Yeah, I didn't think that would work. Check out the Chefelf main page to see the up to date ranking. This morning I was number 59!

Or, alternately, you could slither on over to Chefelf's Statndings page at proggres quest. Everyone on it has one.

Why did you have to bring this up? It fills my heart with despair. You see, one fine morning, I decided to go check on how progress quest was going. Level 59, eh? Not bad.

Then the next morning I checked again. This time Progress Quest was not open. "Oh," I figured silently in my mind, "one of my now ill-fated siblings must have closed it. Or perhaps it was one of my parents, in which case they are even more ill-fated. All will soon be well. Sweet revenge is so close that I can almost, nay, I CAN feel it."

Unfortunately, I had figured wrong. Horribly wrong. I decided that the wisest course of action would be to first open progress quest so as not to miss out on any more invaluable exp. That went fine. I clicked "load game". THAT went fine. I clicked on my save file. All was well. Then I clicked "open".

The gears of the universe slipped. At least thats how it felt to me. I received some sort of daemonic error message, obviously sent by Satan himself. I froze for at LEAST 46 hours. This was unfathomable.

Progress Quest + Not Working = Does Not Compute

I tried everything. By that I mean that I tried to load my game repeatedly. Like 400 times. Didn't work. But the answer was nearby. I had that feeling in my bones. You know the one. The one that just screams at you, "THE ANSWER IS NEARBY!!!"

And it was. I had the wrong equation. The correct one was as follows:

Progress Quest / Not Working = No More Progress Quest

I had foolishly assumed that every operation is one of addition in mathematical equations. That, my friends, is the mistake of a first grader. Don't ever make it. Unless you're a first grader.

But uh... Yeah. Curse you for bringing up Progress Quest. It never fails to make me cry. Cry like only a newborn babe can.

You can't just reload your save game in a new installation of PQ? You should try. If not, start over... it's tons of fun to build your character up again. Think of the fun times you had killing 3 teenage cheese elementals and then selling their gel for 10 gold pieces!

I don't think that'll do it. I can load my brothers file. His name is Grumdrig. That's the DEFAULT NAME for god's sake! Why can't he be a little more original? But I figure, since I can load his save file, or make a new game, but not load my save file, the problem probably lies in the save file itself. That's what I figure, anyway. I'm way too lazy even to give it another thought. That said, adieu!

I am number 812. I wish I was lower though. My stupid computer once didn't save when I closed Progress Quest, and I lost like 2 levels! It was horrible!
