: How does that make him "fresh" in Archmage
: Diary ? Myrdred was, originally, a Good Avatara. He,
: along with Damas, was a close follower of Connacht.
: Connacht kind of led them both (especially Damas) to
: evilhooddom. The Watcher was already evil for a while,
: so being recruited by any Leveler, even a former enemy
: (Connacht-›Balor), was natural. Dec hated The Watcher
: the most, I suspect (Balor needing to not be an enemy
: with his subbordinate, however much Connacht hated
: him).
I'm not saying the Deciever isn't a good thousand and something, just that he's way too young to have been an ally of the Trow in their war against the Calliach.
: So what? Let's say I paint a Trow a human skin color.
: Except for the baldish thing (and the ugly-as-sin
: face), he's going to look like a human would for that
: size. The humanoid form is one of the most common.
: Hell, I didn't even know fir'Bolg were non-human until
: after I beat TFL (years back, of course; I'm
: ejamacated now!:-)
Touche.
: It's quite an interesting story, actually…
: Some time or another when playing TFL for the first time
: (I'm guessing when going through "Crow's
: Bridge"), I accidentally hit F6. Seeing as I had
: no experience with any real computer game before (and
: nothing like Myth), I didn't really figure out that I
: had lost any ability, seeing as I didn't even realize
: the existence of the menu bar. Welp, in addition to
: not knowing how the Function keys did very cool things
: (including the menu bar), I also didn't know that I
: could change the difficulty setting (or I had, and I
: was just really oblivious to the fact it was in my
: face…I don't know). "Sons of Myrgard" was
: really fun like this…I had no idea about the signal
: bottle, with no menu bar to tell me, so reinforcements
: weren't available. I was on Normal the entire game. I
: nearly gave up, until I figured out where to go (this
: is one reason I loved Myth TFL. I never had any clues
: of what to do in a level. I had to figure it all out
: for myself; no hints, no anything but an overhead map.
: It made it a lot more fun for me than m2).
: So, I beat the game. (I had NO IDEA that there was even a
: Myth II available to me a this time! I never went to
: any website concerning Myth; that never occured to
: me.) My friend had lent the game to me for my
: birthday, and I gave it back to him when I got my own
: copy. I didn't play it much then, and pretty much
: stopped with it. Some time later, I was bored and
: decided to try out the game again. This time through,
: I discovered all the things I missed, including F6
: equalling menu bar, how to get through "Sons of
: Myrgard" a LOT easier, how the fir'Bolg were
: another race, etcetera.
: After I had beaten the game a second time, I was looking
: at new things in the game, like preferences, what all
: the things on the main menu did…and I undoubtedly came
: upon Multiplayer. As some may have experienced, I
: noticed the weirdest things; how my Player Name was my
: REAL name! (For my own personal privacy's sake, it
: said John S. …No, that's too obvious; let's say J.
: Smith.) "WTH!" I thought. "How did the
: game get my name??" I figured it was because my
: computer is registered under my real name, and the
: game looked at that to imput the example name…though
: not after many cryings to mother and phone calls.
: I needed an account to get onto Multiplayer, I
: discovered. Going to bungie.net, I eventually figured
: it out, finding the damned little # on the jewel case
: (though, to be fair, my version of Myth then came from
: a "10 Tons of Fun," or something, game pack,
: the # hidden deep within the information packets.)
: Well, I ended up getting to m1 and have been an avid
: Myth Multiplayerer ever since.
: And so my life was ruined! Now I have the honor of
: quiveling and bickering on the smallest and most
: insignificant of issues with you fine people,
: involving a game, never to see the light of day
: again, locked away in this well-guarded, and truly
: insane, Asylum :-).
Hooray! Insanity for ever!
: Archer »–)›
: P.S.: If my last words were confusing, I actually love
: this whole thing a lot, and I do find it an honor to
: be talking about these interesting issues.
: Also, what does "IMHO" mean?? I haven't figured
: it out yet.
I've no idea either.
