Dunno if any of y'all read Real Life-

[camwyn]

you know, the comic at this link - but I do, and I've done so for some time. Funny stuff, and one of the few strips to make it into Keenspace/Keenspot's "LEET" comic book that I actually like. Greg Dean - the comic's author and artist - is currently part of a webgame called Kings of Chaos, where you build an army and stomp around attacking/being attacked by people of similar strength. It seems like a neat idea so far, and it's free; the thing is that your army increases in strength based on how many people you recruit to the game, and then on how well you perform in combat, how strong your fortress is, how many mercenaries you hire, etc.

I clicked on the link at Real Life and signed on the game last night. I count as an officer in Sagus' army (his user name in the game); I'm Camwyn, a dwarf (the four races available are Human, Elf, Orc, and Dwarf). If I get attacked, I get assistance from him because he recruited me through that link. That's how it works. Of course, right now I'm too small to be noticed by anyone, let alone attacked, but hey - I'll deal.

So, anyway... if any of y'all think any of this sounds like it might be fun, would you consider being recruited into my army? This is my army recruitment link here. If not, no biggie.

Thanks!

I'd seen the link over at RL a while ago, but never got an itch to check it out. Decided to give it a go today. You've got an officer! Now I just need to get people to join under me, or something (http://www.kingsofchaos.com/page.php?id=338452).

Faboo! Thanks for signing up. Just a couple more and we'll be ready to thump someone!

Well, I was going to join your army, but the first time I went to the site, I registered rather than clicking on the link, so you didn't recruit me. I went back and checked, and felt like a fool, so I clicked on the link while simultaneously deleting the nation I'd just registered.

This was stupid, because it recruited the nation I'd just registered.

So in 24 hours or so, I can be recruited again, and I'll go join forces with you and whatnot.

Sadly, their website seems to be better at creating errors than any browser that I have access to is at fixing them. Sheesh. They could just tell me they didn't want me to play.
