actually id use a woman to lean on as i try to keep from falling over laughing as i have this mental image of a horde of gnomes, brandishing their turnips, coming after me with slogand like

"by my uncle scratchys beard!!!"

hahahahahhahahahhaha!!!!

"Bun bun...I've heard so many rumors about this legenday Bun bun. It seems Bun bun's popularity booms as far as the name goes. "

?????

:confused:

actually bun bun was mostly a thought experiment...without changing stats, like hit points and such, i consider such trivial uses of sk unimaginative... to see how much of an uber character i couldm make using sk...

bun bun version 3 is still available for download, and even comes with finmel, (melissans minhp item, remove from neckslot using sk) with the dreaded frag grenade and g deathblows in special abilities...aside from a tendency to kill of your party, g deathblwo and frag grenade is my best cheese ever....

activate g deathblow, and tehn immediatly fire a frag grenade into a bunch of mindflayres, and watch them all fall down...its just too funny...so i created a special char to take advantage of that, a combo sorc and kensai....

just do a search for bun bun ver 3, and the forum should still have it...

version 4 is my new idea....

well, it turns out the full eng patch for tob disables using a cntrl character from setting and locking wild surge numbers, so what i was going to make was a theif kensai multi, then sk to wildmage cleric, thus bypassing the one kit per dual limit, then before installing the tob patch, set the surge number to one i like, like cast at double strength, no save, (or a funny bun bun, always drop cow on wild surge...moooo......hehehehheh!!!)

but seriously, bun bun can make the game no challenge what soever...since a exploit i designed the template for allows you with use any item, to stack holy avenger, robe of vecna, ring of gaxx, so you can have by chapter 2 over 80% magic resist...as good as most monks, better than most monks...

so why play bun bun???

i did it to enjoy the mods...like tashia and sola...

i mean with the cheeses i have developed and shared on this board, playing thru with my fav classs, sorc is hardly any fun anyway...so i deveoped a char i was actually interested in making, and played it for mod enjoyment...

"PS - No, I've never seen an oriental turnip raw. Nightstick? Bad, User! "

and its actually

"bad bunny!!! bad bun bun!!!!''

since i figured out my jungian archetype is bun bun...i got problems...

User, are you telling me that you'd pick Aeries comments on Jaheiras hair over Anomens constant prodding you along the game? :p

I would (and do) miss Nalia... "For the needy!" :D

I can't remember who it was, but somebody once told me that he liked Jans belch. He said that "sometimes, they belched simutaneously". :eek:

Chakkita? I think you guys are thinking of the bananas...Last time I checked, it was Chatika Fastpaws. That is, unless you have an extreme attachment to the lady with the fruit on her head...

Jaheira, and her snooty "Ah, yes. The little big book of Alaundo." I didn't even know they had Little Big Books back then. :confused:

But, my favorite two NPC conversations will always be between Jan and Maz. If you don't know why, I would suggest the "Funniest NPC" thread in the ToB section, on page 4 or 5, if I recall coreectly.

Well, I have to agree, Jan does liven up a party. Esp. with Minsc. I never would have thought Minsc could see through the ruse though, but then Minsc and Boo are Minsc and Boo.

And sorry AC, it's just that Anomen, well, I TRIED to live with him in the party once, but he was so arrogant when I first met him. And I am not a forgiving player. :cool:

aqua, just about any dialog is better than anomen...i ended up polymorphing him the last timejan is a , and he was so much better as a squirrel...

eek, eek...

but seriously, jan is a riot, ive never denied that, but as we both feel, he just grates after a while....

i dont know why, but he just gets too annoying, possibly for both of us he reminds us of a relative..who is funny in small doses, but after listening to his alchol soaked stories for half a frigging day, you would welcome a root canal just to get away....

ahh yes, the banana lady...

"life is better with chikkita..."

gotta have a load of self confidence if your means of livelyhood is wearing fruit hats and doing the hula...

sorta like those poor buggers you see who makes a living wearing micky mouse and donald duck costumes, the blow to your self respect must be considerable...

Well, BS, I tolerated Aerie and Nalia all the way up to ToB... You can at *least* put some effort into hacking it with Anomen...Jan makes it slightly easier with his talkes of Ano the Lobotomized (Sp? My head is blank today) Orc...

Something that bugs me in the game: 3 out of the 4 Romance choices are Priests. Aerie, Anomen and Viconia are all in the clergy... Anyone ever heard of the term "celebret (sp again? My head is still blank...)"? :rolleyes: : :D

But, when Bodhi went and gave Anomen that damn hickey on the neck in the graveyard district, and went and re-picked up Viconia before going to get him back. In that time, I encountered this dialog:

Viconia: Hear'dalis, I blame you for this damnably hummable song playing again in my head over and over. You are realy quite a marvelous tunesmith, not to mention a clever mimic and talented mime.

