Development Team wanted / Wouldn't this be great / Can anyone write my term paper

Martin Turner

We get a lot of similar posts on this board, so I thought I would save some time for everyone by posting a generic thread that you can multiple choice, rather than having to create your own.

Here are the choices - just mark A, B, C, D, E etc

A I've just started playing EVx and I've played through all four missions. Now I need something else to do. Will someone make me a plugin with 200 new ships, 95 new planets and four more missions. This would be the coolest thing ever and I bet no-one else has thought of this.

B Does anybody want to be on my development team for a new ETC (Extra-Total Conversion). I need six graphic designers, four programmers, nine story writers, three marketing people and four webdesigners. To save time, though, I won't be needing any beta-testers. I will divide the people into teams who will compete against each other to create the plugin. They will be required to submit their work to me every morning, and I will choose the best. My contribution to the ETC is the description ETC (copyright - me!) and the title. I have not thought of the title yet, but it will be the coolest ever. Anybody taking part will get a PERS.

C Wouldn't it be great if you could have a ship that fired rockets and turned pink when it was unhappy. When is someone going to make this?

D I have a competition. The competition is this. You must make a plugin, and send it to me. I will then say whether it's any good or not, and write things about what I think of you on this board. The prize is the Cudos of me saying that you are tolerable.

E When is EV4 coming out? Matt Burch should definitely make it multi-player network for Unix and BeOS. And it should be free, because I've already registered EVx and I'm saving up to buy a go-kart. Other features which he must include are full 3d play with those special glasses, vibration controls, and he should replace the gambling game in the bar with Cluedo, because this would be much more realistic.

F I bet I'm the oldest person on this board. I am thirteen and a half.

G EVx is so unrealistic. I mean, I was watching Star Trek TNG last night and EVx hyper-jumping is nothing like the warp drive. And my brother is studying media-studies with electronic kit building at college, and he says that it's unrealistic. Someone should fix it.

H Is it possible to emulate the EVx editor everyone is talking about on an Etch-a-sketch? Where can I download the software, or can someone come round to my house (I live in Greenland) and install it for me.

More a sort of gentle irony.

But enough of that, let's not mention the rugby.

You know, making a ship that fired rockets and turned pink when angry would be a good mrxak challenge... hmmm.... angry pink ships....

And what is this about rugby?

Is it just me, or do I detect a bit of pent-up frustration and biting sarcasm? Just a bit, mind you :p. Nothing overly dramatic.

I hope that I've been at least minimally tolerable. If not, I hope my 'project' will smooth things up :).

(edit) Sorry, I've always envied British humor. I've just never been good at it (maybe because I'm not British).

Oh, and Masamune, when he says 'unhappy', I took that to mean 'sad'. Do you think that he really meant 'angry'? I could be wrong, of course...

Australia will be versus England in the Rugby World Final.

I expect a very boring match. England are well known for a delaying and kicking game.

You just mentioned the rugby! You're bloody flamebaiting us Aussies... and you reap what you sow, so:

The final is Johnnie Wilkinson Vs Australia
Australia has more men on the field than Johnnie Wilkinson
Always kicking and never going for tries is wussy style rugby
We beat the Kiwis, and we're bloody well... well... we're. Um...

Runs off to kill Johnnie Wilkinson

So what's your term paper supposed to be about, how many words/pages, when do you want it by, and do you want it to turn pink or orange when it's unhappy?

We'll see. It'll be Australia's rugby (which has spirit, life and passion as well as skill) versus the clinical and rather cowardly kicking game of England.

Hey at least lets leave th Rugby aside until AFTER the game

Oh, Masamune the Rugd Cs on Saturday, thats what we're talking about. And its Australia v England (if you hadn't figured that out). Of course Australia is going to win because we play real Rugby (albeit not as well as NZ and King Carlos but better than England who perfer to go for the drop goal).

On topic I would have to say I think B is the best
Though D is quite good too.

Bloody aussies...

England all the way, I didn't even bother supporting the kiwis this year because they have such a sh*t team and england was doing well for once in my lifetime so I thought that I would support them...

BTW, Azdara this could turn into a flame war so everyone, lets drop the rugby... Until the games over anyway...

I personally thought that England played a very good game against the french, and I also thought that is very good tactics so **** you all.

Martin: Great post, great ideas, someone should make these.
