Stoll admitted to taking the dive on his interview with Team 1260. He figured they were calling things so tight that he could take a gamble and make the 5-on-3 a 4-on-3.

If you can't afford a quarter...
There was a beautiful resort next to ours (which was also beautiful, but not quite as established) in the Dominican Republic that was called The Palladium. That's the end of my contribution to this thread.

I found it very interesting that he openly admitted to diving on the Laraque hit, yet the referees still gave him many calls throughout the series. I remember when Michael Jordan admitted he got away with little travels here and there, the referees started watching him more carefully and he started getting called on it

What were the different options with Firkraag? (though I was talking more BG1 than BG2). I always ended up just killing the dude. I guess when I consider non-linearity, I don't consider whether or not I allow person X in my group to really be all that non-linear. I am always focused on plot. For instance, I don't consider Oblivion (or Morrowind) to be a very non-linear game, as it didn't seem like there were many quests that could be done in a variety of ways, and certainly not the main storyline. I guess your reactions to some NPCs in BG2 does actually have an impact on the game.

Ah yes, good point. Though it just screams Coop, given you have the option to do whatever you want in the SP game.

Since I got back into hockey, Steve Yzerman has been my favourite player. Even if he wasn't an Oiler. He's a total class act and give it his all. I remember when, on one leg, he was their best player in the playoffs.

So what would excite you more?
I spent 3 years full time at my local Boston Pizza, plus some part time years. I am finally free of all that though :D

How so? It's been sooo long since I have played the game. I'm not someone that considers the option to do side quests as non-linearity.

OMG OMG OMG Multiplayer!!@!?@?!?!?!?!? As for Freelancer, I'm a big believer that playing even the worst games is still a lot of fun if done multiplayer. It is fun star treking across the universe in FL.

Meh. Meh I say.

I particularly like the methodical singing in that link.

I agree. I have no regrets having spent a couple years working as a liquor store clerk, as well as a short order cook.

I agree. It's what jerkfaces do.

The 6th of June will be the best holiday ever
Nah, they are totally trying to steal the thunder of the 52nd anniversary. I'm sticking to my guns here people.

I've heard Slither is remarkably entertaining.

Alright nerds.
B-but... aren't Intel the underdogs? Look at their stock prices. Look at their current products. Look at their management. :D <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Hehe, this would totally be news to me. I'm sure that even if a single stock of Intel was half the price of an AMD one, Intel still demolishes them with volume

I don't know if it comes in a box. Jags suggested direct download, so Hades is probably SOL. I suspect I'll be spending some money in the near future "

Same in PnP your still limited by the rules and common sense. Being finite is still quite different from being given a pre designed character and told to play it. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> The variations one can make in a PnP game that still stay within the rules are as finite as the possibilities of appearance in the actual humans (which is indefinite by the way). Now that you mention it though, I definitely hate the restrictions that classes artificially place on me.

Doomsday sounds much more straight forward, and if you want any help or tips with it, just open up a thread and I will be there! It's done at the division level, so you'll never have just "one guy." At worst, you'll have one last division of men (which still means you're probably screwed, but you can build more!).

Currently Listening To
I have noticed that many one hit wonders have their one hit be a cover of a different song. A few off the top of my head: Alien Ant Farm Ataris Tiffany My roommate and I looked through at one point and it seemed actually pretty common.

And your palette of customization in a video game is still finite.

Alright nerds.
I have a bias towards the underdogs, so I'll likely stick with AMD. I haven't really followed processors closely since the 1 GHz race though.
-
The good ol' times...
Ah yes! The choice! Given how popular the game was, I suspect it was quite unlikely that everyone had a "unique" character
