Subject: The Interent and its Stupidty! Random thread for bored people! Talk about anything -sex -fat -40k
A while back I was fired from the Daily Peon due to a huge strike of the members wanting to get rid of me. But 2 months later. They emailed me and said that they wanted me back. The reason why is because 12 of the members that got rid of me. Left due to getting kicked out of the group for abuse and other things (trolling swearing and such).
The Daily Peon then got me back and I remade my entrance and was better than ever before. Though unlike before where I was still beginning and such.
Now I have a new nation the Brotherhood of the Sword here is a brief intro to the daily Peon.
This is based on Warcraft 3's Azeroth. And excuse me mods but Its time the people knew about the Daily Peon.
History:
The story of DP as we know it begins in small empire located at the hidden Trolmanian Peninsula located south of Eastern Plaguelands, on the shore of the sea. Small and isolated it has been a few times attacked by undead, but mostly peaceful. Very strange people have come to Trolmania over the years, like genious peasant engineer Tleno and draenei paladin and lorekeeper Alagremm. One day Tleno got 5000 gold for his inventions and Alagremm was knighted for bringing the sacred Book of Elefge to Trolman. In the celebration of those events Tleno has offended Tiri, wife of Trolman. He put him in the prison, but he escaped with other people, stole 1000000 gold from Trolman and ran in the city catacombs. Trolman promised a village up the coast or lots of money and Alagremm who wanted his own land agreed to hunt for Tleno. So began the comic Hunt for Tleno.
After Trolmania was rebuilt and Alagremm got his land, suddenly Trolman attacked him for no reason. However they never battled, but Alagremm created the Triumvirate. But suddenly lots of strange new forces came, like master of grouse Takakenji, hippielord Evillizard, Sea Legion of VeljkoM... everyone wanted to help the poor knight. But no one expected him to summon a draenei from Outland and create a flying city which became capital of draenei, surviving high elves, rebel humans from Dalaran, lost ones and undead dwarves. But soon peace was declared between Alagremm and Trolman. But not with other combatants.
Over the time and pointless battles everyone settled down. Until the undead attacked Trolmania. The grouse helped the Empire, but they still lost. The undead destroyed Trolmania and Trolman went out to look for survivors to take back the capital. Soon they found out that it was Gwonman, the mage of Squadala, who was made right hand of Emperor during the war, who summoned the Legion. He kidnapped Empress Tiri as well. The capital was taken over by the united forces of players, but Gwonman escaped. As they found an outpost destroyed by blood elves they found the corpse of Tiri, who was put to rest. But soon it was found out that the undead attack was only an expeditionary force, not comparable to the real army that came shortly after. Also, Evillizard revived Tiri as a Dark Ranger and she went to serve Arthas.
Grouse offended by Trolman soon left an demons contnued their attacks. Alagremm believed that the wolrd became to dangerous and so he travelled in the nether, where he used the nether's evil races to create a new planet from pieces of Draenor that werent Outland. SInce Illidan was in Azeroth he also took Temple of Karabor to be the capital of Triumvirate. During his absence a night elf named Azsure came in Trolmania as well as a force of undead nerubians sent by Lich King. But strangely soon they went in a mountain where they summoned an Old God. Meanwhile Azsure took control of local tribe of savage night elves named Na'vi, by marrying the daughter of the chieftain, arriving in the village of a big chiemera called Toruk. Soon Trolman organized death of the chieftain making Azsure the leader. Trolman also sent his army in the mountains to kill the Old God which freed Silly Lil Ant's nerubians.
But something amazing happened. Alagremm opened the portal to the new world called Draenosh - the Heart of Exile. With him went Joke Master, leader of orcs and Dead-man-walking, leader of undead dwarves.
Shortly afterwards many forces have ended their quarrels and decided to go in Northrend to put an end to Lich King's reign. Grouse, Trolmania, Eluna'vi(the new united tribe of Azsure), Nerubians and Triumvirate sent their forces in Nothrend. During the battles nerubians have found a way to ressurect dead and undead using special crystals called Pylons, giving hope for saving Tiri to Trolman.
Meanwhile a new world was created by mysterious talking sheep Gyrosphinx who controlled organization called GyroCORP. The world inspired by creation of Draenosh was really small.
The united forces however were already storming Icecrown Citadel. But little did they know that the hippies have made an agreement with Lich King and saved him, putting Dranosh Saurfang in his place. However when they attacked they succeeded to kill him and recapture Tiri. Loot was shared between the victors: Alagremm got Armor of Lich King and the Helm of Dominion, Nerubians got Frostmourne and the rest have taken something of the rest for themselves.
Shorty after Trolman succeeded in reviving Tiri. Meanwhile Alagremm has taken Helm of Dominion and the armor in Draenosh, where he put them in a Crystal Throne, because he knew that the spirit of Ner'zhul is within. Soon he succeeded in redeeming him.
Using the cave full of Pylons he found, SLA unleashed a wave of reviving energy on Lordaeron, reviving all Forsaken and Scourge minions into humans who then pledged alligence to Trolmanian Empire. To unite the newfound nation he has created the city of Belene, which became the capital.
Soon the Legion has discovered Grouseland, the homeworld of Grouse and desacrated it. The arakkoa and Grouse, lead by Takakenji fled in Takakenjar Forest of Draenosh.
