Paper Lane

Skim through glossy black & white pages of posed/faked/cheerful smiles...

Hi! Remember me? I sat next to you in the Seaweed =)

hello all wonderful people! its been an honor and privilege for me to be playing alongside so many smart people. see you all! in one way or another!

Hmmm, I'm tempted to write the obvious REM reference, but I'm going to avoid that. Rather, R.H.T.S. B.F.F. (raise hell this summer. best friends forever). Stay sweet, I'll see you this summer. Love you like a sister.

Heheh. Remember! That time! Remember that time when we drank absinthe? Yeah, and then we smoked all that mash? Remember? And remember when after that, all that funk was dropped? And we snorted genomes and activiated care bears all night long? I remember that time. It was *cool*. Y.B. + Mina 4 3v3r!! Stencilton High football rulz!

I'm gonna miss you guys! *hugs all around*

We will meet again in the beta...

This game need good memory which seems that I dont but as Nietzsche said:
"The advantage of a bad memory is that one enjoyes several times the same good things for the first time."
so I m enjoying myself a looooot . 8-)

Looking back to a wonderfull time on this beta :) All the desire camping, all the genome making and of course chatting with all you nice folks :o)
Looking forward to see all of you in the real game!

ah Nostalgia.. I wish I were what I was when I wished to be what I am.

I was the quiet kid in class who nevertheless everyone seemed to know.

I will see you all in the Big Game.

Short and sweet.

I will miss this version

I will see you all on the other side!

Stencilton H1g|=| Hakz0rs R00l!!@##$

Pioneers we are, and pioneers we'll stay
As we go on playing day after day.
The times we've shared, drunk or not,
Or the lovely cultural melting pot;
I'll miss you all, and at the end of the day
I wave goodbye as we part our ways,
Adios, adieu, bye bye, and love you;
I hope to see all of you in the big game too!

We go together, like ra-ma la-ma la-ma ka dinga kading-a-dong
Remember Stenciltown forever, as shoo-wop shoo-waddy-waddy yippity boom-de-boom
Chang-chang changity-chang shoo-bop that's the way it should be wahoo yeah

Great fish piles in the night, and wombats shining bright, pie up in heaven above
Or at the Bentown dance, where you can find romance
Baby, it might be lu-u-u-ove

ra-ma la-ma la-ma ka dinga kading-a-dong
shoo-wop shoo-waddy-waddy yippity boom-de-boom
chang-chang changity-chang shoo-bop
dip da-dip da-dip doo-wop da-doo-dee-doo
boogedy boogedy boogedy boogedy shooby shoo-wop shoo-wop
sha-na-na-na-na-na-na-na yipity-dip-de-boom
A-WOP BOMA LOO-MOP, A-WOP BAM BOOM!

Overall it was a wonderful time, with many laughs. Hope to see many of you on the other side.

I will miss spending my days and nights with all you lovely people! Hopefully, I will see all of you in the real game.

There once was a life before beta,
Lets toast with a chilled Margarita,
Let's see who we'll meet,
It's all been so sweet,
But neext time its gonna be neater.

I shall miss you and the things we used to do. How we used to laugh together, cry together, console each other. The nights you lulled me to sleep.

Tonight Pablo Neruda can write the saddest lines...
Write for example, the night is shattered and the blue stars shiver in the distance...
...
...
Love is so short forgetting is so long...

never before have i met so many with multiple personalities. it was an experience i shall never forget.

thanks to all those who made browns with me; it was a bonding experience like no other.

to yogi: i will never find another dealer quite as sweet.
to eleanor: you're the most generous beatles personality ever.
to helcat: you kicked my ass and wiped the floor with it.
to flippy: never has another inspired such nausea with mere words.
to inspy, selva, and yeoz: thanks for watching my back.
to jean: you know.

and to the rest of you lovely people: thank you muchly, and i hope you got more sleep than i did. it's been fun.

As the twilight approaches,
Gazing over the landscape with tear in the eye.
Ahh Sweet Instancia,
Born of a time before the world,
Your life was short and bright.
I shall harbour the memories.
Goodbye to those who are lost.

I'm the kid who came in at the end of senior year, so none of you know me. :) But I still look forward to seeing (most ;)) of you itrg. Thanks to all of you who were generous and helpful; you made the game fun.

