Welcome Class, to Room 666...Again

[X-Chick]

I'd feel dumb and I don't think I could get away with it.

[Abaddon]

Par-tay

[X-Chick]

Couldn't find any decent ones. :csad:

[Assassin32]

What are the exact rules when it comes to giving credit for an adapted screenplay? Like if you wrote a script about a man's life, and used an overwhelming amount of sources to piece your story together, do you list credit for all the little sources or what? I ask because I know that Oliver Stone's screenplay for "Nixon" is considered an original screenplay. So, do you know the rules? Are there definate rules?

[The Spawn]

What are the little sources....?

[LexCorp]

Has anyone ever noticed how for some radio stations they play police sirens in the background...:wow:

I swear I was listening to Kiss 100 (UK Station) and they kept playing it in the background just loud enough so you could here it. But then it would stop and then start up again....I have heard this over at least three stations.

Seems like a good idea as when I heard it I became more aware while driving, not that I was speeding but I felt more on edge as I heard that siren.

[The Spawn]

What were the other two stations?

[Kelly]

Hype hasn't changed much in the past year. It changed the most with the addition of all the mods. We used to just have two and things were a lot smoother then. Most of the cool peoples left around that time and then newbies invaded like crazy and now here we are.

Really though, I don't care much about it. I stick around here because I know you three are decent and I've known Abaddon and Spawn for a while and stuffs. As for the other threads out there, I just don't bother with them.

And Spawnie, some of your threads might lean towards the stupid side, but yeah, if they don't like it, they don't have to ****ing read it. They just think they're "cool" by "flaming" people on an internet message board. Though very few remember how to deliver a verbal *****slap with efficiency and just end up looking like a bunch of idiot noobs...which is what they are.


Hmmmmm, I wasn't going to vote, but I think I will now....:o :dry:

Hell, I might even campaign now....

[DOG LIPS]

:eek:

[hammy]

Has anyone ever noticed how for some radio stations they play police sirens in the background...:wow:

Here, they are always playing things that sound like cell phones ringing. It's really annoying. :cmad:

[†~AntiChrist~†]

can somone tell me what THE REAL POINT of this thread is???

[hammy]

Smells like children?! :eek:

:(

[Abaddon]

stop stalking me.

[†~AntiChrist~†]

Heh......So what is it??

[Abaddon]

you'd probably figure it out if you read through the first few pages

[†~AntiChrist~†]

Is their somthing to talk about??????

[Abaddon]

is there something you'd like to talk about?

[hammy]

stop stalking me.

Well......im bored...

[X-Chick]

Hmmmmm, I wasn't going to vote, but I think I will now....:o :dry:

Hell, I might even campaign now....

Ha, thanks. :dry:

The rest of you, Spawn especially, should vote my way. :heart: Mostly because I remember what the Hype was like when it was still awesome.

[†~AntiChrist~†]

Where do i vote???
and if you do win, what happens??

[X-Chick]

Where do i vote???
and if you do win, what happens??

There's going to be a Hype Presidential election Tuesday. There will be a thread in the Community with a poll. Really, not much happens if we win, except we win a Hype Survivor Challenge.

[†~AntiChrist~†]

Alright...So i guess ill vote for you..

[X-Chick]

Thanks. :up:

[†~AntiChrist~†]

Any of you guys like cradle of filth?

[The Spawn]

Never really understood these Survivor games....I was in one but got taken out unfairly.

I've been the topic for a lot of challenges...

I'd vote for you, but I'm trying to be involved with only two topics here.

[Assassin32]

What are the little sources....?

Elements from 5 different books, a bunch of videos on YouTube, an HBO documentary, Showtime boxing telecasts, a DVD documentary from Wal-Mart's $5 bin, ESPN Classic's Ringside program, an article I found in the Sacramento Bee, some articles I found on NY Times online, and my memories of news reports I heard over the years.

[Abaddon]

You havent been around in some time.

[†~AntiChrist~†]

How do you get put in these challenges??

[Abaddon]

it's not you, don't worry about it.

[†~AntiChrist~†]

......whatever....

[Abaddon]

you edited.:o


you sign up for survivor whenever there's a new game.

[†~AntiChrist~†]

Oh okay, thanks:)

[Assassin32]

You havent been around in some time.

Me?

[Abaddon]

yes you.:o

[†~AntiChrist~†]

"assassin32" you posted here yesterday didnt you??

[Assassin32]

I think it was a few days ago. Just because I'm not posting as much, that doesn't mean I haven't been around.

