Forums / The hangaround / Goodbye VU from Samulis

For 12 eras have I tread wearily upon this land, and from those eras have I learned what many will take a lifetime to fully learn and appriciate. I have learned how to fight with courage, how to respect both your friends and your enemies, and that sometimes, a good joke is better than a good battle. I have learned that the world out there is not just cruel corporations and corrupt richies, but a land of diversity, both in cultures and in ideas. However, any person who says that this world cannot work together has been proven wrong. Each era I have stood is more evidence that we, people from the furthest reaches of this world, can work together under the circumstances of only a mere game.

I have learned that respect is before honor and honor is based on not only performance, but loyalty to oneself and ones kin. I have traveled and fought under many banners, and I will always remember those people who have both defeated me, died alongside me, and sometimes, survived with me. I would like to thank my first KD that I joined, Army of Darkness for what you have taught me (if there are any of you left), among many others who I will mention below.

I know I am still a new-player by most standards, for 12 eras is still young against those of 20 and 25, but I have lasted atleast a year in this game, and will always remember what I learned, no matter what rank and what office I achived or won. Winning is not what has been important to me, showing effort and achiving respect in this game have always been my goals. Many players have been far better role-models then me, almost holding their own as model-vu'ers. I do feel it is my duty to stand up and appolgise to any who I have offended over the eras, and any who I have defeated who I later realized that peace could have been an outcome more favorable, I am also sorry. I am very thankful to all the leaders I have worked with and all the players I have befriended.

Sincerely,

-Sir Samulis

Just so I can completely bore you to death, I will now post some sort writings I have done over the corse of the game, which will be visible in my histories.

---------

So it began...

As darkness rolled back, the first signs of light appeared over the now united land. Glorious light, it was! Alas, even the eyes of the gods let tears down! These tears filled the lowest valleys and cracks of the land, making a great system of lakes. Next game the Great God, ZeTa, in all his glory and he creatith all the races of this land, Men, Elves, Dwarves, Trolls, and Orcs. He built many fine bridges, and he pushed the land, making many fine mountains. Then he flew over-head in his golden chariot and threw down the Essance of Life, followed by Seeds of Glory, which took root and formed the many fine forests of this land. He then gently took each of the races and scattered them, minding carefully to put those together whom belonged together, and set up a fair field of which the allies could battle for Death and Glory.

"I am sorry, both to you, and to my kingdom mates. I have been out camping and hunting in the local mountains this whole past week, and came back to find my fiefdom decimated to the last man and child. I have cursed those wicked men who have brought this upon us, Rebirth shall never be Reborn. Re-awoken, they will never be. And forever shall they rest under the mountains of shadow and humility till the ending of this world and unto the next. I curse them, one time for each poor defenceless peasant they slaughtered at the gates of Arlidor, one time for each archer they threw down from the golden walls with their hideous beasts. I fear this is the fall of one of the greatest regimes ever to exist, my friend. I fear, this is the end..."

-Sir Verendurus The Tafflinicronian, Era 41

I, Samulis De Imparus, Son of Samulis the Noble, have prepared my armies for the march. To the south, a threat rizes, one I am unsure of in how they shall affect me. Thy kingdom of thee worms, they call it. His army stands outside of New Samersania, I have sent a messager to him explaining that we are not at war, I am unsure of the outcome, but I hope it is not as bad as it appears... The Cruxadeur Army is prepared to the north, one last valiant march to glory I shall give if I must... if not, well then, farwell thee fair ladies.

-Samulis De Imparus, Era 37

Farewell, my friends... until our paths cross yet again, if ever. I will never forget what I have learned.

-Samulis the Noble, Era 43

Sir Samulis I salute you.

May your road through life be varied and joyous.

the Doctor

"Lord/Sir Resistance, for teaching me the power of Elves." <3

your just mad cuz ur a nobody!

As always, Aries. ;)

And M'Lady, that was because he froze my army in place (when I actually did have MUs in it...) in my own teratory only a tick away from a city I badly needed to support... and the fact that he rof'ed every army that tried to attack my city for me, including a 20k one of nearly entirely catapults.

Oh, and one other special thanks.

