Apologies for Your Possible Death by Kobold Drake

To Gil (I think, we only played together briefly), who may or may not have died by my hand:

I apologize for convincing you to venture further into the depths of the kobold ruins, only to disappear mere moments after we engaged a scaled & toothy beast. I can only cry folly on my part for neglecting to notice that my girlfriend was streaming HD movies and bogging down my network connection. I only hope the Shield pots I gave you were enough to get your through, what I assume was a tough battle. I think I saw, well of course the Drake, but also a Bladeling & two Imps closing in on you before I disincorporated. I attempted to return post-haste, but unfortunately I failed miserably at trying to convince girlfriend that returning to rescue a scythe-wielding, blue-skinned fellow adventurer was more important than enjoying Sister Act 2 in HD. She's a heartless wench and doesn't care if I look like a D%@k for luring someone to an untimely death. If you find me again in your travels, possibly we can find some way for me to make amends.

Again, you have my heartfelt apology.

Blessings of Avoreen be upon you. Um, RIP (?)...

There is only one way to make amends, dear Naglethorpe. You must follow him. Follow him wherever he may go.

Back in the Habit is in HD now?

*Disappears for 107 minutes. The server lags hard.*

:lol: It was nice of you to post this for your abandoned companion, Tanstaafl. Hopefully he got out of there in one piece.

Surely this is right up there for our prestigious "Post of the Year" award. We do have one of those, right?

The abandoned or the abondoners? Sounds like a good guild name.
Whats the rite of passage for guild entry? Getting dumped into a high level no retreat dungeon 30mins into server time.


I loved this post. Almost read like a Dear John letter mixup with a Eulogy. Brilliant piece of literature.
