along the ground, but up in the tree not only were you food but also a threat. Everyone seemed intent on being the last person standing by killing everyone else around them rather than working together and being the best. Damien hadn't expected such a selfish and stupid attitude but he was quickly adapting. He would not take anything for granted. Slowly and quietly he made his way down the tree. The brush was thick around him and the going was not smooth.

2007-03-15 [Artsy]: gah! again with the cuteness! *sigh* what do i have to do?...

2007-03-15 [Kai Crewger]: yays! *hugs* just send me a bio ^_^

2007-03-15 [Artsy]: ok.. i'll get to it...

2007-03-15 [Kai Crewger]: woot! *dances* you're awesome living

2007-03-15 [Artsy]: *rolls eyes* yeah yeah...

2007-03-15 [Kai Crewger]: o.o *pokes* s'everything ok?

2007-03-15 [Artsy]: yeah, just havin myself a cry ^^

2007-03-15 [Kai Crewger]: por que?

2007-03-15 [Artsy]: to make myself feel better, don't worry about it ^^

2007-03-15 [Kai Crewger]: ok... *pats on back*

2007-03-15 [Artsy]: k, i done now ^^

2007-03-16 [Panda-monium]: this should be a good rp.

2007-03-16 [Artsy]: i'm worried about the amount of actual rp tho.. i mean.. we cant really.. interact... seeing as we're all against everyone else

2007-03-16 [Panda-monium]: That's silly. It'll be played like any other game. No game ever starts out every man for himself, not usually. People pair up, strength in numbers. Because the people who travel in groups will have a better chance of getting to the end. So you team up to defeat the obstacles, then as the game goes on and the other groups die out, then your group are the last and have to start going against them selves to be the last ones, so that group will split into smaller groups and so on.

2007-03-16 [Artsy]: i suppose so...

2007-03-16 [Panda-monium]: Sure, besides rp's are like anything else. The rules of the game are set, the characters are placed into it, and if you stay true to the character you created not even you know what's going to happen. I wouldn't worry too much about it not playing out. I think it will be just fine. It'll just be a lot more tension than other rp's. But that should make it interesting.

2007-03-16 [Artsy]: guess so...

2007-03-16 [Panda-monium]: *smiles and tips hat* Names Panda, by the way, and who might you be?

2007-03-16 [Artsy]: Living, or Armor, depending on what you think of me as *bows* a pleasure to make your aquaintance

2007-03-16 [Panda-monium]: Aye, 'tis. Armor, I think is a more suitable name. Living is more of a verb than a noun I should think.

2007-03-16 [Artsy]: Your choice. ^^

2007-03-16 [Panda-monium]: How kind. *bows lightly* I hope we get a few people joining.

2007-03-16 [Artsy]: Me too. ^^ Zodiac Wars needs members too...

2007-03-16 [Panda-monium]: Zodiac Wars? Mever heard of it.

2007-03-16 [Artsy]: Zodiac Wars

2007-03-16 [Panda-monium]: hmmmm, it looks interesting. Kinda different at least.

2007-03-16 [Kai Crewger]: tis. it shall be good. we're still signing up members, and hopefully zodiac will be up and running at the end of the week

2007-03-16 [Kai Crewger]: and don't worry about the interaction issue. there'll be plenty of that. otherwise this would be a pointless rp. and that's just terrible.

2007-03-16 [Artsy]: well.. ok, i trust you two

2007-03-16 [Panda-monium]: Should be good, my only worry is amount of people we'll get.

2007-03-16 [Kai Crewger]: such as too many or too few?

2007-03-16 [Panda-monium]: at the moment too few. But too many could be a problem to, eh?

2007-03-16 [Kai Crewger]: eh, true. I'll go scout on some other wikis

2007-03-16 [Panda-monium]: I put it up in my thinger, but I don't know of anyone looking to rp at the momento. All of my rp buddies are busy. ie: Half-life

2007-03-16 [Kai Crewger]: hah. isn't HL kinda inert at the moment tho?

2007-03-16 [Panda-monium]: Exactly my point :P They are busy.

2007-03-18 [Panda-monium]: Woot, can't wait.

2007-03-18 [Final_omega]: is this ment to remind me of Battle Royale? sounds good. may sign up soon.

2007-03-18 [nokaredes]: I'm reminded of The Long Walk by Shephen King...

