font family - just a backup
Not everyone has zapfino installed as a font. The way to do a backup list is:  Foo . This way if the person doesn't have the zapfino font (mostly found on macs), it tries Vivaldi which is not uncommon on PCs and close to what I think you're after, then to Apple Chancery which is the default mac font for cusive and on some pcs, then brush script MT because I think the default for windows for cusive is Comic Sans MS which isn't what you are after. The thing being, this provides a backup list for the font - just in case someone doesn't have one installed. You also might like script 9 or oldscript which are both free fonts and you can point people where to get it easily (I've got it now on my system). There's also a way of embedding a font in the css, but you need control of the css rather than just the style in the span so you will know the user has the font - you sent it to them. Some day, I'll get back into the hobby of fontology and make free (beer and speech) fonts  --Shagie 05:37, 27 May 2008 (EDT)
 * Thanks, Shagie! :) Much obliged... 17:21, 27 May 2008 (EDT)

Kurgan
You Liberapedeites are old friends of Kurgan, aren't you? I was gonna leave him unblocked today, though, because as far as I can see he only put up an inane advert about a fight between him and his sock. Did he blank a page I didn't see? 18:12, 27 May 2008 (EDT)
 * It must have been my Block Kurgan reflex. 23:48, 27 May 2008 (EDT)
 * I understand that block Kurgan reflex. If that Wikivandal battle User:Kurgan threatens happens you'll need that block Kurgan reflex. Proxima Centauri 15:54, 31 May 2008 (EDT)
 * Well, we sort of have a policy of not blocking vandals' usernames unless they have actually done vandalism, except SHahB and Grawp. 16:08, 31 May 2008 (EDT)

I like my new pledge

 * I see. Have bear: [[image:bear.gif]]
 * Did you enjoy it? 14:50, 31 May 2008 (EDT)
 * Enjoy what? 14:52, 31 May 2008 (EDT)
 * The bear, silly. 15:10, 31 May 2008 (EDT)
 * Oh. Ummmm... er, it was, *ahem*, very, er, nice of you, Jelly... 15:12, 31 May 2008 (EDT)

Atonement
A thousand I'm sorrys for my massive failure on the WIGO talk page Archive attempt... as an act of remorse... I hereby block myself for the night... and now I take my leave, I have a play to perform in... Good day But seriously, thanks for cleaning that up SirChuckB  18:52, 31 May 2008 (EDT)
 * I am glad you chose to confess so soon. However, I have decided that you will burn in hell for eternity nonetheless. Godspeed! 19:46, 31 May 2008 (EDT)
 * Impossible, I sold my soul to Mephisto long ago in an attempt to become bounded to an enslaved demon and thereby becomming a supernatural superhero. SirChuckB  02:45, 1 June 2008 (EDT)
 * Yeah, er, good for you. :) 12:01, 1 June 2008 (EDT)
 * Obviously not a Marvel Comics fan I see :) SirChuckB  20:49, 1 June 2008 (EDT)
 * Hmf. I've seen the Fantastic Four movies though. 21:27, 1 June 2008 (EDT)
 * Well, to keep this short and to attempt to hide some of my nerd like qualities, that's the backstory to GhostRider SirChuckB  00:39, 2 June 2008 (EDT)

(unindent) I missed the joke.... help me out SirChuckB  00:46, 2 June 2008 (EDT)
 * There is no joke but AKjeldsen. It's a Bohdan thing. 00:48, 2 June 2008 (EDT)
 * Ah, I see...... Not really, but I'll nod and smile anyway SirChuckB  00:49, 2 June 2008 (EDT)

Hey…
…feel like beta-testing RationalBlogs? --λινυσ (☮) 22:02, 1 June 2008 (EDT)
 * Why not? 22:03, 1 June 2008 (EDT)
 * Thanks. The process should be pretty self-explantory, but if you need (or simply want) help, please ask me. --λινυσ (☮) 22:07, 1 June 2008 (EDT)
 * I have an account called "lyra," dyou want me to make a blog? 22:22, 1 June 2008 (EDT)
 * I would say "yes", but you already have. Thanks again. :) --λινυσ (☮) 07:51, 2 June 2008 (EDT)

Bugler
Sorry, Lyra. I only put that in to provoke you - and it worked :-) 19:02, 2 June 2008 (EDT)

 * NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!! Day becomes night, podium becomes chair, what will become of the rules????? Oh, waily, waily, waily! 23:23, 2 June 2008 (EDT)

Rename
Hope it's what you wanted. 00:41, 3 June 2008 (EDT)
 * 1. Be sure to change your signature links. 2. Also, it's a good idea to re-register your old user name, since now it's available for Bohdan to commandeer, if he's awake.  ħ uman  00:54, 3 June 2008 (EDT)
 * Wait, why didn't you just git urself changed to Lyra Belacqua? Surely it's available (if not, I could kill the imposter...)?  ħ uman  00:57, 3 June 2008 (EDT)
 * [[Image:Shifty.gif]] Thanks, Pinto. 07:29, 3 June 2008 (EDT)

