np. I just hope that your life returns normal again

Next week I have family around and so will not have too much time available updating... Shorter posts at the very best. I must introduce to the Brits the concept of a siesta!

Holiday Monday has messed up my calander, so hadn't appreciated you were well passed your busy weekends. As long as you're ok and everything's fine now, then all good!


And the massive level of heat at lunchtime surely makes introductions unnecessary? Just introduce them to an unairconditioned room

Yeah. It should be back to normal. Well as normal as it ever gets around here. Keep on keepin on, hmm?

Welcome back Raixel, glad the delays were pleasant rather than unwelcome.

Don't cry!

Aww, I guess thigns didn't quite get back to normal. Eiher that or my pun was truly horrible.


Either way, hope things are ok Raixel!

I think you broke Raixel. She is unwilling to ever approach the internet again after that pun.

But seriously I guess work and/or internet problems.

For me the one week break has been perfect I have a friend around and have ZERO free time until Sunday.

Hope all goes well raixel

I am away on hols for two weeks, so if Raixel reappears go on without me!

Oh noes! Ok, you have a fun holiday!

Enjoy!.... Didn't he just have a honeymood? Blimey these PbM things do go on for a long time don't they

Yes they do! Hey, it was last week in 2009 when we first started this board and gaming group That's three years already!

Hey OB! How was your trip?


And I see Raixel did log in at the start of October, so is around in some way. If you see this, hope everything's going ok! Come back to us sometime!

Trip was good, thanks! I was in northern Spain for 2 weeks (The Official Holiday Destination of the Thiy and Artaxes Thread, since Ian was there not so long ago). Very nice. Also popped over the border to Portugal. Did you know you can buy a beer in a bar in Portugal for 80 cents? With free tapas thrown in to sweeten the deal. You almost feel bad.

That was over a year ago!

Gosh. My honeymoon was 10 years ago but if feels like 20

Speaking of time going by so quickly, money just sent a quick pm to say 'hey' and wanted me to say hi to the rest of you. He's doing fine, and he now has a second kid too!


Hope Raixel's ok, it's been November since she's even quickly lurked

Congrats money. Hope raixel is ok and comes back!

I had a much longer post written, but lost it. I am a bit disrupted atm, in the middle of a big move and currently no broadband. Slowly typing this on my phone in a cafe.

At least Money is keeping himself busy

Big hugs to raixel

Hey all! How goes things? I've noticed this game has sorta stalled... and right at a good bit too
I haven't read all of the Thiy & Artaxes story yet. But, I've read all of Sssil's story and it's great. Must admit there have been a few surprises in there

And "HI MONEY!"

Hey, I have said hello before in another thread when I saw you came back, but I'll say it again - hello! And Thiy and Artaxes don't disappoint either, lots of fun character stuff and gruesome plot stuff to see there. Keep reading!


Ameena just told me that Raixel is still around - busy with real life but not with anything bad. Apparently she still is thinking of coming back for the game, perhaps, so weeeee. Even if she just came back to lurk and post in the forums in general that would be cool.


So anyway, that's where we are with that.


How's everyone, anyway?

Well I'm good...looking forward to getting into action in this game again as I was really enjoying my character and the general whatever that was going on and stuff - makes a big difference from the other RPG I'm currently in where I generally have not much idea of what's going on and keep forgetting stuff I do know because it's moving fairly slowly. Hopefully we can get back to lizard guys in the swamp soon!

uff, been a long time

Not got so much time (perhaps inclination?) at the mo, but am always ready to read a paragraph of Raixel's flavour.

Hopefully Raixel will be posting here soon - she'd lost her password but Wuffy will have furnished her with a new one by now - we just gotta wait for her to pop in and say hi .

Well, I just finished the Thiy & Artaxes thread... I'm really liking the story, but it's a shame that both stories have stalled at exciting bits (Sssil could be about to have a bunch of Chaos worshippers kicking the crap out of him, and the other thread doesn't look too far away from that either )

BTW I noticed something... why didn't any of the NPCs ask if Thiy and Artaxes are related? (He's repeatedly calling her "sister" and when the translation spell was going, everyone would've heard it... should've caused at least some confusion or questions IMO)

I haven't read any of that other thread - I don't like to risk "tainting" my character's knowledge with my own if I know more than she does, since I tend to forget, after a while, what she knows and what she doesn't (if I know something OOC that's relevant but which she doesn't) and may end up accidentally having my character reference something she doesn't actually know about, or take an action she wouldn't have taken if she didn't know something, etc.

@Ameena: I can understand that completely, especially in a story full of strange words and concepts... even more especially for poor Urrffruh, that can't really understand stuff all that well

The translator maybe translates the concept of 'sister' in to a religeoius context. Or it's maybe so obvious that they are related because they look the same to the lizar, and so it's not questioned

Good point, Beo. Hadn't thought of it like that. But, I still think that at some point one of the younger lizars should question them about it... "You brother and sister, but you so different" for instance.

Good that Raixel is potentially back. And welcome back LB, it has been a while!

As for the sister thing...well Artaxes calls her sister, they were (apparently) travelling together, and they are both human. Plus they bicker all the time. Definitely seem like brother and sister.

That was my thinking too... thus, I'm surprised Raixel never threw a question or 2 from the lizards about it.
