For me it's just real life and a very busy job.
This war I was actually recovering from arm surgery.  

I regret to say I still need to read this war.

Hi,
I used to participate in the wars but haven't recently for many reasons. Probably 
the biggest reason for me is that with the passing of Susan Ellen Field, my heart 
just isn't in it anymore. She used to write me into some infamous fights and I 
could always rely on her to kidnap me from the Vaqs to play with the Unnamed 
Faction for much of the war.

I miss Susan's wonderfully silly stories, I miss chatting with her on Friday 
nights, and I just miss the fun that surrounded her in this online group. Nothing 
has ever been the same for me since she's been gone.

I don't mean to be a downer, but that is the real reason my heart isn't into it 
any more.

Which totally explains the delay.  No one feels like doing anything when 
they're ill, do they?  I hope you feel better soon.

The wars always seem to fall during tax season... Or other times with huge ot at 
work.  Been a long time since I could play.

Subject: FK info sorely missing from the internet

Forwarded for Otto Matic.


1) Does anyone have a link they can share to any video scene of FK dubbed
in French?
2) Does anyone know if FK was also dubbed in Quebec's own French?

I have searched "*Le Justicier des ténèbres", *the title under which it was
broadcast in France as of May 2001 on "13e rue" channel but can only find a
similar titled movie with Val Kilmer. Other "streaming" links are blocked
by my security as risky. Apparently, no DVD has ever been released in
France. Like South America, Quebec does not buy the European language
dubbings but creates their own. I would be interested in having any info on
a potential Quebecois dubbing and in watching a scene of either French
version. (I am unable to access any Google Quebec, unsure that exists...)

In advance, my thanks to anyone who can help!
O.

I've been on the list since about 1996, though most of you probably never
heard of me because I'm such a lurker, but I participated in one war for
certain, and I think possibly two others. My main reason for not
participating, and mostly lurking, is a heavy work schedule where I spend
all day dealing with emails and/or drafting documents, so when I get home I
just don't like to spend a lot of time on the computer. When I check my
email, it's usually late and interesting threads have already died off or
someone else already said what I would have, so I got in the habit of not
participating much, except for an occasional random post, like this one.
Plus, my writing style isn't too adaptive to the speed and chaos of the wars
-- for me, participating would be more like work than fun.

For me, this time, I just didn't feel like doing much of anything, in RL.
This wasn't illness, unless it was a bad case of  snowbound blahs. It was
more of my old friend, depression. (Runs in my family. I have been on
antidepressants at my request for years.)  So by the time I'd done the
minimum to which I was committed in RL, I just didn't seem to have the
energy for the war.

I'm sorry and hope next time I'll be feeling my normal self and can be more
interactive.
