Lol, like that time an Imperial courier ran past me towards the exit of Ragnvald. But how did that Stormcloak courier get hold of an Attunement Sphere?! Maybe one of those guards was right when he said, "maybe I'm the Dragonborn, only I don't know it."

Woke up after a nights sleep in the Farm Overseer's House, and walked out to Blackreach to find http://cloud.steampowered.com/ugc/523781054771881499/222130C50491EF0E97172A1D795D2F0D4C7C70C5/

Unreal.... I mean, NO ONE gets into Blackreach without an Attunement Sphere, right? Wow.

This is a first. http://cloud.steampowered.com/ugc/523781054774839997/0699646F7F5A21B65A8FA457BD03A232A2A68CB9/

My new character watched a Fire mage and an Ice mage fighting it out this morning. The Ice mage won, then attacked me, a heavily armed and armored warrior, with a dagger. Great tactic, squishy.

Hit him so hard he spun in a full circle before dropping like a sack of rocks.

I got in through Mzinchaleft without one. Probably a glitch though.

I was having problems with textures and such loading a while back, and I had Mjoll's quest to retrieve her sword. By pure chance I was approaching one of the lifts on the way to Mzinchaleft, and there was a glitch. The opening at first appeared as a stone wall instead of the vertical spear gate. Then the wall faded away leaving the entrance open. I bounded inside before the gate could appear, dropped down the shaft, opened the door, grabbed Grimsever and was out and away just like that!

I had something similiar. I can't remember the situation but out in the wilds one day and had been in a fight of some sort. When suddenly I had a red dot behaving very odd. I looked, and there was nothing there. But the red dot kept skitting back and forth. It couldn't be... it was a fox that was running around me. Suddenly I had lots of red dots! Goats and all wildlife were popping up as hostile. But none of them attacked me. I believe I fast traveled and it went away.

Obviously had to move away a distance before I could fast travel though.

I ran across this back when I first started playing but forgot all about it until I stumbled on him again last night. But in behind Solitude there's a skeleton in the snow with 3 or 4 weapons stuck into him. A couple axes and a few swords I think. I think there was a book laying beside him too, can't remember the name of it. It's not part of any quest I've come across yet.

Back in there, there's also a sabrecat den with a dead argonian laying there. He's got a book entitled Better Thieving. I had to chuckle when I saw that, apparently he didn't work hard enough on getting better.

Well, you gotta start small.

I ran across 3 Orcs dressed like Imperials who demanded money from me, but not like theives do. When I didn't cough up the cash they attacked me.

I was heading cross-country from Ivarstead to Riften when I saw a strange sinuous shape speeding downhill through the grass. As I got closer it turned out to be three chicken eggs. As I picked them up I got hit by an electromage, or whatever they're called. When I looted him I found a fourth chicken egg. No wonder he was trying to fry me!

Beat me.... only 37 for me....

And me, only at about 33 for me. I'm such a noob! Actually, it's probably longer, as my neighbor had a Pong.

I feel so damn young. Well, hey. Gotta start somewhere.

Back in my day, we used computers made of cast iron with maple bearings, and programmed them by tying knots in a length of string wound around a spool. Time was you could only place 640 knots (640K) on a string. Bill Gate's famously said, "640K should be enough for anyone."

Now get off my lawn.

i was sneaking about outside cant remember were though and i could hear heavy breathing.after looking around trying to find what i could hear i found a completly invisible horse.i only found it coz i swung my sword where the breathing was heaviest.it followed me for a while so i ran away.creepy

Yes, don't give up!

My first computer we didn't even have string - we had to use vines - and we used bronze that we had to hammer (no casting tech back then).

I remember getting an extended 80-strand card to double the memory to 128 Knots.

For the less old ones who don't get the reference: I'm talking about an Apple //e with and extended 80-column card. You can find them scattered about the ancient Nord ruins - I think there's even a unique one in Forelhost called Woz's Terminal of Antiquity.

Don't you tell me about 80x25 cards, young man! This is the proof of evolution: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacquard_loom, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Punched_card, text display*, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Punched_tape, which was good enough to operate the machines I ran as late as 1992... Wait, you're talking about that upstart home business? Bah, humbug. At any rate, apart from duck and cover, do not fold, spindle or mutilate were the watchwords of the day!

From our friends at Wikipedia:

*"A legacy of the 80 column punched card format is that most character-based terminals display 80 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Characters_per_line. As of November 2011 some character interface defaults, such as the command prompt window's width in Microsoft Windows, remain set at 80 columns and some file formats, such as http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FITS, still use 80-character http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Card_image."

Less than two decades ago I was sending payment to my insurance company which still used the IBM punchcard. True story. What's depressing about that? I'm living in the future. Sigh.

What's really sad is that I used to be able to read the data on a punch tape, 8 bits a line, lol.

Had the 3 orcs dressed as imperials once. There were 3 dead naked imperials close by.

Yeah, those predate my experience - we had floppy disks and stuff.

Punch cards were effective if you kept them dry and neat and you could store them next to magnets.

FWIW, the first word processing 'computer' was just that: a word processor and we used 8-in floppies. Now those were "floppy".
