Yeah, it's easy to give the impression that you're not to falling for any diving, when in fact you're just allowing for everything. There was lots of diving alright, but there were many fouls which the ref just chose to ignore. No team was favored by this though, which probably means he was trying real hard not to punish either team too severely to avoid hurting the final. If you say so. The game probably benefitted from the ref not stopping it at every turn, but only because no team took advantage of it and stepped up the aggression.

I didn't know they could play games without a ref. Amusing, indeed. Anyway, great game from Italy. Instead of relying on their classic catenaccio, they were on the offensive the whole time, which paid off in the end, and made for a fun match to watch. So it looks like we'll have a France-Italy Final. And France is going to win. edited for typos

"It works" just because. No satisfactory reason is given at all, except that creatures possessing spell-like abilities, "just have them". I always get a laugh when you criticize other people's logic. Anyway, it makes perfect sense to forego material components rules for all but the most expensive. Again, having the wizard (and sorcerer, meh) player waste time managing components and carry around a load of different components is only good to clutter the game for that player, and possibly the others as well (as I explained before and you failed to understand). It makes sense to use material components for powerful spells (Wish, Miracle, etc), so as to prevent casters from spamming those spells to victory everytime. Stoneskin can hardly break the game. Wish, on the other hand, is a very different matter.

No, those are "spell-like abilities". Yes, it's real lame. I never have participated or GM'd a campaign that made use of the material components rules, except for the more powerful spells. I just don't see how that contributes to role-playing or, for that matter, fun.

You don't really see more. A 16:9 aspect ratio offers less viewing area than 4:3. It is debatable whether the difference between lateral and vertical fields of view (180 vs 140 degrees) is actually relevant, since the eye's actual focus area is only a fraction of the actual field of view. Anyway, props to you for a creative solution, lol :D

GO FRANCE! Awesome game, and once again, Zidane proves he's still THE MAN. I was hoping Brazil would actually do something good in this match seeing how they hadn't really needed to try so far, but they got smacked around pretty bad, with key figures Kak

Oh well, since you put it that way. 14/f/cali

OMG so you're one of those FAKE OL chicks! Shame on you!

Don't underestimate the power of copy&paste.

Same here, but I seem to have problems watching some online multimedia crap, so... And since everyone seems to be commenting on New Life, I'll say I found it to be one of the most annoying missions in the game, but I did everything with just the clown costume, so it might just be me...

Larry 7 was "funny as f***". It's probably an exception, though, with the franchise's quality decreasing with increasing sequels, with Magna Cum Laude's good joke per hour rate being one of the lowest of the saga.

More like 60%, as plot thickness diminishes steadily from that point on, being replaced by ever growing amounts of inane combat. You haven't played BL, Bok? You should get it, it's quite a nice game.

Awesome.

This thread is getting boring. I like discussing heavy armor as much as anyone, but I'd rather talk about how those sorry ass terrorists are getting their asses handed to them by glorious zionist brigades supported by none other than YHWH itself (and the power of $ also, but that doesn't count). Troll on.

Oh, crap!

LOL @ U

If that's not corporatey enough, nothing is.

I don't think you really want that. And no, I don't mean it in a *waves hand* "this is not the moderator position you are looking for." kind of way. I'm referring more to the work hazards such a position entails.

Never said otherwise. It's much worse a game system, too. This fact may or may not be related to its simplicity.

Road-runner style, alright.

I don't get it.

Get ph4tter hardware.

CONSPIRACY!

I see ninjas, and I see pirates. But are there any ninjah pirates?!? That's the role I was born to perform.

That was a slip from the ref, actually. Puyol was running in front of Henry the whole time, then Henry bumped into him from behind, and fell to the floor in "pain". This allowed the free kick that was masterfully executed to obtain a second goal (with involuntary help from defender Sergio Ramos).
