    Old titties worth revisiting ? - post yours here.

    No one mentioned Arx Fatalis? It's only 10 years old. That game was really interesting without being really great. Interesting enough to remember for 10 years. Just a neat fucking game.

    If you're too proud to bind rush you just don't deserve the loot. We used to have a bind rush brigade for a couple of mobs. Cazic version 2 and I think some of the outdoor SoV dragons. Wizzies and druids would just manadump and suicide. lol. Wizzies because it was effective. Druids...

    The Matrix (1999)

    I'm not sure which is worse... that thing in the picture or the dipshit who changed the idea in the script to perpetual motion machines.

    You've said two wildly different things while presenting them as the same idea. I think the confusion may only be in language, honestly. I'm pretty sure you mean the gooder, not-retarded thing.

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    the first part of that thought and the second part of that thought don't fit together. THAT'S THE POWER OF LOVE

    That's demonstrably wrong though, at least if you proceed from "a single point" like the big bang does. Something has to change if that's the framework. It's not me saying that, it's guys orders of magnitude more educated in the field than I am with a more discerning mathematical intellect...

    He's saying it's axiomatic. And it is. It's not a very good theory yet. It's very grand, but it says very little and seems to predict or postdict very little. Maybe i'm wrong in assuming this -- but it seems that you believe without the BBT we would not be looking at high energy states as...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Take the name, don't take the name. As a man you gotta have a really small dick to care about that. Frankly -- she's either wearing the name of her father or the name of her husband and I ain't lookin to be no grown womans daddy. Shit, maybe he was a better man than I am anyway. The hyphen...

    True, but (assuming they exist) finding soft bodies on mars would be different than here on earth. There's no ongoing water sediment. There's no water erosion. There's no tectonic process. There is no cyclic organic decay. Many of the factors which make it so difficult to find soft bodied...

    Or: If we had no mysteries, faith would lack meaning. Edit: I think they use that one already, come to think of it.

    Sure. And for some of them it literally is that simple. But sure, I realize there can be and often is quite a bit more to it than that. It just surprises me they didn't send a rudimentary tiny old-as-science style microscope is all. I'm only talking about some seriously basic observations...

    I'm also not entirely sure why they didn't send a regular, old ass microscope on the thing. I was genuinely surprised to find out that they didn't. I'm guessing it would have been too large a leap of faith to authorize as the functional payloads are highly limited and pound for pound expensive...

    Pope Benedict XVI resigns

    That's perfectly fair. But the mission was not to kill or try all nazi's. The mission was to liberate Berlin and defeat Germany. At some point the war has to end. That some offenders were sentenced to exile rather than death. It's not satisfying, but I don't know that it's a mockery of...

    Camelot Unchained MMO

    Hartsman seems less of a creative influence and more of a nuts and bolts sort of guy. He seems to pull it in and be a tad too risk averse. Overly cautious, maybe. But that's a good thing. Projects NEED that to be more than pipe dreams or they need it when shit is so unfocused that it's...

    I always assumed it was because after a war of that scope, no one was going to spend much effort chasing the defeated remnants into fucking south america. If they'd run to africa probably some one would have chased them. But south america? Who is gonna send a brigade into south america to...

    That would have been a MUCH more interesting game. I'd probably still be playing that game. I suspect it also would have been a less popular game. I was only in a few guilds guardian side but most of those guys, easily the majority, WERE wow-burnouts that came to rift because they were...

    Camp rads. I know that the boss on the bottom floor of befallen had a camp rad. I know that from extensive camping. Not even his placeholder would pop if you were in the room, but if you went around the corner and looked into the room.. ding, 10 seconds later he popped. I don't think...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Well gents, the moral of the story is that marriage is forever. If you don't stay married till you die, you'll probably wind up wishing you had. Be smart. Buy/rent something with a 2nd story. Just in case.

    Maybe. But it's not old news to me, at least. That shares the problems that "organic" compounds presented though. It's not a proof so much as an indication that this idea is not (yet) impossible. The trouble is that even if it remains possible forever that doesn't mean it happened. But...

    The asian Christians that I know are fucking hardcore. I'd probably call them lunatics too if I weren't Christian myself. As it is I can understand their zeal... but Christ. I've had some interesting conversations with friends and... it's just fundamentally a different understanding of the...

    You could pretty easily do RvR as a sec0 variant. Your map is just gonna have to be immense. That's a big reason why it works so well in eve -- it's the sheer scale of the map. That creates logistical challenges that you don't get in other small map pvp games. I mean the most logistics we...

    I play a lot of them. It's how I know creed sucks. I'll listen to maybe 20-30 seconds. If it's bad it goes away. If I don't feel like turning it off, it musta been alright. I don'twatchthem though. What's the point of that.
