Humodour

I think Deus Ex did it well - you often choose the first line, and then the conversation went on autopilot from there up till a branch. At least that way you could generally predict dialogue and choose accordingly. What I hear about their tone system seems to indicate that tones don't act consistently/produce consistent results and are thus fairly unpredictable. Which is nice in moderation but not for the entire dialogue system.

As far as I can tell there's no summary, no. I'm perturbed by that, too.

Are you claiming gmail or ISPs actively violate privacy? Or even have a right to? Please don't try be misleading. This would be bad, too if any entity had legal immunity to privacy violation, but that it's a government with it is worse - not because the government is necessarily untrustworthy, but because it's a right they don't deserve and which can easily be abused. Governments are fluid things, and you can't base your defence of them on the notion that they stay static, because they most certainly do not. And by the way, random n00b, they most certainly can arrest you if you say you plan to kill Bush. Both in Britain and America.

Well, episode 1 of season 5 was a bit boring. At least they ended the Michael plot-line, though. It was seriously going nowhere.

Today was a bit chaotic. Maybe we should stick to 3 people 5 worms in future?

No, I believe you need to go get the OTHER ruby ring thats on the trail of corpses past the ogre mage. They are glued to the wall by carrion vomit or somesuch. Though you might want to reload to BEFORE you tell Scar. It's something added by a patch, unfinished business I believe. Oh, wait I remember. You have to retrieve the royal girl's body on the wall, and she has a ruby ring. I think you need to give both to scar. Her body weights like 150kg so good luck lol.

Don't be stupid, be a smarty, come and join Worms World Party! Umm... World Party is best Worms -game ever! I m in. OK, well try and join the IRC channel and idle there as mentioned in the first post. It's a lot easier organising games in real-time.

Haha replaying it?

If you don't go to sleep but keep drinking, you won't get a hangover. It's true - I've done it.

That was fun. Shall we have an encore later this week?

I'm not excited about this game. I mean, I'll buy it, and I'll probably enjoy it (maybe even really adore it), but I thought you guys should know that simply based on previews, I'm not getting good vibes (or any vibes really). I think that's a general feeling not unique to me, so perhaps you need to approach marketing from a different angle; you don't have a pre-built fanbase or game world like you do/did with KOTOR, NWN, SoZ or even Aliens, so you can't expect the audience to do the work of getting excited. No doubt this problem is what plagued NOLF1 and Deus Ex 1, as well, and indeed any new IP. Regardless, I think perhaps it'd be a good time to think outside the box.

http://www.theregister.co.uk/2007/10/03/ri...ion_keys_power/ Now I know that in and of itself, this isn't such a major matter (well, OK, it is). However, what worries me is that it's the UK passing this. They keep moving further and further towards something I do not think I like. And with Sweden's recent disregard for privacy, it would seem there is a growing trend in the West towards governments giving themselves ever more power all in the name of 'protecting citizens'.

Seriously, please tell me you don't believe that.

Pope, when you wake up or something, join #obsid on quakenet IRC so we can organise some games.

Ace! Anybody else?

What the f...?

That's not Jake, it's a Cylon dog.

lol Welcome to land of kangaroos and... *pukes a little* This is why you live near the beach, where fat people are too ashamed to live. Although that makes it twice as disgusting when you do see one walking around the beach in a g-string or something.

Wait, 'teams'? Isn't max 6 characters?

Note to self: "We don't go to Sweden." Also of interest is this: http://tech.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=08/06/18/0048234

Well done.

I think I'm going to have to make a script that replies "bs&tl;dr" to all of Yuusha's posts. Can you get what 'bs' stands for?

What's the point of strength though? Seems useless. And what's the point of having more than one person with mechanic, medical or explosive?

I eat something like twice my recommended caloric intake each day and I'm still ****ing skinny. It ****s me off. But, no, I don't think Australia will ever be able to top America's progression:

Wait, what? They need different amounts of sleep? I noticed Igor gets puffed out easy. lol
