    NCAA Tournament Challenge

    Holy lol, that guy is hilarious. My big loss today was Wisconsin who I had going to the Elite 8 and losing to Arizona. So far I've lost two Sweet 16 teams, Pittsburgh yesterday and Wisconsin today so I'm still looking pretty good on my bracket unless Georgetown blows this 2-15 match up lol...

    NCAA Basketball 2012/13

    We played bad for a bit but that team was always there. We beat Louisville at Louisville, they're the top #1 seed, we then dominated them in the third game we played but ended up playing it because we played 4 games in 4 days. We beat Georgetown. Our losing streak was against Louisville and...

    NCAA Tournament Challenge

    Darn I missed this thread apparently, unless I started my group first, I'm not quite sure. Anyway I've only had one team lose today and that was Pitt. I had Pitt beating Gonzaga in two days too. Syracuse wins it all! Let's. Go. Orange.

    NCAA Basketball 2012/13

    The Syracuse shit is just someone causing drama again at the start of the tournament. Obviously there is something shady going on, but as I said before shady things are happening at most of these big schools, there's no doubt about it. Fab Melo, I heard the guy talk, he could barely speak and...

    NBA : 1992 Dream Team vs. 2012 Dream Team

    I think the 1992 team has the game. James is great, Durant too, they are also built differently than the guys on the other team. With that said, the 1992 team has so many good big guys, Robinson, Ewing, Malone, Barkley. I seriously doubt that James and Durant are going to have their best...

    It's outrageous really. It's so obvious that the guy is still doing shady things yet it's allowed to go on. I don't think anyone who follows and enjoys college basketball, well other than Kentucky fans, thinks that Kentucky is running anything even close to a clean program. Of course they aren't...

    Shroud Of The Avatar - Shit Went Persistent

    How did those guys make that happen? You act like they were the ones creating and advancing the technology behind the actual work that they did (creating video games). Maybe I'm missing something but I don't think that's the case. If anything you should be thanking the hardware makers of the...

    Shroud Of The Avatar - Shit Went Persistent

    I can't believe so many people drank that dirty-space-hippy-nerd's kool aid. Kickstarter does seem to be abused somewhat by these "famous" people. Most of them aren't lacking funding or any such thing, they're just looking for the easiest and safest way to explore their ideas. Which in most...

    Path of Exile

    I like City of Sarn because it's such a fast and efficient reset. You don't need to backtrack one bit, you just run and kill, run and kill, it's perfect and just like Ledge and Felshrine. Whereas farming Docks you always have to backtrack from the dead ends, it's much harder to reset and...

    NCAA Basketball 2012/13

    I agree that Kansas has a rough road, so does Louisville. Kansas has to play North Carolina or Villanova in the second round, that's rough already. Then after that they have to deal with Michigan and possibly Georgetown or Florida. I think Kansas has the toughest bracket. Louisville has a tough...

    My Elite Eight and Final Four:Louisvillevs. Duke - Michigan vs.Florida- Wisconsin vs.Arizona-Syracusevs. Miami For bigger upsets I have Pittsburgh beating Gonzaga in the Round of 32, and I have California beating UNLV due to their home court advantage (which won't help against Syracuse!). I...

    NCAA Basketball 2012/13

    The refs were terrible and cost Syracuse the game. Perhaps the best team won but the best team tonight did not fucking win. You faggot "cards" were riding us donkey style for the majority of the second half with no calls at all. The fact is Louisville was being dominated before the refs...

    NCAA Basketball 2012/13

    I saw that, it was ridiculous overall. Of course the refs shouldn't have given the game away like that but Richmond did a lot of stupid shit that deserved to be punished too. The guy pushing the guy to the ground on that free throw for example, that was simply uncalled for and should have been...

    NCAA Basketball 2012/13

    Yeah man those refs today were the worst. Bad calls in addition to bad play nearly cost us the game, luckily we built that massive lead thanks to Southerland shooting lights out and were able to hold onto it. Carter-Williams came up big after missing those free throws too. Triche had another...

    SimCity

    If a game is broken and incomplete then why shouldn't it be returnable? I haven't purchased this game, mainly because of their idiotic beta testing system and now the terrible reviews, but I feel that it's more than acceptable for people to return it based on the state that it is apparently in...

    Who is soloing in the 1 week group race? The only people soloing are those doing the Kripparian challenge. Anyone else who is playing purely solo won't be anywhere near the top of the ladder. You should also note that all of the group races end with people at higher levels than in solo races...

    The Documentary Thread

    I watched 'Kumare' recently. It's about a guy who transforms himself into a "Guru" and tries to influence people. What the actual point of his film is I don't know, he doesn't seem to want to make fun of these people, at least not most of them, he genuinely seemed to care and worry about how...

    2013 Oscar Nominations

    He acted with Anthony Hopkins in 'Legends of the Fall' and 'Meet Joe Black', he also did 'Seven' with Morgan Freeman and Kevin Spacey. I don't think that he was clearly out of place with any of those three. Brad Pitt has done a lot of quality work in my opinion, from 'A River Runs Through It'...

