Over at Backloggery.com, someone named "kmartnintendork" added me. I don't know them, but kmart + video games made me wonder if it was you.

Hey all, PS2 vs. The Grand List is UP! I put double time in to improve the formatting, so you'd better enjoy it twice as much. :mrgreen:

I beat NetHack the first time in my life the other day. As usual, my first wish was BDSM (blessed dragon scale mail. gray, specifically ;))

I think I'm just straight up done for today. I made a lot of progress and I think I'm in a good enough position to put together a 10-minute presentation for Monday (for which I'm not expected to have a finished project, which is due the following Monday).

Wolf Bird, I would offer you a cup of tea and a couple of gingerbread cookies right now if I could. I hope you're taking a much-needed break!

Now that it's been mentioned, I do like Lyla and I'm not sure why her name was changed to Alys for the English release.
