Ha ha. Death is not fun. Its endless boredom.

If death isn't fun why do 99% of games revolve around killing stuff?

Unfortunately, tounge-in-cheek suggestions aren't taken as such unless explicitly stated. For example, the orc date.

The orc date?

Read the story posts. Someone suggested asking an orc out on a date, we thought it was a joke so no one voted against, so it happened. We got raped.

I just read it... That's hilarious...

I rescind my earlier suggestion.

I just read back.
We can't say we are a spy of the emperor.

"In order to be called to greater service you'd probably have to prove yourself capable of it first. If you're thinking ahead of being some kind of super special secret operative in the Emperor's personal employ...well, again I'm not claiming any great knowledge of these things, but I'm guessing the Emperor probably doesn't need many special operatives who don't even know how to swing a sword yet." this was Strillian a few updates back. We couldn't even swing a sword back then...it would be the easiest bluff ever.

So it's either the 'Truth' or We tell him we are an envoy of Goodwill from Vivec, who gave us a few bits of knowledge to prove his 'Divinity' to the General.

[Man of Paper]

But we aren't an agent of Vivec, he didn't order us to act in any way, shape or form, and the General will likely question it as he is not one of his gods. And we can't trust Vivec to have a  response sent through himself or the Ordinators that would back our story. He never gave us permission to drop his name when it came to lying. It could very much offend him. I'm fine with pissing off the Legion, but risking angering anything deity-like is too much even for me.

Either the whole truth or the general truth (for those who say we should keep a little mystery, but I ask you why? We'll already have their attention with honesty) should be used. You are all against pissing off the Legion. Lying to a superior officer about where we got some very detailed information will get us on the fast track to suspicion once the lie falls through. We don't want them to think we made up our source and gave them the info to avoid having to confront a good ol' monster ally of ours.

And we can always provide details of Earth for doubters, and we have the ever-present cell phone as proof of a different type of technology and "magic".

I still don't think it would be too out-of-the-way in such a place as the Aurbis to say that you have these strange memories of Morrowind and the future of the rest of Tamriel from the outside looking in. Azura probably wouldn't like it (a clairvoyant that she doesn't know about?!), but she doesn't need to know.

Say that you have strange "memories" that seems to be from impossible places in that rarely fail you (and that you're sure that you don't get them from any Daedra). The actual reason sounds absolutely crazy to anyone who anyone who doesn't spell his name as "".

Cutoff for episode 32

a question for our glorious GM: Would it be possible to simply tell Michael "Draw this thing"

You haven't done much exploration of the nature of your communication with Michael. Maybe yes, maybe no, but I'm not going to just hand you the answer in spoilers.

I really should not participate in the game

Wierd, I've read your posts and I'm ok with you participating. Just, if you do...read the story up until now first. Like others have pointed out, a lot of the things you've suggested are clearly not applicable, and you appear to be making some very invalid assumptions. I'm reminded of this XKCD comic.


Next update probably tonight.

[GlyphGryph]

Uh. Reiterate that I support saying we came from talking with Vivec, but oppose saying we actually ARE agents of Vivec.

[PTTG??]

Tooo late...

[hermes]

don't do any of the stupid things suggested

Hehe, was stupid, but perhaps an entertaining thought for Mike to dream about??

If you guys want serious, why didn't you discuss the Ilunibi cave information?  Why not ask to accompany Strillian when he delivers the messages since he can carry people with recall?  Should Mike try to get to Ilunibi?  What about asking to get a mission to fetch Awesomicus to fight the Sleeper?  How about taking some action instead of talking craziness?

[WillowLuman]

I know it's late, but let's try the Truth (in a mild form) first, prefaced with "You're never gonna believe this, but..."

Our mild form of the truth would be saying we come from somewhere where here exists as fiction. Don't mention games, it might be hard for him to wrap his head around it.

Either that, or say we have voices in our head who guide us and know things, and have only once steered us fatally wrong.

We should find out if one of us voices can speak directly through Michael's lips.

So, popped in here and read it cause it was interesting... kinda skipped around so dunno if anyone has suggested it... but has the dude done anything with his cellphone yet? Like realizing its a modern cellphone that has a keyboard on it and attempting to bring up console with ~ or some shit and typing in commands / texting stuff to localhost?

Cheats were one of the first suggestions. Did not work out unfortunately.

Episode 9

[The13thRonin]

Not an actual suggestion but:

We could totally put a bucket on his head and just walk straight out of there while he's oblivious... Maybe even rob him blind... Just saying...

...what are you even talking about?


Unrelated, episode 32 is in process. Probably up in an hour or so, depending on how long the screenshots take me.
