"Who is more trollish: the troll or the troll trolling the troll?" Obi-Wan Kenobi provides his wisdom on netiquette.

That's it! It belongs to the penguins! Problem solved. We can just organise a democratic referendum and the penguins can vote... Hang on a second. Penguins? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> (I think he means Polar Bears.)

It's not about the bit of ice-covered dirt, anymore than the Falklands was about it! (Falkland Islands annual squid fishing revenue >

didn't you try that about 500 years ago?

Technically, Black is not a colour.

Good on you, Mr Eru. (If I did such a thing, I would keep you in my prayers.) You may want to play a game of Diplomacy, now ...

:cool:

Billie Holiday - The Essential Recordings

Having witnessed Warne bowl, and specifically seen him collude with the wicketkeeper (Ian Heally, at the time) to bamboozle the (Pakistani) top-order batsman over less than one over, I can honestly say he is not hyped up at all. No wonder he has more wickets than anyone else ever: I'm betting he'll get his 600th wicket this series; probably even in the second test ... Actually, the biggest problem with English cricket is the County system. It breeds mediocrity; you can see at once that Peitersen is not from the English County Cricket machine. More's the pity.

That's what happens when the police use a computer-identikit programme.

Ditto. (It was in Wired or New Scientist back when it was news.) It's actually a little more interesting, too. There are in fact two rival "mad scientists" each developing their own cybernetic implants, and calling the other one "mad". IIRC, this is about the third person he's implanted a cybernetic interface with; the earlier versions were even more crude (and no chance for an upgrade!). "He's implanting into the ocular cortex with 68 platinum electrodes? Barbarian!" )

Yes you are. You are insisting that technically black does not mean "absence of colour". Which it does. Period. Underline. Double underline. Turn Page. Close Book. Send to publisher.

Try checking your spelling and homonym use. Are you building the post from wood? (If it wasn't for the context of your posts, you might have gotten away with it by suggesting that you were crafting subsequent posts ...)

But it was broken!

Those sneaky B*stards! "All your mods belong to US." I guess the best way to combat such underhanded tactics is to publicize the real authors and their work in the fan fora, like you are doing. And, again, well done with the modding guys. :cool:

Tell that to the brave lads (and lasses, in the case of Russia) on the front line ...

http://www.starwars.com/databank/ Do a search here for all that EU garbage info. Actually, a Jedi Jawa is probably the coolest thing I've heard on these boards all week. Probably the fact that Jawas look like ninjas! (Don't they have rotting skin, or something?)

Yep, the only thing that remained were the men. They were meant to be monks in the wooden satellite, but they ended up being prisoners incarcerated on some ... err, I forget ... I tried to repress all memory of that tragic film experience as soon as I saw it ...

Oh, I need a Fleet to convoy over a sea? *mumbles bloody Italians * Edit: Reveilled: don't forget to post the results here for all the spectators.

If there is IM functionality, then it should be complete with all the features found in IM packages (buddy/block lists); in fact it should be better and have even more useful features, e.g. categories of people trying to talk to you, spam control, etc. Of all the faults, this one is unforgivable. A competent UI is essential, and the minimum standard that should be expected in any game.

You did hear Bao-Dur in the beginning of the game (he was much better at the end, I guess by then he was used to reading), I take it? I wasn't sure if he had said his lines backwards, and the devs had reversed his recording ...
