You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I'd like to get started on the BSG game. I have four names, and three email addresses. Raq, could you send me your email address, and let me know if your husband is in for a game too? If someone else wants to join too, let me know and send me your email address. (My address is in my profile.) I'll then randomise a turn order and we can get started picking characters.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Could I use Lagarat at gmail, please? My yahoo mail is spotty.

move out and draw fire

insent, bt.

ION, when playing Fable 2 with a 4yo henching, fights will be really hard. The game ups the number of monsters, and your hench is likely to just stop and watch Dog while you all get pummeled.

Also, connubial visits are a bit hard to explain.

OMG! same brute is still alive in the latest tournament. Survived 5 rounds! Waiting for next opponent. He has a net. I'm worried. If he nets the wolf (and doesn't strike him), she could be done for. Anyone want to be pupil of a contenda? [link]

Holy cow! 136 points of damage in one smackdown! Impressive. Does he do that in every fight? How's he stacking up in tournaments?

Nope, not every fight. His success in tournaments is variable. Still, it'll be a long time before he has a chance of winning. the tournament winners are usually anything from level 30 to 70.

I don't know. I see yours managed seven, and I think that's probably one more than my best.

And you got taken down HARD. Still, you were level 5 v 10. And not only that, he's a powerful level 10; take a look at all the powers he has. No wonder he inflicted almost 60 points with that club!
