On a lighter note....

Post by Dangus »

Does anyone else think that The Gaurdian looks a LOT like G.W. Bush? Seeing how Garriot is a Texan, could there be a link?

I know the Guardian is a bad dude, but let's not say anything we can't take back :)

I've always thought Richard Gariott was British!

What I read somewhere: RG is from Texas, and raised in a wealthy family. Because he had a cultured accent, kids at his school nicknamed him 'Lord British' (probably in a teasing way).

Garriot IS British, but he's lived in Texas for eons now.

I have to agree with DrCode on that one, cause LB wrote it himself in a self-biography (or whatever u call those things) on the Ultima Collection CD.

Pagan was one of the places the Guardian conquered before he set his sites on Britannia and New Sosaria (the Serpent Isle)
