Well, yes, except that anyone who actually wants to talk about SubTerra would best be served going here. I mean, honestly, I feel as though everyone's interests would best be served if Spiderweb took down everything about SubTerra and just put up a link to Radiant's site.

Originally written by Jumpin' Salmon:

I don't find it extremely meaningful to fly across the country to periodically meet people I've not seen in 20 years. My peer group knows first hand how effective I am in my work, and I'm not the type of person that needs to tell old friends just how successful I have become. On one hand I could walk away thinking about how they were more successful than I, and on the other I could just make them feel like feces because their lives are essentially meaningless.

I don't see the net gain.

Once A4 is released, discussion on it will likely move to the Avernum Series forum anyway.

It should do, but I sort of suspect it will just continue here as well. For example, why isn't THIS topic in the Avernum series forum?

That FAQ is not very helpful, I don't think. It starts out good, but ends up being spam.

...2...3...go!

Exactly what was that anyway?

This is a joke so in that I think only I get it; but I couldn't resist.

The most efficent coding scheme should assign the shortest symbol to the most commonly used statement. So I have decided that "1" should denote a standard expression of wry bemusement, which would surely be my most frequently used single posting around here. This is a radical way to conserve bandwidth.

More generally, I guess, by posting "1" I am alluding to the idea of having short symbols standing for arbitrarily long and complicated ideas, as in what Golem XIV called 'metalangs'. For some reason this bemuses me greatly.

Isn't it always summer in Australia?

It is always summer in Australia when it is winter in the Northern Hemisphere.

One might add, however, that there are many areas in said hemisphere (eg. Finland) where it probably is colder in summer than it is in Australia in winter.
