Dysgraphia is seeing letters in funny manners, backward and upside down and whatnot.

No. Not at all.

Apparently, I am wrong. According to google, dysgraphia is an impairment in making written marks.

Apologies for the bad info, all.

What this guy said. Dysgraphia is the inability to create cohesive, comprehensible inscriptions (aka writing/drawing). I've heard of what MZ is referencing, but I can't remember the name.

A quick primer on brain short-circuits:

Dyslexia - the inability to read and comprehend written words properly
Dysgraphia - the inability to create cohesive shapes via writing or drawing
Dyscalculia - the inability to comprehend mathematical concepts, sometimes even those as simple as basic arithmetic

Heeey. My memory wasn't as bad as I thought. Good thing, I guess ♫

[MaximumZero]

And mine is much, much worse. Sorry again, all.

Found my Giants: Citizen Kabuto disk just now. I'm salivating with anticipation.

Was that actually a good game?  I was really hyped for that one when it was in development, but never got my hands on it after it was released.

I may have ye' old nostalgia glasses on, but it was a pretty great game to me.

EDIT: Although I bet it gets a bit repetitive in its RTS parts.

I wonder how this works, but it's awesome xD Most random clickings make passable music.
You fill in the squares, MUSIC comes out! D:

Just sent out a D&D campaign idea.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

It is a tumultuous time for the world. With the completion of the siege of Maranda, culminating in the Great Fire, the Emperor Gestahl has seized control over the southern continent. Rumors fly of what might be next - expansion, consolidation? The Imperial Navy has blockaded every port on their own continent - only smugglers, landing in secret bays, carry out trade unsanctioned by the Crown. The Imperial Air Force, though lacking long-range aircraft that could support an invasion, is the only force of its kind in the world, powered by technology purchased from Figaro's ailing king and armed with Magitek weapons of incomparable power. Though the death of General Celes in the final days of the siege has shaken some members of the Army, its soldiers remain armed with Magitek power and training second only to the knights of Doma. Striking from hidden bases, the Returners are now the only opposition to the Emperor's will, and their numbers in the south are dwindling swiftly as they bear the full attention of the world's mightiest military.

...every PC from the original game is either dead, incapacitated, or never existed... Low-magic world, except that the Imperial military makes heavy use of magic-powered weaponry and many wealthy citizens have gained 1st-level spell-like abilities usable at will. Oh, and Narshe is inhabited by Dwarves, and Moogles are halflings. Depending on party preference, you could be loyal to the Empire or opposed to it, but either way it's pretty much going to define the whole thing.

Yes, there will be Kefka.

Uninteresting character-building minutiae excised.

Oh man, PCs as a platoon of Magitek Cavalry or Imperial Soldiers, battling Returner terrorism.

Tell me you're putting this together. This sounds amazing either way.

[Darvi]

Holy zark snow. In October. Up yours, global warming!

[Frumple]

Tell me you're putting this together. This sounds amazing, so long as moogles maintain their ability to slam dance.

FTFY.

FF6 AU sounds like thorough amusement, yes.

Though... I'unno, it being FF, even if FF6 is disconnected... shouldn't the dwarves be on the moon? A little FF5 style drop podding might be humorous.

I just want it to hurry up and drop below 70F in the day time. I don't think that's happened here, yet.

[Darvi]

DON'T TELL ME HOW REALITY IS SUPPOSED TO WORK.

[SalmonGod]

It felt like summer here in central Indiana the last couple days.

Possibly, but on the other hand Narshe could be described as a bunch of neutrality-heavy, isolationist miners and exceptional blacksmiths living up in the mountains. Basically they're just missing beards and alcoholism.

[Flying Dice]

Basically they're just missing beards and alcoholism.

The two worst things for anything to be missing.
