Ah. Had the wrong box checked in my profile. Try it now, Mackay.

mathgrant · A very tilted cell member

Sent a long time ago.

I think I'd like to mod next, if it's all right with y'all.

The Cruciverbalist · Lucrative Britches

Penny says what my selection is? (4)

Mackay · Saviour of Spiders

OK, I just found out kazoooish is actually Veg...

I was wondering about that. So anyway, I've received all my choices, but I have to wait on replies from those who killed kazoooish. Shouldn't be too long.

Vegtable2001 · Immobile Member

BAH, it's not as if i'm trying to play as 2 people like macnut. The email in it's profile leads to the real kazooish's email.

I know, I know.

*comforts veg*

Still one more choice left.

BTW, mathgrant, I would be glad for you to take this responsibility off my hands.

mathgrant · A very tilted cell member

Just to make sure you understood me, I meant I'd like to mod RAF IV. I hope no one disagrees

Mackay · Saviour of Spiders

I understood, mathgrant.

Still waiting for the last choice. 24 hours from this post (approximately) before the person in question suicides.

Mackay · Saviour of Spiders

Duphrates levels his gun at the unsuspecting Vegtable2001, and fires. Unfortunately, he had never actually used a gun before, and was holding it backwards.
Duphrates dead

kevinatilusa shoots the broad side of a nearby barn, and is miraculously left out of all the violence. He lives. In related news, the barn has declared that it will be pursuing legal action.

When Chuck sees this, he thinks to himself, "well, if he can do it, so can I!" and shoots the air. Chuck is promptly and mercilessly gunned down by The Cruciverbalist and MacadamiamaN.
Chuck dead

Leonidas and mathgrant, upon witnessing the carnage, decide they can't take it any longer, and end it all.

Go vegt!

Mackay · Saviour of Spiders

Waiting on one more choice.....

Mackay · Saviour of Spiders

Vegt decides not to risk killing this round, and shoots the air. He survives.

kevinatilusa levels his gun at the lawyer of the barn he shot in the previous round (read: air) and kills him. Heh. Stupid lawyer scum. Unfortunately he is then gunned down by MacadamiamaN.
kevinatilusa dead

The Cruciverbalist wonders why he has been completely ignored this round. In fact, he feels so left out that he wanders off into the injured barn and shoots himself.

Well well well...... Vegt versus Mac. Should prove to be very, very interesting.

Send choices, please.

dethwing · DeTheeThaw

The ultimate showdown.

MacadamiamaN · Intentionally left blank

...or is it?

Vegtable2001 · Immobile Member

Go vegt!

The Cruciverbalist · Lucrative Britches

Go The Cruciverbalist! Oh, wait. Crap. Never mind.

Mackay · Saviour of Spiders

LOL. You guys (mac and vegt) want to send your choices? Or would you rather string it out for a while.....?

Either way, I'm feeling kind of unpopular and I'd like some *ahem* EMAIL. Ta!

Vegtable2001 · Immobile Member

I had to pester Mac to send the first time

I'll think a bit on it and send in a choice by the end of the day.

And the Moderator looks on in sadness as a peace-loving MacadamiamaN skips off into a flowery meadow, only to be gunned down by the evil Vegtable2001.

Congratulations Vegt, you are the last vegetable standing.

MacadamiamaN dead, Vegtable2001 wins.

MacadamiamaN · Intentionally left blank

Go artichokes!

Mackay · Saviour of Spiders

Postscript: (penned by MacadamamiaN) It was a gloomy afternoon. Though veg had won the game, he still felt a fear inside him that would not die down. He sat in the dining room of his mansion atop the hill. He could not think; he could not even know what to order for dinner. He looked down at his 20 foot long cherry wood table, staring into nothingness, when out of nowhere came his butler. It startled him, but he sooned calmed down and asked for some rice with mashed potatoes. The butler said "yes, sir," and left. He was not hungry, he did not want to eat, but he didn't want the presence of the old man in the same room with him anyway. 5 minutes passed. No word from the butler. "Good," he thought, "the old man must have croaked." He was about to get up from his chair, when all of a sudden, BOOM! Out came the chef! The chef had in his hands a plate. "Oh, great, food," Veg thought.
The chef placed the plate on the table in front of him, opened the lid, and BOOM! (for lack of a better sound effect), ARTICHOKES! Veg leaped back from within his chair. "ARTICHOKES! AHHHH!" The chef smiled and laughed as he walked away into the abyss of darkness behind him.
Veg ran away as fast as he could but couldn't escape for the artichokes ran after him! at a faster pace! "Oh no! This is it!" thought veg - but that was only the beginning. for ahead of him, in the mile-long hallway of his large gloomy mansion, lay the happy knocking dance! Veg caught sight of the happy knocking dance and was scared out of his mind! But his fate was near, and the dance took him over...

THE END

Vegtable2001 dead, victim of the accursed "happy knocking dance"
...or, at least, suffering a fate worse than death...

I hope you all enjoyed the game!

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! *Screams in terror*

Wow. That was the weirdest anticlimax I've ever encountered.

So, would the "unhappy knocking dance" be better?

Mackay · Saviour of Spiders

Ask mac - he wrote it!

mathgrant · A very tilted cell member

Thanks.

ALPHABET RAF!!!!

A, B, C, D, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X, Y, and Z all shoot E, but E shot himself. E wins!!!
My name has no E, so it's dead, bah!
That was fun. Mackay, you can do the next one.

MacadamiamaN · Intentionally left blank

Sometimes I ask myself, why write an anticlimax for a game that I'm not even modding? Then I think back upon the day when I went fishing with my dogs in the lake, and I drowned them, because they were barking and scaring away the fish, and then I went fishing some more and caught one of them! He was still alive! Sure, he died within a few minutes, but boy, that was fun.
