Seriously? A Night at the Museum? I thought the main point of that movie was to take advantage of the Imax theaters... oh, and to ride an "all-star cast" (read: "we paid a lot for this so it had better be good") to favorable reviews.

Happy New Year, everyone for whom it is currently the new year!

As is, I just finished scrubbing a bathroom, so I'm not exactly in a festive mood yet. I expect a few more Twilight Zones will get me to that point, however.

Do you play music when playing Avernum? in The Avernum Trilogy

Ah, but it's so easy to forget that you're reading when it's a song that you really like, or one with really prominent lyrics. I've found that it's not very annoying when playing Avernum, though...

Listening to comedy, though... that's another story. That makes it really difficult to focus on the giant cockroaches without laughing. And it's even worse when you're trying to code stuff in BoA.

Yay for people who have/will have/might have entries!

(The town limit might end up biting me... I have one town in my scenario that's just the upper floor of an inn. Very annoying, but oh well... I can cope.)

Or, like, you could give the weapon salesman a dialogue response along the lines of...

I agree, unless you pay close attention to which weapons get brought over.

Don't worry, you didn't really miss anything that was even remotely pertinent to Blades. No comprehensive log was taken, and that might be a good thing...

That said, the 1/10 contest is still up in the air.

Ah, that's an easy one. I prefer Divine RETRIBUTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(But honestly, the A3/Boa Retribution wasn't terrible... if the damage were a bit more impressive, I'd use it a lot more. And just so you know, A1 and 2 didn't have the spell at all.)

Okay, this happened to me as well... the only way to get out of it is to use the editor and Take Out of Town. Then, walk to the north, go get the chief's permission or whatever it was, then go back to the bandit camp. You'll pretty much instantly be cleared to keep going.

Sounds like a decent plan to me. I'm probably going to end up doing the same thing between now and moving out of the dorms again in May, particularly since I have no idea what kind of living situation I'll be wrestling with next year.

I've got it! I resolve... to buy a llama!

Then there's the question of whether or not you have the most recent version of BoA. If you don't, then Exodus is definitely going to make your computer cry.

The GIFTRs were a nice touch, in my opinion. They really broke up the monotony of the roach plague... you know, put a happy, chirpy face on the whole thing.

Personally, I really didn't like how the GIFTSs looked in A4. They just weren't brown and fuzzy enough anymore...

That sounds good to me.

EDIT: Really, I'm clear for pretty much any time Thursday. In fact, I'm probably clear for any day except tomorrow (the 27th), and New Year's Eve/Day.

I really should resolve to spend less time here... :P

As for things I'm actually going to do, my resolutions will probably include making multiple BoA scenarios, and listening to more of my older music. Oh, and to get out more.