[Abaddon]

I haven't seen you around.:o

[Assassin32]

I'll make sure to say hi every now and again.

[Abaddon]

That's considerate.

[†~AntiChrist~†]

.......heh...

[LexCorp]

Here, they are always playing things that sound like cell phones ringing. It's really annoying. :cmad:

It's a big scam to get us to panic and slow down in our cars

[The Spawn]

I got placed into Toven's Survivor...I didn't sign up.

She said something about boosting ratings.

[Assassin32]

Spawn:

[The Spawn]

You nearly confused me.

[†~AntiChrist~†]

Nearly?? now im confused..

[The Spawn]

I got pulled over the other day.

Cop said I didn't have my headlights on.

At night, my headlights are always on.

I told him to get in front of my car and tell me if they're on now and he said "Yeah".

WTF...

DWB man, DWB

[†~AntiChrist~†]

Heh....thats weird...the same thing happened to my friend a few weeks ago..

[The Spawn]

I think it was a rookie in training.

The younger dude was the one doing all the talking.

[The Spawn]

Assassin32...what was your question again?

I thought you were joking when you spoke to me.

[The Spawn]

A screenplay and let's say someone's autobiography that it is based on doesn't mean it's stolen.

[Assassin32]

The question was would it be considered an original screenplay or an adapted screenplay. And, if adapted, who do I need to give credit to.

[†~AntiChrist~†]

A screenplay of what?

[X-Chick]

If it has never been done before, it'd be original. If someone else has written a screenplay, novel, story or play about it, it's adapted. You'd give credit to whomever authored the original work.

Also, what does DWB mean? :huh:

[Assassin32]

Driving while black, I assume.

The particular story I crafted is original, so I guess that's it. But I borrowed plenty of anecdotes and quotations from a number of different autobiographies, interviews and articles, so I still feel unsure about it.

[X-Chick]

I would simply credit some of the sources at the end.

[Assassin32]

Like "WITH ACKNOWLEDGEMENT TO THE WORKS OF . . . "

[†~AntiChrist~†]

That would be suitable...

[The Spawn]

More than suitable.

[Abaddon]

How many kids do you gots, Spawnsington?

[The Spawn]

0.

It'd be cruel to bring a human being into this world.

[Abaddon]

so you're pro-abortion?:o

[The Spawn]

I'm pro-celibacy.

[Abaddon]

i hear they invented birth control some time ago.

[The Spawn]

Very funny.

[Abaddon]

I try.

[The Spawn]

Try harder.

[Abaddon]

Not worth the effort.

[The Spawn]

Exactly.

So don't try to begin with.

[Abaddon]

Nothing wrong with trying for the hell of it.

[Arkady Rossovich]

I have always wondered..what is this thread for?

[The Spawn]

The classics and the originals.

[Abaddon]

random.

[†~AntiChrist~†]

Thats what i asked before........

[X-Chick]

It's so annoying that people are too lazy to read the first page or so, yet they have the energy and time to make a useless post they'll never bother to check again.

Spawnie, I hardly believe you're pro-celibacy. Sex serves purposes other than procreation.

[The Spawn]

There is nothing in this world that can't be attained via something else.

Well, there is one thing.

And other than that thing there is no thing.

[Assassin32]

So, you're pro-masterbation?

[X-Chick]

Sex isn't only about release either. It's about passion, anger, love, hate, some of the most primal urges humans have, and whatever else you want it to be.

Also, what is the only thing you mentioned?

[†~AntiChrist~†]

This is a strange topic of choice...

[X-Chick]

Sex? Not really. At least not for us.

[†~AntiChrist~†]

its not for me either...im just saying it was strange to bring this up on a comic forum thats all.......

[X-Chick]

In the Community, comics are rarely discussed. That kinda talk sticks to the comic forums.

[†~AntiChrist~†]

Okay.....Continue on then....

[The Spawn]

Seeing as how I have never masturbated in my life, no, I am not pro-masturbation.

In fact, I'm anti-masturbation.

[†~AntiChrist~†]

What?..... your a virgin??

[X-Chick]

No, he's not a virgin. He's just weird.

[†~AntiChrist~†]

right......

[Abaddon]

I bet Spawnsie loves Dostoyevskytewxczwhatevah

[X-Chick]

Right what?

And huh?

:huh:

[Abaddon]

fugghet about it.:o

[†~AntiChrist~†]

Right as in saying ("okay")............

[X-Chick]

It seemed sarcastic.

