Man, my sanity requirements involve either Computers,books or sex.
So assuming I can't have the first 2, I'd need someone willing to supply a lot of the last.

Wow... That sounds like some wierd "fantasies", and a whole lot of hate inside you.
I don't want that to happen to humanity. I just mean it would make for a more interesting world. I like reading these sort of fantasy novels... The Stand, for example.

I LOVE the Stand, it is easily my favorite King book.
Dammit MyTie stop showing good taste in everything today, you're ruining my prejudiced opinion of you.

I think Patty, DoctorLore, Interest, fenomas and OZ are unencumbered by relationships.
That's just a thinly-veiled way of saying "forever alone", isn't it? :P
Um. Chels is fabulous and we have so much in common! But um. Yeah, I'll go with Elura because I can't think of a better choice. Because of twinsie reasons. I'm sure we'd make the most perfect island ever and we'd help eachother build our shrines dedicated to our gods/goddesses (aka Angie, Emma etc). Well actually both of us would be too lazy to do anything.

The people on your dramatic and foodless island may not come over to my quiet and abundant island when the hardworking asn and I have set up solar powered heating/ac units, solar powered ovens, automated fishing traps, when you guys have run out of makeup. You two will have to swim over to Funden's island, or something. We have strict immigration policies due to Interest's disinterest (see what I did there) in political debate, and the remaining conservative values on our island. We might lend you food, but you'd have to pay in land space off of your island. Eventually we'd take it over and then I could swim away from Interest and get my own island. You two would have to tough it out on a makeshift barge or something. Sorry.(##RESPBREAK##)136##DELIM##hatman555##DELIM##Ok Mytie here it is. You tread the grey zone. You are smart enough to know when to stop, and smart enough to know what to say to make it so that you don't break the rules, but at the same time get a lot of people worked up about your posts.
This warning is for trolling. While you see your post as a jest, some of the language presents of tone of disrespect and prejudice against other posters. It is very hard for some people to post on these forums, and while the regular users here have very tough skins and can turn almost anything around for
the better
, other posters are not that way. New posters do not know you. New posters will not take the time to get to know you if all they hear from you are posts written in an elitist and disrespectful tone. All in all, your words have the ability to upset people, and there needs to be a consiquence for that.
I think we can have a lot of fun in this thread. I think we will have a lot of fun in the other thread as well. I think you can bring a good-natured humor to the table. I ask you to watch what you write, and think about how others will react to it. In the end, it's not how you read your own remarks, it's how the other members read them, and it's how I read them.

Well,
that
was completely necessary, I'm sure.

I don't think they could get past the membership committee.

It's a tough world out there, Patty. But, I'm not all mean. I'll even help you and Elura build the barge, and put lots of food and water and shelter on it. We'd have a big luao, roast a wild boar, and sing to you guys the night before we pushed you off and watched you drift into the sunset. Oh, I like this fantasy... a lot.

Your passive-aggression is really starting to grate. If you dislike me or Elura, that doesn't mean it's necessary to make that clear everywhere I post. I hope you're mature enough to accept that.

Patty, actually, I don't really keep track of what I think of you, nor most anyone in this forum. Half of that is poor memory, and the other half is apathy. My post is more directed at the impracticality of people's island plans. My post is mainly for self amusment, ya know, jest. If you feel that all my replies to you are negative, then try to stop taking anything I say seriously. My best friend once told me that he never took anything I said seriously, ever, and that's how he got along with me so well. I'm a cynical @#$%^&*. I know it.
My only issue with being stuck on a deserted island would be boredom. If I was there with someone who I both find interesting and attractive, it wont be an issue.
A deserted island is boring? What about exploration, fishing, farming, construction, art, entertainment, storytelling, music, mining, diving, swimming, etc etc etc. If an entire deserted island is boring to you, then I guarantee the same penis is going to get boring after a while too.And I think Patty and I would be perfectly fine on an island. If we for some reason would be starving I can assure you we'd both rather die together than go anywhere near your island or you.This saves me from having to help you build a barge. Would you rather be cremated or buried before I take over?

I'm not really sure that MyTie's scenario would play out that way, anyway. After all, Interest hangs out with Patty and Elura in vent, and is kind of friends with them. However, I don't think he hangs out with MyTie. If I had to pick between sending two friends to certain death, and banishing someone who called me a "hardworking asn," I think the choice would be pretty clear.
It seems that even in your optimum scenario, MyTie, your attitude towards other people would leave you ostracized.
@MyTie- Also, the scenario was outlined such that practical concerns wouldn't be a problem to consider, and it was based on whose company you enjoy. If you dislike the answers other people made about whose company they'd enjoy, because it doesn't seem to answer "practical concerns," you're playing the wrong game.

^ QFT. I'm sure Interest's of a mind of Elura and I.
Also, Elhonna, would there be cats on the island? :D

I feel like people are planning their retirements- lol.
Patty, I feel like whether or not there are cats is irrelevant to the scenario, but if you would like to imagine that there are feel free. The set rules is that there aren't any other people, and survival isn't really a concern- just isolation.

I could definitely see Interest teaming up with Patty and Elura, and all three of them tying up MyTie, stuffing a dirty sock in his mouth, and sending him out to sea on his barge.

Wow, I really don't know. This is easily the toughest question so far

I'll edit an answer in later, I'll have to consider. Thror's pic won the thread, though.

Entertainment, storytelling, music... with who? You picked Interest so you could ignore him. Are you gonna be talking to yourself? I'd much rather just pick someone I actually enjoy talking to.
Yeah. Create vivid and entertaining stories, and make beautiful music. I can do that on my own. Why does everything have to about social interaction? Can't beautiful things be done for their beauty, even if they only have one admirer?I'm not really sure that MyTie's scenario would play out that way, anyway.

Could be.... but I have intricate knowledge of mechanics and survival. I've already run through the list of things I could create on the island. If it were big enough, and I could come up with magnets, and somehow some copper, I might be able to create electricity, therefore light. I don't know about AC. No freon, nor compression, but maybe just pipe in ocean water through the walls of the building. I'm still working that all out. But I'm willing to bet my ingenuity vs "niceness" to any sane person.
If all else fails, I understand weaponry and warfare better than anyone else. I'll just kill them, if it came to my survival.

An endless supply of cats solves the problem of isolation. #futurecrazycat
