Shadow of the West Discussion Thread - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Aman is having major problems with her computer - it's not allowing her onto the Downs. I'm posting this here at her request:

~*~ Pio

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My friends, Pashtians, countrymen/countrywomen/countrypersons of indescriminate gender....

Lend me your eyes. I come to make excuses, not to bury them.
The evil that a Barrowdowner does lives with them;
This evil is oft intered in their computer.
So has it been with my computer. The noble Pio
Comes to tell you that my computer has thrown a paddy and cannot get onto the Downs:
As it is so, it is a grievous fault,
And grievously I cannot (therefore) answer it (the RPG, that is).
Here, under leave of Fordim and the rest -
For Fordy is an honourable man;
So are they all, all honourable men/women/persons of indescriminate gender -
Come I to speak my excuses.

...ok, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I am, as you say, killing Shakespeare dead; quite a feat after a couple-a hundred years already lying in a cursed grave, but nevertheless one that is probably punishable by the slapping by a wet fish. And so I stop, however the allusion to Julius Ceasar is in my mind to this RPG.

The reason for this post? Well, my computer has, as I said, had a paddy - it is refusing to allow me access to the Barrowdowns at all. Most disagreeable. I am therefore obviously unable to read the RPG posts. Now the good saint Pio has agreed to help me out by sending me the posts from the RPG so I can keep up - a very kind offer indeed, but I'm afraid my audacity, dear readers, is going to stretch a little further.

I do not recieve half the notifications from this RPG - I get maybe one in five. Pio has sent me Nurumaiel's last post, so I am so far up to date. But I ask you if you could maybe help me out by doing one wee thing for me: my email is:

*** Aman left her email here - But I'd feel better if it weren't advertised - just PM me and I'll give it to you ~*~ Piosenniel ***

I'm trying my hardest to be humble here, please try not to read this as being cheeky, but I most humbly ask that, when you make a post on the RPG or the discussion thread...if you could send me a copy by email? Please! I feel like a right nuisance, and I'm terribly sorry for being a burden, but it would be a great help to me if you could do this. It should only be temporary, but I would rather not get behind, as I don't know exactly how long it will be until my computer comes to it's senses. Confounded machine. *glares*

If you have any other reason to contact me, please just send an email - I am on MSN with the same address, and on AIM with the name Amanaduial. I would be delighted to hear from you if you wish to contact me for any reason.

My thanks, and my apologies for being such a confounded nuisance,

Yours,
- Amanaduial