2007-03-19 [Kai Crewger]: it's kind of battle royale, maybe a little of the Long Walk, but I tried to make it something different. Many thanks if you sign up *smiles and bows*

2007-03-19 [Faulty Limerence]: What's all dis then, eh? TELL ME KAI!

2007-03-19 [Kai Crewger]: IT'S A WIKI! YOU MUST JOIN! *pokes* but only if you'll post. and you should post on Ballad.

2007-03-19 [Faulty Limerence]: Yeah, I gotta post on Ballad. Well...explain this wiki in five words.

2007-03-19 [Kai Crewger]: People die for the Goal.

2007-03-19 [chuchutrain]: I.like.it! O.O may I join?

2007-03-19 [Panda-monium]: Hey chu!

2007-03-19 [chuchutrain]: Heya!

2007-03-19 [Panda-monium]: Make a char.

2007-03-19 [chuchutrain]: I will do that right away

2007-03-19 [Panda-monium]: sweet

2007-03-20 [*Night_Shade*]: Damn you Panda! It's calling my name!

2007-03-20 [Panda-monium]: *grins* I know.

2007-03-20 [Kai Crewger]: yay! joinness! just send me yer bios ^_^

2007-03-20 [chuchutrain]: sent ^_^ can't wait. *rocks in her chair in anticipation*

2007-03-20 [Faulty Limerence]: I am interested.

2007-03-20 [Kai Crewger]: if you're gonna join, you gotta post baka. otherwise we'll just kill you off

2007-03-20 [Lepellier]: and if we have to kill you off, there will be brutal floggings.

2007-03-20 [chuchutrain]: I like brutal floggings ^___^ ...well kinda...

2007-03-21 [Panda-monium]: How many people are we looking for to start?

2007-03-21 [Kai Crewger]: starting tomorrow maybe. I'll see if I can get the time to actually make a big move @.@

2007-03-21 [chuchutrain]: tomorrow. sounds fair....

2007-03-21 [Artsy]: is this where we rp?

2007-03-21 [Kai Crewger]: yeah. let me make an opening post and we can go to it

2007-03-21 [Panda-monium]: okie dokie

2007-03-21 [chuchutrain]: Alrighty...so do we always have to bold our characters name?

2007-03-21 [Panda-monium]: sorry it took so long, I got called by my mother in the middle of a post.

2007-03-21 [Kai Crewger]: yes. it would aid greatly, and I find that it can make rps like this a little bit smoother.

2007-03-21 [Final_omega]: wait... how are we going to get out of the hotel without killing each other instantly?

2007-03-21 [Panda-monium]: I assume there are some restraints. Besides you need each other in order to get through challenges killing each other now would be stupid.

2007-03-21 [Final_omega]: ahh i see. that makes sense.

2007-03-21 [Kai Crewger]: we don't kill each other. it's in the rules, and it's a matter of courtesy and honor. plus, it is basically understood that even an attempted assassination before the Race actually starts dooms you. Everyone would be after your hide, or at least most of the people.

2007-03-21 [Final_omega]: you know what i mean.
i can see that actually... Junyo running like hell with you guys following behind him because he killed the presenter. lol.

2007-03-21 [Artsy]: lol

2007-03-21 [Final_omega]: so. we going to land anytime soon, or just keep heading down?

2007-03-21 [Kai Crewger]: well, if chuchu wants to post I would wait, but if chuchu doesn't then we can set down. So what does chuchu want to do?

2007-03-21 [Panda-monium]: chuchu isn't on

2007-03-21 [Final_omega]: sorry. was being sad and found this, its actually really funky if you watch it all.
<http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RyIphO4Ypoo&NR>

2007-03-21 [Kai Crewger]: I would like to wait for everyone... but I guess we can at least set down first

2007-03-22 [chuchutrain]: sorry I would have posted earlier but I was at school and they kinda half websensed ET (we found a way in anyways)...and I had to get off cause class was over. But I posted now ^^

2007-03-22 [Artsy]: when in doubt, use https://www.codenamehippie.com !

2007-03-22 [chuchutrain]: when in doubt for what?

2007-03-22 [Artsy]: when you can't get on a site at school, like myspace or facebook, use codenamehippie

2007-03-22 [chuchutrain]: cool thanks

2007-03-22 [Panda-monium]: people should be on late like us. I'm almost afraid how far I will be behind tomorrow. I won't be home till 9 ish.

