Your Worm religion?

[Virgilio]

What's your Worms Religion? Do you pledge to the Brightside, Darkside or Lightside? :)

For people who forgot or don't know, it's in the Wormpedia (if you unlocked it):

Lightside: A religion which goes more about close combat, fighting to the death, and being brave. :p

Darkside: Sneaky, evil, usually back-stabbing, who likes to dig, hide, and mostly use girders for protection. Uses more homing weapons than close combat.

Greyside: Kind of like a mix between lightside and darkside, but it does have pledge to greyside unlike brightside.

Brightside: A side with no commitments. When it has the occasion, it will choose to be a Darksider or a Lightsider.

Me? I'm a member of the Darkside religion.

[jerms]

Brightside :p i do whatever :)

[Focus]

I am a pure lightside!
I dont like to hide and im always ready for good fight ;)

*smells worms-religion discussion and jumps over here*

heh heh, haven't seen one of these in a long time.

anyway, I'm a huge lightsider (about as much as K^2 is a darksider), I'm just not claustrophobic, so I'll tunnel through ground to get to my opponents if needed.

you DID forget greyside though. it's a mixture of the light and dark sides, but greysiders actually acknowledge their religion, unlike brightsiders.

[EP_Guy]

I am darkside fighter, kills all naughty teenagers! :) Lightside wereever I am!

I am a greysider
I use different methods, depending on the mood I'm in.

Okay so there is more of them...
But i have heard of some "ironside" is this true or false?

[WeXzuZ]

Im a ligtside.. But in some situations a may use darksiding tactics (rare situations though)

There is probably no word in the English language that hasn't been prefixed to "side" on this forum at least once. In general I try to rule out any "side" with only one member, but there are far too many splinter sides that differ only incrementally from each other (the brightside/greyside split being the least of your worries) that I generally just ignore them all completely now.

[Akuryou13]

But i have heard of some "ironside" is this true or false? iron, sewer, sniper, etc etc etc etc etc....there are so damn many of those fake sides that people made up just cause they thought it was cool that it gives me a headache. all those side are based off of the light, dark or grey side. those are the only 3 legitimate sides. the bright side is the group of atheists, they may well be on one specific side, but they refuse to call themselves a lightsider, etc. other than those 4, the other sides are stupid crap people made up and they should be disregarded as the feeble attempts by insecure preteens to be unique :p (note: if you're one of the off-side guys and you're neither a preteen or insecure, I suggest you get a life :p )

[yappydog]

Seriously Brightside... my motto is "Whatever, Whenever!"

[Fwd. Adm.]

Darksider when i'm fooling around with newbs on WormNet, and Greyside when i'm actually playing against competitive players. I'd be Lightside, but on occasion I use girders as protection and use girder packs to guide grenades and stuff through a tunnel-type thing.

[Focus]

definetly not!!! :eek:
As i said i am pure lightside...

[Preasure]

I tend to start off Greyside, until I've used up my worms/lightside weapons, then I send my last couple darkside. I usually finish with one worm on abut 25 HP.

[dansworms]

Darkside.
I take advantage of holes and bunkers and call in airstrikes.

[EP_Guy]

My cosin is a darkside and a grey side. Mostly darkside. He like baddies.

[MrBunsy]

Back in W1 I was a darksider alright, I used to be very good with grenades (a nank I've seem to have lost recently, I must practise again) and build crazy tunnel networks and gurder systems. Alas, now in W3D I'm lightsider/ likes to see things go *pop* sider. hopefully W4 will provide somehting akin to tunnels.

[Oil]

I am Brighside and a little flipside

[Fizz]

Lightside :p !

Here are the ten light commandments... LOL jokes.

[Akuryou13]

My cosin is a darkside and a grey side. Mostly darkside. He like baddies. if he switches between sides he's greyside, not greyside and darkside.

[TintinWorm]

Well, it is kind of hard to be a darksider in W3D, since you can't dig, so I tend to be a lightsider.

[AndrewTaylor]

if he switches between sides he's greyside, not greyside and darkside.
How can you switch in and out of greyside? There is no greyside tactic set. It's just a name for not really having a tactic set you stick to. He's just a darksider with commitment issues.

[Akuryou13]

How can you switch in and out of greyside? my point was that you can't. if he switches strategies a lot, then he's just a greysider, not grey and darkside.

[erm i d'no]

hmm...im not sure, all i use is sheeps and other animal weapons and i useually end up commiting suicide by putting a sheep between mysself and the enemy :p

[Akuryou13]

hmm...im not sure, all i use is sheeps and other animal weapons and i useually end up commiting suicide by putting a sheep between mysself and the enemy :p WOW!!! I've never seen anyone that uses so little skill or strategy that they actually don't fit into any side!

...and here I've been saying for years that everyone fits onto a side....guess I was wrong. :-/

[Made in]

DARKSIDER! MWAHAHAH! But I don't really care :p Sometimes I just feel lighter :)

[Boggy_B]

DARKSIDER! MWAHAHAH! But I don't really care :p Sometimes I just feel lighter :)

I'm a darksider but still a bit lightsider. If it's Sudden Death i don't hide anymore becuase of the water :)

Here is a quote from PP's Mission wormpossible
Donkeys, Buffaloes and Giraffes... Oh My!

