I'm grateful to a certain Faithful who sent a certain character of mine to a certain location, on a mission of no-importance, and, without knowing it, kicked
off a whole bunch of wonderful events in mah life.

I'm also grateful for my AI strength roll.

- I'm grateful for the great players I've had the pleasure to game with so far.
- I'm grateful for the imms that animate NPCs when you wish up.
- I'm grateful for the imms that just randomly animate NPCs or create room echoes to liven things up.
- I'm -also- grateful for the imms that have supported many of the RPTs I've been on and made them extra terrifying/awesome.
- I'm grateful for those totally out-of-the-way places that my character can explore, and the cool, vivid descriptions that so many of the rooms have.
- I'm grateful when typos/bugs I report are fixed.
- I'm grateful for the huge number of items we have IG, so that I'm not always seeing the same damn item over and over again (in most cases, anyway).
- I'm grateful for magick in the game, its code, and how it's treated ICly.
- I'm grateful for the Byn latrines.

Man, I could go on and on and on. Basically, I give Arm a thumbs up.  ;D

-I'm grateful for anyone that spends time out of their busy day to help increase enjoyability, from Staff, to Leaders, to "petty" criminals with diplomacy skills.
-I'm grateful for the ability to anonymously send out kudos to people, because I know it brightens their day when they do something "mundane" and get appreciated.
-I'm grateful for clan imms that get back to me on time, with vague news on the path of my character, both giving me hope, and wondering what I'm doing wrong.
-I'm grateful for the ability to, after playing this game for almost two years now, still learn syntax commands and areas I'd never been to IN CITIES.
-I'm grateful for going outside the gates with an independent character and finding an old friend, dead in the wastes, and getting a free tent out of the deal.

Seriously, I could go on and on, but I'm keeping it to 5.

... the neat nooks and crannies of the world.
... people who vote for Armageddon on The Mud Connector and Top Mud Sites.
... my past PCs and their situations.
... my current PC and its situation.

I'm grateful for the players who work so tirelessly to make this game what it is.  As staff, we can provide all of the canvas, all of the paints, and a myriad of brushes, but without players, those ingredients would not be art.

Thanks so much to all of you who make the game into a living, breathing thing.

Players that play your average joe with so much reality and intensity

Players that RP realistically around magickers

Players that spend sid on bards and indys IG

Zarlo

Having multiple taverns to choose from in each city and little things like an abandoned alley

The Byn

I am grateful that in Zalanthas I can cook regardless of my lack of cooking abilities in real life

I love all of the awesome little items you can find in Kadius and the fact that there are SO many of them

I love the Original Submissions page

I am thankful for the other PCs that are around during my off-peak AND peak hours. Thank you for keeping my from that hw that I still have piled up. :-D
I am thankful for all th n00bs that have worked with me, I want to smash you most of the time, but I loved watching you actually learn to RP


Wow, that actually sounds really negative and I don't mean them to be...

I am thankful that Kronibas brought me into this wonderful world.
I am thankful for all the friends that I have made through this game, some of which I feel will be around for the rest of my life.
I am thankful for the wonderful players that helped me in game and the ones that helped me me OOCly.
I am thankful for being a helper and being able to give back to the game in the (IMO) best possible way, next to being on staff or a good leader PC.

I am thankful for the GDB and the wonderful dysfunctional family that we have here.
I am thankful that we are able to piss each other off on a daily basis and still come out loving one another. ;)

I am thankful for the vastness of the the world and the knowledge that I will never be able to see it all.
The crafting code.
The cooking code.
Guild Ranger.
Necker elves.
Bald dwarfs.
Scary as Drov muls.
Subguilds.

Kryl. (so Sci-fi, yet so Zalanthan)
Scrabs.  No matter where my combat characters are based, I am never satisfied with my ability until I see how I do against them.
The Sea of Eternal Dust.
IC friendships.
Wanting to cry IRL when an IC friend or mentor dies.

*sigh*
I am thankful for Crackageddon! Look's like I am going to be a lifer.