2007-03-22 [Artsy]: I'm more worried. I'll be on tomorrow throughout the day, but then I won't be on again until monday.

2007-03-22 [Panda-monium]: eep.

2007-03-22 [Artsy]: then i'll be gone the second full week of april and almost all of july (tho i think i'll have net there...)

2007-03-22 [Lepellier]: I'm going to be gone for a while too.

2007-03-22 [chuchutrain]: yikes... I'm going to be gone for most of the day...I might be able to get in a few hours...and for the week after I work in the evenings...

2007-03-22 [Kai Crewger]: yeah, I'll be cutting out for weeks at a time too o.o I guess we'll just have to post when we can :P

2007-03-22 [Panda-monium]: should we wait for everyone to have a getting off the plane moment?

2007-03-22 [Kai Crewger]: meh. you can post if you want, but I'm gonna check all my updates then post for Jack and switch to the hotel.

2007-03-22 [Panda-monium]: I don't need to post, I was just curious whether I should stay on for any reason tonight or not.

2007-03-22 [Artsy]: is it ok to talk a bit, or should i pause?

2007-03-22 [Kai Crewger]: I don't mind.

2007-03-22 [Artsy]: so many countries.. once these people die, we'll be able to make new charies of new countries...

2007-03-22 [Kai Crewger]: yep. which reminds me...

2007-03-22 [chuchutrain]: yay for killing! ^___^ and making new chars!

2007-03-22 [Artsy]: I want Germany next round. DIBS!!!

2007-03-22 [chuchutrain]: ....if we are allowed to call dibs, then I call Russia!

2007-03-22 [Kai Crewger]: ^_^ you can take em now. just be sure to send the bio to me first. and no more than three per person

2007-03-22 [Artsy]: Can do!! ^^

2007-03-22 [Artsy]: guess you'll need to change the thing our from country of origin then...

2007-03-22 [chuchutrain]: not too sure if I can create the character now...I tend to put everything into one char and neglect the other...so I'll wait ^^

2007-03-22 [Artsy]: i think getting a second would be for round two.... right? o.O

2007-03-22 [Kai Crewger]: nope. you can pretty much enter this round at any time. your character would have been along for everything so they wouldn't need to be caught up, and they could have just been a 'background character' up to that point

2007-03-22 [Artsy]: ah, well.. i'm working on mine.. trying to choose a gender right now...

2007-03-23 [Panda-monium]: sorry, sometimes I do that. Just splurp on the page.

2007-03-23 [Panda-monium]: can I say shit? o.o

2007-03-23 [Kai Crewger]: don't care. all I say is: if you don't do it in public, don't do it here.

2007-03-23 [Panda-monium]: Alright, I just didn't know any other way to say it, I'm not usually very profane. I apologize.

2007-03-23 [Panda-monium]: awe, he's so easily damaged. >.< Bred for destruction but has social anxieties I love it.

2007-03-23 [chuchutrain]: whoo hoo! pass for minor swears...lol ^^;;

2007-03-24 [Final_omega]: hay, am using my ps3 to type, so i may take some time to make my posts

2007-03-25 [chuchutrain]: coooool

2007-03-26 [Artsy]: wait, panda, who is? what? o.O

2007-03-26 [chuchutrain]: huh? um...I'll post later...

2007-03-26 [Panda-monium]: Damien, lol. He has social anxieties.

2007-03-26 [chuchutrain]: it's so great ^^

2007-03-27 [chuchutrain]: Man...I love the new character ^^...so...crazy. lol ^____^

2007-04-01 [Panda-monium]: Yeah Kyle should be fun.

2007-04-03 [*Night_Shade*]: I see bolded nammmmmmmmes! ><

2007-04-03 [*Night_Shade*]: Btw, I love "1) No god modding. Stick to your bio, no one is invincible. People will die." lmao

2007-04-03 [Kai Crewger]: hah. yeah. shows you what you get when I'm tired and writing rules :P

2007-04-03 [*Night_Shade*]: Lol, sounds good. ^^

2007-04-04 [chuchutrain]: I love rules that are blunt like that

2007-04-10 [Artsy]: thank you kai for that fix and for all the ones i know are to come

2007-04-10 [Kai Crewger]: no worries. happens all the time

2007-04-14 [Faulty Limerence]: b dnsa dsafjsdgfjlsgfjsdjfbnlskd OMG KAI! GET THE HELL BACK ON ELFTOWN AND POST ON BALLAD!

