A diamond in the rough

TrumanCapote has just bumped into a beautiful princess in the market of Aghraba, and has thus unidled. Quorum stays the same.

I also unidle, but won’t bother making a whole blog post about it. Quorum rises to nine.

Why is TrumanCapote not in the GNDT?

He’s in the dropdown, he just won’t appear in the table until he has some kind of variable set. This is an old GNDT quirk.

Apparently, you only need to select him as the “player to adjust” to make him appear.

Contrariwise, I’m going on xmas holidays today.  Woo for 14 hour flights… and then more flights.  Australia’s a damn long way from a lot of places.  I’ll be idle until January or so.

(Quorum drops to 8).

On a side-note, every time I add or subtract someone from the active list it bugs me that the idle players are comma-separated and the active ones aren’t.

Rats.

Anyone care to send me my GNDT password as well?

Kevan: he/him

Sent, via private message.

Truman: assuming you remember the GNDT administrator password you could’ve just looked it up.  It’s still the same.

Definitely don’t remember that either.  Remembering passwords you haven’t consistently used in over four years is hard.

I actually use it as my password for other things now. I like it. It’s a nice password.

... did you just reveal that a password that other people know is one that you use for personal things? ;)

Klisz:

10-12-2009 19:42:21 UTC

@Josh: Yeah, reveal your password to me. Great idea.

Klisz:

10-12-2009 19:42:44 UTC

Posted at the same time as NOI.

Truman: depends who you are.  Remembering passwords I haven’t used is easy.  The tricky bit is remembering what they’re for, because there’s much less memorization involved.  I have numbers and passwords filed in my head from all kinds of stuff.

Excalabur: Yeah, but you’re probably in your home country’s military or something, seeing as how you live in Australia but “aren’t Australian”.

(...if you’re not in your home country’s military, then how does that work, anyway?)

DC, NOI: yes, but I was lying.

Josh: But how do we know you’re not just lying NOW to cover up your earlier truth? MWAHAHAHA!!!

Try it and find out :D
