Actually, I got it from wikiquote...

And since I'm at it, I might as well thank everyone who took part in this sorry mess, in order of appearance: Catarin, Tzekelkan, Invid (For unflinching loyalty and lucidian-ness), Revan, Aiakon, and most of all Terentia who got a whole lot of grief from me, thanks for not shrubbing. wink.gif


Ahem. Tzekelkan is still loyal to the Walkers' beliefs. Or to what he feels they are, not to what Verithrax' brought them to be.

And thanks, it's been fun and it still will be. happy.gif

Pratchett does write a lot of dog latin... But anyway, offtopic.gif

Thing is, Verithrax defines and embodies the Walkers' beliefs and I've been pushing the organization into a darker, shadier side for a long time now... Idealists tend to get ran over when the people in charge decide they need to get their hands dirty, and for that, I apologize.

Anyway, nerf statues.

I thought we called it pig latin, not dog latin.
Verithrax2006-04-28 20:06:28
Pig Latin is a made-up language which involves letter transposition and can be actually spoken.

Dog Latin is just corrupted, apocryphal, or wrong latin.

And...

"I speak Pig Latin very well, even I do say so myself!" (You seem to be missing a word, and the second I is lowercase!)

STOP!

Sigger time!

Anyways... I've always pictured Verithrax as a shady Clohtes seller/Politically-hungry monster. He likes money and he tries to get power via politics. That's my view tho. ninja.gif

and on a side note. I don't use my Character's name in my User name because I am TEH CORZZOR and my characters are not me, for TEH CORZZOR Is!
Aiakon2006-04-28 21:12:40
... oh yes.

Argh, you ruined my credibility! >.< I kept coaxing the guild that you'd be fine and look what happens now! doh.gif

Back to square 1. But it was an interesting... mishap, even if I only got a taste of the end of it. happy.gif
Hazar2006-04-28 21:20:20
Welll, I seem to recall a thread along these lines right about when the DoC Inquisition started. It occurs to me not everyone's been around that long...but still. What Estarra said in that thread was; suck it up. I had spies in other divine orders and cities, etc., when I was Eris. I managed. Just don't put them in a clan.

That said, I do think it doesn't make sense for statues to target secret clans. Or even private ones. It really does destroy the possibility of an -organized- secret society.
Unknown2006-04-28 21:29:26
See, the thing is, you can be a member of an organization such as a clan without actually being IN the clan.

Then, statues can't hurt you.
Terentia2006-04-28 21:33:50
Verithrax,


I wanted to mention, I really enjoyed the bit of fun you stirred up. I hope Terentia made it just that more appeasing of a roleplay experience. Kudos, and good'on ya.

It was funny when Verithrax joined since every single fighter (ie: Geb, Acrune, Shamarah, Vesar) went: You LET HIM JOIN!?! ninja.gif

and nice events today wub.gif

Thats because we were the ones old enough to remember him in the guild before. And very interesting events indeed.

Okay. You just repeated what I said Estarra said. My response to that was, that's all nice and dandy. But what is the point of a secret clan if it is easily discovered by statues? Why call it SECRET if it's not SECRET? There's a fundamental issue here with how secrecy is achieved. Yes, you can have an organization without a clan. But it's awkward. And there should be some way other than extended isolation for secrets clans to stay that way.
Unknown2006-04-29 02:43:53
If they want to be so damn secret, they should have to work for it.
