Something that I learned today

Post by Ari Rahikkala »

So I was listening to some pieces of MIDIized classical music, and happened to look at one called Entrance of the Gladiators. I thought it would be a dramatic song and... well... yeah, I guess now I know where *that* thing comes from.

(and yeah, I do know it was basically popularised by Yakety Sax...)

From a distance I'm concerned about the rampant lawyerism manifesting itself in Shireroth currently. A simple Kaiserial slap on the wrist or censure by the community should suffice. - Jacobus Loki

I want to see Gladiators going to go kill each other with swords and spears.. and nets.. and shields.. and bows.. and blood and gore everywhere!... but instead I see clowns getting out of cars, with big red noses, and inflatable mallets....

It's classical - it's in. Jonas, we need a Gameshouse in Kildare now ...
The character Andreas the Wise is on indefinite leave.
However, this account still manages:

Manuel - CEO of VBNC. For all you'll ever need.
Vincent Waldgrave - Lord General of Gralus
Q - Director of SAMIN
Duke Mel'Kat - Air Pirate, Melangian, and Duke of the Flying Duchy of Glanurchy
