Alright, haven't looked at the most recent version yet, but I'm loving the town design. Fort Orchid may very well be the first Empire fort that seems distinctly not depressing.

Would somebody de-stretch the board?

I somehow sense my imminent death... some kind of quickly-slapped-together plot to make me kamikaze into a horde of undead n00bs.

Thanks, Dikiyoba. :(

(strangles another scream of rage, then sighs)

Ed,

You've proved me right. You didn't read my posts. I can't believe you aren't listening... after all of this. (gestures to locked threads and general bad feelings)

And I honestly thought that MarcusL was just another account made by you, except that I read your webpage and know that he's another person.

Stop doing these things. All of them. Stop overreacting, and stop ignoring what the rest of us say. If you don't listen to a word we say (as you've done so far), then you'll never learn to stop annoying us so much.

I'm... (gulp) willing to give you another chance. But for the last time, [i]LISTEN!!!!![/i]

The soul-collecting idea is... well, quite frankly, it sounds kind of weak. Going off of the idea that any "capture soul" spells thus far have required crystals, any villain capable of that would probably be vahnatai, particularly if they're able to easily overwhelm the most powerful NPCs in Avernum.

The giant monster/bandit rebellion... it sounds like A4 again. Haven't we killed enough chitrachs yet? :P

No... Grah-Hoth was killed/banished in A1. So was Adze-Haaki. So it won't work.

And Glafna, more races won't help anything. You've basically suggested werewolves and vahnatai minus the body shape. Neither sounds particularly good.

EDIT: I believe this is post #1300. Yay.

Ed,

(sigh)

You know, you can stop this now. You can stop overreacting, ignore the people who annoy you, and have a peaceful and pleasant time at Spiderweb. Or, you can keep doing this, slowly but surely alienating the few of us who are actually willing to give you a chance.

We don't like farewell topics. The only ones that are ever true either end in a banning or involve Synergy. We know you'll be back, possibly faking French this time.

I'm going to do what I did with arghhhhhhhhh. I agree with others that you probably won't read this post, and that you'll come back again and be annoying again, perpetuating the above cycle. Prove me wrong. Read this post. For the love of all things good and pure, prove to us that you're making some kind of effort to listen to us.

I take consolation from the fact that if I get killed, nobody gets healed/revived. Ever.

In case you didn't notice, Aran seems to have completely disabled the Rankings section of the Endeavor.

And a question directed at Aran: what is the _ash-by menu item meant to be? I tried selecting it for the monthly summary, and got the stats for December 1969.

And Aran, you might as well answer the question that is on everyones lips: What about a yearly stat ranking?
This would be madness. Pure madness...

And I think Dikiyoba has the appropriate approach to this:

1. Nobody knows where she is, do they?

2. (moment of silence)

3. I don't want to know who asked for skewed/early stats. I guess we may be better off without the rankings, though... I feel that my 250-something posts this month were useful ones (or at least semi-sane ones), but I am well aware that many people posted far more than me, to far less utility.

In conclusion, I mourn the passing of a time-honored Spiderweb tradition, and curse the fools who consigned it to an early grave.

Even if you are using a laptop, you might be able to move using the keyboard. Does your keyboard have a number pad that overlaps with the letter keys? Some laptops have this (such as most iBooks), and it lets you use the number pad after hitting "num lock".