[†~AntiChrist~†]

It wasnt meant to come across that way........really....:cwink:

[X-Chick]

Heh. No offense, but you're probably what...like 15ish?...and you're mocking Spawn's sexual prowess. That's kind of funny.

He's really not a virgin, though. He's just trying to be all holier-than-thou. :whatever:

[The Spawn]

Purer....purer than thou.

[†~AntiChrist~†]

I will never be "holy"...........

[The Spawn]

You will be one day my son....just you wait.

[†~AntiChrist~†]

HAH....:cwink:

[The Spawn]

What do you do for a living and in your free time?

[†~AntiChrist~†]

Well now I work at "big w"....and my free time is mainly spent doing nothing but dying my hair and listening to metal......

[The Spawn]

What color?

[†~AntiChrist~†]

Black......

[The Spawn]

Why the dots?

[†~AntiChrist~†]

I always include them in my post.....In every post of mine you WILL see full stops...I dont know why i do it..

[†~AntiChrist~†]

hey spawn you like nightmare before christmas??

[Abaddon]

the scorpion??

[X-Chick]

What's with the "hail Satan" stuff? I mean, you know he's not real, right?

[†~AntiChrist~†]

No.....hes real:woot:

[X-Chick]

Actually, he's not. He was invented by the Roman Catholic church during the Council of Nicaea, in which they basically laid the ground rules for Christianity: content, beliefs, cannon, etc. Satan was invented to scare people into believing in their god and follow their commandments.

[Abaddon]

In the earliest depictions Satan was on God's side. Not so much with the corrupting the innocent.

[X-Chick]

Later they spun it so that Lucifer, as he was called then, tried to take over the throne of Heaven so God punished him for it. I suppose they never realized the contradiction in one of God's own turning on him.

[†~AntiChrist~†]

Go on this site...http://www.churchofsatan.com/home.html to find out other information....

Anyway...Have you guys seen cradle of fear?? One of the sickest movies ever...It has "Dani Filth" in it..

[X-Chick]

I'd rather read a history book than some propaganda site.

No, I have not.

[†~AntiChrist~†]

Did you even look at the site??

[X-Chick]

Yes, it's no worse than Christianity, but it's impossible to have a logical conversation with most Christians.

That Cradle of Fear movie, it sounds dumb. Are you sure its good? And how do I know if you have good taste in movies? I don't feel like wasting another $5 at Blockbuster.

[†~AntiChrist~†]

Well....If you like lots of gore and and death metal then you would..Do you??

[X-Chick]

I like plot and good acting more.

[Abaddon]

have you seen Pan's Labyrinth?:)

[X-Chick]

No, I've heard both good and bad things. Did you see it?

[†~AntiChrist~†]

Pans labyrinth is fully subtitled isnt it??

[X-Chick]

What band is he from?

[†~AntiChrist~†]

:I edited:

....Hes from cradle of filth..http://www.cradleoffilth.com/Images/Dan/Dani_Filth____METAL.jpg

[Abaddon]

It's subtitled, yeah. It's a really good film. It's like a dark fairytale.

[X-Chick]

Oh. He looks like a Marylin Manson wannabe. :o

And yeah, Pan's Labyrinth is spoken in Spanish.

[Abaddon]

He looks like one of the Batman Beyond Jokerz.:o

[X-Chick]

Yeah, that too. :o

I should probably rent Pan's Labyrinth. Any other recommendations?

[†~AntiChrist~†]

See saw 4...

[X-Chick]

Oh god no. The first was decent...2nd was bad and I imagine 3 and 4 are terrible.

[†~AntiChrist~†]

3 & 4 are great!!!:cwink:

[Abaddon]

I didn't care much for any of them.

Actually I think I just watched the first.

[X-Chick]

Horror movies as a whole are all terrible now and have been for at least the past ten years.

[†~AntiChrist~†]

Well...Whats you fave horror movie??

[X-Chick]

Halloween.

[†~AntiChrist~†]

Michael was alright....Not very "scary" though...

[BAH HUMBBUG!]

Horror movies as a whole are all terrible now and have been for at least the past ten years.

Have you seen Event Horizon? Came out around 10 years ago. Maybe a little more. Or Bug? Very distrurbing. especially if you have or had mental issues.

[The Spawn]

Given the things I do know...why wouldn't I know what Nightmare Before Christmas is?

And Pan is overrated.

[X-Chick]

Michael was alright....Not very "scary" though...

None of them are scary. Michael at least has character depth.

