Why don't you have a seat over there, we can talk this out.

I saw this video on youtube, I was going to post it on the conspiracy thread, but I guess it's not actually a conspiracy until the US denies it amirite? Video is about a Yugoslavian documentary saying they sold the space technology to the US so they could catch up to the Russians in the 60's.

Vodka and Vitamin water.. might have to give that a shot. I did the vodka and redbull thing in my early 20's and man that would leave you feeling shitty the next day. At least with vitamin water you will be getting essential nutrients >_>

Not sure why this thread is in Screenshot section, unless you are secretly hoping for the life destroying pictures to be posted here and preserved for eternity. If it's just a few pictures of a dudes wang, I don't see how that's a life ruining event. This would be more about the conversation...

I don't watch the weather channel. I hate spoilers.

Wow, I remembered playing that game a long time ago. I don't think I ever beat it. I think my NES would overheat and turn off and I would have to start over. I remember it had an A/B switch on the cartridge and I had no clue what it was for.

I was digging through my storage area yesterday trying to find an old school SNES controller, I want to modify it to work on my computer for emulators because the replica controllers on amazon look so cheap. Anyways Then I found an unopened scars of velious boxed set lol. Old game boxes...

I think the problem here is modern games place all of the difficulty of an encounter in game mechanics. It would be nice if there was a challenge beyond just wait random time frame (or instanced encounter), kill monster with powerful weapons you have farmed up, set clock and repeat. I'm...

When keeping it real goes wrong. Pride fight here and the dude who looks like he just got up off the couch to grab some chips knocks the other guy the fuck out.

There are still a few arcades around. There is one in Huntington Beach called "Nickle Nickle" and all the games are a nickle. That place has hundreds of the old arcade machines (their electric bill must be crazy). Great place for a kids bday party though.

It's kind of an interesting premise I suppose. I have hard time believing there wouldn't be some non-networked part of the technology that could shut down the implants in the event of a "health" emergency and automatically contact a hospital. I'm sure if such a technology existed, there would...

Leave my parents basement, one sec. I need to roll my magic dice. Guess I have to go outside now.

Idk, choosing can be ok in some situations, but in others it's probably not a good idea. It can be so hard to decide >_>

I could see that I suppose. iirc when I played D&D years ago our GM had this rule about not allowing you to wear more than 2 magic rings and one regular piece of magic armor because of a conflict of magic or something like that. I mean otherwise you'd be running around with 10 magic rings and...

I don't know anything about Erikson's story. Although, I do think most authors are capable of writing more than one type of narrative. If Erikson already has experience with complex intrigue and general fantasy it would seem to fit somewhat. Are there any other potential authors who could...

Looks like Yeahlight posted another large patch. One of the things that leapt out at me was "NPC AI is now complete" http://www.eqclassic.org/forums/view...hp?f=61&t=3451

You basically don't want any sort of magic armor / weapons. I could get behind that concept if it was a steampunk fantasy game. I doubt the neckbeards of EQ would like the idea of "no magic omgz!!" Limiting the usefulness of magic can enhance the difficulty of a game if done correctly.

I'm not sure how I would have heard of him before lol. I don't belong to any book groups or browse sites that recommend authors. I did the amazon recommended book thing for a while or just bought random books I found at the book store. I haven't read any fantasy lately though. It gets...

My google-fu found this author's name. Steven Erikson He sounds similar to GRRM but I haven't read any of his work. I might have to pick up one of his novels, looks like he has a crazy 10 book long series hah. Bio here http://www.fantasybookreview.co.uk/S...biography.html It...

FF7 Cosplays better than FF8 >_>

It would make interesting troll fodder on GoT fan sites. Trying to seriously push that idea onto those fan forums might make for some fantastic fun. I still remember the epic outrage when Salvatore killed off one of the characters in the Star Wars novels. I'm sure he has it in him to kill off...

Doomsday Seed Vault in Norway

With the popularity of the series, I'm sure they would hire a new writer to finish the series for him. Idk, can authors make a will that their story has to die with their passing? It would be a douche move either way if it could be done. I'm struggling to think of any authors that could take...

I haven't really read much of GRRM musing on what his inspirations are or any of the spoiler sites. His fantasy world reminds me some what of Roman era Britain with the warring factions and "the wall" spanning the entire stretch of the kingdom. Why an intelligent invading force of white...

FFXI had an interesting concept on skill point allotment. Each character could switch to be any class or combination of two classes (multiclassing). When you switched classes or combinations, you didn't lose your skill or class exp levels however your skill levels were capped at a maximum...

I would suggest you read this article on what exactly correlation means. Correlation does not imply causation. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Correla...mply_causation I wouldn't call my self the thread police, I do try to point out retarded thought processes where I can though. You...

So what about a correlation? How does bringing up this correlation pertain to gun control? This is a thread about gun control, if you aren't trying to make any points in relation to that topic then why are you here?

So what point are you trying to make then? Is it that guns should be banned to lessen violence? That would be unrealistic and retarded to even suggest we ban guns for police and citizens. Drug cartels and others will just import guns and rule the streets. If you are trying to suggest that we...

You know what they call police shootings right? Justified homicide.

Those statistics include suicides and police shootings. This is essentially death rate by gun, not crime rate.

That link above was a crazy person who should not have been allowed to own a gun. It's not a problem with gun ownership, it's a problem with gun regulation. The more people try to push out right bans, the less actual meaningful policy will get passed because the NRA will be able to defeat...

Nearly finished season 1 TNG, man 26 episodes for the first season of a scifi show? That's crazy, heck do any current shows even have 26 episode seasons at all?

Translation. I showed the game to all my employees which I pay and they agreed I should continue employing them to make a game.

Are you suggesting that more content exploration / adventuring / hidden quests is a bad design concept?

I think the enjoyment of a new "killer mmo" has an element of a players expectation of what a good game is. Players these day's expect mind blowing graphics which cost a quite a bit to deliver. If you can enjoy a game that doesn't have modern graphics, I'm sure some of the indie development...

We need more Isometric MMO's >_> Ultima remake!!
