I'm going offline for a full, non-negotiable two years time period which starts in about 4.5 hours. In the unlikely event that I win, could my title be changed to "lurkus hiatus"?
Well, thank you in advance. I look forward to returning to see in what direction the lounge has taken. I want to hear all about how WoW turned out, and what the next game covered at the LurkerLounge is going to be.
Cheers to all, I bid you adieu!

Wow. Where can you go for two years where they don't have an internet connection?
Good luck in Kabul? The secret Mars colony project? Iowa (if your on spindustry that is)?

Henceforth, the Diablo Clone will be known as...
"Diablo XP Professional"
It was a tough choice, and there were lots of great entries, but that one ended up being the clear favorite of the mods. Booyakasha, send me a private message, and I'll set up your new title.

Dang, and I was sure that Ãber Teufel vom Geisteskranken was a sure thing. :) Congrats Booyakasha! In honor of your victory I shall dedicate my first Diablo XP Professional kill to you! Prosit!

I personally think Diablo XP Professional is about as lame as DiabloClone. Then again, I'm biased against almost anything made by/related to the Small and Flaccid Corporation.

Take care,

And yet to me it some how seems appropriate to name evil demons after Micro$oft operating systems.

Good luck in Kabul? The secret Mars colony project? Iowa (if your on spindustry that is)? Two theories on where he might be going: - Mormon mission : On Lang's personal page the age is correct, and so is the time period. Not that a mission is non-negotiable, but internet access and time to use it will be very limited.

Oh no!! Now he's going to make us wait two years until we find out what he was doing!

I don't think I will be able to make it that long without knowing....
