Acravius -> Meet the AK: Acravius (2/22/2008 12:28:00)

Hello DF Forumites,

I have been on the Forums for a while now (Feb 2006) but have recently been abducted helped into the role of AK.

So feel free to harrass me ask up to 8 questions. Each subparagraph or alternative notation counts, so you will only get 8 separate responses regardless of the numbers by the side of the questions or lack thereof.

Have fun, and I will do the same with my responses.

I will pre-emptively answer one question right away.
I have no Sig, because I am being ArchSpartan!




Resolute -> RE: Meet the AK: Acravius (2/22/2008 12:30:59)

Hey Acravius! FIRST POST!

So your an AK! Congratz! I've seen you around latly...

So, what do you do all day?

A lot of things actually - AK... AK... AK... :), but also I coach Water Polo, work in Aquatics in several different capacities and surf the big pipes of the internet while also riding on the back of the big trucks of the internet.

Do you accept bribes?
No, bribes often end up being debits against your Karmic bank account.

What other online or video games do you play?
On Line Games: Puzzle Pirates, Tales of Pirates, AQ, MQ, lots of the individual creations from Armor Games etc.
Consoles: Not a huge Console Player, but I have the Atari 2600 and X-Box (not 360) (Halo 1 and Halo 2, although there were other fun ones like Fable & Jade Empire, as well as the usual platformer junk.)
Computer Games: Starcraft, War Craft and the entire series of Wil Wrights Simulation Games from Sim City to Sim City Societies and Sims to Sim2 Seasons. RTS really seems to be my interest.
I can't wait for Spore to invade my Computer sometime in September.


Have you ever been to homestarrunner.com?
"Server your leg please!"

So, you like the movie 300? Or is it Halo?
Both, but Halo is more inspiring. Right now though, Spartan, the style of simplicity is where I am going with it, for now.

Well, I'll see you around!

Thanks for the Questions. - Acravius
I see you like Green too...


~GB5~




Jimbob Bankai -> RE: Meet the AK: Acravius (2/22/2008 12:32:57)

Did you have a good Valentine's day ?
Yes, it was very nice.

Your Favourite Anime?
The entire Gundum series - SEED, 078, Wing etc. They did a very nice job developing opposing perspectives, reasons for conflict, funny situations, etc.
It was pseudo realistic in the sense that the characters were reacting correctly for the situation, even if they all had superpowered mecha robots that could turn most of the planet into a wasteland.


Your Favourite Dish ?
Too Epicurean to have just one. I enjoy foods from all ethnicities and geographic locations. I feel fortunate to have experienced most of the foods of the world.

Ninja [:D]or Pirate[:'(]?
Ninja - despite the online games I play, i prefer the structured and simple existence that a Ninja lives to achieve.

Have you got any extra limbs[&:], if not would you ever want some more, and what ?
No, and No.

Do you have an arch-enemy ?
Apathy.

Mighty boosh or flight of the conchords?
Flight of the Conchords.

We are the mutant race, don't look at my eyes don't look at my face [sm=rmjxpt.jpg]
Averts Gaze.

Oh yeh and congratulations aswell , catch ya later

Thanks for the Questions, see you later. - Acravius




King Linus -> RE: Meet the AK: Acravius (2/22/2008 12:33:01)

1) Well done on becoming a AK.
Thanks.

2) what is you favarout food?
There is a world of flavors to enjoy. It is like asking, "Do you have a favorite Sunset"? No favorites.

3) what film types do you like? (e.g horror, comedy ect)
Suspense, Horror in the sense of Edgar Allen Poe, or Vincent Price not Hack & Slash, Thoughtful Comedies - Candide, Dogma & Action, Sci-Fi, Fantasy, Anime.
Basically it is the movie that dictates my like or dislike of the genre. If it brings me in and makes me ask questions, and then answers them logically in the genre and the world that has been created, then I like it. If it is poorly performed, trite, or violates its own rules simply to bring a conclusion, then I don't.
I tend to stay away from today's Horror films, because the focus is on the visual carnage and has less to do with the act of story telling.


4) how are the shinny new buttons?
They are becoming less shiny as I use them to cut out the fat of the forums, but they are surprisingly precise.

