Fifth Law: So Much Depends on Reputation - Guard it with your Life

Quote

Reputation is the cornerstone of power.  Through reputation alone you can intimidate and win; once you slip, however, you are vulnerable, and will be attacked on all sides.  Make your reputation unassailable.  Always be alert to potential attacks and thwart them before they happen.  Meanwhile, learn to destroy your enemies by opening holes in their own reputations.  Then stand aside and let public opinion hang them.


Deadline: Sunday, September 5th


Zap's entry for the fourth law will roll over here:

Elf Icon : (04 September 2010 - 08:59 PM) definitely
Elf Icon : (04 September 2010 - 09:00 PM) Chris Columbus in 1492, but the Vikings were here wayyyy before that
Kimothy Icon : (04 September 2010 - 09:00 PM) OKAY.
Kimothy Icon : (04 September 2010 - 09:00 PM) That gives Arthur an excuse to disappear a bit and have the Doctor and Elizabeth, er, court. xD
Kimothy Icon : (04 September 2010 - 09:00 PM) 'CAUSE HE WAS LOOKING AFTER BABY AMERICA~ :3
Elf Icon : (04 September 2010 - 09:00 PM) because Vikings are awesomesauce
Elf Icon : (04 September 2010 - 09:01 PM) awwww baby America :P
Elf Icon : (04 September 2010 - 09:01 PM) we're still a baby country though :P
Elf Icon : (04 September 2010 - 09:01 PM) 1774 was technically our birthday- we're not even 300 years old yet
Kimothy Icon : (04 September 2010 - 09:01 PM) xDD
Kimothy Icon : (04 September 2010 - 09:02 PM) Not as much a baby as mine~
Elf Icon : (04 September 2010 - 09:02 PM) true
Elf Icon : (04 September 2010 - 09:03 PM) but that's because you kept being taken over
Kimothy Icon : (04 September 2010 - 09:03 PM) xDD Northern Ireland. We like to be complicated.
Elf Icon : (04 September 2010 - 09:04 PM) it's not your fault everyone likes invading you
Kimothy Icon : (04 September 2010 - 09:05 PM) xD The british did invade, but then split us from teh southern counties in 1921, according to Wikipedia. THEN IT ALL REALLY BEGAN.
Kimothy Icon : (04 September 2010 - 09:06 PM) Irish Civil War, the Troubles, and so on.
Kimothy Icon : (04 September 2010 - 09:07 PM) But we ARE teeny, though. Northern Irish population is only about 1 million. HYou could fit seven times us in London alone.

Kimothy Icon : (04 September 2010 - 09:12 PM) I lvoe how I'm on the internet for YEARS and never find anyone Northern irish, and then come to a small, vritually unknown forum recommended by Kat... BAM I meet x_cracking. xD
Elf Icon : (04 September 2010 - 09:13 PM) hehehehee but claire is made of awesomesauce and amazingnesscookies.

Elf Icon : (04 September 2010 - 09:15 PM) agreed! I only know two of you but you definitely are. :P
Kimothy Icon : (04 September 2010 - 09:16 PM) But anyone on this site must think that the Norn Irish are INSANE between my crackfics and healthy doses of Nightmare Fuel, and then Claire writes about serial killers.
Elf Icon : (04 September 2010 - 09:16 PM) I wish I was made of awesomesauce. I'm American, which means I'm made of arrogance and lame.
Elf Icon : (04 September 2010 - 09:17 PM) hahahaha kim, honey, it's not that the Norn Irish are insane, it's that writers in general lack sanity.
Tezcacoatl Icon : (04 September 2010 - 09:18 PM) I'm made of cells and tissues and organs and stuff.
Elf Icon : (04 September 2010 - 09:19 PM) hi Tezzie!!! -glomps-
Kimothy Icon : (04 September 2010 - 09:19 PM) *pokes cells and tissues and organs and stuff*
Elf Icon : (04 September 2010 - 09:20 PM) -tackles kim with love-
Tezcacoatl Icon : (04 September 2010 - 09:29 PM) Hi guys. c:
Tezcacoatl Icon : (04 September 2010 - 09:30 PM) It feels like forever since I've talked to anybody here, even though I know it hasn't been very long.
Tezcacoatl Icon : (04 September 2010 - 09:32 PM) ...and now you're all gone...
