Honestly, the man lived a good life. He saw the world, strived for peace, and did more than any of us probably will.

Personally, I'm a bit glad, because guess who we haven't heard about in the last 24 hours.

Back to the topic, I think Drakefyre should title himself "Attack Of The Pickled Turnip" just for fun.

If i ever continue to work on my scenario (which is of course, always in doubt :P ) it explores other realms. We know that mages are always experimenting with portals. thats how they found avernum/exile. Erika did it to get assasins to hawthorne, the destroyed the tower of the magi with one... you know the deal. So on that logical note, maybe they will find portals to other worlds (ala riftwar, the series, or stargate the tv show). Thats what Plateues is supposed to start to explore. of course i may never finish it and join the black hole of unfinished scenarios... dun dun duh!

Coordinate input would work pretty well, I think. Basically you'd need two consecutive Numeric Input domains in your script (one for x-loc, one for y-loc). Two problems would be party placement (which is a problem with any sort of teleportation) and the fact that the player would need a fair idea of their starting coordinates (it'd probably be a good idea to actually tell them the lead character's current location before the first Numeric Input.)

I think you should support the president of the US, even if you don't like him. It's disgusting to see that half of america doesn't respect their leader.

An oldbie is someone who has been around long enough to sneer at everyone who came later.

—Alorael, who will apply that definition to say that there are definitely people who become oldbies within a few months.

Coincidentally, Arancaytar was the name of the priest in Gale, in Avernum 3.

Seriously?

I am quite certain that I had the name before the game was out. JV ripped me off!

Well, I never noticed that before... sure it is spelled the same?

I guess I'm a somewhat older newbie. Or a very new middle-bie. Anyhow, newbiehood is relative. Don't forget that I'm nearly a year older than Kelandon, and of the two of us, he's twice the oldbie I am. :P

Where do I fit on the scale of newbie-ness, I'd like to know? I joined after you and before Kel, and the three of us are basically the only 2003-on new members that have been active up to this point.
