  1. Not at all. They don't even live in the same country.

    NHL

    Not really. Entry level contracts are capped in the 900k region. The only way they can make good money is if they cash in on the bonuses, which means that have to do more than squat in the NHL.
  3. I'm curious how a different president would do. I have heard people criticize Bush for not having just cause (i.e. the WMDs) for attacking Iraq, yet they forget that Clinton (under the same guise, suspected WMDs with intelligence being less than accurate) did the same thing.
  4. Bashing Bush seems to be the trendy, fashionable thing to do now-a-days.
  5. If it weren't for the pesky English/French to the west, and the Russians to the East! Conquer Norway, and all will be good! A neat thing about the game is that it's possible to have random events give you core provinces.
  6. I'm trying to remember if Finland even exists. Though a neat feature of the game is that apparently you can start at ANY year between the start and the end, with the world being in the correct situation for that year.
  7. You know, in both cases where you are talking about hockey, you haven't actually gotten the name right " You no doubt are talking about NHL 07 and NHL 2k7.
  8. You envy someone for not playing a good game??
  9. The EU games are a lot more open ended than DD, so that may be something that appeals to you.
  10. Was there a Magic-esque superhero card game?
  11. In my (limited) experience, it tends to be a lot of searching and graph theory. It tends to be computationally expensive though, so you'll tend to implement a heuristic to hopefully speed things up.
  12. If the countries have to be unlocked by "conquering" them, then I'll probably play a short game with the English, as I really want to try my luck with the Scots :D
  13. No, it's still an AI. Just a really simple one.
  14. For the record, Portugal was crushed by Republican Spain in our game of HOI2
  15. The only Michael Moore experience I have ever enjoyed was Canadian Bacon. Though I haven't watched it since I learned what a goof Michael Moore is, so I wonder if I'd still enjoy it as much.
  16. We have to get out of here before they kill Guy!!
  17. No kidding! Thinking about it a bit, doesn't the Biosphere gone awry setting kind of mimic a post-apocolyptic setting? Things have gone very bad, there's mutations going around, and people are scavenging to survive!.
  18. You never know, they might come up with something that works. Just because it wasn't successful with Lionheart, doesn't mean it's impossible.
  19. The Athlon 1.7 is probably quite a bit better than the Pentium 1.8. Their clock speeds aren't really comparable.
  20. I'd give you advice, except that there isn't really any to give. You'll have people telling you what you should and should not do, but it's different for every person.
  21. I became emotional repressed, shut myself out from the world, and probably development mental disorders. In hindsight it probably wasn't the best way to go. I had a friend say I was pretty much "comatose" through the entire school year (it was Grade 8, and my brother was killed in a motorcycle accident). Perhaps not coincidentally, I started to take an interest in sports, and had an intensity that few could match (even if I didn't have the talent) on the basketball court.
