Awww, I'd love that too. Tried asking Google what pagan deity I have to make a sacrifice to, in order to get some more free time, but no answer yet...

The currently popular trends is to get gun skins and dance moves in DLC's. Yes, dance moves, because you apparently can't play a shooter without dancing every ince in a while.

I remember all the fuss about plot devices - imagine a character gets a letter. Oh, that's a plot device, it deserves a whole page of analysis. But wait, this character also has a dream one night - that's another huge plot device. And the third page will be about how the letter and the dream interact with each other, and then there's all the angst this causes. And the protagonist is desperately waiting for this other important character to arrive (he sent the letter, and the dream was about him too) but he won't come because he died and is currently is a mass grave somewhere. And this tragic death is probably a plot device too, and there goes your whole afternoon...

Our old literature is marked by this strong patriarchal culture thing - there are closely-knit families and the oldest man is at the center of it all, a true King of his castle. But then capitalism starts to creep in, the old man's sons become greedy and start fighting one another, some character goes to the big city (always a symbol of decadence and severing the ties with those traditional patriarchal values) and the whole family starts to fall apart. Expectedly, this sort of stories were quite popular and appreciated during the communist regime.

This theme is also good because it's darker and easy on the eyes. Also mysterious in a way. People come here and think "Whoa, what kind of mysterious Wiki is this? I'd better get a crucifix."

There's been lots of improvement and growth on the Wiki for sure and this means that it's quite alive, even if there aren't that many people around. And as new things are encountered, more improvements will follow. Like a constant state of evolution.

Ricky was a nice guy. He took on a really nasty quest because some ghost spoke to him in his dream (plot device!), went into places that any normal person would avoid, and did all this without flipping out and killing everybody... until the sequel, that is :P

Imagine how the other rebels ask Luke "Wait, so Vader threw the Emperor in a chasm?" and he replies "Yeah, I guess he forgot to register at the throne room entrance." And the other rebels would nod, because they know there is no greater crime in their universe than not registering. And you better remember that too!

Yes, progress was slowed down cause I died quite a few times. And telefragged a few backpacks. And some of us also got stuck on severed heads and other body parts. But all in all, it was pretty fun. And we'll definitely go all the way to the glorious end. Wonder if there is a way to have a backpack telefrag Shubby. It would be so ironic.

I guess "Amcgee" was too hard to pronounce, so they settled for "Twillits". Or maybe it's an abbreviation? "Trap With Internally-Lit Low-Input Torture Spikes" perhaps?
