At least two variants. Does anyone have another?

Ah, I was confused by your comment, because I haven´t read anywhere that it had been canceled. According to wikipedia they intended from the beginning to go only for a 13 episodes season. They haven´t renewed teh show for a 2nd season, though... yet...

I don´t watch TV either. I don´t even have one. I mainly get my shows from the internet. If I had to wait till a show is aired over here I´d had to wait for about a year. And I prefer to watch everything in English...

Thanks for the heads-up, Nisha.

It´s not over quite yet. There are still two episodes to go. Can´t wait for tonight tomorrow.

Can someone tell me what regional dialect that is? I´m not familiar with all the British dialects...

I don´t get a high score either, but it surely is addictive.

Really, they canceled Wonderland? I didn´t know that yet. The Knave is my favourite character. I love his accent. I hope the main show doesn´t get canceled too. I need my weekly dose of Hook.

I like Grimm, although the 3rd season is a bit weak, mainly because of the German in it. And the Wesen lore mostly being in German and so.

Anyone here watching other fantasy shows like Supernatural, Once upon a Time (in Wonderland) or Grimm?
What do you think about those?

From snowy Canada it went to sunny and warm Austria.

Siberian Pepper and Easter egg.

This sound very complicated to me, sorry. Isn´t it tedious to look up all the rules?
How do you tell your stories when playing? I don´t get that. Do you write them down or just tell each other? What happens if you have to interupt your game? How do you "save" the current status till next time? If that´s possible...

Here is my lair.

Quote from MilkaQ

@ idril: yes, right Karl May is also a good example of overly christian allegories.And i used to love him as a kid! Perhaps i lost some of my innocence ...And i have to state that i'm christian myself, i just can't stand this "my religion is better than yours, my god is the only one who can make you go to paradise" phrases.(they exist in many religions, not only in christianity)

Can´t remember any christian allegories, to be honest, I was in primary school when I read the books. I was more refering to the depiction of native americans. No one would believe what and how he wrote about Indians today, some would probably even feel offended. Maybe it was a bad example....
But I can´t stand overly religious beliefs neither. And to go back to sci-fi again, that´s why I really hated the Ori in the later seasons of Stargate SG-1. On the other side, with the Ori they creatores reacted to current events.

Oh, that´s a nice one. I hope I´ll get it too.

Hello and welcome to the forum.

It´s still down for me...

Danke schön.

Yes, switched to English I can access everything expect the single flower pages and compendium entries.

Ok, here my try of the translation of Nephele's post:

Currently I´m re-reading some old, much-loved cyperpunk books - to be exact THE novels that really kicked off the Cyberpunk genre: Neuromancer, Count Zero and Mona Lisa Overdrive by Wiliam Gibson. And frankly, they are still as entertaining as they were 20 years ago.

Of course I also read the usual writers. I read Tolkien the first time when I was 9 years old, as well as the Cronicles of Narnia and Alice in Wonderland. I´m stil a big Tokien fan today, even if I sometimes wonder, while reading, if the "Silicon Anti-Defamation League" knows about that stuff. More than 20 years of Discworld leave their marks.
I liked Narnia as a child, but I never really fell in love with it.
And Alice... I read the two books years later again and I´m thinking that with mushrooms there is more fun. (I bet the author himself took some. Did you notice how often mushrooms show up?)
My all-time favourites are these three German authors: ETA Hoffman, Michael Ende and Walter Moers. All their books were translated to English, so if someone wants to read some more unfamiliar writers, try them out.

---------------

Zumindest Michael Ende's Bücher (und die Filme): Momo und Die unendliche Geschichte sollten auch im Englischen bekannt sein.

At least Michael Ende´s books Momo and The Neverending Story should be know in English, too. There were also movies.

Nephele: Trau dich nur auch englisch zu schreiben. Egal wie fehlerhaft, es wird sicher keiner Lachen. Ich hab mir in englischen Foren mein Schulenglisch wieder aufgefrischt. Solang du nicht versuchst Sprichwörter eins zu eins zu überstzen kann nix passieren.

I hope exterminans can fix it soon, despite being Sunday.....

Congrats Mia, and welcome to the club.
