CarrionCrow: Going to do my level best to try to somehow suppress or repress or whatever the image of you somehow being mistaken for one of King Kong's detached testicles and them trying to check you for tumors (and undoubtedly fail miserably) while saying it's good your head stopped hurting.

Stilton: The pain was quite literally out of this world. Probably a posture thing, or maybe I need to go to Lars Ahlberg & Son (my outfitter) and get my head remeasured for a new lid. Cold weather, blizzard conditions, wild beasts and random attacks from crazed barbarians - and now the kind of headaches that would make Odin wince. Its not easy being a warrior of the north, you know.
Would agree with it probably being posture-related. It's difficult to keep everything ergonomic for a normal person, let alone someone with a large chunk of metal encasing their skull.

Ragnarblackmane: I dunno about that last part, after all, dude had an eye ripped out just for wisdom. For a headache he'd probably just grunt it away.

As we are mere mortals however, I sympathize with your plight and suggest medication via a strong stout beer.
Don't tell me you fell for the whole eye for wisdom thing? That's just what he told the other gods. In reality, despite his wife warning him not to, he was running around with his pointy axe and he fell and gouged his eye out. "I did tell you that you would have someone's eye out with that thing" said his wife. He was so upset that the other gods would laugh at him, so to stop him crying his wife came up with the wisdom idea. :-)

Nevermind an eye for wisdom, didn't he hang on a tree (possibly impaled, I can't remember without looking it up) for seven days for magical power?

Odin was pretty bad ass.

Alcohol of any form is the best medicine, for any ailment.

Beer always works, but right now I don't have any. Isn't it always the way?

Yeah, this tin hat thing is getting to be a bit of a pain, particularly when the temperature drops below zero. Maybe I should wear something a bit lighter, like a trilby. Could a Viking get away with that, do you think?

Just to keep you guys in the loop, I've added my number to my forum title (according to gog, no outside calculations here).

EDIT: Which is 8 more than last night... o_0

Maybe the metal is transferring all that cold from the snow to your brain. Maybe time to change your avi back for a while. ;)
(Seriously though, I get ones like that and sympathize)

I think it starts in my neck and then works its way into my head and then on into the surrounding area, through the woods and maybe even as far as the coast. Good if you sing opera, though - its a real help hitting those (relatively tuneful) high notes ;-)

Only if it had horns. Or was made of fur. Or both.

One of the perks of being a Viking is that if you're violent enough, and carry a large enough sharp object? You pretty much get carte blanche to wear whatever kind of hat you want. =)

A fur trilby with horns.... Time to write that letter to Santa.

Also, a question for the group - what would you say are good entries for a "I've still got money after flash and bundles, so let's hit the 50 percent off sale" stack of games?

If the axe is large enough, they won't be focusing on your head, even if you've got a vertical fruit bowl attached to it.
