Pixies No More!

The Giant · 08-18-2003, 06:59 PM

If you turn your attention to any of the posts by Bogotter or WampaX, you will note that they have left behind the ranks of the Pixies in the Playground to become much heartier Dwarves in the Playground.

A brief golf clap is in order.

(golf clap)

I badly want to be a dwarf!

I'm also eager to find out what you shapechange into after dwarf. :D

Bogotter · 08-18-2003, 08:44 PM

Aye! *Tis good to be a dwarf. *Now who's up fer an ale and an arm wrestle?!

The Giant · 08-18-2003, 09:39 PM

The bad news: Now they get a +4 dodge bonus to their AC against me! :-[

Bogotter · 08-18-2003, 09:44 PM

For that comment:

Gain a LEVEL!

WampaX · 08-19-2003, 06:44 PM

I was trying to stay ahead of Bogotter in total posts . . . nuts to that

From pixie to dwarf is a big leap in size. Is there a category beyond giant? A Titan in the Playground maybe? ;D

Bogotter · 08-19-2003, 07:42 PM

Heehee I had a feeling you were competing with me! LOL.....I suspected that when you posted that one message twice in two seperate threads.

I was like "Hey! He's padding his stats!" :P

WampaX · 08-19-2003, 07:46 PM

I did mean for one to be a notification to Giant and the other to be a discussion . . . but I could have combined them into one post, come to think of it.

So, are ya gunnin' for Giant's top spot? ;D

Bogotter · 08-19-2003, 07:57 PM

Nah....you can't compete with the Giant!

My free time is usually filled up with D&D planning and video game playing....but right now I'm not playing any games except Magic Online occassionally and my next D&D session isn't until the end of September.

So I've been filling the void with posting here and doing some miniature painting.

WampaX · 08-19-2003, 08:22 PM

Yeah . . . my current unemplyment is the reason for that constant buzzing pixie-turned-dwarf here.

[pad-pad-pad]

So, to keep this kinda on topic . . .
Giant, how many gradiations are there and what are the plateaus?

The Giant · 08-20-2003, 12:55 AM

There are 5 categories, but I'm not giving them away until somone makes it there. No one can be a Giant but me, however.

The Giant · 08-20-2003, 01:01 AM

Oh, by the way: We now have over 500 posts. I believe another golf clap is in order.

(golf clap, again)

WampaX · 08-20-2003, 02:06 AM

The categories are all humanoids, right?
I'm gonna guess Pixie, Dwarf, Human, Orc, Ogre.
hrm. Might be a Troll on that last one.

We'll just have to wait and see . . .

Bogotter · 08-20-2003, 10:59 AM

I think Human in the Playground would be really lame. I doubt that's in there.

Bogotter · 08-20-2003, 11:07 AM

One more post and RawbearNYC becomes our third dwarf!

RawBearNYC · 08-20-2003, 11:11 AM

What?

woops, there it is.

clarkcd · 08-20-2003, 04:18 PM

All you people and your high falootin' titles. :P

Watch your back or us pixies might just rise up against you dwarves. We are a higher ECL creature you know. 8)

Bogotter · 08-20-2003, 06:11 PM

I'm just hoping the next change comes at 101 though I'm fearing it might be something like 151 or even 201. GULP!

I was expecting there to be more than 5 levels as well.

The Giant · 08-20-2003, 10:15 PM

I wish there was, but we have no control over the number of titles. Although, technically, I can create any number of custom titles, I would just have to apply them manually rather than them automatically updating when your post count gets high enough. If everyone gets over 1000 posts, we'll talk then.

Bogotter · 08-20-2003, 10:17 PM

I'm sure if we reach the pinnacle and move beyond you won't leave us hanging with no room to grow.

We may not be able to become giants but there are some other cool things to aspire to be. Like a real annis. ;D

WampaX · 08-20-2003, 10:42 PM

by then i should have pinpointed the code and given a possible upgrade to RawBearNYC ;D

and as long as Giant is a Mountain Giant, I don't think we have any worries about getting near him even with Storm Giant number of posts. :P

Bogotter · 08-20-2003, 11:18 PM

Shameless post to see if 101 is the next threshold or not.

Bogotter · 08-20-2003, 11:19 PM

Nope.....oh well. <sigh>

The Giant · 08-20-2003, 11:40 PM

The Voice of Mod: Please don't spam the thread about post counts. The irony is too much for some of us. ::)

clarkcd · 08-21-2003, 12:31 AM

I actually think that's close to 100% of your daily alotment of iron...y. :P

Gannes · 08-21-2003, 09:41 PM

Oooo, bad puns. I zinc I might have to avoid this thread then.

Bogotter · 08-22-2003, 11:42 AM

Don't take good puns for granite!

The Giant · 08-22-2003, 01:55 PM

OK, that is IT. This thread's done, everyone out of the pool. :P
