Didactic Fractals

Didactic Fractals is a room on Kongregate. It is arguably the best room in the whole website. It consists of Didactic Fractals, a good example being Marh, the owner of the room. Each Didactic Fractal, known as 'Fractals', room owner also has their own lucky charm in which they can access all of the secrets of Kongregate. We earned 4th place in a forum vote, but I think they just counted wrong.



= Jot-Downs! =

Didactic Fractals is peculiar in a couple of ways, and before you read information about it, it's best to know this.


 * Didactic Fractals is the first wholly-religious room (sorry zombinekiller!).
 * Marh is known to complain a lot. The users of Didactic Fractals don't know many other mods, so they just expect all mods are cranky like Marh is.
 * About every user in Didactic Fractals that isn't a mod wants to become one. Though... I guess that isn't actually that special :P

= Moderators = The owners of the banhammer.

Marh
The owner and creator of Didactic Fractals. Before Marh, the regulars of Didactic Fractals were even unborn, or wandering in the barren wasteland that was Kongregate before the Didactic Fractals saved it from impending doom.

aenh
The painfully quiet co. moderator, who created the name 'Didactic Fractals'. Is much more intelligent and behaved than probably any other user in Didactic Fractals, or even on Kongregate.

Modfriend
Use it. http://www.kongregate.com/accounts/Modfriend/friends

= Didactic Fractals =

Being the official religions of Kongregate, Didactic Fractalism's home room is Didactic Fractals (believe it or not).

About
Didactic Fractalism is a religion created by aenh and Marh. Didactic Fractalism. Followers hail YALORT (Corresponding to the element of Earth and the tempremant Phlegmatic), Lumia (commonly called Bast) (Corresponding to the element of Air and the tempremant Sanguine), Cthulhu (Corresponding to the element of Water and the tempremant Melancholic), and lastly Fullmage (Corresponding to the element of fire and the tempremant Choleric).



Sytem of Level
New followers are neophytes. Old(er) members are ostiaries. Somewhat-established and possibly OLDER members can be ranked up to acolytes. High-established senior members are priests. VERY senior member or very, very well-established mature members are High Priests. There only four high priests, one for each god. To level up you must refer users, hail gallantly, and just... be senior members.

= Alliances =

Didactic Fractals is known to form alliances with other rooms. Here is the list of 'allianced rooms':

Scribbles, Feed the Ducks, The Lair, Paradise, and Lunatic Pandora.

Rooms We Are On Bad Terms With
The Red Bucket, we are currently waging war against them.

= Rumors/Gossip =

Throughout Didactic Fractals' history there have been many rumors/ongoing jokes. Some about aenh and marh being the same person, or hellfang50 being nominated (both were derailed). Explanations for MindlessGirl's leave is yet to be explained, though it is speculated she had life matters to settle, or the trolls that were around at that time chased her off. Moogle21376's gender is also occasionally questioned. According to slasherx, Marh is Jim Greer in disguise.. So, apparently, Marh is hraM, aenh, and Jim Greer; what a guy. Though aenh isn't hraM.

Chatroom drink: Didactic Fractal Special
Sprinkle bottom of SHOT GLASS with chili powder, and splash in 90% alcohol rum (if not available, use Bacardi black rum).

Pour in Ale, and then pour in stout, do NOT let the drinks mix!

The end result should look like a Black and Tan, with a little surprise at the end. Enjoy ;)

All credit to ScaryRaver.

Non-alchoholic chatroom drink: YALORT Worship Brew
Get a MUG from your local kitchen cupboard. Pour in about 1 part ROOT BEER (use birch beer if desired). Fill the rest of the MUG with WATER and add one scoop Folgers COFFEE MIX. Microwave for 30 seconds. Drink, and don't wait for it to cool. :D

= The War Against The Buckets =

A war against the room The Red Bucket is currently being waged. People are being recruited at this time, as the news is still being spread. Warnings of this have whispered through the currents of the regulars (zomg poetry).

The Battle of Tea
The first unofficial 'attack' was on December 30th, 2008 by the users LawlExuberance, GielinorJay, and LOLcrayons. It was a failed attempt because we were much too friendly and ended up having a pleasant conversation. Apparently GielinorJay even stayed there with another user, Techline for a while, showing how bad all of us Fractalians suck at war.

The New Years Battle
The second battle took place January 1st. Marh, LawlExuberance, and GielinorJay went into battle with The Red Bucket. The battle lasted a long time and there were many casualties on both sides. Reinforcements came when elGrifo, aenh, Moogle, and ctg9000 came to aid. The battle then reversed, as the regulars came to attack Didactic Fractals, and very brutally. This eventually led to their retreat and our win.

The Battle of Confusion
On January 2nd Marh, LawlExuberance, kirby_dude, FireflyWarrior and aenh charged into the Red Bucket for battle. After some fighting, a truce was discussed between the rooms but no terms were followed. Didactic Fractals retreated and no room officially 'won'.

The Nihilistic Showdown
Nobody is sure when this battle started. Nobody was involved in a climactic duel of destiny. It is argued that because there are no people to stop fighting, and no place to retreat from, the battle is still going. Others argue that in doesn't exist and never started, but that's just silly. Nothing is known of the events of this battle, if there were any.

= Other Developements = Although it's other stuff, it's still related to the lovely awesome DF.

DF Blog
So far the Didactic Fractals blog has failed terribly, and will probably stay that way until one of the regulars gets really motivated (and most of the regulars are monstrously lazy). LawlExuberance volunteers. See? They/we aren't that lazy.

Other Other Developments

 * The official Didactic Fractalian map is still in process, and will hopefully be finished by February.
