A recent spree of Guerilla Gardening has rendered citizens of GNE both lemonless AND bananaless. GNE-ers woke up this morning to find all Jungle and Firefield tiles completely covered in Apple Trees, clogging the floor slots and preventing the cultivation of the native Banana and Lemon producing species. Result: The entire ecosystem of GNE was thrown into a horrific tailspin ...

Coming to a theatre near you in 2003 2004.

In November 2002, the first test screenings of Ludicorp's big project Gameneverending were a success.
However, lots of problems still had to be solved.

When Ludicorp finally found a new producer, hopes went up. The audience waited patiently for updates and the monkeys were listening.

If you haven't been to GNE chat lately, you have been missing a lot. Old timers have been coming back, and we have gained new members contributing clever and insightful topics. My (current) favorite is 'Fear & Loathing in the Magic Kingdom' - thanks to glyph, it was a very lively chat.

The devs have answered our prayers, and added some new features, such as a changeable & more visible away status for players, additions to contact's status options, and an 'ignore' that blocks IMs and chat posts made by the offending person for the player that initiated it.

So drop by, check out the spiffy tools, and kick back a bit with old friends while making new ones. Weekends are especially jumpin'. Hope to see you there!

You are Connected.
Welcome. Thanks for trying it out.

Loli: But you know what? YOU are answering me.
You last message was not received (b/c you seem to be the only one here).
Loli: So... I could conclude that my message *was* received, because it elicited a response.
You last message was not received (b/c you seem to be the only one here).
Loli: You answered, therefore you exist. I am not the only one here.
You last message was not received (b/c you seem to be the only one here).

*Sigh*

Could you guys at least fix the 'bot's grammar?

An incredibly in-depth and professional interview with Yeoz:
