Also, I'm 24.

#401 by Veteran Disciple777 - 10/28/2003 2:46:21 PM

OK, let me change her name then to Our Holy Carielf Lady of the Blessed Software.

#402 by Veteran Theoden of Rohan - 10/28/2003 2:46:59 PM

You're not 24...you're ageless. All deities are ageless.

#403 by Veteran Gerakken - 10/28/2003 2:59:42 PM

I don't want to ruin anyone's mental image of me.

It is not the visage of the Blessed Lady that keeps the code demons at bay, but Her hard work and the faith of Her followers.

#404 by Veteran Disciple777 - 10/28/2003 3:01:17 PM

OK 24 let me guess, 5.9, blond with glasses and weights 115. Close?

#405 by Veteran Killa Koala - 10/28/2003 5:14:28 PM

I have to put the CariElf prayer here (Kyp Durron), for posterity.

CariElf guide us. CariElf teach us. CariElf protect us. In your light we thrive. In your wisdom we are humbled.

#406 by Senator CariElf - 10/28/2003 6:00:29 PM

That comes from the Sword of Truth series, if anyone is looking for a good read.

#407 by Veteran TheQuack - 10/28/2003 7:07:40 PM

You don't have to throw away your old business cards.

CariElf
Game Developer To The Stars

Easy to add. Gives them a bit of oomph. People always say things like resumes and business cards should be distinctive. Then, people won't be quite so surprised when you change it to "Our Lady of Software" on the next batch.

Who knows? Tell Frogboy you've been offered a job as Mel Gibson's personal game developer. Maybe he'll give you a raise.

Ah...

Weary of politics, the former Jedi aimlessly cruises the threads of the Metaverse. His Jedi Starfighter finds its way to the blessed sun of Skowbo. Seeing a familiar ship in orbit, he opens the communications channel to say hello...

And hears a PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION - with NUMBERS, no less - of a goddess! The SACRILEGE! To quantify the immutable perfection of the Powers Beyond with a height and weight estimate?!? What's next - eye color? Fashion tips? NAIL POLISH COLORS!?!!??

Deep within his mind, years of training snap like a twig trying to hold up an airborne Volkswagen. The Dark Side rages within him. THIS INFIDEL WILL PAY FOR HIS DESECRATIONS. With determination, he removes his flight helmet and puts on the other one - the shiny black one with the breath mask.

A voice sounds, quietly but firmly, within the recesses of his mind. "This is not the way, Obi-Wan. I bring enlightenment and happiness. Destruction carried out in my name brings me no joy, regardless of its motives. Besides, Mayito carries much chocolate and Mountain Dew on his ship."

Grimly, Darth Kenobi shakes his head and slams the throttles to full. "Sorry, toots. I've been playing the nice guy for months now. It's time to flip the coin over. It's time for some payback."

The Starfighter shudders to a halt, its engines still screaming madly. "I said, CHOCOLATE and MOUNTAIN DEW!"

The Sith meekly pulls back on the throttle levers. "Well...OK...but can I shoot him later for defiling your temple with such horrid blasphemies?"

A pause. "Let's see how good his poetry is first."

Join the CariElf Fan Club? Truly, the greatest and most prestigious of all Empires. Very well, I accept.

#412 by Citizen Aeddy 80 - 10/29/2003 4:05:39 AM

... come and join the silly empire

#413 by Veteran Killa Koala - 10/29/2003 5:12:33 AM

That comes from the Sword of Truth series, if anyone is looking for a good read.

Who would the author be? Doesn't sound familiar...

Good on ya, Obi. And did you know I was once a Terro Star Vice President in the Holy Order? I was. Ask MM77. Unfortunately... well anyway, that's another story.

... come and join the silly empire

Aeddy 80, that seems apropos of nothing. Unless you are just being silly?

#414 by Avatar KarmaGirl - 10/29/2003 1:08:34 PM

After reading this thread, all I can envision is a group of you guys dressed in monk robes following Cari around chanting and smacking your heads with large books filled with GalCiv code.......Cari, of course, is ignorant to the followers and just keeps strolling along drinking her Mountain Dew slurpy.

#415 by Veteran Disciple777 - 10/29/2003 1:21:00 PM

I think that she is well aware of the crowd around her, but she is the Godess, she doesnot need to bother with the crowd she has to take care of rewriting the Secret Code of the Metaverse.

#416 by Veteran Theoden of Rohan - 10/29/2003 1:39:37 PM

You should join in, KarmaGirl! The headaches from smacking the head don't last long!

#417 by Veteran Samurai Ben - 10/29/2003 1:45:40 PM

And the problem with this IS?

C'mon, it doesn't hurt nearly as much as pounding your head on a desk - something you've probably had some experience with yourself...

#418 by Veteran Disciple777 - 10/29/2003 1:45:58 PM

If she Joins then we will have to give her a new name, I propose Our Holy Lady of the Troublesome Hardware. What do you think?

you may have a point there......

#420 by Veteran Killa Koala - 10/29/2003 5:18:22 PM

I sit at my desk, stunned.

It is like a revelation from above... THERE IS MORE THAN ONE GODDESS! Does this mean there is a pantheon of Goddesses and Gods out there THAT WE KNOW NOTHING ABOUT? Are they all children of Momzilla? Can we divine the truth from such limited facts? Do we care about the truth? Or just go with whatever makes us feel good?

And yippee, I got the next post after Our Holy Lady of the Troublesome Hardware!

#421 by Veteran TheQuack - 10/29/2003 7:13:43 PM

Can we divine the truth from such limited facts? Do we care about the truth? Or just go with whatever makes us feel good?

I like option three. It's very enlightened.

I wonder if "Our Holy Lady of the Troublesome Hardware" knows what she's walked into...

#422 by Avatar KarmaGirl - 10/30/2003 11:44:33 AM

I've been around since the OS/2 days (over 8 years).... I think I can handle it......maybe

Matter of fact, I have an odd connection with GalCiv. I made some of the landscapes for the original GalCiv I for OS/2. Pretty mind boggling, huh?

#423 by Citizen DarkHobbit - 10/30/2003 1:07:29 PM

413 by Veteran Killa Koala - Who would the author be? Doesn't sound familiar...

Terry Goodkind is the author of the series.

It is always sort of scary when the programmers are the sanest of the inmates here. I did enough in college to know how warped they are.

Now I just get to curse databases, VB, and hardware/installation problems. Cari, are you a fan of the UserFriendly strips? Recently had a couple you would probably appreciate.

OH ... How I LOVE to serve the GODESSES and GODS.

BUT! I MUST KNOW.

Poems, yes or no

G.C. AFTER HOURS yes or no

G.C. BEFORE HOURS yes or no

Include or Exclude someone from STARDOCK in STORIES yes or no

???
