Whaaa? You don't think this is the BEST GAME YOU'VE EVER PLAYED?!? Surely that can't be what you mean, that would be outright blasphemy. You wouldn't even want to dedicate a huge block of time for such a clearly awesome game? Just goes to show what I've been saying about people and shortened attention span these days. In about 20 years, the only things that'll sell will be Quake XVI clones. Bah!

I very much hope to be happily dead by the time things get that bad.

Best game I've ever played... maybe, that would depend on what kind of a mood I'm in though.

As to 20hour (or longer) time blocks... well those for me simply don't exist anymore, and its nothing to do with my attention span, more to do with the other things in life that are more important (blasphemy! ) to me than any computer game ever will be. Hey I used to easilly give up weekends for nonstop D&D or board gaming (is my age showing? ) but those days are past, fondly remembered, and maybe relived later on, but for right now... yeah, I don't want them back

Nope. It's Friday 1600, and that's not until tomorrow. Why? Did you want to sign up?

No, it's not. I'm absolutely certain I'm older than you are. It's just that I realized early on the annoyance and aggravation of being permanently hogtied to somebody else, and have elected to pursue my own path. I find it quite liberating. After all, they say a man doesn't know what true happiness is until he's married....and then it's too late!

Remember: You're only young once, but you're never too old to be immature.

Yeah.. it sounds like fun. 16:00 in gmt+5, right?

I would like pangea.

No problemmo. Pangaea's open. Just sign in and upload. Do remember to password. This is a multiplayer network game, after all.

Remember: This is a Marathon. We play more or less nonstop, except for a brief break because Condors wanted to sacrifice a few goats to his wife so she doesn't smite him.
