Tale

you should join a pnp group, it seems to interest you even if you don't admit it to yourself I actually have a friend who's talking about getting a Rifts game together I might join in on. Too bad it's not D&D 4e, though.

I really enjoy browsing my 4e set for some reason. I'm tempted to buy the Keep on the Shadowfell adventure. I have no idea why. Someone needs to hurry up and make a 4e PC game.

nm, it seems SecuROM has other functions in Bioshock.

2K has removed the SecuROM DRM from Bioshock. Completely on their end, as well. You won't even need to patch it. I actually anticipate Mass Effect following the same trend after a time. After a time.

How can love be wrong!?

Who plays GTA for the quests?

Tomato tomatoe.

They already tried that. It didn't work so well.

I'd almost certainly say it is Tigh's. Presuming she knows who the father is, that explains why she was asking Tigh if he loved her.

The official D&D forums keep going down more often than a [sex metaphor].

My point was, why not want THQ to contract Obsidian for it? They've a longer record of being a reliable publisher than Sega. As for Atari, they're hemorrhaging money, but I don't believe they're zombies yet.

THQ has the 40k license in the way that Atari has the D&D license. Why would you want Sega to be involved?

I didn't say they had immunity. I said it's reasonable that they do. And you have no basis to claim for certainty that they don't. Thus, you don't know that they don't. It does follow that they are different and that some different rules apply. Quite possibly, the human rules. I refuted one point of yours. I called your other points into significant question that you can no longer say that Helo definitely can't be a Cylon. They are already significantly different. You can't just draw an arbitrary border on what point you think makes them being one of the 12 models is irrelevant. All I'm saying is that the final five are different. Thus being different, you cannot say they have to follow the same rules as the original. Thus, you can't say Helo can't be one of them because he doesn't follow the same rules. I'm not saying they don't follow many of the the same rules or this particular rule. I'm saying you no longer have any basis to say that they do. All I was doing was calling into question. With it called into question, Helo is then a possibility.

Well, it would make the entire story arc about Hera pointless. For one thing, since the known cylons initially staged the relationships between Helo and Athena because they were unable to produce children among themselves. Another reason is that Athena survived disease on the basestar in "A Measure of Salvation" early in the third season because she had conceived a child with a human, which somehow made her immune. Had Helo been a cylon, that could not have happened. And I should correct myself. I thought the same episode established why Roslin cannot be a cylon, because she met one of the infected cylons and yet did not contract the disease. I was mistaken, though, because I forgot that Baltar injected Hera's blood into Roslin during "Epiphanies" half-way through season 2, so naturally she would be just as immune to the disease as Athena turned out to be. And if you think it's a plothole that Tigh, Tyrol, Tory and Anders were not affected by that disease, then nope - it's not, because conveniently (and perhaps a little too conveniently), none of them ever met an infected cylon in that episode. The same disease also establishes why Baltar cannot be a cylon, since in the preceding episode, "Torn", the cylons sent him to investigate the disease on an infected basestar precisely because he was immune as a human. All of this is debunked by the fact that the final five are close enough to human themselves that they can manage to have children with other Cylons (RE: Tigh+Six). This outright refutes your first point. Accepting this, it's easily possible that they also have the same immunity. Because the final five are different.

Bond never got STDs! That we know of. He probably has a few bastard children, though.

Zehir is a 4e deity, yes. But he's part of the base setting, Points of Light (I believe that's right) and, apparently, not Forgotten Realms.

which full Cylon child? You have Hera (I never quite understood if it's Caprica 6 + Baltar's or Athena + Halo's?) which is Human/Cylon and Tyrol + Cally's kid, which is also Human/Cylon. Yes, I noted that too. I guess that will later point to other differences between the seven known cylons and the final five. Haven't gotten there yet. I'm pretty sure Tyrol's son will also be significant, but except for Hera, the others have been left in the background so far. And about the final cylon, D'Anna says four are in the fleet. However, then only humans she has seen at the time she says so are Helo - whom we know is not a cylon - and Roslin. And she did ask Roslin if she knew she was a cylon, didn't she? And come to think of it, didn't Roslin act confused as if she blacked out for a second when the fleet jumped to the nebula at the end of season three, when Tigh, Tyrol, Tory and Anders found out they were cylons. Then again, there is evidence to contradict that as well, assuming Moore has been consistent and known who the final cylon was. How can we know Helo is not a Cylon?

I'm now incredible curious. According to http://forum.candlekeep.com/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=11109 Zehir is not in the FR pantheon. So what role will he play in this game? Did Obsidian goof or will this game feature gods trying to cross settings or perhaps our characters stopping Zehir from establishing himself in FR?

which full Cylon child? You have Hera (I never quite understood if it's Caprica 6 + Baltar's or Athena + Halo's?) which is Human/Cylon and Tyrol + Cally's kid, which is also Human/Cylon. Tigh + Caprica Six Hera is Athena + Helo, by the way.

Bond girls aren't romantic interests. They're flings. And I hope we get some of those. That's what my superspy needs. Lots of meaningless sex and a trail of broken hearts.
