This decade ends in 5 months, doesn't it?

"All your battleship are belong to us!" Downloading at the moment. I wonder if I'll survive the game until the printed manual arrives (bought the download+physical box)...

I am not exactly financially challenged, but I do worry about the time I am going to spend on it. Still having flashbacks to the time I bought EU III It sounds exactly like the kind of game I would like. Need a replacement for War in Russia and War in the Pacific (old SSI dos games available for free from Matrix games website).

First salvo... B3 - C4 - D5! Ok, maybe not Dammit, I am getting more and more interested in this game, not at least after reading your previous threads. I really don't have the time, but... Eek! Time to go shopping at Matrix Games I think.

You are missing the entire point Tigranes... It is about how to troll. A good troll can insult people without without them knowing it, a young and inexperienced troll needs to debate and obfuscate the intentions by a debate on semantics And a couple of the old timers... sheesh, eating hook, worm, sink and all ...and with that, it seems like the original subject has been buried in the sands of time.

Doesn't the dragon get suspicious when you start fishing around for info on how to damage it?

I don't quite know what you are talking about, but isn't just adding something like: [img=www.kingofsquid.com/mygallery/forumimages/salamando.gif] To your signature? Replace the url between the img tags with a proper url and not my made up one.

Things you feel needs to be done. Either out of moral obligation or whimsical indulgence Edit: That is the short version. Being at work at the moment, I am a bit pressed for time for a longer explanation. Time allowing, I'll add a more indepth answer. A slightly longer answer... Introduction: For reasons I really don't get, I see humanity as so limited that it scary. What is worse is, it is self imposed limitations. We always try to "fit" in ideals created by a few individuals. We are slaves to ideologies, fashion, cultural fads, belief systems, all kinds of human made value systems. A few "visionaries" sometimes manage to move a tent pole here or budge the general opinion a bit here, but overall, we tend to group think. Group think in Gorths world means that the IQ of the group is the reciprocal of the number of members of the group. Middle part: Narrowmindedness is the greatest enemy of humanity. That is why I take great pleasure in poking fun at dogma and doctrine alike (I do try to be inoffensive about it), just as I in life outside the internet try to kick some sense into people and encourage independant rather than conditioned thinking. We we really should be better than Ivan Pavlovs dogs. Limited thinking is one of the few things that gets me really agitated (and I normally control my emotions better than Mr. Spock). Humanity could be so great if we tore down the walls in our minds and worked on a betterment of us all as a whole. Yeah, that would be "Gorthopia" Conclusion part: And what has that to do with doing "things" I hear you say? I believe that to be a more complete person and better expand your thinking, you need to experience life in all its facets. In order to see beyong your current visual range, you need to move to the next hill to get a better view. People need to experience sorrows and joys, failures and successe, gains and losses to expand their horizons. Scholarly studies only gives you enough to pass the theoretical test of life, to pass the practical test, you need to go out their get a bloody nose. Sometimes the experiences are pleasant, sometimes hurtful, all them adds to a greater understanding of what it means to be human. I am not really sure that I need to tell you in particular that, since I suspect you have a pretty good idea already. Next up on Gorths to-do list is to buy a motor cycle (already started looking around for one) and come spring, I shall ride towards the sunset, being the lone horseman of the apocalypse

Not only does he talk, he is good at math too Not quite there yet, although humanity does practise getting flooded a lot One heaven reaching building coming up. The envy of any Babylonian! In the end, all it takes is for a charismatic enough person to convince other people that his idea is the right one.

Gorthology... has a nice ring to it Nah, I am a Pragmatheist. I believe in doing things.

I am getting close to what I think is the end now. If not scary, it at least gets very "spooky", entering the hideout of the followers of those religious nut cases. Very atmospheric indeed

*Applauds*

They sure know how to make the Foreign Legion sound like an attractive alternative Are people really that desperate to feel "special"?

Ooh, so that is why they added the plant woman, that is for the tree-huggers! Maybe her favoured enemy is "vegetarians"? I am getting curiouser and curiouser about this game, and that despite the cheap marketing ploys, not because of. Since Kotor1 was my last Bioware game, I think I could survive another dose by now

Sounds like the place bad people go when they die on the internet I remember hearing the name before, can't remember who mentioned it though. It's probably better to get all the information before passing judgement on AT&T's actions.

Hey, you never know which asteroid comes with a "3rd planet from The Sun" as its delivery address Disclaimer: I've never read the text in question, so I wouldn't know how it fit into the context of the rest of the events to take place.

Gah! You're right. Austria is not Germany. What's the difference between the two anyway? It's a bit like asking, what is the difference between the USA and Canada ...or how do you sum up 800 years of history in a few lines? Short version, Austria is a country and has been for very long time. Germany is an amalgam of a bunch of other germanic countries (Austria excluded), which lives together in an empire/federation (and is only a few centuries old). Otto von Bismark is often credited with leading the unification wars. After Prussia and Austria had conquered most other german speaking nations as "allies", they went to war against each other over the spoils. Prussia won out in the end and a united "Germany" was the result. I am sure Morgoth can add more details/correcting my mistakes. Austria had for many centuries close ties to Spain and The Netherlands/Burgundy through family ties (the Habsburgs).

Gene manipulated tomatoes? It is probably going to be something we eat. It either makes us all glow in the dark before we perish or it turns us all sterile over a period of 200 years.

Either way it still is same price, just like 50 bucks a year would equal 4.20 bucks a month (I think) The difference can be all important to a company, especially if they have large running costs like salaries. The keyword is 'cash flow'

It's called "population control"

Playing Dead Space again... finally made my way out of the military vessel (like 25+ reloads later). On a side note, Dead Space is the only game where I suffered death by hentai so far. Damn tentacles
