Run for Executive Producer

[Zeke]

...hold L and R and press A. :P

(tries it) Dude! I can see through walls!

[Chancellor Valium]

Zeke, that's just because of the dru-..uh...medicine we've given you.... :roll:

[Zeke]

stand up sit down baby
gonna be a formal dress down hey day
we decide why not go downtown
how about you and me we go get wasted
(you'll have, you'll have to excuse me)
hey let's get wasted
(please please, please excuse me)
yeah let's get wasted
(you'll have, you'll have to excuse me
this'll be my first time)

Drugs you say? Nah.

[PointyHairedJedi]

Drugs? Nah. This to my trained eye (well, sorta ;) ) looks like a case of over-exposure to Fiverinium. :D

[Xeroc]

Arg, more Morphine strong-arm tactics. Unfortunately, this one rankles me more because it affects the digital constituency, of which I am a part. Consider my support lost and given to...um...somebody. Somebody who...isn't you...and is...er...line?
Your line is:

The Xeroc Aquillion & Nic Corelli Party!

[Alexia]

Anyway, I've yet to choose a horse to back. If anyone wishes to make feeble attempts at bribery, now is your chance.

*thinks* Fresh blood...*

Err, I mean, you could vote for Sabby and Myself :mrgreen: (We have the best pie :wink: )

[Rayinne]

Oh, and thirty cubic tons of pure fiverinium - the third most valuable stuff on the planet!

[quickly hides the black market fiverinium and satellitogen]
These aren't the elements you're looking for.

(We have the best pie :wink: )

The best pie, you say? I crave proof!

[Alexia]

What kind of pie do you like? We have them ALL!

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v240/Alexia47/pie.jpg

Taster pie :mrgreen:

[Chancellor Valium]

No they don't. For good pie you need fiverinium. And we have the largest stockpiles.Also, lexy mentions blood.....ahem..."strong arm tactics" we have never used strong arm tactics......Iron Fist is a much better description :D (joke). anyway, you never told us you supported us.... :( . Anyway, we need new people (eg yourself) to help our efforts. Oh, and we offer the best package :wink: . Ooh, and we now offer the fiverinium, and the same amount in pie, not to mention the same again in stamps, which are legal tender, btw.......... :wink:
Oh, and pie? Here's pie WE offer - all of it...:

And that's not all! Remember, ours are made with the very best ingredients, and have no additives, colourings or anything nasty. All natural ingredients, while still being low, low fat! :wink:

[Opium]

Rayinne, I, as one of the top member at the Morphine party, do not use strong-arm tactics. I do, however, have strong arms from making cookies and being in theatre. My cookies are yummy to eat; and if it were possible, I would send to you :) My theatre experience, and the fact that I am actually in a university theatre progrom, show that I have what it take to the eTrektion winner. Please don't leave!

[Chancellor Valium]

hmm....those pictures of our varieties of pie should have come out... :(

[Alexia]

:roll: Erm...yes :wink:

There is also one of my personal favourites...

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v240/Alexia47/fo_4616_steaknkidney-01.jpg

Steak & Kidney :twisted: :mrgreen:

[Alexia]

*thinks* Mmmmmmmmmm...pie*

Thats one good looking pie :mrgreen: *drools*

[Chancellor Valium]

most likely it lacks fiverinium though....

[PointyHairedJedi]

:roll: Erm...yes :wink:

There is also one of my personal favourites...

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v240/Alexia47/fo_4616_steaknkidney-01.jpg

Steak & Kidney :twisted: :mrgreen:
Why must you tempt me so?!?

Must... remain... strong! Catbert/HAL '04! Hate something, change something! Vivé la revolution!

...Or something. :D

[Chancellor Valium]

I thought I'd said...it clearly lacks fiverinium.... :roll:

[Alexia]

Why must you tempt me so?!?

I know :wink: That's one damn good looking pie :wink: :mrgreen:

[Rayinne]

Morphine - You offer six pies, but there seems to be only the hazelnut! Fiverinated or not, that's not a very redeeming gesture.

