Re: The Scott analysis thread
Right, I take that line back then. This thread isn't supposed to be about specifically judging anyone but Scott anyway. Read it as "I tried but couldn't find a person who could actually mention a specific thing that Scott is actually holding a grudge about and not just making jokes about or somethin...

Re: The Scott analysis thread
Right, well, as Harvey said, this thread didn't really fulfill its potential, but since Scott posted this I figured it was time to reveal the actual purpose of this thread anyway: To get to say that you are all silly tits! Seriously. I don't know what kind of a weird anti-charisma field he projects,...

Re: Nevri and the Dreaming
For what it's worth I *have* already gotten into the habit of doing reality checks. For me, pinching my nose shut and trying to breathe in through it seems pretty reliable: When I do it in a dream, it feels like I'm not quite pinching hard enough and air is still getting through (try it - a really l...

Re: Nevri and the Dreaming
Oh, I'm pretty sure all the rituals and protocols are just because the Hyperboreans like to have a lot of rituals and protocols about everything. (would probably help me, I'm still too lazy to even keep keeping a dream diary)

Re: Transhumanism maybe?
:/ You should try Rise from Erebus sometime. The Scions of Patria are kind of difficult to play as they get citizens slowly and have to go all over the place in the tech tree, but they're also by far the most interesting civ IMO. They are just as concept-overloaded as they are mechanics-overloaded, ...

Re: The founding of Machinaria.
'tis nice to be exploring the relationship between mankind and technology in Shireroth. I mean, if I recall correctly, Byzantium had it as a bit of an abusive one. In Straylight, it was "it's complicated", with occasional arguments and hatesex. It's good to have somewhere where they're happily marri...

Re: Transhumanism maybe?
Close, but no cigar. I mean, there is inspiration from that, but the correspondence is far too obvious for me to make too much use of it. Think of the subtler themes: A long life spent in luxury and comfort for all, fanatical religious devotion, great value given to art. Oh, and I was also thinking ...

Oh yeah, and the locations are, of course, arbitrary for now. But wouldn't it be neat if the place serving as the first great center of the Machinaria society was Citadel?

Transhumanism maybe?
The Adeptus is a terrifying thing. Yet, it's not his appearance that is terrifying. More scientific exhibit than either machine or man, his apparel and skin is designed to allow his inner functions to be exposed to study and wonderment.

Yes, I care :(. And I mean I care about Shireroth, in a very specific manner. OK, so, think back to the reign of Leto III (aka Jonas). Or, more accurately, to that coup that was instigated on #micronations, having been initiated by Harvey. I didn't like the coup's plan of making Erik kaiser (by now ...

Re: Resignation of citizenship
I'm also curious to know precisely who these trolls are and precisely how it is that they are destroying Shireroth. As far as I can tell, this is less about people deliberately disrupting the forum and more about people finally getting too fed up with each other to get along.

So, Harvey, does the charge of Scott being a hypocrite still stand? Or is he selfish, maybe, or petulant? Is he keeping a feud? Is he going to too great lengths to prove himself right? Spit it out, there's no end to the things to accuse him of!
