It's a good thing I was too tired to post when I read that for the first time, otherwise I would have made some spammish comment comparing the Harry Potter movies against the books.

It would not be appropriate for a person donating one of the prizes to participate in the game. Or would it???
It's appropriate, as long as you are entering for a different prize than the one you are donating.

Dikiyoba would like to know when the judging is supposed to be. There haven't been any new entries for a while.

That will just be the polite term for them. I can see vahnatai being refered to as "buggers" occasionally in future games. Probably by the same people who call nephil "kitties" and slithzerakai "lizards."

What is the name of your language? I'll make note of it on my list of names.

Dikiyoba's name can be transformed in many ways. Now it can be translated in many ways as well. (Human) nature abhors a vacuum and attaches meaning to the meaningless.

I won't complain about having some demons if they have motivation (and it sounds like they do).

However, I will grumble to myself if it features mainly demons/undead built for a middle-to-high level party. I do have four priests (well, three priests and a priestess) and they will use repel spirit mindlessly and I will be very bored.

However, a good plot and non-repelable enemies should make it very interesting.

Since this is in the Avernum Trilogy Forum, Dikiyoba assumes that all questions are about Avernum.

How did you first find Avernum?
Shareware CD.

What game did you first play?
Avernum 2.

Why did you play it?
Because it was on the CD and Dikiyoba was bored.

What is your favorite game?
Avernum 2.

Edit: Typo.

My character: I wonder who is behind these monster plagues.
Me: Rentar-Ihrno. Sorry, wrong game. I meant to say "a bunch of power-hungry Drakons and/or canister-crazed Shapers".
Hmm. Dikiyoba's conversations tend to go like this:

Diki's character: What is that? Whatever it is, I want it!
Dikiyoba: Oh look. Another canister. No, you may not use it yet. If you do, you will not be able to train in it later. It's all about raising stats to ridiculous levels.
Diki's character: It is? But I thought I was a loyalist, not a Barzite.
Dikiyoba: You're unaligned so that you can trade and train with as many people as possible.
Diki's character: Okay.
Dikiyoba: Hey! There's a robe on the ground! It's worth two coins! Get it! Get it!
Diki's character: Wow. Only one hundred more of these robes and I can buy a new spell!

Edit: Extended script.

Do not mock the Uni-Drakon! It is a creation so powerful that only throwing it into the bubbling cesspool that is the Geneforge will destroy it. And anyone who does that shall attract the wrath of the Uni-Drakon's older sibling, the Ur-Noob!

UBB doesn't like your new name. It's not showing up properly when quoted.

Dikiyoba's not complaining about it, either.

The fact that this is the weekend and not a business day probably has something to do with the delay.

In the meantime, run a singleton through the demo on torment mode or something similar to keep you occupied.

Sadly, I spend a lot of time on Spiderweb and yet I still don't do too much in the RP. I purposely picked a faction and a place where I could get away with that, though.

No, the Sholai don't appear in G2 at all. (Edit: They are mentioned by name in dialogue twice, but that's it.) For G2's setting and plot, that was acceptable. However, the one Sholai thrown into G3 didn't seem as acceptable. (I haven't actually played past the demo of G3, but I did read through all the scripts.)

Dikiyoba wouldn't mind being a Sholai rather than a Shaper in G4.

I would guess that floors types 194 and 195 are custom floors. Perhaps there's something incorrect in the floor's script that is causing the error.

Dikiyoba knows that more than one exist. Use the search function in the Avernum 4 forum to find them.

EDIT: Dikiyoba, you play the bassoon? Is it a difficult instrument to play? I'm very fond of the bassoon, and in my compositions, like the first symphony I'm composing at the moment, I always give the bassoon nice parts to play. Solo's too, of course.
Dikiyoba's hands are just big enough to reach every key. But Dikiyoba can play the B flat major scale in half notes. And that's about it.

The character editor is towards the bottom of the main screen. Once there, load up your game. If you want to just give yourself the item, go to "Advanced features" and select the "Give an item" option. After that, a little window will pop up. Type in "478" and you will recieve the opening stone that you will normally get as a reward from the GIFTS.

You are generally advised not to mess with the advanced features. Take my advice at your own risk.

Is Dikiyoba the only one who doesn't mind the GIFTS? Dikiyoba wouldn't want one as a pet, of course, but Dikiyoba doesn't feel the urge to wipe the GIFTS out of existance.

Edit: Typo.
