What's this? Caught up in two days?

:P But seriously, I believe in my heart of hearts that I'm caught up now. If YOU are still waiting on something for me, though, it's because I forgot that I'm not caught up on you! Shoot me a reminder, because I probably don't have it on my radar!

I'm taking a short break from the server for a bit.

Real life wearing at me and I don't havn't felt up to doing much on the server the last few days, so I'll take a few days off and hopefully get myself sorted out.

I will still be about on the forums and on discord, though. You're not getting rid of me that easy :P

My computer is, for the moment at least, out of commission. (Stuck in an infinite restart loop following an apparently failed Windows update).

Until I get it fixed or replaced, I'll be slower to respond and won't have ready access to the server.

I'll still try to keep on top of PMs and so on, but typing on my phone is not always easy. :P

I have a new computer! And I was even able to salvage my old hard drive (thanks to Endelyon's help at knowing way more about computers than I do).

I have tried to stay largely on top of things, but I'm sure more than a few items have stalled while I've been relegated to my phone alone the past two weeks. Will try to catch up over the next week or so.

Gone from the server, it could be three weeks, three months, three years... who knows.

But there are some 'unofficial rules' of the server I could write down...

1) The winner of PvP is always whoever is willing to waste more gold in UMD.

2) The lack of players in the underdark is only result of the underdark players themselves.

3) People always come back.

Going to be out of town for a week, in Florida to see my son graduate from College !! I am so nervous I've not flown in an air plane in over 10 years! The additional pain this will cause me will not be good but I promised him I wouldn't miss it for the world, even if I had to crawl there to see him. :D

I will have my old old lap top but I don't know if it's good enough to get in game on, maybe just the forums. :)

Gratz to your son and hope the flight doesn't cause you too much (additional) undue comfort. If you don't already have them, get some compression socks. On flights over ~3 hours make sure you get up a few times and move around as well. Keep the blood flowing so it doesn't pool in your feet and you should be fine!

Safe travels Lisa!

Glad to hear it, west to east is a bit faster than east to west so glad the flights didn't do too much damage!
