I Anyway, I did A Level Geography and Computer Studies and dropped out before my exams - A Level Geography was still interesting but the Computer Studies course was utterly boring, IMHO. Oh, some advice, don't drop out of college or Uni, I regret it now although I am doing the job I wanted to do back then, it took me longer to get the job than it otherwise would! :/ I certainly won't be dropping out unless i have to Which would have to be dire. I am pleased i did not take computer studies, from waht you said it seems boaring. In fact the two A level classes on computer studys at my 6th form all did terrible. Only three people did not need to resit. The teacher was new and was in tears. Was certainly a bad day. Though my 6th form college has a 100% pass rate a full A level, with 90% of students going to uni. of course 10% will be doing other stuff like going into college or work.

D***. You guys are too nice. Being away from the forum a whole night and everyone misses an obvious comeback line. And now Hexer/Lee is seeing reason and everyone is talking about something else, and it's too late for the comeback. *troll goes back into cave*

Yeah Henning, it definitely pays off to go to bed at the same time as your kid every once in a while. Have missed it too. But can't say I regret it though. Attention, attention, oh how I grave attention. ;D

Yes, you are right, Marc. And maybe we should just ignore him as would be most fitting. It's not like he's fun, even. But everyone else have been so nice and replied to his ramblings, so he keeps coming back.
I did find the "I know he's a multi" - "I now have proof he's not a multi" (with the sub-insanity "the proof is easily faked") - "I don't believe the proof unless he does what I want" amusing and almost mindblowing. And all within 16 minutes. How much caffeine and sleepdeprevation do you need to make those kinds of statements in such a short while?
Just a quick warning though, the troll hasn't gone to sleep yet. And he has the keys to my fleet.
[ anyone remember the story about how few years the old greek fleets lasted, because of the treeboring worms living in the sea at that time? I think my fleet needs some practise Real Soon Now (tm) ]

I hope that I can clear this up. For the record, my name is Jean-Yves Rouffiac. I am the developer of the Midnight/MU on-line game (up to version 1.1.10 - current development is now done as a team effort). I have known both Natmus and Arminius on-line for several years. Indeed, Natmus and I go back to the very early days of beta-testing Midnight/MU. In fact, these very IK forums were once used to host the M/MU beta forums. I can vouch that neither player is the mirror image of the other, either in looks, nationality, gameplay, etc. It's probably hard to discern this in a game such as IK, but I can assure you that playing against them in M/MU, you would know straight away that they are not the same person. Furthermore, reading their posts in the M/MU forums would immediately dispel any lingering suspicions. I actually joined up as one of the early [Morkin] alliance members. I used to play there under the moniker of "Xuratoth" (one of the dragons in M/MU). So please believe me when I say that I speak from experience with regards to these people, whom, incidentally, are very decent and generous individuals, and friends. As to Leeds - I studied there in the late 1980's. I had a total blast. One of the best moves I ever made. Found my topic (Industrial Economics) as boring as hell, but let's just say that the campus life was... fun Hope this covers all bases.

Not been on in a while, but hi all again Now that the IK new blog has shut down I thought it would be fun to start a new one so if anyone is intrested please post. I am also workin on a IK style game and were still open to suggestions is anyone has any. We (as in the IW dev team) been planning for 6 months now - mainly because we could not get out hands on a host with MySQL 4.1.x but thats all solved now as our network has a dedicated server, virtually dedicated and numerous share hosting packages so were on track. There is a lot of 'techy' people here and I was wondering if anyone knows about the installs on mandriva 06 as I cannot get my modem driver to work Tis' a busy and stressfull month again, with my next A level exam being this Tuesday coming. At the same time I am having to beef up the websites, as we have had yet another bad month with only 300k unique visits across the month (we never recovered scince our last host dissapeared (two years ago, but lost us thousands of hits ) I have quit all the text based mmorpg games I participate in now; except Inselkampf, and thats only due to social ties, including new aquantances here. Once again sorry for the horrible typing. Mainly due to this wierd as hell compact keyboard, but also due the the fact I refuse to look at the keyboard anymore ) Pratice makes perfect NEW BLOG>> lee.newgecko.com/MY DEVIANT ART>> hexevil.deviantart.com/SOOOOOOOOOOOO anyway, how is everyone doing?