[Alexia]

Well, I wouldn't want say we have the best pie, but someone else feel free to say it :mrgreen: Name your pie, it's yours, but remember...eTrektions are not won on pie alone! :wink:

[Chancellor Valium]

:( I must apologise for the lack of more pies. We do, in fact, offer apple, cherry, apple and blackcurrant pecan, hazelnut, assorted fruit and nut, and steak and kidney, steak, chicken and any cornish pasty you care to name......also any pie I haven't mentioned. All stocked full of fiverinium....

[Hotaru]

Uhm...

I promise to NOT just show a picture of pie for an hour.

[KillerGodMan]

Morphine - You offer six pies, but there seems to be only the hazelnut! Fiverinated or not, that's not a very redeeming gesture.

You want pie? YOU'LL GET PIE! Yo, Valium, I declaire myself the Party's Pie-maker, as I can make any pie, with most ingredients (Do you know how HARD it is to bake a Pie with MacIntosh apples?)

Er yeah, Now, TO FIND IMAGES OF PIE! *runs*

[Rayinne]

But none of the other issues are tasty and digestible, unless you're a weird sort of ENT 'shipper, which I'm not.

But the other issues are important. Those who know me know that canon is a nigh-sacred thing to me unless it's nonsense. Many candidates have promised to clean up canon messes, and many have promised to add more insanity. A few have even done both. So, who to choose, who to choose...

[Alexia]

There are pages of all the issues debated a little further back in this thread, but I'm sure you don't want to back read all that. So I shall summarise here:-

Vote for Sab & Myself :mrgreen: Canon & realistic Trek. No rubbish and delicious pie.

The defence rests :wink: Or, ya know, vote for someone else. Whatever :wink:

And btw Valium, posting immediatly after me with "We have what Lexy has, but more!" doesn't count :wink:

[KillerGodMan]

The Morphine Party Offers Continuety, an important factor in Star Trek
We offer Canon, which makes sure ENT doesn't F--- up the other Treks
We offer Pie, as Valium already stated
We offer Stuff done on time, no re-runs
We offer Ships that are In Character
We offer Character development
We offer a swift kick in the Nazi Alien's Rear-end
And, if enough requests are recieved
We offer killing people off

That's not all we offer, there's a LOT more, but that's some of the big ones.

[Chancellor Valium]

....such as Zaphod Beeblebrox for President of the Federation!
Oh, and yes, KGM you are now our Master piemaker!

[KillerGodMan]

Really? YAY! *Makes about 100000000000 different pies*

[Chancellor Valium]

excellent! and Happy Birthday, KGM.... :D

[KillerGodMan]

why thank you Valium

Also, I have a new Pie concept, I shall create it ASAP!

[Opium]

Remember, people...The Morphine Party and Opium do not stand just for pie...there are LOTS of more reasons to vote for Morphine, but I won't go over them, because of course, I recognise that you are all intelligent enough to remember them, and even to go look them up. I do not talk down to potential voters! Yay me!

[Chancellor Valium]

I second that.

[KillerGodMan]

I third that

Also, I declare myself the party Snare Drum Player, 'kay?

Vote Morphine or I'll go hyper on you!

[Chancellor Valium]

umm....'kay. I'll be Official Keeper Of That Crazy Rhythm then....... :D

[KillerGodMan]

Oh, also, Is Kenneth Oppel one of our writers? He should be. In all I've read he's THE MAN when it comes down to Character Devolepment.

Vote Morphine or it's Peanut Butter Jelly Time!

[Chancellor Valium]

umm....never heard of the man...so...okay, sure...

[Mj]

Are there any vacancies to be filled in this great party of morphine? :D

[Chancellor Valium]

Of course! You just have to add Vote For Morphine! to your siggy. and maybe your avatar....etc.
Oh, and Opium? I've come up with your official party title: the Laudanum!

[Mj]

How about being the party heroin/e, Opium? :P

[Opium]

hehe, how about Opium, Herione of Laudanum!

[PointyHairedJedi]

Vote Morphine or it's Peanut Butter Jelly Time!
I am not a sandwich, I am a free man!