Have you seen Event Horizon? Came out around 10 years ago. Maybe a little more. Or Bug? Very distrurbing. especially if you have or had mental issues.

Bug is like #3 on the stupidest movies of all-time list. Right after Blair Witch and Jeeper's Creepers...Solaris and The Grudge are up there too. Event Horizon was...entertaining, but I wouldn't call it a "good" movie.

[BAH HUMBBUG!]

None of them are scary. Michael at least has character depth.



Bug is like #3 on the stupidest movies of all-time list. Right after Blair Witch and Jeeper's Creepers...Solaris and The Grudge are up there too. Event Horizon was...entertaining, but I wouldn't call it a "good" movie.

No way, Poty Tang is above all of those on the stupidest movies list. And Beverly Hills Cop 3

[Assassin32]

Despite all the Oscar nominations, Pan's Labyrinth is actually underrated.

Spawn, explain the writer's strike and what it means please.

[X-Chick]

No way, Poty Tang is above all of those on the stupidest movies list. And Beverly Hills Cop 3

Never saw either. Generally I don't watch movies if they are obviously stupid and/or bad.

[†~AntiChrist~†]

None of them are scary. Michael at least has character depth.

Jeepers creepers was average in my opinion..

[TBadora]

Someone just took advantage of my drunk-ness. I am not capable of rational thought right now...

[†~AntiChrist~†]

Heh...

[X-Chick]

The word would be "drunkenness" and why do we care about your inebriated state? :huh:

[†~AntiChrist~†]

Who took advantage????????

[The Kingpin]

Who are you?

[The Spawn]

The writers strike means...re-runs galore.

[Assassin32]

If a human were to spend a lot of time very close to the sun's rays, could they make his skin transparent?

[Abaddon]

he'd die of cancer first.

[TBadora]

"I'm not singing until this puppy's limbs are torn off!" - MM

[The Spawn]

Abaddon is correct.

[X-Chick]

No, he'd die of dehydration first. :huh:

[Abaddon]

assuming he doesn't have access to water.:o

[Assassin32]

Is there any imaginable way that he wouldn't get cancer?

[X-Chick]

Yes. He could just be lucky enough to not get it. It's not like it's a guaranteed result. Or he could use like 100SPF sunblock.

[The Spawn]

There is no such thing as 100SPF sunblock.

But he could get lucky.

So I was watching the movie mentioned here:
http://forums.superherohype.com/showthread.php?t=289711

and it says Jesus was fabricated. Now I know there are obvious similarities with much older mythological figures, but this is probably the first refutation of his existence I've heard.

[Assassin32]

In that case, his skin would become transparent, and he'd walk around with his internal organs on full display?

[The Spawn]

It stops after 30 spf.

[Once and Future]

Wow, youre still around Spawn??? It's good to see some individuals can't be silenced.

Carry on old friend.

[The Spawn]

Just as your sig says.

[Abaddon]

Operation Paperclip (also credited as Project Paperclip) was the code name under which the U.S. intelligence and military services extracted German scientists from Nazi Germany, during and after the final stages of World War II. In 1945 the Joint Intelligence Objectives Agency was established and given direct responsibility for Operation Paperclip.[1]

Osenberg List

Following the German failure of Operation Barbarossa and the entry of the US into WWII, the strategic position of Germany was at a disadvantage since German military industries were unprepared for a long war. As a result, Germany began efforts in spring 1943 to recall scientists and technical personnel from combat units where their skills could be used in research and development:[2]
“ Overnight, Ph.D.s were liberated from KP duty, masters of science were recalled from orderly service, mathematicians were hauled out of bakeries, and precision mechanics ceased to be truck drivers. - Dieter K. Huzel ”

The recall effort first required identifying such personnel and then tracking them (particularly for loyalty), which culminated in the Osenberg List by Werner Osenberg, a University of Hannover engineering scientist who headed the Wehrforschungsgemeinschaft (English: Military Research Association).[3] In March 1945, a Polish laboratory technician found the shredded pieces of the Osenberg List in a toilet that hadn't flushed properly.[4] US Army Major Robert B Staver, Chief of the Jet Propulsion Section of the Research and Intelligence Branch of the US Army Ordance in London, subsequently used the Osenberg list to compile the Black List, the code name for the list of scientists targeted for interrogation, with the rocket scientist Wernher von Braun's name at the top.[5]

