    Hey... Who is Tobias? I just had to see if it was anywhere in here, cuz it caught my eye when I saw it, you see, my name is Tobias... And I deeply doubted it was in memory of me...

    My exam was terrible today!
    I guess I have always hated geography.
    I did all the non-essay questions, which took about half of the time (we had 3 hours). Then I started on the essay. I got the first one done, and by then I was so bored that my brain wouldn't function, so I gave up doing the other two and started drafting ideas for KoSP.
    *sigh*
    Well only two more exams left over a five day period. So that gives me three days free!

    Lich ought to rhyme with "ditch" or "stitch". "Lych" was an old English word for "corpse". How it got warped into a term for an undead spellcaster, I have no idea. Silly D&Ders.

    It has been pronounced, I believe, as "leech", "leash", and "leak".

    DM: "There's a lich in this room."
    Player: "I step on it."

    DM: "There's a lich in this room."
    Player: "I put it on my pet wolf."

    DM: "There's a lich in this room."
    Player: "I plug it up."

    DM: "There's a lich in this room."
    Player: (rolls for initiative) "I roll a 21."
    DM: "The lich goes first. It casts Imprisonment on you."

    I rhyme lich with a word for female dog that some days I feel really applies to my soon to be ex-wife . . .

    It was an old term for body, and I think that since that's what has been kept animated by magic, that's the word they chose.

    To all those who have no idea who Tobias is: Look back a few pages! Or failing that, check the thread in CS, it shouldn't be too hard to find.

    Yep, the .CRE for Tal in the mod has a faulty script... But i'll equip the cre with a 20hp/s regeneration ring, a flaming staff and with a attack script... Then try to beat him! (He'll be tougher than Demogorgon)

    I'm back again!

    *hugs Chev* There, there....

    Now... today sucked. In my "lovely" meeting it was decided that the schedule would be sped up concerning me houling my existential being out of that hellhole. Go me!

    The parental unit bought me a scanner/printer/copier thingy... yayness. Can't wait to get to use it!

    Hmm... I wonder if that ring is pickpocketable? :D

    Yes, dealing with servants can be so troublesome, can't it? The things the underclass demands these days! Indoor plumbing, living wages, smoke breaks, three meals a day... I don't know how anyone is expected to run a decent household anymore! :rolleyes:

    Oh... wait a minute... you meant retainers as in after braces, didn't you!

    Never mind...

    I scored a great leather coat for 60% of the original price, AND got a new purse to match! :roll:

    Hey, little things make me happy - what can I say?

    [​IMG] I want my friend to download Witches Wake - Part 2, I completed Part one and now I want to play the sequal.

    In the meantime I'll just work on my own module when I get the chance.

    Once Frostbite gets the internet back - prepare for BG2 mods! Dragoneye Style!

    [​IMG] I wasn't sure if it was out, I presumed it was (or maybe wishful thinking)

    I like the way you get no experiance from fighting and purely from roleplaying. It's an intriguing storyline to say the least!

    Single Player Mode Reestablishing Failure. No way, not again, not like this. I object, I veto, I revolt. I'm not going to see this happen. I would like to apologise here to all my faithful readers who will be deprived of my fine writing for quite a long time.

    [​IMG] ...I like knives...

    eh. Anyone have any suggestions on how to deal with a caffiene overdose? This usually never happens but I swear there was something funny in the cup of coffee I drank a few hours ago.

    *restrains twitching knife hand* :coffee:

    Perhaps I should cut my wrist and bleed the 'hyperness' out... :bigeyes: :bigeyes:
    ...maybe not.

    I hate my mobile phone...it killed my phone book, won't let me get long distance calls or even make any calls...not even free calls. I think I'll use it for cricket practice
