((Hope you aren't in too much agony Wwolin!))


CZA looks around as everyone seems to be stuck in place for the moment.

".....Soooooo....Did anyone watch the Chiefs get beaten on Sunday? That's makes 'em 9-1. The winning streak's over. Yeah."

[GreatWyrmGold]

((I feel lucky. I discovered a month or two ago that my wisdom teeth won't be bothering me. My condolences to Wwolin and everyone else who has to deal with that.))

Also, You guys have successfully gotten me addicted to worm. Congratulations, you bastards.

((Bwa ha ha. Where are you?))

like four days, and already to arc 7. Did I mention those four days included two musical performances in which I was the lead, a lot of procrastinated homework, and two actual school days. Also, considering that due to my Asperger's I read about half as fast as normal people do, I'd say I have a problem.

[GreatWyrmGold]

((I had no idea Asberger's lead to slower reading speed...I wonder how fast I would read without it. Anyways...have you noticed the trend of things getting worse? It's about to accelerate.))

[Dermonster]

That's not due to aspergers. That's due to you being a slow reader.

Source: I have aspergers and am extremely fast reader.

[GreatWyrmGold]

((Same here.))

[+!!scientist!!+]

((I'll just say that Asperger's affects everyone differently, and that my school psychologist thinks that they're linked because my reading is ridiculously slow compared to my other traits. Putting it bluntly, I can write essays faster than I can read them.))

((As for worm, the stuff is getting bad, but the main stuff I'm noticing are the incredibly creative fight scenes, and a girl foolish enough to believe she can easily betray her first friends in years. I'll be honest, I'm only at 6.8, you know, the one right after we found out that

((I keep hearing about Worm having these awesome fight scenes. I might have to check it out purely on that fact and get over my damn insectoidphobia.))

[GreatWyrmGold]

((Entomophobia. And would it help to know that Skitter largely fights with spiders and their silk? ...Although the silk is often carried by flying insects...))

[Xantalos]

((Uh.
Worm won't help anyone get over any phobia ever.
Also, be prepared for a few anticlimaxes. It was a good story, but bits felt ... stretched.))

[GreatWyrmGold]

((A few anticlimaxes, maybe, but it's a long story with a lot of arcs and such. If there weren't anticlimaxes every so often, I'd be surprised...and the story would be much more intense.
Also, I'm not sure what you mean by "stretched".))

((I'm using that term pretty loosely, and incorrectly as GWG points out. It's worth it if it's about super heroes doing elbow drops off of sky scrapers and shit.))

[Xantalos]

((It stretches my suspension of disbelief for what Taylor could do at some points beyond the expected. Most prominent in my mind was

fighting off Mannequin for IIRC over 10 minutes while she deploys her silk string plan which Mannequin doesn't really notice for some reason.

Sure, she's the main character, she's going to do cool things, but that? At that point in her career? I couldn't buy it. Same with the

7 Dragon suits, really. They didn't feel like a legitimate threat so much as they had me looking at my figurative watch waiting until they got defeat.

Lucky. My school was too small to have a psychologist, that would have helped mine a lot.
Lots of fellow people with it here. Derm, GWG, you, me... hmm. Surely not everyone here has it?
  Could be a side effect of DF, or maybe what attracts most players to DF.

Only at Act 2 or something myself. I have it bookmarked, but I haven't actually read much of it.
