Galaxies Destroyed!

Yeah, I know it's only temporary, but it's irksome nonetheless.

I'd planned on getting up this morning, downing a whole lot of beer and playing SWG until my vision got too blurry, or until my fingers failed on the mouse and keyboard -- whichever came first. So I poke around here on WoSW for a bit first and then try to log on to SWG. And what do I get? All servers down for a new chapter update and the testing thereof. Bugger all!

Now, I almost never bother reading the "news" that pops up when you first log onto the game, but I kinda figured something was up when I got to the character selection page and all of my characters were naked. I just hope that isn't some awful portent. I've spent a lot of time on the look of my characters! I mean, you probably wouldn't how much time I've spent on their clothes! (And no, I'm straight.) It'd kill me if all that got lost somehow.

If it does get lost, that'd be so much of my time down the drain. I could've perfected cold fusion instead.

  1. Man do I miss SWG. It's been a year and a half since I had it. Ah well maybe someday I'll be back

  2. True, but it's getting a bit like that here to some extent, though nowhere near as bad as I hear it is there - still, Oh the humanity! A naked body! I get that each time I do a nude sketch too *tut's* bet these people cover all the mirrors in their house when they get out the shower too!

  3. More likely that they figured you're not a bunch of freaky Puritans like we've got here in the States, where people would say, "Oh no, the naked body! It's pornography! A thing of the DEVIL!"

    *eyeroll*

  4. At least they gave your characters undies to hide their blushes, not so with mine! I took the humerous view that they must have heard that all us Europen people go commando so did likewise for our characters lol.

  5. I started fresh when the "PLEASE COME BACK" invite went out, so none of my characters is up to the task for the new stuff.

    As for the naked thing, well, they actually had the li' white undies on. I'm told, by a certain !@#$y ent, though, that there's some mod out there that will allow you to see characters naked. Yeah, that's just what I wanna see...Ithorian penis...wonderful...

  6. The naked characters thing always happens to me whenever they add something new. The only time when they did change everyones appearences was sometime after the NGE, I was so angry at them for that - as you said, you spend a lot of time working on how your character looks...and they go and change it! Out of curiosity, i'm gonna check out this new chapter tonight :D

  7. Addendum:

    Of course, they go back up now. Now. After I'm already borderline plastered.

    Thanks, SOE!

    Bastages...
