    Board Games

    This just sounds like you game with complete douchenozzles. Some days the dice work for you and sometimes they don't, there's absolutely no sense in fucking crying about it. I haven't even see that type of behavior in probably 20 years, when I was gaming with teenagers. And we remedied that...

    Blood Bowl

    Well, the thing that makes it kinda suspicious to me is that Kingy10Kingy douche comes in, starts a "What would you like to see in BB 2?" thread, where everyone basically shits on him for it because his suggestions are fucking retarded, and then a day later, Angry Joe shows up with "proof."

    That dude's full of shit, and they've already torn him apart in that thread.

    Buying a car?

    Oh here we go again with the guy who does fucking IT for one dealership claiming that they're all run by upstanding individuals and your bad experiences just could not have happened. Now look at what you've done.

    Blood Bowl

    Eh, it has very little to do with lore for me and more to do with laziness on the part of the dev's. There are already somewhat official teams in Slann and Chaos Pact (both of which would be immensely fun to play, judging from the rosters) that could have been included (Although rumor has it...

    Steam Deals and Digital Sales

    I just took this entire sale as more of a reflection on the gaming industry than Steam. There's just not much out right now that I want to play, or I own already as a result of previous sales. There really aren't many games right now that are OMG MUST OWN, so I'm just working through my...

    The Walking Dead

    That's entirely the case. There's no way to save There are literally no outcomes that change at all. At best MAYBE a line of dialogue. I don't know what game you people are playing where you think there are any differences in the choices you make, because I've played through parts...

    Blood Bowl

    They don't really shine out of the box, and they take a little while to get rolling, but once they do, they're pretty solid. Optimal TV in the 1400ish range. Claw on doubles, and the insane versatility of the bulls with cheap and reasonable hobgoblins and they're a pretty solid team. I...

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    The only thing I see that could possibly even come close to what you describe is the human lifespan compared to mice article. Even without the 200 years claim, that's still pretty exciting stuff that should give anyone opposed to stem cell research for any reason a reason to rethink their...

    Spartacus

    We had this discussion on FOH ad naseum. Basically is that it was originally planned to go 5+ seasons, but without Andy now they're just not feeling it anymore. New dude just isn't the lead character that Whitfield was. The show is good despite him, not because of him. With Oenameus...

    The Walking Dead

    The only "bad choice" you can make where you die is where you don't shoot the zombies in the head when they come at you. Or where you don't see that you need to pick up the screwdriver to stab them in the eye. There are no other "bad choices" you can make. Every choice leads to the same outcome.

    Steam Deals and Digital Sales

    You guys are pretty angry over getting games for 50-75% off just because they're 51-76% off somewhere else. Lemme know when we're back to paying $60 for games and don't have a choice and maybe I'll work up some rage to join you. It's basic business. If you are selling a mass fuckload of...

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    That's not an accurate assessment at all. Are you saying James Cameron did not go down to the Mariana Trench? Are you saying Voyager hasn't left the influence of the sun? I mean, thepossibleapplications of some of the tech may be overstated, but there's nothing in there that is premature...

    Album of the Year (2012)

    Pretty slow year for metal. Dethalbum 3 was probably the biggest disappointment of the year...just generic "collect a paycheck" type shit that will prevent me from buying a Dethalbum 4. Might have to bend the rules a bit, but I'd have to say I probably listened to Imaginaerum from Nightwish...

    The Walking Dead

    I thought the characters were shallow as shit. No matter what choices you make, no one changes their opinions of you enough to matter. You can help Kenny out all fucking game and you still need to scrap with the fucker at times, and he still cries like a little bitch every time you tell him to...

    Left 4 Dead 2 Revival

    If by better, you mean no game ever finished because any time any team actually completed a map, the other team immediately quit. It was nothing but a waste of time if you didn't have a dozen like minded friends to play with.

    Blood Bowl

    Hard is widely regarded as the easiest difficulty setting, because hard actually adjusts the AI to be more conservative and more risk averse. Therefore, if you apply a lot of pressure on them, they're likely to run backwards rather than forwards, because they don't want to lose the ball...

    The Girls Who Broke Your Heart Thread

    This stereotype is extremely accurate. The one I dated wouldn't fuck me, because that was wrong, but she'd do everything else, all the fucking time. My dick was sore for 2 weeks.

    Blood Bowl

    I can churn thru a SP game in 30-45 minutes, mostly because the AI doesn't give you too much you really need to work against. I block, I move the ball, I foul, next turn. But vs other people, I think that match above with Obilio was like an hour and a half. Gets intense when you know that...

    Insomnia

    I started working overnights the year after I got out of high school, and I also moved out on my 18th birthday, with my entire senior year left. So basically I was apartment dwelling for 11ish years there, and during that entire time I suffered from pretty much daily insomnia. It's how I met...

    Do you have health insurance?

    It would absolutely not be better. There would be millions upon millions of under/uninsured people because no one thinks that shit can happen to them. I certainly did not think I needed a $14000 appendectomy when I had what by all accounts to me appeared to be some stomach cramping and a mild...

    Do you have health insurance?

    You'll get no argument from me on the matter, but unfortunately, single payer got shot down because people don't want socialism. So it is what it is. There's a sizable portion of my colleagues that agree as well, but for some fucking reason, here we are. Lost a week of vacation, lost 17 sick...

    Do you have health insurance?

    You're just not getting it. I'm telling you that I have worked for exactly 1 company who paid out money that they would have otherwise spent on health benefits if you didn't take said benefits. My wife gets health insurance as part of her package too, we don't use it, and we're not signed up...

    Blood Bowl

    So I had a fantastic match with Obilio last night, my orcs vs his lizardmen. After the conversations on here and in IRC with a lot of the new guys having some questions about positioning and strategy and tactics, I felt this was an excellent match to put up to get the inexperienced players...

    Do you have health insurance?

    Companies are sitting on the largest stockpiles of money ever and wages are stagnant. What's the reason they're not paying people more?

    Left 4 Dead 2 Revival

    That doesn't matter for campaign, which it sounds like they're doing. Campaign on advanced is actually pretty damned well balanced for 4 average joes. Expert tends to get a little ridiculous, and normal is just a snorefest.

    Str? Very rarely. The only time I wouldn't guaranteed take STR is on a big guy, because str means doubles 6's and that means block. And if he has block, it means pro (which means less failed negatrait rolls). Even so...I had a 6 str minotaur at one point, he blitzed 3 dice on everyone 3 str...

    Yeah, also remember that any surf casualties don't count too. There are just some players that won't level up very fast no matter what you do. Vs the AI, I feed stuff like Black Orcs/Chaos Warrior's TD's to get them up to Block/Mighty blow, then they work themselves out. In multiplayer...

    That's covered by the company. Any comp claim doesn't go to my own insurance, it's covered 100% by the employer.

    We're as lucky it's as good as it is. Cyanide's other games are fucking terrible. Even this one I think only has one programmer on it, and no artist left working there to finish up all the star players. That being said, I think Blood Bowl is a fantastic game, so I'm willing to overlook some...

    No option for email using this particular client. I've heard there are other ways, but with things like defenders choice dice, sidestep and injury rolls (apothecary?), it would take a good long while to play a game via email. The plan for the real league is to do 1 game a week. Should be...
