Oh no! Has someone used FORCE CONFUSION on you? 1 (4n'7

What a sad, sad lot that numbers of pages mean more than relevant discourse. If you have a REAL conversation span this many pages, you'll get my kudos.

Ender shakes his head and walks away.

So long as it was upfront, and not the big plot secret, I'm down with that.

That's why I said if they come to America to become Americans, I consider them Americans. Foreign citizens visiting the country aren't Americans.

Nope, I totally agree. That's why I'm more concerned with getting suggestions into the type of game we'd like to see for their next project.

Not to mention that they could see two different boxes. One full sized box for those who like to buy the game traditionally on CD, and a DVD-sized box for the DVD release.

Dark Empire was great. It gave us Nar Shadda, Cloned Emperor, E-Wings, a Dark Luke, Force Harmony, Holocrons, World Devastators, Eclipse-Class Destroyers, and mass carnage.

What about Nay-durs? Wait, they got punted.

I've still never played the Gothic series though I intend to. Morrowind was the only game I've played where I felt mounts and other transportation was really required.

The book in question is Dark Empire, which is a fantastic read. It's quite dark. Luke goes over to the Dark Side for a while and devastates the New Republic under the cloned Emperor. The Emperor turns him by saying that Luke would never understand his father, nor the true nature of the Force if he never tasted both sides. So Luke rationializes that if he is to become a Master, he needs a teacher, and if his father could resist the Dark Side to attone himself, that so could he.

If they came to this country to become American, they're American. And all Americans are American, not just Anglo-Americans. I work with an Indian girl in IT. She's Hindu, and speaks with a thick accent. But she is living in the states, and considers herself American. So, she's American in my eyes.

Then again, when you ASCII a silly question, you often get a silly ANSI.

Hey, I brought up Dresden. I am fully aware of how horrific it is. And The United States of America is a nation of foreigners. Other than the Native Americans, we're all originally foreigners. They came to this country, and became Americans. There by, their inventions are American inventions.

A big black bear walks into a bar, and says "bartender, I'm a big black bear, and I want a beer." The bartender says, "I'm sorry, but I can't serve beer to big, black bears in this bar." He points to a sign. The big, black bear gets all burly and says "damnit, I'm a big, black bear, and I'm thirsty. Now give me a beer." "No beer to big, black bears in this bar, bub." "But I'm a big, black bear, and I'll go eat that bitch at the end of the bar if you don't give me a beer." "Hey man, do what you gotta do, but I can't give you a beer." So, he goes down and rips the poor girl's head off and gobbles her up. Then he says, "Now I'm bloody, and I'm still a big, black bear. Now give me a beer!" "I'm sorry pal, but I can't serve a bear on drugs." "What?" "That was a bar bitch you ate."

I didn't need additional sources to respond to Ivan at the moment, because we were responding to the quotes he posted. And my points still stand. Often if you read one quote, and then read the next, you will see they are seperare statements that don't directly contradict each other. However, the headlines that Ivan put above them are contradictary. He is putting words in Bush's mouth. There is a big distinction between saying Al Qaeda had ties to Saddam, and saying Saddam orchestrated 9/11. Yet, Ivan's argument is based upon a bunch of instances where he assumes one statement has to include another. I'm not citing outside sources. I'm using his own sources, and simple logic shows that one statement does not necessary mean the other. I've put sources up here before, and I'll do it again, yet Mkreku's entire crutch is that I never have sources, and that sources made one right in a debate. Well, apparently, logic be damned. When I've quoted sources like CNN, you dismiss them as American biased despite the fact they report tons of Anti-American stuff every day. They also repeat news articles shown by Arabic news agencies, and CNN is considered one of the most trusted news sources in the entire world. I also demonstated where they ratted out Ted Turner (one of their principal owners) before the Atlanta Olympics. Yet, we can't trust them. But websites that have a track record of faulty reporting are fine. And Michael Moore is also a great source, even if he has a track record of lying, so long as he says what you want to hear. As far as your assualts on maturity, there is a world of difference between insulting Bush, insulting myself, and insulting all Americans. I'll give you free reign on the first two. However, considering how often you've insulted all "dumb Americans", you've demonstrated your inability to be objective. Your ignorance and hatred in the matter shines through. And while you constantly call me a Bush fanboy, I'm pretty quick to point out several of Bush's faults myself, and I didn't vote for him. Funny how you never respond to those comments.

"Honey! Where is my super-suit?"

Sometimes I think news wire services like the AP are a horrible thing. I see a headline on the AP. I paraphrase said story, and put it out as a new story. The problem is when information passes through multiple hands, it tends to change quite a bit.

You're probably right about Sentinels. Then again, I wonder if other characters will be able to do repair work. Usually if there is a workbench, it means you're alone on the Ebon Hawk. Awareness will also be a useful skill for dialogue options now.

I thought I heard that you could have a same-sex relationship with Juhani if you were female. Is that just BS?

You have to forgive me. I was raised on Thurber, Adams, and Calvin & Hobbes. Must make people smile or my brain melts. Then you'd probably like Eddie Izzard and Kevin Smith as well.

T3 needs something to be useful, or maybe a personality.

If the news are lies, then where do you get your facts from? And I've seen very few pro-Bush stories in the news. However, I can point to articles from a variety of news sources that say Al Qaeda and Iraq were linked. And I can show you people like Russia's Putin (who doesn't like Bush and has no reason to lie) who says that Iraq was going to attack the US. The head of the CIA said it too. As far as Cheney goes, most Vice Presidents either do nothing, or stay below our radar. Unless you're Quayle and you make an ass of yourself. And we're not making money off the oil in Iraq. We're spending US dollars fixing up their country. And yes, Halliburton is making money doing rebuilding in Iraq. Yet, no other company has demonstrated the assets and resources for such a large scale reconstruction project. And while Cheney had links to Halliburton, Cheney didn't give them any contracts. Everyone had to bid, and Congress voted on those bids. And plenty of people in Congress don't like Cheney. Rumsfeld isn't in charge of Homeland Security. Tom Ridge is. Rumsfeld has no personality what-so-ever. He comes across as a snake. And I don't really know what to give him credit for, or what to blame him for. The Joint Chiefs run the show in military operations. The Secretary of Defense makes policies, and budget decisions. That's it. As far as the Joint Chiefs go, I give them a 80% grade. They did an incredible job in the early stages of the war. It was one of the most successful wars in history, with minimal casualities despite Iraq using human shields, and putting their military vehicles and targets in hospital parking lots. However, they underestimated what it would take to establish a police force in Iraq. Again, I come back to wondering where you get your opinions from. How are you so sure of everything if the news is fabricated? You seem convinced that you know exactly what type of person Bush is and Cheney is. Can you tell me what they've done over the past 4 years?

Gizka loving!

I had plenty of money and equipment at the end of the game. And I had very few points in skills. I was Soldier/Guardian. I think you'll be able to use Repair with a low skill, but you'll likely need more parts.