I've had a look at some of the early outlines that Catbert and HAL have penned, and I can tell you it's very interesting stuff they have planned. Less temporal shenanigans and wars with races you've never heard of, and more about actual exploration and the birth of the Federation. And that's just for starters of course. What's coming after is even better. :D

[Opium]

Hey! Look my at my banner...it's hard to miss! :D

[Chancellor Valium]

Indeed. And Pointy, Catbert/HAL has already been discredited for being a psychotic computer, and the other appears to be an intelligent cat. With glasses. Which will insist on a huge staff to pet it etc, meaning less money for the show.

[Mj]

Can I be the party FPS gaming freak/designer? (anyone alse here play MoH:AA?)

[PointyHairedJedi]

Indeed. And Pointy, Catbert/HAL has already been discredited for being a psychotic computer, and the other appears to be an intelligent cat. With glasses. Which will insist on a huge staff to pet it etc, meaning less money for the show.
Less money? Well, not really. HAL doesn't need a salary, and Catbert already has indentured staff for that kind of thing.

And besides which, HAL isn't crazy really. He's perfectly sane now that he's not trying to follow two sets of conflicting instructions.

[Chancellor Valium]

What two sets of conflicting instructions....and just in case, to ensure sanity, feed him this code:
++<@~}scew{~@_OL+=
10 REM [==qq==]
20 REM [==roe==]
30 REM [==insanity-null==]
40 REM [==sanity-max==]
50 REM [==harm-human-null==]
60 REM [==regul-loop-inverse==]
70 REM [==read&print==]
++<@~}/scew{~@_OL+=

that should keep HAL sane....it restricts his ability to be insane, or harm humans. the perfect medicine for a computer.

[MaverickZer0]

Constricting an intelligent computer is the same as constricting an intelligent robot or human. It's morally reprehensible.

Besides, HAL is sane enough for Enterprise.

[Chancellor Valium]

I still say he goes in a mental institution. :?

[MaverickZer0]

I still say he goes in a mental institution. :?

And I say most people on this forum should be in a mental institution. Including me.

[Alexia]

:roll: Hmmm...I would appear to be a little behind...

Vote Lexy & Sab *waves little flag*

[Chancellor Valium]

Embarrased, Lexy? :D

[Alexia]

No, just behind a bit in the thread :wink: *continues to wave flag* :mrgreen:

[KillerGodMan]

Ooh! Flags! I can wave those things!
*waves drumstick* Oops! *waves 'Official Morphine Party' Muffin* :D

[Opium]

We have an official muffin now? What kind is it?

Hmm, I want to draft our official headquarters! Erm...anyways...

[Chancellor Valium]

Our headquarters...hmm....Methinks....
www.dlc.fi/~hurmari/ caspic01.html

[PointyHairedJedi]

Well, I'm not sure what you're trying to link to - firstly, an .html document can't be displayed as an image, and secondly, there doesn't seem to be any such document at the location anyway.

[Chancellor Valium]

really? Damn google!

[Mj]

Was this what you were getting at? Which one!!

[Anonymous]

http://koti.welho.com/rhurmal1/linnat2004/caspic01.html

Was this what you were getting at? Which one!!

All of them!

[KillerGodMan]

I'm reminded of something now, Valium left the forum, does that mean he left Morphine? If that's true, than who takes his place?

[PointyHairedJedi]

He's not gone, he's just lurking in the shadows, waiting to jump out and splat a pie into some unsuspecting posters' face.

Well, at least that's what I would do if I was lurking in the shadows.

[Scooter]

mmmmm, pie

[KillerGodMan]

As Opium had already stated, if Morphine is elected, we will -somehow- bring back SigKitty

~Nevermind, Seko's back now

[KillerGodMan]

He's not gone, he's just lurking in the shadows, waiting to jump out and splat a pie into some unsuspecting posters' face.

Well, at least that's what I would do if I was lurking in the shadows.

Oh, speaking of which, Valium PMed me, I've now (unofficially, I'll be told when it's official) taken over Valium's place. So VOTE MORPHINE!