2007-04-14 [Kai Crewger]: wow. well, I'm back but you're not... we need to coordinate better.

2007-04-14 [Lepellier]: How about some posting around here? :)

2007-04-14 [Kai Crewger]: well, what's everyone doing???

2007-04-14 [Lepellier]: waiting.

2007-04-14 [Faulty Limerence]: Maybe I should join this Rp too, eh? Bring a bit of grammar and correct spelling into the mix?

2007-04-14 [Artsy]: *shrewd look* what's wrong with our grammer and spelling?

2007-04-14 [Faulty Limerence]: It does not live up to my standards.

2007-04-14 [Faulty Limerence]: For example! You did not capitalize your sentence.

2007-04-14 [Artsy]: Comments don't really count. Regardless, to correct you, 'For example!' is a sentence fragment. You should have wrote 'For example, you did not capitalize your sentence!'.

2007-04-14 [Faulty Limerence]: I don't believe in sentence fragments. Nor do I believe in synonyms. The concept behind "synonyms" is merely a product of human laziness.

And by the way, there is nothing that does not "count".

2007-04-14 [Artsy]: How can you correct grammar without believing in all of the rules?

2007-04-14 [Faulty Limerence]: *laughs* Who made the rules? And by the way, your sentence should have used "written" instead of "wrote".

2007-04-14 [Artsy]: Humans, but then again, aren't you human? Therefore, you too, must err. To err is human.

2007-04-14 [Faulty Limerence]: I err. But when I do, I make the effort to correct, and grow. And also, to be Human, is to err. Not the other way around.

2007-04-14 [Faulty Limerence]: Or, alternately, "To err, is to be Human."

2007-04-14 [Artsy]: But to 'correct' would be to conform to a rule that says what is correct. That's like saying 'fuck' is bad word. It is, only because people say it is. You're 'correcting' yourself to conform to something you obviously don't believe in... That's called being hypocritical isn't it?

2007-04-14 [Faulty Limerence]: Ah, no. I correct myself to conform to rules that I have adopted as acceptable. Not believing in synonyms is not abandoning a rule, but a concept. Same goes for "fractured sentences". Especially in script, the most important thing about the writing is that the correct tone get across to the readers. But you should always find a way to do so, and still follow punctuation, and correct spelling.

2007-04-14 [Artsy]: So by bringing 'a bit of grammar and correct spelling into the mix', you mean try to get us to conform to what you consider correct?

2007-04-14 [Faulty Limerence]: Well, maybe that was implied, but my sentence merely said that I would bring it in. Not change what is already here. The only things that I ever change on an Rp, from others posts, are spelling mistakes, and punctuation errors. All it does is clean it up a little bit. Either way, the true meaning of my original comment, was only to throw myself out there to some of the people here who may not know me, and to inform them a little of what my personality is like.

2007-04-14 [Artsy]: ...Do you go to church?

2007-04-14 [Faulty Limerence]: Hmm...nope. If I believed in any of the religions, I probably still wouldn't. I don't think that you have to attend something like that to have faith. Why do you ask?

2007-04-14 [Artsy]: Just curious.... You reminded me of alot of Christians I know...

2007-04-14 [Faulty Limerence]: *laughs* Oh, here come the Christian generalizations, which never really have anything to do with what's going on. Religions are made up of people. There are Buddhists that push their religion just as much as some Christians push theirs. It's called stereo-typing. Not a good thing, dear.

2007-04-14 [Artsy]: Don't you generalize by saying humans made the grammar rules? A few humans given power by a majority of humans made the rules. Surely there are ones out there like you, so.... But I wasn't stereo-typing. I said you remind me of alot of Cristians I know, which you do, which is why I asked if you went to church. If I stereo-typed, I would have said 'oh, you're another one of those bible thumpers'.

2007-04-14 [Faulty Limerence]: Um...actually it's a fact that Humans made the rules of grammar. It sure wasn't Elephants. Or maybe it was...huh...yeah...it definitely could have been Elephants.

2007-04-14 [Artsy]: You can't say that and be right. For example, I am human. I never made a rule of grammar in my life.