    Are you guys sure that group and armor IIQ doesn't apply to maps as well? I don't recall ever reading that (or hearing that in the video) but I suppose it's possible. Based on my own experience though, doing maps solo I've run out of maps several times now and I played an old dual totem build...

    Path of Exile

    I've come to the conclusion that they need to add a "/players x" command a la Diablo II. Grouping in this game is pretty terrible, it gets very laggy very quickly, the ninja looting is just plain retarded, there's no control for group leaders. They either need to add a "/players x" command or...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Yeah agreed. I think that Diablo III with a controller would be a lot of fun. Although I play a Whirlwind Barbarian so it seems extremely logical for that class and spec, hold down a button to WW and swirl the analog around in a circle, sounds much better than making a bunch of circles with my...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I remember playing the original Diablo on the original Playstation and it was a lot of fun. We mainly played it because we only had 1 computer in the house and as such we weren't able to play together on the PC version. Honestly I don't remember much difference between the PC and PS versions, I...

    JJ Abrams to direct new Star Wars movie

    JJ Abrams is terrible. I haven't seen the Star Trek movie but I saw Super 8, pure garbage. I also know of his prior work and all of it just seems like pure nonsense to me. Totally uninteresting. They should get that Verbinski guy to direct it. He can make fun films which is what Star Wars...

    Wii U

    Stop what? I wasn't flaming you or anything like that. I was bullying FPS console games a bit because I don't see anything new or innovative in them and those games are top sellers. I really don't see the appeal of FPS console games. And since sales were being discussed in the thread it seemed...

    Wii U

    I'm not aware of many Xbox games to be honest but I was referencing sales, which is what you guys were discussing. FPS games are simply what sells on those consoles. There's only one Xbox/PS game that I wished I could have played and that was Dark Souls, which I did indeed get the chance to...

    Wii U

    That's sad to hear about the Wii U sales, I hope it picks up for sure. Of the last generation of consoles the Wii was the only one I personally purchased, that's after buying a Dreamcast, PS2, Gamecube, and Xbox from the previous generation. Honestly the whole hardware wars thing doesn't...

    5 Best Games of All Time

    Planescape: Torment is still completely playable. I've played it fairly recently, in the past couple of years or so, and the graphics aren't even noticeable at all. Of course if you are big on graphics then I'm sure that your opinion would be different but the graphics have no impact on the...

    Path of Exile

    You can make the sockets of an item any way that you like. Of course the chance of doing it quickly lessens as you need more sockets linked and colored but I have socketed and linked several rares that I needed to use at the time for a pretty cheap amount. In general it's very easy to get 3...

    Path of Exile

    Granites are just random drops, they are level 27 so I assume they can drop in any 27+ zone or from any level 27+ monster. I don't think they are available as quest rewards or anything like that unless they are in Merciless Act 3 as that's the only place that I haven't been.

    Path of Exile

    Yeah a group would definitely make things easier, the main difficulty is that I'm the only target lots of times considering how squishy the minions are. I think I'm going to spec into more life and run more Armor then try again. I have about 6 Life nodes in fairly easy reach atm I believe...

    Path of Exile

    Reduced Mana is pretty expensive, I think I sold all of the ones I picked up from leveling for a couple of Chaos each, maybe more sometimes. Lightning Warp you can probably get for next to nothing I'm sure. So right now I'm still stuck on Merciless Vaal. I ran up there early on, maybe...

    Path of Exile

    I didn't consider the quality of the auras gems also increasing their radius, seems like quality gems combined with high level gems would be plenty. Right now with only gems leveled to a mid 60s requirement my minions often times go out of their range, that's a good suggestion to spec into it as...

    Path of Exile

    I agree 100% on the loot issue. Half of the time my click on the item doesn't even work, I'm not sure if others have this problem as well but I don't think that it's a lag or latency issue. Playing in a group is generally just a bad experience for me. All of the ability effects going off all...

    Path of Exile

    I agree that totems are by far the most powerful thing that I've used. My totem Templar (that I converted from a melee Lightning Strike/Sweep Templar) is around level 70 and it's so easy to just sit back and let the totems kill things. Simply toss a couple of curses around and then run in to...

    What's your luckiest kill or saved by the skin of your teeth moment?

    I raided in Everquest as a tank and in World of Warcraft as well so I had a lot of close calls and joined the "purple club" several times as well. Those were really fun games but it wasn't only me involved in the lucky kills and saved by the skin of my teeth moments, no. Those moments that...

    Path of Exile

    Agreed on the lack of aoe for melee classes. While I was leveling up I would swap to a shield if I felt that I needed extra resists or defense and not being able to use Sweep just killed my overall dps. Sure single target was fine using Lightning Strike but the lack of aoe is very clear looking...

    Path of Exile

    Yeah the 40% reserve seems pretty extreme. I do have a good amount of mana though, I might be able to do Purity-Clarity-Discipline if I pick up a few +mana% talents. I think I have 550-600 mana right now, of which Clarity and Discipline eat maybe 400? So I guess it's possible with some passives...
