  1. prediction: the first female mlb player will be an american league knuckleball pitcher. haven't seen the show you reference, so am not knowing if she is a knuckler. HA! Good Fun! She's a screwball pitcher in the show, as I understand it.
  2. Can't have too much myoglobin
  3. Yeah I was primarily talking the rare to well-done preparation, not an Upton Sinclair's The Jungle sort of thing...
  4. IIRC Bioware have already stated that the trip to Andromeda will take 600 years. Which is probably why they've set it as a dual exploration/colonization thing. I'd imagine there's more buy-in for volunteers when they can take their family with them in cryosleep and such.
  5. I don't think there is a Hercules in Space by name, but one of the 1980s Lou Ferrigno Hercules films has sequences in space. I'm not sure the changes in Andromeda could be attributed to simply "it wasn't working" (I'd also dispute that it "went for fun" too, since my memories are that the series got bogged down pretty quickly in its mythology and overarching stories). The show itself was cobbled together from unused ideas of Gene Roddenberry (part of the idea for this series can be seen in the TV movies GENESIS II, STRANGE NEW WORLD and PLANET EARTH); Sorbo was a star coming off Hercules and the production didn't want to bury him in an ensemble; the ensemble included Rev Bem whose full body suit was wearing out the actor and Trance Gemini whose makeup shifted colors in natural light from the studio and necessitated creating artificial reasons why the character showed up in location scenes. I think a number of the supporting cast existed because they weren't sure what the show really was, and it wasn't until it'd been running for a bit that they were able to figure out how to address it (I don't say this to mean it was bad; Tom Baker's first season on Doctor Who has a similar feel; Harry Sullivan exists as a companion because they weren't sure who the Doctor was going to be; once they got through the scripts commissioned before they figured it out - they wrote the character out).
  6. I don't understand why anyone cares how anyone else eats their steak.
  7. I was totally the market for FO:BOS when it came out - I liked the setting, I liked the console action games that had come out around that time (Dark Alliance, Champions of Norrath, Hunter: The Reckoning) but I just didn't like FO:BOS.
  8. Similar but not the same as I understand it. The Democratic party has Super-Delegates to the Democratic convention, so while the primary elections will determine which delegates or sent (or in what proportion for non-Winner-takes-all states), the Super-Delegates can, potentially, swing the party away from the vote of delegates. No such entity exists in the Electoral College (and shouldn't, IMO).
  9. It isn't spamming, in my opinion, since each bug is relevant to the forum and relevant to the developers. I agree with mccrispy that ideally a poster should check to see if a bug has been reported and post in the existing thread with the useful information to provide for their own encounter with that bug before starting a new thread. But if you've found 10 new bugs for the latest release that haven't been reported before, feel free to post ten new threads.
  10. Hello, sorry you're encountering the bug and alas I can't help you with it. However to help the developers, can you provide all of the general information and any gameplay information you think is relevant - General (For all issues) What device type are you on? Android/iPad, etc. What version of the OS are you running? Android 4.4, iOS 9.3, etc. What model is the device? Galaxy Tab 3, iPad Mini 4, etc. What is your PFID#? (Located in the settings menu) Gameplay Is pass & play on? Is permadeath on? Tutorial, Story Mode, or Quest Mode? (If not quest mode, did you recently enter it?) Characters in Party Location of each character Turn Order Scenario & Scenario Difficulty. If on non-normal difficulties, which wildcard powers are in play? What card was encountered when the issue occurred? (Or check, or card just played, etc) Did the issue occur on the first explore or a subsequent explore? If subsequent, what card did you last encounter? What was its resolution? (IE, you just encountered an enchanter and failed the check, and on an additional explore you ran into a blessing of the gods but didn't auto acquire it) Did other characters aid the check? What did they use to aid it? Was the encounter a Horde? (Skeleton Horde, Goblin Raid, Zombie Nest, Zombie Horde, Garrison Location Power w/ multiple characters, Henchmen encounter in Black Fang w/ multiple characters) This may help the developers to identify the problem when they log this problem.