5) are you scared you may delete some important thread?
The important ones are quite apparent, so I don't fear this too much.

6) what is bieng and AK like?
It is like being given a big bag of everyflavor Beans, blindfolded, and then by sampling them one at a time trying to sort out the vomit ones.

7) guy or girl?
Guy.

8) favarout book of all times?
No favorite book, but the Authors I find most memorable - Douglas Adams & Daniel Pinkwater.

Thanks for the questions - Acravius




tombstone -> RE: Meet the AK: Acravius (2/22/2008 12:33:32)

Congrats! I wish I was an AK. Actually, it seems like a lot of work. Aw, only got 4th reply. Oh well. Still first page
Thank you. It is only as much work as the forumites make it to be.

What is your favorite MLB team?
Oakland A's, Pittsburgh Pirates

Cats or Dogs?
Cats (3), Dogs, (0)

Have you ever met another AK or staff member in real life? If so, who?
No, I have not.

What is the most important think for you to do before you die?
Experience much, and let others benefit from the experiences I have had.

Would you make a deal with the devil for anything?
No, as I have turned down the devil many times.

If you could have any super power, what would it be?
The power of Rectification (Making Whole). It would almost make retribution a thing of the past.

I dont ask all the Qs, in case I think of a great one
It is open then.

Congrats, See you later!

Thanks for the Questions - Acravius

Not for me. I don't consume alcohol.

See you on IRC!

*I see you now... strange >:P*
I see you as well - Coincidence, I think not [:D]




Darkick -> RE: Meet the AK: Acravius (2/22/2008 13:09:34)

Hey, it's great to have another slave AK among us ^_^
The Sandsea looks so great this time of year!

So, what do you feel is your duty to the DF community?
The duty I see, is to make the Forums a good place to be, and to help people find out as much as they can, so that they feel involved with the game and the game creation process.

When Alac took your soul, what did she do with it? I have been very curious about this secret process o.O
She wasn't very specific, she just kept telling me that it was the Appendix of the modern man, so I didn't really need it anyway!

So, you like green, well, I like blue. What say you?
Blue is a great hue, I just prefer the green because of its invigorating gleam.

Ooh, we have one of everything now! ~ArchExterminator~ArchSpartan~Lightbringer~K Tastrophe~Vaseline~KoO~Chicken~AgBatt~Z
The DF AKs sure are a unique bunch and we have a variety of attributes :D
It takes a village, doesn't it? (Hopefully I am not the only idiot.)

Well, that's all for now (lucky for you :9)...See you around! Have funy with the shiny buttons ^_^

Thanks for the questions - Acravius




Kitsukaru -> RE: Meet the AK: Acravius (2/22/2008 13:12:06)

rawr.. hello :3

1. How about the name Archivist instead, i think it suits you.
I'll be sure to catalog the reference and save it for later use. [:D]

2. Is your character human?
My character is human.

3. What role do you play as an AK?
The role I want to play as an AK is to keep the forums a place where everyone who participates feels like they belong, and has some connection to the game process.

4. Do you see yourself as a game staff sometime in future?
I wouldn't turn down the opportunity, but at this time I don't see that taking place.

5. If yes, what department would you belong?
I would work wherever they needed me, as I am sure it would be interesting and fun.

6. Do you sometimes get annoyed with some people of the forum?
Only as far as their characters they play interrupt the community feeling of the forums.

7. If I gave you a cookie... would you eat it? :3
Sure.

8. I believe this is it. How many pages do you think you'll go?
Fewer than some, but probably more than 2 pages.

Cake

DF

boomies -> RE: Meet the AK: Acravius (2/22/2008 14:53:57)

Hey.

Why did you choose that forum name?
A character from my RPing Past.

Why did you choose that title?
Spartan Armor from Halo, Spartans from 300 and also multiple definitions allow for flexibility.

Why did you choose that avatar?
Because it is ArchSpartan.

What did you do when you got the PM?
I was very happy and laughed and was exuberant all day.

Who captured you and put you in the AK Cellar?
Alac.
It is more of dungeon, than a cellar.


