He actually likes them! Persephone: Weak as water, beloved. But such nice people. We should have them over some time. Berli(glowering): Should we? Persephone: Of course, Sweetness. Berli: But the Gnome will sing! And Peng will drink up all the liquor! Persephone: Of course they will, Love. It's what they do. But Seanachai will bring extra liquor for Peng, and Peng will tackle Seanachai when he begins that song about 'Maidens Bereft'. It'll be fine. Berli: Well, if you're sure.

Panzer Leader Posted January 13, 2002 Share Posted January 13, 2002 These are strange times, strange times indeed: Berli focuses his wrath on Seanachai; Peng off in a besodden stupour somewhere (wait that's normal) the justicariate resigning in a huff because no one would play planes with him. Slapdraggin' unceremoniusly thrown the sash of kaniggettness... freaks and weirdos showing up outta the blue (wait -- normal) and now, NOW Seanachai, obviously peeved at my bumbling victory (notice how he didn't even mention it, sore loser I tell ya -- a real surprise, that)now, Seanachai decides (wink wink nudge nudge) that some random regulation ((scoff)) was put upon my Knighthood!?!?! (was that really one sentence? Wow, time for another slippery nipple) I could really use the Justicariate's infallible knowledge of Peng Law right now. Ah well, a slight inconvenience for a world of freedom. I will wait until Lorak (If he can be torn from Deadly Dozen or whatever twitch-fest he's involved in) Lorak who bestowed my laurels upon me, makes his judgement. As it stands, Seanachai that is two slights tonight spat from your bee-stung lips towards me. I claim Casus Belli against you, you sodden pasta slurper (no idea). I will see you on the field of battle, where once again I can coerce the AI (my only ally) to make all your bullets miss, while my hastily targeting warriors will throw smoke and fire, FIRE, down upon your head. Check your inbox, mate. Dee my ignoble SQUIRE hang in there and find a rock or something to hide under for a bit, these curmudgeons, though they may stumble and brood, may be easily tamed.

Seanachai Posted January 13, 2002 Author Share Posted January 13, 2002 <blockquote>quote:</font><hr>Originally posted by Joe Shaw: The old ways are, it appears, gone for good. Why the time was when an SSN would leap at the chance to be made squire to ANY Knight of the CessPool, let along to the First Among the Seniour Knights. The time was when the Olde Ones could be counted upon for their sage counsel and wise advice, when they could be counted upon to uphold the right regardless of personal gain or ego. The time was when the CessPool MEANT something. But now we have SSNs setting conditions for matches with Seniour Knights, we have SSNs trampling upon the office of the Justicariate and we have Olde Ones, who should be upholding the honor and tradition of the CessPool, instead flaunting it and twisting those same traditions to their own dishonorable ends. Some might say that it's due to the Justicar being an overbearing, pompous and self-absorbed, self-appointed guardian of the CessPool. In that they are entitled to their opinion of course, but self-appointed I was not. I was appointed by the Olde Ones to safeguard and protect the traditions of the CessPool and I have done that to the best of my ability. Stixx, if you want a game you may have it upon the conditions I set forth, if not you may attempt to find another here who will accomodate you. D, you are hereby released from the honorable office of Squire to myself, best of luck lad. OGSF, if upon the vote of the Olde Ones you are confirmed as Justicar of the Peng Challenge Thread ... good luck, you'll need it. And to the rest of you ... as the days of my life grow shorter, as the dusk gathers about me and the wind whispers through the pines outside my window I'll hear, as if from far off, the rattle of the keyboards, I'll see the posts and emails of long departed, though not forgotten friends and the glow of my monitor will illuminate a face grown old in the service of the CessPool. And, eventually, the glow from the monitor will simply fade away. And so, like that monitor, I too now simply ... fade away ... an old Justicar who tried to do his duty as Gawd gave him the light to see that duty ... Goodbye. Joe<hr></blockquote> Shaw goddamnit, isn't that a rough re-working of MacArthur's 'farewell speech'? Don't do that, I never liked that pillock. He used to cheat at cards, did you know that? Now, what have we here? Yet another attack on the Justicar of the Peng Challenge Thread. Perhaps we should characterize that as the continuing attack. Now, for all those not of the Cesspool, your attacks are noted, and we will step around them like the rain-wet dog ****e they are. Joe Shaw, Old Foul Joe, is indeed the Justicar of the Thread, and it was nothing the poor, sorry bastard chose, it chose him. Or rather, we chose him; we, the Olde Ones. Oh, I know, Joe, that Berli has been tasking you of late, but remember, this is an Anarchic Being of Chaos and Arrogance who contested the rule of creation with the Creator. In most cases, it's not like he's going to jump on board and 'do the right thing', now is it? In any case, I see that we, the Olde Ones, have left Shaw hanging out there to dry as a 'target of opportunity' for folk that couldn't find their arse with both hands if it was on fire, and the Society For Annoying Daft Arseholes was on scene to send in retrained halfwits to help guide their hands to their bums. The position of Justicar, quite frankly, was never intended as one dedicated to ferreting out human stupidity. Frankly, there's seldom any need to ferret out the stupidity of SSNs here; it's so bloody up front that even Bauhaus merely waves a vague hand at it and goes on telling his beads. No, the position of Justicar is that of Judgement. It has long been clear that here in the Peng Challenge Thread, the Absolute Correctness of the Olde Ones had to be met with a Counsel of the Ruled, which provided a forum for what are popularly called: the Little People. And so we, the Olde Ones, gave the nod to a 'Counsel of Six', to counter-balance the Triumvirate of Olde Ones. They were/are the Lorak, Herald of the Cesspool. The Consigliori, or 'Whore' of the Peng Challenge Thread (this position is currently occupied by Lawyer), the Justicar of the Peng Challenge Thread, our own Old Foul Joe. The title of Official Grog of the Peng Challenge Thread currently occupied, however poorly, by Simon Fox, the title of Eldest Australian, gamily fulfilled by Goanna, and the 'Official Lawyer' of the Peng Challenge Thread, filled by the largely absent, but occassionaly attentive JD Morse.

