Murphy's Law 5: To Comic 100...And Beyond!

[Mina Kobold]

Serrin. Cute, ent she?

That would ot be doing her cuteness justice!

But yes, she is :3

And invite me!

Me too!

[Alagaesian]

I'd also ask to be invited, but my knowledge of DnD is the equivalent of a ten minute crash-course someone gave me three years ago and a couple things I was able to glean off of OotS.

[CoffeeIncluded]

Can I play the model? I wanna play the model...

[Lix Lorn]

Model?

[M@XWeru]

Coffee wants to be Camelot.

[super dark33]

Are you working on the next comic or just answearing peoples comment?

(also: DEVILS POST!)

[HalfTangible]

And invite me!

Me too!

Me three =D

[Lix Lorn]

Coffee wants to be Camelot.

NO-ONE wants to be Camelot. Camelot is a SILLY place.

[M@XWeru]

It's a model of silliness.

[Lix Lorn]

:O
I get it!

Yeesh. I know you might not have meant it that way (tone on the internet and all that) but that came over as more than a little rude. It's not like she owes anybody a comic or anybody's hired her to make and post them and even if that were the case other activities would still be allowed!
My best guess is you were just looking for an excuse to be the one to write post 666 or, if I'm being more generous, that you were just being sarcastic and that's your particular sense of humour but still... possibly a little inhibitive?

I've found it's better for the sanity to keep that guy on Ignore than to try to reason with him.

[Worlok]

And invite me!

Me too!

Me three =D

And me, four, while you're at it!

Also: Silverraptor, you're so totally unfaiiir! How could we possible last through all the waiting with you winding us up like that?

[TheBibliophile]

Yeah, I would say me five, but I only have slightly more knowledge than this.

[mucat]

Scary thought. Lloyd would make a frighteningly competent villain.

(Hey, could I use alternate-universe Lloyd, who snapped the wrong way, as a villain in a campaign someday?)

Play it here play it here

And invite me!

Me too!

Me three =D

Eek!

All right, I think the idea of Lloyd as campaign villain is a hit. Um, I did say "someday" though...it's Final Exams season at work, which isn't an ideal time for me to launch a new campaign...

How 'bout this? When Coffee decides to release the world as a game setting -- or when the strip has advanced to the point where we can extrapolate, and Coffee gives the OK -- then I'll run an alternate-timeline scenario; of course you are all invited. The PCs can be Plavaan (or other dissident) resistance fighters against the brutal Kago Empire and its merciless Paladin-General, Lloyd.

We'll call it "Auster's Law".

Of course, if anyone wants to run with the idea before then, please be my guest. It's really Coffee's idea anyway (by telling us that Lloyd could easily have "snapped the wrong way"), not mine...

Okay, I can wait! And I'll give you the details about the world. And what's Camelot got to do with this? And can we please get back on topic?

As for "snapping the wrong way," well...Take Lloyd's (And Murphy's!) noble ideas of justice and righteousness and helping the people of the much-less-powerful-now-than-it-was-many-decades-ago Kagoan Empire survive.

Now take these ideals and twist and maim and pervert them practically beyond recognition.

Like a Tarquinish twist. Only less excuse-sounding.

[Asta Kask]

I was thinking more Torquemada...

[Symmys]

I drew a picture of AU Lloyd (*evil fangirl squee*), but I can't post it right now because Photobucket is being mean to me. I'll see if I can post it later.

[Geno9999]

Huh. That's similar to my experience to DnD, and I've only a little of both 3.5e and 4e. Also, I want to join too. :3

[Lix Lorn]

I was thinking more Torquemada...

Is it bad that I thought 2000 AD before history?

Ooh! (waits for pic)

[Worlok]

2000 AD before history

Huh?

Sorry, I just didn't get that - "2000 AD before history" is not meant to imply that history began about 10 years ago, is it?

Also: Yay, picture!

[Lix Lorn]

...xD
2000 AD is a comic. There was a series called Nemesis the Warlock. The villain was called Torquemanda. I thought of this before the historical Torquey.

[Worlok]

I see. My... my comic-related geekdom... has failed me!

Seriously, though: Thanks for clearing that up.

See, Worlok, we've been trying to decide how to break it to you. Everyone else had figured out that all human history was faked on a soundstage, a project that started in August 2006. If you think you remember anything before that...well, some people are just gullible that way.

We kept playing along because you hadn't caught on yet, but now that the cat's out of the bag, we can drop this whole "human history" thing, and work on another project. Sapient penguin history, maybe?

[Lix Lorn]

Sooo... this for history?

[Asta Kask]

That's why we have punctuation.

"I was thinking 2000 AD, before history."

Much clearer.

[RdMarquis]

Mindblowing revelations aside (also, I'm tempted to do an archive binge of xkcd, now), this campaign idea sounds fun. Count me in if you don't have too many people already.

Can I sig?

EDIT: Nevermind, this is too awesome for permission!
