Don't we all
I don't know, that's up to Mike Ely, & Deidre hates Saratov anyway. I don't think Mike Ely would put a sex scene in the story, because some younger lads can be reading the story. But then again, those very lads are accesing porn. I hate the internet...
BTW, nakEd is the spelling. Oh well, no one's perfect. In fact, I'm the farthest from perfect of anyone on this planet. In the words of the great & wise Red Dog: "I a reel good speeller"

The decent into weirdness. Ahh, I love it! No, the weirdest times were definately the famed 'Jarke topics', which included 'Ohio', Brocolli, & the little known 'Alvin & the Chipmunks' one.
I don't think it can get any weirder, unless Jarke starts some new threads

I think we should let this topic quietly sink to the bottom and continue this discussion in a club or something. Otherwise Firaxis may lose what little shred of respect they still have for this forum.

At any rate, the correct spelling is "nekkid".
Oh, and it's the "descent into weirdness". . .
DCA posted 12-06-98 06:23 PM ET
I'd do both, simultaneously!!! The more, the merrier....
I think Santiago might be into those 'power games', though... Ah well, in any case it should be interesting.

I wouldn't do Santiago for two reasons. 1.) She's taken a nose dive from an ugly tree, & hit every branch on the way down! 2.) It's not good to have sex with your boss
You know these forums are going to hell when you're discussing the do-ability of cartoon drawings of a sci-fi game. I say we do SnowFire's suggestion & let the thread sink faster than Titanic.

I think it's absolutely amazing that people can get offended by an innocent, silly little thread such as this.. If anyone ever again tries to suggest to me that Americans are not sort of sexually oppressed, I'll laugh'em right in the face!
Anyway, the Red Dwart scene is great.. I'll take Deirdre and Santiago rather than Wanda (?) Flintstone any day tho

Okay, since this thread refuses to die, I'm putting it in the misspelled I club XIX. I'm not terribly offended by this topic, DCA, but think of the people who might contribute to our forums that never come because they are driven away by this? Better for them to find out our true nature long after it is too late for them to resist SMACA.

Talk about a descent! Where did this topic come from? Not only that, but what about that fundamentalist lady person? And i wouldn't want to have a fling with any of these females, simply because i enjoy being in a wonderful and stable dating relationship (and besides...none of them are that attractive.)
Anyway, YYYH, sleeping with your boss might not be a bad idea...but Ferengis do have a rule that say that you should never sleep with the *daughter* of your boss...;-) I'm glad the Star Trek Faction died, even though i'm a science fiction fan, which includes everything.

hehehe...isn't it fun that the surest way of keeping a thread alive is to attempt to bury it?
SnowFire: Well, at least you're admitting that you think people might be offended by this thread.. I suppose it's the 'sexual nature' rather than the 'non-sensical nature' you're afraid will put people off - at least you ever tried to bury the NIM, Ohio or broccoli threads... (methinks)
DCA,
Of all the strange 'crimes' that human beings have legislated out of nothing, 'blasphemy' is the most amazing--with 'obscenity' and 'indecent exposure' fighting it out for second and third place.
Q Cubed posted 12-07-98 01:33 AM ET
on second though, YYYH, you may be right about sleeping with your boss. i was making my statement based on the assumption that your boss would be of the opposite gender. :-) my apologies.
also, i think this thread is less offensive than most...i am reminded of the Great Sagan's novel, Contact, here:
"Pray for Sex." The story behind it: A Soviet scientist comes to Berkeley and finds these sort of buttons. He buys the button mentioned above and states: "In America, it's only offensive in one way. In Russia, it's offensive in two separate ways."
Now, what does this have to do with this thread? Well...just imagine if we had started a thread about something to do with the sexuality of some of the most revered religious figures...the sheer amount of insulting or flaming responses would drown out the ones who actually debate it.
And, i agree with YYYH. Cartoon drawings aren't real, and fantasizing about them...well, you know, it just seems kind of like something a DESPERATE friend of mine does. Scary.
No offense, peoples. :-)

Hey, how can anyone find this thread offensive??? I found it mildly amusing and slightly more inventive then many other threads on this board.
This thread doesn't go into religion or politics, or anything contravertial. It doesn't even mention sex, just gettng 'nakid'. :-)
YYYH: No one is saying that fantasising about cartoon characters is not desperate - you really should watch that episode of Red Dwarf :-)
DCA: I think they're called Wilma and Betty ;-). And yeah, I'd go with Deidry too because Wilma would never leave Fred :-)

