Talvi left a message for me to say he's lost internet access again, and may be gone for a little while again.

Wow damn finally I meet someone who the world hates as much as me. Damn there should be a club for this sort of thing. Poor Talvi the world really doesn't want him on this forum.

I (somehow) wield a marble coffin that i fill with the corpses of all I have slain (to make an already heavy object even heavier) in one hand, and the other holds a book made out out of fucking platinum. The book can crush skulls, and the coffin grows ever stronger and now that is has a few dead dragons in it, it sends people flying a mile backwards to explode in a pile of gore. Gore which I then place into the coffin,

That club would then collapse, granting the world points. Don't do it.

Does America have some sort of NBN equivalent?

NBN? please explain and list the nation its from.

NBN: National Broadband Network.

It's a proposed fibre optic network that is being rolled out to people in Australia in order to get our internet speeds level with that of other countries - our average speed using wireless currently sits as fast as the Czech Republic or Hungary.
It beats the current setup:

-Dial-up (If you're in a rural area, this is one of your two options.)
-Wireless dongle (These have like 300MB download allowances for $40/month, and are the other rural option)
-Wireless modem (This is what most everyone uses. If you're far away from the telephone exchange, expect patchy connection and slow speed. I'm close to my exchange so I get adequate speed and adequate connection.)
-Satellite dish (Way too expensive for most people.)

Okay, so Tedaz's picture is finished:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Reudh requested that his Parasol guys be drawn wearing "Parasol Fatigues" without to my knowledge specifying what that meant. I couldn't find anything on the wiki, so I just Googled 'fatigues' and copied that. Let this be a lesson.

Also, I apologise for the sloppy-looking shading. I tried a new shading technique, but it didn't really work out IMO.


I TOTALLY missed this. This too, is awesome!

After a few days of no new posts, I get sloppy and forget to check up on this for 2 weeks.  Now that I'm back?  I find a mere 2 new pages of talk (I set the forum to display 50 PPP (posts per page)), AND not one of them is an update of the fort?! You guys should be ashamed of yourselves.  This fort feels like it might as well be dead.

I'm still not going to abandon this thread yet, Of course.  Just feel disappointed in you guys.

I'm just amazed that this is still going.
I tried to follow everything that went on, but 500+ pages is a bit much for me.
What I saw was awesome though.

Tahu's starting to press his luck. I understand he doesn't have much time but an occasional sitrep would be nice.

Sorry, I do realize that, but I won't be able to complete the year until Thursday, with a (probably incomplete) write up.
