    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Yeah I knew something was going to happen but I was only 90% sure she wasn't going to lose one of her dragons (And 100% sure she wasn't going to lose the only one the books paid attention to). But I didn't expect her to just say 'ok unsullied, we have the city lol' like people in the thread are.

    Mount & Blade - A Clash of Kings 2.0 Releasing March 28th!

    Ah, 33 is nothing. iirc my cost per shadow legion was 2, lol. And I had thousands of prestige. In my last playthrough where I was a one lord kingdom I think I had about 15 fortress/cities with shadow legion orders in them, so I had more shadow legion than I knew what to do with. Maybe I'll...

    Mount & Blade - A Clash of Kings 2.0 Releasing March 28th!

    I looked at the patch notes, the change was: "Renown costs for Order knights increased a lot and depend on relations as well as honor" How bad is it now? For me the prestige cost was negligible since I had so much prestige. They'd have to increase it an order of magnitude for me to even...

    Path of Exile

    So I'm trying to buy an Eye of Chayula. From what I can tell the 'market price' is 1ex(so 6ish GCPs). I look and there's about 30 people selling chayulas. On Friday I posted an offer of 3gcps on the most recent 6 shops and got no response (Nor did they sell it to anyone else. One guy asked me...

    How do you import anything into PoP? I wanted to import the companions I had from vanilla warband and it seemed impossible.

    Regarding orders/silvermist/archers, my preferred archers are the doomguides (http://pop3.wikia.com/wiki/Doomguide) because: 1. They're fantastic archers (using noldor weapons, 400 archery, 9 horse archery). 2. They're mounted. 3. Their melee weapon is universally the doom mace, which means...

    The optimal weapons for sieges are : A. One handed (So you can use a shield, arrows are the big threat in sieges) B. Around a 110 length (So you are blocked by a minimal amount of walls/friendlies/shields/weapons, but it's still long enough to outrange most enemies when you're kiting) C. As...

    The Astr0creep has made the choice to send the following PMs to a good, unspoiled member of the kingdom: This was correctly reported and thusly spoiled the good janitors Sean and Tarrant. To meet a measure of justice I hereby strip the astr0creep of all rank and chain and banish it to the RRP...

    I actually switched to rube 2H when I set the game up to have demonic magnus invading us. Against all other opponents, though, the orator baccus sword is superior. This is especially true on any siege fights.

    I don't really care whether the President called the act terrorism or not, but there's really nothing plausible to call this except terrorism. Detonating an IED in a civilian area is terrorism no matter the reason it was done.

    finally got around to watching this episode. I can't believe they followed Jaimie's scene with that musical score, shit had me in tears while my wife was completely shocked.

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    I'd love it if our govt started mining asteroids. Obama recently signed a directive to do so but the amount they're doing is not enough. Besides, you should start bitching about safety problems when people start talking about throwing asteroids at earth.

    The Hunger Games: Catching Fire

    What you say makes sense, but the movie didn't really cover that. And that shit would've splintered the second they realized they were the only real group. And it's different from survivor in that: 1. People in survivor are forced to be teammates 2. People in survivor actually need each...

    iirc map speed depends on: 1. Your parties' highest pathfinding skill. 2. How large your party is. 3. The speed of the members in your party ( I think this allows higher movement for elite infantry and cavalry but I could be wrong) 4. How many prisoners you have. 5. Whether you have extra...

    The Hunger Games: Catching Fire

    I still haven't gotten a good answer about how the antagonist kids could just sit there and circle-jerk each other while hunting down the weak kids. If it's a one-man-survives death match how comfortable could you be in a group? Especially if you were the top seed. Also lol @ Philip Seymour...

    you're not and it never made sense to me that she'd have such a problem with the decision. The slavemaster acceptign the idea that dragons are like dogs and can be controlled like them makes sense since he has such an opinion of humans, but it never made sense that Daenarys would have such an...

    Regarding news, it's pretty hard to cover a story like this on a news show without quickly leaning on bullshit. TV just isn't a very good medium for coverage like this compared to the internet.

    It'd be foolish to comment on this as it unfolds (Though I'm sure hundreds of reporters are doing exactly that) but I can't help but think that person is only in custody because he's Arabic. And frankly if I was arabic and people thought I was involved I might want to be under guard anyway.

    North Korea goes full retard

    I agree with this. However I do find fault with the response of "We, the afgan govt, will not do shit unless you prove Bin Laden did something wrong." I'm not saying that we were willing to peacefully negotiate Bin Laden's extradition to the US, I'm just saying that if that's the extent of...

    North Korea goes full retard

    No, I'm saying that if a person known to be in the US were to commit a grave terrorist act that killed thousands of people that the US government wouldn't need the country that act was committed in in order to make the determination that the person was involved. If, for example, some...

    I would hope that we would have our own investigation and wouldn't need another government to provide evidence in order to make that determination.

    North Korea goes full retard

    Thanks for the link. I wonder if that was a legit compromise for a govt that was pressured from within and outside, and I wonder if the US was more compliable if we could've gotten Bin Laden without bloodshed. Of course I also don't even know what evidence we had that Bin Laden was guilty.

    North Korea goes full retard

    I'd love to read a good breakdown (with citations) of this chain of events. Though it seems like the kind of thing where you either trust what the maybe-guilty party (the US govt) says or you don't have much to go on.

    The big thread of game industry fuck ups

    Saying "The audience is ready" is wrong and stupid in its own right, but the following statement is much worse: "The answer lies in the question - as soon as players don't have to worry, they can only take into account the benefits that those services bring.". That statement reads like some kind...
