I wouldn't trust the taste buds of a people who consumes Vegemite and Black Pudding Not really into sweets, but I can sometimes be bribed by chocolate. Austrian and Belgian in particular

...was thinking the same thing

I once asked the same thing about cricket down here and almost got lynched It's one of them cultural differences. The movie "Major League" with Charlie Sheen and Tom Berenger is as far as my knowledge of baseball goes. Maybe I'll learn a thing or two here

That *is* silly. I can understand that the legal system goes out of its way to protect the privacy of a person until found guilty, but afterwards? Should criminal records in general be publicly available? It might put a few journalists out of their job, but still.

Finally got solid ground under my feet again after a 70 hour work week, including a lot of time spent in the air or hanging around in airports Added another stuffed toy animal (a wombat) to my collection from an airport souvenir store Time to catch up on emails, laundry, pm's, forum events, snail mail, etc. and then crash on the couch watching a random DVD.

Maybe because that is how it is pronounced in German? In Danish too for that matter. Ooni... rather than Youni... a slip that happens for me too on occasion.

An ugly blue guy and some orange stuff on the cover, reminds me of something... Planescape: Torment box art. Marketing 101: Needs Sie in an "Ursula Andress" bikini on the cover too.

According to my former Kiwi colleagues, it sounds like the Orcs in the LoTR movies, but close enough I suppose

I first thought that Krezack was talking about a girl friend when reading the thread title

The opposite seems to be the case. The distance between Earth and Moon is constantly increasing. Some day it will just pack up and leave. Besides the oddity of no more tides, Earth might lose some of its stability and be more likely to wobble than it is now

It looks like this particular discussion wasn't destined for constructive results? Maybe some other day...

Moved to proper forum, although it only seems halfway related to Kotor2. Maybe more info could help solve your problem?

You sure your boss doesn't read forums? Nice machine. As much as I love Samsung monitors, I can't say that I've had much luck with their HDD's. Seagate may be "noisier", but at least they keep working

Political discussion moved to separate thread. Let me know if a different thread title for that one is better. Enough thread hijacking for today

I hope I never get so caught up in my own views, that I can not feel compassion for other peoples misery, even if they're not somebody I care about. Celebrities die, it's part of life. Ask yourself what you did today to make your life worthwhile

Walsingham with a scalpel... psychiatry?... Uh huh Thread getting a bit long. Continued here

Start of old thread End of old thread Nothing interesting. Some work, a bit of reading, sleeping late, watching a bit of DVD, not necessarily in that order. Sometimes Saturdays aren't too bad

Kill Gnomes? I like the sound of that. Does that game have a demo? ...dreams of killing 1000's of Jan Jansens... Maybe something where the player can cause a blight on the turnip harvest too? Playing a bit of Dead Space. Managed to get myself killed repeatedly onboard the military "rescue" vessel, playing tetris with the bunks

...and that it is the simplest possible way show visually how many points have been allocated to each skill doesn't have anything to do with it? I suppose they could have made the skills as pillars (columns) and then piled points from bottom to top instead, but then, somebody would probably point out that it looks very much like one of Biowares Tower of Hanoi games But besides that, there isn't really that many sensible ways you can represent that information.

Thread pruned a bit. Lets see if we can't do it without the name calling of Obsidians competitors and colleagues? It would save me a bit of unnecessary work. Unncessary work makes me grumpy.

I'll send the bill to Oner

Interesting read I wondered who "Joshua" were too >_

Them Freudian slips... Here be Dragons

Start of old thread End of old thread Dark Heroic thread continues...

You hear that guys? My excuse is, that English is only my third language, what's yours? Best romance mechanics in a game was KOEI's Djenghis Khan (sp?). If I remember correctly, you needed to court future wives/concubines (successfully) to secure offspring or the game would end at the natural lifespan of your current ruler.
