So we have enough for a linkshell now. What should we name it? And what color?

Sigh, too bad it looks like I won't be getting the game until Tuesday at earliest...

vinny sucks...quit working and play like the rest of us...

Heh, I'll play soon enough. I'm still trying to figure out the best day to take off so I can "deal" with UPS.

Wasted 10+ hours this week playing the "tag" game with them and I'm fed up with it.

can't you just have it shipped to your work place?

oh I'll be saving up some money for linkshell too...color-wise, hmm I say pink! I mean...not pink. Anything works for me as long as it doesn't look awful.

I already have the exercise bike. Problem is, the frame is bent (not sure if it's UPS' or the factory's fault). Fortunately, there's a guarantee so they'll take it back and ship me a new one, all at no expense.

However, UPS has the brilliant policy to pick up anytime between 9 am - 7 pm and refuses to notify you in advance (via phone call, etc). Even better, they only pickup/deliver on weekdays. Perfect!

I've tried leaving to work later than normal and getting home by 5 pm (one of the many phone calls I made said UPS shows up at ~5:45 pm). Still no luck, heck, there were also several no shows (at least no sticker to be found). Better yet, one of my UPS calls a few days ago said they tried to pick it up 7 times. I've only gotten 2 friggin' notices (supposedly they leave one at every attempt).

As for the "why don't I bring it to work" or "to the leasing office", yes, I've thought of both. However, I live in a 2nd floor apartment, and the boxed up exercise bike is both bulky and pretty heavy at ~150 lbs. It's not something I plan on doing.

Did I ever mention I hate UPS?

oh ok I thought you were talking about receiving your FFXI order via UPS. Never mind completely off topic. Back to the original linkshell topic

I named it OrdoRosaeCrucis and made the color pink. Meant to do red but apparently I'm colorblind.

Anyway ask me (Diotallevi), Davlok, or Vikki to make you a linkpearl.

VLSmooth · Post by **VLSmooth** » Sun Nov 02, 2003 6:02 pm

Okay, I gotta ask, how did you come up with that name? Besides ORC, I'm pretty confused right now...

Also, to quote Red Vs Blue, it's "light red"

Ordo Rosae Crucis = Order of the Rosy Cross

I think it was a secret organization that was rumored to be formed by the surviving members of the Knights Templar. Or something.

Here's some info about them:

But Dave declared his undying love for Peijen! Doesn't that at least count for something?

vinny is just procrastinating as usual, even when buying a game!!!
