  1. I'm a d8!
  2. Those French Canadians were mighty fine too. English meets French.
  3. I used to be like that until I went to uni. Previously the anime I'd watched was crappy but when I got there I had incentive (procastination is fine too) to watch stuff, and stuff happened to be anime. Lots of it. And a lot of it was really good. And now in order to procastinate even more I watch the not really good stuff too. Heck I even watched Evangelion <_<
  4. Brunettes yo.
  5. Here's my input: Death Note - good detective story Hayate no Gotoku - awesome funny. "Santa, why don't you give me presents?" "'cause your family's poor!" *cries* Claymore - looks boring Darker than Black - very nice show, probably the best on the list bar Death Note maybe El Cazador dl Bruja - combo of assassin girls in Mexico this time. In before corn fortune telling Additional stuff: Romeo x Juliet - pretty good. Only vaguely follows The Bard's plot Gurren Lagann - looks like win to me
  6. Well we see 1 minute silences in football games when tragedies like this and deaths within the football community happen.
  7. Awesome! Have a box of chocolates.
  8. Saw a bunch that were taking the opportunity to start on gun controls, so might as well keep it interesting. Btw if you're really concerned about the effects of restricting weapons that increase the likelihood of nutcases dealing (more) serious harm relative to conventional stuff, getting on Iran and NK's case should be right up your alley.
  9. Dudes, you're totally missing the chance to say socialism or communism > the "hedonistic" capitalism because capitalism creates the wealth gaps that set the dude off!
  10. If regular D&D rules was on I'd play a mage. Friendly fireballs for everyone!
  11. Oh btw, the Atari animation on startup always lags badly on my PC. Maybe it needs optimization?
  12. I'd be so up to this but I'm living in a different continent with shady internet connection issues so I guess I'll have to pass.
  13. I hope the roleplaying will make use of the options that come with being high level.
  14. I'm not convinced about close range combat in Fallout. Running towards a Deathclaw doesn't exactly make sense to me. I had lots of fun shooting the kneecaps off fast creatures, hobbling them and then their brain bucket as they hobble towards me.
  15. The first one was better than the second, but I enjoyed both a lot. Knightley-chan looks fabulous in the the Chinese outfit.
  16. Magic in a setting's cool because you have the sense you never know what to expect next. I guess people are so used to D&D stuff, elves/dwarves that the sense of awe is diminished. In that sense, it doesn't matter whether it's magic, sci-fi, steampunk or Aliens. If it's done right, the feeling of eagerly discovering what's around the corner is there. A setting doesn't guarantee it either way.
  17. If China goes ahead with worker min standards which it should, companies that already have significant investments there can't get out immediately. In the long term sure, and those who haven't went in. But planning, closing, relocating, retraining and securing new places for business will take time. Plus China's still cheap.
  18. I like the idea. Just 1. Make the enemies play by the same rule sets too. Vastly powered with bling? Cool. Irenicus's multiple defensive spell contingencies firing up? Uncool. 2. Make it clear to the player what's needed of them in the battle. It's unwinnable, accomplish an objective and get out. Could make an interesting roleplaying situation where your 2nd in command yells at you for a few times and if you still insist on fighting, they'll do it at first. But when everyone's low on health, No2 calls a retreat and you lose influence at a discussion within the group at a later recovery point.
  19. Dude, you're late. It was done yesterday with the KOTOR3 one.
  20. Disney's censored but not 4chan?
  21. Even if you want to have a purely business/trade relationship you'll be involved in politics. Look at China cutting deals with Russia, Venezuela, Africa, Iran over energy/oil. They expect China to cover them when the need arises and that's precisely what China and Russia have been doing with respect to Iran.
  22. Yup, you got me there Wals. Okinawa was annexed by Japan in the late 1600's so it was Japanese soil. I was actually stationed there in 1991-1992. Pretty nice place, my favorite in Asia as a matter of fact. Anyway, to reiterate, I had no point to make there. I just thought it was funny. Man, I wish I could find some Okinawan style yaka-soba and Orion beer in the States! I think that's yaki-soba unless it's a Okinawan twist on it. I could use an Asahi or three though.
  23. I enjoyed Hordes of the Underdark a lot. NWN2 wins for very good gaming in some parts.
