Thanks for posting that! As always, Signe is on the ball :)

I should get back to nature, too.  You know, like going to a shop for groceries instead of the computer.  Maybe a condo in the woods that doesn't even have a health club or restaurant attached.  Buy a car with only two cup holders or something. -Signe

I'm surprised they didn't put FFXI on the 'previous games' list.

I liked the Achiever/Socializer/Explorer/Killer question.

I also wonder if people who were most excited about the "single player experience" go straight into the circular file...

Guild Wars - Pick two.

Seriously, though.

Games where I can't jump make me want to stab something. I don't know what it is, but unless I'm able to have that nervous spacebar twitch, I can't play it.

I don't know what it is, either.  Even if it's a game where jumping doesn't do anything important, I get nervous not being able to do it.  It's nice to know I'm no more broken than other people!

I am hindered by a lack of static IP (for Remote Desktop), and a desire to put forth any effort to actually remember to write it down.

So, home awaits!

I think it has less to do with being broken people (we are, I'm sure) and more of wanting to look like a complete asshole.

One of my many and varied desires in a game is to be as physically annoying as possible, and jumping is one way to achieve that goal.

You should be playing LotRO, then. Grab a lute and play such hits as 'Three Blind Mice', 'Chopsticks', and my favorite, 'Random Keypresses'. Maybe Frerajaka (hey, I'm not French) for an encore.

I was attempting to play Hootchie Cootchie Man, but the latency is a killer.

That whole system was destroyed for me when I saw that you could use a program someone wrote to convert MIDI files to keypresses. I would just bot myself in place playing 'War Pigs' on repeat, 24 hours a day.

Also, it involves playing 'WoW Lite in Middle Earth', which isn't exactly something I'm too keen with.

I disagree with the 'lite' part, but it is very similar to WoW in a lot of ways. Plenty of differences are apparent even to this newbler, though. If you're a huge WoW fan, nothing will change that, if you're invested in a WoW guild and are happy, chances are you'll stick to WoW.

But...linky to MIDI converter PLEASE! :) I'm thinking 'South of Heaven' for starters.

Eh, I enjoy the PvP aspect in WoW too much to swap over to 'monster play' or whatever.

As far as the MIDI converter, here's the original site:

http://community.livejournal.com/lotro_music/

It was shut down as a project because they don't want 'macroing' - of course. You can still get builds that work on the beta version, though.

Supposedly you'll be able to write songs ingame now, though, and share them as 'scripts'.

Someone will still figure out a way to import MIDI files, I guarantee it. ;p

I've started listing F13 as my guild on these things.  I figure it's as true as any guild I join then discard 6 months later.

Also, because, well, it's where you actually heard about it?