This was way more fun than high school. I will miss those not getting a pioneer account, and can't wait to see the rest of you ITBG! WH00T, Stenciltonians!

I only wish I had come earlier. I look forward to getting to know you all better this summer! Yep, these are my kind of humans.

i was (and forever will be) the little radioactive green rodent w/ the bloodshot eyes (too much champagne IRL?) who camped with you for desires, fished with you for blues and sweated in the desert for yellows. Remember the mountain of fish w/ the creme brule moat? That was mine, until someone came by and consumed it all at one gulp.

'squeek'

Oh painful waiting! how long will they hodl me away from you all. I wish very much to see you all in the beta tests to ease the pain of loosing you all for so long. Yogi> you were the best neibor i could have asked for Mina> so great was the sheep Loli> <3 My luv Yeoz> who everyone wants to be... Inspy> the most intelectual person iv ever met. in a good way Kitana> I finally got to be a good mentor! DeathsWill> oh sweet love i have for my minion thanks for covering my ass And you will all be pissed at me if i mention everyone i want to so all i can say is thank you all. Tear in satans eye oh the burn of love. ~eric~~~(_____>

Oh and thank everyone who supported my new economy!(soul buying/selling) Kad, VictorB, Desi!, the end of the world is nigh, Capodistria. thank you all for starting something new!

It is not enough to thank individuals now, I must thank everyone. We have dreamed together and that is a precious thing these days. One way or another, I hope to see all of you in the next world or the Real World.

Oh, wow. We had A Time, didn't we? I'm not going to say I'll miss you, because I KNOW I'll see you this summer. Probably with Outis and Trad and Yogi and Yeoz and all the rest of those guys. Ha ha. You and all my girls (Mina, Loli, Selva, Helcat, Serenity, Flippy) make the best memories. Yay! (Let's just all try to forget Mr. G, always giving us the same stupid assignments to 'find another sheet of blue paper'! Ugh. Ha ha.).

Remember folks, this isn't the end, but, the beginning of (the production of) the real game!

Hope to see you all there!

I'll certainly treasure the many hours spent playing this verision with all of you. We've had our fun, and now it's time for all us to stand around and be obliterated by the end of the world. See y'all in the summertime!!!

Here's to GNE in 03 - Let us play... James Holloway

Here's to bigger and better things in the next version.

I won't go name by name, for fear of leaving anyone out, but simply say that you've been a balm, a revelation, a joy, a mountain of laughter, an astonishment--and, I hope, a promise of better things when we meet again. Not soon enough, but eventually. Take care, and I'll look for you when we cross over. . .

After all the eloquence, it really just comes down to friendship and respect. And as someone much smarter than me said, "The time we enjoy wasting, is not wasted time." (Thanks, inspo!) It's been real, and that's saying a lot for a online game, isn't it? My vocabulary is enriched and my world is wider (was there ever a time when I didn't know about pellicle pluckers or purple paper?). Thank you all, and we'll meet on the other side! Be well. Love ya!

This is a lovely place. I own a lovely home outside of Media Shire. Charming...
you have to love online silliness and joy such as GNE. I look forward to hanging with you guys again.

It was a blast! Thanks for all the fish.

Remember when your world was filled with question marks?
Remember when you first got addicted to GNE?

When reading Tom Bombadil's autobiography mattered?
When making a red sheet of paper took one minute, maybe two?

Remember when Ol' Pulpy grew ream upon ream of paper?
The time before notes? When houses cost trillions and quadrillions of shekels?
And GNEs took two people to make? Before the devs lost weight?

Remember when Eglantine instituted a slimeball clean-up campaign at the town dump?
When all the girls lined up for the majick mojo?
Remember Mr. Dawgg? Adidas? Alex Massie? Samantha? Kallesse?
And all those Level 12 and inspoetica jokes?

No?

Well then, remember when we spent dreary days and sleepless nights helping and talking to each other while doing our own thangs? Aspiring for a home to own, eager for the next thing to make?

Remember the company we kept? The things we learned?

I always will.

I'll miss you all! See you ITRG :~)

Although i may not have had a long life here at GNE but i had a great one...from the time that i entered gne...to the time that i wrote this letter(and beyond) i had the best time here, i had people help me out every second of the way. i hope everyone here has had as great of a time as i have...and really really hope that i can see everyone that has been here to be in the real game.

i loved it here, thanks you guys..you really helped.

loves (soo much)
christina!

