Another reason for this column being so late is that I wanted to include the Mini Mume Meeting that took place in Stockholm on the 15th of April (last Saturday). The reason for this meeting was that Luke had taken the bus from Czech to come visit me... *cough*
So I put on my makeup (Although Luke was highly disappointed that it didn't show so well) and we all met at a place called Helene's Krog och Bar. Me, pRazoor, pLing, pLuke, pAmandil, pHorus and after a lot of whining, pZaber. (Takes him freakin ages to get ready.)
pAmandil's girlfriend was there once again, she has never missed a mume meeting in Stockholm and I think she was really excited beforehand!!! Everyone except pRazoor and me ordered food as we both had eaten beforehand but I still ended up eating from three plates in the end. (What do you expect? Free food. You know you're the same!). With a beer in each hand we began discussing the various topics of life, Mume, Mume, more Mume and Online Casinos.
And cheating. But the less said about that the better. *nod self*
After a bit, Luke and Ling brought out their "Hallonsaft" which actually was red absinth. I am a ok drinker (already started a thread about me not seeing the point in getting wasted :p) but that Absinth really burned my throat. I had a bottle at home years before but this really burned. Sadly they only brought very little and by the end of the night
me and pRazoor were demanding more. It really grows on you that stuff. Or it could of been that we were drunk and didn't feel our livers bleeding.
The meeting had a downside though. It was a huge blow for the people
fighting for equality between women and men. I do believe everyone should be equal although Ling almost shattered my beliefs into tiny pieces. Not only did she manage to break Lukes camera, she freakin
broke MINE as well! She only had it for less than 5 minutes as well. Damn newbie Ling. Women and technology... Stay in the kitchen! (editor's note: This from Blenda who needs me to convert all this stuff from notepad to HTML every month, cause he's not got a clue about it!) The meeting ended at 2 am and it was lucky pHorus had a friend who picked him up... He was in pretty bad shape! All in all a very good night *glare Ling*

We have a new ranger to add to our lists! Rercyn has now joined the ranks of the helpful rangers! Good luck and help those new players! They sure need it! (Least I did)

What a lot of players have in common on mume is the fact that the social
aspect of the game is very important. I often find that the community bitches and whines alot but underneath the pettiness we're all extremely socialable and likable people. Two great examples for this are the regular mume meetings and a thread that was recently created on elvenrunes. The meetings have proven that we all get along really well together and that we can set aside the fact that player X overkilled me last night. (Always that damn pesky player X!) And the responses to the "Teach me how to PK" thread really thrilled me. Extremely detailed and honest answers from lots of players... It really does show how strong the mume community is and I find it great! I've learned an incredible lot by just reading and lots of effort has been put into some of the posts
which is fantastic!

And speaking of fantastic... 18900 comments on the spam thread. Mind
boggling when you think about it!

Lastly the pink is to annoy Blenda for his Girls and Technology comment!
