And he was wiped from existence when his earth-1 ancestor got killed. Which is the best proof you need that he was from this version of Earth.

I did a rewatch of the first 6 ep this saturday, and I agree. It does feel a lot better if you chain the episodes. I'm still going to watch every ep as they come, but I'll probably rewatch the entire series when ep 10 comes out.

Side note: your weekly kill of Kazzak gives you 1000 apexis as well.

I think that's why they finally split PvP/PvE in Legion. At one point, it ceases to be a guiding principle and becomes a stupid idea that should have died long ago.

Iron Fist as 4th series, not the Defenders. Although it was an implicit possibility.

It's only useful while you're starting out. Once you've filled your garrison with your treasure hunter/scavengers, you don't need it anymore. There's nothing really important to replace it however. You may add a disenchant cabinet; disenchanting baleful to make enchanter mats yields more gold...

I usually queue my followers twice a day. Takes me 6-7mn for 10 characters, but that's because I'm only sending them on money making missions, that is: gold, GR, and tokens. You convert GR into gold (I don't both with mats, I straight out buy bag of golds) at the trading post, and sell back...

In the books, he's the joke cop. The cop the boss gives stuff that she doesn't want to get solved, like, I don't know, the case of the father wanting Julie Mao, OPA operative currently on assignment on the Scopuli. After Havelock scrams out of Ceres, his new partner finally break the news to him...

MTV. That's what explains all of the above. Yup.

Side note: that's exactly one of the major plot points of 11.22.63 (the time travel novel from Stephen King, soon on your small screen).

My guess is that you have a single artifact power pool. Meaning you'll be able to earn artifact power as a healer, and spend it on whatever protection artifact there is. I don't think there's going to be a catch-up that gives you "free" artifact power if you've already invested it in another...

Only 4 episodes left. Plot points dangling

It's complicated.

Ok, you have two repeats about some "bioweapon" in this episode, just before Miller gets his ass fired for being too competent for once. (he's supposed to be a joke of a cop, if you haven't guessed. Dawes stresses the point, although you may not understand the context) My own speculation is...

Depends on the nature of the "intervention". A state must regulate markets; fully unregulated markets lead to inefficients/dysfunctional markets due to various effects, including monopolies, cartels, monopsonies, and all kind of funky and unexpected stuff and so on. However, deciding what the...

Side note: it's not as if there's not precedent enough for this in SF: That's basically the On-Off star used inA Deepness in the Skywhere Transcendent technology is used to temporarily modify local space-time and enable advanced computing systems that are otherwise impossible, and they use the...

And, presumably, that's why they did it, straight out of the box, in the very first scenes. "This is not just a Lord of the Rings copy" is a necessity in a world where The Hobbit trilogy just finished last year and having played Gollum(!!!) is a major career move for an actor.

QFT. You had half a second early in the first episode to tell you that real shit is coming, and that's all until probably "Windmills" (ep 7).

More of the same, roughly. I'm not even sure I picked the 4th book.

You could argue that it's more gory, since instead of blowing the station, he leads an assault with a company of space marines. He has orders to retake the station for the corp. that owns it, not to blow an expensive piece of infrastructure to bits. His marines kill every defender they encounter...

They are much closer than they started with at the end of ep 1. when the Canterbury was blown up. They started with fighting against each other, and they're now at the point where they agree to disagree. It's just a slower process than need to. The episode felt less of a filler episode than I...

Note that The Laundry Files is completely separate universe from A Colder War; the only common point is basically that Lovecraft was right. The Laundry Files is not a cold war series, it's started as "computer geek is made an offer he can't refuse to work controlling magic for her Majesty's...

If you are capped on your upgrades already, yea. Otherwise, you need to sacrifice 5 +5 ilvl upgrades for one +3 ilvl upgrade.

Both Mad Max and The Martian arenominated to the Producer Guild Awards for Best Movie, which are supposedly good predictor for Oscars. Both are also at the top of the weighted list of Rerolled. We're also good predictors for Oscar nominations, right?

Want fake fantasy? Grab the Merchant Princes series, which was reissued in omnibus form:The Bloodline Feudis the first volume, see the 3 books combo in "frequently purchased". It's interesting because it was officially marketed as fantasy because Stross contracts were preventing him from...

Got relatively lucky with mine; I simply put all the spawn points on Tomtom, and flew across all. Spotted one visiting a bit over a dozen of them, grabbed, done.

Here's a pic of Billie Lourd in the movie; she might indeed be the one you saw in a later scene. You're not the only one who think they saw Sutherland there, although he's not mentioned anywhere on the mainstream movie sites so it might be a lookalike.

At one point, you should bite it and start collaborations. A lot of authors that find themselves bogged into popular series get an additional author in to revive their own motivation. Clarke was bugged all the time about making yet another sequel to 2001, so he picked Baxter and went at it...

Dark Matter is weak, and Killjoys felt a bit formulaic. But 12 Monkeys is a pure joy to watch. Can't wait for the big reveals on exactly what Jennifer Goines means in the show.

All of them are dancing around the elephant in the room.

He is. It's just that A Song of Ice and Fire was not, and never has been his "magnum opus", the way everyone wants it to be. His longest storyline (Wildcards) stayed on course because he didn't write it himself apart for a few stories here and there. His only problem is the show. Without the...

If you happen to pick the Creepy Crawlies Halloween decoration, you have half a dozen pets in your garrison on an insta respawn. First is always undead, the other two are random for the zone. Plus you have the pet mistress that can heal your pet team. If you tore down your decorations for...

Hmmm, forgot that one. Should be looking to do it at least from time to time...

The pineapple one, but I'm on EU realms, so that's probably not going to be possible.

Saw an article on Disney's current strategy, and they are clearly edging their bets on their IP collection (witness SW). They are not that confident that a copyright extension is going to be possible.

I stopped farming the dailies after my mount, doing the Greench daily is more time consuming due to medium ass travel in old world and I still ended up with 1 Lounge Cushion missing. With 10 characters. The one brought at your garrison decoration goblin is a toy, not a pet. The pet tonk is a...

There's two who don't have Mad Max AT ALL.

Ok, so new years average list (score 5,4, 3, 2, 1 for top 5 choices, 1/2, 1/3 1/4 and so on the rest) yields 5 top contenders: Top 1 uncontested: Mad Max: Fury Road (average 4.27) Top 2-3: Star Wars episode 7 (average 2) and The Martian (average 1.85) Top 4-5: Kingsman (average 1.11) and Ex...

That, or they were "I know George too much, no way I'm doing that with him breathing on my neck..."

Seconded. The fun bit is that Amazon usually displays upcoming Baen & Tor books two months before their own websites list them. It used to be that you could search for books and tick them as "I have it" directly, but they dropped that (why? oh why?) and you can only do that from...