However Legion did not only attack Grouseland. It also attacked Azeroth. However a large force of peons defeated Archimonde, like it worked with wisps. The Legion was close to being stopped. But it was found out that Tiri has had a plan of her own. She made a pact with Old Gods that would allow them to turn Trolmanians into Faceless ones and Protoplasms to serve Trolmania. This shocked the people of both worlds and everyone became weary of Trolman's sanity.
Soon Tiri was isolated and then supposedly cleansed of corruption. Soon afterwards she gave bith to two children: Ronnie and Namalort. However while Ronnie was a human, his brother was a horrible Faceless one, showing the corruption of Tiri and Trolman.
Tleno with the help of Alagremm has teleported Tleno's Island in Draenosh for safety.
In these hard times Trolman decided to attack the only threat to his empire in Lordaeron - Zul'Aman. However this created a strong reaction of people who were angered at Trolman for attacking a peaceful force. This especially influenced Triumvirate where Takakenji and Joke Master wanted to fight Trolman for freedom of Zul'Aman. Saddened Alagremm had to begin a war against Trolman and gathered his armies next to the Draenosh side of the Twilight Portal.
Meanwhile the grouse have attacked Trolmania without orders from Alagremm. Angered Trolman destroyed the portal in Azeroth and sealed it with an artifact. However with bad things good things come. Gyrotopia has relocated its portal to Draenosh and the planet became moon of Draenosh.
However many have forgotten about the Legion which once again decided to attack the World Tree. The forces of Azeroth gathered their armies at Hyjal Summit.
However when Trolman closed Draenosh he forgot that Triumvirate's Fleet was still in Azeroth. They flew to the World Tree but were attacked by Trolmanian forces, so they only joined the defence close to the end.
Meanwhile TlenoTech has found out that there is an underground cave world under Draenosh. It was called Undersun and the city Groundrise was built in it. However soon it was found out that there is an Old God deep under and that he has began a war against Triumvirate.
In the middle of the war the daughter of Alagremm was born, named Calliope.
However as the war went on, the Trolmanian Empire suddenly attacked Draenosh with the help of the white elves. Trolman burned Karabor and then entered Undersun with Namalort. Then he gave Namalort the powers of Arauk-Nashal, the Old God of Draenosh and thought he destroyed it after which he left. Little did he know it was all Old Gods plan.
As his forces retrated to Azeroth, Triumvirate Fleet finally returned home and Karabor was rebuilt. With the Fleet white elves of Tyr'thalas came and settled in Auchior of Draenosh.
Arauk-Nashal didnt die, but was weakened. Triumvirate forces quickly imprisoned him and created the city of Uldor to keep him imprisoned under the watch of the Starseekers. After that a seal was put on Draenoish to keep people from entering it.
Soon Gyro finally joined Triumvirate and Gyrotopia became the refuge place of the tauren lead by Veljko.
Meanwhile Alagremm's daughter Calliope has travelled in Azeroth to bring peace. However when she came and Trolmania and tried to teach people the power of music and peace she was defeated and had to hide in Opera House of Belene.
During those times the Legion began another attack after Trolman captured Hyjal. Sargeras summoned him and Tiri on a battle and though was defeated killed Tiri. She was soon buried in Belene. After that Ronnie met Calliope and both have fallen in love, but Trolman separated them.
During these times a new undead force called the Fearless appeared.
After some time a new war began, this time in Outland. Even Triumvirate came to save the remaining draenei and redeem the lands. Kael'thas was defeated during this war.
Dimensional ship Oshu'gun was repaired by the Triumvirate and flew in the Nether.
Soon after the war Trolman was assasinated and died. Alagremm entered the Heaven made by Jesus Trol and showed Trolman that Tiri he had in it was just an illusion and the real one was imrpisoned and that Jesus Trol lied to him. They defeated him and Trolman got in the real world.
A lowly peon named Amargaard entered Argus at that time and has found a powerful eredar force called Protectorate, fighting the hippies who invaded Argus long ago and the demons who took control of them. Shortly after in Azeroth a strange Crystal Being appeared and help nerubians to get in Argus where they united with the Protectorate and created a new city called Argost-Ner'al for themselves.
And in Stormwind a girl named Tyrael, blessed by the Titans began her journey, but was captured by Defias Brotherhood and was saved by the Sea Legion soon. There she united with many other forces and began a war against Stormwind, now called Darkwind, controlled by evil forces.
The Fearless have been long helping the Old Gods in Northrend to free Yogg-Saron. The other part of their forces was in Kalimdor helping Cho'gall summon an Elemental Lord to destroy the World Tree thus beginning the Great Kalimdor War. The forces of Trolmania defeated Obsidious the Magam Lord in Hyjal, but C'thun was close to being freed so they went in SIlithus where a bloody nevrending war began. However with great casualties and help from the freed Fearless they won and C'thun was banished in Outland.
Meanwhile the Darkwind War continued during the great battle forces were close to being defeated especially because of the summoning of Cyäegha. However after great help from Leviathan the forces succeeded to overwhelm their enemies. Tyrael, now the Holy Queen has restored the city and began an era of peace in Azeroth.
Then Current events have turned, the Trumitive has fallen from its grace. The Trolmanian empire now lies in ruins and the Brotherhood of the Sword have risen.
The Brotherhood of the Sword is my nations, they are now a neutral good force. And will keep fighting till the end.

