Retiring

I'm going to starve my characters.

School is starting again and playing cantr is a too great distraction for me.

I'll probably also resign as an aspirant programmer due to the lack of effort coming from me.

I'll post a character list when after having them starved.

Um... why not cancel your account? Seems faster...

Anyways, sad to see you go but school comes first. Have a good year, okay? Then come back to the evil that is Cantr...

Peanut, I'm happy to babysit your account for a year.

I'm letting them starve because I don't want to lose the account.

And isn't babysitting against the rules N?

Yeah, this is one of the worst times of the year for school now, all revision for exams and stuff

I might have to cut back a little as well, or alot, it depends how well I keep on top of all my work :cry:

We'll miss you!

If you let your characters starve to keep your account I believe you will still have to pop back in every 3 months to put your account on leave or it will be deleted for inactivity. Someone can correct me on this if I am wrong. Maybe locking them up in a building and having someone feed them ever so often will do the trick. :)

Read what Sparkle said. If you gave me the information about them I'm happy to act zombie-like, only keeping alive and doing some things to further the career of each/goal of each..

I think it was already explained in the avatar thread or somewhere but the girl kicks off her shoe in a jocular manner, most likely planning to pick it up as it lands... But it ends up landing on top of a lorry which takes it away. And all they can do is stare forth, shocked, thinking "how am I gonna walk home with only one shoe"?

It's from a series called Azumanga Daioh, which has never aired in Finland (as far as I know), but of course I had to use my detective skills to figure it out.

There should also be a thread around the non cantr forum with two spoofs from me.

In one superman takes the shoe and in another Son Goku from Dragon ball takes it.

Oh and the one kicking it is an airhead who I think kicks it to see if it falls upside down or normal way down.

Good luck with your schooling, Peanut. Glad to see you have your priorities straight.

Yes, do make sure you continue to put your account on leave ever 90 days or less, or it will idle. And if you can, try to get other charries to feed yours, and maybe they'll still be around come summer, if they're important to you.

You'll be surprised how much you'll regret losing them later, regardless of what you think now. ;)
