No I haven't. As of late however, I think her hunger is getting to her. I unfortunately ran out of cat food, but have been feeding her some tuna I had in the cabinet. She seems to enjoy that and I mash it up such that it doesn't cause her too much pain and she is eating. Now all I have to do is wait for the vet to call me back and it's surgery time. I just am preparing myself to cringe at the price. But no matter what it is, I will have it done. To have her put to sleep over this would be way out of the question in my opinion.

Thanks for the advice Fragony. :)

Just found out that I did not get accepted to the program I applied to in Norway. Ah well, was expecting to not get in though.

Bad luck Hooah :(

Random thought: Makes me kinda sad that this place seems dead now. Yet I keep seeing long term users. Is it this place or just total war?

At least the emoticons are cool

Came for the game, stayed for the faces.

Thanks, I kinda expected to not get in, the place was very, very selective when it comes to international students, almost as selective as the Ivy League schools.

Anyways, the TW community is bustling, its just here which is failing. A lack of a mod scene here plus the spectacular launch failure that was Rome 2 really hurt us.

I would have put it further back than Rome's launch. Though I don't really remember that far back, was Rome's launch that bad?

I remember Empire was pretty bad.

Still sad you didn't get in, you're a good guy Hooah :)

Wasn't .org the most popular fan-forum about TW? What happened and it was surpassed by twcenter?

Yup, in the Rome 1 and Medieval 2 days we were neck and neck with the TWC with activity. But then ETW came out and the modders just did not come to us, Im not really sure why, but they stayed at the TWC and no mods really came here. So thus started our long decline. We werent getting new members, and as members moved on in their lives, our population declined. To be fair, at first we were not so hospitable to new members, forcing them to post a certain number of times in the entry forum before they could join the rest of the forum. This drove away a lot of new members unfortunately.

EDIT: I would say the biggest blow from Rome 2 was that it was being trumped as our big return on these boards, and we were really hoping to bring back old players who got interested again in the games, but they were quickly driven away due to how bad the release was.