Operation Overcast

The original unnamed plan to interview only the rocket scientists changed after Major Staver sent a cable (signed by Colonel Joel Holmes)[4] to the Pentagon on May 22 1945 of the urgency to evacuate the German technicians and their families as "important for Pacific war."[4] Likewise, an equally strong desire was to deny German expertise to the Soviet Union.[6] In the Operation Alsos case of Werner Heisenberg, the head of the German nuclear energy project: "…he was worth more to us than ten divisions of Germans."[6]

In addition to scientists specialising in rocketry and Nuclear physics, various Allied teams were also searching for experts in chemistry, medicine, and naval weapons. An effort that predated Overcast was the US Navy's acquisition in May 1945 of Dr. Herbert A. Wagner, who was initially employed at a Long Island NY mansion[7] and then at Naval Air Station Point Mugu in 1947.

The majority of the scientists were involved with the V-2 rocket, and the rocket group was initially housed with their families at a housing project in Landshut Bavaria. Operation Overcast was designated by the US Joint Chiefs of Staff on July 19, 1945,[5] but when the nickname "Camp Overcast" was being openly used for the housing, the code name was changed to Paperclip.[5][4]

By 1958, many aspects of Paperclip had become common knowledge. It was openly mentioned in a Time magazine article about von Braun.[8]

Groups of scientists

In early August 1945, Colonel Holger N. Toftoy, chief of the Rocket Branch in the Research and Development Division of Army Ordnance, offered initial one-year contracts to the rocket scientists. After Toftoy agreed to take care of their families, 127 scientists accepted the offer. In September 1945, the first group of seven rocket scientists arrived from Germany at Fort Strong in the US: Wernher von Braun, Erich W. Neubert, Theodor A. Poppel, August Schultze, Eberhard F. M. Rees, Wilhelm Jungert and Walter Schwidetzky.[4] Eventually the rocket scientists arrived at Fort Bliss, Texas for rocket testing at White Sands Proving Grounds as "War Department Special Employees."[2]

In early 1950, legal status for some "Paperclip Specialists" was obtained when visas were issued[5] at the US consulate in Ciudad Juarez, Mexico; from which the scientists legally entered the US.[2] In later decades, some scientists' WWII wartime activities were investigated -- Arthur Rudolph was linked to the Mittelbau-Dora slave labor, and Hubertus Strughold was implicated in Nazi human experimentation.

Eighty-six aeronautical experts were transferred to Wright Field, which had also acquired aircraft and other equipment under Operation Lusty.[9]

The United States Army Signal Corps employed 24 specialists -- including physicists Drs. Georg Goubau, Gunter Guttwein, Georg Hass, Horst Kedesdy, and Kurt Levovec; physical chemists Professor Rudolf Brill and Drs. Ernst Baars and Eberhard Both; geophysicist Dr. Helmut Weickmann; technical optician Dr. Gerhard Schwesinger; and electronics engineers Drs. Eduard Gerber, Richard Guenther and Hans Ziegler.[1]

The United States Bureau of Mines employed seven German synthetic fuel scientists in a Fischer-Tropsch chemical plant in Louisiana, Missouri in 1946.[2]

In 1959, 94 Paperclip individuals went to the US, including Friedwardt Winterberg, Hans Dolezalek, and Friedrich Wigand.[7] Through 1990, Paperclip acquired a total of 1,600 personnel,[7] with the "intellectual reparations" taken by the U.S. and the UK (mainly German patents and industrial processes) valued at close to $10 billion.[10]

[The Spawn]

Ah, WWII, some interesting things happened.

[X-Chick]

Yeah, I'm reading this book now...it's fiction but it's about the Amber Room and it's quite interesting.

[The Spawn]

What is your avatar?

[X-Chick]

It's from an anime.

[The Spawn]

Which one...?

[X-Chick]

Naruto...do you even watch anime?

[The Spawn]

Wow.

What kinda question is that?

I just finished Basilisk for your information.

[X-Chick]

I don't know. You don't seem like the type. Did you like it? I've heard its awesome.

[The Spawn]

I liked Shinobi....which is pretty much this but animated...

I really liked Basilisk...but I'm not sure it's in my top with Trigun or Gungrave.

[X-Chick]

Trigun is one I could never get into. I tried, it just never worked for me. I guess that's the beauty of anime though...most are so radically different from each other, everyone will find some they love and some they hate.

[The Spawn]

Which ones do you love?

