Turns out he's attended quite a few LAN parties and he's even mad enough to play online at the beach

- he'll do nicely...

** takes a drink from his
Duff ** He has heard of Baldur's Gate, but hasn't played it yet. Not an RPG-er in general, but he did buy Morrowind recently...

Well, E-Man, sounds like we might have found another vict...
-ahem-
potential SYMbiont -ahem- ...

.
Is he here "to stay" or just for training ?

LOL

. My supervisor isn't sure on that subject

- he's here for a few months at least, but what happens afterwards, isn't certain yet... ** SLURRs more

Hint: Get rid of the supervisor

He's a tough one. He survived several attempts at electrocution

** takes the
pipe from Beldin and tokes on it a few times, before handing it back ** BTW, how's the diet going, mate

?

Not so bad....I've already lost my sense of humor

....
but honestly - I don't expect any results before end of next week.... I try to find a way to change my eating habits in the
long run.... Any "Crash-Diet" would just result in getting my weight back as soon as I stopped....

....
re - "electrocution" - find a nice girl in the office, make her wear high-heels and miniskirts and wait for some
sexual harassement to happen (or
make it happen

)....tape it and you're rid of him...

. No worries
(copyright@Beldin) re. the diet - seems like a sensible approach
ROFL re. harassment suit

Where do you get those wonderful ideas? ** SLURRs some more

An endless source of inspiritation!

- naturally, I'll finish that list, àfter I try the miniskirt idea first

** takes another drink from his

Ooh yeah

hey!!! hey!!!! I'm here. Let this be evidence that I checked in to work before 8am for the first time in months. Of course, I'm going to need to hang out here for half an hour to wake up!

Graciously accepts the morning offerings from Eery paying homage to the diety of the eternal buzz. **healthy swigs taken**
And, there was much rejoicing.
@Beldin, that "The End" link was priceless. very funny stuff.

- here, here! ** toasts with his can of
Duff, accompanied by the squeeks of hamsters and drunken cries of rangers everywhere rejoicing ** I agree; your comment on that link was pretty good too, Ned

**lifts up Eery's hat to see if he's bumped his head recently**
All this talk of hamsters and rangers rejoicing makes me nervous. The second Minsc said that the first time I played BG2, I cut him down where he stood, looted his body, and told the party to walk away.

Quite a character, that Minsc. Only took him with me on my first run through SoA (and paired him up with Lilarcor

). I prefer my 'custom' party. Working on putting Jay and Silent Bob in too

the first time I went through the game was with a custom party. i thought the npc's were weak in bg1 with respect to depth so i ditched 'em in bg2. what a mistake, that added so much to the npc's and i didn't realize it. thus, i consider my first 'true' time through the game was with npc's.
plus my custom party was a bunch of asskickers. ranger, ftr/cl, monk, druid, bard, and th/mage. It was ugly. The game provides enough scrolls to the point where it is ok to not have a mage casting at a real high level. From there on out, I preferred to play with parties of four.

I think a 4-member party is the best set-up. Up till now, my custom party consisted of a dual-classed F/M, a Berserker and a dual-classed T/C (with room for NPC's for side-quests) ** finishes his can of
Duff ** At high level, they became ridiculously overpowered
