Just imagine how quickly we could do things if we didn't screw around for a while first!

Quote:Caledorn: Server is back up now
Grimace: What happened?
Brick Astley: I didn't do it
Caledorn: No idea
Brick Astley: I swaer officer
Xenu: cool thanks. games need reloading?
Caledorn: It appears to have rebooted
All games are down
If one of you would be so kind, since I'm rather zombie, I would greatly appreciate it
Xenu: k, I'll reload them.
Grimace: Not a good idea to announce you're a zombie around a bunch of nerd.
Caledorn: Note. The computer is rebooting right now, so give it a minute and you should get in
Grimace: You're likely to get stabbed in the eye.
Caledorn: Ah, you're all in the US, so it's going to be a problem for you to do anything about it.
Grimace: We do have bombs and jets!
And we're not afraid to use them!
Caledorn: Obama is progressive.
Xenu: fire, I usually kill them with fire. that way I don't have to clean it up afterwards.
Caledorn: I'm fireproof
Xenu: my fire has a +5 against fireproof, neener.
Caledorn: I'm wearing a Rot weave armour +5 with fire damage immunity.
Xenu: no fireproof helm? BOOM! fire headshot.
Caledorn: I'm a zombie. No head.
I keep that under the bed.
Xenu: a convenient claim, one you didn't make until I claimed a headshot. I'm declaring shenanigans.
Caledorn: Well.. Maybe I'm just not a zombie...
Xenu: so..you're saying you CAN be killed by fire?
Caledorn: Yes. I'm afraid so.
So I guess I'm a ghost instead now, and that my new purpose is to haunt you.
Xenu: I don't have any gear for beating ghosts. this is going to suck.
at least you don't have a head, so you can't float around saying boo all the time
Brick Astley: You all are nerds
Grimace: Nearly-headless Caledorn
Brick Astley: I'm going to go back to watching the new Star Wars trailer for the 20th time
Caledorn: Giving head gets an all new dimension added I feel
Grimace: smile
Caledorn: Server is finally working now
Caledorn: You're good to go xenu

And only at that point did we get around to reloading games...:P

For anyone wondering, I'm already under treatment, so no need to send for the men in white coats...
As the Americans learned so painfully in Earth's final century, free flow of information is the only safeguard against tyranny. The once-chained people whose leaders at last lose their grip on information flow will soon burst with freedom and vitality, but the free nation gradually constricting its grip on public discourse has begun its rapid slide into despotism. Beware of he who would deny you access to information, for in his heart he dreams himself your master. - Commissioner Pravin Lal, "U.N. Declaration of Rights"

Hopefully that only applies to zombies?

I don't know about in England but in America everyone is fair game, going by the numbers. It's not all bad though, I think our rate of zombie infestation is mostly manageable. The men with guns have some good uses, I guess. The part about shooting first and asking questions later, though, does seem a bit careless. noidea Still, manageable zombie counts even this close to Halloween, so it's probably worth it.

Well. I feel safe, given that I'm incorporeal instead and my purpose is just making noise around xenu.

Actually in America I'm pretty sure they send for the men with guns regardless of what the problem is.

There's been a power failure at the server hall where our game server is located. The server is back up, but I have no clue what games are running at the moment, so I'm unable to start things up right now unless I get some help from someone who can tell me what games I need to reload.