From what I gather, he two main factions in Worms are the Star-Wars themed Lightside and Darkside; Lightsiders play out in the open, positively and bravely, while Darksiders hide away, play a negative game and are basically cowards (or "tacticians" as they prefer). So far, so simple. Now for the heavy theology.

To Lightsiders, their god is the Concrete Donkey (aka Betong Asna, Swedish for Concrete Donkey - Worms creator Andy Davidson is for some reason a big fan of Swedish), a weapon in the game that is dead handy for getting Darksiders; it will get you, no matter how strong your defences are.

Many Darksiders also worship the Concrete Donkey, because of its great power. But the evilest Darksiders believe in the very peculiar Buffalo of Lies, which is apparantly so evil it's... well, evil. Use your imagination.

To add to the confusion, step forward the Greyside. This is somewhere in between: Greysiders will play like Lightsiders, unless something goes horribly wrong, in which case they fall back on Darkside tactics. As a symbol of their mixed up nature, they worship the compromise Concrete Buffalo. Very strange.

And you probably don't want to know about other hypothesised Sides such as the Sewerside (stuff winning, it's all about having fun and making big explosions) or the Flipside (people so jammy they can do anything and still win hands down), both candidates for the totally bizarre Angular Wooden Giraffe (What the heck's it for?). It's all nuttier than squirrels in the mating season...

(Incidentally, the origins [if not the purpose] of the AWG are now known - it was a small wooden ornament with a missing ear, that used to reside at T17 HQ. For some reason, Mr. Davidson took a shine to it, hence its slightly bizarre position in the Worms mythology).

The loopiness of it all is why, personally, I go for the Atheist option. Stuff all these bizarre beliefs, I just play as I see fit, depending on the situation. It makes life a lot easier... And after all (cheesy soundbite approaching) "You're not out there to good or bad, but to do business" (i.e. Paul.Power's Worm's Sayings No. 4)

[Akuryou13]

Here is a quote from PP's Mission wormpossible that's quite out-dated. the Concrete Bufallo doesn't exist, the AWG is the god of the greyside, and ALL darksiders worship the Buffallo of Lies

[tanchekhoe]

i'm a birighto

[mac_o]

I'm lightsider. I very high trained on ninjarope and shotgun.

[AndrewTaylor]

That barely qualifies as "lightside" as I understand it. Those are rather cheap weapons to my mind.

[The Necro]

I am a darksider in 2d and a lightsider in 3d. In other words I play at the way it's the funniest.

[Akuryou13]

I'm lightsider. I very high trained on ninjarope and shotgun. that makes you a roper. being trained at roping is on par with being trained in hurling feces. while still useful, it is entirely hated by everyone and makes everyone want to kill you.

Is being a lightsider in 3d better? Ok, there aren´t any good darksider tool at all....

I´m a true lightsider. Never being a darksider.

Worms 3D was like it didn't had sides at all. You could only hide behind some map objects like tanks or in bunkers. Unless you used the shotgun in D-Day to make a hole to hide in.

[Julian]

Im a ligtside.. But in some situations a may use darksiding tactics (rare situations though)

Your brightside then

[Akuryou13]

Your brightside then actually, he's a light shade of grey :p

brightsiders are the atheists of the group. they can be dark, light, or grey siders, they just don't admit to it.

[pinoocho]

Im a lightsider, but if I only have one worm left, I become darksider :rolleyes:

[manitou]

I'm brightside, and have a tendency to go darkside if I'm losing. But, I usually end up losing through stupid mistakes made with things like Holy Hand Grenades, which set off a chain reaction which generally has net negative effects for me...

[Julian]

All the time brightside im rubbish in diggin (well in a short time) girders sometimes i like bunkers though.

And fizz is kamikazeside or something

When i played him onna internet hes like kill if kills jump of the cliff if not jump onto a cliff 20 m lower

If he kills someone he kills himself and if he dosent he jumps muuuuuuch lower he only plays high levels

[yappydog]

When Fizz kills someone he kills himself?

Sounds like you get a lot of draws that way.

[Fizz]

Hey everyone,

The only reason why I played so horribly that time was because I was up all night typing up a religion project due that day and afterwards someone dragged me into "Worms 3D" :p . No new religion for me...I was a tired lightsider. Back to the topic :D .

[Krazy_92]

Im A Bright Sider Muahahahaha

[Akuryou13]

Im A Bright Sider Muahahahaha the fact that you claim a side disqualifies you, me thinks :p

[pilot62]

That would still make you a greysider, nowadays everyone seems obsessed with the brightside.

And fizz is kamikazeside or somethingI think what you mean is the sewerside, yes, its a bit of a pointless side but it is widely recognised.

[lordsith12]

Darkside! everyone who says you can't be darkside in 3D can kiss my...ok i wont go there, but im probably just brightside, since im an EXTREEME PUPPET MASTER and don't really care, but since i acknolige this, i guess im a greysider who loves the dark!
