And then all those rich people who manage to live a bit longer as a result, albeit not as richly as before they paid for their cures, will be bored to death.


    Why not just NOT make it lucrative?

    Light helps in Avadon so you can see the secret buttons (Example: Avadon dungeon. I was randomly tapping my Kindle until I found a button and realized, they look pretty much the same as the wall.
  3. Oh. In Italian, that's (besides the first word) friends, comedy, west to the end. So I figured I was wrong, considering even Google Translate didn't recognize that word as Italian.

  4. Man, do I not like Amazon.com. First off, my Kindle won't charge, so no playing Avadon or Avernum: EFTP. Now, the Android Market won't allow me to buy any more apps or play existing ones. I am thoroughly ticked at Amazon and it's Kindle Fire and am wondering if anyone has experienced the same problem.

    Excuse me if I'm wrong, but is this Italian? If it is, I can't read the first word. What is Plaudite?

    I REALLY can't type because I broke my wrist, so expect these often for 4-6 weeks

    2) No insults or negative comments about other members. If you are following rule #1, this should happen more or less automatically -- forum lore tends to be things that everyone can laugh at and/or be confused by, not things that put down others.

    3) No statements about anyone's real life identity. Those are not Facts.


    Problem?
