It looks like CL will have another counter world again... I never got to try Alchera, as the downloads never worked correctly for me... but since those days, I've gotten a new system and I know a few people from CL that played Alchera and will be playing this new one called Arindal... I'm excited, as I enjoy CL, but after 5 and a half years, a little variation would be nice. The Arindal website is here.
On another note, I built a PC for myself so I'll have something to toy with for work reasons. Doing tech support and building PCs at work means I need to keep my mind fresh and up to date, so using some spare parts, a few used items, a few left over items bought from work and one or two new items I put together a PC. And the first program I'm going to install is AO, as a co-worker gave me a free code for a month free. So lots of new games on the horizon, maybe CL will finally lose its hold on me and I'll be free! naw, screw that... ;-)
