I have enjoyed a relatively peaceful term as Tyrannus of Mhaldor and it has been loads of fun (and paperwork). Keeping with the tradition of those who have come and gone before me, I submit the following complaints, serious and humorous, for your viewing pleasure.

- Messages that would be easier to read in letters, where one could organize them into paragraphs, are not appreciated.

- The city has ministers and a ruling council. I appointed people to those positions so I wouldn't have to do everything myself and I delegate work to those I cannot appoint. Just because I can spread the work out and make sure it gets done efficiently does not mean that I don't know what is going on.

- If you want a copy of the city's laws, do not come straight to me. They are on a slab at the gates. If you are a formal enemy of the city-state of Mhaldor, ask someone who won't be chewed up by the guards to get a copy for you.

- Just because I am the pinnacle of mortal authority in a city-state does not mean that I will be ignoring novice tests.

- I reserve the right to set anyone in the city on fire.

- No, I am not holding your hand through a process that is clearly documented. If you decide that traditions and proper procedure are above you, I have a stake to burn you at.

- Just because I like you OOC and IG does not mean I am not willing to have executed/sacrificed.

- Do not send tells directly to the Tyrannus in an effort to find out where the Bathory Chalet is.

- If you tattle on a Mhaldorian breaking the laws, you are not entitled to hear the outcome.

- I love working with the Mhaldorian players (most of you). You guys make it all bearable.

- When in doubt, am I going to believe the steadfast Mhaldorian or you? You get one guess.

i sorry i called you fragile on public news

Nicest rant post ever. I hope my complaints end up so pleasant, but somehow I doubt that'll happen.

You forgot to add that you never managed to get Gack to organise the slaves in a teahouse building effort. That's a big disappointment!

You did a nice job, boss. I've got some stylish and sensible shoes to fill. Enjoy your rest.

Love the fire rule, you were pretty awesome from what I saw/heard. Sorry about stabbing you all those times...Also enjoyed the gloves conversation, you were the first Mhaldorian that Boz didn't immediately dislike (first of quite a few, but still a big first)! Congrats to Nulaye, I look forward to stabbing interacting with you soon!

Obligatory "Evil vs. Oblivion pls Nulaye" post.

My expectations were really high for this rant. Seriously lacking in the vitriol department. Cute post, though. Enjoy your retirement, Kaevan!! Nulaye, you have my sincerest condolences.

I cannot call upon the reserves of rage that Gorlasintan and Varick have access to. Kaevan merely becomes disgruntled or snippy.

Not yet! Bah. You guys are -trying- to drive me into inactivity, aren't you? Wait until November is over, so I can finish National Novel Writing Month without having to balance Achaea stress, too. Pick on someone else in the meantime. Finish off Eleusis or something. I'll mail you a fancy tinderbox.

Anyway, obligatory Kaevan and congratulations to Nulaye (by the way, Nulaye, where have you been? I finished that customization for you, but I haven't seen you around to show you. I'll send a letter when I get home, if you still want it).

Worst rant ever.


Nulaye was on vacation getting hit on by robotic trash cans.

Your avatar is creepy, Gorly. It's like Satan-frog.

Isn't Japan great?

Girlfriend's-lap pillows, tentacle hentai, used panties in vending machines, and anthropomorphic amphibians that make it look like Furry Friday in hell. It's ostensibly the greatest country in the world.

Gorlasintan doesn't belong in the same sentence with Varick. At his best he clocks in at barely 0.07 Varicks.

I do not think you understand how conversion factors work.

Varick's rage is nothing.

This forum hasn't seen real rage in years.

Raging on the forums is useless. Everything gets modded and then the rager gets banned.

this thread is supposed to be about tyrannus' retirings, not japan, or other OOC BS. This is what's wrong with the forums. STOP DERAILING THREADS AND RAGE INSTEAD

-curse removed- YOU -curse removed- ing WHORE.

B& for personal attacks.

Hai Gorly

(Been awhile, am I doing it right?)

- off.

Well I tried. Out of practice, I s'pose.

I'm sad to see Kaevan go. While I didn't interact very much with him owing to the fact that I spend much more time on house things than on city things, I really loved most of your posts and what little interaction I did have. Also, I think you succeeded in setting more of a Stalinesque tone for Mhaldorian leadership and I really approve of that.

I want to put my vote behind Oblivion vs. Evil too. We've gotten too complacent after beating down Shalleleusyrene for so long now. It's more fun when Mhaldor has absolutely no allies and gets ransacked at three in the morning on a regular basis.

For who? The two noobs/australians (lololsamething) logged in?

I was in Disneyworld! I was the last person to find out I was becoming Tyrannus. Nice transition, though... Babel drama aside.

I wonder if anyone ever inherits a city position without having to start by picking up metaphorical beer-soked broken glass and vomited-in pizza boxes. Probably not.

Oh, well. Good times. and yes of course I want the customisations when you get a few minutes, thanks!

Unfortunately the bit about robot trash cans hitting on me is not a lie. Worse things have probably hit on me, anyway.

Well, the rest of us have all had a go at it.

Don't worry, I won't be raiding you at three in the morning. Not that that subtracts much from the military might of Shallam.

@Kaevan: From what I hear, you did a good job. I'm sure the right to set people on fire at any time was a great boon in the discharge of the duties of city leader- supposedly the most difficult and draining player position in the game. (Now if only I'd had it.)

So all I ever remember hearing from Nulaye is how stressed out she is and how -ing crazy everyone in Mhaldor makes her by giving her tons of work and responsibility. So the sensible thing to do is accept the position of Tyrannus.

lol

My first Mhaldorian letter was from Kaevan, and it was sealed and signed. I was pleasantly surprised and still remember it with a smile.

Kaevan is super awesome. Kaevan, you should switch back to bard and come join Ty Beirdd now that you're done with all this silly Tyrannus stuff.

I have too many fond memories of the Tyrannus Kaevan to relate, not that I would on the forums anyway, but I'll miss the utter calm that he brought to a really hectic position. Fortunately, I have immortalized this in a movie. Yay movies.

Kaevan.

Enough rage for you?

Kaevannnnn nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
ooooooooooooo!!!!

Congrats Nulaye!

I just realized...

Mhaldor is almost broke, and Nulaye likes to buy - (for the city, of course >.>).

Mhaldor is going to go broke. D:

So if your guards get dead, that's it? o_o

rofl

If our guards die, Apples is replacing them with superdenizens on the scale of Ugrach strength.

And there will be 30 in each room of Mhaldor.

What a great idea! And you will be next door to Melodia's with all the tea and Blackbird pie you can handle!

The problem is that they will randomly attack Mhaldorians, too.

After all, suffering is a positive thing.

Don't rofl, you underestimate just how much gold I can spend on shoes. And now there will be nobody to stop me, nobody!

"Nulaye, you've just been named Tyrannus! What are you going to do first?"

"I'm going to Disneyworld! Ummmm.... Oh no! Wait! Can we shoot this commercial over again?"

Because he deserves to be immortalized and remembered for his greatness (and fondness for tea):
(and because it makes me happy)

Commerative Kaevan Movie

Man I need to make a new one.

This is EXACTLY what I thought.

Is that from what I think it is?

Can't remember.

The joke existed before that movie.

Yes please.

@OP: havnt been around long enough to know either of em, but Nulaye is pretty kick ass, so congrats

This one made me laugh my ass off soooooooooo hard
