[OT] A Day Long Remembered.

Ethel, not Alice

Alice the Aarvark Goes Quantity Surveying?
That would be "Ethel the Aardvark Goes Quantity Surveying."

It begins thusly...

'Ethel the Aardvark was hopping down the river valley one lovely morning, trottety-trottety-trottety, when she might a nice little quantity surveyor...'

Here are my other guesses:

'Thirty Days in the Samarkind Desert with the Duchess of Kent' by A. E. J. Eliott, O.B.E.?

'A Hundred and One Ways to Start a Fight' ... by an Irish gentleman whose name eludes me for the moment.

'David Coperfield' by Edmund Wells.

'Grate Expectations' (also by Wells)

'Knickerless Knickleby' (Wells)

'Khristmas Karol' (Wells)

'A Sale of Two Titties'

'Rarnaby Budge' by Charles Dikkens. That's Dikkens with two Ks, the well-known Dutch author.

'Karnaby Fudge' by Darles Chickens,

'Farmer of Sludge' by Marles Pickens,

'Stickwick Stapers' by Farles Wickens with four M's and a silent Q!!!!!

'The Amazing Adventures of Captain Gladys Stoutpamphlet and her Intrepid Spaniel Stig Amongst the Giant Pygmies of Beckles'...volume eight.

'Olsen's Standard Book of British Birds' (the expurgated version).

'Biggles Combs his Hair'

'The Gospel According to Charley Drake'

'Ethel the Aardvark goes Quantity Surveying'.

That's it!
 


If you must know...

I will be reading about AoO and starship combat and vehicle combat and ep II and all things good and great found in the RCR.
 

Thanks for the correction, The Sigil. My copy of The Contractual Obligation Album is on vinyl, and it's been a while since I listened to it.

Hopefully no one at the Geek Accreditation Board will see this thread, I just couldn't bear the shame.

Wasn't there supposed to be a pdf download that had most of the mechanical fixes at the wizards site? Whatever happened to that?
I'd like to know that, too. I did pay for an edition that lasted less than a Microsoft OS.

From what I understand, that fix will help you take your original d20 Star Wars character and make it compatable with the revised rules. If you want all the revised information, you will have to buy the new book. I picked mine up at Amazon for 30% off.

Why the pdf is not at Wizards site, I don't know. I was supposed to be out by now.

Are you referring to time between upgrades, or amount of run-time before needing a reboot?
