Epiphany!: New use for spam in gaming

[Doc_Souark]

Only name that jumps out at me is "Geoff Spakes" surely a made up name but one I'll use in the upcoming release of Sidewinder:Recoiled.

Hmmm... just checked spam mail account.

Yeah, well, blonds aren't my thing, so I'm not even interested in a one night stand.

Strangely, I don't remember anyone trashy enough to wear that skirt with those shoes. Really, I do have standards.

Lola, did I ever tell you I think you're burnin'-hunka-love hot?

(I'd call you the "shizz-nit" if I had any clue what that meant.)

After careful consideration while dozing in Algebra, it seems clear that BiggerPenisin30Days is obviously the son of a great lord who was murdered in his sleep, and now must avenge his death... with daddy's vorpal sword.

"We represent the lollipop league! The lollipop league...."

And it's Hunka-burnin'-love, dear.

[edit: I always hated that movie, got the song garbled}

I used to get all of my game names by watching talk shows. All of my Vampire: the Masquerade NPC's had living counterparts (and their quirks and mannerisms, phobias, fetishes, and relationship problems). Fortunately, my days of watching talk shows are over.

And it's Hunka-burnin'-love, dear.

Gulp.

(She...she...spoke to me!)

[Fumbles nervously and blushes a lot]

(I think she likes me..!)

Uh. Err, sorry. Not a big Elvis fan. As a great poet and scholar once said, "Elvis was a hero to most--but he didn't mean sh*t to me."

I am a pretty big Lola fan, however....!

So this morning I sat down to perform my morning ritual of deleting the 20-30 spam emails while carefully making sure not to delete any of the ones that indicted replies to my subscribed ENWorld threads.

You need to get a mail program with "adaptive" or "boolean" filters. I'm using Mozilla Thunderbird, and although it's only at version 0.3, it has robust spam prevention, wonderful adaptive filters, and a nice spellcheck.

Anyway, the point of the adaptive filters is that you can train the program to figure out what's spam and what isn't. When I first turned mine on, it thought everything coming from the reply notices was junk. But, after I marked them all as "not junk", it learned that emails with the "thread has been replied to" format from ENWorld weren't junk. It hasn't junked a single one of them yet.

Hmm... let's see:

Fannie Sutton -- Prescriptions written and filled
Well hi there Fannie, you can fill my prescription any time!

Pasquale Wilkerson -- ePHARMACY Wholesale
Perhaps a stuck-up noblewoman?

Heriberto Ryan -- Generíc Viagra
Ryan is rather "blah", but Heriberto definitely has swashbluckin' potential!

Dona Calderon -- Health Insurance for Your Life Free
"Oh Zorro, you have saved my life! How can I ever repay you?"

 

[Desdichado]

Pasquale Wilkerson -- ePHARMACY Wholesale
Perhaps a stuck-up noblewoman?

Except that it's not a woman's name!

 

[Conaill]

Except that it's not a woman's name!

And she'll nail you with a withering glare if you dare mention that in polite company!
