WCP Nitpicking

I have to mention this because i havent seen anyone else say this before.

Its regarding Blair's death/disappearance which i know we arent supposed to talk about but seeing as a few of you guys, including LOAF, said something i just have to mention this so please hear me out... i am not starting an arguement...

Did any of you guys see that in the end cut-scene when the bugs' gate started to blow up etc etc. that one of the towers actually breaks off and bounces off the side of the dreadnought and floats through the wormhole to the other side??? now, why would they have shown this except to create an opening for blair's re-appearance? i know that "opening" doesnt mean that they would have said he was alive or anything but i think its quite the coincidence.... not only that i believe that the second prophecy game would have made it that blair somehow joins the bugs and becomes their leader (whether under their control or not) similar to what happened to jean-luc picard in star trek with the borg... this would create a central figure for the bugs and someone the cast can interact with rather than faceless bugs, movies usually require this for better story depth.... like in wing commander 2, they introduced thrakath to help develop more depth to the trilogy.... before that there was no shown leader... no central bad guy. i think this is what they would have done.... it would have shocked fans and made them have to try and eventually kill their beloved hero of the confederation! or perhaps try to free him like luke skywalker did to vader.... what do you's think?

i also remember a comment being posted on the CIC a while ago about a programmer/developer of prophecy saying something like blair working for the bugs was planned for the sequel but they hadnt decided on whether it was because blair wanted to or was forced to?? then they cancelled prophecy 2....is that right, LOAF? or i am getting things mixed up?
 
That was someone *pretending* to work for Origin -- the word from ex-Prophecy team members is that Blair was dead "unless needed again" -- which is pretty much the state of *any* character killed in action.

Wing Commander generally does not bring people back from the dead. Be thankfull.
 
But the Sf-universe also lets more freespace for new ideas/definitions. If the story pretented to be real, it wouldn't be possible to let a dead person, come alive (bad sentence, hope you know what I mean). So because it's unreal, it's possible and not boring, even if you sometimes say, 'hey! that's too upspaced.'
But yes, I know, actors and their roles are really abolished, until they're needed again. (Waiting-status).(Again a very bad sentence.:().
 
Maybe she really knew. Or he knew. I wouldn't go in there alone...if I was in that situation.
She wanted to hold him off (knew he is too old for such adventures), but Wilford told her what he thought, and his rank is higher (even if he said in a nice way: 'Patricia...')...so she had to see him run in his fate...
But he wanted to fly, wanted to help Confed and maybe he saw it would be his end. Or didn't ( I made many situations, why not also this?).
 
Ahh, Blair the martyr. Can't really blame him, old warhorse at the end of his line, not much left to live for, figuring that if he was going to go, he might as well go out a hero. Now he is Obi-Wan. "The student has become the teacha!"
 
hehe, i can see a 100 year old blair in an oldfolks home, talking to his naighbour;
Blair: "I once destroyed Kilrah you know?"
other old guy; "Yeah, so did I"
Blair; "no really, i am the heart of the tiger"
other old guy; "you've go a heart of a tiger? pff, the things they can do today with science!"
Blair; "no, i'm the great hero of the confederation! savior of mankind!"
caretaker; "Come on Mr. Blair, it's bed time."
Blair; "Why you un great full piece off...i'm Maverick!
Caretaker; "Sure you are, come on, you've got a big day tomorrow...CyberBingo!"
Blair; "owyeah!"

;)
 
:D or better:
Blair:'No I am really the heart of the tiger, believe me.'
other:'That do they say all. What do you think how often I hear that a day...'
Blair: 'No it's true!'
other: 'Calm down I believe you. Sister! Did he take his pills???'
:D
What about that???

So many here have atrocious grammar - and that's even with English being their first language...

Again, I know we're not meant to talk about it, but I thought it was pretty obvious that Blair had no intention of getting back into the LC in time. But nevertheless, I can just imagine him somehow making it out in the shuttle, suffering concussion, and winding up on some planet (despite the fact he was in Kilrah, and LCs don't have jump drives), ending up in a nursing home where everyone believes that his rants about being the Heart of the Tiger are just from his declining mental condition. :)

Repeat that please. If I hear it once again, you got an enemy in the community. The first time I didn't see...but the second???
I know it is bad...and most others also know. But not everybody has got the money to go one year to the USA...and never compare me again with someone living in a ghetto!!!
I think you mostly understand what I want to say...and I am not here to learn English, I am here, because I like the people here...
Maybe you'd like to become teacher...but please critize other people. Here in my case you're at the wrong adress...because the first time I laughed about. The second I'd become little angry and the third I'd ignore...do you understand??? Though and Wedge is right..if you'd begin to critize you would have lots of work...and I like the community, because they also like me (if they do) with my bad English...
Whas tat badda englisch mista Techa???:)
 
I think the point here is simple - people who insist on correcting people's spelling all the time are annoying... but people who don't ignore them are just as annoying. Manjana, you are not required to find a personal insult in every stupid thing somebody here says. Like you said, you're here to make friends - not enemies.
 
I wish people would try to get at least their new thread's title right. On most days I have to correct a few.

Let's be thankful Blair is dead, so he cannot sink to such a level.
 
But may I ask one question then? Why do you tell only me? Tell him also, because he also isn't on best way of getting new friends...:) I'll take the words back...:

Hey, Mav. Please forget it. It was before my new friendly line...which I follow since today. But you really have to say...it isn't the nicest way to correct people if they also know...
And I am also the last one who'd say without knowing your real-life circumstances: 'You look like living in a garbage can...'. I know the comparision is wrong, but it is also a non-prooved remark, like you're saying I speak like living in a ghetto...so I don't say it, because it's really wrong, but I also don't live in a ghetto....so it's as wrong as my remark.

*g* Hm maybe I should open a new thread called I please all people whom I insulted the last days to forgive me. It would be much easiler thasn bidding everybody on his own...
Hey Quarto: You really have erzogen me...(what was that? I looked it up in a dictionary, and now I have to write DEnglisch in the worst form...;)) Crazy language... But now serious...not my parents made that in the last months...they weren't able to. You may congratulate yourself. Up from today I'll be a better human...

...Because it's the third or fourth time that I've seen you overreact to a joke and/or some stupid only half-serious comment? :) And that's just in the last few days...
