Glad to hear, it's been awhile since I've spammed

.

Just finished voting, I gave you one, you can see why...

Ravager · Post by **Ravager** » Tue Jan 31, 2006 4:58 am

Welll, it's been a while since we've both been around at the same time. But I have a free day today, so I can stick around.

Yeah, I saw that. Thanks.

I still have to sort out my vote...

I'll probably be around for half an hour or so, so spamming is on the agenda for me.

My biggest shock was getting votes, and I really didn't see a signature one coming

.

Half an hour, eh? This requires QuickSpamming then....

Oh, it's quite good. I may even vote for it.

Yeah, well I try to go to sleep early, but I normally stay up later

.

:speech: Surely there's better ones.

Ravager · Post by **Ravager** » Tue Jan 31, 2006 5:10 am

Yeah, it's an easy thing to do. I usually try to go to bed at least 6 hours before I have to get up again...sometimes it even works.

Maybe. But thenm, it's been pointed out to me I'm lazy. What makes you think I want to trawl around SYM looking for better sigs?

Besides, be grateful for every vote you get. *nods*

I voted for Rookierookie's one myself... Sorry DJ... No vote for you Mwahahaah

dj_venom · Post by **dj_venom** » Tue Jan 31, 2006 5:15 am

I try to make it 8 hours, though lately I've been getting 9, which I'm quite happy with

.

That's what I'm scared about, if I win, I have to make an acceptance post, and that usually involves making a lame joke, which is something I don't want to do.

@Lestat, that's okay, I've told you all of the consequences, and Lestat, no vote for you

.

P.S. I like the first quote in your sig, but I've already posted Hill.

Cripes. That's a good excuse for invalidating yourself from the awards process...

@Lestat, and you voted for my Bunn-ay?

dj_venom · Post by **dj_venom** » Tue Jan 31, 2006 5:18 am

I know, I'll do one of those 'live' feeds of me accepting it. Then, I can simply wave, and as the lame joke part of the speech arrives, pretend I'm losing transmission, and avoid it all together.

Perfect.

Ravager · Post by **Ravager** » Tue Jan 31, 2006 5:21 am

Hehe. Good plan. And for an Internet-based spin on that, your connection could just 'accidentally' breakdown at exactly the wrong moment...

dj_venom · Post by **dj_venom** » Tue Jan 31, 2006 5:22 am

It will break down after the award has been uploaded to my inbox.

Will you be putting votes in this morning, or are you working on them for awhile?

Ravager · Post by **Ravager** » Tue Jan 31, 2006 5:24 am

Well, if you're not around for long, I thought that I should work on my votes after you leave, otherwise you'll just get fed up of waiting for me to finish that...and I'd have nothing to do once you're gone.

dj_venom · Post by **dj_venom** » Tue Jan 31, 2006 5:25 am

In that case, I'll ask you a question now...

What am I supposed to do with the map, in the RPG thread. Do I say I want to walk somewhere, say I'm going a certain direction, or what? At the moment, I'm clueless.

Ravager · Post by **Ravager** » Tue Jan 31, 2006 5:28 am

Yeah, I should have been clearer about that.
That map is an overview, you can explore certain directions if you want, you may find something hidden (just don't say you want to explore the whole area in one post - that would kind of defeat the point) and there are also stairs in the two marked corners. You could choose to go down those...

dj_venom · Post by **dj_venom** » Tue Jan 31, 2006 5:31 am

Two things:
1) Where are we at the moment?
2) Can I simply say, 'I look around, walk around the map...' and hope you fill in the rest, or would you like me to say certain places in each post?

Ravager · Post by **Ravager** » Tue Jan 31, 2006 5:37 am

Well, you left the main centre room (which isn't circular thanks to software limitations

) through the door marked N for North. You crossed the bridge and now you're on the other side in front of some stairs that spiral downwards.
I'd prefer you to say certain places/directions if you want to explore that map before going downstairs. You don't have to explore that map though.

dj_venom · Post by **dj_venom** » Tue Jan 31, 2006 5:39 am

Just say it's magic Rav, it makes it more exciting

.

So I'll basically say I keep walking North, towards those stairs (which I have no idea are there

).

Ravager · Post by **Ravager** » Tue Jan 31, 2006 5:44 am

Hehe. 'The room magically transformed itself in front of your very eyes and soon as you opened the North door'. How's that?

As for the stairs, it is hard to see from the top-down view of the map. That's why I provided big labels for the doors off of the centre room and the stairs. Hard to miss those...or so I thought...

They're at the top and bottom corners of the map picture...

You could go back to the centre room and take another door from there or use the corridors near the top of the stairs.

dj_venom · Post by **dj_venom** » Tue Jan 31, 2006 5:47 am

Well, I'm a mage, I'd rather agree and be confused, then disagree and be proven wrong, and ultimately, stupid

.

No, I meant, my character can't see all that, so I'm cheating like this.

I'll post the action soon.