Sister Miriam? Come on, you gotta be kidding! No way I'll ever go near that woman, latex or not...
It's probably not much of a loss in any case - those right-wing conservative Christian people don't exactly have a reputation for being fun in bed

Shining1 posted 12-07-98 11:48 PM ET
Well, I think this signals we've just about exhausted every possible angle of on-topic discussion here.
Seriously, I think the leaders are highly psychotic and quite unstable. I'm not sure I would want to stand in the same room as them, let alone have sex.
Q Cubed posted 12-08-98 12:00 AM ET
Hey, Maya, i'm a teenager and i am surprised at your generalization. not all of us males drool over lara croft. i personally think she's too unrealistic (skin's way to tiny, she's rather TOO well drawn...).
As for the leaders being unstable, the more unstable they are, often time the more respected and followed they are till a point. I honestly would like to meet them, and speak with them and see if i could relate to their various dementias...i have a few myself. :-)
I wouldn't want to sleep with them, seeing as most are male, and the three females are rather unattractive.
CIAu for now!
Q Cubed posted 12-08-98 12:00 AM ET
i gotta stop saying that.
Shining1 posted 12-08-98 12:13 AM ET
Q Cubed: Come on! A religious zealot, a technocidal vegephile and an ideological fanatic? How many dementias do you have?
Though I agree with your comment about the portraits. Especially Miriam's - she looks more dopey and depressed than the fiery religious type she's meant to be. As well Corazon has impossibly dark eyes, and Skye hardly looks scottish.
As for the male leaders, while Lal and Morgan are both well drawn, Zarhkov just looks like a weirdo and Yang hardly embodies the 'Asian Hardass' type he's supposed to.
Is it too late to get the portrait's changed?
Q Cubed posted 12-08-98 12:30 AM ET
ummm...OCD? unfortunately, i have mild ocd, and it's not fun. and as for the other dementias, actually, it's not too bad, since i know and am friends with several fanatics of one thing or another. maybe it's just the teenage hormones, maybe not, but still...it wouldn't bother me unless they started brainwashing me or forcefully makeing me do something against my will.
Yo_Yo_Yo_Hey posted 12-08-98 12:42 AM ET
Drooling teenager?? No, not me. In fact, I was discussing the stupidness of Eidos's 'big tits' strategy with Tomb Raider, with diabolik some time back. I personally think cartoon drawings that people are attracted to(for some reason) are dumb. The real thing is better......
Your faithful & hell-bent NIMadier general,
YYYH
Q Cubed posted 12-08-98 12:58 AM ET
YYYH, i agree with you totally, man. real females are so much more fun to be around, because they don't have canned speech, they think, they breathe and what not. as for tomb raider, it's supposed to be a good game, but it's in a genre that i just can't really play well with. lara croft is not someone that i would drool over in a million years.
and besides...drooling isn't the best way to attract members of the opposite gender, either. ;-)
DCA posted 12-08-98 02:18 AM ET
Actually, I find drooling to be extremely effective in a wide variety of situations.
Yo & Qbed: No no, you've got it all wrong. Real girls just don't stand up in comparison with cartoons, and I've got statistics to prove it. Cartoons have, on average, 53% more personality than real girls. Average cartoon IQ and EQ are both in excess of 145, far outranking their RL (real life) counterparts. Finally, cartoons have been proven to be at least 23% more beautiful than RL girls, and they practically never get sick or anything.
The final conclusion, then, is that cartoons are definitely worth drooling over. In fact, male drooling is generally considered extremely sexy among cartoon women, and is as such a fine way of getting around that difficult initial contact.
Having established these facts we can turn to the real problem: the fact that cartoon females often are inseparable from their cartoon males (this is the issue which dushan previously discussed to some extent). The solution, I think, is to approach the cartoon females at the earliest possible opportunity, hopefully getting their attention while they still remain unattached to a specific cartoon male. Failing that, try violence (erasers have been known to be extremely effective against cartoon characters).
DCA,
I don't have any solution, but I certainly admire the problem.
DCA posted 12-08-98 07:18 PM ET
"You look like teenage boys drooling over Lara Croft!"
Of course we do. That's the point. Ever heard about irony?
DCA,
If there is anything the nonconformist hates worse than a conformist, it's another nonconformist who doesn't conform to the prevailing standard of nonconformity.

