Besides saying "I'm back." I have to say that I'm truly surprised.

I looked at the stats for the forum we had almost 4000 post last month.

Way to go people!


Sometimes writing with geeks is like eating Jello with a chainsaw. Interesting but painful.

Looking at the member list, there's quite a lot of high post count users that have been here for just a few months, above two posters and myself included. I guess you've got a good inflow of new readers lately...

O.C. Dee obsessed, Aranis? Me, I like to put my own 2 cents (similar Russian saying - пять копеек, 5 kopecks) in discussion.

<Edit> On a side note, Lycanthos in Boston Brawl 2 used really warped incantations in Russian. Are they supposed to sound in English like this?

1-Father Wolf,the child of winter, the slayer of gods, by the blood of my blood, granted be the power to destroy my enemies!

2-The Devil's Eye, spread your withering look on all the unworthy, and erase those, who bring me the pain of the world!

Well, the first one seems to be a Fenrir reference, which is interesting because of the Norse mythology...

The second one might be from Irish legend, but I'm not sure. The 'withering gaze' might be a reference to Balor.

Welcome back. You were missed. Hope next time you travel it is for a more pleasent reason.


I am not paranoid homonyms are out to get me. Homophones, Heteronyms, Polysemes, Capitonyms and words with similar spelling it is all a vast conspiracy.
