The Ultimate March[/url]

On a scale of captain crunch to fluff bunny where would you place your priorities on campaign design?

With crunch a 1 and fluff a 10, I'd say I hover around 3 or 4.

Would you rather be trapped in the world of dreams (including other peoples' dreams and nightmares, and without lucid dreaming control) or in a very very boring afterlife (infinity of blackness, but you remain self-aware) for the rest of forever?

[SDragon]

Being the Neil Gaiman fan that I am, I'd have to say dreams. I just hope I'm welcome in that world.


Hoagie, hero, sub, grinder, or italian?

[Elemental_Elf]

I like submarine sandwiches, mmm... Subway eat fresh.
 
The King has asked you to save his very attractive daughter from the evil Dragon, high atop Mount Dragoneatsmen. It was a long duel but eventually you chopped the beast's head clean off. As you enter the highest room on the tallest tower, your heart skips a beat. As the door opens, you see your arch-rival - Chett Awesomesword - putting the moves on the princess! And she's enthralled by that scoundrel! What do you do?

[SDragon]

Cock-block the douche. Who's the hero in this story, here?

Favorite distilled beverage?

Um... distilled water?

You saved the princess and are returning to the castle to find Chett telling the king how HE slayed the dragon and that his noble henchman of some swordsmanship is even now returning with the princess. What do you do?

Kill Chett, then kill the king - and tell everyone I arrived just in time to avenge His Majesty's tragic murder at the hands of that bastard Chett. Then marry the princess, thus becoming the new king, and rule my kingdom with an iron grip :demon:

You're barely halfway through in your training as a Padawan yet, and you just found out that your Jedi Master and life-long role model is secretly a Sith. Search your feelings - will you turn against him, try to redeem him, or follow his path to the Dark Side?

[Steerpike]

I cherry pick enough of the cooler Dark Side abilities to become a Gray Jedi, then later turn against him.

Would you rather be a werecat or a weredog?

[Elemental_Elf]

Weredog because Dogs are just better creatures. Though honestly, I would rather be a Wereroc! :)

Chett and the Old King have been resurrected by the Clerics of Bahamut. They have raised an army and marching towards your capital. What do you do?

Skip town with the treasury and retire comfortably. After rigging the castle with explosives.

You're in the desert. You're dying. You find a genie. One wish only. What is it?

[Elemental_Elf]

Transport me to an island with plenty of fresh water and lots of scantily-clad women!

A bounty has been taken out on your head for high crimes against your former Kingdom. You are wanted dead or alive. Over the months, you have squandered your vast wealth on frivolous things and now have just 100 gold pieces to your name. What do you do?

Disguise myself and turn in the mangled body of a look alike for the bounty, killing two birds with one stone. :P

Opera or country?

[Elemental_Elf]

Can I choose neither? If I had to, I'd go Opera if only because Country unnerves me (more).

Optimus Prime or Optimus Primal?

[Nomadic]

Optimus Prime.

You are fighting Darth Vader with your power fists on top of the Enterprise as it flies through a battle between the Battlestar Galactica and the Normandy while all the ships are orbiting a star about to go supernova sending waves of radiation crashing out to decimate the galaxy and fulfill the ultimate plans of the Core Commander to implode the galaxy and bring about a new world order lead by himself Megatron and an Alien Queen ruling everything with an iron fist with the help of their Space Marines. How long did it take you to realize that was a really long run-on sentence?

[Steerpike]

Actually, that technically might not be a run-on, even though the sentence is hideously long and full of dependent clauses, so much so that it sounds like a run-on.  I think all the clauses are properly related to one another, even if they get highly convoluted.  However, you did use the incorrect tense of "to lead" in the latter part of the sentence - "lead by himself Megatron and an Alien Queen ruling everything with an iron fist with the help of their Space Marines" should be "led by himself and Megatron."  I may be wrong, but having read it several times I can't spot a missing conjuction or comma splice.  Technically speaking, a sentence can be extended indefinitely without qualifying as a run-on so long as it's properly punctuated and/or has conjuctions; it just tends to make for excruciating writing if sentences go on too long.

And yes, I am being a total ass by being so fussy.  Marking numerous bad student papers has made me ridiculously sensitive to grammatical errrors.  ;)

You've died.  Which Outer Plane does your soul gravitate towards?

[Ghostman]

Going by the Planescape cosmology? I figure I'd end up wandering along the "edge" of the Outlands, ever moving from one Gate-Town to the next.

You have no mouth and you must scream. What do you?