Q Cubed posted 12-08-98 11:35 PM ET
Man, no offense, but i disagree with saying that cartoon females have more personality and what not than real females. if you took the time to fall in love with a real female that returned your affection, i doubt you would return to the cartoon females. Cartoon females don't give you nice backrubs when you need it, they don't talk to you to help you solve problems, they aren't as cute, and you can't do as much with them (take that in any manner that you wish, but i'm not being especially vulgar or perverse here).
Besides...kissing cartoon characters isn't fun, because when i was young, i decided to eat paper. It was nasty. ;-) Also, drooling over paper cartoon girls...if a glob of saliva fell out, you'd get the picture all yucky. For television and other electronic cartoon girls - static may prove to be a problem when you pucker up, and drooling over electric appliances isn't exactly the wisest thing to do. ;-)
SnowFire posted 12-09-98 02:17 AM ET
Hey! Skye isn't technocidal, she just has a little attachment with animals thing going! She'll gladly reseach technology, considering she was a biology profesor or something before, I think... and then use it to turn Santiago into tree, or maybe infest her with xenofungus.
Kurn posted 12-09-98 03:05 AM ET
This is a really pointless thread. This topic has absolutly nothing to do with the game.
Can you ask for anything better?
Just kidding. Seriously though, you do realise that you are drooling over a figment of Brian Reynolds imagination?
No, wait, there is nothing wrong with that.
(flashback to two years ago, drooling on the Civ 2 box and manual)

Seriously, real girls are a lot better than cartoons. Problem is, I got this thing were I always think that I'm right,(most of the time I am, what the hell, I won't be modest, I'm always right!) and apparently this attitude is detrimental to achieving, errr, "diplomatic relations" with a girl.
man I need a drink...
Q Cubed posted 12-09-98 10:02 PM ET
solution to your "Eternally right" complex...humour her. ;-)
if you're lucky, you won't find a girl who thinks she's always right, but is sure enough of herself that she can tell you when you are wrong. good luck, tho. they're far and few in between.
Yo_Yo_Yo_Hey posted 12-09-98 10:36 PM ET
Well, cartoon charachters don't break your heart after 3 years.
But real women are still better. You can talk to them, without saying some corny thing like on Tomb Raider, or other stupid games like that. Well, maybe not Final Fantasy VII.
I find it's best to let them usually win.

Seriously now, there is no doubt that the "real world" is better. After all only with real women there are possibilities for ...eeehh... real ...hmmm.. physical contact, if you know what I mean (which you obviously do).
Threads are increasingly off-topic. A newcomer would not be sure if these are the actual SMAC forums or something else (though I've got no problem with it).

Hm, normally I would just assume you guys were playing along with the (obvious?!) joke, but, y'know, people around here sometimes think I'm serious at the weirdest of times.
So, much as I hate stating what people hopefully see as obvious, I'm not REALLY into being with cartoon girls. Jus' kiddin', ok?
Oh well, hopefully I'm just making a fool of myself explaining a not-at-all-subtle joke.

