    I bought the AC version of that earlier this week. Really liking it so far. The only complaint I have (and the only complaint I've seen) is that there's no fan in it. So it gets quite warm. I should pick up a new SSD soon. I've got a 32GB one in my HTPC that really needs replacing, since it...

    Fucking Super Metals really needed two wait 2 or 3 days. I have absolutely no zel (21k). So while I'd love to hit it a few times, I can't since I can't fuse anything. I guess I could just keep expanding my box, but that sucks.

    Best show soundtracks?

    I haven't even got a clue if it was any good, but I'd guess that "My So Called Life" probably had a good one. And thinking of shows from that era I also think "Dead at 21" probably did too. Edit: Fuck, missed a big one. Beavis and Butthead.

    I'm not sure about the other teams with fucked up grass, but FedEx field ends up hosting all kinds of events and college games during the season. It really thrashes the field. And yeah, no shit they can grow grass there awesome. The rest of the country has this thing called seasons though...

    What are you listening to at the moment?

    Just heard this one on Hard Knocks. Kind of funny that Raconteurs was posted just above this, because I was going to post how the song kind of reminds me a Jack White type song with a female tilt (but not like Dead Weather). It also reminded me a bit of Lana Del Rey too. Haven't listened...

    There's going to be a CBT5? God damnit. This is getting a bit old. Just release the fucking thing already. Edit: Even worse, in the comments someone said that there's a possibility for CBT6 as well.

    Do you find that muramasa and foil are useless for questing/vortex? I basically don't change anything out. Currently my team has 1x foil, 2x muramasa, and 2x stat booster.

    That's crazy. And yeah, I had the same thought about the Redskins (obviously). I have no idea why anyone would be using anythingbutthe new turf. The Redskins and Niners in this circumstance really blows my mind. The Redskins with how much money they pull in and protecting their assets (RG3), and...

    Wish they'd give a date when the super metals will be. I need to start burning up some keys, and getting my units evo'd so I have something to feed them to.

    Yeah, I've heard ofwaytoo many people getting hacked in alpha and beta. Much more than even any released game should have. An authenticator is pretty much a requirement.

    Finally got my first 6* this morning; Dean. I'm almost fucking broke now though. 500k for the 6* upgrade. Still have an extra 9 cost on my current squad, too. Unfortunately, my current squad also only has one unit that can still be evo'd (Eze), as the rest don't have 6* versions right now. I...

    Oh, my bad. I was thinking of the glider prices, which are like 2.2k. I really have no clue what I want to use my credits on. I originally figured I'd spend pretty much all of them on expansion scrolls, but the amount of people selling them on the AH was obscene. I can get by for a week or...

    I tried a summon during this thunder event, and I wonder what the actual increase in drop rate is. I don't think I've ever had something drop from the increased table yet. Got an Alyut this time. Was really hoping for at least 1 thunder unit for the vortex arena. Only have Eze and Fennia as...

    That's a ton of credits to spend on something that'll basically last me for the head start (Lilyut for 10g should be easy enough, and mount gear starts dropping in the 2nd dungeon). While I anticipate it being crowded at head start, I doubt it'll be so ridiculous that 1 meter/sec will be the...

    I was going to say you probably have bad form, but if you recently broke them, that's probably not the case. Either way, this video is good for showing you how you should setup. The "So You Think You Can Bench Press" series is really good too, but I don't think Tate ever mentions bar...

    My first week in the gym I think I benched 55 or 65. Within 6 weeks I could do 135. It just takes time to develop. This was after I had been in the Army for 6 years. You'd think after all the pushups, dips, rope climbs, and other retarded crap you do in the military I'd have been better off.

    And? That was true. The guy can throw it on a dime for 60 yards just by flicking his wrist. In fact, he did it several times in the game last night. And it also goes into my above posts where I said he's an amazing athlete. The guy has a cannon for an arm and is extremely accurate...

    I don't know what it is with the Browns and QB's. I mean, look no further than the Weeden decision. Who in the fuck drafts a 30 year old QB in the first round? I'd say it's just a bad front office but that front office changes pretty regularly. It's like someone in the organization feels like if...

    I was never a huge fan of RG3 to begin with. Pretty sure I called the trade up to get him retarded. I was excited with the prospect of us finally having a QB, but it wasn't long into his first season that I called him out here for running around like an idiot. I'd say the area I got wrong was...

    That's a pretty dumb statement. RG3 may not be a world beater, but there are plenty of shitty QB's that still start for NFL teams. RG3 is still probably an average to above average QB depending on the day. That is, unless you're saying he'll be out of the league because of injuries. In that...

    RG3 is a better athlete than Luck. It's not even close. He's got a better arm and football instincts. But he can't read an NFL defense to save his life and his decision making process is shit. He's basically an upgraded version of Vick, although with better life decisions. JFF on the other...

    I'm curious what everyone plans on using their credits for. I've got the silver pack, and originally had planned on buying expansion scrolls. But I noticed they were down to like 10-15g per. If that holds true for release, I'd much rather pay gold for them. My other big thing I found useful...

    I think I'm going to ditch Primeval and go with Trickster. Teleport is nice, but the recast is long as crap. And then the only other skill I really gave a crap about was Shrug It Off. With Trickster I can pump out like 4 or 5 good CC abilities. Seems much more useful.

    Right, and that's what I meant. I don't see any particular reason for anyone to want to go to Auroria. It's literally vast hills of nothingness.

    Yesterday my router began to drop its broadcast every few hours. A power restart would fix it. This morning it wasn't broadcasting at all.
