Escapist – Quest For Glory
by John Walker on Feb.04, 2006, under The Rest
I was thinking about how weird it is that in every RPG, strangers come up to your character in the street and ask you to do their personal chores. So I decided to find out what would happen if I did that to people. And the Escapist were willing to publish it.

John made Fark.com with this one. I think that’s the height of fame.

Did anyone recognise you?

WHERE ARE THE PICTURES? They demanded.
Genius stuff, John. I can see why you didn’t let it what was going to happen leak out, or you’d still be doing my shopping.
Do you think it would have gone differently if you’d tried it a few miles down the road in Glastonbury?

That’s utterly, fantastically brilliant. A photo of John in full wizardly attire would’ve been the icing on the cake…
