Virtual/Reality Cross-over :
At the moment stuff that is happening with Oracle is affecting Kev in real life...not the first time this has happened but Oracle has a lot of virtual stuff to think about at the moment with the England Captaincy and significant personnel changes within Scorpio.
So I see this blog as a bit of a therapy session, within my own head (Kev's head), to help untangle Oracle from Kev and make some sense of this craziness
Having said that, when EU is described as 'virtual' rather than 'reality' I often wonder.
I'm a real person sat at a real PC and existing/playing in real (earth) time. I spend real money, win and lose real cash that I have worked hard for in real life.
Within EU I've made real friends and, only a very few, enemies.
I've had real conversations and made real plans to do stuff with people.
Within EU I can feel real emotions, sometimes scarily strong ones including happiness, surprise, disappointment, anger and even fear (well, not quite, but I have felt startled sometimes by the unexpected appearance of an atrox or spider when I've been falling asleep at the keyboard hunting weaker mobs)
Some EU guys have met up in real life and I guess that has changed their relationships within EU.
There are probably other examples showing how the line between virtual and reality is becoming blurred.
Scorpio Society :
Scorpio has recently taken 4 former members of Magnum Opus society. We have had excellent relations with M.O. for some time and everyone in Scorpio likes our new guys
Alongside this though Asti is chipping out to devote more of his time to Mindstar (gratz once again guys and best of luck!)
And recently Rav has announced he is temporarily selling out to fund his degree (but promises to come back stronger than ever when he has completed his studies and has a well paid job).
So Scorpio is in a state of flux at the moment and is something I need to keep an eye on.
