Ooh. Drakey, I think your next round of custom titles should come from Candide. You know somebody here wants to be The Woman with Only One Buttock.
Don't egg him on... and besides, the title would only work for about 10% of the community (and that's probably overestimating the gender ratio).

Anyway, my favorite classics (mostly stuff that was required reading but turned out to be good):
-Midnight's Children by Salman Rushdie
-Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury
-The Martian Chronicles by Ray Bradbury

Can't remember much else right now...

Eh, I'll try and make it regardless, but don't expect much from me for a while... my laptop died yesterday (I'm on a lab computer in my dorm now), and my internet access will be hit-or-miss for a while...

EDIT: Scratch that, I'm back in.

I'd recommend talking to the hermit before taking on any of the undead... toughing it all out while Acid Spray does its work is no fun...

General Scenario Design Contest in Blades of Avernum

Member # 4153

I hate to say this, but I am currently in stasis, and my scenario may be delayed or forgotten. My iBook of 2 years died in a big way last night, and I'm going to have to wait and see what can be saved. If my scenario-in-progress is too far gone, then I have nothing, and I will be hard-pressed to start from scratch.

This is incredibly annoying, 'cause I'm on Spring Break and this was supposed to be the one time of year that I'd be able to work on it!

(The one, tiny, little upside is that I have DoK stored on my Freewebs site, and can retrieve it at my leisure.)

EDIT: Huzzah! 'Tis fixed, and I miraculously lost nothing!!! Let the scripting continue!

Happy birthday, Tyranicus!

EDIT: I see that I forgot the second part of the question... anyway, I tend to shrug off my birthday for the sole reason that I'm circa 2 years younger than my peers. I used to cringe in horror at the very thought of it, because it meant more explaining why I'm this young.

I'm learning to live with it.

—Alorael, who thinks the nearest tunnel entrance is almost due north of Patrick's Tower. Just follow the southern wall of the Great Cave and look for trap doors.
There's also a fun way down over to the East of the tower (I think the next section over, in fact). It's full of basilisks and a few good valuables...

They have no purpose, as Alorael said.

Decoration, perhaps? Something to taunt rogues who can't quite open that difficulty 33 door?

what's your favriote genre of movie? in General

Member # 4153

I wasn't aware that PG, G, R, and PG-13 were genres, particularly outside of the US's film rating system :D .

But on-topic, anything comedy or sci-fi is good. Particularly old BBC sci-fi series... low budgets often breed good plots, lest natural selection gets the shows cancelled.

It just won't happen, arghhhhhhhhh. And there are simple reasons why:

1) None of the current mods will be stepping down any time soon.
2) As has been said, you still act a little newbish...
3) Many, many other people are more likely to be chosen on the grounds of seniority, sanity, and bribery.
4) Nobody wants another mod election.

The only other place I can think of to learn Dispel is in the ruins of Harston, west of the Abyss... and you need Dispel to get that far.
