It's good that you don't have to do that if you don't want to.
Interesting college course you're doing. Was this an exam or?
Getting piss drunk and puking is like... the default social interaction here. It was a bit of a damned if you do damned if you don't situation.
Take a wild guess

... you think that's unusual or novel at university? I'm just suggesting if you drink a little less and you won't end up puking. Drunken debauchery without the vomit. It's fun.
It is. I know. I usually do that. I'm a bit taken aback about the patronizing though. Seems a bit unwarranted since it wasn't a very serious comment. Am I getting you wrong here?

Your original post made it sound like you felt that behaviour was an obligation. Coming across as patronizing isn't all that surprising, I suppose, given that I graduated a decade ago (and I thought binge drinking/puking was stupid then, too).
Okay, cool. Again it wasn't a serious comment, specially the fuck college part. It's hard to do disingenuity on the internet.

Looks fantastic. I believe a gnomish rogue is incoming, but someone fell asleep staring at numbers last night.

I told you I needed more information than what you gave me.
He's a buff, tall orc, but he has a pleasant smile. I didn't think you needed it to be THAT detailed.

Skin/eye/hair color. Hair style. Clothing, IF ANY. Scars, tattoos, piercings, etc.
Give me more to work with here. This can't be that hard. :O

Skin: Green
Eyes: Brown
Hair: Black, matted hair
Clothing: I don't know what bards typically wear, but he's got enough money to wear "normal" period clothing, and not some tattered rags.
No scars/tats/piercings.

So no clothes then.
A paladin would be good now I guess.

What class would a psycho-axe-man be? I wanna be one of them.
I want a portrait (they've been looking great, by the way!) but I still haven't decided between a rogue or paladin for my character!
Now you guys have an idea of how long it takes me at character selection screens...
Paladin would be good. So far we don't really have any heavily armored melee characters. We're a pretty flimsy lot.
a barbarian?

Yep, barbarian.
Yeah, it'd be great to have a straight-up-face-puncher like a Paladin.
Though another Rogue could do that as well.
Oh there's already a rogue? Paladin it is for sure! Now I just gotta work on a character history and stuff.

Either is indeed fine. I have your Iberian-inspired nation ready as well. The high-elves Natalie's character come from invaded the south-eastern part of your island a while ago and established fabulous cities, much to your people's chagrin.
Barbarian, or if the crazy is mostly an act, then fighter.

GENIUS!
Beef. <3 If i hadn't already made my decision, I would have decided solely on this. I love when people make puns of my name. :3
Oh thank you! I'm super excited now to make a character. But I guess that means Nat and I might be at odds at first! :O

I was asking for a bard earlier, but you know all these orcs taking our jerbs.
Not only did he make his character before you, but you never actually made a character and don't seem intent on playing.
If we were going by not GAF restrictions I think I would win with regards to time. Also I wasn't exactly being serious, I know I'm not going to take part of the game.

Ok, so it's probably just because I'm watching Psych at the moment but goddamn James Roday would've made a good Spidey like 10 or 15 years ago.
It's pretty slapdash at the moment since I've only been working on it for less than a day. But I was planning on writing up an essay on it later. Or at least how the language is currently. Everything is subject to change!
My favorite features of the language so far are how it lacks gendered pronouns. I wanted to reflect the naturally egalitarian society of these elves. There are also particles or markers at the end of sentences that reflect what kind of sentence it is. I was thinking about how Japanese uses "ka" to create a question, and stretched that further to include particles that mean things like "accusation" or "surprise". I like the idea of having a language where no one confuses a statement for an accusation.
Also, I'm starting to regret making a language that is highly agglutinative. Words are starting to get ridiculously long.
Heodagathaemlethemtal halma hem!
I said I didn't want to drink water!
While I can easily parse it, it looks rather intimidating. D:
