*cracks open a drop beer*

See, the IEs are trying to subvert the cause, dividing us in the confusion of the movement of the thread. But the followers will come, they will find us if they have not already and we will strike back with a drop like they have never seen before, like the world has never experienced.

I am speaking of The Great Dropping.

Beware, Fortune, beware!

Uhm, Brother Trigger, did you find a holy date for The Great Dropping?

And your quest was successful. Good work acolyte.

Nice try, but this movement garbage is no work of mine.

Maybe someone should start a new thread in the main Forum to inform people about this thread's location.

I was going to suggest The Great Dropping takes place on the date corresponding to our holy number 999,or 9/9/09, but then I realized that it was over 2 years off, next I realized how close that was to another date and thought it would be best not to joke about it. So basically I'm going to ask how's next Tuesday? That work for everyone?

Yeah Tuesday is good for me, though only after 4 pm GMT, but I can stay up late as i have Wednesday off.

I think that next tuseday is going to be ok with me too, I can't see anything gettin in the way of The Great Dropping....

Hrm... Tuesday probably isn't very good. I'm raising a cub or a kitten or whatever you call a baby drop bear (private? I don't know) and I tend to drop off around 10pm EST (hah, get it! Drop off!) Wednesdays aren't good either because I've started hitting the bottle by Wednesday.

I have a 6 gallon carboy of the holy elixir currently brewing in my fourth floor apartment.

Unfortunately, the step between a fermented carboy and portable bottles of drop beer is messy and a little wasteful.

Any chance of getting the Drop Beer recipe? We're making a red next, but after that...

Actually, my beer is pretty bad, dropped or otherwise. I can't figure out how to get the yeast to drop out, so it always has a yeasty flavor to it. My wife makes some excellent drop cider though. It's a lot more potent than it tastes, so it really drops on you when you're least expecting it. It is my hope to incorporate her drop cider with my drop beer to make something potent, delicious and that is one letter away from "drop bear". Perhaps if Drop Bears where friends with Drop Spiders or something, her cider would be better received. The most difficult part is working in the holy Eucalyptus. We are considering using Eucalyptus honey to make mead.

(If anyone wants my wife's cider recipe, I'm happy to post it since, like I said, it turned out very, very well. If anyone wants my beer recipe... I'd recommend waiting a few years until it tastes more like beer and less like bread.)

err... I have to work some OT on Tuesday. But since Elder Jray is back, he can cover for me. Nice ta' se ya'.

Tuesdays or Wednesdays are great for me! That is my weekend so that I may worship the Holy Bear with loads of Drop Beer.

I can't on Tuesday (have to bring Drop Bears to Barsaive), but Wednesday is fine. But we're in different time zones, so maybe Brother Trigger can read the thread again and come up with the conclusion that both days are actually Tuesdays?

I just had that idea after some Drop Beers. But I don't see a connection there.

*after partaking of many a Drop Beer*

I can certainly see that both days are Tuesdays now, in fact I am predicting a whole week of Tuesdays so that The Great Droppong can spread from here out and conquer the whole of the world, all on Tuesday!

Just wanted to add that I have scarred yet another PC in game with the appeareance of the Grand Drop bear. The cahracter was traipsing through the outback, all happy to see a cute cuddly little koala, until it turned out to be a cute cuddly koala of drop-death.

That's suprisingly close.

"Ahhh,... how cute.. it's a little beeeeaarr. ahhh..."

PC :I go over to it
GM :It looks back at you. As you make noises at it, it's mouth opens jsut a bit, revealing sharp fang like teeth. You then notice the very long black claws.

"uhhhh...""" PC:back up... slowly

*Cue bloodshed*

Very nice fistandantilus3.0, very nice. Show those pesky PCs that they cannot defeat the most Holy Drop Bears, and that they should join the cause.

Those are joyous tidings Brother Trigger, a full week of Droppings will surely insure our victory.

A full week of Tuesdays....

Perhaps Tuesday should be the Drop Bear holy day or somethin'

Still waiting for a GM to let me play a drop bear shaman. Geased to have to expose me belly to cast of course. And addiction: Drop Beer Neg Quality. Awesome Mentor SPirit.

Aarrrggghhh!!! I'm such a fool!! New Year's Eve would have been perfect for drop bears! Imagine the big sparkly ball in NYC is replaced with a fake, hollow ball full of hungry drop bears! At precisely 12:01am, January 1st, it breaks open and tens or hundreds of the hungry troops fall upon unsuspecting New Yorkers below!

Just wait till the Fourth of July, I already have plans in the works to replace the firweorks here with drop bear launchers so that when people look to the skies for the fireworks they are instead met with the furry fury of my drop bear grade 1 initiates....hopefully a higher grade by then though.

grade 1 NINJA inititiates?

*Mr. Burns*eeeexcelleeeent */Mr. Burns*

So, would Care Bears that have been inflicted with HMHVV be converted into Scare Bears?

If they got religion, would they become Prayer Bears?

And if they were into the 14th century would they be Faire Bears?

A question for the elders, is there any relationship between drop bears and gummi bears? After all, gummi bears bounce here and there and everywhere, while drop bears drop here and there and everywhere. Is gummi bear juice the solution to our long reclimb times?

We could design some sort of collar to release it when they launched an attack.

Well, my squad out here have devised a very simple and low-tech means of overcoming the 'reclimb the tree issue'. We simply attached short lengths of bungee cord the drop bears so they hit the target then get pulled back up into their trees to do it again.

Yo-Yo Bears.

I see now Fortune, I come up with the bungee system and it's stupid. However, when Trigger comes up with it you roll with it,support it even. Knowing it has design flaws you try to encourage our new brother into folly. Bad IE, Bad.

Honestly I thought more of you.

You've won this round, elf. Remember this, as my Tanooki samurai drop tankers are overwhelming your defenses, and you feel that moment of shock which signals the Thumpening.

*blink*

Everything's different!..




It's cold. And there are wolves after me.

Does putting on my copy of Floyd's Ummagumma while plopping a stuffed koala bear on top of my CD player help?