2007-04-14 [Faulty Limerence]: Clearly. But I did not say that all Humans made them. I merely said that Humans made them. I did not specify any kind of amount. Are you telling me that it was not Humans that specified the rules of grammar? I mean, I'm ready to believe it was Elephants.

2007-04-14 [Artsy]: My english teacher says their aren't really any specified rules for grammar... He says we can write dates as 'July 4, 1989' but my science teacher insists we write it as '4 July 1989'. He says that is the correct way. My english teacher says either is correct. So.. there aren't really any specified rules... Not for english anyway.

2007-04-14 [Faulty Limerence]: So says your English teacher. Good for him. There are specified rules. Some people choose to follow them, others don't. But the rules are there, none-the-less. Oh, and the method your science teacher is using is the method used in the military. Just thought I'd throw that out there.

2007-04-14 [Artsy]: So says you. Maybe you aren't right.

2007-04-15 [Faulty Limerence]: No. It's a fact. There are rules set up by a committee. They are rules. They are specified. Just because you don't follow them doesn't mean they don't exist.

2007-04-15 [Artsy]: Pff, reality is an illusion.

2007-04-15 [Faulty Limerence]: That's one of the most retarded things that I've ever heard. I'm all for existentialism and surrealism both, but hey, reality is reality. Get with the program, you know? Prove to me that reality is an illusion. Do you even know what that would infer? Have you even thought that statement through to it's entirety? Tell me why reality is an illusion.

And besides that, I never mentioned reality in the first place.

2007-04-15 [Artsy]: 'Reality' is that there are rules, but to me, there are not. It's like... oh, who said it? 'I think, therefore I am.' Realism is an illusion because 'reality' is simply what our brain makes of our surroundings. It doesn't really look like that in its truest form.

2007-04-15 [Faulty Limerence]: How do you know? Have you seen its truest form? Everything you're saying is based on speculation. Technically, through your views, what you're saying is an illusion.

2007-04-15 [Kai Crewger]: o.o wow. ok, I'm all for seeing where this goes, but I just wanna say this: Baka, if you're going to join, you have to update regularly. like, once every three days. and if you have time to update here, then update ballad too.

2007-04-15 [Artsy]: Perhaps it is. How do I know that you're seeing what I think I'm writing, and that your responses aren't just a manifest of my imagination and logic?

2007-04-15 [Faulty Limerence]: Exactly, Living. And since the only argument here that can be proven is mine about written English having specified rules, I suggest we drop this. Oh, and Kai, I was just harrassing you. Although I may join at some point. You'll never knooooOOoOoooOOw! *ghost noises*

2007-04-15 [Kai Crewger]: hah. just letting you know, if you joooiiinnnn you have to poooossstuh.

2007-04-15 [Artsy]: But what I'm saying Ash, is how do you convince me, a person who sees everything as an illusion, that something, in this case, the rules of grammar, exist at all? It's not really proving anything when the 'facts' don't exhist.

2007-04-15 [Faulty Limerence]: I don't. I tactfully realize that you have fucked up views, and leave the issue alone from now on. Reality is not an illusion. End of story here. I'm not continuing this.


And Kaaaaiiii you know how hard it is for me to post. but I AM getting a bit bored of WoW for now, and Command and Conquer 3 is really fucking hard, so =P I should be on more. But not before 5:30 on the weekdays.

2007-04-15 [Artsy]: Ok, makes sense you would give up the arguement when the views aren't exactly like yours, nor match a stereo-type. You suck at this game.

2007-04-15 [Kai Crewger]: XD alright. I can deal with that *is laughing at Baka*

2007-04-15 [Faulty Limerence]: *laughs* I didn't give up, hun. I dropped it There's a difference there. As Kai can tell you, I don't "give up" an argument that I can win. And as she can also tell you, I can win most all of them. I just don't find illusionism worth arguing about. It's a completely self-indulgent view that allows no progression. So I suggest you shut your pretty little mouth as far as talking about who "sucks".

2007-04-15 [Kai Crewger]: :P sad but true. as far as I've known him, he never gives up on an issue. he's very confrontational about pretty much anything

2007-04-15 [Artsy]: I just love how you talk to me, darlin. You gave up on this arguement because you can't win. You don't want to argue about illusionism because you don't know how. And as for it not being progressive? That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard. As if something such as... inventions ever did anything but make us lazier.

