Well like I said in my post, with ultra settings and DX10 the game barely ran, so it wouldn't surprise me if my video card didn't support 11.

I see, thanks! In general I think both livestreams and youtube "Let's Play" videos are incredibly boring. However, I do love me some Robbaz, Kind of Sweden on you tube.

It sounds like she's well aware of who you are and thinks you'd be great for the job. I'd just wait till late January and see if you get contacted. If you don't hear anything from the director/HR director by early February I'd shoot her a quick e-mail and mention it.

I'm pretty sure you can wait till level 20 and buy the riding skill with gold, like any other skill. You only have to pay Turbine Points for it if you want it earlier (level 5?). Edit: Grim1 said it better than me. That's what I get for leaving my half-finished post open for several minutes...

Serious question: why no youtube channels? What's the difference between people who do "Let's Play" style videos on youtube and the links you gave?

DX10 with everything maxed. I'm not sure DX11 was an option when I took these pictures, although I may be misremembering. I know it was the highest settings allowable using the in-game graphics settings because the game barely ran on my pc when I was taking those pictures.

I found the pictures I had posted on FoH. Here's a couple of them. These are about a year old now and they were taken with the highest graphics settings/AA:

Whether it turns out good or bad I'm going to give it a shot at least. I'm happy to see something a little different on TV for a change and I'll support it unless it's absolutely abysmal.

It's been a while but I vaguely remember something about how each vagina demon requires an immense amount of energy or lifeforce or whatever from the king, and Stannis has pretty much used his up so they can't use that get out of jail free card again.

I had posted about a dozen high res screenshots on FoH. I'll see if I still have them on my pc later today. I still think LOTRO is one of the best looking MMO's out there right now, especially considering how old it is. Not only are the graphics crisp and the animations generally good, but...

Worst Star Wars game ever (except for a couple levels, which were awesome).

I didn't mean to imply that you don't know what you're doing or that you're some kind of idiot. Sorry if it came out that way. My post was phrased pretty badly. What I meant was that if she and you are both texting so passionately and frequently (and successfully at least, kudos on closing...

When I was a kid we had our NES and SNES set up next to each other, each with a separate little TV. After Super Mario All Stars came out, my brother and I would each pick a machine and we'd race through Super Mario 3 to see who could beat the game first. Needless to say, I knew the ins-and-outs...

Like Famm said, around Baltimore Flacco isn't hated nearly as much as people in the rest of the country would think. I was at a restaurant/bar 20 minutes outside of Baltimore last night during the Ravens/Broncos game and I countedat least7 Flacco jerseys. And yes, I think most of them were on...

If you're really texting that much after your first date then you're already fucking it up. She's going to get bored with you fast.

Ugh Baltimore is a terrible city and now I have to deal with their terrible fans for another week.

I've been trying to think of something for a while that I really couldn't live without, but I just can't come up with anything. I've lived for weeks without hot water (in winter, no less), been places where electricity would go out randomly for days at a time, lived more than 4 months without...

It never ceases to amaze me how much time, effort, and money people are willing to put into "solving" obesity when all it takes is a little willpower and motivation. I love the fact that it's from the same guy who developed the Segway. Now people can ride around all day eating unhealthy shit...

I drastically cut down my drinking last June (in combination with other lifestyle changes, like going to the gym and overall healthier eating) and I've never felt better in my life. I used to do kind of like you described...an occasional beer or two but at least a few days of very heavy drinking...

Gotta make at least a couple movies every year for the black folk to hoot and holler at in the theater.

I didn't say they were close to the books, I said they were almost perfectlytranslated, meaning that the (necessary) changes which were made to the story/plot/characters did not hurt the movies. Taking a book and putting it on-screen without any changes to account for the different medium is...

Daikatana made me its bitch.

Not to mention the fact that all the people working the cash registers at Taco Bell aren't in a hurry to post in this thread. Results are skewed (much like the real life picture thread).

I saw your username as the latest post in this thread. Needless to say, I am disappointed.

It's not that I don't expect him to die, but I was talking more about the random deaths that you don't expect. If a big player dies it will be pretty predicted due to the episodes leading up to it. I think Manny's death was a good example. Until that final minute or two when he was talking to...

Well like I said, I didn't agree with all of the changes Jackson made to The Hobbit. However, Christopher Tolkien was unhappy with how the LOTR were changed as well, and I think it's pretty generally accepted by most book fans that they were almost perfectly translated into film.

Christopher Tolkien is a pretentious fuckwad and if the LOTR and Hobbit movies had been made to preserve the "aesthetic and philosophical impact of the creation" they would have BOMBED at the box office. Why? Because shit like that doesn't translate well into movies, and even when done well will...

When the servers are up I'll try to find a time to play a practice match with Djay. *edit* That's what I get for not refreshing the thread before posting. Oh well.

For me, the best thing it has going for it is some pretty great action scenes. It's refreshing to have a stable camera so you can actually see what's going on instead of all that shaky/blurry shit that seems popular nowadays. Plus the choreography seems stellar with the all the flipping...

I hate the bloated Best Picture category nowadays. Adding more films doesn't make it any more exciting or interesting. Hell, I can guarantee that Life of Pi and Zero Dark Thirty stand absolutely zero chance of winning against a film like Lincoln. Why are they even put into the category?

I'm in the same boat. I've always liked the Happy Hour first date due to the low cost/time/risk to reward ratio. However, the chick I just started dating gave up drinking a while ago. With her I opted to grab a light dinner after work and it went well. My suggestions for you are: 1) Go to...

Shitty situation. No offense, but going by what you described in your post, the bulk of your family seem like worthless pieces of shit and judging by the treatment you received as a child you don't owe them one damn thing. I'll just echo what everyone else in this thread has said: get out...

Yeah this is true, but if he's going to do it anyway he might as well do it right so his success chances go from 0% to 1%.

There's nothing wrong with a phone call to ask someone out. She's not going to think "I would have gone out with him, but this fucker asked me out OVER THE PHONE? Nevermind!". The problem I see is that YOU feel like you're downgrading yourself by using the phone, and that will certainly be...

Anything written (letter, text, email, whatever) is a pussy move. I'd call her up after you're all done and ask her out. Don't apologize for not asking her in person. Anyway, I seriously doubt she's into you at all. More likely she's just being friendly. The fact that you don't even know her...

Haha that's a pretty brilliant comparison. Not only do they look the same, but their sexual appetites are equally as fucked up.

Handling disconnects shouldn't be too bad. The game is really good about giving some time (4 minute countdown I think?) and reconnecting if your internet comes back up. Seems like if you have an opponent disconnect, you're required to wait the full countdown and if the opponent doesn't come back...

That makes you sound incredibly retarded. I've played all sorts of video games while on a treadmill and never had that problem. You were probably one of those kids that used to lean their whole body to the left or right when playing driving games on the SNES.

I haven't had a ton of time to play lately, but I could easily fit in at least one game a week if we get a scheduled, official tournament going.

That sounds fairly technical and difficult. I'm surprised he only makes 24/hour, that's not very much at all.
