Forum-Risk. Or Forum-Catan. Or Forum-type-out-the-entirety-of-some-really-long-public-domain-book. :P

This is my 1001st post! I am now Ruler of a Derelict Airport! I shall accept your undying adulation, little scouts and rangers down there.

Pah, rulers can't survive without scouts and rangers, anyway, whereas scouts and rangers can survive without other scouts and rangers. *is neither a scout or a ranger*

That would be six rangers, as the current ones are yourself, ThisCat, and our Thormentor, though. :P

(Artificially bloating my post count? Perish the thought!)
Go ahead and bloat that post count.  You can be the black ranger!
Also, just a thought, is it possible to program the different boards of the site fuse together into a megazord?

Oh my gosh. I watched all of it and cried laughing X'D I still can't stop laughing....Nimphy in that costume.....with those lines...

"Aaah!  After 1000 posts, I'm freeee!  Time to conquer the forum!"
And, yeah it's 500 posts.

Catan/Risk/any of those games would take far too long over the internet...
Oh gosh, members would die mid-game of old age.
Feel free to PM.

She'd be all squeaky and too cute, giving us a false sense of security and then WHAM. HORRIBLE DEMISES LEFT RIGHT AND CENTRE. That's our Nimphy :P

That's why I suggested chess if anyone had their own board, people used to play it by letter and telegram and over the phone, so a forum wouldn't be too slow. The down side is that it would be mostly dominated by the two players for a looooong time, unless there were multiple games with multiple players going on....hmmm
The PBPost thread handles that okayish...

I counted you as the equivalent of 0.5 power ranger I'm joking don't hit me

Gee, I'd sure like to, but I shouldn't even be on the forum at this point. Y'know, exam tomorrow and all. I wonder if there are internet lobbies where one can play games like Risk and Clue and so forth.

I refuse to answer that question on grounds of that threatening to reset my post count to a stone cold zero. :P

I also refuse to mention that wiki pages can be re-re-re-...-edited without all of their history showing up (unless you want to look at it) on grounds of the owner possibly considering that a particularly nasty trick to get back at her, and trying to exact revenge on me for suggesting it.

Thanks for making me laugh so hard I literally cried. I just wanted to go to bed, but giggling like this I won't be able to sleep for some time. Now I really want to watch an episode of this seemingly awesome series and imagine you all in the leading roles. :D

Shoot, and in every other respect you'd be perfect as The Chessmaster...

Hmm, if we go according to my current posting rate, average it to around 200 posts per 3 months (give or take a few, this is by no means 100% accurate), then I'll be ruler of a derelict airport in... 12 more months.

Well. I suppose that's something to look forward to, heh.

I'd be up for a game of chess! Just, not now. I don't have exams as such, but I've got several end of semester school projects that are due next week and I'm sort of panicking but without really panicking. That feeling. I'm dealing with it by repeatedly listening to Cowboy Bebop's soundtrack while doing said projects, and watching anime in my free time. So far finished Bebop, Bebop's movie, Samurai Champloo, and partway through Trigun. Serious panic mode right there. (I deal with things weirdly.)

And aaaaah that Power Ranger's intro *wipes away laughter tears* The 90's was a weird era, mmm. Heheh. *bursts into laughter while imagining various forum members in leading roles*

I suppose I could muster the Guy Stuffed In Plastic Armor And Blinded By Full Frontal Helmet kung fu and beat up a couple sleepwalk-o-flunkies, but good Lord, that venue's so not my generation ... :-X

Ah, stop! I can't anymore, I just can't! My family is sleeping and I don't want to wake the entire house up with a laugh attack!
Also, I've seen the Nimphy thing coming, but the only thing that interested me was the title, and I decided I had the patience for a few more posts.
And, since I've been appointed Record Scout, maybe I'll be Record Ranger, too?
Someone stop me before my imagination runs wild...
