I am so very sorry to hear that Hyper, really I am. I can't begin to know how you must feel, I can relate a little, having nearly lost my mother recently, but it must be so hard for you. It has been hard for me, but I can't imagine how it must be for you. I wish I could give you a big hug, but sadly I can't over the internet.

Sorry about the giveaway and gifting stuff, I only meant it as a bit of fun, not something to annoy you. I won't keep mentioning gifts etc. from now on. And as for the game that shan't be mentioned: I won't ever mention it again, from this day forward you are free from me trying to gift it to you. But if you should change your mind about entering for a Star Wars game, then you are always welcome to.

I know there is very little I can do, but if I can ever be of any help, please let me know. And if we can help distract you, then just say how and we will try our best.

As for the forfeit, it will have to be the biggest ever internet hug. *BIGGEST EVER INTERNET HUG!*
*tickles* Surrender now!

ddickinson: Star Wars/Lucas Arts Giveaway!
I have had some good news today from the hospital about my mother, who is finally going to be on a regular ward and who is recovering quite nicely, due to some new medication. The medication won't fix things, and she still has a long way to go yet, but they will help and things are finally starting to improve. Some other things have also started to get better for me as well, which has really cheered me up...
I barely new to this thread and didn't follow what's going on with your mother, Just want to say best wishes for her and you as well.


I think had enough internet for today, need to get sleep and it's already 3.50AM in the moorning. have a good day/noon/night everyone :)
avatar
ddickinson: Good day, Hyper!

I hope things are going well for you?

And I know I said this was optional, but I'm afraid I must insist you take part. Either that, or accept a forfeit...
avatar
HypersomniacLive: You got a chuckle out of me, a much needed one, actually; tomorrow is the 2yrs anniversary of my mum's passing, and as you can hopefully understand I'm having a difficult day, so cheers for the comic relief. I'm here trying to distract myself, but I'm not sure it's working.

As for the GA - I'm too tired to fight you, but not in the mood to enter either; so, let's say that if that forfeit is not you_know_what, I'll accept it.
Sorry to hear that Hyper, my empathy, and sympathy. :( Stick around and I'll try to act like an idiot and cheer you up. ;)
I got it! I'll send you a copy of my favorite song: "Wake me up before you go girl" that should work. :-)
I actually have Phantasmagoria 2 wallpaper on my desktop...
If that doesn't make someone laugh (and possibly point a finger at my silly ass while doing so), I don't know what will.

(Okay, it could be Fahrenheit wallpaper, but I'm not anywhere near intoxicated enough to do such a thing right now.)
Thanks for all the kind words, everyone, much appreciated. :-)

Whoa, slow down! I was not annoyed, quite the contrary,I think it's very lovely and thoughtful of you, but I might start being with all this apologising. The best way to help distract me is to be yourselves, and act like you always do - friendly, engaging, funny, raging (that's for you Crow).

And if that's the forfeit, I wonder what you'd make me accept when it's not - besides that.

This is my man! I had almost forgotten about your favourite WHAM song. XD

Don't know about sending me a copy, how about you sing instead? ;-P

-laughs- Hell, I'm actually in a better game-related mood.

Course, that might just mean I'm losing my mind for good this time, but I actually loaded up Phantasmagoria, Phantasmagoria 2, Two Worlds and Fahrenheit, and thought to myself, "Well, at least none of those are the crap I've been playing".

I do appreciate the inclusion for when I inevitably start foaming at the mouth again, though. ;)

Not so good at that one but I do a fine job with Credence's "There a Bathroom on the Right". :-)

Go on, sing it for Hyper. You can have those sexy nurses as your backup dancers. :-)

It's a path thing.

There's a corrupted simplicity to taking the low road at all times, being selfish, shitty, inconsiderate and generally an unpleasant if not downright loathsome person to be around.

Some people don't have the energy, desire or inclination to be anything better.

ddickinson: To be honest, I don't know. I have not really played many Lucas Arts games, and there are none that I can think of that I definitely want. I seem to have been one of the few people to have missed out on the Lucas Arts magic growing up. :-)
avatar
AgentBirdnest: Same here. I never played any of the old adventure games. I only played a couple of Star Wars games in the late 90's (Rogue Squadron and Shadows of the Empire.)
You both are really missing something... Really !!! Old Lucas Arts games are... how could I say. Best adventure games I ever played (until I play Blackwell series less than a month ago...) :-)


Hi again, by the way :-p

gunsynd: Pillers of Eternity here,it's one Iv'e been watching.

EndreWhiteMane: At it's current price that's all I'll do, watch.
I'm getting it on day 1 release. I was part of the kickstarter crowd. :D

avatar
CarrionCrow: Yeah, nothing terribly exciting happening here either. It's cold, it's generally quiet, and I'm trying to load my library so I can make the current flags go away in between adding more stuff to the wishlist and thinking that GOG's putting out a bunch of stuff that I'll probably end up buying myself as multiple birthday gifts soon. =)
It is always good to spoil yourself with gifts once in a while. ;)

avatar
CarrionCrow: Hate, misery, little bits of possible depravity.
Could be worse. We could be talking about reality television. -shudders-

Also, how's the Double Dragon?
avatar
tinyE: Oh I suck at it! Honestly I played it for about 30 minutes and then switched over to Torchlight 2; I have an embermage named Ororo Munroe that I'm kicking some ass with.
Nice X-Men reference there. ;) Storm is one of my favourite characters.
avatar
HypersomniacLive: And to everyone else I asked (or neglected to ask, sorry) about their Steam Wishlist - please don't ignore my request, I can certainly use some distraction, as it's the middle of the night here and I won't hear anything before tomorrow late afternoon/ early evening.
So, again let me take a peek in your wishlists, and if I find anything I can do, it will be a great source of joy for me.
Well alright, guess i can share mine. I got <span class="bold">Nothing</span> on my Steam wishlist. =)

Best of wishes to you and your friend though. Hope s/he will get the treatment in time. *offers a big digital hug*
