    Might & Magic X: Legacy

    As far as exp discrepency, someone in the party always gets more EXP when things dont divide evenly by 4. I've seen my characters get like 35,33,33,33 exp from a kill. I wonder if the game always dumps the leftover exp on one particular character slot, like maybe the first one? I almost...

    The Beer Thread

    Tallgrass Vanilla Bean Buffalo Sweat is a damn tasty beer. I'm not a huge fan of their normal Buffalo Sweat, its not bad, but not great either, just "meh", but the Vanilla Bean variety is very, very good. It's actually pretty light for a stout, not even as thick as a guinness. It has a pretty...

    Las Vegas

    Downtown is fun for one evening of your trip, and that's about it. It's just old, smokey casinos and really cheap food for the most part. The Freemont street light show is interesting to see once, but staying down there for your entire trip would suck IMHO. It's not a far cab ride from the...

    Olympics Thread

    Seriously, it's about the equivalent of having the Winter Olympics in Myrtle Beach South Carolina. It's like 50-60 degrees daytime high during February there. The average temp doesn't even dip below freezing at night.

    Seriously consider the Nook HD+ over a Kindle Fire HDX. Yes, the Nook isn't quite as powerful, but the screen is still plenty good(your video files aren't going to be more than 1080p anyways, and the Nook has a higher resolution than that, just not as high as the 1600p Kindle), but the Nook is...

    Might & Magic X: Legacy

    I hope it does continue on after the game's current ending. After the game ends, they do give you control of your party again to do whatever you want(if you have sidequests to finish up), it doesn't just end, so that had to be on purpose for continuing on with DLC. And yeah, once you go...

    I wonder where the disparity is between ESPN and Rivals on class sizes. Rivals shows Tennessee with 31 commits, ESPN shows 36. Huge class regardless, but it's odd that they are that far off.

    So does that pickle soup end up being creamy/thick, like a potato soup? I might try that out, kinda looks like potato soup with pickles.

    Just finished the game on normal difficulty. Damn fun game. The ending was pretty decent for a low-budget game. I had 1 character at level 33, everyone else was at lvl 32, and I had one of the 10% bonus EXP guys in my party probably from the beginning of act II until the end of the game...

    Yeah I need to actually find a few more decent shows to watch. I usually have 2 or 3 shows tops that are in-season at any given time. Right now I'm watching Archer, True Detective and Shameless and that's it, so about 2.5 hours of TV a week. Once those are over it will be just about time for...

    I'm just giving my personal experience. I'd generally have to set my upload and download limit both WELL under half my theoretical maximum to not noticeably hamper other internet traffic on my network(which is why I recommended the 1/4 mark). Could it be that number of connections also tied...

    Which is awesome in theory, but I've never seen my cable modem work properly like that. I can max out my connection either up or down to my seedbox when FTPing a file, and maxing either up or down absolutely kills all other internet access on my network. If I'm downloading a 20gig blu-ray...

    Also consider the combo of your upload/download speed. Say you have an internet connection that is 10mbps down and 2mpbs up If you allow your upload to run at 1mbps, then that's basically chewing up half of your available bandwith. If you are then allowing your download to max out at 5...

    Seems like every midsize and small SUV is going towards the same look. Small triangular back window, to where it looks like the rear of the car comes to somewhat of a point, usually with a spoiler or whatever overhanging the back window, extending the roofline

    Not that I would condone this(well, maybe I would because fuck Best Buy) but he could just buy a projector at Best Buy and then return it for a refund when his trip was over. I think they have a 15 day return policy on electronics(TVs, receivers, etc)

    I used to hit the KFC buffet in college all the time. It was awesome because it had stuff that wasn't on the regular menu at the time like chicken fried steak and chicken livers. The chicken fried steak was basically the little patties like you used to get in school lunches.

    I could never find a sweet spot, which was a big reason why I got a seedbox.

    Yeah, I'm not a big fan of any meat in rotel/queso dip. I just want the cheese and peppers(and maybe spinach) and that's it. I'm very much a meat lover, but not in cheese dip.

    At what point were you guys ok with your babies sleeping on their stomach? Our kid can't crawl yet, but he rolls with ease in every direction, and will even roll completely across a room, so getting stuck on his stomach isn't an issue. My wife still freaks out everytime she see's him on...

    We did the pepperoni dip...wasn't overly thrilled with it. It just didn't have a lot of flavor really. Might as well have just eaten bagels with cream cheese. I reheated some tonight to give it another try, and added a little garlic to give it some extra flavor, but now it just tastes like...

    Pampers here as well. Which sucks because we have a membership to Coscto but all they sell are their own brand(Kirkland) and Huggies, and neither is as good as Pampers. I guess Sams Club carries Pampers, but fuck getting a membership to somewhere I'd only go for diapers. And I know some...

    I've always heard the NY water argument when people talk about bagels, that bagels elsewhere in the country just don't taste the same. So what's so fucked up about NY water that it makes any food product that has water in it taste different?

    They should just stick the b-ball court in the middle of the football field and then fill the entire lower bowl. Probably same amount of people, except everyone would be able to see the game(though none of the seats would be great)

    You have better odds of winning the powerball multiple times than filling out a perfect bracket. Read somewhere that if every human on Earth filled out a bracket, the odds would still be more than a billion to one that someone would have a perfect bracket.
