Ah the names bring back the memories. And yep, I remember the first "awesome" thing I found when I was playing the UO beta. It was a black pearl. I KNEW that I had struck it rich when I found that pearl and ran all the way to the bank to throw it in before a PK took it from me *grins*.
And yep, all the folks you mentioned were gm house placers, and I remember you all telling stories about the fights to place homes when they dropped.
Yeah that early UO game was awesome, and I haven't ever found any other game like it. UO has evolved so many times, and so many players have moved on to RL or other games. We still find ways to locate new awesome PAS members, and they love to hear stories about the good old days of PAS when UO first started.
Glad to hear Twist is still playing alongside you, I know you are tearing the bad guys up in FPSs
And yep, Kelli was 2 and Katie was 6 when we started playing UO as a family way back in 1998. Damn I'm old
Thanks for the post, Nash, I love hearing from our older members, especially the folks that remember McDuff, Blackstaff, and others that roamed Sonoma in the old days.
