In Medieval America I was king and could shoot lightning from my nostrils and then there was fire, and it burned. The End.

Honestly, back then it wasn't even CALLED "America"

In medieval america, they called it Aquilonia, and it was ruled by king Conan, who was actually a mexican, and mexicans were actually called Simmerians back then. Canada was known as Hyboria.
They made their houses out of skulls, and ate the flesh of virginal maidens.

Medieval America was a beautiful and clean country filled with freedom, hopes and dreams.

Then the white people came to the big land and made it theirs.
Now everything is completely frucked.

dude, anyone who knows a breif history of the last thousand years knows that americas medieval period was filled with Tyrannosaurs and unicorns.


(To answer this with some degree of seriousness, america hadnt been civilized during the medieval period of the eastern world, and as such never really had a medieval period....it was more of a europe asia thing...we had roving bands of stone age indians...lrn to history and die in a fire)

In all seriousness, if Theextreme's being genuine, then it isn't his fault that he's so ignorant. I'm pretty sure he's the same guy who doesn't believe in evolution because his teachers have told him it's a load of ****. I can't make fun of him because I feel so horrifically sorry for him.

Bet that teacher is a devote christian. This is part of the reason i dislike religion.

That would be a Catholic Christian. Not a protestant.
Catholics are narrow minded and listens to what the pope says.
Protestants allows people to believe and think as they please. It's their own loss.
Forcing religion and such onto people is not the way to make it right.

Actually, the pope has expressed that evolution should not be considered in conflict with christian faith.
In my personal experience, it is usually the non-catholics who doubt evolution.

Although, your point about following authority still stands.

I've heard more tales about zealots coming from protestant countries such as U.S. and England than from catholic coutries such as mine or, well, I believe all of south america.

i loled when i came back to this topic and it had 3 pages.

i dont really now what to belive in religon anymore, its all so confusing.

if god is a god, and satan is just a rouge angel; why cant he just destroy satan?

when i ask these type of questions people just call me an atheist.
Title: Re: what was medieval america like?
Post by: Darkfox on March 23, 2009, 08:25:11 PM
I don't really believe in evolution as people see it. But that's my personal standing irrelevant to teachings.
Title: Re: what was medieval america like?
Post by: Ben on March 23, 2009, 09:11:56 PM
then they dont know what an atheist is



You have about as much smarts believing in my Tyranosaurs and Unicorns as you would with that rouge angel BS.
They wrote that book when humans ate poisonous mushrooms and roots as part of their staple diets.
Seriously.....Science will save you from being such an epic moron.
Title: Re: what was medieval america like?
Post by: Darkfox on March 23, 2009, 09:25:30 PM
Science is useful but not absolute (lots of theories, basically a step above an educated guess but still a "maybe"), same the other way (religious texts) with taking everything for their literal meanings. Actually many "religious" people go AGAINST their teaching to make total jackasses of themselves. Science has lead to many great things, but bad too (atomic bomb, biological warfare, etc), same with religion (crusades, "holy wars"). But these are all in the way people use and interpret them. It's kinda ironic to go around killing for something "holy" when it is written "Thou shalt not kill". That's sad yet HILARIOUS at the same time. XD

And scientists do stupid stuff (miles long atom collider, really guys, that's STUPID! And their using OUR money to make it, STUPID! We can't use THAT!)

In all honesty I can find faults in both sides of the spectrum here. On one side I find the overly-religious damn annoying and I find the arrogantly "intelligent" to be ALSO annoying. Thus I seek a middle ground on my own self. I rely on both belief and science, which are not as different as one may think.

Edit: I remember this funny thing about some guy on YouTube saying dolphins were an example of evolution and them having a big brain and being all smart and stuff and I go "Then why do they keep getting stuck in nets and other things? Humans as stupid as they are don't do it that much. Unless Dolphins have their own show of Jackass." XD He didn't reply.

Edit 2: Though I am not sure how all this came from "medieval america". :\ Let alone why the question was asked. :/

I just thought that since europe had an age like that, 'america' would have the same.

Obviously, i hadn't actually thought about the mere stupidity of the question.

Myrdia is momentarily paused as I finish the Patchwork Engine
Warped is having computer issues
And I'm not sure what's up with Orc and Impy >_>
...
Only three?
Wow...
We need more active developers
Title: Re: what was medieval america like?
Post by: Prpl_Mage on March 24, 2009, 07:37:14 AM
Here's the thing.
Our creators care too much about the games that they are trying to surpass those who make games for money(See Meeiscool's mapping for example).
The stuff we make have usually more work put into them than the games out there using similar graphic limitations and such.
So we spend days and nights working on our games.
Spending years to work on them.
Then computers die.
You end school and realize that internet doesn't pay itself.
You get a girlfriend who only thinks you're working with pokémon-thingies.

And in the end: barely any of those games that can be found in the games section will be released anytime soon.

Maybe we should just form a charas team of sorts, and all get together to help make one awesome rpg.

Like for example.

Have someone write the story out, another code, and another guy make the graphics and maps.

I know charas may be a bit too big for that but still; it could work if we had the time.

We've tried that, and it ends up being even more difficult than a single-person project.

Basically, I can sum things up with a simple fact: no matter how many projects you've worked on, and no matter how much preparation you've done, when you start a new project you will be hit with the sudden realisation that all the resources for this thing are going to take weeks to make and you've designed the thing to be too big anyway, and you will immediately abandon the project.

Note that the Crappy Game Contest had many finished games submitted, because they were small and manageable and we could be bothered to finish them. Willpower is a bitch.

We've done a chaingame once.
There was a sequel coming to that one but no words about it.

And then Fisheron started his own chaingame, but then something happened to his computer.

The thing about forum games is that there is a lot to be done. And people aren't that good at working together. With ideas and such, it's usually a mess.
Chaingames solve that problem where you have the base plot and each person does their own part of the game and the stuff for it once it becomes that person's turn.

BACK UP YOUR **** PEOPLE.

Seriously, I only needed to learn this lesson once, and it was only a scare, nothing was lost. Also, when I think about how much time it's gonna take to finish my game, I don't get depressed, I just do what I gotta do and I work on it when I'm bored or have some time to devote, so it's not so overwhelming because I'm not worried about finishing it. That's also why progress is so slow. =P
