It's gonna be dope. If you want a cameo, as a raider, please post so here. 

Gonna elaborate for us? Or do we just make a random post about a game we have no knowledge about?

He's saying that it's going to be dope. xD Dam, that's such a nice description right? I'm almost drooling right now. 

Pregame salivation? That certainly is odd, nmelssx.

Not at all, James. You must have experienced it at one time or another.

Actually, no. My saliva serves mainly to break down starches and lubricate food.

Woohoo! Mouse lubricant.

...

That would sound really bad, if my profile pic wasn't a fox...no, wait, that still sounds pretty bad.

No, actually - What I'm imagining right now is you sitting at home, while dripping saliva on your mouse, salivating it, so you can better access it with your hand. Lubrication on a whole another level. 

What.

What does the fox say?

Fuck you, that's what.

They are known to communicate with a variety of yipps, barks, howls, and unearthly wailing noises. Here's a link. It may not be entirely accurate, but it's fairly spot on. Just ignore the picture of a fox "scent marking" (read: taking a dump).

I believe he was referring to a big thing on youtube right now that is called 'what does the fox say'. It's a song thing my teacher showed me. By Ylvis. The first lyrics on the song is literaly 'Dog goes woof, cat goes meow, bird goes tweet and mouse goes squeak....'

(the link is to youtube)

He knows (Or at least I think he does)xD

james just replies like that as a joke. Plus, he doesn't use YouTube.

I don't think he was joking, but I could be wrong.

I know that, that was why I warned him it was a link to youtube.

I was intending to be funny. It's hilarious how everyone either dismisses the joke or assumes that I have no knowledge of the video. I hate the song. I mean, I guess it is good for foxes, but, still, it makes me want to beat my head against a desk.

"Fuck you, that's what."

Haha. xD I saw a video of Tails from sonic the hedgehog watching that music video, and his response was pretty much that.

I would like in, if you don't mind.

So what is it going to be about? O-O

The post-apocalypse, duh. :)

Reeeaally?! Wow James, you're so descriptive. But really what is this about @Malkalack?

I don't know. :p

Edit: Look at you, you speed tagger, you.

Does it matter?! It's gonna be dope anyway!

His last stories weren't "dope" so excuse me being a little skeptical. Especially when the description is so vague. -_-

Piggeh Town sucked, but Happy House showed that he has the potential for improvement.

Earth is completely infested with something, (no spoilers! But it ain't zombies) and you are a survivor. (DU 

Anyways, it's sort of about how people get, and how the real monsters can be people. Also, the monsters are pretty cool. And have a weird explanation. And if you're just here to criticize my writing, @Danaos then piss off. 

Not a great explanation xD

Not sure why you are moaning at Dan alone though.

He's just annoying. And you don't need a great explanation. I was just offering people a cameo, if they wanted one, 

If you need some help writing, I could use something to distract me from my current game(s) until my writer's block clears up.

Either way, I'd like a cameo.

@jamescoker1226 I don't need help, but I would love a cameo. There will be a raider named James. Sound good?

Sure.

Either way, I just though I'd offer.

I appreciate the offer, thank you.

No problem.

The hell with it, sure, I'm on board, too if you need another guy.

So. Kiel, James, Coins. Who else? 

You know what Mal, you need to stop getting to offended my every minor thing that happens. All I was really asking for was a description of the story, then you have to go off and bitch about it. Generally when someone tells you about a story, they give a description.

No you don't need a great explanation. I never said give a great explanation, I just wanted a small summary. It's like when Sharky was making a horror game based on sharks and that's all she said about it. Stop being a bitch about everything and remove that pole out of your ass.

Danaos, I already said piss off. I don't want, or need you whining so. Are you so self entitled that you think I am going to give you a detailed summary? The contents of the story don't MATTER right now, smart one! 

This is purely about whether people want a cameo. Or NOT. If you feel the need to bitch, for the love of God, do it elsewhere. 

No one here is being a 'bitch' other than you. He already said, and I agree, we don't need a detailed explanation. We just want to know something about the story so we can grasp what it is.

I feel we get an adequate gist. The apocalypse happened, the player is a survivor, we can request cameos as raiders. I really don't see need for more details, to be honest.

Still, @Malkalack , you are being rather rude about it.

He can go moan and whine somewhere else. 

