You know, with all the chaos going on, I don't think we got a chance to congratulate Darke on his second child!
Being a dad is a huge enough commitment, that dealing with a large forum, an active chat schedule, and the occasional hack really might just put some people over the edge. I know it would give me grey hairs and a nervous tic.
Thanks for everything, Darke, and best of luck!
I second the motion! Good luck to Darke!
Good catch, Gil!
Congrats, Darke!! Good luck with the new little one ... seems like yesterday that we had our latest -- now the little-big guy is 10 months old!! The time ... it flies. ;)
And thanks again for BGDF.

Thanks you guys. I really appreciate the well wishes and kind words. Just think, in a couple of months the BGDF will turn two! Wow. Time flies when you're making games (and babies)!
-Darke
Congratulations Michael and to your wife too! Thanks for keeping the site alive.
Yep, Congrats! Enjoy your time, we'll try to take care of your "other baby" while your on "sabbatical."
peace,
Tom
Ditto Darke, thanks for your hard work and congrats indeed!
But how about some details? (Name, sex, weight, length, born with any dice in his/her hands?)
born with any dice in his/her hands?
At first I read this as "born with any dice FOR his/her hands."
I've been looking at my monitor WAY too long today.