P.S. thanks Wintermute for the supposedly lifetime supply to electric sheep, and the HUGE pile of mints that people have donated for me, loves yah all! bye...

i had to add this, ?

Don't change! c u later.

PS don't forget Uifz! He was here such a short time but made such a big impact on us all! Stay gay!

This was fun! See you all in the next world. :)

And resisting the temptation to quote REM I quote "Mate Peter", the retro Hungarian singer, and his most popular song:
"Elmegyek, elmegyek, melyik uton indulok meg nem tudom... elhagyom, otthonom, meg a jobaratoktol sem bucsuzom.... "
Hint: elmegyek = i am leaving, figure out the gist of the rest yourself! ;)

I won't resist REM, instead I'll succumb.

I would like to be a world leader pretend but instead here's a reckoning.

See you in the next moral kiosk.

Pilgram

It's been a blast, hope to see you all on the other side, in Bobbleton! I'll miss you all terribly, hope everyone has a rock awesome 5 or 6 next few months without me ^_~ Ludicorp, y'all just keep on kickin' ass while we're gone, you've done a great job so far.
See you in Bobbleton!

Of all the massively multiplayer online games I've played, this is the only one I'll recommend to my friends who play massively multiplayer online games. It's been an honor and a pleasure -- see you all soon.

You may not know me, but I know you are special. Let's continue to surprise each other. Listen for the music on the wind.

Star Light instructs me to write, "Thanx for the memories. . ,"

Thanks for all the fun, friends, help and goodies. I can't wait to see the final version and see all you in it. :) Big virtual hugs. :)

It's been fun, but I've worn out the buttons on three mice with all the papermaking, entitlement transcending, genome examining and so on.

I will miss the days camping out in the woods between intrigue and hysteria in search of desire. I can't believe I made it to level 19. That I did is an indication of how helpful all the people in this nutty world really are.

I won't be back, but my daughter, Hollyrox, will carry on for me.

Whoot! See you in the next world.

Have a great summer!

Remember the time that Billy Griskin gave me an atomic wedgie in gym class, right in front of Sally Driskol?

I've had a ton of fun. See you next year!

It's been fun. Here's hoping the real game is even better!

thanks so much to everyone. i had a tonne of fun. look forward to seeing you all in the big game. from your friendly canadian stenciltonian:

duane faris, aka velveteen goodbar

I hope we have as much fun in the next world as we did in this one. See you all there. greywolf

Thank you for a very touching experience...
and thank you for letting me play!
fondly onward!

I'm not sure what to believe,that this is like a drug, and I'm an addict, what a wonderful waaste of time....Its been fun, maybe I'll make it to the afterlife...Thanx for the memories....I will go through withdrawls now :( :)

I've never had so much fun with people online in my life. It's addictive and it's just the start. I've just started knowing some of you and I hope to know you better ITRG. MRCOILEYES-COREYMILES.

I won't be here next time round :) but it's been great to meet you all. I've never come across such a friendly bunch ;). And I didn't write in AOL talk!
Lot's of LOVE

It's been great to meet very nice, helpful and generous people here in GNE! Wish it were the same in thereal world! I love ya all!!!!!! Mwah mwah. Take care ..... -Kits

It's going to take me a while to figure out what I'm going to do with all the time I'll have if there's no GNE for a while.

Probably reading the blogs of the various new people I've met, and contributing to Paper Lane.

Reflecting back, I don't think I would have been able to get to make a cow, a GNE, or Purple Paper without the help of others. If you helped: +1 karma for you!

One major flaw with the Alpha: It's possible for someone to give you head without asking first. Hopefully this will be fixed ITRG.

i would have you believe that i had an amazing time here. because it would be true it would. hope y'all will be around ITRG.

au revoir tout le monde, merci pour votre hospitalite...

It was a lovely four months. Have a great summer!

this has been one of the kindest, most fun communities i have ever had the pleasure of being a part of. i love you all. see you in the summer! :)

Now the world is ending, I can look back and say it's been great and all you guys who made it that way, thanks! :)

hey you crazy kids, see you all ITRG! i'm looking forward to a lovely future world. Now where's that comet?

Thanks for a virtually natural time, folks!
It's been a month for me, and much fun.
See you when!
