h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

wait a minute, MJ is Frood!

Oh darn! Does this mean we're going to have to do without his weekly advertising slogans for the UG? I rather liked them. Also, isn't it going to be a bit confuzzling for people and furthermore, any particular reason for changing names?

i don't know. it's confusing me.

just to confuse people. Ah ha! It worked. My rather non-evil sad plan worked.

And who said the advertising was going to stop

Well its not there at the moment, but then again thats just the kind of evil no-good plans I like to see in the Bar, free drink for Frood/MJ

*Passes him a free bitter*

*glug glug glug* ahhh.

MORE.

*hands him another bitter*

Don't push your luck boy

hmm. satisfactory.

Any Monkey Island fans in the League by any chance?

No, but I have just come from watching South Park. It was an interesting episode. The 4 main guys were drawn differently in ninja style while they were playing a ninja game because they had some weapons but the other half of the time it was normal. Anyway, Butters asked to play with them and they said no, so he went back to his house and dressed up as a super villain, who was, coincidently, named Professor Chaos, although he had 2 large metal gloves.

incidently when they were playing, Kenny managed to hit Butters in the eye with a throwing star, both in their imaginations and in real life. extremely funny i must say, but i didn't watch the rest of the episode.

Oh, yes I have played the Monkey Island games. V. amusing oo oo ooo.

Yeah Butters was the inspiration for the name of Prof. Chaos but the image of him was completely of my and my friend's inspiration, the gauntlet is not something he normally has I don't think and was just put in for the animé style episode - which incidentally was hilarious and you should have watched the rest of the episode to see Cartman, thinking he has powers of invisibility, walking in front of the entire town naked.

Dya ever play them anymore Frood? I find that they are so re-playable and I've recently purchased MI3 and 4, as well as Grim Fandango and I've found a programme that will run Maniac Mansion 1&2 and Sam&Max, which were previously unplayable on XP. So I'm getting back into all the SCUMM games really, what fun.

ah, those were the days... Trying to put parrots in cannons and the like...

Yep, my favourite was the sword fighting insults, then using the same ripostes for different insults against the swordmaster.
If anyone can find them on budget I'd strongly recommend them, really funny, similar in some ways to Adams and Python among others, and the puzzles are so obtuse in places its gratifying solving them. Just don't expect good graphics.

*rests head on the bar*

Any chance that there's a superhero size headache pill around here?

Yes, I do realise that my healing powers will take care of it all but that's beside the point

Nonsense, this is the bar, we specialise in GIVING headaches when you wake up, not taking them away.

fair enough

*bashes head on the bar a few times to get the headache back*

That's the spirit.

Riiight... I did watch the bit at the end of that south park episode. it was very funny! missed the middle bit though. oh well.

Lady, i think there's some asprin in the tearoom, but i see you're coping with your problem now. good ma..er... woman.

*offers a large to help with the headache*

*Unable to comment on gaming or South Park, KattMan sits hunched over a in a secluded corner, looking through a dirty window as the tumbleweed blows down the street*
