Title: Taking a Break Because.....
Post by: tortall on November 06, 2011, 07:46:05 AM
I haven't been active on the forums in forever, though I've still been around in game.

Recently, that's changed. More recently, I got engaged.

We're doing a Muppet's Mardi Gras themed wedding, with me as Miss Piggy and him as Kermit.

Of course any of you can come if you wish, though currently the date is set for 12/23/12(with the bachelor/ette party set on 12/21/12, the end of the world) so I know almost all of you will be with family.... Playing Arm. ;-)


Here's the two of us the night he proposed:

We were at a Halloween party, and it was totally unplanned for both of us. I still don't have my ring, but it's being shipped.


Here's a picture of it though:

But long story short.... My playing time is no where near where it was (Ah, those 14 hour days....), so I decided to take a break and focus on my real, and wonderful, life.


Hope to still see you people at DragonCon or any other APMs that might happen!!

Grats! However, I'm curious. With the wedding and parties scheduled for a over a year from now, why take a break right now?

If my wife introduced me as a giant muppet, we'd have words. Angry words.

I took the bait, too. Good thing the baby can't read.

Congrats, dude. I'm so envious. Everyone's getting married and we still have no intentions of such. Well. I do, I just pretend I don't because he doesn't want to. :/

Boog, my cousin kept insisting she didn't want to get married even in the face of her baby daddy really, really wanting to get married.  After baby #5 she finally caved.  So don't give up hope!

Thanks guys. :-D

And erm, no idea how I managed -that- typo....


As for why I'm taking a break now with it over a year away.... Eh, Arm's lost it's luster for me once again. I still pop in a few times a month, but I don't feel the urge like I use it.

Haha, I've been trying to get him to play for almost a year. ;-) He says he doesn't have time. I say if we BOTH played TOGETHER and sat next to each other and TALKED.... ~shrugs~ But he was never a huge gamer.

You're doing it wrong. You're supposed to hook up with another arm player. That way, you're doing a dual service to the arm community. Getting some of us shut-in's a date, while continuing to maintain the numerical health of the playerbase.  :D

And Arm players, imo, could definitely use a bit of trading mudsex for realsex.

Funny thing, that. I started playing Arm because I had a crush on someone who was playing. My first -two- boyfriends I met through Arm(neither was the crush), and my third I'm marrying.

Does it count if I met him online as well? :-D

My third husband introduced me to Arm and was never as addicted to it as I am. If I married an Armer like me, one who enabled my addiction, we'd NEVER have RL sex :)

When can we expect new young role-players to be entering the playerbase?  You know in this day and age text online games suffer from shrinking playerbases.  We must all do that we can to offset the drop.

Oh yeah Congratulations!

Which husband are you on now, because if the above statement is true, none of them have been doing it right.

Mental masturbation will never be a capable replacement for GOOD sex.  8)

Congrats you two.

FYI brief hijack to say I'm taking a break as well, just lost a character I liked... oh so hard... so hard, but I have less distraction from RL which is good.

But back to the point, congrats OP and OP's fiancee.

4 - - and that was a joke to show how badly I was addicted and how bad it would be to have someone as bad as I - hence the smiley.

I'm not sure I agree with that last statement  :o
