Rainyday!!<P>I'll probably be online tonight between 11-12. I'll be in Ariel 10, my game is usually called BlueberryDonut with password leroy (if it's locked) And if I'm in another game I'll still be in Ariel 10 so look for by looking at the list of games, you can highlight a game being played and press (i think) X (the yellow button) to see who is in it.

Yup, It's me on another PC-o-shit, that net admin tweaked not to support cookies. So, another logon name. Oh, hell.
Elroy, if you're reading this. DELSABER'S RIGHT ARM will yield the DELSABER's BUSTER. The same weapon you see wielded by the Delsabers in Ruins. pretty damn powerful weapon too. Kireek's SOUL EATER, uses TP to do massive damage. Somewhere in the order of 2x - 2.5x damage. I forgone the weapons quest for AKIKO's FRYING (THWANG !!) PAN.
Wonder what the SINOW's PARTS would yield.
