  1. Sanctuary Hills has yet to be attacked in my game. Mind you I over-did the defenses I think...
  2. Probably because adding 2 extra wildcard teams in the playoffs could mean that you have some really wonky possibilities. Considering there are 4 teams in each division in the AFC/NFC, you could have a scenario where each division could end up sending half their teams to the playoffs (1 champs, then 1 wildcards from each division) or you could end up with one division sending the entire division to the playoffs (4 champs, then 3 others from 1 division with 1 other team). You'd also have to add an extra week to getting the superbowl or lose the Bye week for the top two division teams. That said, I'm not crazy about the wild card system. We have 4 divisions, let the 4 division champs play. That said, the wildcard system as it currently is actually gives the potential to knock out a duff division champ for a superior team in another division (right now if we were heading to the playoffs this week, we'd end up with NFC East leaders Washington (5-7) playing NFC North's runner-up Minnesota (8-4) with odds being Minnesota would win).
  3. I don't recall specific verbiage about looking for an infant; there is a constant use of "mah baby!" but distressed moms will call even adult children their baby. That said a lot of the reaction stuff complaint for the previous thread is fair; companions seem to not really pay much attention to what is actually going on around them in any real strong way.
  4. Gogo's mimic power was awesome. Ultima => mimics Ultima
  5. I level ground all of them to level 99 fighting T-Rexes in the forest because I enjoyed it at the time. I...had a lot of free time on my hands... But realistically I liked everyone being kind of different and having weird abilities. Later FFs didn't seem to really have that unless they used the Job System.
  6. Always thought it was the best of the series. Mostly because I liked the party characters a lot.
  7. Krampus (2015) A family holiday get together manages to drive the Christmas spirit from one of their youngest, resulting in Krampus, not Santa, showing up for Christmas. Krampus brings with him monster toys, evil elves and a need to punish those who've been bad and/or who no longer believe in the Christmas spirit. The film is by the director of TRICK 'R TREAT, Michael Dougherty, and is in a mode similar to Gremlins in a way - its a comedy and a horror film. Lots of one liners zing (particularly from David Koechner and Conchata Ferrell who excel at the types of characters they're playing here) and the whole proceeding is handled rather well. It manages the trick that isn't often done of being a good Christmas film and a good horror film at the same time. Its not a perfect film (there's a couple of clunky family conflicts early on that could have been handled better) but it is, I think, a well made film.
  8. Doesn't make sense at all... How come Awwad bin Laden is son of Aboud Bin Laden is son of Ali Bin Laden...Ibn and Bin means the same that is "Son Of" Bin Ladin means "Son of Ladin" (for female it's Binti such as me Mizan Qistina Binti Ahmad Radzi Bin ismail Bin Ngah Lempong....Ngah Lempong is may great great grandfather...Binti means "Daughter Of") Nevermind... As I said, as near as I can tell and understand, the family took "bin Laden" as a patronymic western style family name. The same way we have Erikson (literally Son of Erik) as a family name in the west from the Icelandic tradition (example: Lief Erikson was the son of Erik "The Red" Thorvaldsson, who in turn was son of Thorvald Asvaldson, etc.) but has lost the literal meaning (ie not all Eriksons are the sons of Eriks).
  9. No his full name is Usamah Ibn Muhammad Ibn Awwad Ibn ladin, for an Arab he will be called Ibn Muhammad means "son of Muhammad" and not Ibn Ladin means "son of Ladin" in which that is his grandfather. Ladin have no meaning as i know and not even Arabic. If "Ala Ad Din" it makes sense meaning "faithful in religion" (or western called Aladin), or "Ad-Din" means "religious"...what's a "Ladin"? 'Usamah means Lion, RARELY for a Muslim given their children a name after an animal because the prophet don't like it For me, his name is just a made ups by someone...Al-Qaeda (Al-Qa'idah) itself don't make sense, it means "The Way", what way? There should be a chained with other words making it "The Way of........". It seems like "Do" in Japan also means "The Way", but it chained with something like Karate-Do, Ju-Do, Aiki-Do...for example, it should be "Al-Qa'idatul Islamiyah", or "Al Qa'idatul Muslimun", or "Al Qa'idatus Salafiyah"...or something like that. As I understand it, his father's name was Mohammed bin Awad bin Laden; the grandfather was Awad bin Aboud bin Laden. Great grandfather was Aboud bin Laden, great-great grandfather Ali bin Laden. Beyond that the "bin Laden" name appears to be potentially sourced by translations between multiple languages but used as a patronym by the family (meaning the last bin Laden isn't the great-grandfather but a reference to the family unit).
