what the...?

[nijineko]

hi, i'm nijineko. was just reading the ninja campaign story (quite humorous, btw)(found here) =D and noticed an unusual name. i was wondering how that character name was derived. anyone know?

nice to meet all of you, as well!

(out of curiosity, why is this section of the website not reachable from other sections-as in no link?)

edit: oh yeah! the character name i was interested in is 'daverick'. might help you all to know. *^^*

[ForzaFiori]

i bet it was a combination of the names "Dave" and "Rick"

[averagejoe]

I could have sworn that someone in one of the Bauldur's Gate games was named Daverick. Hmmmmmm...

[AslanCross]

Not sure about Baldur's Gate (I only played BG2:SoA), but Neverwinter Nights 2 definitely has a Tavorick.

[nijineko]

i did a quick search and did find someone with that name. interesting! wonder who that is now. ^^

I think the answer to that question is that you're looking at a very old iteration of the website.

Oh yes, and the obligatory CHEDDER! for that dare that I still have...3 posts left to say it in.

[Gygaxphobia]

That's a pretty poor example of sarcasm, seriously poor. I might excuse it if it was obviously true and required mockery, but it's not necessarily the case at all.

But it had to be said.

That's because 'chedder' does exist. A chedder is someone who cheds.

In my day you had to make yer own cheese if you wanted one of these so called "Exotic" cheeses, you could only get standard cheese, and even those could only be gotten once a year, at the cheese market.

Well when I were a lad you had to walk to the cheese market, uphill. Both ways! Took 3 days, and by the time you got there all that was left were some old stinkin' gouda brought over by someone forren. I tells yer, don't know yer born these days...

I'm suprised the cheese reference didn't make that connection for you.

Course when I were a lad our dad would beat us to death every night, then we'd get up work a 25 hour shift, crawl on our bellies over broken glass for 40 mile to get to the cheese shop, for a sniff of the waste bin that the cheese wrappers were thrown in. Then we'd be ridden back home, over broken glass by the cheese shop proprioter so he can help our dad torture us to death every day for a week, only to have to get up three hours before we went to bed to start it all over again... tell that to the kids today and they don't believe you.