2007-04-15 [Faulty Limerence]: And I'm usually right. *grumbles* Stupid Mr. Skyles, thinking he knows more about physics than me. He's a fucking wrestling coach!

And Living, illusionism isn't progressive. It's regressive almost to the point of nihilism. I'm done. If you want to think, in your little head, that you've won, then fine.  Suits me just as well.

2007-04-15 [Kai Crewger]: *psst* baka. it usually helps to stop an argument if you don't start calling names.

2007-04-15 [Faulty Limerence]: I didn't call anyone names.

2007-04-15 [Artsy]: I don't think I've won. I said you gave up. You're really no fun at this game if you just give up...

2007-04-15 [Faulty Limerence]: And you're no fun at this game if you can't give me something worthwhile to prattle on about.

2007-04-15 [Artsy]: Oh, what? Because I don't rattle off facts that I've heard from other sources? Because I gave an opinion that involved thought? I'm sorry I did that to you. Want me to take a more logical approach to telling you're crazy?

2007-04-15 [Faulty Limerence]: *laughs* How do you know where my facts came from? How do you know how much thought was put into any of this. I've heard far too much of this illusionism bullshit, and I refuse to continue this any longer.

2007-04-15 [Kai Crewger]: then stop! talk about teachers that piss you off, talk about how prison food sucks, just switch topics!

2007-04-15 [Artsy]: I wasn't talking about your facts. I was saying because I didn't use 'facts' that you got all upset and quit the debate. You're really no fun. I mean.. Draygun and I had a really nice debate over how a dragon flies and breathes fire and boths' limitations, and yet.. you... you just quit.

2007-04-15 [Faulty Limerence]: Then you'd probably love me on any other day, as I rarely give up. But I just don't have the energy for this right now. Hey Kai, did I tell you that they have us working on Saturdays now? I only get one day to catch up on my sleep. :(

2007-04-15 [Artsy]: *gives blanket and warm milk* Nap?

2007-04-15 [Kai Crewger]: poor baka *pats on back* I guess that means sleeping in all sunday *wishes she could do that* I got stop class tomorrow too...

2007-04-15 [Faulty Limerence]: Well, let me give you an idea about my life in the past year. (by idea, of course I mean a detailed description, as I've never been able to shorten my stories or give overviews. =P Kai knows.) A few months ago, I started a job doing phone surveys. Real cushy. Four hours a night, from 5:00 pm to 9:00 Pm. I could sleep till fucking 3:00 in the afternoon, and could stay up as late as I wanted. In March, I was offered a full-time, ten dollar an hour job, with HUGE room for advancement, and over-time pay. Fucking amazing, right? Only catch, you get up at 5:00am. You are on your feet constantly until 5:30 pm. Needless to say, I get home and fall unconscious after a few hours. It's really tough. And now we work weekends too.  So tiiired...

2007-04-15 [Kai Crewger]: :P well, sucks to be you then, I guess. or not, since you're getting paid. I guess that just goes with the territory.

but I gotta go. I'll talk to y'all later. and it was nice getting to chat with ya, baka *hugs all around* night

2007-04-15 [Faulty Limerence]: Awww. It's Saturday. Why so early?

2007-04-15 [Kai Crewger]: cuz I had to get up early yesterday and I had to get up early today too. I'm gonna be a bear by monday...

2007-05-04 [Faulty Limerence]: Eeew now I have to work Sundays too. No days off! My body is killing me!

2007-05-04 [Kai Crewger]: *pat pat* there there. can't be too much longer, right?

2007-05-04 [Faulty Limerence]: Actually! I get my first weekend in a month off this weekend! AMAZING!

2007-05-04 [Kai Crewger]: hah. you gonna be sleeping most of the time?

2007-05-05 [Faulty Limerence]: Trying to, anyway.

2007-12-29 [Lepellier]: So...I'm guessing this has completely died? I was just circulating through my old wiki's and saw this...

2007-12-29 [Kai Crewger]: eh. it was a fairly good idea, but I guess it just didn't get pulled off.

2008-01-15 [Panda-monium]: I think it was one of those wiki's that needed a lot of creative intervention by the owner.

2008-01-15 [Faulty Limerence]: Actually, it needed a lot of intelligence (past normal human means) from every player to be anything like Ender's Game, and I think that's why it lost it's luster. Because, let's face it. None of us are as leet es Ender Wiggins or Bean.
