Re: Almost an Allegory

Thin beams of light bleed through the shutters, a particular one, revealing the torrent of dust that floated in the air, illuminates my yellow-stained teeth as my face contorts in the facial spasm of a yawn; or so I imagined the sight. My eyelids felt leaden, gilt in the exhaustion accrued during la...

Re: The musings of a man

I don't want to beat a dead horse, but this situation is similar to an ancient Greek debate. If a tree falls in the forest with no one there to hear it, does it still make a sound? Common sense will tell you that just because no one is present, the laws of physics are still in effect. However, no ma...

Re: The musings of a man

Ohh man.... I was just ranting a lil' bit, but now you've gone and dun it. *sigh* Looks like this is going to turn into a philosophical debate. I am by no means attempting to disprove all absolutes. In fact, I am more interested in proving that everything in existence, so-to-speak, is paradoxical by...

Re: Almost an Allegory (OOC)

I attempted to garner some modicum of interest by soliciting in the "Roleplayers Wanted" area, but I received no response. And because there is a rule against double-posting, I can't bump the thread. >.> Selothi, do you have any ideas about prospective methods of recruiting new members? I ...

The musings of a man

[[ Dunno. I just picked up a pen and started writing. Sometime afterward I decided I would type it up and post in a few places... So, here it is. Feel free to comment. ]] There is only one absolute: there are no absolute; everything is a paradox. There are no paradoxes; a paradox is simply the resul...

Re: Looking for a 1vs1 match

The rolling plains seemed to stretch endlessly into the horizon, a seemingly infinite distance. The monotony and sheer featureless landscape would blur together, not only confusing his senses at times but also hurting his eyes. Though it was not unbearable, the heat also contributed to the unpleasan...

Ok. In that case post whenever you like. Remember to include your characters description when you do, though.

Looking for a 1vs1 match

I am looking for a fight with a seasoned fighter. I have never fought on this forum before, but I am no novice in terms of technical skill. Here are my rules: ~Standard no god modding, power play, etc. rules ~Writes in para; no one or two liners. The setting will be a rocky, barren plain. It stretch...

Re: The Meaning of Life...

[Off Topic: Sorry about the Hiatus, but I have been absent from Gateway for a few months.

Re: Almost an Allegory (OOC)

Well, Almost an Allegory has taken a long, long hiatus. Anybody besides me feel that it is time for it to be revived?

I want to see this story evolve, at the very least to the point where the plot has become apparent, because it is awesome. The idea behind this RP is awesome to.

VIVA LA ALLEGORY!

Re: A rather mixed view

Ok, I think I might have some answers for you. Just for reference I am an existential agnostic; go figure. Science is as much based on faith as any religion. Science is only viewed as concrete because certain outcomes can be reproduced time and time again. The funny thing is, just because you find s...

Re: Knight versus Samurai

The Knight would win by default, unfortunately. Feudal Japan never saw metal armor in the same right as Medieval Europe, and so Japanese weaponry was not geared towards piercing iron shells. A Samurai only wore cloth, leather and bamboo armor and wielded a blade, the katana, that is perfectly design...

Re: Define Love

The modern connotation of the word "love" defies the purpose of the word in its truest sense. We have other words, desire, lust, like, infatuation, etc., for the innumerable impostor emotions. I can like a flower, a specific food, or an activity, but love is not what I feel towards these t...

Re: The Meaning of Life...

Ahh, I know that I am violating my own rules here by posting a reply, but I wanted to point out an error. I, in deed, already stated that my opinion of life was that it had no purpose. :P Maybe you just missed it amongst the longer, more boring sections. I will quote it. I think it seems likely that...

Re: How did you come up with your username?

Completely random. I'm rather good with cryptic, meaningless combination's of words. Strangely one of my account names on another site is Souless Intrigue...bleh. They just sound cool, I suppose.

Re: Would you do it? Why? Ethical dilemna.

Enough. I never meant for this to get out of control, and certainly not to offend you. I meant that I was exasperated and tired of arguing with you, nothing else. If you want to continue PM me. Let us take this away from the board, before another GM is less lenient.