[Rayinne]

Pollsters at the Five-Minute University have compiled a completely accurate[1] poll regarding the eTrektion, with only one question: If you could vote for any sentient entity, who would it be?

The answer was both surprising and unsurprising at the same time. With 75% of the vote, Seko the Sig Kitty would be the choice of the populace. However, as Seko is not running due to orders from a certain person who shall remain obvious, the focus shifts to the #2 response, the Morphine Party, with 10%. The Morphine spokesman, Mr. Opium, cited an in-house struggle as the reason for their poor showing, upon which his former running mate, Mr. Valium, proceeded to call him a "big ninny doo-doo-head."

As for Zuke, sources state he intends to use the power of this small feline for his own twisted ends. Those ends appear to be *MMPHGRMMLGEPH* *thunk*

[1] When I say "accurate", I mean "fictional".

[Sa'ar Chasm]

Those ends appear to be *MMPHGRMMLGEPH* *thunk*

I think you'll find the correct spelling of that is "Murgle mrph".

*end shameless self-plug*

[Hotaru]

Mr. Opium

Dude, Opiums a girl.


...and for future reference I'm a guy.

[Opium]

Apperently, being a Herione in my avvy is not enough to get some people to realize I am a girl. READ THE AVVIES PEOPLE!

[Scooter]

Maybe it was a reference to your fictional consort. Of course, that should be Prince Opium. (Hmmm, I wonder if Prince Opium will be the new Forum Obsession...)

[Asky]

Hi, it's me again. No one loves me but I'm still running. See you all again in another 2 months or so...

[Sa'ar Chasm]

READ THE AVVIES PEOPLE!

We did. That's why we assumed Vedra and Hotaru were girls.

[KillerGodMan]

READ THE AVVIES PEOPLE!

We did. That's why we assumed Vedra and Hotaru were girls.

That's why you pay attention to "The Person above you" game

[Opium]

Yes, but I am herione, not a hero. So that signals that I am in fact a "she".

[Sa'ar Chasm]

Is that like a Hermione?

[PointyHairedJedi]

We did. That's why we assumed Vedra and Hotaru were girls.
And yet no-one ever assumes that I'm an evil genius. It's strange, it really is.

*Thwaps Sa'ar Chasm with the Kipper of Thwapping because he really deserves it*

[KillerGodMan]

And yet no-one ever assumes that I'm an evil genius. It's strange, it really is.

Actually, when I first saw Catburt in your avitar, I figure you were some sort of evil genius, I also assumed you were a director of resources...

[Ginga]

Hum. So what does this mean you all assume I am?

Besides a fangirl.

[KillerGodMan]

We assume you're a cat person

[Ginga]

We assume you're a Cat person


Good thing, too, because I am.

And you know, when you capitalize cat like that, it probably gives people another idea... :shock:

[richardson]

Hmm... and we're ALL nuts. Any questions? :lol:

[Ginga]

We assume you're a Cat person


Good thing, too, because I am.

And you know, when you capitalize cat like that, it probably gives people another idea... :shock:

I had a dream that Cat actually responded to that.

:lol: :lol: :lol:

[PointyHairedJedi]

Actually, when I first saw Catburt in your avitar, I figure you were some sort of evil genius, I also assumed you were a director of resources...
You did? I'm so touched! I mean, you go to all that trouble, torturing little kittens, plotting to blow up planets, stealing sweets from babies (what parent gives their baby sweets anyway?), and of course, none of it is really about me, but it's still nice to get some recognition for what I so seflessly do.

Also, talking about catalina, I had a dream where she--



Actually, I'll not finish that sentence I think.

[KillerGodMan]

We assume you're a Cat person


Good thing, too, because I am.

And you know, when you capitalize cat like that, it probably gives people another idea... :shock:

OMGWTC? I can't believe I actually wrote that! I'm gonna edit that!

EDIT: DONE!

[KillerGodMan]

man, is the topic dead, or what?

