I though that was a good one. It's about time someone started suggesting how games can be good. Otherwise how will the poor simps ever make good games?

Thanks, but now I'm confused. I thought Tutu was the 'gold standard' option, as baseline. EDIT: Having re-read crashgirl's comment about level capping in the old thread, I found this cap remover.

Right, I've managed to get a lung infection, and you all know what that means* ...Baldur's Gate! Baldur's Gate, all the way through is massive, and I can't justify spending the time on it for what would be the second time in my life [played BG1 three times]. However, since I can't move about, that doesn't apply.** I need from you people a list of teh mods I should install, and where to get 'em. Looking at the old thread, I see Tutueasy recommended above all. Please let me know in the net couple of hours as I'm bored silly. *You don't. **Until I can get a suspensor lift suit like in that film.

Bill Withers - Ain't no Sunshine when she's gone.

What baffles me is that it doesn't matter how many soulless chump-fests Hollywood turns out to zero succcess, they steadfastly refuse to mass produce awesome films with great production dynamics.

I can't find the comment! Give me the comedy, ice-hockey man!

You know what they say about guys with big feet. I'd find that the scariest bit about running into him.

"our"? I thought you said you were Eastern European, not Russian.

Dwarves?

I guess when you're raised on it you get used to it. I also think that European candy bars always seem to be softer than Hershey and probably wouldn't re-solidify well for this particular pie. You might not like the waxy chocolate, but it is good for some things... Aha, yes, that would make sense. I wonder what else you could use? Just for the sake of variety.

Yeah, but you're clearly a dude. I mean you've got a gun, and everything.

You're claiming Russia is the underdog? You also claim to be in favour of breaking a monopoly. Well, I see this as being about breaking the monopoly one Empire established across the majority of the 'World Island' (Europe/Asia) in the 18th and 19th centuries. A monopoly which can hardly claim to have served the conquered territories very well. And don't trouble to point out the British Empire, because we GAVE away the Empire willingly after WW2 when we began to understand that liberty is a human right, and forced control degraded the nation. Instead you seem to be pushing for a return to the extinct virtues of Empire, where Russia can only have respect when it pushes people around; and the glory of that country can be measured only in its land mass! Such a metric has only one outcome - war. And believe it or not I am genuinely not keen on war. Because unlike ol' Vlad I have to fight in them. I am quite prepared to admit that prior to a few weeks ago my knowledge of the Caucuses extended only to my knowledge of Stalin, and the activities of the wehrmacht. It is uncomfortable, but what is the point of debate if we cannot admit weakness?

That sounds almost gladiatorial.

People graduate university without that faculty, though. People teach university without that faculty. : / Very very true.

That sounds great, apart from the fact you're using hershey bars. I can't understand how anyone can like hershey chocolate. Still, at least it's not Nestle.

Personally I'm frigthened/excited about them putting shark brains in UAVs.

Surely the end of mankind?

I'm beginning to find all this really creepy. Those extrusions are giving me the heebie-jeebies. EDIT: Chemotherapy! Chemotherapy makes your mucus membranes stop replicating, and your hair falls out. Might it not whallop this stuff?

I'd gofurther and suggest most curricular activities positively discourage applying yourself. Don't think. Store and regurgitate.

Like it.

Ew... you just reminded me of the Rat King in Halo Jones.

It's not surprising in the least, considering that by the sound of things you'll be one of the kind 5th columnists waving the T72 onwards. I've just read the report you link to, and it is an economic report, not a political one, and I find their political analysis facile at best. Certainly there has been economic growth. But to impute this to mean the country is politically sound is just weird. China has economic growth. Putin has behaved in a hyper-aggressive fashion, both domestically and externally since he came into office. Or had you forgotten Chechnya II? Litvinenko? The crushing of the free press? The hounding of Kasparov? To me it sounds like more of this dangerous bollocks which has everyone siding with absolutely anyone so long as they are anti-American. I'm not fundamentalist pro-American. But I know that a hyper-aggressive regime in Russia has me worried. Poland is part of NATO, as are we, which means if Putin fancies a trot around Eastern Europe I have to ship over there and get shot at.

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics...ependently.html University admissions boards claim students are turning up without soft skills. I was wondering what suggestions you might ahve for improving these skills. Mine is to release chimpanzees into high schools. One of the chimps will contain a million pounds in gold. One of the chimps will explode!

Servitor... servitor... does whatever the brain inside does!

Like the lady said, hoep you're OK. Is it phys? Secondly, no sugar? I can't imagine the Army without sugary tea every fifteen feet. Or fruit. What the hell?