User Page
Thanks for that, you made me lose the game. 19:49, 3 June 2008 (EDT)
 * Huh? 23:41, 3 June 2008 (EDT)
 * "The game is up." made me lose the game. 02:33, 4 June 2008 (EDT)
 * Dude, you actually lost a long time ago. SHahB 02:38, 4 June 2008 (EDT)
 * Damnit, Locke. Now you made me lose it. :-( -- AKjeldsen Potential fundamentalist! 04:08, 4 June 2008 (EDT)
 * You're welcome then. 09:37, 4 June 2008 (EDT)
 * Shouldn't it be "many a good hanging stops a bad marriage"? 09:38, 4 June 2008 (EDT)
 * Also, ignore my signature. It's acting up. 09:38, 4 June 2008 (EDT)
 * Er, no... that's verbatim from the play... ????... 09:43, 4 June 2008 (EDT)
 * Very peculiar. I suppose wherever I heard it quoted just got it wrong, then. My one sounds better, though :P 09:47, 4 June 2008 (EDT)


 * Shakespeare is probably one of the most quoted authors ever, and thus also one of the most misquoted ones. In this case, however, he does most assuredly write about good hangings rather than ordinary, everyday ones. -- AKjeldsen Potential fundamentalist! 10:43, 4 June 2008 (EDT)
 * We must be looking at different texts of the play. They are so famous that there are bound to be a few discrepencies throughout the numerous editions. 15:17, 4 June 2008 (EDT)

Goddamn you all... I may be terrible at it, but this sort of thing doesn't help. Uchiha KATON! 10:15, 4 June 2008 (EDT)
 * What? 15:17, 4 June 2008 (EDT)
 * "The game". The object is to not remember you're playing. It seems pretty pointless to me, and I only know about it because a vandal posted an article about it a while back. You could probably look it up, if you wanted. 15:21, 4 June 2008 (EDT)
 * What is this "game" you speak of? 15:22, 4 June 2008 (EDT)
 * It's a game that's just called "the game". That's all there is to it. 15:27, 4 June 2008 (EDT)
 * This might be the strangest conversation ever. Gentlement, the game is up. 15:28, 4 June 2008 (EDT)
 * Hardly. Look up some of my exchanges with SHahB sometime. Also, The Game. -- AKjeldsen Potential fundamentalist! 15:46, 4 June 2008 (EDT)

What happened to your very kind offer of help with my signature woes? Oh, woe is me! 15:40, 4 June 2008 (EDT)

Blockquote
Tsk tsk tsk... 20:53, 4 June 2008 (EDT)
 * I fail at blockquote. :( 20:54, 4 June 2008 (EDT)
 * [[image:nods.gif]] But there must be some way of making that interview look right. 20:57, 4 June 2008 (EDT)
 * We have a number of quotation templates, most of which aren;t very intuitive (but do work). What are we talking about ;) I could go break it worse...  ħ uman  21:16, 4 June 2008 (EDT)

Re: Your boredom
Are you perhaps familiar with the TV Tropes site? It is easily capable of removing a few hours of one's precious life. -- AKjeldsen Potential fundamentalist! 11:58, 8 June 2008 (EDT)
 * Talvez lo conozco. Hablando en Español es buenísimo, y lo que me recomindió estuvo cansando e informacionando. 00:52, 9 June 2008 (EDT)
 * Does it work to stack up the namespaces on a "my fault" thing like that? <font color="#DD00DD" face="comic sans ms"> ħ uman  23:18, 9 June 2008 (EDT)
 * No, I have to actually wrote a "recipe" or "fun" page, otherwise it just says "no results found," methinks. Lyra Silvertongue 23:22, 9 June 2008 (EDT)
 * Ah... did you try it without those namespaces? Just curious... <font color="#DD00DD" face="comic sans ms"> ħ uman  23:56, 9 June 2008 (EDT)
 * No, but I'm a userpage fundamentalist. All or nothing, I'll just wait until I find purpose to write a recipe. :-) Lyra Silvertongue 23:59, 9 June 2008 (EDT)
 * Just make one up, like I did. And for fun, I think even just moving an article there counts as creating it, to the software.  So it oughtta be a piece of cake ;) <font color="#DD00DD" face="comic sans ms"> ħ uman  00:13, 10 June 2008 (EDT)

Hey!
Some guy wrote an article about you at RWW. 23:44, 11 June 2008 (EDT)

 * I was going to write one for NF, actually, but I don't know much about him. And Hans rewrote the article a little bit, the meanie. 00:39, 12 June 2008 (EDT)

 * I know, it is new :). 19:15, 29 June 2008 (EDT)

Parody
Glad you found my parody so convincing. Playing an evil moron is fun, but can be sort of scary, particularly when method acting. I believe someone else said my parodying was poor, being too over the top. Took them long enough to catch on. They never did revert any edits. DickTurpis 15:49, 8 July 2008 (EDT)

Welcome back
That is a name I haven't seen around in a while. 01:34, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Awww thanks... are you the user formerly known as "Jellyfish?" If so it has been a while, I guess. ;) 01:36, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
 * I am the user formerly 3.14159, until I discovered you could stick non-alphanumeric characters into the name box, now login is a complex task. Jelly, became Chaos! (with the apostrophe) and then Pink, they are gone now although they hang around ASK a bit. I miss Jelly she/he was the one that sysopped me. 01:42, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Oh right now I remember, sorry! I do remember you now I think about it. So Jelly became a crat, that's interesting. 01:46, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Welcome back Lyra. I think you'd gone before I got here (I've been at RW since August), but I'd noticed some of your past contributions (& am also a Pullman fan).  Good to see you back here.   21:52, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
