I suspect spaces won't work, but you could try to plain Synergy again. Sometimes, waiting a while seems to do the trick.

Dikiyoba thinks Nalyd was referring to the previous game's ending for the start of the next game. So when he said the fourth game goes on the Rebel ending, he means the Rebel ending of G3.

Edit: Typo.

Really? The caves I am most familiar with usually involve scrambling up or down piles of wet or icy rocks while keeping my head low with a flickering flashlight.

Flashlights and headlamps often fail in Dikiyoba's hands. No one is yet sure why.

Dikiyoba doesn't agree with that... Dikiyoba's dreams are often pretty disappointing as well. Dikiyoba dies in them too much. That hasn't happened in reality yet. :P

A2 Delrin Boks Fortress levers in The Avernum Trilogy
Councilor
Member # 6600

It's been awhile, so my memory of it is sketchy, but here goes.

Open up your automap. The levers are represented on it and you can see which side they are pulled to. Next look at the map of the tomb. The levers on the map and on the automap need to match exactly before you can get to Delrin-Bok. (At least I think so.)

Spam is annoying and meaningless posts. Spamming is frequently making annoying and meaningless posts (or worse, topics). Don't do it.

Congratulations, Lord Grimm!

Dikiyoba will not congratulate the Silent Assassin, since Dikiyoba's curtains are missing and there is a helmeted skeleton running around outside Dikiyoba's window with a flag that looks suspiciously like the missing curtains with "503" spray-painted on them.

You're in luck. Jeff is making Nethergate version 2.0, which will presumably run on Mac OS X and be out in the relatively near future.

Hmm... Dikiyoba wishes we had an updated list of the number of topics each member has started. It would be interesting to compare the post-to-topic ratio of people.

Edit: Forgot the graemlin.

Illustrations are hard to do, mainly because finding distinct and recognizable avatars for everyone is difficult. It's hard enough to come up with four or six, let alone sixty.

Also, slow it down a bit, Infernal Flaming Muffin. When I hit 573 or so posts in November, I was still only posting at a rate of about 17 PPD. Keep posting at your current rate (about 32 PPD), and you'll burn yourself out. Especially since you no longer have your sanity.
And we were all highly suspicious of you, too. I wouldn't be so worried about burnout, Infernal Flamming Muffin. At 30 posts a day, I'd be worried about getting canned and then banned.

Hee. Dikiyoba figured that out a long time ago. And Dikiyoba will now confirm that he will make an appearance in Episode 3, though not as a Minotaur.

How do I get to the Abyss in A2? in The Avernum Trilogy
Councilor
Member # 6600

There's no special trick for getting into the Abyss. If you've completed all three major quests, you've probably seen all of the Abyss you can see. Everything else is blocked off by Empire soldiers.

Dikiyoba doesn't remember having any problems visiting Harston, though. Dikiyoba remembers one guardpost (or maybe two) to hack through/fly over/present a pass at, but nothing more.

You are far too outspoken to be involved in any hidden conspiracy. :P

As for my name, it's an acronym that I invented in 5th grade (so when I was 10 or 11) then stopped using until a few years ago. In the intervening time, I forgot what it meant (though whether I simply forgot it or actively surpressed it is debatable). All I remember is that the first two letters stand for dinosaur.

Recently, Dikiyoba discovered a need for a last name and thus chose Nies, off a character in one of Dikiyoba's older stories.

If karma related to winning games, it would be completely useless. As opposed to almost completely useless.

Alternatively, high karma votes would go to people who beat every Spiderweb game. As a singleton. On torment. Without using magic spells, items, or skill points. With their eyes closed. In an hour. On their first playthrough.

Dikiyoba doesn't know what the karma vote for someone who completes Homeland in such a fashion would be, though. Karma so negative it loops around and becomes a positive five stars?

Edit: Typo.
