Just had to tell someone I’m finally in the top 10,000 at Progress Quest (download [here](http://www.progressquest.com) ). For those who don’t know (I imagine the majority) it’s a ‘Fire-and-Forget’ Role-Playing-Game, the most pointless programme I have ever seen.  
Bye.

I’ve never seen that before. That is great. I especially like the ‘keyboard quick reference’ at the bottom of the ‘Info’ page.

I think I’ll create a character and fire it up now. I’m sure online enough.

So now that I’m hooked, is there anything to do but hit ctrl-b and ctrl-m?
