Away for a Fortnight
 
Hey all,

I thought I should inform you of my absence, as I will be away for two weeks. Week one, starting 6:30 PM on the 8th of January, I will officially be attending the Army Cadet Seniors Course. Basically, I will spend one week in Hell, learning how to discipline, teach, and everything else I've already learnt a hundred times before.

I will extract myself and my sister from this camp a day early, so that we can attend a friend's wedding. After the said wedding and reception party, we will be carted off home where we will pack numerous articles of clothing so that we may be swiftly driven to our holiday destination a long number of hours away. I will spend the next week away, having fun, and burning my already very-badly-sunburnt body on this holiday.

I'll be making a backup of the forums tomorrow so that I do not have to worry about it burning down. I'll send an email off to Abe Babe to inform her of my absence, as I don't really want the new users who need to be validated, be made to wait two weeks - especially so close to the release of Stranger's Wrath.

Oddworld Universe will not be re-opened today, as I had originally planned. I don't see the point in opening it and having a two week gap in news updates / content updates. Instead, I'll release it a few days before Stranger's Wrath's release in the United States. Great way to loose all publicity.

Don't have too much fun without me,

Alcar...

Well you have good time Alcar.

I was going to say "let's trash this place!" :p But since Abebabe will be here...


*hides drinks*

Yeah, have a good holiday. Hopefuly, when you return the forums won't have burnt down

Rich 01-07-2005 10:44 AM

See you soon! You'll be too tired to update OW Universe after all that!

Hobo 01-07-2005 10:45 AM

Go to hell you old bastard.

No, seriously *cliched remark about burning, taking over, hoboising the forums*

Wil 01-07-2005 02:19 PM

Goodbye, Alcar. Two weeks for the new Oddworld Universe? Hell, The Oddworld Encyclopædia will be fully functioning before then.

The Shadowman 01-07-2005 02:28 PM

Ready the catapults and trebuckets and prepare for the seige on the Oddworld forums!

odd chick 01-07-2005 02:44 PM

Have a good break, Alcar! :) I don't know which is worse, having an already sun-burnt body being burned again or being so pale and pasty like I am! :D Anyway, hopefully the forums won't be too badly 'trashed' while you're gone! What the heck am I saying?!! We're doomed! :p

Gretin 01-07-2005 05:47 PM

A whole two weeks? Well, I'm one who's going to miss seeing you and your posts on here for a while, even though I'm new here. Maybe it's partly because from what you've said I think you're a fellow Catholic. Anyway, I hope you have fun and don't get too sun-burnt! :)

Stop copying me!
Okay, I never said about hoboising, but still!
:p

And dammit Alcar, I can't help but think you're running away from me. I'M SORRY I MADE YOU WORK YOUR LAST NIGHT AT HOME TRYING TO FIX ODDCHAT!
Nah, not really. I'm more sorry that you didn't get mine working, and now you're gone for two weeks. :p

Fuzzle Guy 01-08-2005 01:45 AM

A little late but goodbye and have a fun time. The Forums can get boring without you!

Wil 01-09-2005 09:05 AM

Ha, the very suggestion that Peter could ever be the life and soul of any party or gathering amuses me.

The Shadowman 01-09-2005 09:50 AM

HA, the forums, defences are down. Archers at the Ready! Pikemen at full arms! To the left quick march! TO BATTLE!!!

Godlesswanderer 01-10-2005 11:13 AM

Battle?! Eeeek!

*hides in high grass*

Fuzzle Guy 01-10-2005 11:18 AM

*Runs away from the Forums. Godlesswonderer shoots me*

The Shadowman 01-10-2005 11:45 AM

Finally the last defences are down, Storm the forums! Take no prisoners! Victory and honor charge on!!

Wil 01-18-2005 11:32 AM

Pffft. There's plenty of defence still here. Anyone defecting gets a bitchslap from yours truely. :)

The Shadowman 01-18-2005 11:54 AM

So you are lead to beleave, but the mystic ones have seen "flaws" we just have to keep digging that tunnel (just mess'n around).

Wil 01-21-2005 01:06 AM

Oh thank goodness for that.

I was getting worried.

P.S. Hi Alcar! :D

Alcar 01-21-2005 03:26 AM

Alcar is back, and with 100% more sunburn than the original Alcar! It's so good, it hurts to move! :p

Alcar...

Oddish 01-21-2005 09:51 AM

Welcome back Alcar! We missed you.

Rich 01-21-2005 10:55 AM

Hooray you're back!
Now you can return to your usual position of being my biatch.

GO AWA...

Hi. Welcome back.

Godlesswanderer 01-21-2005 12:32 PM

Hey Alcar, welcome back :).

Gretin 01-21-2005 12:47 PM

Wow, it's been two weeks already? Seems more like 5 days... holidays pass too quickly!;)
Anyway, welcome back, Alcar. Nobody nuked the forums while you were away, we just had crazy medieval people trying to invade us.:D

odd chick 01-21-2005 01:03 PM

Welcome back, Alcar!! :) I hope you had fun while you were away! :)

Oh! Was that who they were? I just gave them cookies and they left. :D

Gretin 01-22-2005 03:07 PM

Is that all they wanted? You could have told the rest of us! :D
Maybe Alcar should close this thread before everyone starts talking garbage! ;)

Wil 01-23-2005 01:41 PM

The Sun, the Daily Mirror, the Mail of Sunday.

Oops, sorry, I was talking garbage.
