No I think they were, but not to the degree that the Raptor's win is tainted. Injuries happen. It is part of the game. I guess my view is, the Warriors are a good *team* and they did play their heart out, but the balls fell for the Raptors, but that is how sports works sometimes. If...

The warriors not being able to hold up and close the season was good for the NBA. Injuries happen at the darndest times, and the Raptors just proved, you never know if a team is gonna get hot and all the right people are gonna make the right plays. Lowry's start the other night was a joy to...

ok this is just silly

If toronto cannot take advantage of this terrible not good situation, choke hall of fame.

This game is a hoot

An old friend of mine just emailed me and said he finally played this all the way through in correct tuning and everything. He is a professional musician in his early 50's lol. Tis a great song.

Capital is a real issue. I am guessing DBG has a total yearly budget of 7 figures, not counting overhead of being run above a pizza parlor and the maintenance of the no doubt rented server farms, and so, ya know, we have to be prepared that we may want some real substantive product from this IP...

That Kimmel bit was hilarious. Reminds me of the Anchorman 2 fight scene, where the Canadian news team says "sorry" after every insult. If the Raptors win, I hope at least one Canadian newspaper has guts to run a simple one word bold print headline: SORRY!

Yeah. I am fairly sure among the ancient Romans, tampering with a sanctioned event was considered sacrilege and was thus subject to sacred law. And then this guy came after you:

Well, spend an hour glancing at the p99 boards. It was classic for the r99 people to basically derail any and all threads. Some of you know. So, in other words, this is kind of comically ironic. OF COURSE a thread about issues surrounding classic EQ is going to get invaded by the PvP "hordes" --...

"Jonathan: EverQuest can’t be exactly like it was in 1999 for multiple reasons. 1. That code and data is gone. ...." And who the fucks fault is that? Or are you suggesting this is the fifth law of thermodynamics that, over time, all code reduces to 0"? Do your jobs. Hire people to reconstruct...

That asshole co-owner deserves the ban. I know I am naive, but I expect people who own sports franchises to be ... good sportsmen. Watching the clip, he appears to just be a douche with a lot of money. Either that, or so clueless that he does not fully grasp that sitting courtside at an NBA game...

Hope it is not too late for me to just say, unreal. I can't believe I give a fuck about the heavyweight division. And all because of this dude? Round 3 was *amazing* action:

A haiku Is it true that Wu Has disappeared from Deadwood? If so, cocksucker.

I remember, back when I played hardcore, first eq1 then eq2 (I got off the SOE wheel when eq2 phased out contested mobs), I would enjoy pick-up groups. But it was always a reality check. I was used to grinding and playing till near dawn if needed. But in pick-up groups, people had different...

"Go for the eyes Boo" is basically a gamer's secret handshake.

Dude certainly thought with his dick. A lot.

I actually worked with a dude who served, and he was working in this area. His job was to monitor via satellite AWAC etc., targets that where on a watch list. He would report to a superior if he got positives. The4n a decision would be made whether to call in a strike. He was troubled, he used...

Any meaningful new mmo has to9 figure out a way to foil multiboxing. It drives away audience. I like the skill paths > class idea ukerris mentioned above and if designed well, sure, it would be a fine way to go. What still remains the challenge in the pve model, is how to design content...

Ukkeric I really like the definition of C you gave. That helped sharpen things for me a bit. This is from wikipedia but it just really blows my mind to try to hash it out conceptually: "No physical theory of local hidden variables can ever reproduce all of the predictions of quantum...

Everone's favorite post-apocalyptic city with winters that are way too cold, Cleveland Ohio, has been chosen to host 2021's NFL draft. Woot! These were the selling points apparently: 1. Cleveland has more bars per capita than any other American city 2. Cleveland averages more sunless and...

Same in my area. "Abandoned Malls" is actually a thing, like skilled photographers are doing art projects around their photos. It IS spooky. I rmember when if it was Saturday afternoon, you went to the mall. It is absolutely crazy how quickly that era has ended. And yeah, I heard about Sears...

NOPE. THIS IS NOT THE GAME FROM AMAZON WE WANT. NO NO NO. https://www.businessinsider.com/amazon-makes-game-warehouse-workers-tasks-2019-5 Actually this looks like the game. Let's say I am a tank in game. But in RL I did not show up to work that day. Maybe I had good reason! But the fact is I...

Wait a sec. In that central pic of Jupiter, isn't the whorl at the center photoshop'ed in from Van Goh's Starry Night?

I just spent three days trying to understand Bell's Theorem https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bell%27s_theorem I cannot grasp most of its claims, but one of its claims does ring too clear: if it is correct, local realism is simply incomplete. That conclusion, which stems from this idea of...

How to create classes is one of the oldest questions there is. I still think D&D got like 90 percent right. No need to reinvent the wheel. We need to reinvent the market! Amazon needs to offer an MMO where you can order pizza from your keyboard! Oh, wait a sec......

why the hell not, I need something totally over the top

Also, could become a sex cult...

This would be the only answer. The Ice Giants of the techworld (not DBG) would have to strategize how to use an mmo as a loss leader and then both design good content / world but distribute it for free w/ no pay to win. Like, everytime you loot something you have to upload an instagram or enter...

Well, my specialization is cardiovascular, but you were the only cariopulmonary specialist there, so it made sense to "form an alliance" as it were. Last thing I wanted was to be sentenced to Rura Pente for negligence again (long story, don't ask) But a special mention has to go to Brownie...

Sadly, norm not exception. US higher education is what I do. These people are insane. I remember the old joke, from like 40 years ago, "how many lesbians does it take to screw in a lightbulb? That's not funny." These days, not only is it not funny, it is grounds for dismissal. I hate this...

True story. I was having a friendly debate with a colleague (who is also a good friend) and I lost the argument (it was about some office policy, trivial), and I slipped into Wu's accent and sliced my hand across my neck and said "cocksucker!" We both laughed since he is also0 a Deadwood fan...

Yeesh. poor Zion. Who the hell cares about NO basketball? This is bad for the NBA. I predict some trade stuff happening, maybe even some shenanigans, to get Zion to something that can at least generate some money.

No one got Wu?? Cocksucker!

I thought it meant "you lift bro?" Oops. I'm sorry, I'm not used to these message board things, I'm sorry really.

Correct me if I am wrong but isn't the big deal with you tunesters, group wide buffs esp. resists?

Pack a huge bowl and have fun
