    The Writing Thread - Post Shit You've Written (And Criticize What's Posted)

    Been awhile since the last post here. Hopefully people still reading it and care. Attaching a short story that I've been working and would like to hear what you guys think about it! Well, tried to attach a file, but apparently the forums had set pathetically small limits for the file sizes...

    Downton Abbey

    Finally got around to watching Season 3, which was a vast improvement on Season 2. S1 still the best though. Looks like S4 just started up, and interesting to see where they're going with it.

    The Newsroom S2

    Pretty sure giving Mac a win over Skyler would have been more palatable.

    Soccer 2013-2014

    Yeah, pretty woeful performance and we never once looked like creating any decent chances. Obviously should have had a penalty which might have changed things, but didn't deserve to win or even draw the match. Luckily we get a bit more creativity back this week.

    DOTA 2

    Would limiting the number of regions people could que for, say up to 3 at a time, help in terms of not getting so many foreigners in your local servers?

    Soccer 2013-2014

    It's more ignorant than dumb since Napoli have been on the rise for the last couple of seasons and did a great job of reinvesting the money they made from selling their best player. Arguably better than Spurs have done. While Dortmand would be favorites ahead of the match, it's not a huge upset...

    DOTA 2

    http://dotabuff.com/matches/315077868 Really enjoyed dominating, but doesn't feel satisfying knowing a lot of it had to do with the other side being pretty bad. Not that I'm good or anything, as anyone who's played with me will tell you. Also sucks the other team ragequit but probably...

    That sucks, he's one of my favorite players. Guess it won't effect how it plays, but still. Will be good to see him get some more game time now due to the red card.

    Remakes that are better than the originals

    Peter Jackson's The Fellowship of the Ring was better than the original cartoon one.

    yeah, no complaints about the result. Really missed Johnson. Wisdom seem to struggle all game, far more than Sakho which the commentators were complaining about. Still yet to see much of value from Aspas and he's only got until Suarez returns to prove he's of any value at all otherwise he'll...

    Did anyone else start to fear that when Will was chasing after Mac he would get there just in time to find her with a new boyfriend? So so glad that didn't happen.

    Well it took 201,985 ish years of human development before Elite did it first, so who knows how much longer it might have taken if they hadn't!

    Best mind blowing movie.

    Shawshank Redemption probably doesn't count, though it did great job of building at the end to thinking that Andy might have committed suicide at the end, and then seeing how he actually escaped.

    http://uk.eurosport.yahoo.com/blogs/...220044886.html Lol! Hopefully Fifa can adapt goal line technology so that it can tell not only if the ball has crossed the line, but whether the person making saves is an actual player!

    Yeah, Ozil is a great player, and an improvement on what they've got, but just think of where that money could have been spent elsewhere in the square. Maybe 2 or 3 good improvements that also add cover for the inevitable injury or fatigue crisis that scupple's arsenal's season, or a world class...

    Best mind blowing movie.

    The special edition dvd has a feature that lets you watch the whole thing straight forward, but I've never gotten around to watching it. Not sure I want to either, though it does intrigue me to see the difference.

    Arsenal just beat spurs, why do they need to sign anyone? Everything is fine over there. Liverpool still yet to concede a goal and the first perfect start to a season in 94. Apart from Man U, not great opponents nor great wins, but certainly better than the alternative. Yes, top of the...

    DOTA 2

    Is it worth while coming up with a few set teams? Like 5 heroes that work well together, or even pairs of heroes that work well in lanes, just so we're focused more on the team game of working together, than worrying about picks and counter picks and what not.

    Wasn't pretty but I'll take it! It's hard not to start getting giddy with the start to the season we've had, especially when you look at our next six opponents! ps, and top of the table where we belong, once again!

    They've made so many signings that it's going to take a while to integrate them. Chances are, a couple will flop, a couple will shine and most will be solid. It's certainly promising for them this season, but it's better as a base to build from for next season and the season beyond, when they'll...

    DOTA 2

    Would have team sizes of say 8, or even 10, make things easier to setup? That way you can pick the 5 available people from your team to play at any given time, rather than trying to find a specific time that suits both teams of 5? Obviously cuts down on the number of teams, and may cause issues...

    Star Trek: Discovery

    Then they tried to fix it in the final season by speeding it up, which although it made it go away quicker, also made it must worse! I just finished rewatching it all also, and agree with what everyone says. Definitely had promise but the time travel shit screwed it up. I really like the 3 ep...

    Europa Universalis IV

    Forcing religion change is another good one for destabilizing their country, but I normally try and release nations, particular in a way that separates their country so that can't get to any rebals that spring up in one side. Generally the release nations don't like them and don't give them...

    Spurs are famous for their massive failures though! Villa was such a great buy for Athletico, his opening goal in the supercup was pretty class. Must say it also made me glad we missed out on diego costa. He gets maybe a foul in the build up, but when the goal is scored, instead of going to...

    You can change the luck bonus to be random, though maybe not in ironman mode. I know in EU3 it could be disabled entirely. I must say that I'm pretty happy with ironman mode. I must admit to many a savegame reload in EU3, so forcing myself to fight through bad stuff has been good. And yes...
