If you were wearing a kilt, then that means someone stole your kilt and replaced it with my miniskirt.

Yeah, you had your lawyer make sure of that.

But don't you wanna know who stole your kilt?

I will find out in time, and there will be much feasting among the crocs on that day.

Besides, who would keep you company if I went in search now?

Well, you could always send one of your cute little lurkers off to find the culprit. You know, delegate. That is what Lords do, after all, isn't it?

They are at work as we speak. they don't sleep oddly enough, so I should have answers before long.

until then, I shall sit here and drink and talk with you.

that and read the manual to Arcanum.

Sounds like a plan to me.

That's what I'm doing. Or...at least...I'm trying to. It hasn't made much sense to me yet.

BTW, what do you think of my new avatar?

Bloodstalker · Post by **Bloodstalker** » Fri Feb 08, 2002 11:02 pm

New avatar? I hadn't noticed. Cute though.

I am still searching for that one avatar that just screams BS

yeah, I don't usually read the manuals, but I started the game and it confused me, so here I am sorting through the dreaded details.

But at least it's Friday!

I refuse to touch this.

I read through Chapter 2 before starting the game and it still confused me. I'm reading Chapter 3 now. The manual isn't making much more sense than the game.

Edit: I just finished the chapter I was reading and it turns out I was reading chapter 4. *backs up and begins reading chapter 3*

As long as I am not the only one who feels this way.

I am having the same problems I always have though....where do I spen my points in create mode.

I think I am going to make an ugly escapee from the mental ward. Now there would be a challenge.

I do like the way the histories you can choose for your character actually affect the game though.

Yeah, that is cool. I also have trouble figuring out where to spend points in create mode. I ended up just creating an elven Super Model with all her points spent on Beauty, except for one point in Bows(IIRC). Then, in that first shop before starting, I sold her dress and didn't buy her any other clothing.

It's fun when you initiate dialogue with someone. They're like, "It's indecent for a woman to go around dressed like that!" Then she responds to their comments with things like "Otay" since she has low intelligence.

You have an obsesion with nudity don't you?

Not that I am complaining mind you

I think that character is actually model after some girls I know from around my hometown.

Well, it is late here so I think I'm gonna catch some sleep

So I will catch you later, hopefully before you find your skirt

Hey Ned, it suddenly dawned on me...

...why not setting up an in-house live band for this establishment? We can call the band "Men Without Pants"

and have those Red Hot Chilli Mushrooms a run for their pantless money! That would probably involve you, me, perhaps Gruntboy and his marines, Waverly (?) among others. BS could be the mascot and do what he does best --- wasted and out cold on the stage

McBane should be into this too (imagine only wearing his suit and tie and nothing --well prolly almost nothing-- below the waist).

We could have our jamming practices at the Men's Room.

So, what da ya say?

@ Maharlika,

We definitely need a new house band. The last incident of trying to pay off GWAR with electric shine was a bad decision.

SS and BS,

The manual is written a bit different. It's hard to pinpoint but it just doesn't read well. I'd recommend picking up the official strategy guide. This is actually a good one to have (normally, I'm opposed to any strategy guide). It's nice to have the maps. Seeing that walking around town is pretty slow, it's nice to have a map so you can look up where that shop is. some towns are real big and it can become a pain walking around trying to find a particular building.

Also, the strategy guide lists out each auto leveler scheme. That will give you an idea on how to plan for your character. I usually pick an auto leveler and then tweak it a little. the game is real fun although I bet I've only made it through 1/3 of the game. Right now, I'm level 17 so if you max out at level 50, I'm acquired 1/3 of the total levels available. Start some threads over in the arcanum forum or maybe you already have.

The Sound of Silence...

*

steps into the tavern

...seeing the whole place quiet, dark and deserted...gets his classical gee-tar then strums

...*

Hello darkness, my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence....

Ned Flanders · Post by **Ned Flanders** » Sat Feb 09, 2002 11:09 am

In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone,
'Neath the halo of a street lamp,
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence.

And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more.
People talking without speaking,
People hearing without listening,
People writing songs that voices never share
And no one dared
Disturb the sound of silence.

"Fools" said I, "You do not know
Silence like a cancer grows.
Hear my words that I might teach you,
Take my arms that I might reach you."
But my words like silent raindrops fell,
And echoed
In the wells of silence

And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made.
And the sign flashed out its warning,
In the words that it was forming.
And the sign said, "The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls."
And whisper'd in the sounds of silence.

Maharlika, that's one of my favorites.
