Forum Highjack

Unread post by Braden Campbell »

Since no one in the Admin will notice, let alone care, I am now highjacking this entire forum. It will henceforth be used for my own nefarious purposes, and held hostage until such time as RECON: Modern Combat sees publication.

Instructions are to follow.
Braden, GMPhD

If only you could find some way to keep the little icon on the main board from indicating new posts to anybody but your minions, you'd be set. As long as that keeps lighting up, people will drop by, if for no other reason then to set it back to "no new posts" mode.

Since the thread has not been locked out, I take it you are willing to listen to my demands, and negotiate for the release of your Forum.

I want:

$2,000,000 in smalls bills, non-sequential, unmarked. Must be Euros.

A fueled plane, skeleton crew, ready to take off from Pearson International. The plane will fly me, no questions asked, to a non-extradition country of my choosing.

The release of RECON: Modern Combat immediately following Rifts: UE. Failing that, I will accept the finished portions posted on the Cutting Room Floor, since it is likely they will never see publication.

You have two months.

It was, unfortunately, Recon Modern Combat moved from a "promised title" to the cancelled pile, according to recent reports.

Sounds like a perfect candidate for Palladium to test out selling books on PDF...I bet if they offered it for download at somewhere in the neighborhood of 5.95 to 7.95 they would sell more copies than if they put the actual book on the market. IMO, anyways.

Your time is up.

In response, we will now execute 1 registered Palladium Poster, chosen randomly from the list. The chosen poster will be notified by PM that they have been taken out by the RECON Liberation Front.

We will continue to "notify" one poster each day until 1) RECON is shipped or 2) I get my signed piece of paper in the mail.

Please, be my guest. I can even recommend a list of posters instead of lame randomization.
