Ephesos

*sigh* I'd be in, but I legitimately don't know when my work schedule will become less oppressive. So, yeah.

Hunh. As I sit at this desk, I can see the books from most of my assigned reading from high school. In a rough order because I don't feel like reconstructing the exact one: Fahrenheit 451 - Ray Bradbury The Call of the Wild - Jack London Night - Elie Wiesel To Kill a Mockingbird - Harper Lee Romeo and Juliet - Shakespeare The Scarlet Letter - Nathaniel Hawthorne (blech) Heart of Darkness - Joseph Conrad The Pearl - John Steinbeck A Separate Peace - John Knowles Lord of the Flies - William Golding A general mythology primer unimaginatively called Mythology - Edith Hamilton The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde - Robert Louis Stevenson Macbeth - Shakespeare Hamlet - Shakespeare Death of a Salesman - Arthur Miller To the Lighthouse - Virginia Woolf (bleeeeech) Midnight's Children - Salman Rushdie (yay!) The complete stories of Flannery 'O Connor The Stranger - Albert Camus The House of Bernarda Alba - Federico García Lorca Chronicle of a Death Foretold - Gabriel García Márquez Oedipus - Sophocles The Great Gatsby - F. Scott Fitzgerald Madame Bovary - Gustave Flaubert I have almost certainly forgotten things, as I can't believe I somehow managed to get away without a fourth Shakespeare play my senior year.

Also more than happy to help a newcomer, welcome to the boards! When you get it into a place where you need testers, drop a line. ephesossh(at)gmail(dot)com

I generally preferred a nice quiet spot in the library. Or if I felt like being around people but still being productive, said library's cafe. (wishes he still had things to study)

Unfortunately, the period of crunchtime at my office has extended past the 1st (our original project deadline) to the 15th (our new "soft" deadline), and I expect that it will continue on past that as well. So, I'm still working on my entry, just slowly. Very, very slowly.

Seconded!

Farewell and godspeed.

Brisk, technically sound, and a satisfying flash of story. And considering the limitations (working with Warrior's Grove is awful), it's pretty. Also an interesting approach to dialogue. It's not amazing, but it's not terrible, and it's over very quickly. I enjoyed it, but in the end, I have to call it [rating]Average[/rating].

I personally liked Bahss a lot, though it took a while to grow on me. Let's see... I want to pick some things other people didn't pick. -Emerald Mountain (first scenario I remember being really impressed by, back in ye olde days) -Magus of Cattalon (time travel better than I was able to do it) -Adrift (because I had to pick something of my own)

Hah. I forgot about Pinchy's reviews.

Whoah, what's all this then? New designer? Sweet! (runs off to download) EDIT: Nikki? Is that you?

Heh. I had to dig a bit for my review of this scenario, and then I remembered just how fun it was. After all, I was a tester on the original beta, which was... interesting. Anyway. The plot and the outdoors shared a commonality in that they were huge but confusingly empty when you took a good look at them. Also featured were overpowered traps that took ages to cycle through a single trigger, hordes of enemies where a few would've sufficed, confusing jaunts through different planes of existence, a handful of ridiculously overpowered items hidden away in an arbitrary maze, and giant purple dragons. It could've been great, but instead, it merits a [rating]Poor[/rating]

Confirm all of mine, including ones yet unreleased. Also, as a general reminder to all, Tyranicus and myself just updated all of the Review threads to include, well... everything. So if you haven't reviewed things that you've played, I wholeheartedly encourage you to review them. Also, if anyone wants to opt a scenario of theirs out of the listings, let one of us know.

My bad.

Yeeeah. I realized that recently too. Warrior's Grove is just so damn ugly... I'm placing so many items. I'm happy with this rules change.

My bad.

OH SNAP. Now I have to go and finish my everything.

Whee!

Generally I'll set aside 10-20 per NPC.

1. Describe your perfect sandwich. Roast chicken, dill havarti cheese, tomato, spinach, and champagne mustard. Awesomesauce. Literally. 2. What is your favorite filling or condiment? Spicy deli mustard is definitely up there. 3. What is your least favorite filling or condiment? Mayonnaise. Blech. 4. How often do you eat sandwiches? A couple of times per week, depending on how frequently the folks at the office feel like doing takeout. 5. Have you ever found something really horrible in a sandwich? Other than mayo where I didn't expect it, no. 6.If you could only eat one type of sandwich for the rest of your life, what would it be? See #1. 7. White or wheat? Wheat. 8. Jelly or jam? Jam. 9. Pickles or onions? Onions, no doubt. 10. Cheddar or Swiss? Cheddar. Moar flavor = better. 11. Grilled or toasted? Depends on the sandwich. Chicken grilled, anything with lots of sauce toasted. 12. Explain why sandwiches are better than wraps. Less pointless bread product to get through to reach the delectable filling that is the promised land! 13. Explain why wraps are better than sandwiches. More insulation to keep that delectable filling from escaping for the floor! 14. Is an open-face sandwich an actual sandwich? Why or why not? No, it is things on a piece of bread. Nothing is sandwiched between other things in an open-face sandwich. I imagine the Earl would be offended.

I hope nobody minds, but I'd like to mirror the logs and such over at my site.

As long as it's cool, I'm gonna mirror the logs over at my site like I have for the other campaigns.
