I have to say, ladies and gents, that I found myself utterly excited and a bit over-joyed (read: too much joy for the given situation) to see a message arrive in my email today reading, "You have a new private message from Escape from the Underdark!" That warm tingly feeling came back, that nostalgic buzz tickled the pleasure centers of my brain, a feeling I had not experienced for many years. Like a veteran receiving a letter from a long-lost comrade of wars past, I made haste to this beloved website and opened up my Inbox. One new message! Huzzah! Click...click...anticipation builds...click, click...

Cliff Edwards. Ye of false tidings, my old arch nemesis. Why, Cliff, why? And for that matter, what the hell is wrong with me that lifetimes after retiring my last EfU character I'm still this giddy over the thought of rekindled connections with my friends of old?
As such I hope this silly little posting will at least garner the attention of one or two old friends, and if it does, I'd love to reconnect. In the most adult and rational way possible. Eh, screw it, do your worst.
Yours truly and, it seems, for all eternity,
Thilodius
Sounds like you better get your computer checked out for viruses sir.
Seeker Mace pumps iron in his room with his shirt off.
No elaborate animation to express your disappointment? :(
CLIFF EDWARDS. That is a funny name. It sounds a bit porn star'ish.
Thilodius, Cliff wants you to come back and play EFU:A. Don't disappoint Cliff.
Cliff Headwards.
I got the same message :o
So did I. Cliff also requested a receipt to ensure that I got his -IMPORTANT- message. I clicked cancel on that, and then deleted his message. I didn't even finish reading it.
I make Cliff cry.
Also, Thilodius. Come back. You know you want too. I still haven't forgotten the time that Mace Griffon requested a half dozen or so Potions of Accuracy to steady his hand in combat. If only I had left a note at the Rock Bottom, you'd still be here... If only... :(
I hate you Thilodius. You walked in and did nothing. You just watched. You. Just. Watched.
roflmao.
Been there, deleted that... What's this world coming to ffs? :-?

Cliff should read "How To Make Friends and Influence People".
Got the same message.
That's actually my alt account. You seriously do have a virus, you guys.

i 'reconnected' with cliff edwards in the back of an abandoned fedex truck
Cliff has been busey. He has found virus at my computer also. He is such a dedicated person.

Goodness, what an ugly URL.
How strangely ironic.
I did not receive this message.
Is it wrong that I'm slightly put out by this?
Well... you weren't even registered on the forums at the time...
Oh, true enough. That's OK then, I am content.
Better luck next time!
#Thilodius?
I tried to reply;
Dear Cliff Headwarts. Do you really think I'd fall for that one? I lol at you.
Sincerly yours, Johan Maxon.
Not possible though, it was disabled :((
It's not like he would have seen it anyway.
And there are people who fall for it, otherwise it wouldn't be done.
