    I'd love to go to GDC one day. It's that whole stupid money thing getting in the way at the moment, but maybe one day that'll change.

    Discussing an imposter ring for distant clouds

    By now you should know me. You can't bring up a term of that's of interest to me, that I don't know about, and expect me not to ask. So, what's the imposter ring of a cloud?

      You do realize that most games take a year or two with a team of programmers right? Actually my games still haven't been done. One came close. But the ideas I came up with are still unique. I just got caught up with live visualization/simulation without the plot. ;)

                His reply was the best thing I've ever seen in my life. Your offer here is to generous. If he accepts the former I want a Link-skin wallet but I won't pay much for it probably isn't worth much.:-D

                    I've considered that I'm either bored or simply apathetic towards meandering speeches containing immense words woven so closely within the context of the current dialogue. However, our hero has inspired me, and I therefore acquiesce to his challenge of vitriolic reparté. Still, he pursues a cowards's course in that he refuses to participate once the gauntlet is returned in kind. The last fair maiden that recieved words such as these became smitten with me. Nay, and I should expect the same surrender from one so lovely as yourself, for I am already smitten by thee. :) Man, how did people get anything done back then? All those flowery words just to tell someone you wanna hookup with 'em... Sheesh! :) -- modified at 14:01 Monday 28th August, 2006
