Watch it Pixi will burn you like no other.......

Somehow you strayed and lost your way,
and now there'll be no time to play,
no time for joy,
no time for friends
- not even time to make amends.
You are too naïve if you do believe life is innocent laughter and fun.

Educational. Yeah.
Did anyone think about the language part? Cantr gives peaple who studied a language but still need to practice a perfect opportunity to interact with people in that language. How many people haven't studied a language but never put it into practice?
Personally, I used to be fluent in German. But I recently started a char in the German language area, and damn, much has been simply forgotten. This is a perfect opportunity to get that much needed practice in a fun way.
Besides, I can see the cultural differences again between Dutch and German people. Bickering and arguing are really a typical Dutch trait.

Life is fun. Play naked with Psycho-Pixie.

Okay it time for Lone Wolf to tell the truth
This was kind of a test that a former teacher told me I should put on here, I was trying to advertise Cantr II in a school. He wanted me to start this thead and wait to see how many people vote "No"
Well now that there are more vote today than there was yesterday, I'll tell you the answer.
For all of you who voted "No", you should keep in mind, you are always learning something from everything you do. Even if you are doing something for the 100th time (IE Begging for minutes to reset) you are still learning how to do it more efficiantly. Basicaly if you aren't learning you are dead. Though you may have none that you were learning something, you did learn.
Even though people voted "No" that's fine, that's just their opinion and they shouldn't be faulted, they just may not have noticed they were learing something because they were having too much fun playing the game.
So thanks to this thread, my former teacher is going to let me come to his class and show the kids the game and how it works, even to discuss the Capital Rule. Don't worry these "kids" are in grades 10 - 12. I don't think we need a bunch of 7 year olds fighting on Cantr. We got enough of that.
Right Brandon lol
