*rolls onto his back, starts pumping the legs, and vanishes behind a wall of spray, thus hoping to throw the water cannoneer off her aim*
Nobody told me there were water cannon in here, glurble glurble glub

Bluebottle Posted Apr 18, 2001
*Grabs a high-powered water cannon, and whilst Bigalibi is attempting to distract Ming, sneaks up to a cannon behind him and shoots him*
Liar - anyone who read the article this conversation is attached to is told in the first paragraph about the cannons!

* ducks under cannon, grabs Blackbottle and throws him in the deep end* Fifteen low lying villages are swamped in the wash.
*climbs to the top diving board and launches himself in a tight tuck to "bomb" the pool*

Ming Mang Posted Apr 18, 2001

*grabs three of the highest-power cannons and squirts BigA with all three at the same time*

Bluebottle Posted Apr 18, 2001
*While Bluebottle swims to the bottom of the pool, takes the plug out and then jumps out while all the water spirls down the open drain.*
*When Bigalibi lands in the pool from his bomb, all the water has gone.*

Ming Mang Posted Apr 18, 2001
*soaks Minesweep by way of saying "Hi! Welcome to the water fight!"*
It's OK Minesweep, I don't think filling it again will be a problem!
*squirts everyone with cannons*

*The Professor teleports in.*
What ho, all!
Sorry I'm late to get back here after The Other Place (ezboards), but I was rather busy...
*Waves to Bigalibi/BigA, a newcomer in comparison with Tonks.*
*The Professor cradles his chin in his hand in a ponderative pose...*
Ah yes, does anyone remember my first days on h2g2? When I was called 'BigC'. That's all changed now, eh?
*He's suddenly thrown off-course (literally) from his reminisces by a sharp and sudden jet of water from behind, forcing him to splash headfirst into the pool.*
Gah! Who was that?
The swimming pool
Wayfarer -MadForumArtist, Keeper of bad puns, Greeblet with Goo beret, Tangential One Posted Apr 19, 2001
ummm..... not ME! *quickly goes to top of teleport-slide(set it up in an early post here, dunno how i got off it) and goes down it.*

Ming Mang Posted Apr 19, 2001
*sniggers*
Sorry Pr. Tonks, was that you?
Yes, I remember when you were BigC. Much easier to type. I don't think I actually knew you then, though...
Anyhow... having squirted some welcoming water at you, please feel free to try and soak me back. This may be difficult, seeing as I'm already soaking, but as I said, please feel free to try...

*With only his head bobbing out of the water, the Professor looks at Ming, with evil water-related doings in mind.*
*To fuel any onslought (sp?) he may perform, he has the fact that he didn't activate his force-shields before falling into the water, and so his own clothes are - for once - completely drenched.*
Right, OK, you've had it!
*He floats up out of the water and into the air, preparing to perform a enourmous attack at Ming with a load of water materialising right out of the pool and into the fire-pattern the Professor would devise, amidst a load of special effects, but is again knocked back into the water by a quick jet of water, ruining his spectacular moment.*
Dang. Right, I'll have to do it the old way! I'm commin' ta getcha!
*He leaps out the water, grabs a garden hose (again, it appeared out of nowhere), and runs after Ming, spraying water in her general direction.*
