*uses alicorn magic to turn around the moon*

There, now the side with the laser is pointing AWAY from the planet.

You've failed to take into account the amount of recoil a giant moon laser has. If I were to fire it at a 90 degree angle, the moon's spin speed would increase exponentially, and then I could just fire in the opposite direction to stop it.

...A laser? With recoil?

Just HOW big is that thing, again?

And how many other celestial bodies are you blasting apart as collateral damage?

(Unfortunately, places without an oxygen-bearing atmosphere cannot burn.)

I should clarify: by moon laser, I mean that the laser is literally the moon. Power cells are in the core, cannon's in a crater, etc. As for celestial bodies, let's just say the Fourth of July is coming early this year.

Ayye Lmao! Pony land is a better region then Equestria

Was... was that a recruitment attempt? I mean, I don't want to be mean, but that was like watching a train speeding along some tracks only for one of the bolts near the sea, rusted by lack of maintenance, finally lose its battle with time and snap, therefore causing the track to tilt and the train to slowly disengage with the ground. It flies up for a brief instant, only for gravity to reassert its hold and send it down unto the earth from which it came. Slowly but surely, the rest of the train follows, like a grotesque line of dominos. The passengers try in vain to hold in to their chairs, but they too must finally succumb to gravity's cruel ministrations...

Look, what I'm saying is that it was a train wreck.

I, the most illustrious yet newest nation in pony Europe must state the following, do NOT turn the moon, it is much too much of a risky option! The waves will surely go mad!

I think the moon being moved by all that recoil from Quintolania's laser is going to do more to disrupt the tides than just spinning it in place.

Also, Quintolania's recently-announced melting-the-oceans initiative will probably do more damage to our seas, in the long run.

(Though err... shouldn't he be trying to vaporize the oceans? They're already molten. Unless he meant to melt the seafloor, in which case go right ahead.)

Silly Trotterdam, dolphins don't live on the sea FLOOR. If I try to melt that, the lobsters might get upset. Those guys are basically immortal, and I don't like picking a fight with gods if I can help it. Vaporisation DOES seem to be a more reachable goal, though. So, of course, I'm not going to do that. I will amend my statement, however, to melting the DOLPHINS rather than the water.

...you do realize I've built a laser cannon out of the MOON, correct? And you're worrying about tides? Adorable.

Day 41:
Damn Quint and his dolphin melting initiative. Fired his laser all over Equestria and hit every single dolphin... And caused a bit too much collateral damage... And the recoil of the moon screwed with the tides a bit too much. The lasers I could have dealt with. The lasers and fires I could have dealt with. Lasers, fires and disastrous changes in tides? Ugh... Now there is nothing but the burnt shell of a palace, and what little uncharred food I have is beginning to dwindle, not to mention the almost nonexistent amounts of clean water. Not even a working radio. I need to find Project Hakurei. I know one of those robots I had there had a module that could freeze time. Maybe I could mod that thing to bring me back to the time before this junk happened and stop his mad plot?

THAT'S NO MOON... IT'S A BATTLE STATION!

If that's a battlestation, then what did you do with the moon? You can't just lose something that big... can you?

Is it me or does the moon look a bit smaller than usual?

Agent: It does ma'am. You want me to contact moon base for any problem.

Do it.

*Minutes later*

Agent: They reported back...

And?

Agent: They said the planet got jacked.

Come again, because I don't think I heard you right.

Agent: Our planet got jacked by aliens and it's gonna be hurled into the sun like firewood.

Not one of the most craziest things I heard in all of Equestria, but we still should do something about this life threatening issue.

Trotterdam wrote:If that's a battlestation, then what did you do with the moon? You can't just lose something that big... can you?

Don't bother checking our museums. They're closed for, ah, renovations. For the new "moon-sized" expansion! Which is a coincidence! Yep! Mhmmm!

Oh yes, they're, ah, "aliens". Not Quintolanian revolutionaries hellbent on having everyone embrace The Way Of the Flame. That'd be preposterous.

This new PR department is awful, gentlemen. Have them all executed, please.

Eh, so long as it's not my life being threatened, I don't care.

So apparently my nation needs a new Calvinball mascot. Strangely, I find this a harder decision to make than most serious political issues that my nation keeps facing.

The issue looks too amusing to dismiss, but I don't actually have a pressing need to reduce crime.

Calvinball issue? Awesome. Is Spaceman Spiff an option?

I don't think so. Batman is, though.

Trotterdam wrote:I don't think so. Batman is, though.

But it's Nolan's Batman, not Adam West. I was disappointed.

So, random question. Has anyone here ever played Vampire: The Masquerade: Bloodlines?

Quintolania wrote:So, random question. Has anyone here ever played Vampire: The Masquerade: Bloodlines?

Sadly no, but would you recommend it?

Quintolania wrote:So, random question. Has anyone here ever played Vampire: The Masquerade: Bloodlines?

Wazzat?

Conexus wrote:Sadly no, but would you recommend it?

I would, yes. At least if you use the unofficial patch. The unpatched version is... unpleasant.

The Alicorns wrote:Wazzat?

It's the greatest single player RPG of all time. Basically Deus Ex with vampires and vampire powers and zombies and gargoyles and ghostbusting and stuff.

Quintolania wrote:So, random question. Has anyone here ever played Vampire: The Masquerade: Bloodlines?

A couple of times.

A year.

Ever since I bought it about 10 years ago.

Gangrel are the best clan, by the way.
