Seanachai Posted November 7, 2003 Share Posted November 7, 2003 Originally posted by MrSpkr: In your world, that means she steps out of the shower to urinate, right? Steve Ahem. Gentlemen, have we all forgotten the lessons of many months ago, when people were busy being humourously abusive about family members, but the one lad's mother happened to be dying of cancer? And that the jokes weren't going over so well? As I've said before, it's enough of a burden for your poor, long-suffering families to have produced you in the first place, without being dragged in here to be further mocked. Let's focus on the deficiencies of the people who actually post here. That should be enough to keep any of you busy enough without splashing the Cess onto those who are innocent, and, in the cases of your families, already victims enough.

Seanachai Posted November 7, 2003 Share Posted November 7, 2003 But enough of all this. We must turn our attentions to things of importance. Cue theme song: Have Laptop, Will Travel Reads the card of a man, A lone mortgage banker In a savage land. His teaching's for hire, And he travels far. A lone mortgage banker Is the man called Justicar. Justicar, Justicar, Where do you roam? Justicar, Justicar, Far, far from home. Joe, there are a number of things that need our immediate attention. First, without going into who supported him, or the legality of it all, or any number of other equally interesting issues, it's clear that we're going to have to depose Meeks. Can't proclaim a new Queen without disposing of the old King, unless the latter is taking the former as his, and that doesn't even bear thinking about. I'm thinking that a peasant revolt, with the aristocracy piling on when they see which way the wind is blowing, is classic, with the only question being whether he is simply driven from his throne and into exile, or whether the mob pulls him down, with equally classic beheading, dismembering, and pieces of the body paraded around the kingdom for all to see, with crowds cheering lustily over each drippy bit. Or should we go for a more solemn, spiritual and even more venerable tradition, pursuing the course of the ancient Celts, and state that King Meeks has failed to make the kingdom prosper, and sacrifice him on the altars of the Church of Seanachai to propitiate the gods (well, me, in any case), and then raise up the new Queen who shall lead us all into a glorious new future? Or should we just send him a 'Dear King John' letter? Lacks flair, but there is a certain cad-ish element to it. After having dispensed with out King, we will then need to actually crown our Queen. She has, of course, been proclaimed by the Olde Ones, acknowledged by the Justicar, and huzzahed by the hoipolloi. Such public acclaim for any being has not previously been seen, echoing throughout the corridors of Schloss Peng, and reaching even into the Wasteland where three ancient, eldritch figures sit hunched around a fire, swapping a bottle. But there has been no formal investiture, no coronation, no solemn ceremony fraught with reverence and stately dignity. No shindig. We will need to address that forthwith. Fair Queen Emma, please take a moment to consider what you'd like to do for your first acts as Queen. Amnesties and setting free the unjustly imprisoned is usually a crowd pleaser, although it's slightly edged out by mass executions of enemies of the state for sheer volume of cheering and clapping. No reason you can't have both, for that matter. Consider putting together some lists. Joe you're a busy man, I appreciate that, but we simply have to give some thought to these matters. First things first, then: How shall we rid ourselves of the King? I suppose we could always go for laughs, and have a high Church official shout out within the hearing of several clergymen 'oh who will rid me of this troublesome king', and then sit back and admire the satire as they ride to the capital and kill him in the middle of his palace...

Lurkur Posted November 7, 2003 Share Posted November 7, 2003 Originally posted by Seanachai: First things first, then: How shall we rid ourselves of the King? I think the answer has to be a peasant revolt. A casual glance about the place reveals that most denizens here are little better than peasants, and as for revolting...can you think of a more revolting collection of miscreants than this august body of ne'er-do-wells? Besides, it's been a while since we've had a jolly good torchlight event. I'm sure it gives all right-minded folk a sense of unsurpassed joy to think of Meeks fleeing mindlessly through darkened corridors while a howling, murderous mob chases him through the palace, only to be cornered in the courtyard, where a hush falls on the crowd as they face their tormentor. But only for a moment, and as Meeks drops to his knees whimpering the mob closes in and rends him to bits with their bare hands. See I bet just reading this has made you feel better!
