hey we caught up finally today - thanks for all the help & advice dude -
much appreciated! I'm in GMT+10(+11 with DS now I think), so we might only
see each other weekends after my holidays this coming week, but not to
worry. I also have a weekly game with drybones whenever I can on w/es
(8am-10/11am or so) on Sat/Sun my time (1pm Fri/Sat LA time).
Really getting back into ATITD for some reason this time round. Seems like
they've taken just enough grind & chore out of the game to make it as
compelling as possible, while still challenging (& frustrating at times!

.
Well I signed up yesterday for a month & just missed out on my Chrissie
pressie, but hey, such is life. Will look at migrating to Shabbat AB asap,
especially if you can get me into that guild you're in, so I don't have to
solo the entire damn game lol! I don't think I could do it in a year anyway,
given the depth & detail in this game. It's definitely a 'hidden'
masterpiece, in so much as it will remain hidden from most of the mmo
rabble, which is mostly a good thing imo. Sure, they could use a few thou
more ppl (especially for my timezone he he), but it always seems to settle
in at a few grand subs each Telling - my only beef with that is I wish Egypt
were actually smaller & more accessible to newbs + they *really* need more
in-game guidance & help/manual pages of some sort. Other than that, this mmo
is the truest form of an online sandbox & social simulator combined you'll
ever see, & even though I normally don't like that kind of thing, this game
seems to have sucked me in for some reason.
Hope to see you on at some stage soon Alex & start my 'big' move north
