Just spacing the icons out. (OCD neatness freak.) I will probably remove them to miscellaneous, soon, because I don't really use them (I downloaded it for System Shock 2). I use Firefox as well, but I don't like using it for Obsidian because of the wierd way it handles the mouse-scroller; it only sometimes scrolls the window down the webpage. I could handle a different behaviour, but the fact that it works sometimes but not when editing a post, for example, annoys me.

I feel your pain. You have to watch it, theres this f*cked up disco or whatever version, and then theres the real original version. If it says something like "special bonus..etc." then its the f*cked one <{POST_SNAPBACK}> This is "THE CLASSIC DOUBLE ALBUM REMASTERED & REPACKAGED!"

Triangulating geographic co-ordinates based on visible landmarks ... check. We'll be 'round for tea, DL; I like my Lamb Chops raw! ... Pembry: Sumbitch demanded lamb chops for dinner, extra rare. ...

Both are better suited as males. " <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Wrong. *End of Thread*

Ah. Well I'm glad you actually explained what you meant, as it was pretty impenetrable from the link and your initial comment! Now, yes, I do find that remarkably familiar as a general human trait.

Jeff Wayne's musical version of The War of the Worlds (digitally remastered), Disk One. Actualy, I think I like the original version better ...

Fame = revenue especially for an ambulance-chaser like Thomson. Now, every crackpot with half a lame idea will go to him, and he will give them an ear and proportional effort to the size of the punitive damages multiplied by the probablility of success, divided by the opportunity to make himself more famous.

That is, coincidentally, a perfectly useful trait for the game world!

Beware: blatant Night of the Iguana reference approaching:

Um, have you ever managed to log off reality? If so, what substance did you specifically use as a catalyst? ... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> ... That would be telling. You show me yours and I'll show you mine ...

But lambs are yummy! Hogget is a two-year-old, yearlings are the babies. Hoggets are meant to be best for roasting, but I think a good itty bitty baby tastes best. Of course, rabbits are sweeter ...

Exactly. The pace of the narrative must be sufficiently quick so as not to let the leaders start somnabulating, and sufficiently steady so as to let everyone come to the conclusion

I paid

Actually, you're both off. From the WIP page itself: Some of the modules listed at 0% are just a single, simple change. A lot of the ones listed at 100% are just a single, simple change. Your mistake is in weighing them all equally, because they should not have equal weight, and because I know for a fact that they do not average out in the end. Some of those modules in particular (the ones involving the KV stuff) are going to be an awful lot more work than the rest, owing largely to the recording and sound editing that needs to be done. They still haven't announced who's going to be doing the recording yet, so draw your own conclusions. It'll be done when it's done, and not before. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> He did say he was going back to school. Let's just hope that statistics is one of the subject areas being studied ... "

But, how do you know that? ZOMG! Now we know the Nazi secret advantage! Hitler was meta-wargaming!!!!11!!!!one!!eleven!!11!!|||1! Even if all material gain were divorced from the virtual gaming, there is still online gain (prestige; fame or infamy), and with it the motivation to achieve success at all costs. Do we level the playing field, and allow anything and everything? Or do we invent some abstract gaming environment that is so discontinuous with RL that it is virtually (:D) impossible to cheat?

Only now, young Jedi, do you understand ...

The best argument against human genetic engineering ... Beware Harold!

Is it Joan of Arc? Hah. What's good about that is it never occurred in the game, yet it was the most prevalent imagery before release. :D PS Here is my desktop:

Well, that at least seems pragmatic. I don't believe it is possible to extirpate unwanted

If :alanschu: is obliged to play in another standard game, then we can kick off game 4 "soon". :D I think it is perfectly reasonable for new players to play in the standard game, then (if they wish) progress to the variants that others wish to play.

Perhaps you are unaware that there are pages written before this one? Those little number above the top post, on the left, represent different pages. The little Less-Than sign means "read one page back", and the double angled left bracket means "go to the first page". Similarly for the Greater-Than and Right double angled bracket, reading forwards. I remember making a thread about this. Good subject. Make a new one? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Oh well; no harm done if we just speculate here then? What could be the games, shall we say, focus, then? The character(/s) should have some kind of agenda. In crpgs it's usually an universal threat of some kind. In SW however this is mostly characterized by Sith, leading us back to jedis. Any ideas how to overcome this? <{POST_SNAPBACK}>

The problem you encounter, though, in trying to police any metagaming boundaries

YOU. WILL. BE. EX. TERRRRR. MIN. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATE. TED! 1!!11!!!!!!eleven!11!!one!!|!\!!

Maybe it is a motorised planet? The Daleks were trying to bore out the magnetic core of the Earth, to replace it with a big engine, so that they could pilot a big planet around like an intergalactic carrier, in Dalek Invasion of Earth. :ph34r:
