Special question to all the veteran DS fans!

There's also a poster using the name akhet.  My Egyptology isn't the strongest so I looked it up and found that it's one of their seasons, or a hieroglyphic meaning "horizon".

Em hotep, Per'ankh!

so cool to meet a major!!  Well, i am planning on double majoring, egyptology and a life science.  I have just started school though, just had my first year.  I start middle egyptian in the fall - i am very excited but still scared :D

I haven't yet said welcome. However, we were on the board at late night/early morning together. I am sure you enjoyed the Phoenix storyline dealing with Laura Collins. All the plots that involve the past are my favorite ones-1795, 1897, 1840RT.

I was surprised to see people on late at night here. It is cool

Well, some of us oldtimers have trouble sleeping. We're up at all hours...then sleep all day! LOL

Hi Perankh!  Welcome!

Sorry I didn't get a chance to welcome you sooner, but the last couple of days I was running late and was frantically reading everything as fast as possible to catch up and didn't want to stop to do posts of my own!!

As a newcomer, I hope you don't find too many spoilers here.  Most people are good about spoiler warnings, but sometimes in the midst of discussions of one topic, a lot of items from various storylines get to be discussed.  It will certainly be fun to get your reactions as you see it all for the first time.

Hi Perankh,  Im a night owl so Im always on here late.

As for the best storyline. Well my favorite has always been the 1795 episodes. There are still many more good ones coming up though. .   Just wait until 1897 rolls around with such interesting characters such as Quentin, Magda & Count Petofi, I guarentee you'll be hooked!

thanks for all of the info all and for the welcome

Hi Perankh, welcome! Not a nightowl myself, have to get up and take my little girl to school early in the morning. I agree with Brian, the best is yet to come on Dark Shadows. Stay tuned!
