You mean something like this?

Just finished Week 4 Day Three! Are my arms supposed to feel like they're falling off? The max was 40 but I went ahead and did 45.

I voted for Exile:Escape From the Pit, Exile II:Crystal Souls and Avernum 6. I voted for the first two Exile's because they are the bread and butter of the company. I voted for A6 because it marks the end of the storyline created nearly 2 decades ago. I still like the original Exile...and it seems I'm the only one because so far I'm the only one who's voted for it!

I did only 33 push-ups. When I was in Naval bootcamp I was one of only 4 people in my division of 73 to do more than 100 push-ups in 2 min by doing 106 and I was beaten by two others. I haven't pushed myself to do that since. I've been out of the Navy for over 6 years and have barely done any push-ups since I got out.

They are great games to play even with an outdated engine. I liked them then and still play them from time to time.

I joined the forums when I was 20, I turned 21 a month later. I'm 31 now.

As for the slowness of loading, I didn't notice anything last night.

Beat you by over a month, with more lurking I might add.
Over-achiever!

I killed Drath. It took me about 20 min but the Robe of the Magi was worth it!

When I was refering to why the north-eastern and south-eastern areas were blocked I was talking in reference to how it was in Exile and Avernum.
I've already bought the game (money came sooner than I was expecting) and a hint book to go with it.
I've noticed some major renovations to the storyline so to speak. Most notably Thantria and Freehold. Other changes are as follows:
1. Areas under the cities and some forts.
2. Formello Mayor's necklace is no longer unique.
3. Various other minor quests.
4. Micah said that he was King for 30 years but a book in Patrick's Tower says that he's been King for 40!
I'm sure that there's more, but I've only just entered the Great Cave last night and haven't yet played today.
This doesn't strike me as a remake per say. It has been retooled to the point of becoming a separate game completly. Obviously that's not the case because the NPC's and plot remains there.
One thing's for sure is that Encyclopedia Ermariana is gonna be flooded with rewrites and additions!

Seven hours!?! That's how long it took me to beat the demo! Why was the northern and southern areas blocked off? We should've at least been allowed to enter the northern area. Other than that I love this game!

Throwing Quickfire into the fortress of the person who created it in the first place... doesn't seem like it would do too much damage as she could probably disable it!

Sorry about the slow response. I'll only be online maybe once or twice a week since I don't have internet at my house.
Now to respond to a few posts.

As for posting in the Geneforge forum...I'll leave that to the professionals.

You were gone? I just assumed you didn't have anything to say.
There's always something to say...although Solberg doesn't always say what's RIGHT!

Originally Posted By: Trenton the Drake LordSolberg, why have you not responded? We have been saying these nice, warm things, and where are you?Long absences are not unheard of for me. Thanks everyone who acknowledged my absences and said those "nice, warm things". Where was I? At home mostly, remodeling and playing Skyrim!

I know that A4 gets a lot of flak from a lot of people but I actually liked it. Sure it did have flaws but it was worth it. Brand new storyline with improved interface. The biggest flaw of all that I really hated was obviously the distance between towns. You went from towns being many miles away to being right next to each other.

Country and classic rock. Sorry not too specific about singers or groups, just like to listen to the radio every now and then.

Level Peak? That stinks. You able to get to level 99 in Exile! Why suddenly stop at 40?

When y'all put it that way, I guess I won't mention the other games and just buy A:EFtP at full price when it comes out for Windows.

Take a hint man! I don't want to leave right now. Give me a day or two to relax and then we'll head out.

Compliment-"Your not as dumb as I thought you were." Several times by people when they hear my southern drawl and believe that I'm just some hick only to realize I know more than they do.
Insult- "Buck-toothed beaver." I have bucked teeth...enough said. So what if my teeth aren't perfect, this is the way God made me and if you have a problem with that then that is your problem not mine.
