Death by Vanity
The DM for the last game that I was a part of pulled punches on occasion to save my little kobold from dying. I think there was at least twice that he used some "DM license" to save me and another half dozen times where I ended up about 2 HP away from being fully dead. I had a horrible time with heights. 5 separate occasions I either went into negative hit points after a fall or being dropped to negative hit points caused me to fall from a good height.

NHL
This game seriously pissed me off. Someone needs to go slap the Senators around. They did nothing for the first 55 minutes and then oh look, they can't get a goal in the final five minutes. *Deraldin's I'm-so-disappointed-in-you-all/ARGH! emoticon*

How was the next day?

What are you playing now?
I don't think I managed to find much more than 50% of all the items in Fusion. It don't have the patience to bomb every exposed surface to find them.

I'll let that slide this time, but only cause you're a Dev...

Well Anaheim takes game one 3-2, but to be honest I don't think it was really as close as the score indicated. There were times where Anaheim completely outplayed Ottawa for extended periods of time. Way too many turnovers at the offensive blueline.

I just tried the patch. It doubled my frame rate, but that still only gets me 4 FPS.

Hey did you try the latest patch, I think it boosts performance No, but I doubt it will help much anyway. My computer just barely meets the minimum specs in most categories. I was playing the second UEF mission at -10 speed and 2FPS thanks to the auto-speed scaling. It's been shelved until I get a new computer.

Just wait till you hit some of the later levels. Some of them can be maddeningly difficult. 59-1 had me stuck for about a week because my timing on the jumps was always off by a split second.

I scan through them until I hit upon a game that gets a reaction of some sort. Like "N" on Deraldin's list--wtf is that anyway? I've never even heard of that game, and I can at least recognise most of the games on these lists, but even with the help of google, I can only come up with a neat little flash based game with cool physics. The "neat little flash game with cool physics" would be the right one. I haven't played it in awhile cause it started to piss me off. I beat the first 300 levels, but then the game lost track of my progress and I haven't worked up the will to go back through them all again. :sad:

They have an arcade in the movie theatre that I go to. Everything runs off of tokens of course. I stopped buying tokens when the machines switched to $1/3 tokens and all the games still took 4 tokens. I could make that dollar last a good hour playing Time Crisis (or one of the sequels. Currently have #4 in there right now) or House of the Dead (again or it's sequels. It's also on #4 right now). Everything other than that is usually over within a couple minutes.

Where did you hear this? I know that Balsillie is supposed to be working on a deal and there is supposed to be a press conference in an hour, but I hadn't heard anything other than that. EDIT: I see about the sale, but what makes you think they will end up in Hamilton? Additional news here: Brian Leetch has officially retired today after 18 seasons.

Huzzah! I broke the top 2000 in my pool! I'm still 70 points behind the leader though. :sad: Good round for me here, I managed to pull ahead of Volo in the predictions and I'm now 11-3 and will try to open up a two point lead in this round. Anaheim vs Ottawa: Anaheim may have Neidermayer and Pronger, however Ottawa also has Phillips and Volchenkov. It will be interesting to see the matchups in this series as to who gets to play against the Alfie line up front. Overall though I'm going to have to stick with Ottawa for this round. Ottawa in six. I'd say seven, but so far every Ottawa series win has taken one game fewer than my prediction.