You were given a game, and a game far beyond your station! It's not up to you to set conditions, unless, like the average two year old, you're doing it to test your boundaries. I've no true opposition to you, Stix, but you seem to have a chip on your shoulder over the Chosen of the Peng Challenge Thread. Play the goddamn game, and wear the outcome, Lost or Won, like a man. Do you really think that the Peng Challenge Thread is a forum to sort out your issues with your father, or your own insecurities, or do you understand that we are here to play The Game, and, like honourable warriours, confront each other in combat? You've been given a game by a Man that I name 'An Honorouble Opponent'. Are you so lost to the reality of the 'Peng Challenge Thread' that you want to fight him over how his existence differs from yours? Stixx, you've been offered an Honourable Challenge, and, in my personal opinion, a better one than your behaviour has deserved. Accept, or depart. The choice is yours. But don't go making conditions and demanding concessions like a bloody used car salesman. Shaw is a Seniour Knight of the Peng Challenge Thread, and has given me several games of note. Play, or piss off. He's a damn good opponent, and shouldn't be subjected to pissant 'bets' by those of 'No Reputation Worth Noting'.

The ignoble Noba has cast such a weak challenge at your feet that I am shocked at your easy acceptance. Even so your tolerant acceptance is somehow understood since the door was left hanging wide open. Once there was a disturbance in The Force. George Lucas then sold his soul to the highest bidders and lost all true vision of the archetypal hero. Joseph Campbell must be spinning in his grave. Now there are ripples in The Pool. Will we all stand by to watch the paragon of Combat Mission challenge forums suffer a similar fate? This warrior will not allow that to happen! From the depths of my soul I offer thee a challenge, Berlichtingen. Your gauntlet has been tossed and, picking it up, I thrust it into your face. *SQUISH* What are the terms? You set them, Jester of Darkness. I have two reasons to fight you: Joe Shaw is being drained of color and MrPeng has not the support of an Olde One. The choice is difficult, yet clear. Should I win our contest you will give your full support to the reinstatement of MrPeng’s proper name. chrisl’s puny victory will not stand a chance against a unified front. If you best me in battle (as if that were even possible), I will smash Noba for you, and grant a wish. In other news, as Leeo has already stated, I have wiped a map with his forces.
