    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    FWIW I love the books, but If forced to choose between the two I would prefer the show continuing as opposed to the books. ASOAIAF is fantastic, but there's plenty of other good fantasy novels. Nothing on TV like GoT however. GoT and Mad Men really make this time of year awesome for Sunday...

    Mad Men

    It's well beyond mutual respect of co-workers. They both see themselves as outsiders. Successful, yet set apart from the world they inhabit. Pete Campbell is the same in a way. Thats part of why the final scene was so great. The part of me that got engaged to my one time best friend wants them...

    Wildstar Launch Thread - Server: Stormtalon | Faction: Dominion

    Thats cool, I would def like to join up for it. is there someone to PM who is handling it? Would be willing to play any healing class that the guild feels is needed but would prefer Medic if there is no strong preference.

    Wildstar Launch Thread - Server: Stormtalon | Faction: Dominion

    So despite not being super enthused I am gonna buy this I think. Just assuming I can get into a good raiding guild? Are we doing anything like that? i recall some people mentioning something many pages back... I only played about 12 levels but likely going to play Medic also. I love healing...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    Lol, during my old hipster days this also describes me and everyone around me. Gotta remember that line. Coming from the old eq days it's no surprise this community is filled with people like this. Also, WoW pvp on "pvp servers" was a joke. 99% of the time you simply ignored the other side...

    Mad Men

    I think it's a pun on lou's waterloo (downfall) I don't see another Draper crash and burn next episode personally. I guess like Napoleon Don was exiled and has come rearing back with some of his former supporters joining so maybe it references that too... But I really don't see another Don...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Not gonna read the past 330 pages i missed so sorry if this stuff has been mentioned. I really hope they do Stannis parts better. He is my fav char in the books, and his star turn is about to come. Stannis and his story seem very peripheral in the show so far. Is the Iron Islands story...

    Mad Men

    Sweet we have a thread for this! Surprised so few people are interested. One of the top Episodes of the past 3 seasons IMO. Loved the interaction between Don and Peggy, contrasted with Don and Megan who are clearly not going to end well. The scene ending with Don and Peggy dancing to "my...

    EDM has changed a ton since I partied back in 04-06 man. Back then popular stuff like this was such blatant ecstasy music. I really think the whole vibe has changed. Another classic from back in the day. dat supersaw....

    Live Performances Thread

    If you like Tom Yorke or REM this is a really neat performance. Thom goes nuts at the end. I feel like nowadays artists like Yorke, Stipe, Corgan, and many others would never be the front man of a big band. Music is so about image nowadays yet some of the best of the past two-three decades was...

    Live Performances Thread

    I saw Arcade Fire live back in 05 in a club in Boston, Holy shit one of the best performances I have seen. Part of me thinks it's weird they are playing gigantic venues now. Although it's good more people will experience it,.

    Sorry I forgot about making this thread. Was pretty drunk, much of my rambling in OP seems even worse then my normally bad posting. Khane are in you from Rhode Island or New England? I might go myself given it's only a 20min drive. Looking at the lineup Band of horses had one song I loved...

    Soccer 2013-2014

    Apparently Liverpool is trying to get Emre Can, he has some weird contract shenanigans however. I really feel UEFA should put together a standard contract and possible provisions along with methods to enforce them. Liverpool apparently just ignored the buyout for Suarez because the clause is...

    NeverGrind: EQ inspired, browser-based single player RPG

    So thanks for the game, it's fun bro. However despite a supposed ranger "nerf" 60rng does 1500 dps while 63 SK does 360.... Really SK is just insanely boring, needs to be re done.

    Archeage

    So is the $150 pack the only way to get into the alpha currently? Any idea when Beta will start? I might buy the $50 w/beta access as this sounds like the most promising mmo of 14. Whats a good site for infos? the ones in OP seem to be for Western peeps playing the Asian version.

    Ahh C'thun.... My guild including all my rl friends who played save one and I were rather famously banned for wall hacking to avoid having to kill the trash to get to him.

    Archeage

    No, I am not in the alpha. Was not suggesting people could attack and gain control. Merely attack put it into a vulnerable state where it could then be attacked a time of the defenders choosing and possibly be taken. It would be weird for a game like this I know, but I hope they come up with a...

    Archeage

    While I hate the Sov mechanic in EVE, it would be neat if you could potentially attack a castle anytime you want (non instance) then say have to attack again in 1-3days at a time of the defenders choosing like in eve. The devs should come up with other ways to discourage zerging. Instancing...

    Why do people even compare modern raiding to stuff 10 years ago? You have a million advantages and such you never had back then of course it's going to be "more complex".

    The City punishment is a Joke.It's worded to make to look harder then it is. Like it's two years but if City "complies" in the eyes of fifa they get 2/3rds of the money ack and no penalties for 2015. Poor City can "only" spend 60m pounds this year. IMO it just proves FFP is 100% toothless...

    Why I play Ultima Online

    FWIW I apologize for comparing Garriot to Brad in the first Pantheon thread. I was only 13 when EQ came out. Tried UO a few months later, couldn't see why people would play it instead of EQ so I quit.

    Plenty of players excel in college and fail in the pros. Dude who was the big 12 dpoy didn't get drafted despite much better combine numbers. I don't think it's wrong to suggest a layer drafted at the end of the 7th round should concentrate on football if he wants to have a career. 7th round...

    Has anyone from here put in an application yet? Could be a really sweet trolling opportunity. I too used some prescription opiates and ecstasy back in the mid 00s. Raiding WoW while on percs was awesome. Maybe I can be a Pantheon dev if I can find my old contacts.
