You know you've been asking that question ever since first Batya and then I got addicted to this bizarre LJ-based RPG. Well, thanks to an online gaming magazine, I can finally explain it all...

Now you understand, don't you?

It's cool to noticed.

It's weird to be among the 4% in the game over 35. And among the mere 17% who are male.

But it's still cool.

I love that turn of phrase.
Nice article too.

None of my pups got mentioned; they're taking it with about the level of aplomb you'd expect. (Which is to say: Obi-Wan's surprised but doesn't mind; Mal's disappointed but unsurprised; Strong Bad is declining* fun new paradigms of "crap".)

Money quote, for my money at least: "suffice it to say that if you turned LiveJournal upside down and shook it, it would rain Harry Potter RPGs."

* In the sense of "declension".

Well, Barry is not too upset, since he shies away from the limelight. Besides, it mentions his grandson, Wally's daughter, and his potential love interest, so he's okay.
