We did not travel as much as I do with some others of the Fortress but you were felt almost like an Acolyte sibling to me. Except you were the Acolyte -- haha. I hope this was a rewarding character and sorry you bailed out on age. Sometimes it is hard to play that many hours under a single char. Ive only done it twice.
I hope to see you in another form despite my often strangled schedule. Best of wishes!

I never had trouble typing 'Thwrerrorip'. And it's funny.
You seemed not too serious overall, never grim, and I liked it. I understand how difficult it is to keep that up for 300+ hours, so can't really blame you for deleting.
You had some quirks that added to the character without diminishing his 'niceness factor', so to say. Mine are much worse.
See you in the fields someday again.

We had limited interaction, but I generally had a positive impression of Thwrerrorip. That said, I'm not a fan of the way you went out. Going around picking fights with people while wearing nothing but a practice staff seems a little out of character for an Acolyte.

After Truhukk, I rolled a wanna be maran, and then we were showing the grandkids old movies and I watched harvey again, and I decided to see exactly HOW nice I could be. Elwood P. Dowd as a non-drinker and no pooka friend basically. So I deleted that guy and rolled a copy of him only nicey nice. I took everything I learned from talking with the acolytes as Truhukk and expanded it a little. I tried, I came close, I failed.
I'd like to do an acolyte again, it was new for me but I dig the concept. Whenever I played a maran, when they started to get old I always tended to act like this anyway, so maybe I've been playing them for years. Hahaha.
The newness though, about 75% of everything Chirp did was made up on the spot. Someone asked a question or said something that opened up a philosophical discussion and it was all Er.. Ummm.. Duh... *Make something up* Hrm that was well recieved, keep going or That didn't work out well, change direction! Which brings me to goodbyes.
Imms: Corr: What can I say that paragraph above was 100% our talks. I didn't have a clue, still don't really, but I got a little hint of where I would need to go if I ever make another follower of yours. My next one will do better. Fun talking to you though. I don't think I really get your version of 'clarity' though, and that's okay. I was already at a point where I couldn't 'grow' anymore as a character by the time we met and I'm sorry for that, I basically rp'd myself into a corner. Hehe. I knew it and I'm pretty sure you did too. I was overreaching myself because I figure that's the best way to learn. (at least when you aren't going to die IRL if you screw up.)
Padwei: I always think of the 'argument' way back in the day of a maran and an acolyte slowly starving to death next to the rot ent and neither of us would suicide because of beliefs, and at the last you called altruism on me. Grrrr... Always a pleasure though You've come a long way, go you!
Nnaeshuk: As always nice work with the pats on the back and little things that end up meaning a great deal to one character or another. Seriously keep it up!!!
Sollin: Well you should probably be in the fort part, but what can I say... It at least makes sense now: All the times I kept trying to shove you under the leadership bus and you adamantly turned everything back on me. Hehe. Still... A lot of fun times there man. I know you tried to get me back on track and give me something to focus on to keep the character going when you saw I was out of steam, but really it was just too late, it WAS the perfect thing so don't think you should have done something different. Had I had anything left for the character your little quest for me could not have been better suited to revive a failing character. Remember that, and keep it in mind for future 'faders'
Twist: Meat shield indeed, Harumpf! Hehehehe. Always a pleasure, but I love your morts more. You really make people kick up thier game a notch.
Anyone else, I either didn't interact much or don't remember it. My bad.
Let's see: There are too many and for right now I'll keep it general instead of individuals.
Enemies: Other than ONE time I never intended to kill anyone. Not once. The one time was Ath helped me out and when I asked how I could repay him he insisted on the blood of a dark walker, I tried to talk my way around it, I really did. So sorry necromancer I don't remember the name of but I was fairly sure was newbish You were a guy I knew I could run across quickly, and get my debt cleared. Anyone else who died to me it was pretty much accidental or I was helping someone else out and they asked that I trip or entwine or whatever needed doing. I might go looking for a fight, but that was the player being bored and I was ready to flee if it looked like I was going to actually land a kill, once in a GREAT while I'd screw this up.
General population: I tried to keep good relations with anyone who was not directly an enemy. (Those who were direct enemies I tried to keep some open line of communication anyway. ) I thought I was pretty good about it.
Friends: I had a great time! There were some issues I have about the current crop of Maran, but that seemed to have gotten worked out somewhere down the line it just got darker and darker and I was like WTF?!?! I haven't been in fort in a LONG time so I thought I was just missing something and it had gotten to where the maran were a hairsbreath from villagers on the violence outlook. So I tried to keep my mouth shut but really. Some of those conversations, Had I been more comfortable with what I've missed and more comfortable with being an acolyte I'd have been verbally in people's faces nagging them like an ex-wife looking for a check. I kept that smile plastered on my face and tried to hint at other directions, but that was about all I felt I could do. So many of the players seemed so SURE they should be like that, that I let it go, thinking *I* was the one missing something. Hehehe. Other than that bit I have to say, there are many times I wanted to jump in to certain things and "go to town" so-to-speak. And I'd be thinking no no I should be against this, or I should express X, and begrudgingly go along.
I REAAAAAALLLY wanted to go on that hell trip, and finish off tiamat though. I had already pushed past what Chirp would do when I went into the first circle doing a lame role thingy about trying to succor the lightwalking spirits home. Yes he did try, but yes it was also just an excuse. There was just no way I could justify going where you guys were going without tossing away everything that was Thwer ya know? Oddly enough, the people who irked me the most about going too far as maran were the ones I had the most fun hanging out with (on the brigade side of things anyway.)
I think I ran across a crop of people (friends and enemies alike) who have the fun stick firmly in mind while they are playing. Avoiding sucking the fun out of other people's enjoyment even though thier character was out to destroy them or whatever. Kudos to everyone on that! Even though I count this character as one of my failures this was the most fun I've had as a 'failure' at this game. No one was there to rub it in, or grief you just to be an ass, or anything like that. I was proud of being a part of this community, though really you should take more things when you kill a fella, I could get used to this and get all pissy when someone finally full loots me. Hehehe. A handful of things is good. Enough to say 'it costs to die, don't do it unless you need to' and not so much that it makes you sad irl. Let us keep our newbie breadz plz.
I think had things out in the world been a little different, I'd have been a little different and enjoyed myself the way I usually do and run the guy into con death.
KK Enough BS from me. If I get a chance I'll do individual thingys later or I'll just pop in and answer anyone who wants to hear what I have to say about them.

