Title: Cheddars lame give away super surprise!
Post by: Cheddar on April 03, 2008, 09:45:16 PM
So I have a Ultima Online game key that may or may not work- figured I would offer it to the community at large.  Here is how we are gonna do things; if you are interested (like, may actually play interested) reply to this thread.  I am leaving it up to WUA to pick the person who gets the key.

Again, it may or may not work.  I got it when upgrading my account.  I will modify this message later, wanted to get it in before the weekend.


Edit.  WUA will pick someone on Weds.  Better hurry and get your name in while you still can!!!

I don't want the key but I was wondering exactly how large you have to be to get it.  People around here seem to be getting smaller and smaller.

On related note... I may have some herpes to give away - figured I would offer it to the community at large.

Actually, I was just thinking I wanted to give UO a go again. I'll take it off your hands if you'd like.

Give them a pitch, Cheddar.  They won't listen to it coming from me.  They've long since been desensitized.

I wish Sinij would play.  I'd guild his newbie character and then kill it over and over until he logged out.  Then I'd call him a pussy for not enjoying it.   :oh_i_see:

Where is Sinij, anyway?  Did he fall into the f13 hole?  I think it might be time to start an f13 dead pool.  I love dead pools.

He's three replies above you.

He might be a zombie.  Would being a zombie still count for winning the dead pool?

Oh, right, there he is. 

And we could have a dead pool and an undead pool, couldn't we?

This is a UO thread, so in here he'd be a ghost.

I am afraid I never truly go away, you always have to live with a possibility of an outbreak.

I want to know why the fuck UO is the ONLY mmo that charges an "Internet tax"

I mean, seriously, WTF. and it's not a small tax either. 6%

That's gotta drive a lot of subscribers away. I didn't even know there was such a thing until I tried to register.

I dunno, did Ched give you the code?  Because being the only one to express interest, I figure you totally won.   :awesome_for_real:

NCsoft charges tax too. I can't remember if Blizzard does for WoW. I'm sure there are others.

So, he did not. I went for the 14day free trial.

Sorry to say, I don't want the code. The whole "Kingdom Reborn" thing added a lot of suck to the game. They've improved the graphics substantially. They are somewhere around the quality of Baldurs gate now. But the improvement only serves to highlight how chunky the tile based system UO uses makes the game.

They should seriously just revert back to the 2D client and call it a day.

I play with the 2D client.  So does Cheddar.  /shrug

I thought you could only play the new content with the new client? Aren't you missing a bunch of stuff with the 2D client?

I wonder how many flavors of recolored lich do you get to fight?

Not accurate.  Read the Ultima forum for more info - I even posted a link to DL the 2D client.
