Abel writes almost as fast as I do. thinking
I knew that typing class would pay off!

Do they even have an optional typing class in high school anymore?

Take care,
Abel

When i was still in high school 6 or 7 years ago, it was considered a pre-requisite for various computer electives, though I managed to convince them to let me bypass that since I could already type pretty fast, even if I don't know how to type properly.

Actually, if the Grievou story will be in Insider 86 than it wont be out until mid to late January, no ? Insider 85 will be the issue that it out at the end of November.

Touche. It'll be the anniversary since the Mando piece, which is kinda neat.

Take care,

Thanks for answering my question, Abel. You truly are a god of the EU... The Mandalore and Dark Forces articles were pure genius. I was amazed how you were able to combine so many story arcs together in such a clever way.

Once I heard you were the one given the privilege to fill in Grievous's history, I new I wouldn't be disappointed.

Any chance you canonized Grievous making N-K "Necrosis" from SWG using one of those less fortunate Padawans from General Grievous before Necrosis went rogue and escaped to the caves of Kashyyyk? wink

Galaxies, for being such a *huge* wealth of information, hasn't really been used that much. We really need some more Galaxies references.

happy

It is surprising. It may have to do with the sprawling nature of the game.

Take care,

Yeah. There are tons of references in there, from Lord Nyax to Oleg Grek. While some of it may not be canon (cloning centers and all that), there are still a lot of opportunities for in-continuity references. And now that HK-47 is in... devil

I applaud you for including a Necrosis reference.

applause happy
