New Smilies Alert

livius drusus · #1 02-11-2005, 06:54 PM

For Ymir's blood and anyone else who has missed new arrivals, I've decided to make my 5000th post the OP of a new smilies alert thread. Honestly, I'm not sure which is more pathetic: my post count or the forum smiley count, but either way, it makes sense that they should dance this waltz together.

First, some fair commentary on both the obscene counts: :eyebrow3:

And now, a little something special for Ymir's blood collection: :cthulhu3:

Keep an eye on this thread for news of any future additions. Thank you.

A star-nose mole!

You really shouldn't have! :wink:

You know me. I just can't stop with the giving.

What about a rooster smiley? When I posted Happy Year of the Rooster I had to settle for a chicken smiley instead. It was sad.

Pathetic??!! Pathetic??!! Please allow this drone to assure you that having far and away the best smiley collection of any board on the net significantly adds to our collective's perfection.

As for achieving 5,000 posts, in my case, "pathetic" may be an apt descriptive term. I believe Q explains my situation best:

Nevertheless, in your case, Captain, 5,000 posts demonstrates your dedication to our welfare.

You are an excellent drone. Perhaps someday you will rise to the level of counterpart.

Yeah, that's it. That's the ticket! I bring order to chaos, donchaknow.

I will indeed, and thanks to you (and the lovely Rosie who along with "seven" is a keyword for her creations), I have several new dance partners.

Unlikely, Captain, yet she is a worthy role model. It is worth the attempt.

Agreed...when I'm not terrified by it. He is like a diety of which Chakotey once spoke: Coyote...and Coyote always waits.

A function, Captain, which ex-drones immediately recognize and appreciate.

Thank you, Captain. I also find them asthetically pleasing, but can't take credit for any of them. If I may add credit where credit is actually due, a young woman known as "ithildin" is the creator of :fdragon:

Heartbreaking, even. Thankfully, I have now remedied this painful oversight with as proud a cock as anyone could ask for: :rooster:

Oh, and another classic bird of world-wide reknown: :foghorn:

Farren · #9 02-12-2005, 04:21 PM

Love the cock!

Congrats on your V-barth post, liv.

Do we have a list of the cool special keywords?

I have added her biological and technological distinctiveness to our own.

I figured you would. Will the version with the big ol' blunt hanging out his beak will be forthcoming shortly?

We don't, but that's an excellent idea. I'll see what I can put together.

copiae · #16 02-12-2005, 11:00 PM

Congrats on your 5k post count, liv.

Lets see... I currently have 82 posts, and and I post at the rate of .40 posts per day. Calculating milestones based upon this average:

100 posts: 45 days (.12 years)
1000 posts: 2295 days (6.28 years)
2000 posts: 4795 days (13.12 years)
5000 posts: 12295 days (33.66 years)

... Heh, at this rate, I'll be joining you in a little while :eek:

.

livius drusus · #17 02-12-2005, 11:04 PM

Good lord, copiae. You need to speed it up, because if I'm still running this forum when i'm 65... :shudder:

Crumb · #18 02-12-2005, 11:05 PM

I guess you better start posting more silly and useless posts that add nothing to the thread, but still add to your post count.

Like I do.

Skep · #19 02-12-2005, 11:21 PM

After seeing the hovertext of the Can-Can smilie (which seems to imply that I made it), I went ahead and made one of my own.

Yay me!

And look!

Well done, Captain.

Locutus agrees.
