Daily Entertainment.

IC suggestion: Write an article snippet for the Say True.

OOC suggestion: Any interesting Cubefall shenanigans to share?

Also? MPR submissions due today by 4 pm EST. Email me at milliways.npr @ gmail if more time is needed.

EDIT: 'Say True'? I'm lost. Enlighten me?

Me: :O Lilly Kane and Meg Giry started a Milliways newspaper that has since fallen by the wayside, sadly, the comm for which is here.

EDIT AGAIN HA: Emmy has a question!

Knox's byline, of course...

"When asked to comment about the 'reconfiguration' of the Bar, the Head Barman only offered a rather robotic smirk, and the Bar herself had on a wooden grin."

I probably could come up with more, but my inner reporter has been displaced by my inner cranky late dean.

Because my out of the blue idea to have Dean O'Dell reconfigured into the 1920 heavyweight champion of the world not only seems to be working, but seems likely to stick. I've been looking for that game-changing element for him, and this is it. It's drastic, but he is feeling better and more vital than he ever has, and there really is no reason why he needs to go back to being a man once on the cusp of 60 if he's dead and doesn't have to be who he was. Not to say he was unhappy with who he was. But he's looking at this as a sort of rebirth, as a chance to be something new.

It opens all sorts of possibilities, though if he comes to regret his decision, he's going to have to live with it for a while. (I plan to have him ask the vidscreens for a trial period, but it will be one or two months.)

Can I say how much I am loving what I've seen, BTW? Bravo, Cam and Geoff!!

And I think we need a ROBOT ROLL CALL!!

And that was me, BTW. Same glitch again with the auto-login in Firefox not taking. GRRRRRR.

ROBOT ROLL CALL. Now, if we only had Vision and Aaron Stack to robot!snark each other.

And Cliff Steele to ponder just which continuity he's in this week.

Ah, okay. I've been here two years and I don't think I ever knew that! Thanks for the editing the post - I'm sure newer players will appreciate it.

Yes. And, of course, the Metal Men! Tin and Mercury snark!

(I'm not sure if I like Copper yet.)

PS - Wait, didn't Cliff get his head torn off by Knockout in Gail Simone's Secret Six stuff last year?

That sounds accurate, though I have yet to read that. But he's easily and frequently rebuilt.

I really wanted to do something with Knox to revive at least the illusion of the paper, but it seemed like too much of a commitment. I love the idea, but given my limited time for RP and for OOMs that never get written already, I left the idea alone. If I ever get cloned and can assign one of me to RP full time, though, the paper will return!

The page where it happened was rather funny, because his last words (before reassembly) were "Oh, it's ON now, honey......AAAAAAAGHHHHHHHHHHH!"

Wow. I have a lot of robot icons.

I once had the idea that She-Hulk would provide free legal consulting services for patrons at Milliways, since she's got some experience in multiversal justice administration, but that kind of fell by the wayside. But think of the possibilities if Milliways had a paper and a resident attorney on hand! I have this vision of Knox asking her to comment on cases and her retorting about attorney-client privilege.

I know. It totally took me by surprise a few weeks ago! TWO YEARS.

Aaron Stack, oh man.

"My robot brain needs beer!"

Suffer, fleshy one.

"Suffer, fleshy one."

AND:

"Suck my blinky diodes."

HI STEPH. There may or may not be something coming your way for MPR; I am not sure. This was the problem with not recording on my computer.

Cubefall has been highly entertaining to watch!

I go nap at my desk now. Hurg.

... Kali? That would be kind of amazing.

Ooooh.

My journalist girl might be interested in doing something with that :)

I really need to pick up the second Nextwave TPB.

...maybe when I go to pick up She-Hulk and YA: Presents today.

Really? :-D I'm ready, willing, and able at any time.
