Wow. I was totally expecting "OMGOMGOMG sUx0rs!" due to some of the concessions made to the game for an MMO experience. Colour me pleasantly surprised.

I remember a huge bug in the original, where if you went so far into debt, your stocks would end up exploding in value, often splitting a few times, sometimes even goofy like 8 to 1 splits and whatnot. My income was soley based on the ridiculous stock revenues. It was hilarious.

Clearly you have not played the RR Tycoon games. :D

LadyCrimson for the win. I too am sick of the 10-9-8-7-6-0 scoring system

I'll vote Bill as well.

Hmmm. Only you and some dude named Hatok have killed me 5 times?? Important stats for me, 20 capture points an hour, and 13 team points. http://bf2s.com/player/44101159/ Who's better, me or Hurlshot? YOU BE THE JUDGE :D

I Samsonov. When I saw him grab the puck in the corner, I just had a good feeling. As he weaved his way in and out eyeing up the play, I actually stood up at the bar we were on because I just had that feeling. Once it hit Horcoff, my hands were already in the air :D

You're not going anywhere until you hit 12,800 posts.

In 2001, probably too many to list. I may have still been playing Deus Ex, but I think that was a 2000 game. NOLF was probably up there, and maybe Morrowind. I suppose Baldur's Gate 2 was in there somewhere, as well as PST (for the first time too).

Probably because Chuck Norris doesn't want you to.

Hehe, I saw that a few days ago. I got a chuckle.

Naturally, the uniforms are pinstriped suits as well.

OMG cheater!

I'm sure there've been other attacks in the 24 Universe. We just care about CTU LA though

I didn't realize the first season was before 9/11. But I guess it is. I saw it right when season 3 was starting.

Pffft, any self respecting tank commander knows about the angles. Sloped Armor for the win!

RAID 5 is different from RAID 5+0

I never said that RAID 5+0 was a common solution either. I did mention that it was used to help improve transfer rates. My point stemmed from RAID 5 not being nearly as uncommon as you think it is. And certainly not as useless. Besides, if you actually read the article you linked to, it's not RAID 5+0, but more like RAID 03. It's not recommended because it's very expensive. RAID 4 isn't recommended because there are other formats (i.e. RAID 5) that are superior to it in every way. Though we were never discussing what works for you, but the overall usefulness of the RAID 5 architecture. Though if you weren't doing a lot of write transactions, most people would actually recommend RAID 5.

No dedicated servers for Guild Wars? What exactly are we running on while playing the game then?

That wasn't the point I was addressing. I was talking about your claim that it is as irritating as a leaky tap. Are you referring to the Mythbusters experiment?

I miss the Palmer. One of my favourite characters, and the only person that could compete with the running "badass" totals that Jack acquires at a prolific rate. Sure do like him better than Logan. I forsee a resignation in his near future. It seems he's finally realizing he's not that great at leading the country in a crisis. I gave him the benefit of the doubt in the previous season, as he was tossed into it.

That had more to be with being strapped down than the actual drips. If it's just dripping water, then it's about as irritating as a leaky tap. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> If it's the Chinese torture I'm thinking of, it's quite a bit more than just being as irritating as a leaky tap. Most people don't lay beneath the leaky tap and let the water drip on to their forehead for extended periods of time.

I agree! I was very saddened. I was also thinking of reviving the thread myself

I think this argument is as silly as the "Diablo isn't an RPG" arguments. Mostly to the point of 'Who cares?"

He still wasn't invisible. He was creating plays out there. I never much liked the shot count anyways, because if a guy hits 20 posts, it would give the impression that he wasn't even shooting the puck. He was also the third assist on the Smyth Goal. He made the nice cycle to get it to Hemsky, who fired the quick pass to Spacek for the one timer that Smyth deflected. He did some nice skating to create room, had the defense commit, passed back to Hemsky and the rest is history. It gave Spacek a nice line to the net with Smyth alone in front to deflect it.