dushan	posted 12-07-98 11:50 AM ET Hey, how can anyone find this thread offensive??? I found it mildly amusing and slightly more inventive then many other threads on this board. This thread doesn't go into religion or politics, or anything contravertial. It doesn't even mention sex, just gettng 'nakid'. :-) YYYH: No one is saying that fantasising about cartoon characters is not desperate - you really should watch that episode of Red Dwarf :-) DCA: I think they're called Wilma and Betty ;-). And yeah, I'd go with Deidry too because Wilma would never leave Fred :-)
Jojo	posted 12-07-98 04:55 PM ET What about Sister Miriam? Dollars to doughnuts, she's wearing a latex corset under her habit! (I'm sooo sorry for this, but I like fun, too!)
DCA	posted 12-07-98 09:32 PM ET Sister Miriam? Come on, you gotta be kidding! No way I'll ever go near that woman, latex or not... It's probably not much of a loss in any case - those right-wing conservative Christian people don't exactly have a reputation for being fun in bed DCA, There were Arabs with knives at the foot of the bed.
Maya	posted 12-07-98 10:06 PM ET Gee... Come on guys, get a life! You look like teenage boys drooling over Lara Croft!
Shining1	posted 12-07-98 11:48 PM ET Well, I think this signals we've just about exhausted every possible angle of on-topic discussion here. Seriously, I think the leaders are highly psychotic and quite unstable. I'm not sure I would want to stand in the same room as them, let alone have sex.
Q Cubed	posted 12-08-98 12:00 AM ET Hey, Maya, i'm a teenager and i am surprised at your generalization. not all of us males drool over lara croft. i personally think she's too unrealistic (skin's way to tiny, she's rather TOO well drawn...). As for the leaders being unstable, the more unstable they are, often time the more respected and followed they are till a point. I honestly would like to meet them, and speak with them and see if i could relate to their various dementias...i have a few myself. :-) I wouldn't want to sleep with them, seeing as most are male, and the three females are rather unattractive. CIAu for now!
Q Cubed	posted 12-08-98 12:00 AM ET i gotta stop saying that.
Shining1	posted 12-08-98 12:13 AM ET Q Cubed: Come on! A religious zealot, a technocidal vegephile and an ideological fanatic? How many dementias do you have? Though I agree with your comment about the portraits. Especially Miriam's - she looks more dopey and depressed than the fiery religious type she's meant to be. As well Corazon has impossibly dark eyes, and Skye hardly looks scottish. As for the male leaders, while Lal and Morgan are both well drawn, Zarhkov just looks like a weirdo and Yang hardly embodies the 'Asian Hardass' type he's supposed to. Is it too late to get the portrait's changed?
Q Cubed	posted 12-08-98 12:30 AM ET ummm...OCD? unfortunately, i have mild ocd, and it's not fun. and as for the other dementias, actually, it's not too bad, since i know and am friends with several fanatics of one thing or another. maybe it's just the teenage hormones, maybe not, but still...it wouldn't bother me unless they started brainwashing me or forcefully makeing me do something against my will.
Yo_Yo_Yo_Hey	posted 12-08-98 12:42 AM ET Drooling teenager?? No, not me. In fact, I was discussing the stupidness of Eidos's 'big tits' strategy with Tomb Raider, with diabolik some time back. I personally think cartoon drawings that people are attracted to(for some reason) are dumb. The real thing is better...... Your faithful & hell-bent NIMadier general, YYYH
Q Cubed	posted 12-08-98 12:58 AM ET YYYH, i agree with you totally, man. real females are so much more fun to be around, because they don't have canned speech, they think, they breathe and what not. as for tomb raider, it's supposed to be a good game, but it's in a genre that i just can't really play well with. lara croft is not someone that i would drool over in a million years. and besides...drooling isn't the best way to attract members of the opposite gender, either. ;-)
DCA	posted 12-08-98 02:18 AM ET Actually, I find drooling to be extremely effective in a wide variety of situations. Yo & Qbed: No no, you've got it all wrong. Real girls just don't stand up in comparison with cartoons, and I've got statistics to prove it. Cartoons have, on average, 53% more personality than real girls. Average cartoon IQ and EQ are both in excess of 145, far outranking their RL (real life) counterparts. Finally, cartoons have been proven to be at least 23% more beautiful than RL girls, and they practically never get sick or anything. The final conclusion, then, is that cartoons are definitely worth drooling over. In fact, male drooling is generally considered extremely sexy among cartoon women, and is as such a fine way of getting around that difficult initial contact. Having established these facts we can turn to the real problem: the fact that cartoon females often are inseparable from their cartoon males (this is the issue which dushan previously discussed to some extent). The solution, I think, is to approach the cartoon females at the earliest possible opportunity, hopefully getting their attention while they still remain unattached to a specific cartoon male. Failing that, try violence (erasers have been known to be extremely effective against cartoon characters). DCA, I don't have any solution, but I certainly admire the problem.
DCA	posted 12-08-98 07:18 PM ET "You look like teenage boys drooling over Lara Croft!" Of course we do. That's the point. Ever heard about irony? DCA, If there is anything the nonconformist hates worse than a conformist, it's another nonconformist who doesn't conform to the prevailing standard of nonconformity.

Q Cubed	posted 12-08-98 11:35 PM ET Man, no offense, but i disagree with saying that cartoon females have more personality and what not than real females. if you took the time to fall in love with a real female that returned your affection, i doubt you would return to the cartoon females. Cartoon females don't give you nice backrubs when you need it, they don't talk to you to help you solve problems, they aren't as cute, and you can't do as much with them (take that in any manner that you wish, but i'm not being especially vulgar or perverse here). Besides...kissing cartoon characters isn't fun, because when i was young, i decided to eat paper. It was nasty. ;-) Also, drooling over paper cartoon girls...if a glob of saliva fell out, you'd get the picture all yucky. For television and other electronic cartoon girls - static may prove to be a problem when you pucker up, and drooling over electric appliances isn't exactly the wisest thing to do. ;-)
SnowFire	posted 12-09-98 02:17 AM ET Hey! Skye isn't technocidal, she just has a little attachment with animals thing going! She'll gladly reseach technology, considering she was a biology profesor or something before, I think... and then use it to turn Santiago into tree, or maybe infest her with xenofungus.
Kurn	posted 12-09-98 03:05 AM ET This is a really pointless thread. This topic has absolutly nothing to do with the game. Can you ask for anything better? Just kidding. Seriously though, you do realise that you are drooling over a figment of Brian Reynolds imagination? No, wait, there is nothing wrong with that. (flashback to two years ago, drooling on the Civ 2 box and manual)

