This is a weird page, also, something seems to be broken with the IP thing:
You address the elk.
It stares vacantly at you.
"It is currently Friday, November 23, 2007 10:07:11 AM."
The heck?
"Your IP address is 127.0.0.1 ."
Huh?
"Your resolution is 1280 x 1024 pixels."
Resolwhatnow? What the heck is up with this creature?
Suddenly its eyes glow red and it fires two red beams of light at you! You burst into flames almost instantly.
You have died!
Your final score is:
000404 Points.
> Start again?
Geez guys, stop dying so early.
You wake up atop a grassy knoll underneath a bright blue sky. Birds chirp in the distance as the sun shines warmly onto your face.
From somewhere nearby the smell of smoke wafts into your nostrils. You sit up and look around, but you can't see the source of the smoke.
Actually, now that you think about it, you don't really know where you are or how you got here. After a quick check you notice all you have on you is your trusty sword and the clothes on your back. How strange.
ou adjust your sword and head down the hill towards the billowing smoke in the distance. At length you come across a well-worn country road that heads in the direction you're heading and you opt to follow it.
Eventually you come across a crossroads where you find a deeply tanned man wearing a grey cloak and a broad straw hat leaning against a signpost. He looks at you and spits a balck wad of chewing tobacco on the ground. Maybe he's a farmer.
"Don't want to go that way kid." He gestures in the direction of the smoke, "Nothing good over there."
You ask him what he means but he just shrugs his shoulders and puts another bit of chaw in his mouth.
The two signs on the signpost the man is leaning against is worn and unreadable, but one arrow points forward towards the smoke and the other points down the path to the right.
Options...
> Forget this guy, his hat is silly. Continue down the road toward the smoke.
Horrified, you turn to flee this ghastly place an are stopped dead in your tracks by a group of armed goblins wielding crude weapons and torches.
One hisses at his mates, "Aye boys, seems we missed one here!"
They charge at you and you draw your sword. You fight desperately and even cut a few of them down, but eventually you are overcome by their sheer numbers.
They douse you in oil and light you ablaze while you're bleeding on the ground from the many wounds you sustained at their hands. The pain is excruciating.
You have died!
Your final score is:
000031 Points.

Told you.

I saw that and fixed it. I really need a plugin for dreamweaver that can spellcheck an entire site. There's no way I'm going to go through 250 pages one by one and spellcheck them all.
Anyway
"News? Huh. You been trapped in a cave for the last few weeks?"
He sees the blank look on your face and sighs, "Kid, country's at war with the stinkin' gobs. Get your head out of your ass and pay attention to what's going on around you."
Options...

"Stinkin' gobs! You know, goblins! Those little green buggers. Word is some master swordsman moved in and took over the whole stinkin' race and is using 'em to siege the kingdom."
Options...
> "The goblins are being led by a human? Why would the they let someone use them like that?
"That's the rumor, but who knows. I know if I was that swordsman I'd of cut down every single one of those little green bastards instead of driving them to war."
He looks up at the sky, "I've got things to do kid, watch yourself, keep asking so many questions and it'll probably be trouble."
Before you can say anything else the man heads off the road and into the trees.
Comments
You drift into a deep sleep. After a long while you...
Options...
> Wake up.
> Toss and turn.
> Snore.
You snore loudly and it wakes you up with a start.
The noise seems to have attracted a large elk. He has gigantic, majestic antlers.
Options...
> Talk to the elk.
> Attack the elk.
> Run from the elk.
You address the elk.
It stares vacantly at you.

"Heads in the direction you're heading"... the phrasing seems awkward here.
The smoke in the distance troubles you and you continue towards it. Before too long you come across a scene that horrifies you.
A small country hamlet is smouldering. Several cottages have been burned clear to the ground and others are charred to the point of collapse.
There are several badly burned corpses spread around the village, some of them look distinctly non-human.
What on earth happened here?
Options...
> Investigate the ruined hamlet.
> Get the hell out of here before whoever did this finds you.
> No one's looking, loot!
Horrified, you turn to flee this ghastly place an are stopped dead in your tracks by a group of armed goblins wielding crude weapons and torches.

You misspelled 'black' as 'balck'.
Oh, and see if he has any interesting news.
Anyway

Pressing the man further on his rather cryptic remark yields nothing, but perhaps he has information to share about some other topic.

So.. see if he has any interesting news.
"News? Huh. You been trapped in a cave for the last few weeks?"
He sees the blank look on your face and sighs, "Kid, country's at war with the stinkin' gobs. Get your head out of your ass and pay attention to what's going on around you."
Options...

There was a reason for that.
"Stinkin' gobs! You know, goblins! Those little green buggers. Word is some master swordsman moved in and took over the whole stinkin' race and is using 'em to siege the kingdom."
Options...
> "The goblins are being led by a human? Why would the they let someone use them like that?
> "That sounds a little far-fetched."
> Ask him about something else.
...There should be another " at the end of that.
"That's the rumor, but who knows. I know if I was that swordsman I'd of cut down every single one of those little green bastards instead of driving them to war."
He looks up at the sky, "I've got things to do kid, watch yourself, keep asking so many questions and it'll probably be trouble."
Before you can say anything else the man heads off the road and into the trees.
