Look, guys, we've had nine 10 out of 35 sign up! NINE TEN OUT OF THIRTY-FIVE!

That means we've got 26 25 people not yet signed up~!

Those odds are ridiculous~! It's like you all want me to just make off like a bandit with free stuff! FREE STUFF!

Get yourselves out there and get some free stuff, dang-it!

MAKE ME LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSE~!

Huzzah~! What an awesome Christmas!

EDIT: For number alteration due to someone else signing up! Yay, Raven!

Thanks for thinking of me but I don't need any free stuff. To be honest we aren't even playing a d20 anything right now. Lovable munchkin GM loves Palladium games stuff, so we have been playing the other PF (Palladium Fantasy). Best the free stuff goes to someone who will get enjoyment right away from it.

you said boob. I think I just turned 12 again. LOL

[captain yesterday]

Tacticslion and Freehold really need to shorten their LOOOOOOONG all in caps wordses. It plays havoc with my phone. :-) Damn side to side scrolling annoys the bejesus out of me.

What is a bejesus anyway? I certainly hope it's not essential for bodily function...

Anyway, not a big deal just something to be aware of.

It's really my stupid phone's fault.

[Captain Yesterday's Phone]

F$$! you too captain! At least I know how to put caps in a name!

[Captain Yesterday, Brut Squad]

I wonder if, since we got a batch of Hatchimals and NES Classic last week, people will expect us to get more this week.

Yeah, that's not happening. :-)

Here in Pittsburgh, there's a light dusting of snow on the sidewalks. I found my WEG Star Wars Hideouts and Strongholds book. There's a comic store Downtown that also sells gaming products, so I can get additional books there.

Arrana, he could also have been in a hurry and used the font that was used by the last person that used that machine. Or, he could have been a complete computer neophyte and not knew how to change the font setting.

World News Tonight...

Blood of Beasts Held Hostage, Day Seven!

Post office twenty miles away from my house has processed the package *twice*.

Somehow.

We're talking a Post Office that is *never* on the normal distribution routes to the quaint little village that Wei resides in...

...

TL: I would sign up for a thing, but I didn't note a thing that would grab my interest enough plus I'd want to contribute and I don't know anything I can contribute right now?

That's fair! But you don't need to, and aren't expected to, contribute, even if you don't want anything!

It has been brought to my attention that not enough of you are paying attention. To me. ... also to taig, I guess, or whatever.

SO!

FaWtL (kind of current) ROLLCALL~!

5 - John Napier! (extra awesome stuff to read during boring hours!) Yay, a third edit for sign ups! :D

6 - captain yesterday has signed up several times!

7 - Wei Jei the Learner! (something new to learn all about!) feels guilt-!? :/ Don't worry about it, man! Saying, "Hello!" is awesome, 'cause it gives the thing more exposure and traffic - and that helps, too! So you're literally helping just by saying, "Hello!" or whatever in that thread! :D

Now that I've gone through the last ten twenty-fivesixseven pages for trawling FaWtL people, I think I may have miscounted my numbering somewhere! BUT I DON'T CARE!

Also, I might have missed some of you who already signed up! I DON'T CARE! I want as many people as possible to have a chance at awesome! :D

It's Christmas, and I love you guys! Sign up for taig's love, too! ... that sounded weird, but WHATEVER! Merry Christmas!

Also, I might have somehow missed someone! I DO care! Get yourself signed up on that puppy right away!

(Also, remind me, so I know what a moron I was! Sorry!)

[John Napier 698]

TL,

You blend me in with Crusinos and Gran rey? I'm moderately amused, but the multiverse can handle only one of me. More than one of me would start a self-reinforcing oscillation of snarky sarcasm until there's another Big Bang. Wouldn't want that, now would we? :) :O :)!

P.S. It has started snowing here again.

That page break can sneak up on a person.

[John Napier 698]

That's why I just learned that I should go off and do something else for a couple of hours when near the page break. Like sleep.

[captain yesterday]

I just embrace it.

Also I almost never see it coming and evidently you have to make a big production about putting your clothes back on so I've theoretically been naked for a couple of years, or three...

[John Napier 698]

I was going to post something snide and sarcastic, but I think I'll let it slide, for now.

It's because none of you have avatars, and I have ADD* and dyslexia. So I just see a blue line-name and go, "Oh, yeah, that guy!" if one of you has posted more recently, though sometimes I notice.

Sorry!

(And, for all we know, there's been more than one of those already, just beyond our effective edge of the universe**.)

Saw that. Will reserve judgement until it has been shown conclusively that it works. It seems to violate the Law of Conservation of Momentum.

Well, I'm off. Got a few things to do before tomorrow. Like, get my weekly bus card renewed, have some pizza and a beer, browse the adjacent bookstore, and so on.

I agree - that's why it's so weird!

If you read my posts there, I want to believe, but find it worth being skeptical until proof is definitively shown. Still, there's a looooot of weirdness with it.

Enjoy!

Also, does anyone know how much this thing has been studied? I'm afraid that my eyes are un-focusing (along with my brain) every time I try and read the article thoroughly. :/

I think it's a really cool concept - I'm just wondering if the effects of the thing also lend itself toward indoctrination.

Off to work I go
Through the snow
Late, of course.

Hey, TL,

I wonder if the microwave photons are able to quantum-mechanically "tunnel" out of the chamber walls, producing the minute amount of thrust.

I've thought about it, but the problem is that it's happening so regularly that it's just weeeeiiiiiiiirrrrrrrrrrrd. Like, tunneling has not traditionally been that consistent.

On the other hand, I've wondered if there is a geometric reason - much like how superconductors at quantum levels tend to be influenced more by how many holes they have rather their actual materials, this could have something to do with it? But frankly, that's just kind of a ludicrous wondering based on the fact that it's a ludicrous claim. Also, fairy dust might be another reason... >.>

[John Napier 698]

TL,

Consider the following scenario, if you will. If the thickness of the chamber walls are thinner than the wavelength of the microwave photons, then the photons could tunnel through. So, if the photons could tunnel through, they could excite the atoms in the near-vacuum atmosphere into a plasma.. Now, if the chamber somehow accumulates a net negative charge, it could attract the positively-charged plasma. The plasma would then strike the chamber, imparting a slight change of momentum as the atoms transfer their kinetic energy to the chamber. But then, this is just conjecture on my part.
