--until the most unarmed and defenseless looking person manages to kill him with a rock---

You mean Solaje is invited??

You're not kicking people who don't dress up? Where's the fun in that?!

You all are hardcore. I'm a shameless depart-er- being dead is beyond boring.

Player submitted rumors full of information/misinformation would be fun. I saw something like it in another MUD a few months ago, but I can't remember which one!

This would be awesome. There isn't any reason a horse can't be trained in multiple disciplines.

Congrats on getting that paid off! I'm sure fear of the unkown makes passing a kidney stone infinitely worse. No matter how bad labor is, you know it won't last forever. Plus you get a baby at the end. Hope you're completely recovered!

Haven't been in lately, but I always return sooner or later, so I thought I'd add a couple thoughts: 1. I wish people shared more on ESP. This was already touched on, but it's something that's bothered me. There have been a lot of times that I hear something, ask for details over the pendant, and am...

That makes sense. I just thought I'd bring it up since we have non-armor shoes now.

This isn't a big deal, obviously. Maybe the healers should put up a sign that says "Welcome, please remove your shoes"!

Now that I've noticed all the patients in the infirmary are shoe-less, I have funny images in my mind. It would be nice if all those poor people weren't walking around in their socks!

Here are some I've enjoyed. The balance of my reading diet tips toward non-fiction (history and poetry) more and more every year, so some of these may be dated. The "Acacia" trilogy by David Anthony Durham. I wish there were 50,000 books written about this world, but there's only the three...

Love that poem! The lost generation had some of the best authors/poets.

Never going to look at my garage the same way again. Place is full 'o weapons.

I have not been signing in as much as usual lately for various reasons, but here are some songs that have reminded me of Clok during the months I played. There were more that reminded me of Clok, which probably only means that I think about Clok too much. Not sure I'll be signing in a lot going forw...

What Acarin says about dodge gains is correct, but that was not what my question was about. This is kind of unrelated to your questions Smitty, sorry. I was asking about the recent change to tactics dodge- we no longer receive skill gains for dodge while in tactics offensive. The reason given was th...

" I don't know who you are. I don't know what you want. If you are looking for ransom, I can tell you I don't have money. But what I do have are a very particular set of skills, skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you let my So...

Thanks for clarifying, Zoiya. Guess I'll be using "think" a little more. =)

It's interesting that most people play a character with a personality unlike their own! And that most of us are IN (intuitive introvert) types. I did expect most of us to be introverted, no surprise there!

Most of what I think about playing a solitary character has already been said. Having at least one ally/partner in crime is really essential. There have been times when Solaje doesn't have that and I find myself grinding skills and getting bored. My character does talk to people, but as I said befor...

Again: This isn't a serious test! I thought it would be interesting to gauge how close our characters answers are to our own. I also thought we needed more fun over here on the BBS! Solaje was ISTJ(A), and I am INFP(T), but have gotten INFJ(T) in the past. I'm a percent or two over on the "P&qu...

Just for fun: Does your character's personality come close to your own? Try taking this test as yourself, and then try to answer as your character. http://www.16personalities.com/ I don't put much stock in psychology, but there are some things that hold true. It's Cheesy and silly, I know, but funni...

I don't mind answering questions about my character, within reason. Sometimes with Solaje I feel like I'm playing a game within a game. (A dream within a dream... oh wait, not the poetry thread!). Fayne, your alts seem like distinct characters to me. I do have trouble separating when I'm really tire...

The abneridge foothills area has nothing to hunt.

Haha! Perfect, Dorn. This job *is* sad and it *does* make me crabby.

Is there a song for prying up 36 year old linoleum with a pocketknife? Cuz that's where I am!

There were a few of these items auctioned off at the Grummer festival one year. I remeber one had to do with leatherworking. Someone who cares about crafting will remember better than I.
