I have a mythology question for you all:

In what mythos did all the members of a particular thread (not to be named, of course) go post in the actual story thread?

:lol:

If you meet me:

Have some courtesy,

Have some sympathy,

And some taste.

Use all your well-learned politesse,

Or I'll lay your soul to waste.

Nah, no culture in history has ever believed in such a thing. :lol:

@ FZM's: i'm not sure. If i remember right Ragnarok was more a war/death of the gods, so not quite the end of all things, just the gods.

But I can't quite remember so i might be wrong.

@ Copa: there was no such mythos, although the Arsencian mythos involves a number of members who post on occasion (some more than others), but as far as my sources show never all at the same time.

((and hows this for scary, when i first typed the above message to Copa it said "@ Tom:", before i realised the mistake :shiftee2: ))

Heh, I've nearly called him Tom on more than one occasion. :shiftee2:

And Ragnarok is the end of the world, not just the gods. Only two humans, Lif and Lifthrasir, will survive. At least, that's what I remember. If someone wants to go on a fact-checking mission you're more than welcome.

You'd be correct.

Ragnarok is also an endless winter :shiftee2: sounds like fun...

Funnily enough I've never "almost" called any of you by your character names...

Well, Tom is a more 'normal' name, so maybe thats why we make the mistake? most of the other characters name are pretty fantasy-ish and so not nearly as mistakable as a normal persons name like 'tom'. :shiftee2:
