Did you know that Skyrim is a threat to your GPA?

I as well...not a good semester

Did you know that, on PC, you can rotate the world map a bit by holding down right-click and moving your mouse to the sides?

Did you know that, on PC, whenever you can press Enter, you can press 'E' instead?

Did you know that you can disable the archery 'auto-aim' through .ini tweaks so arrows behave more realistically?

Did you know that Console versions have map-rotation too?

Did you know that by pressing the map button while looking your current mission screen it shows where you have to go?

Did you know you must have the Quest selected and active and the mouse preferably hovering over the next task?

Did you know that regeneration enchantments don't work during combat?

Did you know that they actually do but just reduced to near ineffectiveness?

Time for a serious tip: Did you know you can de-nock a prepared arrow by pressing the "sheath weapon" key/button?

Did you know that you can do the same with a spell?

did you know that if you get married your spouse may open up a shop and give you a share of the profits? 100 gold coins a day, which adds up if you dont collect everyday.

Did you know that it adds up the same if you collect it every day but don't spend it?

Did you know that if you want to sell a small number of something from a vendor say 20 out of 400 arrows pressing LB will move it significantly faster to the left and RB significantly faster to the right.

Did you know that if you sell a group of items one at a time you get an XP boost from each one, instead of just once for the whole group?

Did you know if you dont have any quest active and receive a new quest that the game will make that one the active quest

Did you know Daedric Armor is the best Heavy armor set as Dragonscale Armor is the best light armor set you can make

Did you know Dwarves were actually Underground Elfs

Did you know you get more Sneak experience with Sneak Attack than you do by following someone

Did you know you can make Krosis back up off the side of the cliff making it impossible for him to kill you as you stand on the ledge and shoot him

Did you know that you can in fact become a member of an Orc Tribe?

Any good advice on how to do this? I've fought the chief and various other things. Haven't gotten the offer. Maybe because I'm an orc and they already accept me? You might be refering to...

Did you know that one of the main characters of the in-game book "Immortal Blood" is actually in the game and part of a quest?

When I realized that, I was like...holy cow... that's neat!

Did you know that this thread will probably need a part 2 since there seems to be a unknown(mainly me) post limit for threads

Did you know that forum policy calls for locking threads at 200 posts, but that because with the release of Skyrim there are so many very active threads that the Moderators can't keep up? For reference, see the sticky at the top of the General forum http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/724862-forum-rules-and-general-information/page__p__10470780#entry10470780

The main reason for the 200 post limit is that by that time most threads are stale and off-topic anyway. There's a lot of leeway being given because of all the new folks to the forums. A lot of bad behavior is being overlooked but that isn't going to last.

I wouldn't want to be a Moderator on a good day. My heart really goes out to them now.

Did you know that:

-That mounting your horse while being overcumbered allowed u to fast travel again while on said horse

Apparently, you do not know that the "permanent zombie" spell, Dead Thrall, only works on humanoids. Makes me sad too, I know :sadvaultboy:
