Well, at least they had the good sense to actually prepare for a fight. Way too many times the protagonists don’t bother picking up a good lead-pusher, even when they know a deadly fight’s incoming.
I know there were prior “freak out” moments with our characters… but they have such a cold persona about them now, methodical, for a bunch of geeks that play a game now being hunted by a killer. I’m not saying it can’t happen… but it is definitely very movie logic.
I’m excited to find out how they actually handle themselves.
I used to be an adventurer, but then I took a pun to the knee, so I retired and became a web comic commenter.
And I’m telling you, those guys are doing it wrong. Not a single broadsword! Not even a poisoned mushroom. They will never beat Evil Mario.
To quote one of my favorite training gurus: “Don’t stop not dying!”
I was not gonna flip him the bird.
I was gonna give him half of the peace sign.
That is perfect, I am /so/ using that one from now on.
Why only half? Give him the whole peace sign backwards.

Daniel’s agenda isn’t “Don’t Die”, its vengeance.
Shit goin’ down in Sepia Town. In the nice part.
Getting some Die Hard/Home Alone vibes here.
…Would that be an awesome mashup or what?
Die Alone… no wait, bad choice for a title…
I’m not so sure how well “Die Alone” would do at the box office, though.
And “Home Hard” sounds more like a B-movie spoof porn flick.
… with a horror twist, when Gramma discovers that the main character forgot to clear his internet history.
“What’s this Furry website that you visited so much? Does it have funny cat videos?”
“NO, GRAMMA!!!”
*click*
Frigg lights a match, squints forward, & grumbles: “… come see the elves, we’ll have some laughs …”
“… he’s a contractor, not a fanatic…”
Reminds me of the book “The Day of the Jackal”? Its protagonist says the same thing to the people who’re considering employing him.
Good book. I recommend it.
*sings* Shanna’s got a gun…
Everybody run!
Fuck him up, guys. Fuck him up something good! For Kaye!
Ghost-of-Kaya: Guys, you need to get the quest first, remember? No xp otherwise.
Not to mention you all have to be on the same stage of the group quest.
What is Xan making there?
He’s increasing the sensitivity of his mouse so he can win against JJ in a FPS shootout.
But what if JJ is running an aimbot?
Report it to the GMs, it’ll get sorted out.

I think they got over the “we might end up dying horribly” part and have decided on actually making a stand.
Well unless my following of time is off… it’s really only been a couple of days for these guys. Maybe a week?
A day since their buddy was “killed”?
It’s classic hero stuff to brave the threat coming from humble origins, I guess that’s what makes this so interesting.

That’s because they’re waiting for Xan to build their new secret weapon to beat him: “Browser”
Nah, what they need is Kirby.
“Kirby is a ravenous cannibal who thrives of the blood of mass murder.”
