Lacrosse is an inherently funny word, don't you think?

P. S. Wouldn't they have gone crazy, watching and playing only lacrosse for 800 years?

Sure, there's a league. But most College graduates get through college 'cos Uncle Ian is paying for it. So, they might spend two years in the starfleet, the star marines, National Lab system, whathave you.

Lonestar-- Ah, OK. Maybe Morgan himself will be out there as soon as this nasty war business is over. Morgan is now a very very busy man!
LMP & Sprayber-- Ah, OK. Firaxis it is, then! Hsiang! Bring me a rum!
Sovereign-- Hmmm...well, I'd figure that right now in the BAC World it's early June. Morgan's visit is slated for...August if I remember correctly. So, it'll be after this beastly little war ends. What plot could we work with? Any ideas?
Franky-- Uh-oh. Something tells me Mr. Yang is going to act like his jerky old self again. Morgan would hate to publish the transmissions, but if needs be...

Hey, if you wanna vote, you gotta serve. Doesn't mean the guv'ment won't help out so you can serve it in the best possible way.

oh by goodness! oh my goodness!
i have quite an idea for a new SMAC/X interactive game and already thought up of the system for over a hour straight today, after realizing how easy to establish it, implentment it and then play it without much hassle (maybe except the moderator, shrugs) the game will be bit of a fast pace, so not lot of creative writing and doesn't take to much time a day to participate also maybe a bit of basic math as it involves the fudge system a bit, but oh wells  ...for it to work aslo requires honesty, consideration and common sense.
it started since i explored the nevert ending story stuff at civfanatics, and then suggested a renewal of CC... now, i really thought about it and want to make it happen... just getting people interested to join here in this forum. I can moderate it..just establishing it will take some time, i can get it going by next week (with my record, possibly a week or more then that...but i am very excited!)
i even worked out the military and probe stuff which usually always the problem in interactive games...and will be fair.
won't be a slug fest either...unless the people wants too  and will be of a fast pace.
if i pull this off and if i have the time... start a Civ3 one which will in my opinion be better and more stable then NESes at Civfanatic.
i will type it out on wordpad when i can tonite, then post it tommorrow or whatever in a Development thread i start out... where i can get some feedback.
what do you think? do you think i will pull this out or is it just another phase of mine?

Apolyton crashed out last night for some reason. I don't know where anyone is now. Just when I was starting to get some idea of when people come on . . .

Well, so am I, now.
All right, we need more storylines. Do you have any new ideas, History Guy?

Well, maybe some more stuff about mafia...but we all know about that plot already...
Hmmm...how's about some silly political coup that gets some top officials in trouble, and the UN wants a trial?

They're gonna arrest Ethan Maxwell in Avalon pretty soon. Maybe someone will care about that (probably the UN).

Did you see Tomorrow Never Dies? That's got a lot of inspiration potential vis-a-vis the media and its power.

Hmmm...or perhaps we could do something completely unexpected. Some politician, some big-wig, does something really stupid with disastrous consequences!!

Yes, I have actually. The one in which Jonathan Pryce plays a rather kooky little magnate who decides to literally make the news, if I remember. Actually, it might be somewhat interesting...especially if later on I connect it somehow with the mafia stuff...But the publishing idea in itself sounds actually, fairly promising!

Hello I'm here!
Well, just to inform you all about what's happening in frankychanland,
Just took my French Oral exam and final today (bombed em both), so I'll be able to post my stories up probably by tomorrow. I got one more final (History exam) so it should be pretty easy....it's about european history 1790-1945 (something I know a lot about  )
I've been farting around in the "Off-Topic" forums and spreading the evil will of FRANKYCHAN across Apolyton. 
Well, I know I've been slackin but if I can survive this week, it should be easy sailing from now on.........until next semester.

Don't worry about it. It's just that time of year. I'm surprised I've spent as much time in here as I have, given what sort of a week this has been. Still, I've only got three weeks of class left, then exams for two weeks, and after that it's AC-Fiction all the way!
Or until next semester . . . whichever comes first.

New story section today. We find out New Seattle soccer fanatic Sam's last name, but more importantly, he finds out he'll be watching his favorite players in Sparta and Morgania at the end of the season.
