Job's that terrible ?

Hm, only game I played that was different really was GW2 and that got rather repetitive to me, regret that purchase, but the public quest and event scheme was good though. Rift, WAR felt similar to me when I played them.

So then every rifle is an assault rifle by that loose definition for the purpose part anyway. I guess the detachable magazine might be the best generalization of one for people for the purposes of banning them.

Replaying Caesar 3 after mentioning it here, good memories. Still hate the stupid market woman not going where I want her to though.

What's horrible about WoW's system ?

6 isn't that bad, given UI scaling and a decent resolution. I forget how many my IA Sniper had but it wasn't unwieldly. My Paladin in WoW by comparison has far too many useful abilities

Be Prepared from Lion King is the best.

Hm, would a horse be effective in battle as a weapon, well as much as a dog anyway. Maybe if the horse could breathe fire or something.

Well in a story sense, Ewoks are innocent thingies. Sadly all we got was one of them dying.

End of Year Review time at work. Get to hear how much I suck at my job Rather stressing week, this week.

Well, also the portrayal of the other side as loons, heh. Is a pretty vague term for a rifle when you think about it, if you mean it fires a certain kind of bullet, has a magazine of 20/30 rounds and can fire in modes other than semi-automatic, that might work. Then again could always go by the idea that if a military somewhere uses it, heh.

Well, to be fair to him, the other side is doing that as well.

ROTJ needed an Ewok massacre scene, would have showed how evil the Empire was and such.

Brave trolls those guys. Think they have the KKK protesting them, heh. I guess they're hoping someone shoots at them or something out there.

Will it have a tragic and traumatic back story ?

My guess is the ever growing powers of the federal government over the people. Seems to be a big issue, or so I read every now and then. Heh, funny story related to this, was that an old WW1 pistol was found in a furniture store, was left in a drawer when it was donated, a Torontonian opened the drawer saw the gun and then fled from the store screaming.

Between those two ? I doubt it.

Whenever something like this happens I always see news spots about gun control, the parent are to blame, the kid was ****ed, etc etc.. Never "does our culture somehow breed this behaviour?" "Why do we have so many shootings, could we as a society be doing something wrong".. It's, from my point of view, always focused on the regional or laws. Maybe it's just easier to dismiss when it's such a huge country, but I would never blame gun control or lack thereof, if people started going crazy here - I would naturally assume that something in our culture was leading instable kids to the conclusion that murder was the only way out. Espeically if was this frequent. As for better sources on school shootings.. To be fair we would need to compare all kinds of violence in schools, from knife attacks and shootings to regular beatings - and then see if America has a higher frequency. I'll have better time wednesday, so I'll try to see if I can find some articles about it. I've seen reports asking what you said - although that just leads to more magic bullet type solutions such as games, violent movies, lack of family values or what have you. Focusing on the regional law makes sense for the US, as things vary so much from state to state or so I think. Hard to know what Americans are doing as whole, heh, but I doubt they're thinking but ignoring some problem with their "system" or way of life or whatever. They have others lined up to tell them, anyway

What's giving you that sense ? If it's online commentary, plenty seem to admit something's wrong (although that lot tends to cry down their state all the time anyway). Probably a case of not really knowing what a proper solution is. They can count on Canadians smugly telling them what the problem is - media article today described the Bushmaster as an ultra-destructive weapon of war.

Doesn't seem like much of a starting point. Trying to talk down Hamas from that will involve what degree of capitulation from Israel ? I guess they could threaten brutal reprisal if Hamas reneges on a deal they win from that, but still can't see that as politically possible.

What happened to that guy who said he wanted to be able to MC people into loving him and all that other deviant stuff ? He was good for killing these off.

Not all of it, TA and SupCom (FA) were pretty epic and grand sounding.

http://gamasutra.com/view/feature/183525/the_burning_of_star_wars_the_old_.php Bit ranty at times. Wonder how his idea to make people pay for the storyline would have turned out.

Speeding along in WoW, levelling seems quicker than I recall it being. Good to see them use more phasing too, makes the story progression in a zone bit more believable than before. The breadcrumb quests are bit wonky, or I did them wrong as I did the quests at each hub the original quest sent me to, but eventually ended up having to go back to the same place three times as the different chains resolved.

I'd enjoy any problem from a CS course textbook.
