Yes, but what is the air speed of an unladen Longbow?  Well, before you shoot them out of the air because they're, you know...Longbow.

That would work a lot better if you had referenced a longbow BALLISTA...

Ok, my original "Bring out yer dead" post has been edited to help alleviate any ill feelings and also to go along with the current status of CoH.

Also, What is the air speed velocity of an unladen swallow?

African or European?

That depends on who sends it.

I was referring to The Whipping Boys of the Rogue Isles (TM), specifically the flying ones:

I finally decided to play new vegas with wild wasteland on for the first time in a long time, with all the things I remember seeing before now there are just so many monty python references.  Including a reference to this ; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ygy7UDADXDg

Thankfully they couldn't withstand a 10mm pistol, a power fist, and an armored laser drone.

To think, i'll be killing Stripe again soon.....:(.  Maybe a few MFC clusters might work....
Currently; Not doing any streaming, found myself with less time available recently.  Still playing starbound periodically, though I am thinking of trying other games.  Don't tell me to play mmohtg's though please :).  Getting back into participating in VO and the successors again to.

Shame that wild wasteland in new vegas didn't allow for npcs to survive any kind of limb loss.  It'd have been funny with the wild wasteland to see a character lose his arms and legs and continue yelling battle cries at you :).

In City of Heroes, you could see some odd things happen to NPCs:



I know its a glitch, but I still tried to lobby for a mode where the head would roll away and the body would just fall down and then explode, but I was told something something animation resources something blah blah.

Well, I was petitioned to change it NAO! because of the sads, or something like that...

I'm not sure I can write an alternate ending as well as the Monty Python crew though.

Someone petitioned you to change the ending of a skit done by some wickedly funny dudes in the 70s? No offense, but I don't think you can do better. ;)

Just because someone hasn't seen the movie doesn't mean you need to change any damn thing.

Do you mean to suggest that they're migratory?

The evidence of coconuts in the local grocery store would indicate that they do, somewhat, migrate. Whether that migration is due to swallows (either African of European) or some other manner, I will leave up to you to discuss. :)

Don't feel bad. It's Monty Python; nobody could do funny better than they did. IMO, honestly, very few people on the planet could even do as well.

Now that would've been an awesome travel power! A ninja run clone where you hop along banging two coconut halves together. For those players who were always asking for horse mounts in the game. ;D

Oooh! And a Walk clone too... Silly Walk.