Do you play any AE Games? If so, what is your level?
AQ - 57, DF - 39, MQ - 15
I have multiple characters in each game, but those would be my prime characters.


List the games you play in order of least favorite to most favorite please.
I play too many to list like that - but I think AE games have been the most fun for the longest, excepting the Sims series which began in 1986 or so.

2 x 2+?
4+? = Whatever you want it to be.
Bye.

Thanks for the questions - Acravius




teh Zombie -> RE: Meet the AK: Acravius (2/22/2008 15:08:34)

Hello!
Hello!

Gratz on being an AK.
Thankz.

Which of AE's games do you play most? Why?
DF. Because I have been there since the beginning and my characters have the most purpose in regards to the game that isn't as clear as the other 2. Plus it generally has the most activities to complete that are important to the story, compared to the other two.

Chaos or Unity?
Balance

Undead or Paladins?
Neither. Both are Extremists outside their proper place, or as a reaction to that imbalance.

What will you say when you lock threads?
-Locked

Cya around! [:D]
Cya!




WritingPad! -> RE: Meet the AK: Acravius (2/22/2008 15:08:55)

Greetings, Acravius! And Salutations, too.
Well Met, Greetings to you as well. Thank You.

I have a few simple questions that I would simply love for you to answer. [:D]
I have a few simple answers that I would simply love for you to know. [:D]

Where were you on the night of the 18th of February? We know you did it!
This is obviously entrapment, as how would you know what "it" was if you didn't know who I was to have supposedly done the thing that you are insinuating that I was to have done on the date that you are suggesting I did something from which I now stand accussed by this slanderous statement of dubious validity.
If I looked at your feet, what would I see on them at this moment?
Boots.

Would you rather be an amoeba or a paramecium?
Amoeba. They are so much more flexible, and they are always looking for interesting things to envelope!

How messy is your room right now?
Not as messy as yours is! I can see through your computer screen... Muah Hahahah!

Have you ever been on a rooftop just for the fun of it?
Yes, that is a mandatory life experience!

And the most importaint question of all: Did you eat breakfast this morning?
Does Banana Cream Pie Count?

Thanks for the questions - Acravius




weapon of choice -> RE: Meet the AK: Acravius (2/22/2008 15:15:20)

1. Soooo, what's it like bieng the new AK, following on from the succesful dalek lover known to us as pjc?
It is fun, and interesting, and then there is chaos, and other stuff. Then it looks like a job, but then lightens up again.

2. Is it harasss harrasi fun to answer some questions?
Yes. [:@]

3. Olive green or lime green?
Olive green

4. L0l or ROFL?
LOL

5. half of my questions are already gone?
Yes.

6. Darn, not again! This happened with pjc question time. I kept using my questions up using statements.
You must hate that when it happens to you!

7. Okay, if you had survived a nuclear holocaust like the one in terminator, and you had 1 minutes 10 seconds to live before you spontaneously asploded, what would you do?
I would take the short nap to prepare for the long one, since I guess it was better than dying in the nuclear event in the first place.

8. And finally, which group genre (eg. Emo, goth, chav) would you relate yourself to the most?
I think that I just fit into the Nerd category.

Thanks for having the words forced out of you like a killer vacum on your mouth answering the questions.
Thanks for interrogating me asking questions - Acravius
~RP.




buzookabob -> RE: Meet the AK: Acravius (2/22/2008 15:30:24)

k I have three questions

Imagine if there was a person who had no relatives, acquaintances, or friends. This person is suffering every day. This person is whole heartedly evil. This persons death benefits the entire population of earth, including himself, in someway. If this person is killed in cold blood by someone who knows none of the above, is it wrong?
The person taking the life is wrong, as there is no moral purpose in his actions.
If on the other hand someone is intentionally trying to stop known actions, the death is going to be justified by societal judges, but the person will still deal with the knowledge that they took another life and judge for themselves whether they acted right or wrong. The person still may end up thinking he is wrong.


Can god make a sandwich so big even he cant eat it?
Any entity is possible of creating something larger than itself, and unintended consequences coming about from that process.

Did either of the above make your head explode?
No.

WELLLLLLLLLLLL DOOOONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
