But... but... they were using Kung-Fu! Why ruin a good story by hearing both sides of it?

Mandalore!
I think you just about covered all two of them There might have been more to them than was visible in the released game, but I can't remember what it was I read (somewhere on Team Gizkas forums). Maybe they were supposed to give you influence points with Canderous or some such originally?

Error 2
Could it be related to this? http://gigaom.com/2008/03/14/the-telia-cog...n-web-for-many/ It's apparantly affecting a lot of people in Europe and the US, depending on how peoples connections gets routed.

New Dev Posters?
Crates... Barrels... they are such hollow things. What about the quality of our sewers and time honoured traditions like Rat Bashing? :sad:

Pictures of your games
"Poultry" ?!? Are they throwing chickens at you?

No One Lives Forever 1
I suppose some of the mutated fleshy blobs that tries to tear out your throat could have been chicks. I was too busy dodging them to ask for a date though I'll not spoil the endings for you, just give you a few hints. It depends on a mix of amount of money, prestige/rank and which ones of the npcs you run across during the game is alive at the end

Biggest nonsense you've ever seen from a game.
@BG1 I thought that was the point of getting Xar and Montaron, cannon fodder I haven't really played BG1 that much, but I waited until a number of guards were concentrated in front of the Inn, then had Montaron lure him within range of the guards, then have the rest of my party gang up on him. The trick is to kill him fast Favourite hate/bad designs: BG2TOB: Peasants and beggars with +3 swords and enough gold to buy a small mansion. KOTOR: Beating the crap out of Malak to the point where he is wallowing around on the floor, trying to stuff his enthrails back in with his amputated hands, just to have that silly girl run to him, lock the doors and then surrender without a fight. NWN2: Forced companions, "Grind" areas. OBLIVION: Everything (maybe not quite fair, I only played it for 8 days) EUROPA UNIVERSALIS III: Cheating AI ALL: Quests that gets stuck in your "to-do" list when they have become unsolvable. Probably a lot more, but those are the ones that is foremost in my mind.

What are you playing now?
If you have Qara in your party, you should be able to get a few chaotic points by agreeing with her actions in general. Edit: The merchant with the imps at the Academy should also be able to provide you with a bit of chaos.

No One Lives Forever 1
One thing that took a while to penetrate that thick skull of mine was, that I needed to stay focused on the main objectives. I put my self in a lot of hurt and unnessecary danger trying to solve each and every mission Since you don't "level up", there is very little benefit in just running around killing stuff. Better to conserve your favourite equipment and supplies for when you need it. ...and now I think I completed the thread hijack from Nolf to Stalker

Happy Easter!
Thread pruned a bit. Somebody enlighten me, what is the purpose of going on a personal crusade of intolerance because somebody wishes people a happy Easter? Forget that, don't answer it.

Absolute Morality Vs. Subjective Morality
Nonsense! *he continues affably* If you are sick with fever, and I kick a stone into a lake, that would be neutral. It depends... shouldn't you be trying to do something to help him cure his fever rather than kicking stones into the lake. Is not taking action the same as taking action as far as morality goes? >_

Vista Land
Odds are, if you wait 2 years, you will finally be able to get Windows 7 (formerly known as "Vienna", formerly known as "Blackcomb") which began development in 1999. Lots of trouble kept/keeps postponing Vienna and resulted in Vista being released as... not sure what it's purpose is really. A stop gap thing to ensure people buy Microsoft products? If possible, I would like to wait and skip Vista alltogether

China geopolitics
I think what China needs/is aiming for is more internal stability. For all it's size and alledged powerful communist party rule, it is a very frail country, weakened by lack of infrastructure, corruption, lack of national identity, governed by tribal traditions, family clans and a truck load of other problems. What the world doesn't need is a China falling apart like Iraq. Creating external enemies to deflect attention has often been a successful formula for other countries in the past.

Absolute Morality Vs. Subjective Morality
I have a cup of coffee here. I wonder if it is good or evil? That is, I don't really believe the world to be that black and white. Maybe you you can have actions that are perceived as good or evil by a majority of people? According to my own experiences, people perceive good as that which they agree with and evil as that they disagree with. That is based emtirely on subjective observation and not any deep philosophical reasoning
