Bizzare things when Ancient names are used.
Excerpt from IRC:

[09/15/2008 - 22:26] <Aardwolf> I summon a giant pink elephant with rabies.
[09/15/2008 - 22:27] <Zacam> It is violated by Shub-Niggurath. Profusely.
[09/15/2008 - 22:28] <Aardwolf> does it in any way cause Shub-Niggurath to become infected with rabies and die?
[09/15/2008 - 22:28] <Zacam> No.
[09/15/2008 - 22:28] * Aardwolf thinks back to how the player beats Quake 1
[09/15/2008 - 22:29] <Aardwolf> btw that's the player doing it, not the character
[09/15/2008 - 22:29] <mura> go into console and cheat!
[09/15/2008 - 22:29] <Aardwolf> Alright, I wait for the destination of the teleportation thingy to line up with Shub-Niggurath, and then I activate the teleporter
[09/15/2008 - 22:30] <Zacam> You are laughed at as you are consumed and Ghanatothoa uses the portal to destroy ALL.

Bush (Verb) -- To do stupid things with confidence.

This year, both Groundhog Day and the State of the Union Address occurred during the same week.  This is an ironic juxtaposition of events--one involves a meaningless ritual in which we look to a creature of little intelligence for prognostication, while the other involves a groundhog.

"Dagon stirs."  :nervous:

While hilarious, I don't think those count as ancient names.  :D

The best way to making sure a thread will never be a classic is someone saying it should be after ten posts.

Really, the "Old ones" get such a bad rap.

Cthulhu and Dagon are BOTH in my fanfic and nothing has happened (yet).

It's not like I just blurt out "Narlythotep" and....

You'd think we would have all run into more trouble while playing Derelict.

Well, to be fair, I always did wonder why my computer would explode with the fire of a thousand suns whenever I played that particular campaign.

I wonder if it could  be related to this?