Viconia: Have you any new and lewd barlesque tunes that you may regale me with, musician?

Haer'dalis: Viconia, do you truly think though that you are bewitching in appearence and have the throaty voice of the most expensive coutesian in the King Wingding's House of Earthly Delights...

Haer'dalis:...and a body built for untold pleasures that I would fall for such an old ploy? Blow a little sunshine and I will fall over myself to gain your favor? Best think again, dark one.

Viconia: Men better than you have walked across lava to kiss a dog who has licked my hand, actor.

Viconia: You are a dreamer, bard. I am sure you can imagine lots of wonderful scenes, but they cannot exceed truth in intensity, depravaty or tenture, I assure you.

Haer'dalis: Ah...er...pardon me for a moment whilst my head implodes.

So, I admit, you gotta respect a woman who can throw off Haer'dalis like that. Not even Jaheira can pull that kind of a task. :D ;) I confess that I don't have anything against Viccie, it's just that I don't play evil groups...not my style, you see.

But, COME ON! Who can resist the sex talk Imoen and Anomen have in ToB?!It's WORTH bringing him along, in my opinion! :D

I noticed the thing about the romances being preists. I think it is some conspiracy

I think it's just to get your preist out of the way when Bohdi puts the bite on your romances. Think of it, you lose your Neg plane protection and restoration caster. It's all a plot, and sinister conspiracy. *glances areound nrevously*

Oh, and I did try to take Anomen, but just couldn't last more than the time it takes to do his quest and get the xp. As far as the dialoge between him and Imoen, if it is what it sounds like, I'd have to kill him then. She's my sister after all. :D

Because of his dialogues, Anomen seems more like a paladin to me. Perhaps they should've made him a fighter and if he passed his test he'd go paladin....if he failed he'd go berserker, and his entire disposition would change. (Korgan-Style baby ;) )

Actually I don't mind Ano. He's the best good-aligned cleric. Hey, is it just me or are all the good-aligned NPC's insecure in a way?

I'm sorry, but you must have missed some of the dialogues. At one point, Jaheira tells Haer'Dalis, "I find your wit a treat, especially when it is unleashed upon the hapless that did not see it laying in wait." But in another dialogue, she proves that she herself is not hapless. :)

HAER'DALIS: Ah, my hound, this city be the great world of commerce! Perhaps we can sell Jaheira?

JAHEIRA: Cut your wit, bard. The day has been long already, without you adding hours to it.

HAER'DALIS: Cut my wit? Why, certainly, if I could only use your nose's razor edge to perform the task.

JAHEIRA: Aye, it seems I've sharpened it upon the grindstone of your heart.

HAER'DALIS: Well, my frumpy ptarmigan, I must protest-

JAHEIRA: "Methinks thou dost protest too much." Aye, I can quote the poets too. If you must protest, I respond only to hunger strikes and, even then, too late.

HAER'DALIS: Oh [MAIN CHARACTER], raven of sympathy! Yon woman is stifling my creativity and stealing thunder from my wit! I swear I cannot work amidst the lashings of her tongue!


"Respond only to hunger strikes, and even then, too late"? That has to be one of the funniest things any of the characters ever said! :)

akk, right, i am too frigging curious for my own good...this is how i blew all the fuses for my old house in NC when i was 12...

giggle...

von, master of near infinity, pls post it...

i do have to admit, i took in haer dalis to try to play out the aerie triangle, and it was disappointing, i think its rigged to rep...and his blaise matter of fact suggestion to sell jahiera is a riot...

but i still hate bards...



:D ;)

well, yeah, all the romances are priests...jahiera included...she is a druid, after all...wierd....

"Near Infinity"? How interesting. When I was taking a college calculus class, I tried to prove that there are different orders of infinity, meaning that infinity is not always equal to infinity. The professor wouldn't even consider it. :)

I must admit that I was never sure what people were talking about when they referred to the "hilarious sex dialogue" between Anomen and Imoen, but I found it with Infinity Explorer. Anomen's alignment affects the dialogue, so I'll present both versions.