[X-Chick]

Naruto is probably the only one I love. But I like several others. Bleach is great, but there is way too much filler. It drags on too much and I lose interest. Same with Inuyasha. Full Metal Alchemist I liked a lot, it had a great plot, but the ending (movie included) left a little to be desired. There's countless others I like...Ghost in the Shell, Paranoia Agent, Trinity Blood, Gundam, etc.

[The Spawn]

So basically whatevers on cartoon network.

[Abaddon]

Ghost in the Shell(the movie) is overrated.

[X-Chick]

So basically whatevers on cartoon network.

I don't recall Gundam or Trinity Blood being on CN. Though, I rarely watch it. I actually prefer my anime in the original Japanese. CN edits too much out and the Japanese versions usually have better dialogue.

Ghost in the Shell(the movie) is overrated.

The movie pales in comparison to the anime, but the series itself got cold over time.

[The Spawn]

Which Gundam thought?

[X-Chick]

Any, though Gundam Wing may have been on Cartoon Network at one point. I'm not really sure.

[The Spawn]

Yes.

It's the only Gundam on CN that I actually watched.

The only Gundam I like.

[X-Chick]

It's my favorite of them. You should try watching it in Japanese.

Do you ever train with weapons? If so, what kind?

[The Spawn]

Every kind.

Firearms I don't toy with too much.

[Abaddon]

don't you live in Joisey?

[X-Chick]

Every possible kind of weapon? That seems a bit impossible. Guns I don't **** with at all...can't stand them really.

I'm thinking of trying my hand at kodachi next...any experience with those?

[The Spawn]

Yes, I do live in Jersey...is that a joke about crime or something?

And kodachi are boring.

[X-Chick]

Boring? How do you figure that? Fighting with two blades is never boring. :o

[The Spawn]

What if the blades are dull?

[X-Chick]

It's still an interesting way of training or fighting. And you never answered my question.

[The Spawn]

I said it was dull.

[X-Chick]

No, you posed a hypothetical situation.

[X-Chick]

How ridiculous...

[The Spawn]

The truth usually is.

[X-Chick]

No, it's the absurdities of the human mind that are often ridiculous. The truth is usually just unexpected.

[The Spawn]

Damn, better late than never.

[Abaddon]

Truth takes time.

[X-Chick]

No, I just like making people wait.

[The Spawn]

Bull ****ing ****.

I like Abaddons reasoning better since it's taken from Alias.

[X-Chick]

Alias is a stupid show. And what reason do you have to question my statement or my actions?

[Abaddon]

You're a stupid show.:cmad:

[X-Chick]

I'm a show? :huh:

[Abaddon]

Aren't we all?:huh:

[X-Chick]

Perhaps.

[Iceburgeruk]

Who is familiar with that true story from 1937 of a mass disappearance?

Where Colonel Li Fu Sein sent 3000 chinese soldiers with a great deal of artillery and orders to fight to the death to combat the japanese forces near an important bridge near the Yangtse river.

The colonel retired to hq and waited for the japanese attack. At dawn and aide franticly woke him and told him they could not contact the soldiers. They immediatly set off to investigate and found the men`s guns but all 3000 had vanished. There was no sign of fighting or trouble and sentries on the bridge nearby reported that no one had crossed the bridge in the night.

So the japanese forces were in the one direction and the bridge in the other. If they had gone one way the japanese would have attacked them and a battle would have occured. If they had gone the otehr way the sentries would have spotted them or at the very least a couple of soldiers would have eventually turned up once they reached other chinese forces.

When the war was over the japanese themeselves had no record of the 3000 men.

So where did they go?

[The Spawn]

Handpicked paranormal paraphernalia is what lies in Room 666.

[The Spawn]

Ice, you lost me at "So the japanese forces were in the one direction and...."

But regardless, I haven't heard that story.

But I can probably tell you what happened to the 3000 men.

























































Cold feet.

[Abaddon]

just like those poor Roanoke folk.:(

[Iceburgeruk]

Ice, you lost me at "So the japanese forces were in the one direction and...."

But regardless, I haven't heard that story.

But I can probably tell you what happened to the 3000 men.

























































Cold feet.

Well the basic breakdown is they never turned up again. 3000 soldiers never turned up again. If they had got cold feet then surely they would have gone home to their families and so there would be evidence that they had simply wussed out. No one knows what happened to them hence they can`t have retreated.

(I only have a small article on it in a book about the incident but i gather that for the 3000 men to wuss out they would HAVE to cross that bridge in plain sight of the sentries. And if they got past that they were at the point of a counterattack against the japanese, if they retreated they would have met their own forces in entrenched positions.)
