Title: Two quick questions...
Post by: O on July 12, 2005, 08:08:31 PM
I realise people are reluctant to answer my posts but I will persevere with a sweet smile...Tuluki style.

1. What is the common signal to show that you're experiencing lag without going OOC? I know it's written somewhere, but I can't for the life of me find it.

2. What are some substitutes animals to chickens...as in calling someone a 'chicken' meaning coward?

Thanks...

1. Just acting dizzy or saying someone is nagging (not bothering unless you want to suggest a mindbender) you over the Way or just staring off all work.  People are quick to pick up these signs.

2. A jozhal is an extremely cowardly and mostly harmless lizard.  It's not a chicken, but it's about as brave as a hare.

A vestric is a bird that is easily scared.

Quote from: "http://www.armageddon.org/general/beasts.html#vestric"Vestric : Rodents, despite their feathered bodies, the vestric are only capable of extremely limited flight, instead usually gliding from the bushes and trees which they climb in the Grey Forest whilst searching for fruits or seeds. Timid by nature, they are sought after both for their feathers and succulent meat.

say (with a deep sigh) Sorry, I just can't seen to get with it today, bear with me if I'm a little slow.
Or just make up your own.

Vestrics are rodents.  They're feathered, but they're rodents.

In south, nearly everyone uses 'jozhal'. It flees, it hides, it does everything to avoid a confrontation. It's weak and skinny. A perfect match.
