****EDIT******* Well things are looking up. Dell e-mailed me today saying that they were shipping my computer. And in about a week and a half I'll be moving into my new apartment at school, and life should get really...stable...for once  . That means more free time to do all sorts of things, including JA! (applause) /me sees the light***************** Hey everyone, I've got some rough news. Earlier today my house was struck by lightning. Despite my surge protector being between everything and my computer, the voltage was enough to destroy my computer. You can see burn marks throughout the powersupply moving across the motherboard and in every PCI card. Needless to say, I'm not going to be able to get in the game for awhile. I've contacted my computer's manufacturer about the warrenty and hopefully I can get this all resolved in a few weeks. I'll still be able to get to the website by an older computer (that somehow survived..its just not fair), but as for the game...well...I'm out of action for a bit. This means I need to cancel my participation in FaDed's last classes...my part in Kueller's tourney, and any other in-game obligations I have. Really bummed out about this, but I'll be back in action soon I hope. Until then, see ya on the site/IRC. -Tido  This post was edited by Tido on Jul 26 2004 04:17pm. |
