Hey...

Okay, that is funny. I guess it's funny in the sense that it's true. We're wired for cognitive bias as a survival trait.

Nitwit study finds funniest words...

Ever heard of Haumea, Quaoar, or Makemake?

Ye i think it seems like it could be fun but the extreme version of this was DOS for me where you can jack everything which was dumb. I felt like it ruined the economy and forced you into stealing even if you didnt want to roleplay a character like that so you could buy stuff. It seemed like the devs had to make everything really expensive in DOS to account for players that wanted to steal everything. Then if a player didnt want to steal stuff you were stuck not being able to make money to buy things. So as long as its doesnt seem necessary it could be fun. I never stole anything in D:OS. You're not being "forced" into it. Maybe you're just a kleptomaniac at heart?

Does this mean magic outside of combat?

An African wild dog would make a very handsome companion. They're distantly related to domesticated dogs, but are wild pack hunters like wolves and very fast on their feet.

Consider that this time ships are the core travel mechanic, whereas the Stronghold content was optional. Hence I'd expect more development of the ship-based content.

Watcher groupies: they want to board your ship and climb your mast with rope and tackle.

Could happen only if its a plot point, systemically...nope. Ship is essential for navigation, even getting it seriously damaged/hindering its speed too much may not be an option. Also I expect the crew will be too hard to get killed in dangerous situations since they won't be generic NPCs. I'm hoping for occasional sea creature sightings around the ship while cruising; whales, dolphins, sharks etc. Wonder how big is the visible ocean around the ship... Aye, but the possibility of getting shipwrecked makes adventuring at sea much more dramatic. Otherwise you're just tourists. Besides, it's an opportunity to strip the party of their gear and have them start over.

I'm hoping there's a possibility that your ship could sink under you, leaving you adrift on flotsam with only a few surviving crew members. From there, things get worse...

These guys keep missing deadlines.

Looks ergonomic to me...

I've been satisfied with most of the KS games I've contributed to, but then I was fairly conservative in my choices and the amount of my contributions. For Owlcat I thought about contributing but then decided not to, more because of general political reasons (Russian election meddling) than for the game itself. I'll probably still buy it down the road.

I can tell Trump's reaching over for a grab...

I think it's just the coolness factor. Manned space "exploration" has primarily been an exercise in national prestige. We've already been to the Moon and there's nothing cool about being the 13th person to land there. Scientifically though, there's a lot of excellent reasons. Unfortunately, it's just too darn expensive to fund purely science missions to the Moon at the moment.

I'm a little curious about something: does a order to the U.S. military posted on twitter by the lunatic in chief carry any legal authority? Can his twitterness post a command to launch a military strike from there?

Ravens OL John Urschel, 26, retires abruptly, two days after CTE study. http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/20170808/baltimore-ravens-offensive-lineman-john-urschel-retires-abruptly A very smart man makes a very smart move. I had heard his math colleagues had been urging him to retire from football.

Ok. So? Do we have "funny" police now on this forum?

You meet a two-headed dragon philosopher named Habibah that is obsessed with mirrors and cats. You can avoid a fight by supplying him with a pouch of snuff and giving him your favorite pet.

Well, if it's required, I volunteer to chip my middle finger. 'Cause waving that thing at the company scanners every day will almost make it worthwhile.

i'm with you on this. it's weird i can either wear a cloak or a necklace. why not both? it's weird. but it's great if they are finally separating it out! Well, why can I wear only two rings? I have ten fingers. And I am sure more than one ring will fit on each finger. The explanation usually given in D&D is "magical interference" caused by wearing too many magic rings in close proximity. In the end though it's all just a balancing mechanic.

I think it's part of Far Eastern mythology. But there's always Gedo senki.