Thanks to Mr. Manwe, wherever and whoever you are now, for teaching me the power of storytelling and the love of Lord of the Rings.

I would have thought of them as more as news about the game, but whatever. ;)

bye samuel

what a sexy guy in that pic

good thing you didnt cum

O____o  For teh lulz?

I've been around quite a bit longer...

Wait a second... didn't you conquer as well? ;)

I was an important person in the 'RP over GP (game-play)' movement! All my cities had fantasy names of my own design and my armies were based off of those of fantasy kingdoms also of my own design... That also ment I never got above rank 100, but hey, it was fun...

And I am one of the few who has managed to prove that Humans, with great practice and experiance, can actually have worth afterall (although I never quite managed to find what was worthy about them...)

And I am one of the few who has managed to prove that Humans, with great practice and experiance, can actually have worth afterall (although I never quite managed to find what was worthy about them...)


Gief the guy a medal!

You can't forget Ali in that Peng :)

wilbur.. Ali did great stuff, but he didnt get over the max so zeta would fuck up. That era me and kai we were owning everything.

Let's make this nice and obvious by writing out exactly what this 'argument' is over:

My stance: I am leaving. Bye everyone, I tried hard early on, but I just don't have that time anymore to play the game. Best of luck to everyone, thanks to my teammates and such.

I believe Wilover made the mistake of seeing it as: Hey guys! I'm leaving, I don't need to stick around with stupid people. I don't know anyone who plays now, so I won't play anymore!

Thus, I have drawn the conclusion that Wilover responded without taking enough time to read and understand the full metaphorical and figurative meaning of the word choices and order, thus rendering his replies NULL AND VOID and/or INCOMPLETE (failing to follow the topic or re-introduced topic sufficiently), more as criticism of my achivements, no matter how small or weak they may appear to be.

If I am correct, then perhaps this will put the record straight, if not, then this was probabily a way to achive 'fun' by the pointless annoyance of others who are in a less formitable position.

"And I am one of the few who has managed to prove that Humans, with great practice and experiance [as written above, 12 eras is not consitered a 'great amount of practice', and I openly admitted to never reaching above 100th, showing lack of experiance], can actually have worth afterall (although I never quite managed to find what was worthy about them...[clearly re-enforces that I am not good enough to be a master, or even any sort of world figure of the Human Race])"   -Samulis the Noble

Please do not post any more on this subject, if you can't get over it, mail me in-game please so this topic can stay on-track.

And don't think just because i'm leaving now doesn't mean I won't be able to come back in a week... or a month... or a year... In fact, I probably will return next summer. :D

Does anyone have anything NOT having to do with the following? If so, post away!

A. Humans being a race that needs help.

B. Samulis being a person that needs help (mentally/counciling or other...)

C. Why two arrogant people should never talk to each other, much less try to out-do each other.

D. How great Penguin is at playing human (it's true...) :D

E. Why ZeTa made changes to the races.

tl;dr

-If I quit, I wouldn't care what anyone said...it is an online game ffs. 
-You can call me Charley.  What is your name? ;) 
-Strict? :|  Not sure about that, but VU has so many "I Quit" threads through the eras, that basically making one is an invite for flames if you haven't been playing for 40 eras.
-Septim made like 5 "I quit" joke threads and they normally involved him leaving for like 30 seconds and he returned.  Septim never quit...he still lurks.
-This topic says "Goodbye VU from Samulis" so if you want a discussion, you are offtopic in your own topic :-| 

Touche, and a fine blow at that, Charley.

Just call me Samulis, if you like, though Arlidorius and Lord Cartographer also do. If Samulis is hard to remember (which I find is often the case with many people I end up talking with), Sam is ok as well, though I may not realize you're talking to me... :(

You've always been a bit stricter than someone like... erm... Septim... I mean that you like your RPGs and such crisp, clean, and understandable (in relation to the great discussions of Sp@malot. No Draedangaarths of Halderaiscreston or anything of that matter. I used to write things like that, but I quickly realized that people don't like big names (although I enjoy using them to confuse my enemies and allies alike)...

Unless you want to say goodbye (for however short this interim may be), I guess that ends all teh lolz for today...
