Ahh, this thread. What's it been since it was last active?
A forum software move and two server moves?
While it isn't quite 'funny' and is more common place these days with some of us, it reminds me how i recently tried to start a tantrum spiral by sending a group of the most popular people out to wrestle a titan. It... Didn't go quite as planned.
Urvad Logemtolis, Recruit has been struck down.
Deler Anamtekkud, Recruit has been struck down.
Asmel Idenakir, Recruit has been struck down.
Reg Monangustuth, Child is more experienced.
Three of the five i sent out died, two are still drinking, and the titan's laying there dead, and what i assume's one of the people i sent to their death's child, now has a titan kill to their name.
Naturally, i abandon my idea of the tantrum spiral and give them a custom title having a new plan. When they come of age, i put them into the military, figuring they'll turn out to be an awsome champion, veteran of many wars.
I take my eyes off them to go see to expanding my farms and building more of my above ground fortifications.
Reg Monangustuth, Recruit has bled to death.
Wearing full masterwork steel armour, he dies sparring against a guy with a silver sword after killing a titan with his bare hands as a child.
The guy who killed him of then goes on to get ambushed and pincushioned while i'm sending him outside to get smashed beneath a drawbridge.
The RNG likes to ruin my plans.
