Official Message From The Fortress Of Solitude



Worry not, Dwellers - I'm still here.

Regular visitors to the Fortress Of Solitude may have noticed a dip in new threads. Am I finally giving in to the inevitable and closing the site? Have I lost interest due to there STILL being no new members? Have I ran out of things to talk about?

A resounding NO, accompanied by that odd farting sound from Family Fortunes can answer all those sacrilegious questions. The real answer is far more boring and, ugh, real life.

Thing is, I am studying literature right now, and I have an assignment due next week. I have to write a poem (a POEM! Me!) and an essay about what the poem is about and whatever and.. well, I really need to concentrate on that. Besides a few scribbled notes here and there, I've done precisely squat. So unless I want a big fail, whenever I sit at the computer, most of the time I really need to be concentrating on that. In fact, I'm postponing my quest to get into arcade games via the PC until this is done. Can you imagine your humble narrator with 4000 arcade games on the very computer he's supposed to be writing an assignment on? Exactly.

I'll still be popping in and maybe starting the odd new topic this week, but I may not. As always, if there's any topic you want to start you can mail me it (the_curmudgeon_hates_you@yahoo.co.uk) and I'll post it for you but other than that, it's going to be a quiet old 7 or 8 days in The Fortress.

Now then.. Iambic pentameter... oh Christ.
