Anybody with half a brain can tell that's the Space Baby, not any sort of "Star Child."

Update from the bunker:

Over at the codex, based on a post from some idiot named "bryce777" (I think I allowed this guy to beta test at the last minute, if you are "bryce777" please contact me via PM immediately) the Codexites are arguing over how the "Star Child" in Grimoire fighting against the half hybrid races to prepare for the alien invasion is in some way related to my neo-nazi army of gay Aryan supermen and it's ideology.

The problem is there is no "star child" in Grimoire, nor any alien races or a base to fortify against the invasion, nor any of the story elements mentioned by Bryce777, in fact it doesn't sound like he was a beta tester at all. The actual story in Grimoire has nothing at all to do with any of this.

Laughing

They read my comment over here on the News page and insisted I didn't know what my own game was about, then followed it up with forty posts analyzing the "Star Child" in context and how this was secretly Adolph Hitler and the hybrid gorilla races in this story were actually symbolic of my own repressed homosexuality and nazism.

Shocked

I swear to God, you could not make up a place as bizarre as the Codex. The people there are like a bunch of superpowered atomic losers, with secret loser powers not known to ordinary mortals. Their forum sounds like an assortment of pythonesque characters having a serious argument over how to pull the pin on the holy hand grenade. Laughing

You don't know whether to laugh or cry regarding the Codex idiots. It's a sad place where failed undersized male mammals apparently crawl off to die.

The "Star Child." The ancient alien races returning to fortify the base for the attack by the half human hybrids. "He'll probably change the story now that he knows the cat is out of the bag!" shrieked on poster. Surprised

The writing for Grimoire is not the equal of Orson Scott Card. (A guy I met briefly a couple years back when he was writing for Ahoy! magazine.) It is, however, better than 99% of all the previous roleplaying games ever published on the PC. That's the truth.

And yet people who are familiar with his writing don't care for it?

Well shit, patting yourself on the back for doing one of the best writing for RPG ever is a sure sign you've nuts.

I mean, "Megaton" would kick "Oblivion"s ass as far as gameplay goes, but you don't see me bragging about it!

Look here. He's credited for "Sword Fighting Insults" :D
I always let the credits roll to their end when I finish an adventure game; I was really surprised when I saw that OSC was involved in Monkey Island.

Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you the new slogan for the Codex.

Cleve's still going..

  • The losers at the Codex finally gave up and conceded that even if their stories of my neonazi gay army of atomic supermen, hybrid apes vs. the Star Baby and tales of my decade long battle with penury were false ... they should be true.

    Yes, lots of things SHOULD be true, Proverbius. Unfortunately, if you were sitting through a psych ward screening process and used that phrase one too many times when free associating, you'd likely be involuntarily committed and scheduled for insulin shock therapy.

    "Now, Proverbius, you've spoken of the Star Baby deep within the earth who seeks to oppose the hybrid ape races. You've claimed that Cleve is funding said apes in order to further his agenda for world conquest through his various Natzee front organizations including the Thule Society. I want to ask you, do you honestly believe this is the truth?"

    "Maybe not exactly, doc ... but it SHOULD be! You can see that, can't you?"

    Fez is the guy with the gay vulcan avatar portrait on the Codex. He was telling me a while back if I want to survive World War III, I should join the military or else become a politician. Then he started shrieking about how I said British people were socialist slaves. After that he just kind of went completely to pieces and kept insisting that all the important people were either soldier-mens or else in politics. This guy folded under questioning, as well, in my humble estimation. The two of them together are about as mentally stable as Richard Simmons during a full moon. No way either of these guys has yet found an apartment of their own. I guarantee you if you trace these guys back to their physical server, you're going to find it in their parents garage back in Kentucky with them permanently living in the corner with a foldout bunk surrounded by Star Trek memorabilia.

    So I guess that whole thing is over. They have not been back in a while to post more pictures of fat porn or aborted fetuses on the forum. I think their limited attention span has shifted onto something else. It's a shame because the hit count on my site absolutely went through the roof.

You'd think the world's smartest man could operate a tracert and find out our server isn't in Kentucky.

Just for kicks... Let's let google settle this

He's still going on about it? He must not have much happening if that's all he has to put up on his "game development site" for weeks on end.

You managed to contribute for the majority of updates this century. Maybe the game will be finished if you continue to motivate him like this.

It must really suck for him that people could see through the 5 inches of shallow water into his soul and figure his racist ass out.

Im sure his mother/girlfriend is telling him that this makes him a more important person.

I don't rate a mention? But... but... but I posted all the great Rex quotes that he used! I mean, I effectively got Rex fired from the Codex! Where's the love Cleve? Don't you love me anymore? I thought we had something going on but no... All you care about is your precious Star Baby. WELL FINE. If children from other relationships are all you're interested in then I'm just going off to find myself a real man.

How can you evil Codexers do this to Cleve? Now you march right back there, apologise, and start posting nasty smelly pictures on his forums, so his site can get more hits.

I enjoy the irony of him calling RPG Codex a failure when his only method of drumming up hits for his site seems to be posting ignorant rants about this site and the staff on his front page in hopes we'll say something on our front page about him with a link to his site.

No, you didn't.
Yes I did. Didn't you listen to Cleve? Rex got the boot because he's a hypocritical congoid. That was all only possible with thanks to the Exitiumpedia which I lovingly quoted with delicate care and precision. You're not going to buy into that theory that he got booted because he's just a complete tool are you? Pfft..

Realistically, my carefully crafted plan of posting classic Rex quotes achieved it's objective and all credit should go to me and only me. At the least I should get the most though.

Please send the credit to me via registered post and air mail. If you're living in a foreign country such as Uzbekistan, please ensure your package is marked "DOES NOT CONTAIN EXPLOSIVES".
