I watched Ep3 a few days ago...
I definitely vote No on the "Nooooooo." The Yoda/Palpatine endfight, I was laughing so hard the entire time, what with all the "evil" cackling 'ol Palpy was doing. So over-done it almost reaches goodness, in a certain kind of way. But I think that was the best of the prequels...it was fun to watch visually at least.

Rate my story
I'd definitely read a sequel or revision if you wanted to write one. I like vampire/horror type stories. Tho I never did get into Anne Rice. I read it on-line in about 8 minutes. If I printed it on paper it'd be less; reading on-screen is always slower for me. I may read somewhat faster than average, but the length seems fine for a 'fast read' intent.

I'm glad I don't care about spoilers for this show.

Which is the coolest opening crawler?
Continuous off-topic spam talking about too much spam is still spam and disrupts the thread. Thread pruned a little.

Star Wars: Force Unleashed
To prune or to close, that is always the question...

Deadwood thread
Never saw it. At least, I don't think so. Sometimes I turn on the TV and something is on, and I watch it a while w/out ever knowing what it is, then I turn it off. I've been watching Eureka tho. It's all right.

That comment (and picture) just cries out for more photoshopping....if only I wasn't so tired...

I'm thinking about going to bed early.

The multiplayer factor...
There was initially some gripes about GW for that reason - they bought it because of the Guild WARS (PvP/arena) and the idea that they could instantly make a top lvl chr and jump into the fray, and then discovering in order to create a truly unique character they had to play the PvM game to level up/grind and find stuff. I don't think The Architect was suggesting that Kotor3 (if there ever is one) should be a multiplayer game. Just that it had a simple option for players to ener a static arena and pummel each other with their sabers. Something akin to what Drakan tried to do, perhaps.

Movies You Have Seen Lately
Went out to dinner and saw PotC2. The ending was kinda fun, plus a few other funny moments, but eh...the first one was a lot better. I don't think I'd call the 2nd one trash, but it's pacing was way off.

Rate my story
Story concept and battle imagery: 8 Writing, grammatical flow and emotional impact: 4.5 I mean absolutely no offense, but the flow of the sentences/paragraphs feels too staccato and abrupt, which isn't my thing. It's too much sterile description of only the action and not enough of the characters emotional/thought reactions or involvement, if that makes sense, leaving me with little to draw me to the character/s. In terms of flow, if I may make a suggestion: I find reading my stuff out loud, like you're reading a speech for a class, helps me find spots that may feel too jarring. Of course, that's just my own preferences and opinion - figuring out your own voice is the most important thing. Keep at it and you may have something here.

The multiplayer factor...
I don't know any on-line game that costs $40 a month. $15-20 usually. US dollars that is. I understand/respect the principle of not wanting to pay, but for me, I pay more than that for a pizza so I if I really want to play something, I don't mind the cost to at least try it for a while.

The first, unaltered Star Wars that I saw when I was...well, when I was younger.

Tremors2. Not as good as the first but the 'new guy' joke always amuses.

I'm thinking about how almost all 'horror' movies are now PG-13.

Picture Thread 2006
*steals kaftan's wig* Always wondered what I'd look like as a blonde. Haha, great pic.

What are you thinking?
I think sometimes we all need to remember that not everyone has what is often called a 'thick skin' - or the same sense of humor. Also, my skin itches and it makes me think about tossing the cats in the bathtub.
-
The multiplayer factor...
I wouldn't use the feature myself, but I see no (non-tech) reason not to have it in there as long as it worked like The Architect suggested...aka that it wasn't part of the SP/rpg game, just a MP option tha unlocks when you finish the game once. But I think it would be better/make more sense to create a seperate game for those who want Jedi action/PvP.

Post your favorite kotor 1/ kotor 2 mods
Never used any mods besides modifying a few things in the editor thingie, even tho some have looked pretty cool. I tend to have a green game-mod thumb.

Getting a claw stuck in your finger as the owner of the claw tries to dash away in a spooked panic is rather painful.

The Happiest Country is....Denmark?
I like how the article states the guy admits that "collecting data based on well-being was not an exact science." r00fles. Well, perhaps from a mass-population psychology point of view it could be interesting but...

Haven't played in over a year. HUD seems too big.
My understanding is that while the video card is typically the major thing, if one's CPU is too 'old' then well, it can't take advantage of the advanced card so much (bottleneck). So CPU can be a factor. But if you have a fairly 'modern/speedy' PC and an older card, the card is then the bottleneck. Depends a bit I guess.

What are you thinking?
Interesting combo. :D I'm thinking about what a pretty day it is outside now that it's not 110 degrees. And that the pool is 85F w/out a cover on. Warm.
