Twi, you should start a thread just about your escapades in cuisine-land.

Heehee. A lot of it would just be me sharing recipes like my apricot chicken recipe:

"Okay, the idea of a savory fruity dish sounds good, and I have some dried apricots, so let's try that. So, I'll chop a few of them—um, maybe four? Five? Eh, didn't count. So I'll dice those, mince a clove of garlic into some light olive oil (a tablespoon? Ish?) heating in a pan, then cook that, add the apricots, cover it with white wine…no, a little more….okay, there! Now I'll add the spices. Some rosemary, some thyme, some salt and pepper….I'll just add them 'till it looks good and taste it to see….now some brown sugar and chicken broth….don't ask me how much I used because I don't know."

Yeah, it never started  If you can get a third person though, I can always start a new game.

Okay. I'm up for a game, but I'm at school so at times I won't be availible.

I just realized I've become a lurker. 

I'm totally caught up on every thread I follow, but I just don't have anything to say . . . 

Also, I made this and I already posted it on my art thread, but I'm super proud of it, so:

Spoiler

Yay for my second digital portrait ever! (First one I didn't even know how SAI worked, so it doesn't count)

First off, don't feel bad for lurking. It's a mighty fine thing to do. 

And second, that art is amazing! Great job!

I am very much more lurkerish than you.

I only really ever posted in Reckoners RPG, and now that that's been dunked in molasses...

Although, the reason I don't post in other threads is the same reason.

I lurk sometimes too. I also know someone who has an account but is a lurker.

...sort of? I mean, yeah. I'd say so. 

Except to make more sense it'd probably be "The same that happened in Oregon." Or something of that ilk.

Not quite. 'The same thing that happened in oregon' works better, or perhaps 'the same thing as what happened in oregon.'

Jackpot.

I wanted to preserve the name "what happened in oregon" and incorporate  it in the sentence. Now it works.

The same thing that happens when I get involved with anything: it dies. 

... That is a rather extreme reaction, appealing to my vanity  In all seriousness, the RPG has slowed down some lately,, considering how often people used to post there. Personally, I kind of suspect it to be a mix of other responsibilities creeping in again (like school), the Reckoners series currently being finished (leading to a minor down take in interest), and the volume of stuff already existing being somewhat intimidating to new players.

(The last one, at least, is a personal thing; I only post int he Dalles thread, simply because there is so much other stuff that I don't think I'd be able to keep up.)

[TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her]

Hmmm.

I think I might enter this. Just to see what happens.  

[Allomancy she/her]

That face you make when you say a pun.

At least I make this face. I say a lot of puns, so this face is regularly made by me.

Hey guys, if anyone's interested, I'll be hosting another game in 40 minutes. Password is 17Shard

[A Budgie she/her]

I'm up!
I should be on in 40 minutes time.

[StrikerEZ he/him]

I'm up, if anyone else is.

[Quiver he/him]

I just realised that we are 55 pages into this.

When does the weird thing happen? Do we need to clock up 100?

It's been weird. It exists on this site. It was weird from the start, my dude.

I thought with the new update to the website, threads can now go as long as we want. Wasn't the reason this one was created was someone had a dream about a random stuff thread that was named something weird? And then bleeder made this one?
