The Game's Down Thread.

[Zoan]

Because the game is down, I figure we can keep all our angst and fretting to one thread. THIS THREAD IS IT. So to alleviate our boredom, I propose we just start hating on everyone and everything:

I sure hate those intelligent half-giant gemmers in Red Storm.

[Mourn]

I hate people who hate my intelligent half-giant gemmer I play in Red Storm. 

[lordcooper]

I hate people who eat beetle meat.  Possibly in Red Storm.

[Fredd]

This is all a trick. The game isn't down. The game is done.

Tommorrow we log into arm 2.0

[Cindy42]

I like pushing people off the shield wall.

is it okay to make most of your characters of a single (IC-sensitive) race that is not human because you love playing them and can't possibly want to play anyone else? is that okay?

i LOVE PUSHING PEOPLE OFF THE SHIELD WALL

GIVE ME MY ARM BACK!!!!! ahh.

I love Arm and I love the people who made it and they can take their time. I just love this game and wish to shout my displeasure at not having it when i finally made an appointment to get some game on. i continue to shout and cry like little girl, and then go watch

THE FIVE DEADLY VENOMS

which is a wonderful and surprisingly complex and old martial arts movie.

you a martial arts or chinese fan like me go check it out its at walmart for real for real.

GIVE ME MY ARMS BACK ah hu huh huh huh huh huh hah. I WANTS IT

i hate beetle meat but i gotta eat it sometimes.

i hate thirst and hunger. i hate sandstorms and dark knights with only one useless moon.

i always surmised that the black moon was the Dragon, just a guess. like he's sleeping and going to kill us as soon as we get back into the game.

I WANTS INSIDE ARMS. mmmm.

The armless, tattooed person is here, running about in a panic.

[Cutthroat]

"I WANTS MY ARMS BACK!"
exclaimed the armless person,
in panicked tatlum.

Turns out the problem is because of an account mishap with the ISP. They disconnected us instead of someone else across town. Give it about 24 hours or so to be restored. Sorry for the inconvenience. Blame the ignorance of the phone company.

If I were staff, I'd be asking for a free month of service from the ISP. 24 hours? Boneheads.

[Cindy42]

you guys wanna rate this from 1 to 10?

i like criticism. or don't read it. i hate poetry. i made this up today! yay!

-------------------------------------------------
skulls peering out from the sand,
half-buried in their mindless rest,
and colored orbs revolving
in the red and burnt-up sky,
and this is where water comes from,
cold-eyed templars that point at someone else,
always someone else,
and no one says a word.
tall red walls and the whispers
of the one section of town,
a thin film above the ground,
the dark tower,
their relationship to the land,
blood in every dream you have,
fire spirits devouring the world,
a long, grey film settling over everything--
and everyone---
and someone has poured water onto the dirt
and has lain down on their side,
holding sand in both hands and gazing at it with love.
rukkian
lowering your eyes,
wondering not,
suppressing small thoughts that get weaker over time as
your life gets more feeble and more estranged;
white robes passing by,
and then life resumes again.

and after all this you don't wonder and survive,
and the blood in your dreams slowly means nothing at all,
nothing is a surprise anymore,
and be glad they chose not to take your life as well.

"in my dream, the black moon unfurled like a shadowless flower,
and grew sharp-edged and a long, winding tail swept out
to grip the world in one fell move,
and an immense, film-dusted mouth with teeth the size of mountains
opened wide with a sound like a horribly sad and suicidal sigh,
and ate the world in one powerful thrust."

A swordman has these swords for sale:

A bonesword 2000000 coins

A bonesword 40000 coins

A stick 0 coins

Lame joke...bah.

[Cindy42]

how long will it be?

[Zoan]

I think we broke Cindy.

[Barsook]

how long will it be?

The post said 24 hours, so THAT LONG.

[Marshmellow]

Reconnection of service can take up to 24 hours for all sorts of services, and I'm assuming that's what'll happen here.  Operating off that assumption, the game may be accessible at any time, actually.

[Saikun]

Well, at the very earliest it will be tomorrow morning, US east coast time. I can tell you for sure it won't be tonight. So no point in poking at it all night long. I'd suggest sleep, or failing that, take to the streets and wreak havoc.