I don't believe that you need to release any more information, but, still, you could have deflected Danaos' demands in a more respectful way. I will agree, though, that he was being a little pushy about it.

Danaos can go somewhere else if he wants to demand summaries. 

Alright, I'm not championing him or anything. I was just trying to keep things from getting too ugly. Speaking of which, I need to find out why AL124 left and never came back.

Dunno. I sent her a message about cleaning supplies. Not sure why she didn't respond... 

That's probably why. XD

I guess I'll call her tomorrow.

I was going to leave this but you just don't seem to know when to stop. First off, I'm not the only one who has stated your first story was bad. It was, just accept that and move on. Second, you seem to target me simply for asking for a summary. I'm not going off and demand that you present the greatest description ever, but you just don't get that. For some reason, you feel that any criticism you get is a personal attack on you. You've shown this before, and you're showing it now. But you know what, if you really want me to start attacking you, here you go:

Your first storygame was a steaming pile of shit freshly squeezed from the anus of a dirty primate and promptly thrown into the faces of the readers. It was the absolute worse storygame I have ever seen in my life, and you are vile for making it. Your grammar is worse than that of a preschooler that was dropped on his head. I would rather have mousepaw read Warrior Cat fan fictions to me than have to look at the abomination of a story you created. If I were to put a pen between my asschecks and scribble on paper without even looking then present it to the public, I would still receive more positive reactions than your first story did.

There you go. Now you have a completely justifiable reason to call me an asshole. Your welcome.

*Hides laughter*

I already thought you were an asshole. Thank you for cementing that. How childish are you, that you lose your temper over being asked to stop harassing a thread? 
 

Honestly, I would say you lost your temper before him.  He was not harassing anyone either.

I never lost my temper. I just treated the situation as you would with any other kid who whines about everything.

Child: "You are mean! You never say anything nice about me!"

Me: "If you really want to know what I am like when I'm mean, I'll show you."

 I was proving a point. Now you have a valid reason to call me an asshole instead of bitching for no reason. Again, you're welcome.

I want in.

Now, if it were a post-modern apocalyptic story. . .

It's not Fallout. It's not post-modern.

I think he was referring to postmodern like the art and literary movements.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Postmodernism

Thank you james. 

I'm really interested why he thought I was talking about Fallout, though.

Postmodern = futuristic?

Modern means "right now". So, post modern should mean "after right now". The confusion is understandable.

Oh crap.  That's fucking brilliant.

I call dibs on the idea of a post-apocalyptic story wherein the apocalypse took place in like, the year 1000.  or some other historical era. 

What's brilliant?

Also, the idea of an ancient apocalypse would be kinda neat. But, everything was low tech and rural back then that it wouldn't have as much impact as it would now.

Me, I'm brilliant.  For thinking of a non-modern post-apocalypse.  (That post wasn't a reply to your post, it was a reply to my own post.)

Oh, okay. I guess it's better than postmodern non-apocalypse. Oh dear, that reminded me of something hilarious.

XD

I agree completely.

Also, I don't think the apocalypse should happen in 1000. Maybe like the 1880s or slightly earlier, when we are starting to cram ourselves into cities and mess with electricity and stuff. The impact would be more notice-able and steampunk-y.

Hey, whose post-modern post-apocalypse is this? (james, I am joking)

I could go for an 1880s apocalypse. 

"James, I am joking."

I almost feel like a bad person for requiring people to explain when they're joking. Still, I might start working on one after finishing up "Shift", unless you were planning on using the idea.

The key word there was "almost."   (he said, continuing to be amused by the entire conversation.)

What's "Shift?"

Just a game where you play as a member of a clan of humans, all of which have the uncanny ability to take on the form of a certain animal.

In the game, there are three factions:

• An alliance of warrior mages
• A society of thieves and rogues that act as a merchant organization. Known to blockade trade routes and even starve entire cities to get what they want.
• A quasi-religious organization that roams the countryside in giant tank-cities, looking for converts.

You end up in the middle of a conflict between them and have to make a series of tough decisions to ensure the survival of your clan.

The same animal?
 

No, some can turn into wolves, some into ravens, some into bears. Your little sister is unfortunate enough to be gifted with the ability to change into a rabbit. It's not really hereditary either, the ability, I mean.
