    I didn't realize the BB did, I thought that was just the SBB. That's pretty crap.

    People who judge lifters legs on just their calves are assholes. Unless you're a former fat guy, your calves are almost completely genetic. If the guy has tiny quads, go ahead and ridicule him. But you can't see shit in basketball shorts.

    I wouldn't bother with quests too much if you've got some metal keys. Start maxing out some of your units instead.

    Yes, go back and finish St Lamia. I don't know why they open up those areas so early, but I ran into the same problem. The difficult in Cordelica and Amdahl ramps up incredibly fast as you progress through the zones. Finishing St Lamia is comparable to the 3rd or 4th zone of Cordelica. Also...

    I've had a few idols drop from the honor summon. Not sure if any spirits, and definitely not totems. And I'm not sure, Neph. I've only run the miracle totem once before today. I had to burn up quite a few potions to make it through this morning. But then, I also didn't have Grahdens to fall...

    Think I did 5 runs total, only 1 god. But then I also had probably 2:1 on kings:ghosts. Unfortunately the metal mimic costs 200k to make. So I'm about 270k short on being able to 6* evo my Lira.

    I was about to ask if you could get gods from them. So far it's just ghosts and kings for me, in 4 runs. Pretty annoying.

    Chrome update 37 WTF

    I use them when I need more precise scrolling than the mousewheel gives. It's not something I notice myself ever doing, but once they were gone I noticed that I apparently used them often enough to be annoyed when they were gone.

    Oh, I agree. But I don't see it ending anytime soon (maybe after he retires?). You've got to imagine a lot of people in the NFL corporate structure are regretting signing off on that one.

    For how many more years do you think people will bring up Ray Rice whenever a player gets suspended? The NFL really didn't do themselves a favor with that one.

    Chrome update 37 WTF

    I'm not home to see if it's updated yet, but I swear they've made some baffling decisions with Chrome. The biggest one that stands out is when they removed the arrow buttons on the scroll bars. Like, who's the asshole idiot who signed off on that being a good idea?

    So I got it installed on my SSD and did the 1-10 run. It hitches every 30 seconds or so when I'm running around. This definitely wasn't there pre-CBT4, and the SSD didn't fix anything.

    And here I did one hoping to get a 2nd Lira, and instead of Elsel. I'm actually happy with that because once I level her up some I can finally replace my Eze on rainbow team.

    That's why I said in the first post that I'm pretty sure the suspension is less about him deserving it and more due to reputation. I've been pretty surprised that the Redskins keep bringing him back. But I guess when your team is that crappy, you just make due with what you can.

    Saw it during the game. It was a hard hit, but it was shoulder to chest. Helmets were incidental. That said, he's a dirty player always going for the knockout hit. So even though it was clean, his reputation earned him a suspension.

    Maybe the problem is you're on alpha, TecKnoe. I've been doing the Halcyona stuff on beta and it's enjoyable. Plus random 1v1 out in the wild. And yeah, I don't think anyone who's played it sees this one lasting 6+ months. It'll be a blast for the first month or two though.

    One of the Redskins fans made a similar argument about how Pierre Garcon wasn't used much in the preseason, and that meant we shouldn't worry about RG3. But there's a difference between "not used much" in preseason and "forgot basic football fundamentals" in preseason.

    I didn't have any latency issues until this beta test (played CBT 1-4). I did notice some lag while on my clipper at sea during CBT3, and I had read that people in alpha had been noticing excessive lag there (not sure if this was graphics or latency related though). My issues in CBT4 were...

    The lag I read was due to a DDoS that effected multiple games. That doesn't explain the lag from alpha, or that was going on prior to when they said the DDoS happened though.
