Well, just about done with a Cowl post slated two days after the riots, a certain Lyger will want to be paying attention if he wants some leads to capture the rapscallion.

@Athinar

Weren't you waiting on a post from a certain "Director?" :P

[Athinar]

@nitemare shapeWell, I wasn't compelled to do so. I could've posted at any time. However, I thought (with my own free will) that you were initiating it. So I waited. Thus, you have now power over my mind-

Angel:"Would you kindly please SHUT THE HELL UP!??!?!|

Me:".......... 'Kay."

[nitemare shape]

I'll have my segment to you in a little bit, I ended up passing out last night and then I had some errands today, but I'm working on it now for you. I'll send it to your PM box in just a bit

[nitemare shape]

So I got that to you, sorry for the miscommunication, apparently we both thought the other was going to kick that off, lol. I'm also going to be working on some stuff for Kyle, another Forsaken post etc.

Eh, Bioshock...it's a nice quote, but ultimately the series has turned into "Why centralism is the only option / Why the horseshoe horseshit theory is true, probably".

I mean, I enjoy the characters and sci-fi concepts they employ, but I'm never going to forgive them for how the presented the Vox Populi in Bioshock: Infinite. Like, why set up the most reactionary, racist, classist, theocratic regime you could think of, but then make the anarchists revolting against the regime the bad guys?!

@Space Communist

You never did mention if your PC's apartment was within the same building as Racheli and Justine... Both are in Sherman's square.

Well, I don't view Bioshock Columbia Infinite to be in the same class as the first two. Rapture forevah.

However, Bioshock Columbia does have a good beginning, however, they do have a total mind-screw of an ending, including Che' Guerva the Vox Populi, but mainly the lighthouse, city and a man.

@Fallenreaper

Well, the location of Charlotte's apartment was vague enough to work as the one being fought in.

Maybe.

Who the hell even knows.

@Athinar

Oh I agree 100% that twist at the end was a pretty huge mindscrew, probably on par with the twist in Knights of the Old Republic. Not only that, but the story and characters overall were phenomenal. Still, to me at least, that doesn't change the fact that they were blatantly pushing the horseshit theory. I mean, Booker already distrusts the Vox when he first meets them because...why? They're revolutionaries fighting against a racist theocracy, why the hell would you distrust them? Oh yeah, that's right, Booker worked for the Pinkertons, of course he would distrust them for no reason.

[Athinar]

@Space Communist

Also, the Pinkertons kinda sorta put down people like the Vox Populi (worker's unions).

Well, to be fair to poor lil' horseshoe theory, there is one valid point. Everyone's political views overlap at one point or another, and that's what gets shit done in countries of today, people agreeing on the least offensive option. (And the horseshoe theory is just that; a theory. It's on paper only, it has yet to manifest; like black holes, there's some sliver of evidence they exist, yet people extrapolate from there.)

((Though black holes are infinitely cooler than political/ethical theory.))

I think I get why most people are deeply offended by the horseshoe theory. People view their political views as the 'morally right' way of doing things, and are offended when they are associated with their 'mortal enemies' or polar opposites.

(Note: Me trying to be objective here, emphasis on trying. I agree with you totally, Space. Even if you are a filthy pinko left-wing Marxis-)

[Athinar]

I love these sorts of socio-political/philosophical arguments. I prefer to take an objective standpoint(cause I like you people and I don't want to alienate anyone.)

@Athinar

I'm usually the spectator in this event. Btw, how's your arena match going Athinar? Having fun with it?

[Athinar]

@Fallenreaper What arena match-

Oh.

@Athinar

If helps, I think he's out of net until the 23rd currently.

[Athinar]

@Fallenreaper Yeh, that helps.... somewhat. I still feel bad, though.

All you can do is apologies, make a post for him to reply to and try not to have it happen again. Ask him to mention you so many days if needed. I sometimes need it as I do the same thing.
