    Heck yeah, shrouded hills!

    Anyway, my FB story is really similar to The_Bob's, just that i'm member of a theatrical company, and the only way to learn about rehearsals or announcements is there.
    Fortunately, I'm not as frustrated with my partners as The_Bob, as they're close to me, yet they like social stuff.

    I like Facebook. A quick and easy way to see all the stupid shit my few friends are posting. DE likes to repost stuff from George Takei.

    I get that without social media I have a 19th century technology called a telephone and a 20th century remnant called email.

    I also despise the text message its a PHONE not a telegram machine.

    Re:

    Not sure if this applies to Philes or if he's just spent the past ten years replaying the Crash Site.

    True, as drawn out as some people found the Chris Avellone video of his play through of the crash site I suspect that he will finish the game before Philes.

    Assuming Chris' playthrough will take him ~50 hours and that he'll continue his 20-minutes-every-two-weeks format, he should finish Arcanum in about 6 years.

    I suggest a race.

    You should send that info to Chris, maybe he'll finish faster than the amount of time it takes a kid to go from diapers to first grade.

    I think you're being a bit optimistic Gross, you can't really expect Chris to finish in under a day.


    What? I was a normal child.

    At least we're not talking negative time here.

    Not yet, but there is a lot to be expected, especially from piles and chris.

    Chris Avellone has piles? Maybe that explains why he can only sit and play Arcanum for 20 minutes at a time.

    Philes has piles? My condolences, old chap.

    I don't know if you're saying you went from the delivery room to primary school, or you were about 6 when you stopped using diapers.

    I doubt primary schools would let babies attend so I was referring to the latter, or at least lying for humorous purposes about the latter.

    I wasn't sure, though to be honest I may have been the only one reading who went both ways.

    Like a bisexual.

    I went a little bit one way, then scurried back to the safety of the other way.

    Like a bicurious whose curiosity is more of an affectation.

    For a lustrous blonde haired TDC?

    I also find "scurried" to be an unusual turn of phrase when it comes to deciding on sexual orientation, like you were some sort of bisexual rodent.

    I suspect that certain people would think that "some sort of bisexual rodent" was a pretty good description of me.