Heres some Terrains which are screenshots from Warcraft 3 world editor. And they are made by me.
Alright Now Down to why I am showing this too you. Recently I have hit a road block in my writing. I can't write a battle scene correctly and I am wanting to get some help from dakkadakka. And not only that but I have a chance to do some cool stuff as well. But the question remains. There is an empire Called chaos and they are going to kill everyone still (in the eastern kingdoms. The question is what should I do? Should I continue with my plots or should I interfere in other plots and get my ass kicked off again?
Plus I wanted to show dakka dakka as to why I am so super lazy on dakkadakka and haven't been on since Monday.

Mandorallen turned back toward the insolently sneering baron. 'My Lord,' The great knight said distantly, 'I find thy face apelike and thy form misshapen. Thy beard, moreover, is an offence against decency, resembling more closely the scabrous fur which doth decorate the hinder portion of a mongrel dog than a proper adornment for a human face. Is it possibly that thy mother, seized by some wild lechery, did dally at some time past with a randy goat?' - Mimbrate Knight Protector Mandorallen.

The Daily Peon ok lets go down with what it is......
The Daily Peon is based on the WC3 Frozen Throne Event. But the time line was altered by a great power (Master Peon) to see what would happen if a few great heroes arose. But instead of it evolving into WOW. IT was changed, soon a great Hero Named Trolman founded a nation called Trolmania and Alagremm rose as a Draenai.
Daily Peon is a unique roleplay in which members use terrain pictures made in Warcraft 3's World Editor instead of posts.
Right now, Daily Peon is the group with most posts and pictures on the Hive Workshop, it is also the most active group!
To join, visit the homepage ([WWW]http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/group.php?groupid=363) of the Daily Peon group and press Join Group.
Since the Daily Peon is moderated, you will need Exarch Alagremm's accept. You must have a Hive Workshop account.
Basically its an alternate Time-Line of the World of Warcraft on Steriods. We disbanded all lore after Warcraft 3 Frozen Throne, and made an epic storyline.

Wait. So it's a RPG, of a RTS, set during an alternative universe of the MMORPG?
I have to say it's probably better if you stop now.

Not that it clears anything up. Before anything else, can you explain better how the game works? If I were a player, how would I take a "turn?"
Basically we take screenshots of wc3 in a map editor but first you need to make a terrain, and there are no turns, just players making pics, though the pics take days too do and to think of a story line. Basically think of it as a newspaper article except instead of it been updated daily its weekly.
The Daily Peon is basically a bunch of collected newspapers that become a roleplay and we all work together to make a plot line and a massive campagins. Right now we are the Era of Chaos. Where chaos Gods(Warhammer reference) are going to come to azeroth. Though they are strong, the good guys usually win. Hopefully we do. Or else azeroth is screwed.
Each Player names a character after themselves but I did not my character actually died. >.> and I've taken a new empire as my own. The Brotherhood.
Basically we go into a chat room and think of some crazy plot twists and character concepts. Its not random but planned until we got like 6 new members. So we have some players that make pics just because and don't really think ahead.
If it was turn based it would make the RP so much better in my opinion but inactivity is high due to life and school.

Actually its already better than the original Azeroth Story line (in wow).
IT is a Role Playing game with RTS abilities but strategic ability doesn't mean gak apparently which is bad for me :(

Interesting phenomenon in that the more you explain, the less I understand. If you were to somehow explain this completely, I'd probably reach a state of ultimate confusion and bewilderment, almost certainly causing me to have a stroke and expire.
The lesson here is that you need to be careful, Asherian...words can kill.

The fact that I view Blizzard in general and Starcraft in specific to be plagues upon the RTS industry that have stifled the genre's creativity (along with my very public views about the "quality" of WoW) probably has something to do with my lack of a response. You know, being polite and all.

The people in the past who convinced themselves to do unspeakable things were no less human than you or I. They made their decisions; the only thing that prevents history from repeating itself is making different ones.

The game seems to have two things going on, collaborative story telling and competition between factions/characters. There's a lot of rpgs that attempt to do something similar, but they have rules to decide who's bit of storytelling trumps over anyone else's.
Without those rules, I really can't see the exercise working. I'm really not surprised you've experienced trouble, to be honest.
“We may observe that the government in a civilized country is much more expensive than in a barbarous one; and when we say that one government is more expensive than another, it is the same as if we said that that one country is farther advanced in improvement than another. To say that the government is expensive and the people not oppressed is to say that the people are rich.”

This is parkour
Correct, your post shows proper parkour, my post is 90% of people who say they do parkour. You may fall somewhere between
I do, do it. It's a blast, and I have alot of fun with it. Also has made me a popular guy ever since a group of girls saw me do it.
