Does Revan's fate make any sense?
Thrawn was not a man who was good or evil. He really didn't care about politics, all he cared about was order. He always referred to the Alliance and later the New Republic as the Rebellion because that's just what they were to him. Had he actually been the overall leader of the Empire with Palp's as the figurehead then the rebellion would have never happened because Thrawn wouldn't have allowed Tarkin's rise or other massacres to happen because he would have figured out what happened. Ultimatly the reason he failed at his gambit to restore the empire is because he has very little ability in subterfuge. He hides everything in peoples blinds spots and doesn't expect there to be any cooperation between races or differing factions. Thrawn isn't a bad guy, he's just a person who would do anything to win and was caught on the wrong side of the war.

Addiction: somthing that you do so often that it gets in the way of your normal life. or from http://www.medterms.com/script/main/art.asp?articlekey=10177 I somehow doubt that McDonalds would be classified as a possible addiciton.

World Of Warcraft rant
It's good to know that Ting is handing out evilness all around. I have admitted before that I have a warped view becaue I haven't actually played with my own char and used my friends lvl 60's, I would think that Paladins would have a incombat rez because they were the only character class in the entirety of Warcraft that was able to ressurect live units. Exsorsism would be better if you did a damage for every ounce of mana that you put into it (like in War2). that way you could kill some of the more "elite" opponents in under two seconds with just paladins. anyway I just made this to get discussion going and it looks like I succeeded.

How old are you?
the poll isn't acurate, it should be from 10-20, 20-30, 30-40.... and the old fogies as the last catagory.

Jedi armor that doesn't restrict the force and looks like your wearing a metal dress.

What's your dirty little secret?
what we need here is a good christian crusade that wipes out all the dumb idiots who still believe that the pope rules your life and that you shouldn't touch yourself because every time you do a little angel goes strait to hell.

Grabbed by the ghoulies help!
for meta: Grabbed by Ghoulies was a game that came out two or so years ago in america for the Xbox. Had a huge ad campaing behind the release but the game itself sold horribly and was never mentioned again. It only got a 6.5 on Gamespot.

World Of Warcraft rant
actually I"m going to agree with Al on this one. There are several instances where pulling includes only one person. Recently my friends have taken to running molten core, which is much harder than the cathedral, and they still pull only one guy at a time. Unfortunatly the spawn times can be a little short so at one point we were fighting a Lava Annihilator when an ancient core hound poofed on us. we survived (barly) by banishing the Annihilator and kicking the dog between the legs a bunch of times. then we killed the Annihilator.

why post about Grabbed by Ghoulies on a forum for Obsidian? why not go to that games developer and post there, or just check GameFAQs?

phile you say that the True sith are the decendants or the Golden Age group, well then that's either the (now wiped out) massasi, or the former inhabitants or Korribon. the only place that would work is the Ice planet group (i'm a horrible SW Geek, I don't remeber the name) and I don't think that one planet makes much of a empire.

one of the debunked stellas is a guy who was stealing sombody's hubcap and got his hand run over for his trouble and ended up winning an exorberant amount of money for the damage to his hand. Another is a guy who got locked in the garage of the house he was burgling and survived on Dogbiscuts and pepsi then sued the owners of the house because the garage door wouldn't open (it was automatic and the burgler cut the power to the house).

How old are you?
Right now every desision is made for me rather than actually being able to make them myself so it would be no different for me than it is now. Now we should stop this discussion because it's making my depression fight through my medication and I'm starting to feel the urge to kill myself again.

well it's better than the guy who took winnabego to court because he used his cruise control as an autopilot on a windy road. I think that one has been debunked but... there was also a kid who got taken to court for getting 1million through fraud and ended up getting thrown from the baseball team for it. He then sued the school because he said he was going to become a Pro Baseball player but now he can't becaue he got tossed from the team and no scouts would see him. He promply sued the school for 50 million

if they are hostile they will still go after you if you are bubbled, it can be effective but you have to have a zillion buffs and be specifically designed to do it.

@Lonewolf:OH OH OH ME ME ME! I find it rather incredible that people want sombody to be alive considering that all the person feels is pain, and they have no possiblity of waking up to do things... to quote my greatgrandfather:"They shoot horses don't they?"

actually the industry standard set by the National Coffee Association of America recommends coffee be brewed at "between 195-205 degrees Fahrenheit for optimal extraction" and drunk "immediately". If not drunk immediately, it should be "maintained at 180-185 degrees Fahrenheit". (Source: NCAUSA.)
