No new info whatsoever. Gee Bester try not to be too enthusiastic, I would prefer if you were negative as I find your excitement and constructive opinion false Oh no, I'm very excited. I don't even understand half things people are posting here. Torment KS is great, I donated all I could, basta. All this whining about "bwian fawgo, why didja use towment naaame?", "why didja stawt new ks befowe weleasing anythiiiing", "why you make towment it's DEAD bwiaaaan" - it's incomprehensible to me. I think I'm the most positive guy in here. Okay I apologize, you do seem to be one of excited people

In almost every case mouse and keyboard are far better for FPS games than a controller. True, good point

Syrian dictatorship continues slaughtering children

" the west lied in Libya" No, no my friend thats a spurious assessment of the reality of the Libyan conflict. The West extended its mandate to prevent a humanitarian massacre and catastrophe. And yes they did a little more than they were suppose to but it was completely necessary under the circumstances In order to truly understand my point you need to go back to the early stages of the Libyan conflict. I want you to forget the UN, the West, Russia and China then ask yourself a simple question. Seriously only one question in all these Western interventions is relevant "does a government have a right to use its own army, police and full force to suppress political unrest". I am hoping you say "no" In the Libyan conflict in the beginning the rebels were basically surrounded in Misratah, remember the "Siege of Misratah". Gaddafi would have happily annihilated the entire town and killed every man, women and child. He was a brutal and mentally unbalanced dictator who was never the legitimate ruler of Libya and who would have had no issues with the killing of vast parts of his population. How can anyone with good conscience allow any government that controls its own army to use that army internally within its own borders? The West broke the siege of Misratah and then continued to destroy Gaddafi's air force and tanks but it was the Libyan rebels who did the main fighting throughout the civil war. If you think the civilian causality list is bad in Syrian it would have paled in comparison compared to Libya if the West hadn't intervened. How can you not say that the West did the right thing? So what is more important to you, the prevention of the systematic killing of large segments of a population or that fact the West did more than the UN mandate stipulated? It doesn't matter if you say the West intervened for future Oil or reconstruction contracts, they did still prevent a genocide. And once again Syria is an example of what happens when the West is blocked from helping. Surly you can't think thats a better situation than Libya? -
I agree 100%, this year is shaping up fantastically

You have raised a good point, Assad had numerous chances to implement meaningful political change. He refused and believed he could crush political dissension through the might of his army and police. -
Just the fact you are backing it on any level is a good thing. Nice one I didn't realize I would get a free copy of W2. Good to know.

Not too sure the aftermath of a glorious Western intervention would be very clean. Well the last two Western interventions have worked as expected. In Libya and Mali Western forces assisted militarily. The example of Libya is the perfect example of necessary regime overthrow, the West had no real troops on the ground but used there air power to assist the forces fighting Gaddafi. They destroyed his air force and tanks but they let the Libyan rebels do the ground fighting. Thats all the Syrian rebels asked for from the UN, they were prepared to the hard hand to hand battles. By using air power the West can play an important role in many conflicts without a protracted and expensive commitment -

Once Assad is gone, and this is inevitable, its unlikely we will see a Western or Middle East form of Democracy. There are too many Islamic extremist groups involved with the rebels now. These groups are helping overthrow Assad but they have there own political agenda's and these groups will influence the new governments decision. The reality is I can't blame there influence as they are fighting and dying in the towns and fields of Syria in this war against Assad. If Russia had not vetoed Military action by the UN security council this war would have been over months ago and you wouldn't have had intervention by extremist groups, so I blame the failure of any form of Democracy that will be implemented squarely on the Russians. -
I like this because now everyone who says they missed an oopportunity to pledge due to tiers being used or time zones will have no excuse

You are denying yourself true gastronomic exhilaration if you don't eat cheese. There are so many ways you can integrate it into a meal. But very few ways to combine cheese with food highlight its greatness as much as the simple application of cheese on a good biscuit. What can beat a good Stilton or Roquefort with some onion relish on a Melba biscuit. Yummmmmmy

Don't you like Cheese?

I worked yesterday and today my mom, step-dad and my cousins are coming over for lunch. I am doing a Cheese Fondue. I have prepared all the ingredients and it should be a fun afternoon of dining on delicious Swiss cheese. I made sure I bought only Swiss Cheese to keep the fondue as authentic as possible. So I have Emmental, Gruyère and Appenzeller

I have just finished Alan Wake and I thoroughly enjoyed it, a solid 78/100 The game captures very well this eerie mystery where you are part of this narrative that your character creates. You need to find your wife in this town beset by a supernatural force. Similar to a Call of Cthulhu entity. I found the game very hard to stop once you start playing, and that always a good sign

Good idea, it might be interesting to have some intelligence with this creature. Like a Treant -
I also didn't think it was spam, but I suppose it was a form of duplication of an active post?

To be honest I never understand this judgment of Western countries from people living in Western countries I am going to assume you live in a Western country. Don't you believe in Democracy and things like a free press and free speech, do you believe that your government can be criticized on TV and the government doesn't have the right to enrich itself on tax payers money? Because end of the day those are some of the things that make a "Western country" as opposed to other places like China, Russia and various countries in Africa. So what exactly is wrong with Western culture and ideology in your opinion?

Nice Let celebrate, where are you going to take me for dinner? I was thinking seafood. Lobster Thermidor is probably appropriate considering the fortuitous circumstances?

Good points especially around the non-announced financial contributions that people make to keep there companies going.
