Edit: Oh nevermind.

Notice how I disappeared during the last one

But I don't blame it, I haven't been spammed like that since, well... a long time. Need better highlighting triggers...

Also,


That's within the span of 10 minutes.

Casilu doing her usual silliness.


Lusternia skillsets can be kind of awesome.

At least you didn't quote some of those other parts.

Yeah, now you know how it feels like to be on the Gaudiguchian end of that. And that was only one person doing balestone.

I've had to deal with it several times, though only in the arena, facing first Wuylinfe a few months back, and Prav several times. And those three times it was one person. Every time I've been hit with it, I've taken about 1800+ damage, without anything boosting that damage.

Yeah, that skill alone eliminates all of our low-midbies who try to help out with webbing/hindering when defending against raids. While we're trying out methods to attempt to minimise the impact Balestone has, Balestone is one of the bigger factors that contribute to our horrible group combat, along with terrible leadership on our part, and a horrible layout on Vortex.

If you think it's bad one-on-one, try three raiders all just spamming that skill on everyone who shows up to defend. Goodbye, everyone not a demigod.

Thank goodness for my sane sleep schedule.

Awww.

So romantic.

(Order): Prav (from the Prime Material Plane) says, "If we ever need name another ship, I suggest:
The Phallicy of Faith."

(Order): You say, "We could just name it the Phallus of Faith and come right out with it."

(Order): Ileein (from the Prime Material Plane) says, "Good heavens."

(Order): Prav (from the Prime Material Plane) says, "We could, but then we lose the subtlety of
making fun of two of our enemies' core attributes."

(Order): Ileein (from the Prime Material Plane) says, "Are you suggesting that people turn to blind
faith in order to attain a surrogate father-figure?"

(Order): Prav (from the Prime Material Plane) says, "I am suggesting that all religion is a
glorification of the self, rather than a glorification of any supreme being."

(Order): You say, "I think Prav is saying that they are illogical dicks, Ileein."

(Order): Prav (from the Prime Material Plane) says, "That too."

(Order): Ileein (from the Prime Material Plane) says, "All succunct and accurate points."

(Order): Elostian says, "Nonsense, all religion is relishing in the existence of My Divine Form and
Shape."

(Order): Ileein (from the Prime Material Plane) says, "And what form and shape might that be,
m'lord?"

(Order): Elostian says, "A very lucid one."

(Order): You say, "A giant phallus, if I had to guess."

(Order): Elostian says, "I take it you weren't bluffing when you said you renamed the Order
Aethership the Phallus of Faith?"

(Order): You say, "It's back to Elostian's Gambit."

(Order): You say, "With the way I pilot, there would be a giant penis slamming into everything in
aetherspace."

(Order): Elostian says, "Well, there's nothing inherently wrong with the Phallus of Faith, they are
in general very handy organs, inherently necessary for the continuation of the species."

(Order): Elostian says, "I admit that I like the Phallacy of Faith even better though."

(Order): Nihmriel (from the Prime Material Plane) says, "We're trying to rehearse, which is
difficult when one is convulsed with laughter."

Best letter ever.

Did that conversation actually happen?

I was really asking for forgiveness. My left elbow is a douche. I am sorry she stood you up the other night. She is still in a committed relationship with my right knee.

It's Gandalf!

Horrifyingly, yes.

The forums have taught me two important lessons about surviving Hallifax. Avoid giving Casilu suggestions, and join Elostian's Order.

Dad, I am disappoint.

I knew your family was secretly the craziest one in Hallifax. I knew it.
