I'm also not a fan of the combat, before I would just cheat but now I use storytime mode and cheat It's also weird to me how much I am bothered by the major (major to me, anyway) class changes they make to the game. I shouldn't really care but I feel so negative about it for some reason. I dunno, but I'm finally making progress in my new playthrough- Army of Tentacles: (Not) A Cthulhu Dating Sim - a game by me for people

Makes sense considering the "inevitable candidate" isn't drawing as much enthusiasm which also makes sense because if they are inevitable then why bother On the flip side, I also don't have a lot of faith in the Dems carrying the general election but it's still early and a lot can happen. It's not very scientific but about a quarter of the ~120 people in my precinct expressed no desire to support Clinton in the general election. Most of those were young people who were only involved in the process at all because of Sanders but I was surprised that we also had a few disgruntled Republicans who switched sides like Anakin. But again this is just in my neck of the woods so I dunno if and even doubt that those trends hold up nationwide PS anyways I hope that we switch to a straight up primary vote because that caucus took hours with people speaking their piece and trying to sway others to their sides. In the end, the 4 not committed (or something similar to that) people went to Clinton and they had to change because they didn't meet the minimum threshold but nobody else changed their votes. There are some ballot measures to make the caucuses open, maybe that's a start- US Elections 2016
They were saying it was the highest turnout they'd ever seen for a primary There were two lines and each one wrapped around the block in a different direction. Some places had to stop letting people in because they were beyond capacity and others had to move outside to accommodate everyone- All the Literature and Reading Stuff...

Yes, I mean, apparently that seems to be the case - but that's just stating what we know. What we want to know is an explanation for this, why this is the case. Yes, but Cruz also has the overwhelming support of evangelical pastors, yet evangelicals vote Trump. The lack of debates is an invalid explanation, because while it might explain why people in general vote Clinton, it does not explain the absurd discrepancy between black and non-black voters. So this leaves us with only the "religious leaders" explanation. But it also seems absurd that black religious leaders have a level of control over their congregations so much greater than that of any other religious group. Two things, one, they see her as the successor to Obama similar to how Bruce does and two, they are the most religious racial group in the country- The Weird, Random, and Interesting things that Fit Nowhere Else Thread

I thought they couldn't make a Pathfinder RPG due to license restrictions which is why they made it a card game. Was this wrong?
