    He got his wind back at just the right time. He really started to gas in the 2nd and I was worried he was done. Guy has the heart of a champion though. What he has lost over the years in explosiveness and the ability to physically dominate, he has gained in patience, timing, and fighting IQ...

    It's Indiana, not Illinois. And for the record, Indiana doesn't exactly have a sterling rep for being progressively open-minded about race relations. That said, i agree with you. The 70's changed a lot of stuff with race relations. By the 80's it still would have been a gossip-worthy...

    Yeah lol, last season it was holes in the walls and strings of lights draped everywhere. This season she turned her house into a notebook paper map of tunnels. Love it. Definitely a theme.

    Stranger Things

    S02 solid. Definitely worth watching. Lots of great new subtle nostalgia from Aliens to Children of the Corn. Once again they do a great job of delivering the nostalgia with just the right amount of touch, giving it to us with a nod and a wink rather than relying on it to support the story...

    Uh, speaking of this, is there a good place to find streams? Something like the NFL reddit page? Apologize if it's been posted or is easy to find. I always prefer just getting info straight from a trusted board than doing my own random searching.

    Listen, I just thought his quote was laying it on a bit thick, that's all. I think it was the whole thing about"wanting nothing more" that got me lol. I mean, come on, when has this board ever wanted nothing more out of Brad McQauid than to support him? If you want to make the point that Brad...

    Lol please, tell that to someone new to the boards. Anyone that has been around since the old fohguild days knows that anything Brad does brings about a 50/50 split of people that want to worship him and people who want to crucify him. For every Convo defending him there's a Twobit Whore on...

    Looking good. Always nice to see them making progress. Doesn't mean a ton in the big picture They managed to find the guy that designed Guk in EQ? That's impressive. What a great dungeon that was. Definitely the best vanilla dungeon. It's not really a dungeon, but I was always...

    Project 1999 - Making Norrath Great Again

    Rogean has stated multiple times he ultimately intends to run two blue servers. For example: open a new server, run it through the progressions, once it gets stale, merge it with the old server. Rinse, repeat. Basically always have a fresh progression server. I made that suggestion to him...

    X-Com-alike pen and paper game?

    Starfinder is the sci-fi Pathfinder setting. Haven't played it, but if it's as well put together his Pathfinder, it's probably pretty good. Fading Suns is a pretty close match to Xcom. Even has psy stuff. As someone else suggested, Shadowrun could pretty easily be made to fit the Xcom setting.

    The Vietnam War

    I've never seen anything done by Ken Burns that isn't worth watching. Really looking forward to this. Never seen a better doc than his Civil War series. I rewatch it every few years.

    NFL Streaming Thread - 2017/18

    Read the thread but still not sure there is a "best option" for me. I'm streaming directly from my computer to my tv- no roku, no kodi. I'm not a student, but can probably get access to a student ID number. I don't mind paying up to $100 for the entire season, but I'm not paying more than...

    NFL 2017-18: Watch athletes destroy their brains

    McGregor vs Mayweather - Aug 26

    It would have little such effect. Boxing pundits would simply say Floyd lost because he was old, didn't take the fight seriously, and Mcgregor got lucky.

    McGregor vs Mayweather - Aug 26

    This is the only fact that could make this travesty interesting. That said, I don't think Mayweather minds looking bad as long as he gets his money and his 50-0 record. Boxing already looks bad.

    They've got some good ideas for sure. It's an overused expression, but EQN was going for revolution and VR is content with evolution. Evolution is always safer/easier/cheaper.

    I'd guess we will have some sort of mechanism for accountability in the future for KS- if KS expects to continue to exist there's going to have to be. The whole concept of being able to panhandle for funds with nothing more than promises and then fail to deliver while facing zero repercussions...

    Civilization VI

    What's the word on this game? I bought just about every other Civ on release but held off on this one due to negative reviews. I need a strat game now though. Should I pull the trigger on this or just wait for VII?

    SNES Classic - 9/29 - $80

    With all the options to emulate old Nintendo games, I almost passed on the NES classic. I'm glad I managed to snag one at the last minute though. I'm not much of a collector, but I do like having the actual mini NES and original Nintendo controller. Definitely plan on picking up the SNES

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

    Sure. I'll take your word for it. Seems to me that the line between "cosmetic" and "p2w" gets blurred really fast. Cash shops start out promising only cosmetic and then slowly but surely start slipping toward "gameplay affecting" and then eventually pay to win. After all, when cash shops are...

    Here's my take on cash shops-- and I'm a salty old DnD player, so take this with a grain of salt, but I think it applies because fantasy mmos are fundamentally built around the old tabletop traditions. If I'm sitting around the table with a group of friends rolling dice and DMing them through...

    You see, you nailed it right here. This: "If we step outside of the MMO genre for a minute" Is required for this: "You can have a cash shop and it not "ruin" the game."

    Killing yourself doesn't show remorse. Choosing to live despite the pain in order to right your wrongs shows remorse. If he committed suicide he wasn't doing it for anyone other than himself.
