I thought Tim Cain said you can use dialogue against the final bad guy. I haven't beat the game, so I don't know.

I quoted you contradicting yourself. I made it explicitly clear where and how you are lying. And that makes me a liar? Yes, Jags and I are declaring a draw. And now that this game is officially over, you're on my prestigious ignore list. I can repeat another 50 times how you lied exactly, but pathological liars won't admit when they are caught in lies. I am completely and utterly confident that people will see the truth in the matter.

A Perfect Circle - 3 Libras threw you the obvious and you flew with it on your back, a name in your recollection, thrown down among a million same. difficult not to feel a little bit disappointed and passed over when i've looked right through to see you naked and oblivious and you don't see me.but i threw you the obvious just to see if there's more behind the eyes of a fallen angel, the eyes of a tragedy. here i am expecting just a little bit too much from the wounded. but i see through it all and see you. so i threw you the obvious to see what occurs behind the eyes of a fallen angel, eyes of a tragedy. oh well. apparently nothing. you don't see me. you don't see me at all.

There are variants that are completely anonymous. In this variant however, the players know which players are in the game, so you can communicate freely. However, I will not announce which player is really controlling which country. The problem with a supposed completely anonymous game is that players shouldn't communicate at all, and it is far too easy for players to cheat.

He has been caught lying 3 times, and his only answer is to call me a liar. No actual facts, proof or anything like that. I have an open and shut case on him and all he has done is back-pedal and misdirect.

Exactly. It only makes sense to have her killed as well on Katarr so that she is dead no matter what. It is one less loose-end.

You're not very good at misdirection, but you sure like to use it all the time. You accused me of lying with no proof. The mods have told me that when you accuse someone of lying you better have proof, otherwise the comments are considered flames. I present proof how your statements contradict. I quote you. Have you proven that I lie, or do you merely attempt to divert blame? And your analogy was so ridiculous that I threw out a humorous remark. Your comments usually don't merit serious discussion, but if you must know, you said: That is apples and oranges if I ever saw it. The average person who views the Super Bowl couldn't suit up for a high school game, let alone a college game, let alone a semi-pro game, let alone a pro game, let alone the Super Bowl. How does that apply to a game we all were able to play immediately? You have said that you feel I picked up the game rather quickly. It doesn't take much to learn the ins-and-outs of this game. Yet, even still I made mistakes and illegal moves which you caught. The reason you catch such moves and haven't made any mistakes as a GM is because you do have a greater knowledge of the game than any of us. You tried to downplay that knowledge after bragging about it. Then you back-pedalled and lied about the whole affair. You then claimed that you only knew the game from the website, only to contradict statements that you own the game and discussed it at great length with friends. You also made a statement that you "never saw a game where that happened" making it clear that even if you haven't played the game, you have seen entire games. Does that make you more familiar than players who haven't even heard of the game? Yes. Is familiarity a form of experience? Yes. Are you more experieneced? Yes. Did you lie about it? Yes.

You could have used this one:

Fallout 2 can be beat in 20 minutes. I don't know if it is technically possible to beat Arcanum without killing anyone, but that is what Tim Cain claimed. I also recall Spector claiming you only needed to kill like 2 people to beat Deus Ex.

I did debate in high school if you can't tell. A HUGE part of formal debate is defining terms. Given the quoted definition (from dictionary.com) Lucas is an auteur. You can certainly argue that auteur has another connotation, but it is not listed as a second definition of the word. I was pursuing indie film before the guys who the cameras and equipment decided to bail. I still have some scripts and would love to get into indie film if I had the money. I read alot of filmmaking. Ask Sarah. I'm a HUGE film geek. I have most often seen auteur used in derogatory fashion, though there is debate over it. One might quote Peter Jackson as a recent success as an auteur director, whose singular vision kept his films consistent and seemless in their immersion into a fantasy world. Others cite Lucas as a failure in auteur directing and why it is a bad idea.

China has flown missles over Tibet and Taiwan in addition to detonating small "test" nuclear blasts in their vicinity. And don't forget East Timoor. Did they learn anything from Tiananmen Square?

So they creatured new textures for the low-res models, but didn't create new textures for the high-res models from Blue Shift? If they had to make a new set of textures to begin with, why use the older models?

It's not just you. He's compared the entire industry to his recent experiences with Baldur's Gate, a game which is older than two games he mentioned he enjoyed in the same post (Icewind Dale 2 and Planescape: Torment). <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I think he is waiting for FFVII to be released.

I quoted the relevant text. I'm demonstrating that you lied about first learning about the game online. The rest of the post wasn't relevant to that point. Quoting it out of context suggests that I altered the spirit of your post. All I am saying is that you owned the game, and talked about it with friends, and that contradicts other statements by you. You can attack my style of posting but that doesn't change the fact that you've been caught in another lie. Again, who doesn't answer rebuttals?

Not necessarily, but most of the Jedi died. It would seem a logical place for her to have met her end.

Lots of planned stuff got cut.

Same here, but not for $400 at launch. I *might* talk Sarah into letting me get one say in a year or so after launch if it drops down to the $300 range for the uber-version.

No. You said that everything you learned about the game stems from what you saw online. Actually owning the game for a while, having the manuals in hand, and discussing the game with your friends constitutes having knowledge of the game well before researching it online. It demonstrates that you lied yet again.

http://thesaurus.reference.com/search?q=experience Experience is a synonym of familiarity. Were you considerably more familiar with Diplomacy than any of the other players? Yes. Did you brag about your experience? Yes. Did you outright lie and get caught in it when you said you had less experience than me? Yes. Who here doesn't answer rebuttals?

That is why every league I've ever seen requires a majority vote and not an unanimous vote. You said plainly that as a rule unanimous is fair, but majority isn't. I made two clear examples, one within Diplomacy, and another outside of Diplomacy in a similiar play-online game to demonstrate how it isn't fair in either case. You're trying to side-step the facts.

At one point in time, but in much the same way Romans called all their conquered people Romans, so did the Mandalorians. Mira wasn't a slave, and yet she plainly told you she was a Mandalorian. Was she female? Yes. Was she a Mandalorian? Yes. Mandalore himself said that Mandalorians recruited people all the time. Being a Mandalorian meant simply joining the cause.

Did you play up how knowledgable you were? Yes. Did you attempt to completely downplay it later? Yes.

I don't see why the model format would change with or without steam. Wouldn't it be a very simple mod given the SDK has been released to port the HD models from HL1 to HL:S?

I believe Tim Cain said it was possible to beat Arcanum without killing anyone. I don't know if that is really the case.

There are tons of styles of mangas, from cute girly fluff, homoerotic comedy, dark Frank Miller stuff, hard-core sci-fi, etc.
