I forgot how to time the mega on Furious Heights.


Quake Live

[Akura]

My palace was destroyed by my own soldiers in a coup d'état. Even after all I did to keep the people happy..

Tropico 3

I don't know about T3(I have it, but don't have internet to run Steam), but in the first game, I think military can coup even with a moderately happy population. The soldiers can be happy, but if the military faction doesn't respect you, you had better hope those soldiers are really happy. I remember a time when half my military(2 of the 4 palace guards) tried to launch a coup. The remainder of the army(all 2 of them) managed to kill half the revolters' force. The coup ended, and the survivors immediately went rebel.

Actually, I think he tried to launch a popular uprising(by himself) after the coup and then rebelled when the uprising(immediately) failed.

I have no idea what I did to that guy...

Killed by some bandit juggernauts.

You'd better fix this before I go get my spellbook.

Too late

Because meteors get boring.

I've always wondered, but where the hell does all that water come from? I remember Squirtle using it in the anime, and there's no way in hell it can blast that much water with that much pressure from the volume of just its shell.

The same way that monkeys can control fire, and blue metal disks can float around and control people's minds. Through the power of Japan.

That or there's a portal to the water dimension inside him.

Dehydrated water.  Or compressed water!
Both explanations being ludicrous - water does not compress easily at all.  But if you have a magically strong reservoir, and a magically powerful way to pump more water in, then maybe...  Could explain the force behind the water blasts too.

Actually I think you'd need a two-reservoir system.  A tiny high-pressure reservoir connected to the hoses, fed by a large absurdly-high-pressure reservoir for storage.

For a rough idea of the pressures we're talking about: Modern nuclear submarines seem to have a lowest depth of about half a mile before they're expected to crumple.  If we go twelve times as deep, six miles under the ocean, the water is only about 5% compressed.  I haven't watched the show in a long time, but it sounds like we need *at least* 100% compression.  Probably more like 1000%.

So we're talking about an adamantine reservoir with adamantine mechanisms for refilling and delivering the water.  Refilling would take astronomical amounts of energy, almost all of which would be wasted on delivery...  The potential energy is there in the tank's pressure, but the water cannons clearly don't use it.  Perhaps an adamantine turbine system reclaims the energy and stores it in a magically high-capacity battery to power the refueling process.

Or uh, yeah maybe there's a portal to the elemental plane of water.

You should have said so earlier, ninja!

Fluffy was at the dam after all. I had put my rifle away thinking he was gone and started to loot. Turn around to see him padding through the door. That sickening feeling when you know you are dead two seconds before and cant do anything about it.

Pokemon goes in pokeball, Pokemon comes out of pokeball.  Can't explain that.

Pokemons are digital data.  Thats the only explanation.  Ash is in a digital world, and he refuses to face up to it, unlike his Digimon cousins.

Goddammit pisskop its a meme

[pisskop]

shhhh  Admittance is the first step.

(my meme is guaranteed to be older)

[i2amroy]

IIRC pokeballs work by converting the matter of the Pokemon to energy and vice-versa (the fact that said amount of energy for larger Pokemon could very easily crack the world notwithstanding). Maybe squirtle works in the same way, creating the water from the energy it creates through matter annihilation of anything it eats (which would also explain why Pokemon never have to go to the bathroom).

[KingofstarrySkies]

Man, the Trainer can catch God.

Pokemon is a fucking awesome world to live in. Gods are bowing to men! Although the animal abuse problem is massive...

Now that'd be a cool mod for Democracy 3 or something. Run a pokemon region.

[hops]

The question is whether or not the Supreme Creator of the Poke on universe is actually serving the trainer, or if It just goes along for shits and giggles.

I mean, you don't see Arceus distorting reality, It just sort of.... fight.

The idea that Arceus is doing it fortehlawls has made my day. Mostly because I assume he spends most of his lifedaytimestuff just messing around.