Imoen: So. You're part of that Order of the Radiant Heart, right, Anomen? The paladins and clerics that run around Amn getting outraged at everything?
Anomen: I find your description bordering on insult, girl... but, yes, I am a member of the Order. Why?
Imoen: Well, a full hundred of them marched all solemn-like up to Candlekeep about ten years ago, all to donate a single book to the monks. Did you know about that?
Anomen: No, but it sounds like something the Order might do, depending on the book.
Imoen: It was a big book, as I recall. I stole into the archive to look at it... did you know it had all sorts of pictures of naked men and women? Total filth! I'm surprised the Order even had something like that.
Anomen: No doubt it was a book of great evil. Perhaps the Order gave it over to the care of your monks so it would not be used by those of impure intentions.
Imoen: Well, I don't know about that. Winthrop caught me peeking and gave me hell like you wouldn't believe... but I noticed he kept the book in his room after that point.
Anomen: Vile girl! I'll not listen to any more of this! Go bother [MAIN CHARACTER]!



Imoen: So. You're part of that Order of the Radiant Heart, right, Anomen? The paladins and clerics that run around Amn getting outraged at everything?
Anomen: Hah! An apt description of those blowhards, if ever I have heard one. No, dear girl... I am no member of the Order, although I was once a novice. Why do you ask?
Imoen: Well, a full hundred of them marched all solemn-like up to Candlekeep about ten years ago, all to donate a single book to the monks. Did you know about that?
Anomen: No, but it sounds like something the Order might do, depending on the book.
Imoen: It was a big book, as I recall. I stole into the archive to look at it... did you know it had all sorts of pictures of naked men and women? Total filth! I'm surprised the Order even had something like that.
Anomen: You don't say? Well perhaps the Prelate was finished with it and gave it to the head of your monks as something of a present? Those paladins are quite the repressed lot of stuffed shirts, you know.
Imoen: Oh, they're not so bad, I guess. Better them than some of the evil I've seen... they can just be kinda pompous, as I remember. You're not as bad as I figured you might be, though, Anomen.
Anomen: Well, I'm glad you think so. I escaped from their clutches just in time, I suppose, eh?
Korgan: Escaped? Har har! Like a bleedin', puny fish escapes when it is thrown back into the stinkin' sea! Har har, yer a card, Anomen!
Anomen: Well, of *course* there is always someone about who feels the need to comment on my life. Helm preserve me. (sigh)

well, your prof did not know about kantorian sets...

if a set of infinite objects, like all prime numbers comprise members of a set, a set of all infinite sets, there are ways of proving the second set is bigger, and i dont even know the way tehy define bigger, than the first set...


anyway, clac is not about infinity at all, its just a referant, a shorthand for achieveing a desired effect....

for example, sir issac newton did not publish his books on calc using limits, he did it in algebra based proofs...

anyway, thanks....

so who has got their copy of the pop up Kama Sutra???!!!

I do!!!

anomen needs a major drink, both versions...

I meant that my prof wouldn't consider MY proof. :) It stemmed from a, uh, discussion about my use of the expression, "approximately infinity". It was all in good fun.

OK...That wasn't the talk I was referring to, but ....Wait a minute...I'm thinking of Imoen and Keldorn. Sorry! :rolleyes: :)

You'd figure that if Anomen's father is an alchoholic, he wouldn't drink, right? Maybe *that's* the problem!

Lawful Good Anomen... I run away from that like a cat from water. Too... I dunno. He's too prissy, I suppose. Lawful Good is not my style, either. I am a Great Druid, after all. ;) :D

VonDondu, we all know you as the "Infinty Person" now... All those posts over ToB section are giving you a sturdy rep. (In other words, you're the only person I know on the boards who isn't to lazy to open up Infinity and look 'em all up. Not even I can do that.) ;)

Haer'dalis is good to have, if he would just be an archer like I really wished him to be. With Entropy and Chaos blades, the guy thinks he's a front-line fighter with only 40-60 HP. Luckily for me, there's SK.

No insult to Jaheira, it's just that she has a terrible time pulling her weight in my team. Levels up to slowly, and weapon profi. come low. But, she's my team leader, with Anomen following second. (In order to keep my Nuetral alignment team up, of course). I take Haer'dalis along only to counter her lip. ;)

...........

But now, my game seems to think it's going to be a pain in my ass today. Nothing seems to work...I better go get that fixed.

No prob, Von. I try to be nice to the people I like.... Isn't that right, User? :p

I still say Anomen would be a lot more flexible if somebody would just get the guy a drink...

I really don't think that's the dialoq (Has anybody else noticed that I spell "dialog" 500 different ways?) I was talking about before though...Irks at me that I can't remember...I just remember that it was beyond funny...*Ghar!*

But, jcomton gave me the solution to the problem that started this topic (Does ANYone remember even?!)...And he was right. Anomen left my party. So I had to re-boot, fix all that junk...I just wanted to see what the messenger would say. I didn't want Ano-I-wish-I-was-a-real-man to leave.

Oh no. Now I'm picking on him too...There goes his last chance in defence...

There, Ode, User and BS! Are ya all HAPPY?! ...sigh.
