Come close to my computer and don't suspect you might be a target. Take cover! One staff will be already flying towards your head.

The aquaduct bike

It purifies water as you pedal. Obviously that has good implications for rural areas without pure water (like, say, Somalia)

T`is will cause `Ox jump:

Pure curiosity: Ox, as you was solving the Temple of Illusions for the first time, did you pick up the longest or the shortest route first?  I gone for the longest one because I thought it was going to be more fun, and besides, I didn't truly believe it is the longest one.
I consider that whole place a small Disneyland in Arx.

Hehe...those zombies were really well made, I mean the way you couldn't tell if they were dead or just being, erh, undead. Of course, only one way to be sure, and use dagger+stick of wood to create stakes!
I'm not completely sure, but I think I took the long road too the first time. Because I figured the short route would be more "dangerous", ie that they'd punish the player for being so lazy.
Gotta love the temple of illusions. Only in Realms of the Haunting did I have as much fun with puzzles. There's one level where you need to find X amount of brains to fuel a machine. It's somewhere in one of the levels of hell, in case you wondered. RotH FTW!

It's not a zombie. It's a goblin and that there is a bloody bug, where the thing refuses to die, no matter how you butcher it.

Oh ok, it's been a while since I played Arx (6 months!  ). Good thing about it being a goblin is that they run away if you hurt them...unlike some others who just keep coming. :rolleyes:
J, that fish rocks.  Damn biblethumpers getting Satan beer banned...well, I guess it's their loss. But seriously, they need to get a life.

Haha, I've had that Satan beer. My beer store carries it... it's actually fairly common. The fact that people complained about it and it got pulled from store shelves doesn't surprise me. Christians are pansies and business owners roll over at the drop of a hat. Whatever, screw em.

Weight loss programm:
A guy calls a company and orders their 5 day/5kg. weight loss program. The next day, there's a knock on the door and there stands before him avoluptuous, athletic, 19 year old babe dressed in nothing but pair of Nike running shoes and a sign round her neck. She introduces herself as a representative of the weight loss company. The sign reads: "If you can catch me, you can have me." Without a second thought, he takes off after her. A few miles later, huffing and puffing he finally catches her and has his way with her. The same girl shows up for the next four days and the same thing happens. On the fifth day, he weighs himself and is delighted to find he has lost 5kg. as promised.
He then calls the company and orders their 5-day/10kg program. The next day there's a knock at the door and there stands the most stunning, beautiful and sexy woman he has ever seen in his life. She is wearing nothing but Reebok running shoes and a sign round her neck that reads: "If you catch me you can have me." Well, he's out the door after her like a shot! This girl is in excellent shape and it takes him a while to catch her;but when he does, it's definitely worth every muscle cramp and wheeze,so for the next four days, the same routine happens. Much to his delight, on the fifth day he weighs himself only to discover that he has lost another 10 kg. as promised.
He decides to go for broke and calls the company for its 1 day/10 kg weight loss program. "Are you sure?" asks the representative on the phone, "This is our most rigorous program." "Absolutely," he replies, "I haven't felt this good in years." The next day there's a knock at the door and when he opens it he finds this huge, muscular, 7ft black man standing there wearing nothing but pink running shoes and a sign around his neck that reads: "I'm Nigel. If I catch you, you're mine..."

Man...those WoW addicts are seriously sick puppies. Let me guess: this guy has a trust fund, is severely obese and has never kissed a girl. Pretty sure at least 2 of those 3 statements rings true.
