Noah's great grandson and mighty hunter before God? Ruler of Babel, Erech, Accad, and Calneh. Architect of the Tower of Babel?
I don't see how that's related.

Bugs Bunny was the first one to use this as an insult. He was mocking Elmer's hunting ability in the same way one would call a really stupid person "Einstein".

Just going to take a moment completely off-topic to congratulate you for that, I absolutely had NO IDEA about this and was always curious about this expression's origin (not native to english myself)

. Most do think it comes from greenday or which they were called -_-.

I don't think the Crystal Tower from Final Fantasy III is suppose to be the tower of babel. In FFIV there is a dungeon called Tower of Babil which is a play on words of the tower of babel.

From Final Fantasy Wiki:
"The Tower of Babil is named for the Tower of Babel from a story from the book of Genesis in the Old Testament/Torah, as well as other various ancient documents. The story tells of how early humanity united together to build a great tower that would extend to the heavens so they could see God. However, God destroyed the tower, scattered humanity throughout the world, and confused their language, so that they could never again unite to challenge God's authority."

"The Tower of Babel is mentioned as one of the wonders in Final Fantasy Tactics. It bears the following description:

A legendary tower that extends to the heavens from deep below the earth. Also called the Tower of the Colossi, this mighty spire withstood the Cataclysm, and is a priceless remnant of ancient civilization. "

Zones don't have to be pretty at the start, just give me challenging content that relies more on skill than gear.

Ust to run night raids with 300 plus people and had a blast. Still no raiding comes close to eq.

Yeah right, EQ raiding was horrendous, you're just looking through nostalgia glasses. (I do that often myself.) You really think people would be happy with 300 people attacking the same boss and then only 1 person out of that 300 getting anything out of it at all? Dear god, the amount of QQ that would cause SCARES me.

I think Crystal tower will give us enough to do.

I like that I will have somewhere to get get geared before I even start atempting bahamut.
