    Yes, someone did care. But next time you should start a separate thread rather than shape an existing topic to suit your present needs. Next, no leet is allowed on this boards, not even writing '2' instead of 'to'. Also "you're" and your" aren't the same word. Please refer to Forum Rules and don't reply to this post here in this topic. Welcome to the boards and good luck :)

    *hugs RotKU* Poor thing. :)

    LOL. I think that chev just likes nagging newbies or what the bleep. I most certainly.

    Virne, does your name mean something, BTW?

    Just a question.

    Whee.

    Yes, it does. If you live in Estonia, you should know... :D

    To Hell with it, it means something like "smirk" or "grin", the latter being the more accurate one. As to the avvy slogan, it means "Every man makes his own fortune."

    Isn't it usually translated: Man forges his own destiny ? (freer translation, but a better sounding one)

    *hugs Eze* It was damned cool to see you there.... next time we shall meet in RopeCon! Still interested gaming in that Matrix game?

    In the Eryndia larp, I met a few other people I met in last year's con who were also planning a Matrix larp... which means, combo! Got loads of players.... only thing is, they ALL want to play agents! :p

    *still laughs at the Hulk/Smith imitations done by an Eryndia GM butt-naked in the middle of a lake...*

    Don't ask.

    I just have a few moments to drop by, I am in the local library emptying my e-mail and chacking stuff for the Rajakatse game... see ya there, Harkle! :D

    My character in Eryndia was a total munchkin. She was probably the fifth or so in terms of sheer magical power, immune to elemental magic (in other words magic used by anyone else than the Rojin... :rolleyes: ) could see despite being blind... and really, really evil, too.

    It was so cool... me and the other evil feathmage (the third one had to run for his life... :D ) had a major showdown with the good guys, accompanied by pyrotechnics. We had smoke, screams of "In the name of One God, die traitourous dogs!" dark elves backstabbing us and us surviving it and a major spell battle accompanied by fireworks.

    Heh, I threw a major screaming, dying fit.... 'cause I thoughjt my character died... but the gm comes and tells us that no, you aren't dead. So later I and the other girl escape, kill a random rojin on the way, and continue our way. We even survived our bodies being burned!

    The bad thing? After the game we found out that the random Rojin helfd the Jewel of Sh-someting, one of our main objectives in the game! :bang:

    But it was fun. So very fun. Even if my total sleepage in the night after was three hours on the cold hall floor, wraped in my thin velvet cloak.... :rolleyes:

    Can't wait for Rajakatse!

    Naw, what you say is his custom line displayed beneath his PDN. Your translation is correct. The most literary one you can get is 'everyone is the blacksmith of his own fortune' where blacksmith is the one who forges, thus 'each man forges his own fortune'. However, I would stress it being fortune and not destiny.

    As for his name, I was joking - 'vir' is man and 'ne' added to a word is used to compose interrogative forms. Literarily it would be 'guy?'.

    Now that we've set the record straight with Latin, let's please move on to the next point and it better be something interesting :coffee:

    Oh damn this tooth-hole, am I going to faint or something? :rolleyes:

    :coffee: :coffee:

    I want to cry...

    I am working on my Master's Thesis, and I just want to curl up with a large bottle of Jagermeister and disappear for a very very very long time.

    Hmmm - no, not cry - maybe die.
