Though after 100 posts, it becomes a lot more incremental. 500 to obtain the highest position, and only Lukipela and Death999 have managed that as of yet. (Though yes, I am pretty close.)

Don't worry, I already consider you pretty thoroughly enlightened -- there will be no additional tests to pass Wink

Well, as the senior enlightened, I'm afraid there will be additional tests to pass. Hand to eye coordination, muscular flexibility, adaptiblity to new situations, proper usage of the preposition "the" in a sentence, all sorts of things.

Also, you will be required to make a lot of smileys in your 500th post, dedicate it to me, and say something nice about the other enlightened. Wink

However, if you are referring to a better position in the game young man, then I'd recommend ardent work, keeping your back straight and not letting those alien scum boss you around too much.

I feel you should never overestamate the use of pillows. That always helps me, no matter what position.

Doh. I forgot about pillows. Combinwe them with a lawn chair in the sun and you've got the ultimate position.

And Deep_Jiffa, unless I am mistaken (and I may well be as I never checked it out), Timewarp already lets you play melee over internet. Check it out.

In that case me young chickadee, it would appear that netowrk/internet melee is beyond your grasp. It is doubtful it'll be added to this project, even after the 1.0 release, and even if it is, that's still a bit off.

Ahhhh, K-P...  you and I had a pretty good sparring match of posts before I decided to up and leave!  Look at you now, you're all grown up.  Cry  I promised myself I wouldn't cry...  Cry

*Ahem*  Lukipela, I think guesst was talking about a different type of position.  Like the kind of position Talana uses on the captain.  Don't underestimate the tactical advantage of having a pillow.  It can mean all the difference...

Really? Hmm, I need to go do some ... in-depth research on that one. But the knife is still optional, right?

Deep_Jiffa, this is what happens to almost any topic here once the original questions been answered. It's a way for us to bond, learn to know eachother, and feel more like a big happy family. It teaches us respect for our fellow forumgoers, and makes the world a little bit brighter and happier. And we all want the world to be brighter and happier, don't we?

Well, no that's not necessarily the type of position I was talking about. Although that particular interpertation was in the back of my mind when I wrote it. And yes, pillows can sometimes be manditory to a sucksussful... nevermind.

Sorry. I guess I just can't drop the pillow thing. Now, I might throw a few...

Pillow fight?

... umm... I just had the bizarre image of a Kohr-Ah pillow fight. This is scary. OK, for the duration of this pillow fight I'm my OOC self (human).
