    The Girls Who Broke Your Heart Thread

    Drisnic dropping wisdom. Paying someone else to punch him isn't nearly as satisfying as stabbing him yourself. Finish the job, J49. Kristen will love you more.

    The Girls Who Broke Your Heart Thread

    So to clarify, you left a digital trail stating that you've been paying a girl for sex and that you are going to pay someone to assault this guy? That's perfect! You showed that smackhead who the boss is. Don't take your foot off the gas, finish those fliers!

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I've seen the "not random enough" complaints thrown out a bunch of times. I find the lacking randomness to be very convenient. In D2, it was EXTREMELY common to use a maphack if you were repeatedly re-running areas (especially Mephisto) or leveling a new build because the randomness was...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I must have been accidentally misleading. I think D3's PvP will be lousy and I am not into PvP in general unless the game is designed for it (like LoL). I was just letting the guy know he could try it and tell us his thoughts since it hasn't been discussed much and it is available. D3's PvP...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Actually, this is available on the Public Test Realm right now. It is super basic and the PvP area is separate from the rest of the game (you talk to a guy and enter an arena). So it is not similar to D2 at all, other than the balance between classes is equally bad, I'm told. Try it out and...

    Do you guys think the AH will perk back up after the patch? Have the prices on crafting mats already started trending up in anticipation? I haven't followed the pricing on them in a while.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    This thread should be a great lesson for Blizzard. Their extremely long dev cycle and beta just didn't come across at release. It felt poorly tuned, with little to no attention to the endgame and had massive server issues with online only DRM. This, coupled with their project team making...

    The Beer Thread

    The yeast is unlikely to be active and the mix has probably degenerated. You won't die, but you won't make something that resembles beer either. Order yourself a new refill kit. Preferably one that uses hopped liquid extract.

    Austin

    I see the concert is on campus, so I assume you guys will stay in the downtown area. From north to south: UTexas campus, the capital and downtown are lined up one after the other. The capital itself is fairly interesting and open to self-guided tours on the weekends, unless that changed...

    Here's a quick rundown, tell us what catches your interest for more details. Food: most of the hot restaurants are downtown or close to it. Upscale food trailers are big right now and they will often group up and have picnic tables for their shared guests. Nature: not sure what you are...

    Notre Dame Manti Te'o dead girlfriend a hoax

    If you believe his story, the guy had a woman help with the phone calls sometimes, others he would pretend the GF was in a coma and have a "relative" answer the phone. The impersonator flatly refused Skype, at which point Te'o became the dumbest motherfucker on the planet (if his side is true)...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    There are many AH strategies, choose the one you are most comfortable with. 1) List high with buyout matching min bid. Steadily reduce price until it sells. 2) List with a buyout at the upper end of your guess at value, with a min bid below what you think it is worth (but in the ballpark)...

    Liquors & Cocktails

    I'm far from a connoisseur, but I've had a number of different sakes as well. To the new sake drinker, the biggest difference maker is filtered vs unfiltered. Unfiltered tends to be sweeter. It also looks alarmingly like spooge. Filtered is clear like a white wine and tends to be drier...

    So apparently, Te'o had a 2 hour no-cameras, limited audio interview with Jeremy Schaap (ESPN) at midnight last night with a lawyer by his side. NOTHING SUSPICIOUS ABOUT THAT. According to this puff piece, everything is above board now (LOLOLOL). And according to this article, there may...

    That's the kind of rumor I would spread if I was the PR firm ND/Te'o hired and wanted to make sure the gay angle was buried. Just saying.

    Lance Armstrong To Confess?

    I guess that was his crass gamble in confessing. That he was wealthy enough to settle up for lots of cash and still be rich.

    Lance Armstrong To Confess?

    Well, he did let the statute of limitations run out on his previous lies during a deposition before confessing. My guess is that he loses significant cash in lawsuits, but doesn't get criminal charges. Which is fine, prosecution for lying about PEDs has been expensive and futile (see Bonds and...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I used to pick up blues to salvage/sell and I used to salvage yellows. Then I realized I was potentially decreasing my take since crafting mats were so cheap. If the prices have swung back up, that may no longer be the case. However, unless mats are at huge profit level right now, you should...

    Sadly, probably so. The tl;dr version of the interview: LA: "I used PEDs and I was a dick. Haha, good times. We good now?" OW: "Umm, how about all those people you fucked over?" LA: "LOL, I sure did fuck them over, didn't I? We good now?"

    Notre Dame Manti Te'o dead girlfriend a hoax

    The more I read about it, the more the cover for being gay scenario makes sense. A long distance GF he only visits at random times when no one else is present covers the bases. However, early in his Sr year, he was starting to get press attention for awards. Can't take the fake GF to award...

    Lance Armstrong To Confess?

    A matter of opinion, I suppose. I think he was an over-the-top prick that used his fame and wealth to stomp on less fortunate people who told the truth. It's par for the course in PED cases, but that doesn't make it ok. From what I've read, Armstrong really went the extra mile to screw...

    Lance Armstrong To Confess?

    This is generally true. However, people have a reason to cheer that Lance gets some comeuppance. He went out of his way to fuck anyone who dared to tell the truth about his means to success. The guy is really a living paradox. He and his foundation have done a ton for cancer patients and...

    Notre Dame Manti Te'o dead girlfriend a hoax

    I guess it's possible he was duped but given all the info out there, it really doesn't make sense. Either the "I need a good storyline for the Heisman run" or "my online girlfriend covers the fact I'm into dudes" makes way more sense. Boy, I'd like to be an NFL GM on the other side of the...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Yes, the patches greatly reduced the default difficulty of Inferno. Mob damage output was lowered significantly across the board, and Inferno received additional reductions. I know exactly the "A2 wall" you are talking about in early D3 versions, and it does not exist anymore.

    Other than unannounced server-side adjustments to the frequency that certain random quests or dungeons spawn, no. They have made no changes to the way the levels are generated on the whole.

    The key attaches itself to a Battle.net account permanently. You can then d/l the game to any computer, though you have to log into B.net and stay connected to the internet to play, even for single player. I have no idea how safe eBay keys are.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Thanks for posting that, lots of good info. PvP doesn't mean anything to me, but I'd like to hear Nirgon's take on whether it does anything for him. I like that they are making crafting more meaningful, adjusting xp to merit the difficulty increase with MP (since every xp run hinged on...

    Gun control

    I'm on the fence on this one. Armed staff should be a huge deterrent to potential shooters since any given adult in the school could have a gun. You'd think it would also make the kids a little more hesitant to start shit with teachers, an added bonus. On the downside, there's the "kid gets...

    Homeowners

    Do you (or your family) already use a pool very regularly? If not, chances are you won't use it nearly as much as you imagine. The maintenance is constant and the costs are significant. I'm sure it's a winning deal for those who really use the hell out of it. For me, it's an expensive headache.
