What do you mean, funny? There's nothing funny at all about discovering you can't just call yourself "Synergy" anymore. -S- -------------------- A4 Items • A4 Singleton • G4 Items • G4 Forging • G4 Infiltrator • NR Items • The Lonely Celt Posts: 2009 | Registered: Monday, September 12 2005 07:00 |

Have you tried using a space either before or after your name? It would be nice to see Synergy back. Posts: 4643 | Registered: Friday, February 10 2006 08:00 |

I suspect spaces won't work, but you could try to plain Synergy again. Sometimes, waiting a while seems to do the trick. Dikiyoba. Posts: 4346 | Registered: Friday, December 23 2005 08:00 |

There is no almost in my daily name changes. Sometimes I'm late and sometimes I'm a little early, but on average it's once per 24 hours. Vacations and extended power outages don't count. You might be able to use space, and you can definitely use a period. The UBB is no match for human ingenuity! —Alorael, who really finds clicking to be the much more convenient solution for occasional diagonal movement. That's what cursors are for.

Welcome back Synergy. Next time create a new account when you feel the sudden urge to change you name. Posts: 4643 | Registered: Friday, February 10 2006 08:00 |

Thank you. The transformation is complete. No further mutations required. It only took me about a year to get my nick back. :mad: -S- -------------------- A4 Items • A4 Singleton • G4 Items • G4 Forging • G4 Infiltrator • NR Items • The Lonely Celt Posts: 2009 | Registered: Monday, September 12 2005 07:00 |

It could be worse. At least the boards didn't eat your account. —Alorael, who offers up bright orange libations to the Random Number Gods and the UBB in the hopes that both will have mery on him. Strangely enough, Angband seems not too much more arbitrary or dangerous than these very boards. Posts: 14579 | Registered: Saturday, December 1 2001 08:00 |

It's all so clear now: the only reason Alorael changes his name is because every twenty-four hours he attempts to return his PDN to 'Alorael'. When this fails, he bangs out a random string of characters in frustration. -------------------- OK, gang, goblins up ahead. Everyone make your Move Silently check. Right. Got it! I got a 17.

Actually, I am beginning to think that Alorael's daily name changes are the waste product of the supercharged Angband name generator he's been working on all these years. The PDN changes when he is forced to reroll. -------------------- Slarty vs. Desk • Desk vs. Slarty • Timeline of Ermarian • G4 Strategy Central Posts: 3560 | Registered: Wednesday, November 7 2001 08:00 |

Well by the same token, K would normally be directly down; whereas clemmie apparently found it moved her diagonally. Weird keyboard. -------------------- "I can't read this thread with that image.

quote:I said that I was the center of the keypad (the 5 equivalent), and clemmie said that K moved down. K is the equivalent of 2, so that's reasonable. Pressing I shouldn't move you at all. If you move by using the arrows, they move you north, east, south, and west so that pressing up moves you up on the automap but diagonally on the main screen because of its perspective. The keypad moves you according to the screen, not the map, so pressing 2 (or K) moves you straight down, or southeast. —Alorael, who thinks the arrow keys were well planned. Only moving on the diagonals would make the game entirely impossible to play. Bishop's Avernum would at least be an interesting challenge, though.

I was. Downsizing is no fun at all. —Alorael, who is now only a temp filling in as the special function buttons on fancy keyboards. Posts: 14579 | Registered: Saturday, December 1 2001 08:00 |

Oh of course - this reminds me why I never use the keyboard in Avernum. I hate that 45º rotated movement thing, because I always look at the Automap, not the main screen, when I walk. -------------------- "I can't read this thread with that image.

In the happy friendly spider pit there is a liquor once rubbed around your body you won't have any problems for a wile with sticky annoying webs. -------------------- You can jump off a bridge, fire a gun in your mouth, drink poison,or going in to the tiger's pit but you will still end up dead it's a mater of time and how .

Actually, that only lets you past one specific web barrier. It doesn't help you against normal webbing, I don't think. Also, I think you posted in the wrong topic.

You're right, it doesn't work against normal webs. And it's actually from A2. -------------------- Either I'm crazy, or everybody else is nuts. And I know I'm not crazy because the little man who lives on my shoulder told me so. If people don't think there's something wrong with you, there's something wrong with you.

Although I found the only thing useful for doing all that work was the Key Item. I sold everything else of value, except for the Strength Potion. Lifesavers against Blademasters and Null Bugs in the masses from levels 13-17. Also nice for a small boost to pull me through the fight. Oh yeah. Hi everyone. I just joined. :) Sorry. -------------------- "Hi, I'm Spider!"- The funniest, most insane part of all Avernum/Exile. Kudos to Vogel. RIP Mortax. I will always remember you. Always looking for a scenario to take a look at. A pretty good player who is looking to become a game reviewer. More than happy to help out designers with some player reaction, if they want it.
