Sorry about last week's no-post, but I'm afraid it's going to be the same this week. I've started a new job and I'm still trying to figure out how to make time for A.Y.E, so please bear with me for a bit. We now return to your regularly scheduled lack of posts.

No problem at all :)
I recently discovered your blog and was very happy to see that we share interests in many games - and in Linux. I've been using PCLinuxOS fulltime for several months, so your blog is now on my regular weekly reading schedule. Post when you can, and don't worry about skipping a Thursday if you have to. Your excellent writing is worth the wait.
Hey, thanks for the compliment. Always nice to hear from a fellow Linux gamer. I definitely have no plans to abandon A.Y.E, I just need to shift some things around so I have more time for it.
You never clarified whether you played AO on Linux ever. I used to play it for awhile on Windows, and have downloaded the client and patches. Just haven't gotten around to applying ALL the darn patches one at a time (under wine of course).
Yeah, I've successfully played AO on Linux under Cedega. I'm not sure about Wine.
If you're looking to do so, there's a weird trick you need to do to get the patcher to work. You should find it easy enough searching though the official AO forums. If you're just copying over from a Windows install it should work fine without the trick though.

Again, thanks.
