He's totally faking it.
Re: Who admits to this ...? - TITVS SABATINVS AQVILIVS - 01-06-2007
Sure, and nor he's a good "actor"...
Just I don't understand why and why in roman armour, if he does not make laugh at all...?
Valete,

Some people must be really bored for entertainment? I don't understand the humor in it. Maybe it would be funnier if he was not in Roman armor/uniform.

Pretty sad in any costume! Whatever! :?

FUSTUARIUM!!!!!
for those amongst you who dont know what it is, it is a form of corporal (lethal) punishment for legionaries.
to be clubbed to death by your contubernium mates
which is exactly what this nutter deserves for insulting the legion or legionaries!

And the password should be "REPETE" as in the murder of Caligula according to Setonius...
Re: Who admits to this ...? - Gaius Julius Caesar - 01-08-2007
Thanks marcus! Always thought that was Decimation, one in ten chosen to be beaten to death by you fellow legionairies? But appropriate none the less! :lol:

Nope, Decimation is when one in ten gets executed!! Not nessecarily by your own fellow legionaries.... mostly not....
In the Judaean War Vespasianvs executed (decimated) a unit of Arab auxilia/mercenaries who discovered that there were a lot of people fleeing jerusalem, who then defecated at some stream, plucking out their swallowed gold and gems...
so that contingent of Auxilia/mercenaries started to kill a lot of civilians fleeing the city, disemboweling them to find the goodies....
which was not allowed, since Vespasianvs never gave the order to plunder....
in a way its "strange" since there also was an order to capture any fleeing resident of the city to be crucified around the city walls, after a while in the weirdest positions, because the Roman legionaries got a little bored...
it is said about 3000 people were crucified and put on display around the city walls of jerusalem... to show the rebels what was in stock for them...

Not strange at all. Since the order was to crucify them, not kill and plunder them, they had to be punished. Orders are orders, not following them means punishment. As simple as that, or maybe the refugees who were killed could no longer be crucified. It sounds all a bit lead for iron to our ears, but maybe, besides discipline, it robbed Vespasian of his terror weapon. For the refugees it made little difference, but personally I would have chosen the mercenaries - it meant a quicker death! :evil:
