Me and my colleagues would really really really really really really REALLY like to know when these will be ready. Every evening, after typing in the web adress I close my eyes, touch wood and prey that they will be done. Your genius exceeds our combined idiocy.

I will sometimes say what I'm working on, but I've learned never to make predictions about when it will be done. Sorry, but it only leads to heartbreak, despair, even suicide.

Zomp, do you really have stories about someone committing suicide because they couldn't bear waiting for your stuff? If so... I don't know what to say.

Many, many stories. Young, hopeful lives that will never be lived-- to say nothing of those still alive, but sadly confined to isolation wards-- all because I made premature promises about completion dates. Never again, my friends.

Wow, hilarious stuff Zomp. If only it were a joke. In about three minutes the nurses will find me out of my bed, in the ward. Then they will inject me with some powerful chemi... ::Nurse hauls me away::

I remember when Jackie Chan announced he was getting married at least two women attempted to commit suicide, one succeeding. Well, I don't remember it--it was before I was born, but I remember reading it several times in I Am Jackie Chan.
So I guess what I'm trying to say is that the key is to be a Chinese opera dude. Which of course explains Mark's popularity.

Oh no Dudicon! You've figured out Zomp's secret identity as a Chinese opera dude! He'll go after you and remove your brain from your spinal cord with his ultra-secret Pangitsu-Ngoda Crouching Demon-Dragon Upper Flying ?ber-Attack!

as long as you pronounce it as [yb@], not as[u:br\=], I won't have to send the flying monkeys with ninja action after you. Continue with [u:br\=], and I shall get angry, and I shall unleash the Kamehameha wave with extra godzilla action upon thyne (by now) cowering form.

It's a small price to pay, dude.
Vlaran: you can delete your own posts, click "delete". It's just to the right of "edit".

Since it's a textual medium, go ahead and assume that I pronounce it in whatever way won't get me attacked by flying monkeys with ninja action!

I'm amazed that there's actually someone under 12 who's read that book. Sometimes you seem very mature for your 10 years.

I think Drydic_guy's referring to an energy attack from DBZ...

I'm 1 of 'those' people, and proud of it. I am undefeated champion of Tolkenian studies and do not know anyone else who has heard of Verduria.
