The band always plays that when I enter a room....
Wow, lets see - I played UO a week or so after it released. I guess that was 1997 - It started a very long game addiction. I should have probably sought out rehab a few times.
Its like 17 years later, and I can still remember highlights from playing UO in that first year. I played w/ my brother at the time and we did well in pvp that I credit to the use of phone....
This is before skype and such things. We coordinated attacks well that others just didnt have the communication to do. I remember launching earth quake scrolls from inside the house. Logging out, letting him log in and dropping his EQ scrolls. Then going outside to loot 40+ bodies who had come to raid us on a regular basis.
The memories go on and on. I came back to UO after a long list of MMOs sometimes around 2006/7. Did some PvM and then got into pvp w/ a cool group at Yew Gate. I quit the game for what I thought was the last time. I figured letting my Fel tower fall full of stuff would give a couple hours of good pvp for the shard. Sadly in 2014 I've returned wishing I had at least kept my soulstones. So is life.
The depth of UO is unmatched on so many levels. I wish i had kept my account current since release. I really don't know why I didnt take a break and keep on paying.
The wifes a lazy pig, so you really don't want her measurements. When I'm not working or gaming I love to duck hunt. I've got a black lab that means the world to me. I once saw a photo tagged " he paid more for his duck dog then my engagement right" It's true - don't spend too much on fat chicks.
My scripting skills usually cap out by trying to "update" some outdated script. I can usually get them functioning but don't have the knowledge or dedication to write truly functional scripts.
I don't think I was on this sight back in 2007. Not sure if it was up then. I did have a source for some "advanced" scripts, but really can't remember where they came from.
I'm back, looking to focus on PVM for a while - acquire some wealth and hone the pvp skills.
I would like to share 2 of my best UO moments though from 1997/98
These "raiders" they often tried to catch my brother and I outside of Destard show up one morning. This is when u had a key to your house. We used to keep the key safe on our vendor. Well darned if they didnt kill me and get the key. We had LOTS of stuff in our house. All these blues had crammed inside shouting look at all the stuff, let me out - let me out I can't move etc. These chumps were in their glory. I didnt want to, but I had to telephone my brother to let him know what happened. Just as I was about to dial - Server going down in 5 minute msg comes up. Everything backed up - and it made my day knowing these guys got a good look at how rich we were :-)
2 friends came out of that deal - Righty Left and Lefty Righty - They gave in and went red. New PKs living near Destard 1998 Chesapeake
