RWL: 101

[Genevieve]

Hi everyone, welcome to my first RWL tutorial. Please post below to mark your attendance.

This series will focus not so much on winning the game, but more about getting the most joy out of the game and the people that play it.

One of the most enjoyable aspects of this game is the social aspect. Many people here know that annoying General Volkov is one of the simplest joys in this world, so I will demonstrate how to do so now with an actual example.


Dan says
Are you joined up yet?

Lucy says
yeah

Dan says
As who?

Lucy says
it's a secret!

Dan says
Oh pah
Like I'll tell anyone

Lucy says
pfft you would tell everyone

Dan says
Yeah, right, the guy who kept the secret of Holby's trillions of cash for 3 months is going to run around blabbing
While prosecuting a fake war, I might add

Lucy says
yeah but probably you like him better than me

Dan says
No way, I like you more, your posts are far more entertaining
Besides, it was your cash too, no?

Lucy says
aww thanks haha. yeah well i made half of it!

Dan says
See
I can keep secrets
So, spill

Lucy says
nope

Dan says
Bah, no fun
Bet I can guess
If I guess right, will you tell me?

Lucy says
probably
it's not really a secret. i just like teasing you haha

Dan says
LOL
Anticlockwise?

Lucy says
you got me!

Dan says
Heh
Really?

Lucy says
no, not really


Dan says
You suck
lol
Mokkan?

Lucy says
you got me!

Dan says
Unknown Quantity?

Lucy says
yep, that's me

Dan says
Oh shush, tell the truth

Lucy says
lol. why do you wanna know?
this is fun

Dan says
Because I like to see the names people pick out
It interests me

Lucy says
well here's a clue: my name is the best

Dan says
The best one is Subtle Grace
But I do not think that is you

Lucy says
why not?

Dan says
Because it doesn't sound like a Lucy name
Dead Cat Bounce is also good
But also doesn't sound like a Lucy name

Lucy says
what defines a lucy name?

Dan says
It's not definable, just a feeling

Lucy says
ok. I'm The Purple Dragon
as a tribute to the real Purple Dragon, my all time hero

Dan says
LOL
Really?>

Lucy says
really

Dan says
See, that sounds like something Lucy would name herself, because it's clever and kinda subtle
Like Jona Vark

Lucy says
that's a song
but i liked it because it was clever
and i'm not actually the purple dragon
did you actually believe that?

Dan says
It would still be a Lucy name
But no, I did not believe you

Lucy says
i'm Hounds of Ulster

Dan says
... there is no Hounds of Ulster

Lucy says
oh

Dan says
You aren't even playing, are you?

Lucy says
lol
yes
i'm just not logged in because then you'll see who i am

Dan says
So, yes, you are playing, or yes you aren't playing?

Lucy says
yes i am

Dan says
yes, you are WHAT?

Lucy says
yes i am playing

Dan says
Quit being annoying

Lucy says
haha
i wasn't even trying to

Dan says
OK
So who are you?

Lucy says
Shadow

Dan says
Please stop lying

Lucy says
but it's funny

Dan says
No, it's not, it's infuriating
I hate people who lie

This continued as Volkov's fury escalated and made for a very funny few minutes on my part.

So, my students, as St. Ignatius of Loyola once said, "Go forth and set the world on fire". Or Volkov's temper.

[Gen. Volkov]

Note: It took her about half an hour to actually get me to insult her, and I was mad for about 2 minutes. Also, you would have to find something about you that I care marginally about... difficult task. Made even more difficult by the fact that this will likely only work once. So yeah, congrats Lucy, someone finally managed to troll me to any extent at all.

i'm just not logged in because then you'll see who i am

Didn't ever even see that line, as my internet kept dropping out during the convo. This probably added more to me being pissed off than anything Lucy did. Stupid AT&T.

Nothing says "I don't care" like a long winded reply stating the reasons why you don't care about said event.

I guess Volky-poo really doesn't care then. Maybe next time, Lucy!

[Kilkenne]

tl:dr

Shut up, Holby.  :P

[Kyrolin Zenyar]

Ouch.

[Briar]

This, children, is how adult's argue

[Twilight Shadow]

You know what I thought I was suppose to learn something here....well it was a decent read lol

[Kyrolin Zenyar]

What, you didn't learn how to drive Volky nuts?

[Briar]

No. Volkov is like a RWL Russian Santa

[Kyrolin Zenyar]

Can we burn his effigy like the French?

[Briar]

NO!

That is horrible. And Americans did it too btw

[Kyrolin Zenyar]

That's great to know.  I want to be there next time.

[Ungatt Trunn II]

Go on, go there.
