Start of old thread End of old thread Just trying to find the buttons on the new version of the forum software

Check out the expansion for this thread

Start of old thread End of old thread Ach, that one is also on my to-do list together with Hearts of Iron III. Bought both of them quite a while ago (plus the expansions for HOIII). You don't say. Learnt that the hard way yesterday after purchasing the full version of Demolition Inc. The demo is deceptively easy and then suddenly the difficulty rises faster than Zimbabwes inflation Not even on Diablo 2 yet

Now you are sounding like LoF Job security isn't much of an issue at the moment, but those things are always subject to change on a short notice. I'm happy where I am, but I keep channels open and networking active as a safeguard. Usually get between 1 and 2 dozen offers a week from all over the world. I wouldn't be tempted by a 15% payraise. Competitive environment, latest technologies and methodologies, keeping skills sharp and up to date etc. counts for more as a long term investment

Maybe the RT struck a deal with local prison authorities. Always a few scoundrels awaiting sentencing and facing life as penal troopers. Sale of the week, the content of 30 prison cells, only pay for 25?

No particular reason other than i like it

Professionals share their beauty tips Fake commercial, but funny none the less.

The 'Demolition Inc.' demo. Game just entered my "must have" list for the full version.

Heh, Gorth's list: ... Not currently looking forward to anything. I'll probably pick up something in my usual spontaneous way. Indie games, strategy games, whatever catches my fancy in the heat of the moment

Well, you can get kits for building a ship in a bottle Otherwise, you probably answered your own question. Since I'm not into the whole home decoration thing, I would probably look for some kind of RC model ship or all terrain vehicle. Doesn't look very nice on a shelf though.

Tricky challenge that one. I've done the odd miniature model built from scratch from green stuff (sort of taking Warhammer miniature conversion a step further), but it does require a lot of practise and "supplementary material". Green stuff isn't cheap. Looks better when painted too. Bronze casting is probably out of the question too 3D Modelling? Doesn't really give you anything to put on your shelf in itself, but if you create models/sculptures you really like, you can export it in a file and have it printed out on a 3D printer (they are a bit pricey still, but get better and cheaper by the year and there are companies you pay to print it out in quality plastic). Are you aiming for small stuff, large stuff, actually building something or assembling and painting/customising something? Maybe Guarddog has a spare car for you to renovate

Yeah, we got hit by a bit of a cold spell there (pun intended). I feel like playing BG again. Just finished installing the GOG version and various fixpacks and UB mods. No tutu or bgt

It's meant to be Supernatural, the TV show. Which I presume is on the CW network in the land of stars and stripes. 'The CW Television Network'... can't say I've ever heard about them Did you ever hear about UPN (Paramount's channel) and the WB (Warner Bros. channel)? They merged. I recognise the names Paramount and Warner Bros, but I guess you have to live in North America to know them as TV channels

Oh no, not at all. Everybody in this room knows who really killed that Ogre Mage

Well, this screenshot is quite telling: Sorophyx is a thief. Gorth did 18 point of damage and he just sneezes for 7 points, yet gets the "kill"

The last time I played, I'm pretty sure Thalantyr had Good and Neutral robes. We need a Wand of Beef! Summons cows (the non-mad kind). Explosive Cows optional...

I just don't watch enough CW these days, I really should have known that one

What's 'CW'?

Seriously though, the system as it is doesn't really work. If people can't handle freedom of information (mis-interpreting it as freedom from accountability for your actions), then you have to either restrict the freedom (never a popular choice) or restrict the information at the source(something you actually can do), by not publishing it. Cloud computing is sort of the baby steps in a new world, where the "MMO Principle" is taken to extremes. People will rent access to their favourite entertainment/software which runs serverside and you'll have a streaming client which accesses your account.

The most efficient way of stopping piracy is to stop making products that can be distributed digitally.

dum dum dum~ the air just got thicker That's one way of describing a Cone of Cold

Guys, let's pack up the emotional baggage and leave it at the thread entrance?

Whats with the obscured bits? Has this turned into Japanese porn?

There are a few pointers to the background story in Ulgoth's (sp?) Beard. The Dopplegangers did not act on their own, but as part of a scheme to infiltrate his tower. That's why he turned it into trap 101. Well, part of the reason.
