If the Glaive Fits...
Hmm, a pun. I like wordplay.

Unfortunately, I am too pissed off to enjoy its subtleties (which is also why I won't reply to Pyrophobic, DDG or Mimmi's PMs until I've stopped blowing steam out of my ears).

The title was something I thought of this afternoon while trying to ascertain whether my polearm would fit inside my diddy little Micra. It does, hence I'll be driving off to the tournament at Arundel Castle tomorrow at about 7:25am.
Fun. Fun. Fun.

The reason I am pissed off is because of Wizardry 8. Okay, it's stupid to get so het up over a game, especially one I shouldn't be playing so much anyway. Heh, I've spent the last few months or so waxing lyrical about it and reading walkthroughs very carefully to find out what I'm supposed to be doing next, but lo and behold, when I get to the point where I have to bring two hostile races into an alliance one turns hostile. For. No. Reason. At least, I thought it was For. No. Reason. But it turns out that it was my fault because I didn't bring him a quest item he wanted several game-weeks ago.

Problem: I don't have any saves that go back that far and even if I did I wouldn't want to have to play through so much more of the game.

Problem: I don't want to have to start again because I've come so far with these characters and I like them so much. If I redid them from scratch they wouldn't be the same. It sounds odd, but when this has been your main form of entertainment since Christmas you do tend to get attached to it.

*sigh* I guess I'll finish it as best I can now. It's not like the quest's an essential one anyway. It's just one I wanted to do.

I guess I've just been playing on it too much ^_^; Perhaps a break from it entirely would do me good.

Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf?
And then we come to Moderating. I've closed three threads this evening and due to my bad mood I must have been more brutal with them than usual because I ended up having to edit one post five times before I thought I wouldn't be coming down too hard on anyone. There's a lot to do in that forum; we do really need three Moderators at the very least.

I can't help but think I could be a little friendlier with the way I deal with things, though. Example: Someone double-posts...

Scenario 1: The Dagger Way

Dagger IX1: Careful with those double-posts, there. Just use the 'Edit' button next time ^_^

-Member goes off happy, having learnt from their mistake.

Scenario 2: The Solo Way

Solo: I AM THE LAW! *thwack*

-Member flies off into the distance and is never seen again.

Bleh, it's probably just because I've been doing it for so long that I just cut down on frivolities to be more efficient. If people just paid that much more attention to what was going on around them, though...
