The evil Santar is ready to throw fury at Roggie!
I'm not sure what his angle will be, if you can think of a history for him, Rogs, do so, just make it funny.

And what, you don't think Robot Skittles had plenty of time to go surfing and come back in time to listen to most of Anakron and Panakeia's conversation? Quote:

Wasn't Lugnut up with Anakron and Panakeia?

Actually, the dead Orc was never named in the game thread, right? So it didn't have to be Lugnut, did it?

Actually, I left him unnamed so that if someone objected to him being dead, well, it didn't necessarily have to be him. But the androgynous part kind of hinted at it.

There are a lot of androgynous orcs (lisping too) hanging around Mordor since the Dweomer began. Haven't you been reading your textbooks? They love bureaucracy too. So Lugnut NOT being androgynous anymore, automatically discludes him as one of Diamond's victims in this particular instance. Not that it matters. If Diamond had not changed anything, I thought of a half dozen ways to deal with it anyway. I don't have anything to do with my time except think about ATM2, doesn't that tell you something?

If anyone is wondering about my intentions for RoboSkitt, it's pretty much nothing more than to see it destroyed in various and spectacular ways.

I'll fill my save soon, but I need to find something out from LMP first. His last post intrigues me, and I sort of need to know something about it before I write my post... EDIT: On second thought, since LMP is on vacation, it might take him a while to get back to me. I'll hold off on that in case he doesn't have to chance to reply soon, so save filled anyway.

I've just posted an interesting little twist on the bridge of Kazad dum. A little roll reversal, I think it works. A chance for Roggie of Morgoth to show his quality. I leave it to you to decide what happens to him against the evil Santar.

It could be interesting. Let's save it for later. I've got an idea about it that's better to be done once certain other things occur.
Form, B88, TGWBS... are you guys around somewhere...?

Exams finished last Monday, but I've been back at college and learning lots (paradoxically, I'm doing more subjects now than before exams). But at least the exams are over. I'll be with you soon.

Save filled. Look out Skittles!
Interesting way of dealing with Santar, Roggie, I must say. Didn't see that coming.

Hookbill, you've crossed with LMP. He's got Skittles being converted to... something... and you've got her being fallen upon and whatnot. For all that teasing Skittles is dangerously fun, I'm pretty sure that unless Smilog and Co. fell on RoboSkit whilst Anakron was elsewhere with LegitiSkit, an edit needs to be made to correct the inconsistency.

Ah. I'll see what I can do...
Wait, I'm confused. I was sure that Skittles was still in the laboratory waiting for the robot to leave and go and do mischief, but it got stuck with the door. I assumed that was when Anakron and Panakeia entered with their announcements. Both this and this post lead me to belive this.

Hold on... maybe I misread...
Edit: Gotcha. Nevermind. Ignore me. I definately missed something in there. Blame the weather: going from 50 to 90 degrees in two days makes for somewhat or a rough transition.

Save filled.
Pertinent info for the easily confused : Smilog, Tollin and Igör have left the labratory, leaving Anakron, Panakeia, Skittles and RoboSkitt behind.

I don't have enough creative juices to make a whole post to follow on Diamond's latest and greatest, but if anybody wants to (coughCeluiencough) do so, Anakron will drawl, "Yes, I believe! Absolutely! See ya! Bye!"

I hope someone wants to rescue Panakeia. Preferably Anakron.
If not, she can escape by tearing her dress. That's almost worse than being hit with Skittles' switchblade.

Hookbill, I'd like to preface this by saying that I love your character and I love your writing. Still, I have a bit of an issue that needs addressing.
Some of you know, some of you don't: I'm in control of Heren's Roggie account. He was slated to write Roggie himself, but he went and became a father on me (and what a cute baby, I might add, and a beautiful wife, so no wonder he has less time now... ) and so offered me the loan for the duration of the game. That said, I have a very set character description of Roggie being misunderstood, not cruel or self-absorbed. He was a slave to Morgoth back in the day and as soon as he could escape, he did. He has a reputation, but it's unwarranted. Roggie of Morgoth is an actor and only accepted this country into his control because Mardil convinced him that any other would take it for self-advancement and the people would suffer. Roggie has a temper, but he would not kick a dwarf and laugh, nor would he punch him in the face. He will threaten anybody that gets near him, but Roggie's bark is far more potent than his bite, if you follow. He's a huge pacifist, regardless of his decision to make Skittles his chief war advisor. Please, keep up the fantastic writing. It consistently makes me laugh aloud. But try not to take too many liberties with my character or soon I'll not recognize him. The whole reason I'm so fond of him is that Roggie is not a stereotypical Balrog.

Well, I had a bit of a plan going on. It was a joke that everyone started hitting Smilog, and it would be explained later that his voice sometimes reaches the exact and odd pitch that inadvertently makes anyone who hears it feel violent. Tollin would slowly have resorted to giving Smilog a good kick every now and again, not only for this reason but also because he is becomes extremely arrogant and treats Tollin like a servant at times. Nothing against Roggie, I wanted this to be a joke reserved for later, but I can reveal it now if it will make you feel better.
I know Roggie isn’t supposed to be pure evil or anything, I just like to think that my character is that annoying at times. I can change things if it'll make you feel better.

I'm quite okay with the joke; it just seemed as though Roggie were acting so out of character as to become somebody else completely. Unless, of course, there's a RoboRog running around that I don't know about, which is entirely possible.

Funny stuff, Diamond!
I liked the cork floor! But wouldn't that expand or something when the water came though the ceiling? Or, we could just ignore this and count them as separate jokes. Jokes, as we all know, follow their own rules.

Probably best to keep the jokes separate, since the corkboard floor was random spur of the moment insertion, with disregard for all things resembling logic...

I'm going to take a few days' break from ATM2 whilst Anakron is off konveying new fanatical religions amongst Trolls (Allah-matar), helping Lugnut develop his (Womb of the Ring with the prophesied Second Coming of Sauron), Dwarves (we'll think of something), and Humans (Elessar Reincarnated in Mardil, among others). Panakeia will eventually find him, I suppose, somewhere in Mordor not so far from Mount Zoom....

Ummm. RoboSkitt is currently disabled. Let me know if that's okay. If not, I'll delete or edit as required.
