Spoiler: awesome idea (click to show/hide)

Okay. Guys. Hear me out.
This might just be my inner 40K-nerd speaking, but Sburb's Alchemy system reminds me of ork technology. Now, I was sitting there one day thinking, "How awesome would a session of S***b be if all the players were orks?".

Think about it for a moment, fellow Warhammer players. You have four orks, from different clans and different methods of fighting. Maybe a Bad Moons shoota boy, a Deathskulls mek boy, a Goff rocker, an Evil Sunz biker. Can you imagine the alchemising? The sprite prototypes? The enemies? Derse and Prospit now rippling with guns? The Lands? The denizens of said lands? The number of dead denizens from said lands?!

I kind of want to run this as a forum adventure thing. If anyone approves of this idea, I might get my lazy ass working and do it.

badmoonShoota [BS] began shoutin' at eavymetalRocker [ER]
[BS]: OI, YA GIT, DO YA WANNA PLAY DIS GAME?
[ER]: roit den, wot game'z it?
[BS]: Z'CALLED SGOB, Z'ABOUT FIGHTIN AND BUILDIN STUFF TO FIGHT WIFF
[ER]: sounds roit rockin'.
[BS]: IS DARN SHOOTY IS WOT IT IS

DO IT.

Dibs on playing, this sounds amazing. I don't actually play 40k, since I'm not made of money, but I have red of da Orks.

Seconded. More Warhammer is always good. Too bad I don't have the tabletop figures, since like the above, I'm not rich.

Concurred. I want in on this as well. We's gonna bing a roit proppa WAAAGH to da Insif- Insipisfs- dat place wot gots da planetz n floaty fings.

Fixed that for you.

E:

Awesome! I'm not the only one who thinks this is a brilliant idea.
Okay, you have two choices to make, dear friends.
1. Leave it on Bay12 and keep it to ourselves or throw it on the MSPA forums?
2. WORDS ONLY for high speed orkin' or SOME IMAGES TOO for seein' wot boyz are wot?

I can't participate in this cool ork Sburb session though, since my time's a bit tight. Definitely watching this though.

[Doomshifter]

I hate to be pushy, but ...
ANSWER ME BLOODY QUESTIONS, YA GITS!

1) Bay12 Games forum game, or MSPA forums fan-venture?
2) High-speed+no pics, or Slower+pics?

[Darvi]

B12 games because I don't want to miss out on it without having to add yet another tab.

With pics.

EDIT: Here ya go, y'umie gits.

Pff. I've got 9 tabs open constantly. I am a professional denizen.

[Darvi]

Seriously? I have almost 20 times as many tabs as you do.

I guess I should try to get rid of some...

[Aqizzar]

I know I've seen Andrew plug that exact book before, but I can't remember where.

Also I'm just going to go ahead and link this again.
Defaced book: The best gift.

Not to distract but somebody's forum game, but I want to distract from somebody's forum game and point out that this is the single most important link you can possibly read to understand Homestuck.  Andrew Hussie has been balls-to-the-wall crazy and meticulous in his grotesqueries for his entire professional career.  He also appears to have a hard time thinking of original jokes, because I'm not sure if something counts as a callback when you're calling-back to something maybe ten people knew about.

Suddenly Rose's character arc makes vastly more sense.

[armeggedonCounselor]

Almost 180 tabs? I couldn't do it. For one thing, I refresh every tab every five to ten minutes or so. Also, that many tabs would end up eating all of our bandwidth.

[Darvi]

Oh come on Aq I just erased that from my brain D:

Okay who is who in that. I take it that the book defacer is actually AH himself? It looks like his artstyle. Also the humanimals are pretty great.

[Soadreqm]

Yes. S_O is Andrew, and if you dive to the bottom of the quote pile, you will find that the last page is just the words "YOU'RE WELCOME" superimposed over his face. He mentions in the thread that the book was a gift for someone.

[zchris13]

So that's what he looks like.

[ShoesandHats]

Yes, you have seen his lips in all their glory for the first time.

EDIT: Update.

[fergus]

Update.

Either I ninja'd you, or you ninja'd me.
