I didn't even see the mistake. I just saw "There are 10" and thought "When one person had the binary joke as their sig it was funny and witty, but this is pushing it."

lordsippa · 01-05-2003, 20:12

Actually I was thinking along the lines of Barry too. Didn't notice mistake either.

Oh and this thing is for people aged 8 - 17 so I doubt you could avail. Although people on this board range from bout 14 to 20+...

<<For future reference canard, 'ceux' = 'those'.>>
or celles. depending on the gender of the object.....so to speak.

AS I have ALWAYS said: Ctyi is a military camp. That is why they decomission nuclear weapons and feed them to us as 'canteen food'. I have the theory worked out definitively in a number of manners.
They could be trying to poison us - kill those that would take over from them; implanting chips to control us or simply conducting experiments upon us homo-superior-alpha.
There is part one. I'll detail the lot after exams.

I've always prefered Galens theory <unless you are Galen in which case I prefer your older theory> that although it's a military camp, it's one where they attempt to simulate the gassings popular in world war two through subtle usage of our own ... <ahem>... gases. How? Feeding us that hideous slop they called Chicken-fish. ... Although supposedly the quality of food has improved.

Then where's my rifle? I wasn't given a rifle!

And ctyi might just be an attempt to gather all the smart young people together in the hope that someone will blow up DCU. To get rid of us all, you see.

Yes....coz, erm, this way we get to see that there is a whole new style of test for us to attempt.Hmm...
And I feel the commuter's pain who said that contributed to her not going back. It's not fun running back and forth.....granted I live 10 minutes down the road, but STILL.
CTYI has, however, not changed me remotely, though I've only been here a week. But I was a manic weirdo then, I'm a manic weirdo now. "'YAY!' 'No GIR, that's a bad thing' YAAAY'"

The ctyi that i remember was the incredible experience of masses of insane people congregated in the same general area with hilarious consequences. Remember the orgies (16+ people with their legs in the air) with music and far too much smashing pumpkins (in a good way). I remeber being a commuter, waking up at half six every morning to get here by 8 and not returning home until 11 at night, going to bed and actually enjoying waking up at half 6 in the summer because it meant i could be here sooner. The three weeks felt like years but passed far too quickly. They melded in to one happy fuzzy memory punctuated by joy and particularly memorable events (Eoin in drag!). It was the epitamy of all things fun and wonderful.

This year i just wanna go home.

lordsippa · 16-07-2003, 20:21

Who is Vilea and which Eoin? <there were many>

Yeah... dammit! Neil ask the n00bs to post in the who is who thread first thing. Put it in the charter.

**Crash** · 17-07-2003, 00:11

Heh, what do i look like, some form of mod??

/me looks at side panel

OH SWEET JESUS HOW'D THAT HAPPEN?!?

lordsippa · 17-07-2003, 00:25

Well Neil, when a mammy and a daddy are in love there can be so much love that a new person is made...

Alternatively Fio can pass her modship over to some miscellaneous tramp on the street.

Let's see which one applies.

Aliminator · 17-07-2003, 21:19

not to be a wanker or anything, but Quiggers (Cormac Quigley / sOl) woulda been better.

lordsippa · 17-07-2003, 23:04

Not to... well ... ok to be quite the w4nker, NO! NO! NO! Neil is perfect mod material (and he's oh so dreamy)... Cormac would... well I'd be 12 clicked by now cause of the fuss i'd have kicked up. Not that I don't like cormac but I think the c). part of why neil was made mod should apply to him too <neil knows what i mean>

:ninja:

incidentally... CORMAC SWALLOWS!

(i love ya really baby)

Funny story, actually. Remember the day you woke up, and those dogs were licking your face...

I disagree. Cormac manages muppetry in ways others can only dream. I reckon Neil was the best man for the job, but I am vaguely regretting there is a job at all...

Incidentally, the people youve mentioned in brackets are mutually exclusive.
