Maybe I'm mis-remembering, but I didn't think the ES elves had purple skin and 6 inch ears

Why does an elder scrolls trailer have a night elf in it? But seriously, trailer was so/so. The stuff with the siege on the massive tower was cool, the rest was boring. I mean yeah these trailers blew everyone's mind when Blizzard first did them, but now every company spends stacks of cash on...

No, it isn't. If people want to be overweight, that's up to them, but they shouldn't act like it's normal and healthy and get pissed off when other people don't.

Yeah that's some seriously inspirational shit.

You just have to maintain an attitude of cautious enthusiasm, with an extra dose of the caution. I find it helps if I try to remain enthusiastic about the genre as a whole but don't get fixated on this or that game being thenext big thing, just enjoy them for what they are.

Finally got over to JQ. Looking forward to having more time to play in a week or two now that summer is winding down.

Fuck all your creepy doll faces

Oh, no the yellow people are coming for our white white building full of white white people, call in morgan freeman and generic handsome action hero to save us!

Well it makes sense that women would have a degree of perceived authority or superiority in the historical context of the men breaking the world and women being the only legit channelers. Although it's kind of a dick move, since the men basically took one for the team and locked the DO away...

I'd hit it.

I'd agree with you, but Egwene was involved in a very similar political power struggle for much of the latter half of the series, and that's where her character thrived. I hated Egwene just as much as Elayne in the first few books (well she was ok in EOTW, relatively speaking) but in the last 4...

Or she OD's on a speedball and dies?

Yeah, the Becca thing is annoying as fuck, and promises to become more annoying. And the whole rehab thing with the groupie chick is way too predictable, they should have just booked Kate Hudson for the role and it would have been a cool reference instead of just lazy writing. That said, it...

Gonna disagree with you there. ToA and it's fucked up itemization grind, the absurd levels of CC, getting 2 shot by certain classes with maxed resists, horrible pve resist code for spells, requiring buffs to compete and the subsequent buffbot issue, stealther retardation, and oh man I could just...

Yeah I may be guilty of that

He used it in Shadar Logoth when Rand was fighting Sammael there, that's how they ended up with their mental connection, so he has at least once. Though it makes you wonder, if he's so desperate for an end to the cycle, why not just balefire himself? Much easier than reincarnating over and...

LOL, you were kind of asking for that one.

I think they were being metaphorical. They could have gone further I agree, but considering the massive shifts in the world political stage, I'd say it still qualifies.

Even a tree doesn't have as much impact as a person, I'd think. But yeah nothing stopping them from linking up, maybe grab a sa'angreal or w/e then just run around balefiring entire towns like Rand did to Graendal's castle.

I don't know, I could be wrong, that was just the impression I had from the various server transfers. What I do know is that it's been a real pain in the ass trying to get over to JQ. Barely been online the last month or so cause summer holidays/christmas and all, now I'm keen to get stuck...

To be fair, I thought the first season of Breaking Bad was kinda weak by comparison. It wasn't dramatic enough to be drama and it wasn't funny enough to be dark comedy. It was only later on when the stakes were raised and Walt started his downward spiral that it went from being an OK show to...

I think you're misunderstanding that quote, though it's really vague and ambiguous. Given that the servers seem to drop in population at the expected times of day, I'd imagine it's calculated by the number currently online.

Witcher - really tedious gameplay with a murky storyline and too much running back and forwards with no idea where to proceed. The second game was awesome, however. Oblivion - Worst of the ES games by a wide margin, horrible combat, the scaling system is absurd and the gameworld is crazy...

RIP Prop Joe This scene always summed the show up for me.

Figured this doesn't really need it's own thread in the book house, but anyone have any suggestions on books about Physics? Looking for something which deals in the subject in an entertaining manner while still being accessible someone who dropped high school science at the first opportunity...

Good start to the season, glad to have more Archer to look forward to every week, also glad that this show is getting the attention it deserves.

Well he doesn't read about his books online, so it's quite possible he never came across the theory until someone asked him if it was true.

Sorry to break it to ya

Wait: Emond's Field, Tarren Ferry, Deven Ride and Watch Hill. So yeah, 4 villages. And Taim is a gangsta:

I thought that was more to do with their being descendent from Manetheren, and in general being so remote that no aes sedai had come through and picked off channelers, both in an immediate sense and in the historical sense in having taken them out of the gene pool.

To be fair, I'd imagine the ones who are crap at fighting and riding either stayed home or died off.

He was putting the heads up specifically to piss Sansa off, she wouldn't have given a fuck about Arya's 'stupid dancing master.'

Yeah, but there are a million things that 'could' have happened, and I'm trying to think of a really absurd example but I haven't read the books recently enough to come up with anything, but the point is there's no evidence for it. It's the fantasy geek's version of Russell's Teapot.

I'm still holding out for one of those food cloning machines from Star Trek.

But he didn't, that was Lemmiwink's point, the guard he fought survived. I'm much more curious about wtf he's up to in Oldtown. Fucking Martin needs to stop being a lazy fatass and get the next book out.

It's not such a huge coincidence that she would run into 2 people from the same country, especially when they're intended to be characterized as foreign/exotic. Syrio already had an established reputation. Why would Jaqen stop off from whatever mission he's doing to work as a sword...

Still think Syrio/Jaqen is just wishful thinking. I mean it's possible, but there's no actual positive evidence for it, people just want them to be the same person because they're both badass (although I think it'd rob Syrio of his awesome sacrifice if he ended up alive).
