'Ol Yellow Eyes Cd - Brent Spiner hehehe
-
I haven't had 'good expectations' about people here in ages so no problem there. "

Does anyone know if the music is a known work? It sounds familiar but I can't place it.

Some really horrible straight-to-vid sort of mystery movie that hubby brought home. Although...I only half-watched it. That happens a lot. Edit - sorry, forgot a title...it was called Left Behind, and the most notable thing was that it had an almost unrecgonizable Kirk Cameron in it...quite freaky if you remember Kirk from..whatever that sitcom was that he was on way back when.

...it was 5am and I was bored. heh

I so rarely look in here since I'm not into PnP.... It took me a very long time to go through all the TOMB threads but it was well worth it. I laughed like a loon. Great stuff!

Yes. And cats/other animals. And many detergents/soaps/perfumes/flowers/grass. And pollens. Nose and rashes. No foods yet that I'm aware of, at least. :D

That's what TV's were originally intended for, but we all got loose anyway. :D As an adult, I mostly worry about identity theft. Small actual chance it'll happen to me, perhaps, but I don't need to up my odds by being careless either. There's a difference between living in fear and being practical about this stuff (kids or adult).

Heheh....another one I've never seen before. That was hilarious...a lot of time went into that one! **brain fart typo..
-
I have so many allergies I don't even notice if I'm sick, my head's so stuffed up all the time anyway. :D Sorry to hear you're under the weather...never fun.

Disciple. I just level up him up a few to several levels for more melee feats first (to lvl 12-13 or something) and then jedify him. He doesn't need maxxed/pumped up Force powers since...well...he rarely uses them unelss I'm not in the lead. And even without those extra Jedi levels his Force lightning ends up being just fine. He makes a great tank that way, still has decent Jedi powers, and the medical abilities. That, and I don't like playing as a male in this game, so Handmaiden isn't an option.

If you can change one thing about this forum...
LadyCrimson replied to Bokishi's topic in Way Off-Topic
I'm going to go out on a potential limb here and say that, since it's currently unused and empty and I'm once again frequently around, I'm willing to have my tiny forum be used as an 'off-flow' for off-topic topics that are closed and/or not appropriate for Obsidian's forums, where people here might want to continue on with the same group of folks. I've seen it all before, and I have no professional reputation to maintain. But you still couldn't post actual porn. Use it or don't, doesn't matter to me. Cheers. -
Overall, I'd agree with that.
-
Fixed. :D All this talking about 'thinking' games...makes me think it's time to install C3 again. Lugdunum here I come.
-
I'm not a kid and I still never give out my full name...not even in my 'official' email addresses. But I'm paranoid. Giving out personal identifiable info on the internet (or anywhere really), no matter what your age, is always risky. I think it's a good idea for a website to have some kind of age-screening system/policy, but if kids are determined, they'll find a way to join up etc. Parents keeping an eye on what they're kids are up to is the main line of defense for these sorts of things, IMO.

I'd be glad to send you my copy of the original B&W. I know nothing about Fable since I don't have a console. I might check out the sequel since it's on PC tho. Peter Molyneux has vision but Lionhead Studios lacks the execution I guess.
-
Just curious if you ever tried Black & White. I bought it because it was by the same guy who came up with DungeonKeeper, but I couldn't get into it...it did however have an interesting if perhaps underdeveloped element of good/evil actions affecting your environment. Last time I was at the game store I noticed his company had another game out with a similar aspect that sounded more advanced, but I can't remember it's name. EDIT: It's called Fable: The Lost Chapters 2nd edit: Actually doesn't sound that advanced...to quote the site:

LS/DS Different endings?
LadyCrimson replied to Jedi_Maverick's topic in Star Wars: General Discussion
The only noticable ending differences I remember are 1) the Mira & Hanhar sequence and 2) the fact the end conversation with Kreia is different at the end - ie, what she says happens to your buddies. It's been a while since I played tho. There are minor dialogue/confrontation/cutscene differences for LS/DS actions/status, but nothing that makes the game more enlightening or anything. -
While I go LS for influence, quests, and the fact I like it better when Disciple likes me rather than reviles me, I said grey since I also do some darkside stuff here and there. DS is fun tho...I like 'corrupting' my team members.

I could, and I do use Firedox, but that would mean I'd have to change things back every time I wanted to see a site's 'true' intended configuration. Don't worry, I know I'm lazy. I just keep a pair of sunglasses on my desk. -
'Thinking' in games, for me, comes from the ability to be creative within the game, to be not limited to one particular path, design, or solution, within the general 'rules' of the game. Caeasr3, for example. Many ways to successfully design a 'winning' city. Roller Coaster Tycoon, because of designing coasters and park layouts. Strategy games work too, although only if they allow for a lot of variation in gameplay or have something unique about them, such as DungeonKeeper or Majesty. I like puzzles, but I'm not very good at solving them if they're set up like IQ tests...Myst was great, but Riven was too much of a brain-strain without a walkthrough to be fun for me. And if I may add...running an obstacle course 20 times to figure out the right path to avoid being crushed by thumping blocks is not a puzzle to me.

Don't know if someone already posted this oldie, but I like it so I'm posting it. ----------- The Sound of Silence Hello darkness, my old friend, I've come to talk with you again, Because a vision softly creeping, Left its seeds while I was sleeping, And the vision that was planted in my brain Still remains Within the sound of silence. In restless dreams I walked alone Narrow streets of cobblestone, 'Neath the halo of a street lamp, I turned my collar to the cold and damp When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light That split the night And touched the sound of silence. And in the naked light I saw Ten thousand people, maybe more. People talking without speaking, People hearing without listening, People writing songs that voices never share And no one dare Disturb the sound of silence. "Fools" said I, "You do not know Silence like a cancer grows. Hear my words that I might teach you, Take my arms that I might reach you." But my words like silent raindrops fell, And echoed In the wells of silence And the people bowed and prayed To the neon god they made. And the sign flashed out its warning, In the words that it was forming. And the sign said, "The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls And tenement halls." And whisper'd in the sounds of silence.

Arnie's face is beginning to look a bit plastic by now, tho...

White text on dark backgrounds are more visually striking because of the contrast, but they are hard on the eyes for extended reading. On the other side, vast expanses of white/bright space on a glowing monitor screen is also hard on the eyes. Sites that are all white with a few columns of black text (on white) give me headaches. You could leave the background/headers black etc and just let the post backgrounds be lighter. -
I most certainly have never felt that not having a date/boyfriend/spouse makes me somehow unsuccessful or something. I'd much rather be alone then with someone just for the sake of being with someone.
