They don't show any Spiderwebbers in Austrailia! :eek: I hope the sliths aren't Bush supporters. That would make them REALLY scary.

I see what you mean about the graphics style being similar to SW. They really remind me of GF. It looks interesting. I hope they'll have a demo.

AdventureQuest(www.battleon.com) is good if you like mindless killing. There's not too much strategy, but it's amusing.

Nothing so dramatic. My cat likes to sleep on the monitor because it's warm. She's been sick lately and threw up into the monitor.

I read in a book(it was about how people dealt with their pet peeves) about how this one guy started responding to those scams with weird characters. At one point he pretended to be Don Quixote. The scammer never caught on, even near the end when "Don Quixote" was traveling to meet him and complained about not being allowed to bring his horse on board the airplane. :P

I can't do that time. My school lets out at 4:10 and I don't get home until 5:00 normally.

As for your idea, TM I like it. I'm gonna play around with it on paper. Thank you!

Well...what if you can find a spellbook, but you can't understand what it says. There's also a crone in the village who is generally regarded as crazy and she translates it. It shows what Zama was doing. If you don't find the spellbook, you complete the tasks and leave the valley forever and are stuck in a horrible place. If you confront Zama, he kills all or most of the other villagers(maybe?) so at the end you are left either to abandon the valley or try to rebuild the village. Well? Thoughts?

I was thinking they do these three quests and then Zag will say "one more task..." Then this merchant guy stumbles into this valley. There's this guy in the village who's rebuilding his house and has a saw. When you ask him about it(there's no metal) he says he found it one day and assumed it was gift from Zag(the god). Then the merchant will say "Hey! That's my saw! I lost it a year ago(or something) while traveling". The the merchant will go on to tell you about the outside world and will mention magic(pretty much "for show") that sounds a lot like what Zama(the prophet) does when he communicates with Zag in front of others.

I just started a very small scenario which has one outdoor section and will have one town and one or two dungeons. It was mainly started to learn about the editor and I'm about a quarter of the way through the town. I'm nopt sure how quickly it will go with school, but I can probably get at least ten minutes a day in. The paragraph really is

Party lives in small isolated village and no one in the village knows anything of the outside world. The party is getting bored and wants to leave. The party's god, through prophet, offers to let them leave if they do 3 tasks. Party does tasks and in doing so finds that the god does not exist and the prophet is a liar taking advantage of the village. The party kills prophet(or something-that's the most obvious solution, but not neccessarily the best).

I'm on EST.

I'm trying to put in a special encounter but it's not showing up in the game. I put the area which will trigger it and linked it to the code but it's not working. Here's the code it's linked to.

beginstate 10;
reset_dialog();
add_dialog_str (0, "This is where the dead are remembered. The shrine is consisted of four small pools.", 0);
add_dialog_str (1, "Do you want to wash yourself in one of the pools?", 1);
add_dialog_choice (0, "Yes");
add_dialog_choice (1, "No");

I don't have any favorite groups or composers. For genre I mostly listen to rock or classical music. I must say though, that anyone who thinks classical music is boring should listen to the "Surprise Symphony". Just don't listen to it every day for weeks. It kind of loses the surprise element. I will never forgive my conducter for making the whole orchestra listen to the chamber orchestra practice...

Happy New Years! As well as celebrating the New Years, I feelwe should celebrate the food that either is screwed up in preparation or has morals. My food story is about a jar of enviromental pickle relish. It refused to open no matter what I did, but once I recycled some cans(in hope that my parents would come home and help me), it opened easily. :eek: :D
