1  The Ur-Quan Masters Re-Release / General UQM Discussion / Havoc & the Christmas Spirit on: December 26, 2003, 06:18:01 pm
Now, that headline sounds like some cheesy Disneay-movie gone bad!

I really hope that all of you've had a nice, quiet and peaceful Christmas ('cause I sure did!) and Santa was nice enough to stop by and give you some presents...

LP, what are you in the mood for? Dissing people, arguing for a lost cause, maybe talk some politics or what not?

I'm open for almost anything - as long as it is fun...

Best Greetings & Frohe Weihnachten!

Try this:

You know that google.com is a pretty good search routine.

Try entering the following sentence:

miserable failure

and do a random search. What pops up? (Even if you search the net normally, the first site shown is quite a surprise!)

Funny how it goes... I stopped posting when topics like this were fiercely debated - now I'm back and we're talking politics again  Grin

Can't say that I don't like it. Otherwise, I'm just glad to be back!

Greetings to all fellow Earthlings (yes, yes: and the Alliance Members...)

[P.S.: My Lord, Osgiliath is overrun!]

Greetings to all!

I really can't believe how long it's been since I've posted here...

I have to admit, though, that I'm glad to be "home" - despite the long time I've spent on some stupid science-mission... (Or, that's what I'd like to call it  Grin)

Good to see that there are still the same "old faces" around, although many of them seem alightened by now!

Nevertheless, I'm glad I found my way home - except for one thing which bothers me: Could anyone please turn off the shimmering red light I can see when I look out the window? That ain't how it used to be...  Cheesy

Hey LP, you can't really blame that one on me - read through your last three posts: That's where I got the information for that one... ;-)

As for the East German Female Swim Team - I always thought that this information was "TOP SECRET"!

To be honest, this semester really started very well: I didn't sign any lists to participate in the classes - I just showed up and except for one class (out of six) I may, can & will participate!

As for my nick - I got it when I joined my highschool's soccer-team and they expected me to be a soccer-pro since I'm from Germany. Boy, were they mistaken! But it did scare some players from the other schools since they only heard that I'm from Germany and I always talked to my opponents in German, usually insulting them without anyone getting it, hehehe... The pic is from some Iron Maiden fan-page! (Yes, I listen to Heavy Metal, yes, Maiden is my favorite band, I like their mascot Eddie, no, I'm not crazy, although, mmh, let's not touch that topic...)

As for "Eddie" - that's another nick for, uh, well, mmh. Let's just say that I got it from my American (ex-)girlfriend who meant, uh, well, mmh, not the whole me...
[can't believe I just wrote that!]

Omni-Sama - I was always wondering about where you got the name from - good to know!

Well, I better get going and catch a couple of hours of dream-time. Tomorrow is another day, the ship is ready, the landers are waiting, the crew is eager and there's a lot of planets that need some serious C2H5OH-mining!

I'll meet you on the starbase. Please don't forget the limes, the cane-sugar and the ice - you're all invited!

This has been quality Lukipela humor. In the case that you have not enjoyed it, rest assured that there is something badly wrong with you, and you are in need of immediate treatment.


No need for any kind of treatment here: Reading it has been a treat though!
Man, this is great!

I do remember your "Super-Heated Magnetic Liquification System"TM - that was another really good thread we kinda took hold of, huh?

As for you, KP, I'm really glad you're around! I'd go ahead and share my 2 million pounds gladly with you!

[Editor's note: KP, short for Kohr-Ah_Primat, pronounced like the short form of the drink "Caipirinha" - Caipi - consisting of 1 kiloton of limes, three huge mountains of white cane sugar, 5 kilotons of Cachaca and a polar ice-cap of an untouched class-M planet]

You wouldn't believe how light-headed I was travelling yesterday... Way out there (and it wasn't all booze that did the trick - I even would've gone 1 on 1 in the ring with an Ur-Quan fighting the ZFP's Galactic Gladiators, my Syreen being my coach and don't forget about the Thraddash guarding the ring...

LP, you must've encountered the Ur-Quan fans heading for the tournament - no wonder they didn't make it there until round four!

P.S.: My appointment with the "Umgah Clinic for Bionic Liver Implants for Humans" comes up next week ;-)

Here we go!
May I present:

Gruff Cold Loki Pela - The Norse God of Mischief, brother to the head-honcho and he's nasty and likes the wintertime...

(Man! 2nd day of the semester, 1st day of classes - I just returned home, brews, buzz and all included - "Flying high again"Ozzy

*stares oddly at GN* What are YOU thinking of...


I never meant anything like that - it just sounded wrong somehow and I was picking on you - sorry!

I dunno. I just mis-shortened it in my head somehow. Byt the time someone else actually called him GN, I'd been using it for so long that it'd just sort of stuck... But we all have our different nicks with ifferent people, don't we? GM calls me LP, you call me Luki, I call you Primat, Omni calls you K-P... It is just one of those things.

EDIT: Oh, and I'm sure female shofixti would make good ninjas. they might be more discrete than the male...


Yup, that's it! LP (that's what I call him!) has called me GM in an answer- ever since, that's what I almost expect from him ;-)

GNM is fine too (like Nightmare or Nitemare - all depending how much digits I can fill...)

It's an old nick-name I got when I graduated in the United States...

I think I meant to say that all shofixti women may be female, but they probably don't act like the ladies we have in our society.  Imagine macho, furry warrior princesses like Xena, but on creatine.


Ooh! That's nasty! A furry Xena? Bah! Even I as a Germanian must deny - sorry!

Maybe you meant, maybe some of the Shofixti maidens are just little girl Shofixti?


Ooh! What are you thinking of! That's illegal! No parole...

Mmmh, Mmmmmmmmmhn - Slurp, slurp! I like chocolate!
13  The Ur-Quan Masters Re-Release / General UQM Discussion / Re: Strange substances on: April 23, 2003, 12:43:34 pm
Yummy!

The sound the lander makes when taking those in supports that feeling, too!
14  The Ur-Quan Masters Re-Release / General UQM Discussion / Re: So what exactly ARE these resources? on: April 23, 2003, 04:14:22 am
You know, when I first played the game back in the days, the very first time my lander touched down on a planet I was eating some M&Ms - Déjà-Vu!

The resources are nothing but chocolate-filled treats for the crew and especially for the base-commander!
15  The Ur-Quan Masters Re-Release / General UQM Discussion / Re: Right now I feel like an UTWIG... on: April 22, 2003, 05:47:23 pm
Well, since that only works twice...

Right now I feel like a human - so much to do, so little time. Few who are willing to help me and so many who are working against me and my efforts.

(Yup folks, the new semester has started and it's CHAOS!)
