Sudhir

I was asking how you became moderator?

KitFox

7:28 PM

Yeah. That explains how it works.

simchona

@Sudhir Stop being thick and read the damn post.

Sudhir

@simchona:Don't use my name. I didn't like.

simchona

@Sudhir It's a reply.

Sudhir

Its give me a notification in my system.

Its sound is weird.

simchona

And thus, you have seen how chat works. You can mute it.

Sudhir

7:36 PM

Congratulation @simchona

I didn't know that you have won the 2012 elections.

That's why you have changed.

simchona

Changed?

Sudhir

I mean you are more serious towards your duty.

KitFox

Sim's always been serious. She's got the highest flag count on all of EL&U.

Sudhir

Oh! great.

She is very intelligent.

KitFox

How do you figure? Have you read her treatises?

Sudhir

7:43 PM

Yes.

KitFox

Which ones?

Sudhir

Some posts.

and answers of questions.

KitFox

Oh. I thought you meant her academic works.

Sudhir

Barrie England doesn't participated in the elections?

KitFox

He might have. He has the Quorum badge.

Sudhir

7:47 PM

Feeling sleepy

KitFox

Oh, but no Constituent. So I guess not.

Sudhir

catch you tomorrow.

Bye

Bye.

I'm laughing.

Glad to hear it.

7:51 PM

trying to stop the tea from snorting out my nose.

KitFox

I just finished mine.

Mitch

wait, can you snort out?

KitFox

No.

Cerberus

Well, well.

KitFox

But I figured you meant that the act of snorting caused tea to come out.

Mitch

7:53 PM

well, not you in particular...is that sayable. What's the verb for liquid being shot out of one's nose when laughing too hard?

KitFox

You want scones with that tea?

@Mitch I don't know.

Mitch

Actually, tea and scones are hardly necessary.

KitFox

I like snerkle as an all-purpose noise of that ilk.

@Mitch Suit yourself.

simchona

Is it safe for me to come out now?

Mitch

I was going through the transcript. that's why I laughed. still, I think puerility seems to be the cause.

safe.

for now.

simchona

7:55 PM

Phew.

She doesn't have any problem, I already asked her once.

headdesk

Cerberus

@Mitch That is no doubt part of it...but come on.

Mitch

face palm

"Dude...come on"

I've done the head to desk thing. It kinda hurts.

KitFox

Wimp.

Mitch

also, I forgot where the scones are.

KitFox

I hid them, that's why. I'm not sharing them with anyone!

Mitch

7:59 PM

I'm scrounging in the crumbs under my desk.

KitFox

Hahaha! Now I have the keys to the kingdom!

Cerberus

What was that!

Mitch

well..ha ha..not much of a kingdom.

Cerberus

The scone kingdoms seem empty.

KitFox

@Mitch Must have been your MySpace account then.

Cerberus

8:01 PM

I want to see a picture of Mitch!

KitFox

It wasn't a picture.

Cerberus

OK.

Mitch

found the crumbs.

just ate them.

KitFox

Damn it. fires nameless cleaning lady, hires new one

At least you'll never find the donuts.

hordes donuts

Now I must commute. Later!

Cerberus

Bye!

Mitch

8:09 PM

WTH. you have donuts? and you didn't say anything?

that's not right.

@KitFox you mean the South African maid who didn't fix the crooked picture?

@KitFox ha ha. I've heard of MySpace.

Cerberus

Uhh those aren't donuts...

Mitch

Did I kill all conversations? Say something inappropriate? I could say something -more- inappropriate.

Cerberus

I'm so sorry.

Mitch

@Cerberus oh shit, I just had one.

Cerberus

...

I suggestion 911.

2 hours later…

WendiKidd

9:55 PM

@KitFox ....you mean 'hoards', right?

;)

MετάEd

10:07 PM

@WendiKidd "Herds".

KitFox

10:18 PM

@WendiKidd No. You mean, you've never heard of the hordes donuts, who terrorize the Front Steppes?

WendiKidd

@KitFox o.o Uh...no?

KitFox

Yeah. Well.

nods knowingly

WendiKidd

Haha

Cerberus

Hi.

If you liked Master of Magic, support the upcoming Worlds of Magic!

kickstarter.com/projects/304725524/…

Their Kickstarter campaign is going strong.

Damn, all the doughnuts are gone!

WendiKidd

@Cerberus The game looks really cool! Some of their rewards are redundant though. It'll say "Previous level, PLUS the same thing we added in the previous level!" It does that 3 or 4 times, doesn't really make sense.

Cerberus

@WendiKidd Yeah, I didn't get that either.

Too bad the 9-pound tier is already full...

Why do people make limited tiers for immaterial rewards?

Have you played Master of Magic?

WendiKidd

@Cerberus To get more money--not the 12-pound one is exactly the same, just 3 pounds more. Maybe that's why. "500 people get this for cheap! after that, pay us more"

I haven't played it, but this game looks pretty neat!
