Kingdom of Loathing is the first to be reviewed. It's rather silly, but still a fun game, its a browser based MMORPG, and if you can you should donate to it, its an awesome game. even though it's silly, it's better Role Playing than most supposed MMORPGs out there, as far as options go. It can get a bit toilsome, and having you recharge only 40 (of 200) adventures a day, and all at the same time rather than at intervals is kind of annoying, but the other cool stuff really makes up for it. There are 3 basic skills: Muscle, Mysticallity, and Moxie. there are 6 classes:
The Seal Clubber
Seal Clubbers hail from the frigid Northlands, because one character class always hails from the frigid Northlands. They rely on their Muscle to survive.
The Accordion Thief
The scourge of mariachis and polka bands, the Accordion Thieves have plied their malign craft since time out of mind. Their Moxie serves them well in both their adventures and their interactions with "the ladies."
Pastamancers are a mysticality-based crafting/spellcasting class with the ability to summon and cook noodles, making some of the best foods in the game. They can also learn combat and healing spells
Saucerors are mystical spellcasters who can cook potions and sauces, ingredients of powerful noodle dishes. They can also create saucespheres, shield buffs which can damage enemies, restore health and bestow other effects. They have offensive combat spells and passive skills which increase spell damage
Disco Bandits are a moxie-based class with high evasion and the skills to make advanced cocktails, highly potent booze. They also have combat abilities which weaken their enemies and looting skills which increase item and meat drops. They, along with Accordion Thieves, can pickpocket enemies to steal their items, including some items that can only be obtained from pickpocketing.
Turtle Tamers are a muscle-based defensive class, with combat abilities that depend on and enhance their armor. They can learn to craft armor and cast a number of defensive and familiar-enhancing buffs
I'm a level 11 Turtle Tamer, which is harder to do than it sounds. if you get stuck on a quest (except the Epic Weapon Quest) go here, it's a very helpful site: http://www.zerokelvin.org/kol.html#q-lew.
in all, KoL gets 4 1/2 Awesomeness Points out out of 5.
later people.
(pay no attention to the Blue words, btw, i got the class stuff off wikipedia, which reminds me:

return
well, i have now officially returned from my six day adventure that was my first time on the east coast. i flew to new york (the city i fear the most in the world) and from there to pittsburgh. i hung out in pittsburgh for five days, and then went back up to the acursed city to stay the night until noon today, and then come up back home. i met a woman (for lack of a more mature yet less young sounding word) that i liked, who lives in Kansas, and now she's going to come up to washington to visit the friends she made (me included) at the end of august.
really man, how lucky can a humble(ish) priest of Firoth get? my prayers must be getting through... as well as my praises. (knock on wood).

man you guys sound constipated of late, perhaps you should all just relax and chill. kick off your shoes open a cold beer and watch your favorite sports program. mebbe you'll stop yelling at each other!
Who put the draconian shit up at the top? Only like two of us can read that, and those two need a "dragon to common" dictionary. The level of nerdiness shown here is outstanding. However admirable this serious study of a completely useless language is, I think it best it should be translated back into the realm of what I call "english".

hey fellas. Back from good ol' houston in texas. Visited my sick grandparents, got food poisoning from a sonic burger. Been shitting my intestines out for the past few days...
On a lighter note, I did visit a warhammer shop in houston. Wanted to see if texan nerds were much diffrent than the washingtonian nerds were. They were mostly the same. They appeared to favor chaos space marines mostly, however i did see some tau sentiment. Saw a afro, and a sizeable population of zits. (no chicks present, not surprising) There were a few key differences, such as the shop having smelled of soiled mint deoderant. That and there was a larger amount of children there, less of a preponderance of 40 year old losers.
thank you and good night.
