That's how I am with a certain other game. I barely ever play it, but I make a ton of content. Might have something to do with not having working 3D acceleration on my main computer. :augh:
It's spelled "definitely", not "definately". "Defiantly" is a different word entirely.

83. you are in a battle and you send one man to hold an entire villiage
84. you don't get into fights unless there is over a 60% probability you will win and at least 80% probability you will survive
85. in the middle of a fight you tell the other guy that he attacked you out of turn because you get 4 melee attacks per turn and he only gets 3
86. after a few blows struck in a fight you take a break until dusk
...apparenly we can't go with it or something.

After far too long an absence, I have returned.
According to the quiz 100% Silver Mage (85% Archmage, 75% Shyde, 67% Flameheart and Ancient Wose,58% Assassin, Troll Warrior and Berserker). And my top score is exactly how I see myself.