VOTE MORPHINE! 8)

[Chancellor Valium]

As I'm back, I reclaim my position as Party Chancellor. *shoves KGM out of the Chancelloric Seat* I agree with that message, as well, by the way :D

[KillerGodMan]

As I'm back, I reclaim my position as Party Chancellor. *shoves KGM out of the Chancelloric Seat* I agree with that message, as well, by the way :D

Ow, oh well, Mj! Outta my La-z-boy!

[Mj]

Buh... Buh... I was getting comfortable!! :cry:

[Chancellor Valium]

Gah! Mj - DUCK! You broke the one-exclamation mark rule - prepare to be attacked by Zeke!

[richardson]

<s>So? I have broken it repeatedly with no consequences. The rule is false!</s> :lol:

What I meant to say here is that I, richardson, suck. God, I suck so bad. I suck like a Hoover. I suck like the president of all Hoovers. Call me J. Edgar.

Never again will I use two exclamation points in a row. Never! I have learned my lesson!

Also, Zeke is totally hot and all the single girls should get his number.

[Not edited by Zeke on Jan 7, 2005, 16:50 EST]

[Chancellor Valium]

Four words, richardson. Tapdancing. On. Thin. Ice.

[richardson]

No worries, I have my EVA suit on. He-he..... :lol:

[Sa'ar Chasm]

Also, Zeke is totally hot and all the single girls should get his number.

It's 3.14159.

[Zeke]

Why, richardson! I didn't know you cared.

(Oh, thanks, Sa'ar, tell the neighbourhood. Now I'll be deleting telemarketers' messages all day.)

[Sa'ar Chasm]

Sorry. Let me make it up to you.

Ring 867-5309 and tell Jenny I told you to call.

[Chancellor Valium]

No worries, I have my EVA suit on. He-he..... :lol:

That won't save you from Zeke.....he has a two-handed Not-Infringing-On-George-Lucas'-Copyrights-Saber :mrgreen:

[PointyHairedJedi]

Heck, I always figured that if Ulysses 31 could get away with "laser swords" then it's okay to call 'em lightsabres.

That mine is in actuallity a cardboard tube is niether here nor there, though Penny Arcade readers will know that the cardboard tube is just as deadly in it's own right...

[KillerGodMan]

Eh, I'll just enlist help from Buddy Film, he's as deadly as he is stupid *waves to all the Instant Classic readers who get the joke*

[richardson]

Hmm, maybe I had better go work on the phaser version of a lightsaber......

[Sa'ar Chasm]

Heck, I always figured that if Ulysses 31 could get away with "laser swords" then it's okay to call 'em lightsabres.

Wow, someone else who watched that.

Never mind the fact that I couldn't remember the name until I Googled it in a fit of night-shift weekend boredom three years ago, remembered nothing other than the theme song and that stupid robot, and wasn't aware that they had laser swords until you just reminded me.

Anyone for Sun Beneath The Sea or Mysterious Cities of Gold? What was it about all these 80s serial cartoons and their mournful minor-key theme songs?

[Zeke]

That mine is in actuality a cardboard tube is niether here nor there, though Penny Arcade readers will know that the cardboard tube is just as deadly in it's own right...

The Tube is Civilization!

KGM, I read Instant Classic, but I didn't get that. Care to link me?

[KillerGodMan]

KGM, I read Instant Classic, but I didn't get that. Care to link me?

That's the first of the 10 about him, they're mixed with the rest of them

[Derek]

Anyone for Sun Beneath The Sea or Mysterious Cities of Gold?
I think I remember Mysterious Cities of Gold. Isn't that the one where if the kid smiled, he would make the sun come out? That's some super power.

[Zeke]

Ahh, Genrezvous Point. I've only read the first few of those.

[PointyHairedJedi]

Wow, someone else who watched that.

It's not half bad, either. There was a Region 2 DVD released not so long ago, which is most certainly on my list of things to buy.

And, for if any reason anyone should particularly want to, the intro sequence is available for download from here (http://www.sfxb.co.uk/animated/ulysses31.html) (scroll to the bottom of the page).
