Title: Your soul for FS3?
Post by: Tar-Palantir on March 07, 2003, 04:18:14 am
After reading this topic title I know what some of you are thinking, however this is a unserious topic which has very little about FS3, however read on

After having a rather late night discussion with a friend of mine about FreeSpace in general we got into a discusion about FS3 (or lack thereof). This friend happen then happen to ask whether I would give my soul for FS3.

Now since acording to certain regilous teaching I'm probably going to end up in the fiery pit of Hades anyhow, I said yes.

The question (and poll) therefore is: If the Devil himself appeared before you and offered FS3 for your soul, what would you say?

I'm hoping that someone else will say yes. Then I can steal it off them and keep my soul :D

As resident theologian (or at least, the only one I know of here),  it is necessary for me to say that this poll is based on a giant heap of deeply and fundamentally flawed theological conceptions. That having been said:

:lol:

Edit: Oh, and I can't vote on that poll since, for the above stated reason, the question actually doesn't make any sense.

rofl, I'd ask for something else than FS3, that's for sure :D
I'd ask him to switch places, in fact.

of course! :D

Then again, how exactly would this devil obtain FS3? He's probably not much of a programmer himself, so he would have to scare the V guys into doing it... :D

1) If they are working on Britney's Dance steps after all it is already likely that THQ have already sold their souls to Satan anyway. :lol:

2) Satan already has the best musicians. Who says that doesn`t apply to other professions :)

well, unfortunately there are some math books being sold at ridiculous prices. This title (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/2881248640/qid=1047100342/sr=1-7/ref=sr_1_7/104-0589507-0392704?v=glance&s=books) is a good example; I would have bought it already if its cost was anything near reasonable. :p

Voting simply has no effect whatsoever on the last post time of a thread. You can still vote on old threads, but they won't be bumped to the top of the list unless you post in one as well.

3. The Ancients to come back
4. No shivans, its just getting old
5. Lots of cool weaps
6. A amazing campaign, big battles, and a long one.
7. Add alot of veriables, so you can never exactly know whats around the next bend.
8. And of course, return to Sol. Maybe the Ancients try to destroy it.