  10. Sweet. I'ma get my horny on in more ways than one. He seems like a noble guy, I wonder if I can corrupt him? Maybe if I sex him up I can get him to come over to the dark side. That would be awesome. I really should play the game again. It was fun.
  11. Can't say, didn't romance anyone in the one game I played. Internet seems to indicate you can. The internet also seems to imply you can romance both of them at once, though, so...not sure about that.
  12. BTW, Darkseid's Parademons around 2:00. Real or dream sequence - who knows?
  13. As I recall, "bin Laden" was a patronym taken from the family founder(?) named bin Laden from the village of Al Rubat in Yemen. So the full name is father/grandfather/patronym with the actual family name being al-Qahtani, as I understand it. Hmm...there is something fishy about that... "Farook and Malik had a six-month-old baby that they left with Farook’s mother before the shooting, according to a relative." Why would someone who just mareried, have 6 month old baby want to going martyr in a meaningless Jihad? Don't make sense... That's why a lot of people are wanting to wait for the investigation to finish; there are aspects of what happened that are similar to workplace violence rather than terrorism. In many ways its neither fish nor fowl - it doesn't completely match terrorism or workplace violence.
  14. Yeah I have Curie wielding a minigun, a rifle and a .44. Was fun when we tackled a glowing deathclaw.
  15. But are there hunky studs for me to sex up, right? Randval or Rhelmar, if you've met them.
  16. Mardi Gras: the RPG?
  17. Everything has happened Except that.
  18. Ahh, I was just thinking you would seal them in, but I suppose it would be helpful to try different arrangements.
  19. Not that it proves anything one way or the other... http://chicago.suntimes.com/news-chicago/7/71/532869/uber-driver-shoots-man-who-allegdly-shot-group-logan-square-sidewalk http://www.foxnews.com/us/2015/07/27/cincinnati-man-shoots-at-1-year-old-boy-is-shot-by-man-with-concealed-carry/ http://www.nbcphiladelphia.com/news/local/Man-Shot-in-the-Chest-Inside-West-Philly-Barbershop-297176271.html http://www.wsbtv.com/news/news/local/man-holds-would-be-carjacker-gunpoint-until-police/nmL4Z/
  20. What are the magnets for?
  21. Brimstone, IIRC. In the comics, Brimstone was a creation of Darkseid.
  22. Ah I haven't found that yet and maxed Curie out pretty quickly just being helpful around the Wasteland.
  23. After defeating the mole rats, I have a plague cure and a robot scientist companion. And an elevator up to the front of the base which...no one seems to have ever noticed given their surprise about the whole secret other vault. Note to Self: No muzak in elevator. One win for the Apocalypse? Running around the wasteland...again. Note to Self: Guess this town wasn't big enough for the two of us, Dead Eye... Found my way to a new town, Goodneighbor. There I found a place called "The Memory Den"...I could relive some of those pre-war times. What bad could happen? Note to Self: This. Oh look, its hubby and Shaun! ...about to be killed again... Note to Self: I hate the Memory Den so much right now. Recovering in the Memory Den, I met a pre-war ghoul and Silver Shroud fan who said that Hubris comics had some loot worth checking out. Right now, not looking so encouraging. Note to Self: Maybe I shouldn't run after every item some random person suggests might be worth something and is conveniently hidden in a wasteland lair full of mole-rats, feral ghouls, super-mutants, Yao-gui, general death, etc.? The Feral Ghoul Strikes! Or I guess more accurately is stricken by my bullets. Note to Self: "The Feral Ghoul Strikes" would have been a great name for a comic book. On the top floor, I found a Grognak the Barbarian costume. Note to Self: Rule 63 And the coveted limited edition Silver Shroud screen worn outfit & silver machine gun! Note to Self: Call now for yours and avoid disappointment and future regret!
  24. It could be a cave troll from LotR signalling DC is going to do a Justice League vs The Lord of the Rings film for all I know. But the word on the street about the film was that Doomsday was in it, and made out of Zod's bod.
