Away for a Fortnight

***Alcar*** · #1 01-07-2005, 04:06 AM

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!"

But since Abebabe will be here...

*hides drinks*

Smell · #3 01-07-2005, 10:11 AM

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

Rich · #4 01-07-2005, 10:44 AM

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

Hobo · #5 01-07-2005, 10:45 AM

Go to hell you old bastard.

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

***Wil*** · #6 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 · #7 01-07-2005, 02:28 PM

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

odd chick · #8 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!

Anyway, hopefully the forums won't be too badly 'trashed' while you're gone! What the heck am I saying?!! We're doomed!

Gretin · #9 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!

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.

Fuzzle Guy · #11 01-08-2005, 01:45 AM

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

***Wil*** · #12 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 · #13 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 · #14 01-10-2005, 11:13 AM

Battle?! Eeeek!

*hides in high grass*

Fuzzle Guy · #15 01-10-2005, 11:18 AM

*Runs away from the Forums. Godlesswonderer shoots me*

The Shadowman · #16 01-10-2005, 11:45 AM

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

***Wil*** · #17 01-18-2005, 11:32 AM

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

The Shadowman · #18 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*** · #19 01-21-2005, 01:06 AM

Oh thank goodness for that.

I was getting worried.

P.S. Hi Alcar!

***Alcar*** · #20 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!

Alcar...

Oddish · #21 01-21-2005, 09:51 AM

Welcome back Alcar! We missed you.

Rich · #22 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 · #24 01-21-2005, 12:32 PM

Hey Alcar, welcome back

.

Gretin · #25 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.

odd chick · #26 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.

Gretin · #28 01-22-2005, 03:07 PM

Is that all they wanted? You could have told the rest of us!

Maybe Alcar should close this thread before everyone starts talking garbage!

***Wil*** · #29 01-23-2005, 01:41 PM

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

Oops, sorry, I was talking garbage.
