Please take the time to post a quick reply with who you think is the better BG1 character out of Branwen or Yeslick.
My vote goes to Yeslick.

And some people liked Edwin too.. And I liked Kivan.
And back to the topic I prefer Branwen, mosly since I hate Yeslicks name. |

Agreed, although a lot of people liked Minsc and Imoen, and while many people (though not me!) complained about Jaheira, she came back for the second game. |

Not that Yeslick didn't but I liked Branwen's better.
I can say that the reaction to Yeslick on various internet forums could be described as "indifferent". He was a cordial enough character, but unexciting, so no one ever seemed to want to talk about him. |

Wow, this is honestly the biggest bump I've ever seen anywhere on the 'net, and I've been trolling on-line since late '95  . |

I doubt I'll get an answer to this, but...better in what way?
I used Branwen more often, but that was mainly because she appears earlier in the game than Yeslick (much earlier), and by the time you find Yeslick, most people have already "invested" in the party members they already have. Party NPCs always level up in the background before you get them, so when you encounter them they will be on par with the rest of your party. But that also means you don't get to develop them the way you would want to.
Viconia can be a problem for heroic characters, because like all evil-aligned party members, she leaves in a huff if your reputation goes above 18. |

I would say Yeslick - particularly because as I had a good alignment party and a rep of 19/20 Branwen kept complaining about not being warrior born or something... |

Oddly enough (and I never understood it myself), but it is known as both "Thank you" and Thankyou", both are recognised as being acceptable.
....or maybe theres a bit of cheese stuckundermyspacebar?! |

Now you two have completely ****ed the thread up. No-one will post on it now because the initial meaning has been forgotten. Also, it does seem rather stupid that you think this thread is useless, but you still waste your own time replying to it three times, two of the posts being much longer than it would have been should you have just posted a name!!!

What happened to the  ?
By the way, please notice that this is the FIFTH time I post in this thread. That is just horrible.

Maybe you did not vote but taking your discussion in the other thread into consideration, you choice is pretty obvious, right?
Did I say Kitty? How silly, I could not possibly have said so. Honestly...that was not me, right? I mean...why would I ever say such a thing?

If you're not why do you bother to write a long ****ing post telling me your not in twice the time it would have taken you to say your favourite?
TDM
I did not mean that you should not have posted it. My point was that until the Gnome Who Wants To Rule The World showed up, the results were pretty obvious: 1 for Yeslick, 1 for Branwen.
I apologize if you took offense - which you clearly did.
