I thought you meant F5 for what all ATOTers use it for...refresh. It's the 7th button my mouse.

Been playing since it came out, and I still find new places to explore.

Try not to cheat, it will make your game last a whole lot longer.

I suddenly thought of the emacs adventure game:

Dead end
You are at a dead end of a dirt road. The road goes to the east.
In the distance you can see that it will eventually fork off. The
trees here are very tall royal palms, and they are spaced equidistant
from each other.
There is a shovel here.
>pick up shovel
I don't understand that.
>take shovel
Taken.
>eat shovel
You forcefully shove a shovel down your throat, and start choking.

You are dead.
You have scored 0 out of a possible 90 points.

stupid dumb microsoft keyboards have the f lock keys which replace the F keys with shortcuts, so unknowingly, my f lock was off, so my F5 was replaced to close, so it closed firefox everything i wanted to refresh a page.

ugh, so annoying.

Get a thumbtack and superglue it to your F5 key. (pointy side up obviously) This will reduce that urge. :p

Interesting. That's how I get back to page 1 if I have drilled down through several pages of a topic. Never thought of it as a way to refresh.

I assume there is no difference in those two commands, if you are already on page 1.

I really like a good extra sharp cheddar. Tillamook FTW!

Indeed. If I had a block of it, I would take a fat bite out of it. It's that good.

I also enjoy a fresh slice of swiss with a little yellow mustard on top.
