    You need a piece of chalk, generous amounts of black velvet, scented candles (preferably black ones), incense, the Necronomicon, a finely ornate knife and a goat.

    And don't forget to call the gods in the correct order when you invoke the circle.

    Final part of the ritual is to plunge the knife into your spleen as an offering.

    No, no. Don't listen to Grakelin. You actually need to cut out the eyes of every one of your family members.

    I assume you misread Dark Elf's post the same way I did. He meant we were drop-dead-serious, not that you should drop dead. Or I think so anyway.

    All I'm asking is how can I contact Tim Cain!! And Dark Elve's response seemed a bit like a joke...

    Why do you assume that anyone of us would have the faintest idea of how to contact Tim Cain? We're a Troika fansite, we don't socialize with their founders.

    Also, have you ever considered the very strong possibility that mr Cain would dismiss your fantastic ideas as yet another pointless fanmail?

    Your reasons for contacting him, specifically?

    I know I should have hyphenated it.

    I'd like to nominate this as the biggest PWN on this forum. The pure improvisational synchronization is perfect.

    Nah, we went to easy on him. We acutally ended up explaining the whole thing for him.

    I assumed it was just patronizing, since you'd usually figure that after six people in a row tell you to perform an occult ritual to summon Tim Cain, there's a minimal chance of contacting Tim Cain.

    And would probaly be true.

    Therefor the ritual to contact him. You know, you just don't walk right in to the World of the Dead and say 'Hello'.
