SDN Worlds 4 Commentary Thread II

[Simon_Jester]

And now we learn a few things about the origins of Dr. Susan Islington Warren-Marshall.

Also, Lt. Kilgore loves the smell of fission in the morning.

[Shroom Man 777]

Man! Oh man! I so sympathize with her character now. Those Shepistanis. What dicks.

[K. A. Pital]

Nop, Patrick is Sigma )))) Sorry.

[Shroom Man 777]

Right. Have Unit Seven meet Sigma!

[PeZook]

Actually, I think I'll be sending Unit 5 this time.

Less chance of Communist nano-subversion, you see

EDIT: I just realized who Robert Patrick is. No, I'll definitely send Unit 7. And Stas owes it to the spirit of the game to have Sigma meet him

[MKSheppard]

Jesus christ it took you this long to realize that Robert Patrick played the T-1000?

[PeZook]

Jesus christ it took you this long to realize that Robert Patrick played the T-1000?

Yes. I actually had to Google the name.

What can I say, I have a poor memory for actor names

[PeZook]

Heh...these must've been some hilarious lawsuits.

"Your honor, the police made me poop myself!"

"Mr. Jenkins, you were threatening to execute your hostages at the time"

"Yes, but they made me crap my pants!!!"

Another update in Spozavik's visit to Umeria. Here we see the sharp contrast between Bragulan doublethink and Umerian singlethink.

For extra fun, try to figure out which parts Shroom wrote and which parts I wrote.

[Shroom Man 777]

This is from my old universe:

Encyclopedia Galactica > Culture > Entertainment > Holovision > Agent Spozavik

Agent Spozavik

Agent Spozavik is a hit BSE television series. Spozavik is the finest agent of His Imperial Majesty’s Secret Service and travels across the universe to defend the Empire from the vile slimy tentacles of the Sovereignty and her cohorts.

Spozavik routinely fights humans who explode into tentacle monsters, fire breathing Zigonian spies, Apexai supermen with lasers shooting out of their eyes and treacherous diseased Bragulan traitors who scheme against the Imperator Byzon, the Empire and its citizens on a weekly basis. Spozavik’s greatest nemesis is a human CEID agent with a Chromium Cannon, a cybernetic lower jaw and antennae sticking out of his forehead.

Spozavik rides a GNS-Burltha luxury car equipped with B-NET K-bolters, rail-rocket launchers, a nuclear turbine and an ejection seat. His suitcase can transform into a jet-propelled flying surfboard.

Spozavik has a wife and three children, one son and two daughters, one of which is a baby who never grows up. This is because Agent Spozavik is supposed to be a model for Bragulan family values. Agent Spozavik has more than a thousand episodes and at least a dozen actors have played the role of Agent Spozavik. It is believed that Imperator Darvyl Sagatantron Byzon plays himself in the show. Agent Spozavik is the all time favorite TV show in the Empire and is extremely popular in the other Omicronian Axis nations as well.

[Simon_Jester]

Obviously, the agent's tale has shrunk in the telling...

[Fingolfin_Noldor]

And so ends the great saga of the Pet Bragulan...

[Shroom Man 777]

Well, that was quite a flurry of activity, wasn't it? Four posts in, what, under an hour?

[Fingolfin_Noldor]

At our peak, we went by 2 or 3 pages in 1-2 days.

[Shinn Langley Soryu]

BEAR CAVALRY! You've really outdone yourself with this one, Fin.

As for the latest Soramirez post, I actually wanted to get it up yesterday, but I didn't have enough time before I had to go to bed. James and Kanata may not be doing much now, but they will find their workload increasing significantly as they start running into more and more Chimaerans. I still haven't decided whether Lieutenant Vasquez is still alive or not, though.

In any case, working on the Soramirez storyline is also allowing me to think about how exactly I want to do the Gallian War and the Santo Domingo Rogues, too. So much for my writer's block, I guess.

[Simon_Jester]

Posted the last installment of the adventures of Warboss Migwazza on Nguyen's World. As far as I'm concerned, Migwazza and his boys are now "open source" characters; anyone who thinks they can do something funny with them is encouraged to do so.

The Glowworm epilogue will be up soonish.

[Shroom Man 777]

Getting his head smashed into a mountain made Migwazza even smarter!

A bit like Ghazghul!

DEFF SKWADRON!

[K. A. Pital]

I'll write up my side of the events with the Collectors once I have a little more time on hands. I'll obviously send Sigma, he's my default foreign affairs talking head inside the Commune.

[Simon_Jester]

I just had a thought.

I've got several "stories" that were spread out over multiple installments; I'm not the only one, either. But some of them are tricky to find because they're dispersed over multiple pages of the story thread. Maybe we could have a "Table of Contents" thread for links to those? For example, Steve or PeZook could link to the segments they wrote about Pendleton, or I could link to my Glowworm chapters.

I suggest that you do this via the Wiki. It's what it's there for.

[Shroom Man 777]

And the General Facts thread. Thankfully, Shep compiled the 'Bragulan Identity' out of his and my posts.

Hey Stas, you sent me a diplomat a while back, right? What did he want?

He was proposing the same defense pact among 'socially progressive' states that I replied to recently. It makes a bit more strategic sense in your case because you are closer to him.

Stas, on that note, do you have any more comments on what I was saying?

[Shroom Man 777]

Nice post, Steve.

Fuck off.

[Steve]

Nice post, Steve.

Fuck off.

Yeah, Hilda was a tad cranky there.
