Ribbit... It's been so long since I've played this game religiously, like I used to. Surprised I still have the banner and all of that. To anyone who's been wondering why there haven't been any sightings of the my amphibious rear end, I'd like to clarify a bunch of stuff and give you the story of why I've had such a sickeningly long hiatus.
At the beginning of last school year, my senior year of high school, I was signed up for two dual credit college classes. After a few months, these classes became very overwhelming for me, and though I did my best to learn the subject matter and pass the class, I still barely scraped by. I also had a weekend job during the winter, which left me with little free time. Once I graduated, I got a job at a local taco joint and worked nearly every day of the week, which also greatly diminished my free time. I also had my wifi router destroyed by lighting that hit the house late one evening.
Now that I've officially started college, I expect to be very busy, what with all of the engineering classes I'm taking (going for a degree in electrical engineering) and having to work to be able to afford a higher education. But I do want to say this little bit: whether its for 5 minutes or a few hours at a time, I do plan on making Dogfight a little more habitual, like it used to be. I'm not saying you'll see me in the skies every day, buuuut I will also say that you may catch a snippet of the mythical creature that I've become due to school.
I congratulate any new members, as well as ask that I may gratefully be reinstated with the old tags that used to look so good (and intimidating) next to my plane.
I look forward to seeing you guys in the skies, and do hope I can afford the effort to play this a little more.
