Sarpedon Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 My joke about that is 'Capital!' is the punishment you'll get if they catch you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arion12 Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 Continuing on ninja's point, i believe it is old english for an exclamation of "Excellent!" or "Great!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arion12 Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 MrCooper: Well his current life ambition is to regain the status of duke. You need a posh vocabulary for that! :biggrin: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triforce1 Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 I think it is great; an attempt to characterize the Gray Fox. He might as well have an upper-class vocabulary, because after looking at the Wanted posters around I was kind of dissapointed on seeing him for the first time in person. Wasn't as imposing as I imagined, but I guess he was just a thief with a magic hat. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tungol Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 I think it is great; an attempt to characterize the Gray Fox. He might as well have an upper-class vocabulary, because after looking at the Wanted posters around I was kind of dissapointed on seeing him for the first time in person. Wasn't as imposing as I imagined, but I guess he was just a thief with a magic hat. :P You can say that again. He looks pretty dorky. That cowl is the stupidest looking piece of clothing in the game. And he's not very tough. I figured it was just to be unique.But now I'm wondering, maybe there's some old-time hero like Zorro or Robin Hood who used to say that (I mean, as Errol Flynn played him), and its a bit of an homage. Have to watch them, and Captain Blood, again. I think its cool how if you ask the stranger, "Who are you?", later on GF will tell you he's told you his name x# of times already.
