Ah, memories. I grew up on 2nd edition. Never played when I was old enough to really do it right though... 2nd graders don't make the best DM's  I still have a couple of my old dungeons from back then in a drawer somewhere

Advantage to wife being a CPA - she does the taxes Disadvantage to wife being a CPA - she pays things like state taxes on online purchases (which as noted everyone is theoretically supposed to do, but no one does)
I see no reason not to impose taxes though, as long as it's at enough value to be worth the pain it'll cause smaller online retailers if the threshold is too low

Whew, remembered you're in Canada, right? Was worried I'd missed the start but I think it starts in June in the States...

Just watched the first two episodes on netflix and thought they were great. Really excited to watch the rest, and even more excited I'm starting a show that has actually been renewed.

@Azhag2 We finally got The Wanderers guild up!!! Thanks to all involved for their patience.
Please post your @acctname here if you can't find someone to invite you. Seems like shard you started on doesn't matter (as people have mentioned). Teggy joined us without incident even though he rolled on a different shard.
Presently these people can invite:
@rittch68 @1Cortilian1 @Phalcan554
I've only unlocked the first tier of Guild Bank (it takes crystals) but if it looks like we need more, I'm sure we can work something out.

Yeah, I like that they give you the average play time. Very helpful. I played Tilt's mission last night. No complaints, it was pretty well done. Only problem I had was the outdoor area seemed laggy for some reason. Not sure if this is due to server load. Unfortunately all the text was putting me to sleep, I shouldn't have started it at 1 AM when the queues finally let me in. I knew going in that it was text heavy but I wanted the foundry bonus and the quest length said 20 mins although I think it took me longer than that.
The lag was due to server issues with the amount of players. It has nothing to do with my quest. Also, never take the average time for granted. A lot of people don't read even a single word of the quest dialogues and do nothing but run towards the end as fast as they can. Expect to spend more time than what the estimate says. By the way, don't play the sequel (The Lanaar Legacy) unless you've got some time to spare. The current average time is about 45 minutes, making it one of the longer Foundry missions out there as far as I can tell.

Enjoyed yours so far Tilt. Ran into one bug where the Golrug or whomever knocked me over a fence and I had to do /killme to get back. Only annoyed by your design where one side would be blocked so I'd have to walk back around, but enjoying the story.

While they're both available separately, the combo Taco Bell/KFC by my parents used to have a combo meal of tacos and chicken strips.
Miss the A&W store in general (corn dog nuggets and root beer float... mmmm)
Miss being able to order classic chalupas at Taco Bell

They were short at least, and I managed to mostly miss them on the dvr. Show is good enough for me to give a run... but I'm a sucker for scifi...
