Sadly, no. The Ice Flyers (as these monkeys were called) were not intelligent, nor were any poo-flinging proclivities proferred. While one can an assume they did fling poo (they are monkeys, after all), their main special attacks were magic shackles made of ice, and the "Howling Challenge" which was sort of a dick-measuring contest that measured Charisma instead of dicks.
And their wings were feathered, not batlike. Edit: clarity This post has been edited by Garland: Jun 6 2005, 10:00 PM |

Please explain exactly what difference that might entail? Wait, let me think about it some more, maybe it'll come to me. :sleepy: Nope, nadda. So what is the difference? |

Poo-flinging Flying Monkeys will not be in The World is Round 4. Instead, they will be seeded into the ruleset with the first supplemental book, Science is Not Witchcraft.

The difference is that females can participate, even though they don't (and probably shouldn't) have dicks. Duh. |

Pooh Flinging Monkey
Appearing as a standard, un-awakened chimpanzee, the only way to tell the difference is, unfortunetly, when they attack. The Pooh flinging monkey defecates into it's own hand and hurls it's 'poo ball' at their target. The Poo flinger is able to make poo for hours on end - this is where zoologist believe their awakened powers come into play. B Q S C I W E R 5 4 6 - 2/3 2 6 3 INIT: 3 + 1D6 Attacks: 4M - must resist 11M 'toxic' damage to resist puking ones guts out. Powers: Enhanced Physical Attributes (quickness, Strength (For range determination only), Constant poo. Winged Variant: The winged variant of the poo flinging monkey is feared through out the known world, while still rare in urban areas, governments and corps take all measures to keep the Poo flingers where they belong - in the wilderness or the Barrens. Flying Multiplier (5) Additional Power: Enhanced senses (Vision Mag 3) Habitat: Any place Poo Needs to be flung - including the Internet. |

Oh, you were refering to the actual physical appendage, not the figurative one. NM then. |

It was a play on words. I meant it figuratively, and then decided that literally would be much funnier in response to your question.
So... now that my explanation has removed all the humor... |

Yes. Please edit out your last response and replace it with ASCII representations of flying monkeys. Poo or non-poo at your choice.

Dissected, exposed, violated and studied. But we enjoyed doing so. :D

We aren't condemning it without reading a single word. we're condemning it because the south end of north facing horses that put out the releases actually raise more questions than they answer, and when made aware of the problem, do sod all to fix it.

I'm guessing you're in the 2nd group, Snow Fox... There's no need to defend your position on the subject. The SR4 board is full of us doing just that. This thread is just here to remind us that it's just a game. Some of us are hopeful. Some of us are terrified. Some of us like Turkey™. In the end, all we really want are Poo-flinging Monkeys... :D |

Nothing is quite that simple, especially not opinions on SR4, and it's quite disingenuous to try and label everyone in two camps of your choosing.

No, it is easy and entirely accurate to divide people into two distinct groups. There are the people that are Wrong, and then there are the people that realize that SR4 is the Third Coming of Elvis. Forth Coming of Elvis if you want to count the time he popped back in for his lunchbox. |

So they are very effective press releases? A press release is not a news item. It doesn't need to state any facts. A press release is free publicity. The more buzz it creates the better. Your problem seems to be with the saying there is no such thing as bad publicity. |

So now you're saying the FAQs are great because they don't tell us anything worth knowing. Okay.

I don't believe I ever mentioned or quoted anything about FAQ.
Since you brought it up, I think the FAQ update prior to the announcement of the SR4 release was to get people irritated with SR3 rules. Then the SR4 release gets announced, and somewhere in the back of our minds we hope it will fix all these new rulings and rule problems. Underhanded and manipulative? Maybe. Paranoid? Probably, but Fanpro had to have SR4 in the works when they decided to finally do some wish fulfillment and make SR3 products available on PDF. Milking SR3 for some cash when they had already set in motion plans for its obsolescence. However, the backlash that is being voiced makes one wonder if SR4 will share the same fate as New Coke? |

Yeah, I want that cocaine back too. I mean, what good is a drink that calls itself coke and has none in it anyway? |

I think you meant Poo Flinging Monkey. The Pooh Flinging Monkey is its very rare cousin, confined to the deepest jungles of the Hundred Acre Woods. It is distinct in that, during fights against intruders, it throws round, friendly bears with a proclivity for honey. |
