Hello!

Confucius says introduce yourself here.

Confucius says he wants to know you are extraordinary.

I wrote a couple things. All these young 'uns don't know how to write anymore. Of course, they need to invoke the Muses, but that's beside the point.

Stuff I wrote:
The Iliad
The Odyssey

I wrote Recherches sur les Substances Radioactives, L'Isotopie et les Éléments Isotopes, et Traité' de Radioactivité.

Mon Pierre et moi together won the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1903. Sadly, mon cher es mort.

In 1911 I won the Nobel Prize for Chemistry on my own.

J'adore radium.

ARR, YE DON'T KNOW THE LEGEND OF BLACKBEARD?

MY HEADLESS CORPSE SWAM 3 TIMES AROUND MY KILLERS SHIP

I HAVE NO TIME FOR SUCH IDIOCY, YE SCURVY LANDLUBBERS

I founded the first Norse settlement in Greenland. I got exiled for three years for "some killings". I don't usually take note of everything I have to kill, but apparently some of them weren't supposed to be killed. But if you take my setstokkr, your legs better be longer than your fingers, for nothing will save you from my wrath. It was worth the exile.

I have my axe ready to crack open the head of the next youngster who asks me to yell "Fusrodah" or something like that. Does that really mean anything? What do children these days think my people the Norse were like?

Introduce myself? Bah! I'm taking over! The golden horde shall rule over this group! Or we'll burn it to the ground!

474342
Confucius says you win.

474344
I claim this group as my own! The golden horde will reign supreme!

474342

Oye man. You speak of golden hordes, yet I was able to conquer a CIVILIZATION with DOSCIENTOS viejos and some ignorant Indians all for THE CONQUEST OF GOLD!

I advanced almost every field of mathematics in my time. Some say it was the apple that inspired my three laws of motion, but that's the story they told long after my time. It required months of research, not an afternoon in an orchard, for your information...

I wrote Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica, and along with my mathematical rival Gottfried Leibniz, underpinned the rules for differential and integral calculus.

I like apples, but I feel they are credited overmuch.

474350
You conquered some mangy primitives. The golden horde conquered the great power of China, then made all of Europe quake in its boots as we moved west! I conquered a fourth of the world, you no-good European! I could defeat you in ten seconds flat!

474352

Canons, enough said.

474355

Canons, enough said.

Son, the written word ain't gonna stop a horde. My horse archers will pepper you with arrows before your diplomats can give me any sort of negotiations you might write up.

Can we at least pretend to be civilised for a moment? I know it's hard, but I'm trying to determine the properties of light, while you two are squabbling over powder kegs and ponies.

474359

Then we will just go to the sea and pepper you with CANON FIRE!

Hope your horses can swim.

Savages, the lot of you.

474359>>474364

Gentlemen, gentlemen, let us diffuse this situation. We are gathered here in a legacy of new friendship, not war!

I am Theodore Roosevelt, but my friends and supporters prefer 'Teddy.' I've seen my fair share of battle and I've punched a few teeth out every now and then, but I see a bright future for this establishment! Perhaps we can go hunting some time? Hah!

... I came here in hopes that I may be blessed with the wisdom of Confucius. Instead, I find some mangy Mongol and a Spaniard barbarian going at it like two monkeys fighting over the last banana. Calm down, the both of you. Listen to what this man says. >474532

We hath, perchance, arrived to hear what the great Confucious might say, but instead found ourselves swept up in a ballad of fire and brimstone. 'Tis a sorry state of affairs.

474364>>474359 HA! You're both a bunch of sissies who need to fight from a distance! Let's fight up close and personal, and THEN we'll see who's best among us!

474739
Pah, and risk losing? No thank you! I'll shoot you down where you stand before you can do anything! And then I win! So take that!

474888 That just proves that I am the greater! Only cowards fight from afar! And that's besides the point. It'd take more than couple of arrows to take ME down!

474891
A couple arrows? Pah! Try a few hundred thousand! And enjoy being "greater" while you're dead, puny European scum.

475036 Death on the battlefield is the greatest honor, fool! I will enjoy being greater from the foot of Ares' throne! Meanwhile, he'll curse you and your arrows will turn to rubber as you shoot them, glancing off my comrades chest plates, as they cut you down from atop your horses!

Death on the battlefield is the greatest honor, fool! I will enjoy being greater from the foot of Ares' throne!

Achilles is a far greater warrior than you could ever dream of being. And he received no great glory or honor in the afterlife. I am sorry, but you are quite mistaken in your views.

I am quite disappointed, actually. I would have expected the Spartan Kings to know such things. Times have changed since Menelaus was king...

477037 I will admit. Achilles is far greater than I. However, that is besides the point. He is greater than both I and the Mongol fool over there. This argument is between me and him. Achilles, no matter how great he is, has no point in here!

Pah! This leadership thing is no fun! Not enough pillaging!

Do either of you know what a civilized conversation is?
