Ahmet, may I respectfully bring the definition of 'commune' to your attention? I do not think it means what you think it means.

I thought it was common knowledge that a wolf's favorite food is the Body of Christ?

I love this guy! You're invited over for a beer.

@edminster:
Yay, i'm glad someone sees my idea.

Also cats are fecking ferocious, mine has humbled 2 rottweilers, a german shepard and a HUGE labrador so far.

[dinnsdale]

What kind of cat, dirigible?

Also-- nice to see what a hot topic my rhetorical question was. Alright, I concede defeat-- my signature is no longer purple.

[Snazz]

I want a taquito.

[Edminster]

*Donovan fixes the broken legs of Snazz*
There! Now you can go get your taquito. Mind you, I assume they were broken to begin with, otherwise you would have gotten the taquito.

[Snazz]

I see what you did there. Crafty.

The battle is half-won, men! We WILL take the purple hill!

So, I just happened to catch this, but Excel? That may be a problem. Allow me to elaborate;

I'm going to college for Computer Technologies with an emphasis on Programming and Network Administration. I was given a free trial to Microsoft Office 2007. After it expired, I used my l337 skills to hack (read: google for a hack) to use it for free. It worked....for a bit. Then shit itself and died. I'd attempt to run Word, Excel, Access, etc and it would tell me that a file was missing and to uninstall. I'd attempt to uninstall and it would tell me that a file was missing, to insert the original disc and re-install. Same error message, telling me to uninstall. Thanks to Microsoft's less-than-helpful Resources Site, in which I followed the detailed steps to fix this problem, it is now permanent.


TL;DR version- Can we use an alternative to Excel?

An undersized black house cat. She's small, but an utter bitch

TL;DR, use open office.

[Kidd]

Sounds good to me.

with or without marTAY choosing a class, I'll get the character sheets up with instructions tomorrow morning (my time... that's GMT-8 or U.S. pacific time). If he doesn't have a class chosen by then, I'm assigning him one.

[Lethal Interjection]

I'll jump in late on the purple-text conversation...
I have no ultimate problem with it, other than the fact that it always seems a tad attention-seeking to be the only person with coloured text (or a big sig for that matter).
Look at me! I'm different!

[dinnsdale]

You have a point there, Mr. Interjection. Now, though I'm sure I cannot persuade any of you, that happens to not be the case with me. This is simply my standard forum-posting set-up. In my defense, many of the other fora I chat on have users with much more ostentatious text. This is positively tame there. Alas, it doesn't seem to translate well to a site such as this where the posts are completely bland (content aside).