DHE_X2	posted 12-09-98 08:28 PM ET That post from brian reynolds should be coming up any time now... Seriously, real girls are a lot better than cartoons. Problem is, I got this thing were I always think that I'm right,(most of the time I am, what the hell, I won't be modest, I'm always right!) and apparently this attitude is detrimental to achieving, errr, "diplomatic relations" with a girl. man I need a drink...
Q Cubed	posted 12-09-98 10:02 PM ET solution to your "Eternally right" complex...humour her. ;-) if you're lucky, you won't find a girl who thinks she's always right, but is sure enough of herself that she can tell you when you are wrong. good luck, tho. they're far and few in between.
Yo_Yo_Yo_Hey	posted 12-09-98 10:36 PM ET Well, cartoon charachters don't break your heart after 3 years. But real women are still better. You can talk to them, without saying some corny thing like on Tomb Raider, or other stupid games like that. Well, maybe not Final Fantasy VII. I find it's best to let them usually win.

CrackGenius	posted 12-09-98 11:03 PM ET It seems immaturity has no limits... But that's why it is fun . Seriously now, there is no doubt that the "real world" is better. After all only with real women there are possibilities for ...eeehh... real ...hmmm.. physical contact, if you know what I mean (which you obviously do). Threads are increasingly off-topic. A newcomer would not be sure if these are the actual SMAC forums or something else (though I've got no problem with it). CrackGenius Puritanism: the haunting fear that somebody, somewhere, might be having a good time.
Q Cubed	posted 12-10-98 12:10 AM ET physical contact? you mean holding hands? virgin ears! virgin ears! wait...i'm not hearing anything...virgin eyes! virgin eyes! ;-) p.s. YYYH - if your hearts broken, often times you realize it's worth it. "Tis better to have loved and lost than to never have loved at all."
DCA	posted 12-10-98 01:16 AM ET Ha. It is better to have loved and lost than to have just lost. In any case, your pitiful attempts to defend RL girls just aren't any match for the glorious magnificence of cartoon girls. Hmpf, physical contact! What's up with that?! DCA, If you don't care where you are, then you ain't lost.
DHE_X2	posted 12-10-98 07:05 PM ET You know DCA, it might be possible to rig something up with a Cd-rom drive that would... What the HELL am I frikkin' saying?!? Man, this thread has screwed me up enough, I'm out of here...
Yo_Yo_Yo_Hey	posted 12-10-98 07:14 PM ET Ehhh, my heart ain't broken any more. I was just really depressed back in September. I don't know why I hung out here when I was feeling like ****. I must really have no life.......damn you SMAC!!!!! Your faithful & hell-bent NIMadier general, YYYH
Q Cubed	posted 12-10-98 08:57 PM ET DCA...it seems as if we occupy different planes of existence...i like being with my REAL girlfriend as much and maybe even more than you enjoy being with your cartoon women...but that might be because i don't really know any pretty cartoon females... Oh well. YYYH - i'm sorry. Anyway, this thread is really messed up. :-)
DCA	posted 12-11-98 09:02 AM ET Hm, normally I would just assume you guys were playing along with the (obvious?!) joke, but, y'know, people around here sometimes think I'm serious at the weirdest of times. So, much as I hate stating what people hopefully see as obvious, I'm not REALLY into being with cartoon girls. Jus' kiddin', ok? Oh well, hopefully I'm just making a fool of myself explaining a not-at-all-subtle joke. DCA, I wouldn't know how to act if I weren't in trouble.
BoomBoom	posted 12-11-98 09:28 AM ET damn, I'm not here for a week, and look what kind of filth is bieng dragged in. You guys have nothing better to do? Seriously though, I could never do it with a cartoon character, 'cause they're too small for me. Real life anyday, at least they're 3D.
Yo_Yo_Yo_Hey	posted 12-11-98 06:52 PM ET Hey DCA, we were perfectly aware of you're obvious & not-subtle joke. We just felt like doing this, to make you look foolish. Mwu hahahaahahahahahahahaahah! This thread is awesome. The last thread pretty much all about sex was 'William Barton's Alpha Centauri', & that was pretty funny. In fact, I wish I still had the old forums so I could read that!