  11. I still remember the weekend FALLOUT BROTHERHOOD OF STEEL was announced. Crazy times on the old message boards...
  12. I donated a bunch of stuff to Goodwill of West Palm Beach back when I moved out of South Florida. I was carrying boxes out a U-haul into their warehouse and the two ladies inside were going through them. One of them liked one of my ex's purses I guess. She took it out of the box to her car. I figured whatever. I had a receipt for it. Not much more I could do. Never had any problems with Goodwill here, and have donated a fair amount of things to them over the years, particularly clothes still in good condition.
  13. No alts. While I think there was legitimate reasons to go with an alt back in the BIS days, I'm not so sure they make sense now, so didn't even ask if I could do it. Plus I have so many logins for everything now, it'd take me 40 minutes to remember my login everytime I wanted to mod something. I hear there were masts, yards, sails and cordage, so I'd think rigging was involved...
  14. Payuntio, thanks for your report. Could you provide any information listed here - https://forums.obsidian.net/topic/86274-reporting-issues-useful-information-to-provide/ - so those who can perhaps hel will have as much information as possible to find the issue? General (For all issues) What device type are you on? Android/iPad, etc. What version of the OS are you running? Android 4.4, iOS 9.3, etc. What model is the device? Galaxy Tab 3, iPad Mini 4, etc. What is your PFID#? (Located in the settings menu) Gameplay Is pass & play on? Is permadeath on? Tutorial, Story Mode, or Quest Mode?

  15. Moved to the P&P Forum. Hopefully a Pathfinder RPG player can help. Sadly I've only ever flipped through the books. If you think this move was in error, pm me.
  16. The Adele Blanc-Sec film got a USA release from Shout Factory in 2013. https://www.shoutfactory.com/film/action-adventure/the-extraordinary-adventures-of-adele-blanc-sec
  17. "Listen, this old system of yours could be on fire and I couldn't even turn on the kitchen tap without filling out a 27b/6..." nope, before or after my time, I'm afraid.
  18. Thanks for the welcome. Although I know secretly everyone is happy that now I can't go into my 'back when I was a mod' routine anymore.
  19. Awww man. RIP Robert Vaughn

    To me voice acting is a tool in the toolshed. Its neither good nor bad in itself (nor is lengthy descriptive text), its all about what the game is and how its implemented.
  21. Yeah, I enjoy LoT a lot, but its a terrible show in most respects. And yet they keep coming up with funny instances that make it worth watching. Stein's fear of zombies last episode, Heatwave's reaction to pretty much everything in the 80s this episode...the line about Ray being able to science anything was lol funny.
  22. DeHaan is 30; however I think people these days tend to look younger in their 30s than they did in the 60s-70s.
  23. The general complaints I've heard are - *National standards take away states rights and states control *One size fits all standards don't allow room for adjustments to classroom demographics *National standards places even more standardized testing in the path of over-tested students. *Does nothing to address the incentives to move students on regardless of achtievement *Common core standards weren't tested in the classroom before implementation. *Common core relies on rote learning methods and doesn't allow room for creativity. *emphasis on certain subjects leaves little room for the arts or computer science in the curriiculum *textbooks will most likely be aimed at two largest school markets (texas, California) leaving no room for inclusion of local history or authors
  24. She recovers from the phone booth pretty well and I think defends herself in the diner well. Always bugged me that Annie got killed off screen, to be honest, given that she seemed pretty savvy and aware of what's going on. Her dearh seemed to warrant a better justification. As for kid actors, Veronica Cartwright was one of the better ones (and ~15 years later would do well in INVASION OF THE BODY SNATCHERS and ALIEN...)
  25. I've done it everytime I've done ME1 on console, which was quite a few. Then again, I'm one of those guys who tried to completely mow the fog of war in the IE games, and the copy-pasting content in DA2 didn't bother me, so I may just have a high tolerance level for the flaws in the MAKO implementation.
