Well, shoot. You answered far too quickly. Now Dikiyoba has to hurry up and write the next chapter.

Sometime after Dikiyoba gets a direct answer denying or confirming that Salmon and Emperor Tullegolar are the same person.

Well, most of the time. Dikiyoba just hopes the new encumbrance system in G4 is really good, because it appears to have the same "improved" inventory screen that drove Dikiyoba nuts in G3/A4.

Sure you can. All you have to do is be vegetarian for a few months, then not be, then be a vegetarian again...

It took me a while to decide, but if Tyranicus is still doing the map, then I will be Madagascar for the sake of keeping things simple.

Otherwise, Dikiyoba definitely wants to be Pangaea.

Dikiyoba finds the perpetual look of annoyance on Worf's face hilarious. Not every cat can pull that off.

Jewels obviously doesn't want to be held to the high standards that we've come to expect after the Periodic Table of Elements anymore with all the mistakes on this list. :P

Lenar is not Israel. Lenar nominated Infernal to be Israel.

Trinidad and Tobago (the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago is the full name) is a single country. Now all Ephesos has to do is justify it.

And Dikiyoba still needs a country.

What is your favorite food?
-No opinion. :P

What is your most hated food?
-Hot and/or spicy foods.

Is there any circumstance under which you would eat your most hated food?
-If winning a reasonable sum of money or bragging rights is involved.

What is your favorite beverage?
-I've given the direct answer too many times, so I'll just say that my goal for the previous year fell short because I ended up getting a Dr. Pepper shirt for Christmas.

What do you normally cook spur of the moment?
-If I need a snack, I normally just grab some fresh vegetables and a bottle of ranch.

Are you a vegetarian?
-No.

What is your favorite dessert food?
-Ice cream, of a variety of non-fruit flavors. Cookie dough is good too.

What is your favorite type of chocolate?
-Dark chocolate.

Favorite pizza topping(s)?
-Pepperoni, olives, mushrooms, and more mushrooms (because no one ever puts on enough).

Favorite breakfast?
-Biscuits and gravy.

Least favorite breakfast?
-Cheap or stale donuts.

Favorite protein food?
-Peanut butter.

Favorite fruit?
-Fresh-picked strawberries.

Favorite vegetable?
-Common purslane for nibbling (when I can find it) and tomatoes in salads/sandwiches.

Favorite popcorn topping?
-If Dikiyoba is only allowed to choose one, then carmel, because popcorn with just butter or just salt wouldn't be as good.

Emperor Tullegolar is not Jumpin' Salmon, if that's what you meant by that.

Also, Dikiyoba has finally updated the Appearances page.

The game says absolutely nothing about what types of spies the servant mind used.

Personally, Dikiyoba tends to think of them as small, terrestrial animals like lizards or mice.

You have too much time, Nioca. (But it might prove useful in the future, so I'm not complaining.)

Originally by Emperor Tullegolar:

Edit: Oh, and a question: Did I slip and fall or did I actually bang my head against the panel trying to make it work?
This is right after all the forums moved, so you fell. I also don't think you could have stayed hidden from Drakefyre for long with Nemesis and Garrison around to sell you out, so you had to strike while you had the chance.

That's Dikiyoba's reasoning of your reasoning, anyway. :P

I always thought Avernum was generally warm. There are several comments such as this one from the entrance of the Verdant Valley in A2:

quote:
You enter a wide passage through this enormous stone mound. The corridor is very drafty. Though most of Avernum is warm, the breeze is very cold. This area is out of the ordinary.
Dikiyoba admits that there are probably several comments that say Avernum is cold as well.

Dikiyoba has this theory that the Internet is like canister use and demon obsession; it eventually drives people mad and they do all sorts of strange things. But other than that, no.

That's because the eyebeasts were created from vlish just like the drakons were created from drayks.

From Fenen in G2:

So I've started working on Chapter 27, and I realized I'm missing a piece, so I'm adding a small section to Chapter 25. Sorry. (The new text is in bold.)

quote:
...The Almighty Do-er of Stuff opened the trapdoor to the fluffy turtle pit. "Come on, Inspector Walnut. We've found a source of sanity for you, but you will have to fight for it."

The fluffy turtles climbed out of the pit and shuffled around agitatedly. Saunders jumped into the pit and lifted out a few who were so weak they couldn't climb out on their own.

In the Moderator Board, Garrison and Nemesis dropped the equipment in a pile.

"Nemesis, guard the door. Garrison, start putting everything together." Emperor Tullegolar walked towards the Administrator Panel.

"But I don't know how!" Garrison said.

"You'll figure it out!" Emperor Tullegolar examined the Administrator Panel. It was dark. He pushed a button and the displays came to life. The largest one read, PASSWORD REQUIRED. "Password? I have no idea, and I don't want to set off any alarms. Oh well." Emperor Tullegolar joined Garrison. "No, no, no. You're doing it all wrong. Here, attach this piece to that piece, and then run this wire from there to there. See how easy it is?"


The Almighty Do-er of Stuff led the fluffy turtles to the Announcements Forum. "Make way, let the fluffy turtles through!"...
Edit: Typo. And of course it's in the quoted section, which means Dikiyoba also has to fix it in the story itself.
