This is so totally The Ten Commandments.

I eagerly await the swarms of locust and frogs!
Child, child, if you come to this doomed house, what is to save you?

Cannot log in until around 5pm CST. Save me some.

Sounds kinda low.  You'll probably need to turn it up.

I've come to the conclusion that relaxing is not the lack of doing anything, but doing something that comes easily to you.

Tiernan, thanks for taking care of the weather issue. Staff is always really willing to help make even the weirdest of weird playable, and I really appreciate that.

Thank you.

I'm amazed that each area of the game had individual echos displaying how the areas are reacting to the events!

Mansa, you're not amazing.

But yeah, I thought that was awesome - it must have taken a lot of work to set up different echoes for every area.

My impression is that they don't set that stuff up ahead of time--they have individual staff working on it, as events unfold, and as they watch what the PCs do. But I could be wrong about that.

I want you all to know that I'm very pleased how my plot is going. You see, I've been working the last 2 years to guarantee that all humanoids in 2.ARM will have evolved huge, bulging eyeballs. So, thanks for helping out, and remember...player-driven!

I'm just waiting for a Krathi to go into the Rinth and go OMFGBBQ and light the place up.  That'll get a good solid riot going.

BTW, Tiernen, your avatar and picture sig make me about the happiest ever.  EVER.

I had an extremely new character survive an HRPT. The 'kill them all' scenario, actually. New chars can definitely survive.
I tripped and Fale down my stairs. Drink milk and you'll grow Uaptal. I know this guy from the state of Tenneshi. This house will go up Borsail tomorrow. I gave my book to him Nenyuk it back again. I hired this guy golfing to Kadius around for a while.

And old ones can die in an instant.

It's all a dice roll, and how lucky you are, and how much understanding of the combat code you have.

p.s. Thanks for fixing the weather, Tiernan!

Suk-Krath hides like a twink. Seriously, we were in the middle of a freakin' conversation, and he just disappears? Sneaks away like there's a whole crowd of celestial objects to just blend into? Yeah, twink.

The only thing worse than having a new character die off the bat is having an old one die in an instant.

For everyone, I would suggest adopting the mindset that your character -is- going to die. There's no way to prevent it, all you can do is delay.

You know what happens if you type "watch suk-krath"?
The sword is sharp, the spear is long,
The arrow swift, the Gate is strong.
The heart is bold that looks on gold;
The dwarves no more shall suffer wrong.
