My well is connected to a gigantic reservoir made from water diverted from the nearby brook. No FBs will go in there!

Lol, it doesn't hate us as long as we pay for their salary increase while our infrastructure falls apart and people get sick.

I live in Australia. We may have the great Firewall coming up, but we don't have a government that hates us.

Ok, as of 4:45pm 17/12/11 I'm sifting through the chatlogs. i'll get back to you all in the thread once i've got a cohesive plot going. I might upload the PDF when I'm done if anyone wants to peruse it.
Also, I found this and some of the spriters may find this useful.

Due to intense graphics lag, I was unable to hit my healing spell 'Radiating Aura' in time against some level 5 gangsta who shot me to pieces.

Lord Reudh, former madwoman:
...And with that my sanity has returned. What is this? I feel clearer, cleaner, more vibrant than I have felt in decades! I'm still dead, but whatever caused my insanity has gone. Was it this 'Nemesis' i hear the other souls mentioning? Was it Stuzang being Toadinated? Was it Hellcannon's abominable soul self-destructing?
Either way, I only hope I am reincarnated soon. This lucidity has not been with me for many years.

Hung out with my best mates last night. One of them brought his new Kawasaki Ninja and we all had a go on it. FUCK THAT IS A POWERFUL MOTORBIKE. 0-100 in 2.5 seconds. Top speed: 299km/h or 186mph.
SO GOOD.
On top of the world atm, even if things aren't going my way. Having three good friends is just really good.

Life Advice / Re: A virus problem: Win 7 AntiSpyware 2012
« on: December 16, 2011, 09:56:19 pm »
Do you have a program that sandboxes new/unrecognised applications? If you know where Win7 Antispyware 2012 is stored, then just add it to a sandboxing list and watch as it fails to do a thing because it can't, leaving you free to kill it using an antispyware or antivirus.

« on: December 15, 2011, 08:44:48 pm »
Ah yeah Pnx, that's why I stopped using Fenrir.
Back when I played WoW (OH GAWD D:) I had a few names. Varok (for varok Saurfang, a character in the game), Nismo (because a friend named his after Mugen (honda's equivalent of Nismo), Nohwei (a friend had a shaman called Woah, so the idea was 'Woah! No way!'
I'm partial to the name Luonnotar or Blodheudd when playing as a female character, which isn't often. Luonnotar is the finnish primal goddess who created the universe when she accidentally knocked a nest over.
Blodheudd was a woman created to be the wife of Lugh (I think, i'm not sure) but turned on him.

General Discussion / What's the origin of your usernames?
« on: December 15, 2011, 08:20:20 pm »
Well, an idea suddenly occurred to me. Some of you have fairly unique usernames, and others just names- but they all have origin stories.
I'll start.
Way back in 2010 when i was playing Runescape, they introduced the 'display names' thing in which you could rename your character. I ran through a list of names (made up, researched, dog-language'd):
Llansing (from a game I had made)
Ruadh (too scottish for a fantasy game)
Acherus (taken)
Reudh (variant on Ruadh to make it sound easier- it's pronounced royth - the dh is a soft th as in 'that'.)
Rauthaz (proto-German for 'Red')
Amhara (arabic for The Red One).
I settled with 'Lord Reudh', but as I didn't have membership i couldn't change the name. Hence, i began to use it elsewhere.
This forum, however, is the first place I've used 'Reudh' without the Lord. The avatar I currently have is an image of 'Lord Reudh' as I envisioned him when I used to roleplay- he's no lord but he insists on being called Lord, and for the most part, people humour him.
I go by a few other names. Peregrine- a character I designed for a friend's game he was making as a final assessment- a little pineapple shaped vaguely kirbyish character who fought barehanded and by rolling. Fenrir- the 'world eating wolf' struck a chord with me. Ungoliant- the 'spider that overpowered the dark lord Morgoth' also sounded pretty cool.

White tails aren't venomous, but their fangs contain bacteria that causes necrosis. Believe me, i've seen it. One of my friends was bitten a couple of years back on his right hand and the skin turned black and peeled off. And it stank.

Gotta love the fact that although Australia has lots of deadly animals, we don't have rabies. Yet.
