    Common misconception. Tinfoil is an excellent conductor. it would improve mind control rays :naughty:

    He does not want people to perceive him the way he is but the way he is perceived by other people.

    Close! You just got it switched. He wants to be perceived for who he really is, and not the way that he is perceived now.

    @Arvia The wordplay works a lot better in song form, rather than straight text.

    I knew this was gonna trip people up, but its a wordplay I'm very fond of. It's a lot easier to parse in context with the rest of the song.

    A few more observations after a few days playing.

    1) The good path seems more interesting than the evil one... I will try again when I finish the EA with my evil drow follower of the Spider Queen.

    2) Why is everyone throwing acid or fire on me? I certainly didn't expect to be hit by acid thrown by a skeleton...

    3) The bugs are not that bad considering it's EA... I particularly like the Journal notifications that do not say what is being updated. Well just an excuse for me to check the journal anyway.

    Still have fun although I have to dance through fire and acid. :)

    I don't fear death so much as I fear its prologues: loneliness, decrepitude, pain, debilitation, depression, senility. After a few years of those, I imagine death presents like a holiday at the beach.

    Is this a joke? All my quotes are real just because you don't know the source which you could find by simply googling them doesn't make them not real.

    "Instead of laughing or smiling at questions like 'Where do we come from?', 'Why do we exist?', we should ponder instead the remarkable fact that the replies 'From nothing. For nothing' really are answers, thereby realizing that these really were questions - and excellent ones at that. There is no longer a mystery, not because there is no longer a problem, but because there is no longer a reason.” -Quentin Meillassoux

    Maybe so, but when you don't attribute the quote to someone, it comes across as a personal musing which is not a quote.
