Article Predictions. Mostly General Discussion. But there's definately some Predictions scattered throughout.

By Drasnighta, in Star Wars: Armada

For once, I've been too busy to be checking... Stupid Thanksgiving Cleanups...

I should clarify.

They're not my cleanups.

I'm cleaning up after people who are cleaning up after Thanksgiving, because its a silly holiday that I struggle to get involved in, at all...

But for reals though no articles at all today?

Prayers have been answered by Arkham Horror: the Card Game

Well I just failed my sanity check...

What, Arkham Horror didn't do it for you?

THEN HAVE SOME MANSIONS OF MADNESS

Man we better up the idle speculation and do all we can to make this the longest thread in Armada history cause that'll totally make the network traffic spark on the server causing FFG to notice and remember they need to post a &*)^&%^&$%&^ article!

I feel better now.

Not really.

Because... We hit the point of "longest thread in Armada History" last week.

Next time we do this, and let's be honest there will always be a next time where FFG doesn't talk to us, the thread title needs to be something more accusatory.

"Article predictions" sounds too... hopefull? Optimistic? Unantagonistic?

I suggest "ARMADA IS DEAD" or, in the alternative, "WHYYY", or maybe even, "THAT'S IT WE'RE DONE".

Not any of those specifically, but something like that.

THEN HAVE SOME MANSIONS OF MADNESS

~~starts drawing eldritch signs on the walls~~

Have you see the yellow sign?

So why do I think the Flesh Destroyer now has a tentacled foredeck?

Perhaps the next article could be "Worlds End RPG - The Racghoul and you."

To pose the 'what's in the afterlife?' question:

What happens to this thread when (if) they do post an article?

  • Will this thread go away?
  • Will it simply explode into postings of ecstasy?
  • Or will it reconfigure into a thread awaiting an even longer period of article delay?

It will explode into posting of ecstasy, but get lost amongst the twenty new threads all from different people who feel like THEIR specific insights on the release somehow merit their own threads. Most of them won't. This is the nature of gamer forums.

We'll get our articles one day, and this thread will drift off into hibernation. Then eventually Wave 6 will be announced and this thread will come back as we make the endless wait for those articles.

"Do you have any last words?"

"Hastur. Hastur. Hastur."

Chtulhu F'htagn!

Let's make a pact guys. We don't make a new thread when we begin whining about the lack of wave six news.

I'm sure I'll die before this thread does...

... I have enough drivel to keep it going on my own, in any case.

Posting after you're dead? That would take necroposting to a whole new level.

EVERYONE in this thread could make that pact in absolute good faith, and there would still be W-6-whine threads.

Such are the ways of the internet.

Speaking of unspeakable horrors...

I started reading the Laundry Files (The Atrocity Archives is book 1). Quite enjoyable. A mix of Lovecraft, Bond, and IT/programming.

If you grow tired of not having an Armada article to read, you might want to give it a chance.

You better believe it... The hardest part is managing all the scripts so they don't go off prematurely...

I predict a wave vi announcement before a wave v article.

Oh, I was imagining something a little more occult, but I guess that'll work.

In fact, how do I know that you're actually alive, still? You might have been clever enough to anticipate this line of questioning.

You have no idea how satisfying it is to turn around to someone you severely dislike and be able to say, truthfully..... "Shut Up... Just Shut up, or I'll Haunt You." and know, for all intents and purposes, you have a plan in place to do just that.

Other than that, I did do a bit of study into Haitian Zombie production and all in the past, as well as actually owning a leatherbound copy of the Daemonolatria...

So, Occult I can do, too...

People are safe by virtue of the fact that I can't get easy access to tetrodotoxin in this countrry :D
