Kick It finished. We only got 40 minutes this time. Anything short of early Sunday is totally useless for me, since I won't have the time to play until next weekend. And at this rate, it looks like it'll be released some time in the very early morning on Tuesday instead of the somewhat-later...
I think I've been here for about 6 years, since I was about 16. Of course, I spend most of my time lurking so I don't actually know any of you guys. *shifty-eyes*

Edit: There are also rumors, caused by a new casting side on Showfax, that Dany might be recast as well. Perhaps someone a bit younger?
Step 1: Make program.
Step 2: Media whargarbl.
Step 3: ???
Step 4: Profit.

Practice makes perfect. Keep writing and you'll find yourself getting better and better at it, as with anything else.

If you're really interested in writing, I suggest taking an English class or two (or paying more attention in English, if you're still in school).
I didn't read far into that (use paragraphs, damn it), but it seems like there are a lot of fairly simple changes that could be made to improve it...
Oh, they've been around for a while. Every few years they do something particularly retarded, like this, as if to remind everyone that they're still around. I'd say the best thing to do would be to ignore them, but people like this are often in actual positions of enough power (like school board...
