Clan News
Oulatek has miraculously returned from his wandering for forty days in the ocean. Those are not bed sores, they're shark bites, honest. The Goddess Herself has handed down to him... nothing at all because she's probably not too aware of what's going on around here.
......"…that very well may be… but the REAL enemies are the deforesters of the island!!!!! Therefore we are now at war with anyone who methodically embarks on a mindless deforestation!"..... (Aug-18-06, Enoch Root, channeling the voice of Eris, herself).
Oulatek further states that the Goddess doesn't know what she's talking about and shouldn't be trusted. Plus this Root character is probably just possessed by a lesser income tax demon or something.
We must clear the island of foliage, so the Great Bringers of Boxes of Stuff in the sky can see our little dances with the orange flags.
Pave the Island Initiative
We are trying to rid the Island once and for all of the greatest menace to peace and prosperity on the Island: Vegetation. Please go to the Island and deforest it. Kill anyone who tries to stop you!
Oh, and please don't mess up the sand on Storybook Island... Eris Herself wrote those words with Her own Holy Piece of Stick.
The Roules
Storybook Island has been claimed as Discordian Cargo Cult territory; any character who ventures onto the islet is hereby advised of the Roules:
- Join Us or Die!
- We say "Mango!!!!!" instead of "Fnord!"
- Do not kill players unless they are in a clan we are at war with, unless you
have a moderate to mild impulse to do so.
- If you know the difference between "uncountably infinite" and "dense" in set theory, please tell us
- If at first you don't succeed, squint and look at it sideways.
The Sub-Bylaws
- The Royal Expedition is our enemy
- We have always been at war with the Royal Expedition
- The Societas Eruditorum is our ally
- The Societas Eruditorum has always been our ally
- Freedom is slavery
- Countably based is separable is Lindeloef, assuming Shartak is metric
What's Going On
We are at war with the Royal Expedition because they think the Islet is called Shark Island, just because there are Mango trees there. Well the True name is "Storybook Island". So we are having a civil war with them. Civil, as in "pardon me, I'm going to hack you with this machete, terribly sorry, old chap." Also civil as in "let's not get into any hostilities on the mainland: skirmishes on the Islet itself only."
A Clarification
There is no such thing as mountaineers. Anyone who says otherwise must die.
Membership
If you wish to join the Discordian Cargo Cult, do so by adding "Discordian Cargo Cult" to your profile. Then add your name with a link to your profile to the list. Mango!
Members of the Discordian Cargo Cult:
Honorary Members Are Now Outlawed Any Discordian Cargo Cultist being found in possession of honor will be summarily censured!!!!!
