"The Goon" Movie KickStarter
I feel the opposite every time someone mentions that movie. This "The Goon" production by David "Fight Club" Fincher and Blur "Awesome Video Game Trailers" Studios predates Goon and CGI movie not aimed primarily at kids is currently the holy grail of the animation industry (as someone studying CG animation, this is extremely important to me). Every single time there was news about the Sean William Scott movie, I'd go "Goon? They finally made this? **** YES!" and I'd see some dumb movie about a pointless children's game instead*. Happy they're doing this. *Just messin' with ya.

Scrum!
Physical ways are always best. I've been on projects using programs for it - Hansoft or Tickspot for example - and everyone working on the project tends to really resent it.

Question for the regulars here
That's a crappy situation - my sympathies. I feel that if it's a way to honor his memory that means something to you, go for it. This is your thing to deal with, not anyone else's.

45th Anniversary of Che Guevara’s Assassination . Hasta Siempre Comandante
- Some kid back in high school when seeing some other kid in a Che T-Shirt. Che used to symbolize something (the jury will forever be out on what exactly), but ironically capitalism made sure he now stands for commercialism and ignorance.

My fwiw kickstarter economic analysis regarding the rift between the traditionalists and evolutionists
So by all means keep going. The less Obsidian takes this board seriously the better the game will be. No game has ever been improved by listening to the vocal minority.

What about them? The people here are like 0.5% of the kickstarter backers. They are inconsequential.

Turkey asks parliament to authorise military action in Syria immediately
And it was indefensible and ridiculous then too.

disappointed (torment fan perspective)
Next to nothing is known about the game. How can you be disappointed already?

"Sorry we threw a bomb at your citizens. Our bad!"

Quick, but yummy, Recipes\Snacks
That sounds tasty. Also, garlic seems like a good addition to that. It definitely is.

Quick, but yummy, Recipes\Snacks
My favourite quick snack is getting some chicken breast or plaice fillet - cut it into small bits, put it in milk, then in a bag full of breadcrumbs with some spices, shake, then get them out and fry them up in a skillet in some olive oil. Bitesized hot snacks.

Stretch Goal - hire Justin Sweet to make portraits.
I don't know the artist but the pictures on the first page - while technically well created - are extremely cliche and boring. I assume the love for him is based on something other than those pictures because they make him look like a poor man's Frazetta. Those Kormack pictures are much more interesting - he understands composition.

Overreaction theater!
It IS crafty. He made all the posts here prove his point for him!

Overreaction theater!
they should stop filching design ideas from WoW. Oh the enormous irony. I am just giddy! You lost me there, chief. "Stop stealing ideas from WoW" was by far the top complaint on the battle.net Diablo 3 forums during its development. If I recall correctly, StarCraft 2 too.

Overreaction theater!
Not only overreaction theater, but lack of priorities theater. If Obs listens to the people on this board the game will end up all the worse for it. Thankfully, the Obs designers have vision and integrity - they won't cave to any of the awful ideas thrown forth here. It's become a cesspool of Battle.net proportions in record time.

Piracy
I'd never considered this before, but now that I think about it those Pixar movies have dropped the half year delay of finally arriving in theatres here... Suddenly I support piracy.

Sorry, not everyone is into S&M. Hahahahaha. If that makes you think it's related to S&M then someone really hasn't earned that sandwich.

President Obama
Not having the charisma or a Reagan or Clinton is a severe understatement. Even Bush had a human element (even if that was the same human element primates have) - this guy is a robot, even his facial movements look artificial. I haven't followed the actual elections since the only thing Obama proved was that who the president is doesn't matter jack ****, the opposite party will block anything the president tries to do anyway - that means that as a foreigner, whoever the president is at this point affects me in no way whatsoever. But from what I've seen of Romney, it's that he is a ridiculous excuse for a politician and any party that chooses such a charisma black hole as him as a figurehead is on the way out.

RANDOM VIDEO GAME NEWS!
Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't they hire people to go to the new studios? I'm unsure of the specifics because I generally don't follow Bio, but hiring to fire seems like bad practice.
