I was under the impression that it might be something along the lines of testing that the user posting a topic wasn't just a spambot. Quoting Unreg Bob from 01:55, 8th Aug 2008 What's the test exactly? Are we not allowed to swear on here? I didn't realise this place was censored as if we were chines...

Would it not be slightly more relevant to get books on Microsoft Access, seeing as it's the program in the Microsoft Office suite that deals with databases - as opposed to Excel, which is for spreadsheets? Alternatively, could indeed be a spreadsheet that needs looking at, not a database. [hr] Somew...

I was under the impression that that would be the 21st of June for the Summer Solstice, seeing as I thought it was around the 21st of March that marked the Spring Equinox and thus, the start of Spring...

...Good grief, with this manner of thread about, if I had the power I'd command Humphrey Lyttleton to rise from his grave and moderate the boards around here. :P [hr] Somewhere in chaos we all find ourselves, This destruction is the only tale we tell, White is black, black is white, Right is wrong a...

Quadralien, after a computer game nearly as old as I am. The naming of the game itself came from the alien mother's four hearts... Good enough a place as any for a username - the game's music certainly stuck with me for several years, despite only using the PC speake for it. [hr] Somewhere in chaos ...

Took a silver ring to Mordor? Ye daft bugger, you've got the wrong ring! Certainly would have made an interesting ending to Lord of the Rings, that... Erm, anyway, getting back on topic, sorry to hear about the ring - alas, haven't seen it myself. [hr] Somewhere in chaos we all find ourselves, This ...

...So you're suggesting we have two separate entities entitled Games Soc and GameSoc? Are you aware of the term "complete bureaucratic nightmare"? [hr] Somewhere in chaos we all find ourselves, This destruction is the only tale we tell, White is black, black is white, Right is wrong and wrong is rig...

Hmm... I think I have a counter-argument. Global economic depression (from acting on global warming without a cause) leads to opposition of current governments, allowing various extremist parties to take control in countries. Expansionist goals of said extremists cause the Third World War, and, with...

Ah, I was wondering why nothing seemed to be happening so far. How many have signed up so far?

But still at night, when darkness rules again,
Whispering shadows creeping through the lanes,
Evil creatures of the expelled magician,
Oh, it's a fight you'll never win...

I remember something was mentioned about having a car near the end of matriculation - alas, I don't have a car, so I can't really give any more details, but it's possible that the permits were being distributed there. [hr] But still at night, when darkness rules again, Whispering shadows creeping th...

Quoting Haunted from 16:55, 10th Jul 2007 Right, is there any way to play softball and not die? Yes, at least it was in the DOS version - check your statistics before selecting the Softball event, though, you'll need to be very healthy to survive this one. (Edited due to screwing up the tags positi...

Choosing the options "Suspicious" and "Stay where you are", followed by "Walk/Run away" should ensure your safety - doing anything even slightly wrong here seems to get me killed, if not everyone else who's tried this scene.

Quoting kaybee from 19:00, 7th Jul 2007 I got kidnapped and nearly murdered! Didn't notice this immediately, as it appeared between me starting to post and actually posting - how do you get kidnapped and nearly murdered? For me (from the DOS version's experience and one test run on the Web version)...

Ah, I recognise this - it's based on an old DOS program of the same name (well, pair of programs, to be perfectly accurate - Male and Female were separated) from back in the days when 4 colours was considered perfectly adequate for graphics. (Insert phrases such as "back in the day" and "when I were...

Quoting cain from 23:37, 22nd May 2007 Or a library that can only be found by somebody who already knows where it is. Yes, but then the poster's already achieved getting the book out, so it's probably safe to assume that the location's already known. Unless it moves about as well, of course, which ...

Well, I take Comp Sci, and have all my exams within two days of another over the course of under a week, so I really don't think I need to be worrying about that last point until they're over. [hr] But still at night, when darkness rules again, Whispering shadows creeping through the lanes, Evil cre...

Erm... Surely April, as opposed to March? Unless, of course, one of the requirements for entry is being able to travel through time. [hr] But still at night, when darkness rules again, Whispering shadows creeping through the lanes, Evil creatures of the expelled magician, Oh, it's a fight you'll nev...

Is this game still open, and if so, what factions are still available? I might join in if it's not started yet, if all my favourite factions haven't been nicked yet. [hr] But still at night, when darkness rules again, Whispering shadows creeping through the lanes, Evil creatures of the expelled magi...

Quoting Amorphous from 22:06, 1st Mar 2007 - Aspasia did not actually know the sports-equipment rule at the time of the attack (a non-player told her about it afterwards) I'd like to defend Aspasia on this one, but it all sounds so perfectly familiar... Signed, Codename Zakash [hr] But still at nig...

And, just to confirm that I accept my death... http://sydlexia.com/imagesandstuff/monsterparty/deadspider.png (All right, so it's debated whether it's supposed to be a spider or not, but it's in the manual for the game, which is good enough for this quote.)
