To give you an idea of the scale here, right after I took this picture I ran underneath the Colossus and wasn't even close to touching it's underbelly:

Hey, you should open up an account at blogger.com and post pictures of your adventures there. It'd be like a roleplay blog for you and you'd be able to showcase stuff you've found in the game. Sounds like a lot of work, but it really isn't and you'll be amazed when you look back on it and go, "HEY, I remember that!"

My problem is that I get WAY too caught up in the story. Way back when I played my first MMO (Jumpgate) I came up with a story arc that spanned something like 40 pages and culminated in a live play event that essentially stopped play on the server for an hour or two.

When I played Eve Online I wanted to get a feel for the story universe, so I wrote a couple of short stories there that turned out to be not-so short.

Bottom line, I have a selective type of OCD related to games - if I'm not careful about not immersing myself into the storyline I get completely lost in it for more time than I can afford.

Yeah, it's taken me like two years to write Widge's story up to the point that he joined Sawed Off, something that happened about 5 hours into the character's life ;)
