I say we put them in a scary "Death Maze," with crocs, needles, poisons, chainsaw wielders, etc, and then shoot them in the face when if they get out.

That dangly thing sounds pretty righteous.

The SECOND they make torture legal for convicts it shall become my lifes work to find the most painful things imaginable... I love torture heart


First, it reminded me of Takeshi's Castle aka Most eXtreme Challenge... then Running Man!

Well, its a known fact that there are several Saddam lookalikes, and there are, without doubt, many people in the area he was executed who still wanted him in power and/or still supported him in some way. The fact that the camera man moves the camera in such strategic places seems a bit off to me.

Then again, this is coming from a girl who's parents swore Saddam Hussien was chillin' in her local corner store during desert storm.


Do you think Saddam can pull a Houdini? Didn't they do the DNA test to see if it was really him when they captured him?

First the camera man was on the stairs, then he was going down the stairs to get a better shot of Saddam falling. When it went dark, he was fighting to get a close up of the body (since there was a whole audience around that area).

Lol, he's your Uncle. XD

hm, I believe in 24.

as in the TV show.

as in the belief that nothing we as the normal people of the world know about the governments and top secret stuff is true, that it's all got crap behind it that we don't know all the details about.

maybe this, maybe that. I dunno, I just think that video looked pretty fake. And I think I don't really care what really happened anyway.
You can't assume the video was fake without evidence, regardless of government corruption.

I don't doubt they captured the right man, but I have my suspicions as to whether or not he was actually the one hanged. I understand him moving about and whatnot, but seeing as I'm pretty sure a video was pretty much required to prove he was indeed assassinated...you'd think that it wouldn't have major lapses in such important areas of the execution.

And if my uncle were Saddam...well, I don't know what I'd do.

Yeah I don't think it was professional. But there were a lot of people to witness the execution and I think the camera guy wanted to get the top and the bottom of Saddam's hanging.

Lolz, ask for money? XD

I wonder how much a Halo is gonna cost since we might be able to purchase one in the future. Nothing like stirring up a huge whirlwind of debate concerning re-releasing old donation items. I'm all for the re-release. Heck, I might buy a Halo if it costs $100. xD

Also, with so many new members, of course they will demand the re-release of old donation items. It's gonna happen and Lanzer has opened a stinky can of dead worms.

I bloody well hope people will screw over gaia if they ever break *that* promise.

I also wonder how the modteam would react. Oh, how I hope half of them would give Gaia the finger, permaban a few thousand random gaians and then pack up and leave. *_*

I think a few would actually go through that. xD

But it's gonna happen or else Lanzer would have never asked that question if it wasn't already considered. D:

LOL! I've never seen this happen before. Lanzer just regretted making that poll with the community splitting bonus questions added to boot . xD

Do you ever get the feeling that your inventory has too much weird crap in it?

A year or so ago I had a dream that the Admin did something really dumb that pissed off the elitists in droves and they threw off their old donation items and left the site.

So I just picked them up here and there for like, 1-2k "finder's fees" ... It was like an MMORPG in Towns where they could discard inventory and it'd sit on the ground. I was picking up haloes. And, oddly enough, "Mini Haloes" ...

But seriously.

If someone donates $100, that's 40 letters.

40 letters at, let's be moderate, and say 15k each... the person would net $600,000

That's what, just nearly enough for almost any '04 item.

If someone donated $200--which is the maximum one can spend each month and not have their transactions locked--we could double that. 1,200,000g. Devil tails, judging from Tektek, have been fluctuating between 6.5 million and 7.5 million. Someone would have to donate $1167.50 for 467 letters to sell at 15k each, just for a Devil Tail.

Let's think about this a bit.

If I had the option of spending $100 for an item I wanted, or over $1000 for an item... I'd go the $100 route. Anyone would, unless they're CRAZY, DUMB, or TOO RICH.

Gaia could stand to lose a lot of revenue from that scheme... Sure, most people would still spend the minimum to get the current items for themselves, but I doubt little beyond that. confused
