    EQemu - Nagafen's Lair (Reborn)

    I did think the difficulty was at a good spot after all the changes were made tonight (seemed harder than earlier this week, but not retarded like it was this morning). Hopefully they can find that balance again. I'm also hoping I can figure out the flagging thing quickly when it comes back up...

    EQemu - Nagafen's Lair (Reborn)

    Yeah, it's a good time. I hit 49 on my monk, and 47 on my druid. Shame about all the server issues today. Especially since they're rolling it all back after whatever code they changed to ended up being garbage.

    Enchanter charm change makes me wish I had gone enchanter. Wow.

    I finished 96.6%, after fucking up on two days with teams that weren't playing. Makes me think as long as you "tried" every day, you were top 10%.

    Arkk's Weight Lifting / Fitness Thread

    Only slightly lifting related, but I bought a subwoofer for my home gym to get a little extra boom-de-boom going. It's amazing what a difference some heavier bass makes to my adrenaline during a lift.

    EQemu - Nagafen's Lair (Reborn)

    Glad to hear it. Only started yesterday after work, but I've had a blast so far. Could definitely see putting in a substantial amount of time on this one (as I said before, I played EZ server for a good 2-3 years back around 2009).

    Yeah, good to see. A little concerning that his projection for this was only 2 months though.

    Where do they find these people? I thought Michelle was unstable, but Paulie gave her a run for her money. That butterfly shit where he started crying...what the fuck?

    Did they finally award the TI compendium points? I'm curious to see how I finished.

    EQemu - Nagafen's Lair (Reborn)

    I'd rather be in a RR guild. Every single game over the past decade and a half where we've "joined forces" with another group has been a real clusterfuck. Anyway, this fucking thing is addictive as hell. After my post last night, I got really into it for a bit. Had it not been for the fact...

    EQemu - Nagafen's Lair (Reborn)

    Yeah, I'm at 24 on my monk and was able to break a few of the lguk camps. I need to figure out a quick way to level my druid up to the same though.

    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    Darren Sharper sentenced to 18 years for drugging and raping women. Didn't even realize he'd been in jail since 2014. I can't even comprehend NFL player stupidity. He's a Super Bowl winning NFL player. He won the lottery of life, and could have likely slept with most women he wanted to...

    Alright, got it downloading while I'm at work. I'll probably roll a Monk/Shaman. Look forward to joining you all soon.

    I thought it was obvious he was lying, at least a little, when his story included tough guy shit like telling the gunman "fuck you, I'm not getting on the ground."

    EQemu - Nagafen's Lair (Reborn)

    I may decide to give this a shot. I just started up on the regular EQ servers like 2 weeks ago, but I haven't gotten very far yet. About how big is the download of the old school client? Sounds like a good cross between live EQ servers and the EZServer emu, which I played the shit out of a...

    Last Week Tonight with John Oliver

    I don't mind anyone saying that (and they all do). But why not call out the retarded shit the other side is doing? A dozen years ago, you sure as shit had people calling out Kerry and Bush, although probably slanted towards Bush since he's easier to make fun of. "Comedic news" has basically...

    Retirement bullshit

    It's people in their 50's too. People don't like to save; they want to "enjoy what they have now." I worry about the same thing, though. My guess is that it'll cause another housing crash. The only reason for that though is because that's basically the only place most people nearing retirement...

    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    She definitely hit paydirt. That endorsement money has to be worth a ton. RG3 with personal distractions should be quite a show. I already expected it to be a horrible season for the Browns (is that something that needs to be stated?), but I imagine this will make it so much worse for him.

    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    I'd argue that Jones is WAY more influential on the NFL though. I mean, the fact that he got a finalist nod before Bowlen kind of proves the point.

    Arkk's Weight Lifting / Fitness Thread

    Because I'm at a higher bodyfat percentage than I want? I'm 5'10 (maybe 5'9, as I think I'm getting shorter with age), and despite what people may believe, 200 pounds isn't a realistic weight for someone my height. At best, I'd probably looking at 170 pounds at 10% bodyfat. Which means I'm...

    Arkk's Weight Lifting / Fitness Thread

    Modern "bodybuilding" is so fucking retarded. They really need to look back at what Arnold said in the 70's and 80's regarding things like symmetry and proportion. If you're going to be big, Arnold's size should be just about the limit of what looks decent (and lots of people would argue he was...

    Big Brother 18

    I didn't realize there was an expiration on it either, but it seems like it'd be in a few weeks still (we're at what, 8?). Kind of like Survivor with top 5 is where the HII stops being usable. If Paul and Victor are smart, they'll get rid of Paulie, gun for Corey after that, and then flip to...

    Big Brother 18

    Looks like Paulie had a meltdown. Absolutely destroyed his own game in just a few days. He's gone, and likely Cody and Nicole are right behind him just by association. Michele lucked out big time, although she's surely odd man out after the rest are gone. I'm interested to see what happens...

    Everquest - Live Servers

    This kind of feels like a self inflicted problem though, as the quest hub style of gameplay that WoW introduced has been incorporated into every single game. Yes, it'd be a problem for quest NPC's to be attackable in a game where every character is funneled into talking to that NPC and doing...

    Yeah, that was weird. At least it wasn't Deadmau5. Anyway, I've only watched two TI's now, but that was fucking amazing. So many good games, so many heroes picked. Oh, and no technical snafu's that I saw.

    DC just ran out of steam. Still an amazing payout for #2. Wings all almost become multi-millionaires. Not sure how much their org will take though. And no Slacks on the Aegis.
