Is that a bomber? I never would have got that. Going on from Rah's point there can't be much more you can do to exert your masculinity than use an effeminate pig with a soft spot for Ming as your avatar.

Heck if I had been pegged as ms piggy in War4's post, I still would have gone with the joke. Anything for a few laughs (and that avatar will generate some). Let the OTers and others make fun of it. Iit seems to have generated extra interest and humor in MP.
THANK GOD WE HAVE IT. (has anyone checked out the ctpII forum recently) nough said.

RAH
Heck my avatar looks like a transvestite feather dancer, AND an ugly one at that.

That it does

I hope everyone gets as good of a laugh out of it as I do. I'm not worried about a few jibes.

Too bad you're the only hold out.

Find a picture of Ms Piggy as the Wagnerian Valkyrie and he'd probably use it…

Hmmm... not making any progress on the rules for this historic event. We really need to do that before the muppets fall out of style

So has this game been declared terminally ill ?
Pulling the proverbial plug?
R.I.P. ?

I'd be interested... but you probably want to start FAR earlier than I. I won't be able to play until at least 9:30 central time... and that's assuming everybody goes to bed at a reasonable time... sigh...

Kibitzing...

IIRC at the start of this thread were thoughts to the effect of different rules for the Momentous Muppet IP Experience. And after a month, all I see is rah rules.

Shake it up, boys! How about doing a flip-flop ?

1x production, 2x movement

...just a thought. You may now proceed to abuse it and tell how Rah rules are the be-all end-all for any game worthy of your time.

Bah! 2X movement is the worst thing about 2X.
Stinking Dips and the people that live by them.

Ahhh. I feel better now.
How about No Rules; other than like Piggy and Kermy find each other to team up, Horse and I, and so on?

Or not.

Thanks JR for showing the value of any Rules set.
No, RAH rules is not the end all or necessarily the best.
In fact there are many people that would never even consider using them.
But for any rules set, you either agree or you don't. But you don't spend weeks argueing over ever detail before a game can start. And you can continue to modify a rule set over time to suit the group's needs.

RAH
This game is obviously DOA>