Hey man!
I got your note the other day and tried to respond but I guess it was already too late. I enjoyed spending time with you, I was hoping to get in contact with you too, if it's possible, got a few questions and random things I wanted to ask you about!
Anyhow, good luck with everything and I hope you come back soon to get amongst it all. Thanks for all the fun...
Sollin
P.S For the record, I didn't actually mind the name.

Hehehe Will do, I was just so pissed at the wife nagging at me, and insisting i do something stupid and wasteful RIGHT now, that it came through as the harpy. I know they aren't in CF anymore, but it was a pretty close idea of how she was suddenly acting, she has some hormone stuff now so maybe... maybe it'll ease up some.

Very well done, Man. There's no way I could play a character with Thwrerrorip's personality for so long - you were always so cheerful and pleasant and just a good all around Acolyte. Even though you could obviously hold your own in a PK, it came across that it wasn't your first choice to approach a situation, as well (most of the time ).
The only annoying part of the character for me was the DAMNED NAME! I could never, ever spell your name right - it's almost as bad as Flaaaaaaaaaaayin's. Which was so annoying when trying to buff you!
Anyway, thanks for the fun times and good luck with your next.

Not sure I believe that, unless ... ??
Our times didn't always fully overlap, but I sure knew fun stuff was about to happen when they did.
I think we all sort of agreed that you would not, really, enjoy being Prophet so I guess it's all for the best ... Think you would have done a fine job anyway. You'd have to slow things down though, you're just so jitterish, even for an Arial
That harpy thing was funny, gave me the mental picture of one sitting on the snow ledge, gazing down, waiting to snatch you away. I hope she didn't give you too much of a hard time, hehe.
See you with the next, I'll miss Chirp (easier than the real one ).

Hehe Yeah I was Sooooooo not up for any sort of leader thingy. I mean it was nice to be considered and if it hadn't been for RL stuff that I knew was coming at me just then, sure I'd have loved it (Though I'd have acted pretty close to the same in that conversation just less "Nooooo. Anyone but me!") Hehe
As for the harpy thing, wellllll, I don't really know what prompted her sudden need for stopping me from whatever I was doing (not just cf stuff) for piddly things, I was really thinking it was a vengeance thing over a slight I don't understand, like squeezing the toothpaste tube in the middle or something. I dunno really, but that combined with RL coming at me in full force just made it harder and harder and in the end playing Chirp became more work and less fun. I had also hit a wall, RP-wise, there was nowhere else I could really go. The last hundred hours basically was a stagnant pool of icky mess that few saw but me, since it was from my perspective. (Though if the harpy was willing to play I'd push for her to be scion.) It was like she was sending texts to people or something, I'd go to the bathroom, No one on where, no reason to think anyone was near that was in pk range and there would be a scion finishing me off when I got back. So in the time it took to take a wiz, a guildguard down and me done for. Or she'd ask for help with some little thing, a few moments away from the comp, and bam same thing. after about the 8th time I started making jokes about it, and you know how long THAT went on.
As for the kinda fun, yeah kinda, sorry. It got old for me early on I kept dragging it out because much like my 3 deaths in a day time to log out rule. When the character gets old you hold out for another hundred hours, if you get no inspiration, delete. (I have rarely failed to bring life back into a character with that rule) And I honestly did that twice with Chirp. When I got the acolyte and seeker thing I was already done, but I "counted" it as a reset for the 100 hour timer, and then pushed a little farther, but at LEAST 200 hours of this was played with "I'm already done, just delete already" in mind.
I loved the PEOPLE, and I'm sure it was frustraton at home that made me where I couldn't stand it anymore. I wanted to go on a killing spree and randomly attack people and be mean to let off some steam but no way was chirp gonna do that. (At the end I DID go on a death spree though. Just for fun, and it was. I know I'm retarded that way.)
Thuorn though shoulda been cardinal. It was kinda sick the way we worked together though. If we had been blood thirsty, ohhhh my! Chirp just didn't want to kill anyone. hehe Well back to the grind. *wave*

Family should always come first, especially compared to a stupid game (no matter how amazingly fun and rewarding it is ), so I guess you're taking the sensible response.

Well I AM happy you 'dragged' it along as long as you did. Thuorn considered you his best friend, despite the silly name (hehe).
> Thuorn though shoulda been cardinal. It was kinda sick the way we worked together though. If we had been blood thirsty, ohhhh my!
Yeah, let's save that for our next incarnations, Thera, hide your wifes, kids and the number zero.
It was a pleasure.
