Ah sorry dude, I was just waking up when I posted that this morning, so my brain wasn't quite on yet.

Anyway, AmericanHoser made the original connection between James Bond & TTOA. He wrote a few things about it when we were talking on MSN, very funny, I'll have to look and see if I have that convo saved. He also made a few TTOBond avatars... like Double O Darius, and Arc Hon.

Aha, nah i was being cocky when i wrote typed that, if you ever get tired of writing the book dont push yourself too much, otherwise you may completly lose interest(not that you'd ever do that)just keep it going.

writing a story is easy unless you have to do it for school or something, or you get bored...
ok... so it's not that easy.

good luck anyway! ^_^

Absorbing more lore and creativity i see. Well im stuck on Morrowind Elder scrolls III now, and its just plain great.
I know it's not easy to do somthing like writing a book, but just stick with it.
So what do you plan on continuing ttoa on? UT 2004 wouldn't be so bad....your call.

Not near planning on continuing the cinematic, maybe I'll come back to that a few years from that. Don't have time right now, I have to build my life before I build my dream. I have -
A . School, and eventually college which will take up 2x the time.
B. Reverie Entertainment
C. A life... well somewhat of one anyway lol.

So I'm going to just stick to writing the book for now. My mind is highly susceptable to change, so I may decide to continue the cinematic (for another game) sometime in the near future, but I'm not going to jump in and say "Hell yah, I'm going to make 12 parts of TTOA for another game", and then slack off and drop the idea after two parts like I did in the past.

^ Wow that was a pretty long sentence

Ah yeah anyway, I'm going to try to take things one step at a time. Right now my time is dedicated to school, Neverwinter Nights, and Reverie Entertainment.

I'll begin writing the book when I feel in the mood to do so, which may not be for a while now, but I don't see it too far off (Maybe a month or two, thats just an estimate, I hate giving dates for things that I can't promise to be done).

I'm pretty tired right now, so if I sound cranky, don't mean to be a pissball... lol.
I got a good stockade of candy last night from Trick or Treating, this will probably be my last year going. I'm a Junior in high school, I'll have money to buy my own bag of Twix, which is just about the only thing worth Trick or Treating for ^_^

I got my friends copy of NWN Gold, so I do have the expansions ^_^
I have Sharwyn as my henchman right now, and I'm on chapter two. I had Daelin Red Tiger at first, but then I decided I needed something else besides another fighter. She can pick locks and stuff, and kicks ass with a bow.
I haven't found it easy so far, though it can be easy if you use the Stone of Recall and teleport away from large battles, then heal, and teleport right back in. Also the fact that I'm too lazy to run back to a safe area to rest before battles when I'm low on health makes me reload a lot.

Anyway I'm off to play a bit of NWN before I knuckle down for a day of homework & school projects.

Haha yeah I was also thinking of doing that ^_^

$3500 is no small fee though. But I work for a game company, so hopefully DoF will be selling by then, and I'll be much richer ^_^

Man though, think about how freakin cool that would be to be dressed in Mjolnir armor. At my school we can bring our costumes for Halloween, so I could walk into school wearing it. All the guys would be like "Whoa... l33t l33t l33t," and the girls would be amused by my sexay shiny armor... or uh... maybe not. ^_^

The other problem would be my parents... "Ian you can't spend $3500 on some stupid thing! Thats ridiculous!"

Not if you get the unpainted one(white is factory color). that's like $1200
and it would still pwn anyone by so far it wouldnt matter, and i would stand a lesser chance of being hit by a car of bicycle october 31st at night. It would also be a good defense at LAN party's from air-borne controllers aimed at your head and more delicate areas for majorly pwning someone in a game of Halo 2.
Like some day when were all old hicks that have nothing to do but sit on our porches hitting eachother with canes ill be out fighting crime in my Mjolnir armor! or if the covenant come in our life-time( they will soon enough ,if not by then, for my kids to carry on the tradition ) and fight them in my Factory-plastic spartan armor!

*Walks into school with Mjolnir armor on and everybody's head turns, facing you with wide, awed eyes*

*Strikes a retarded looking pose*
*Helmet falls off*
*Hastily puts it back on*
I am... MASTER CHIEF!

There're a lot of Halo fans in my school.

The only problem with this is... I don't have $3500.

Doesn't matter if the helmet falls off, you never see Master Chief's face, so for all they know, you are him ^_^

Yeah I have er... I think $27 in cash right now, and a few dollar coins and shiet, so I'm quite miserably poor.
I'll have to wait till Christmas for Half-Life 2... and probably a good deal longer than that before I have the mulah to buy a new video card, 128 MB cards just don't cut it anymore.

Heh maybe I should try to make an Archon costume or a Tas... er... I mean the Dark Mage costume. That would be kinda sweet, walk into school as Archon, baseball mitt sized hands and a huge belt buckle included. ^_^

Heh, well bedtime calls, I gotta recharge my battery for school tommorow.
