Wow - could it be?

August 28, 2007 at 1:47am

Just read that the GR server may be DOA. While that's a bummer, it's no a surprise in some ways. What had been an addiction for several years has now moved into the realm of a pleasant diversion, almost a distraction of sorts. No longer do I feel the need to sit and immerse into a fantasy kingdom of my own choosing, although there are some disappointments.

1) Never making it to one of the gatherings. Work and finances and the real world and all the responsibilities that go with it prevented it. Great disappointment number one.

2) Never maxing out at 40. Hell, never even making 20. That really sux - over 4 years I have been in some form of this realm, and max level was 18.

3) Losing contact with some really cool people. Max, GlorTor, Cari, The Flaming T'Zars (you know who you are... :) ), Candy, Ledtil and Shadowluck, and countless others.

We have discovered a new Luau / Gamers Retreat - a new version of the rush that comes from exploring and finding new things, without the virtual hazards and with some real life hazards. Sharps, Jr and I have started GeoCaching... big fun, and a great way to get out and see the world.

I know that no one will ever read this - the pedantic ramblings of an old man. That's OK - there is catharsis in the telling, even if none hear the tale.

Good fortune and fair skies to you all - perhaps there will be no more from the Sharps clan; but then perhaps we'll show up someplace when we're least expected.
