Yorpy sent me the link, and yes, my name is Ben Cruz.

I'm not really returning, I'm just stopping by. There's a reason I left, and I feel no void in my life because of it.

It's nice to see everyone return, even for just a couple of posts. It brings back the memories from when I first joined.

Forge, eK, and Nickssoft. This is neat! :)

Joe, we got Keen:Galaxy modding working about a year after you left, and it's really really hard and time consuming. I gave up.

Good to see you all again, briefly, though!

If by "not much" you mean "not at all" you'd be right. But I thought I'd drop in for this impromptu reunion and say hi.

I like the new site banner -- animating between Keen and Mort is cool :)

Can someone please add some punctuation to the title? Every time I read it I keep wondering from whence the original member in question returned Cho'gall.

Hmm, also this forum doesn't seem to have recognised daylight savings time. *prods Andy*

You could just change your timezone under 'profile'. :p Also, I think automatic daylight savings time would be pretty tricky and unreliable. A couple of years ago, the US made it last another couple of weeks longer, which clearly does not affect other countries (much to our chagrin *tyrant emoticon*). I'm not even sure when it ends, probably sometime soon. And a couple of states (Alaska and Arizona?) don't use DST, IIRK. Plus there's the problem of the crazy southern hemisphere having summer in the winter time, so I'm guessing your DST starts about when ours ends.

Random thought: What are the southern hemisphere's views on Santa Claus? How does he manage in the summer climate with the sleigh, reindeer, etc? Also: Christmas in general. Do people have Christmas trees? Do any conifers even grow in Australia?!?

Anyway, to sum up the last paragraph: The northern hemisphere lives in a ridiculously norther-hemisphere-centric world, and I am a victim.

Heh. It wouldn't be much of a problem, as don't those Santa's reindeer fly? So the sleigh seldom if ever touches the ground. Probably he has a wagon (with wheels) for snowless places. :dopekeen

Yeah! Like Chitty-Chitty-Bang-Bang, the sled runner things or whatever they're called retract, and wagon wheels pop up.

Sick.
