Swith: It's because you're so awesome. God himself refreshes the screen before he types just to see if Nightkill has written anything while he was off somewhere else.

Because I'm insane, I spend much more time on biology than culture.

So when I'm actually writing, I'm scrambling to make shit up without focusing too much on an alien's special kidneys.

The actual percentage of gays is likely much less, I just stopped after 28 characters.

Hah, I have that too. I've been working on sci-fi as well as fantasy, and in the former I have thus far worked on three races that make up some sort of federation as well as the pathogen that eventually killed them.

I've spent a shitton of time working on the specific mechanisms of that pathogen, but since it's part of my field of study I'm not that surprised that I take a greater interest in biology.

I have told the border between sci-fi and fantasy to fuck itself, gleefully mixing pseudoscience elves with pseudomagic aliens.

In general, though, the current work is a more fantasy one.

Nothing prevents me from eventually taking both separate worlds and mixing them together.

I'm now debating making a chart of countries or races among player characters in EH.

Because once you've gone past the brink, well...

I still prefer sci-fi, but that's because lasers and robots.

If an actual scientific concept pops up that I think is cool, I see no reason why it shouldn't be used to kill a wizard.

As a side note, I still dislike magic, and refuse to use it. Oh, sure, I'll bend reality through the power of a race humans cannot comprehend, but it is not. Magic.

Racial demographics won't produce much.

Country could be interesting.

I admit surprise at the demographics produced by the last chart.

May produce a gay or lesbian character to even out the field a bit, since one of our gays, Gabriel is dead, Michael is somewhere, Astro rarely posts and I think Francois is gay but wasn't too clear on it.

Why does it matter?

And the numbers are fairly realistic at that; the first and last time anyone will ever accuse us of that.

I'm simply saying that you shouldn't go around making new characters for the sake of it.

But don't worry, I won't force anything.

My computer does not recognize the word "pugnacious", but does "necromantic".

I'm not sure what this says about me, but surely nothing good.

It's very weird to see how nervous and excited Daniel Radcliffe was to be on The Colbert Report.

Nerd joy was all over his face.
