My hat is pretty badass too ya know This is a more recent pic. I guess this is a good time to introduce myself. Call me Curufin, its the name of the first character that I ever played table-top with at the ripe old age of 10 or so. Lord_Spike has been telling me about this forum for some time now, and I finally decided to mozzy over and take a look. It's really cool to see that you guys are into the game so much, and especially that you are working on KoTBL. "Keep" was the first module that my friends and I ever got to play through, and even then Spike was trying to kill us at every turn! Coincidentally I was the first character to ever bite it in our campaign and became the one to do so with the most frequency. -Curufin out
I'm the one back right (not Asian). The lass in the blue sari is my gf. That sari make me cry. It cost a freaking fortune.
Playing a late night PnP game with Curufin, Zorn, and a pal from Germantown...he's the one on the laptop! Our first ever game with a video link to a faraway friend. Gives a whole new meaning to the term DnD Online. What's the module, you ask? You needn't. It's ToEE, of course.The evil campaign continues, with some very unusual occurrences! I'll tell you about them later...in the meantime, here's the pic:
"Alright Burne, tell me where Pishella is or we burn your damn tower down." "I keep telling you,there is no such person here!" "All right, you asked for it..."
That fan in the corner is keeping the Co8 server cool... when it goes down, its because someone tripped over the plug
What you said, Ted, brings back memories from several years ago when 1st-generation Pentium I servers were 100 MegaHertz server-class mid-tower PCs and, at that time, they were considered awesome even though they were kept in mid-to-hi 60s degree "semi-refridgerated" [laff] rooms.
Dude, don't knock the semi-refrigerated rooms! I remember when the entire downstairs northeast seg of Durham Hall at Iowa State University was nothing but, and only the SWEET computers were down there. I and a couple other staff pukes used to sneak down after hours and spend all night playing games. Duke Nukem 3D, Master of Orion II, XCom UFO Defense... ...OK, that dates me, doesn't it... ...of course, the disadvantage was the next morning my girlfriend would take my hand, glare, and say, "You were up all night playing games--I know because your fingers are COLD!" Oh well. At least I always won. :evilgrin: Somewhere in my wife's laptop she has a picture of me. Yes, "a" picture. I don't like posing. I'll see if I can find it and upload it later. --Blair "No, not impossible. Inevitable."
Reminds me of something a mate who works in TV said... this TV station sacked all its engineers, employed a few contractors and tried to run everything on computer, with IT dudes instead of engineers. So they built a room like that, but since it was a money-saving thing they scrimped on the air ducting stuff for the room. The servers stayed cool, but there was nothing to deal with the condensation. Pretty soon the mega-expensive servers were sitting in puddles of water. Not that I'm saying our TV guys here have ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA, but I got a lot of stories like that
I was wondering when those pics of Me and Curufin would hit the net. You fellas need to come and do some voices for the game! The fella on the computer playing with us....Is he shooting the bird?:yikes:
