ya know, I think I asked Tara about him onm that day. He'll be missed. Whiffin on him in TC was pretty funny, as he had a ton of Detha.



I knew him to be a great hunter with myself and a few others in his hey day. Please please put a remembrance to him in the same place with K'Pyn, please. Please.

I do hope I was as good a friend to him, as he was me.



Sincerely, Shen.



HWC, George Becker.



P.S. You'll be missed, mightily.

My condolances to friends & family. I didn't know him well, but certainly enough to know he'll be greatly missed.

I am so sorry to hear this. I started playing about the same time Bill/Eyeball played and it wasn't long before we became good friends. We had something in common in that we both have a disability and we're the same age. I actually use the same onscreen keyboard that Bill did. It was also nice to hang out with somebody who typed as slow as me. :-)



We adventured together for years and he also got involved in the basketball pool I'd do every year. I started seeing him less and less until not at all and was really worried. I can't believe he's no longer with us. He was such a nice and generous person within the world of Clan Lord and also had a wonderful sense of humor. I'm sure that reflected his real-life persona as well.



My deepest sympathies his family. Bill was a great person and will be missed.

I didn't know Eyeball that well but anything like this is a sad day :cry:

A statue of eyeball is a nice idea.

I'll use the same statue as for K'Pyn. It would be nice, though, if someone would tell me what to put on the memorial.



Yor: would you mind taking charge of coming up with something nice and appropriate?

Sure, I'd be happy to. However, if somebody else that knew him well has a suggestion I'd be happy to hear it. :D

:( The CL world is small, and losing a member is in a way like losing a family member. I knew Eyeball only in passing but he seemed like a cool thoom. My thoughts are with his family and friends.

Didn't know him. It's stll very sad, though. As claudia said, It's like losing a family member. Except I didn't know him. But still, everyone on Cl is nice, that's a given.

Aye, along the lines of what Claudia said, losing any member of the community is like losing a family member. However losing a beloved clanmate, someone I'd known and had been a friend since my first days clanning, it leaves the heart just that much more empty. I know that I speak for many when I say that whether you knew him as Bill or Eyeball, he will always be in my heart as a good friend.

The deadline for v371 has come and gone, but a statue for Eyeball will be in for v373.



Thanks go to Yor for compiling a nice dedication.
