Old thread.
(http://www.hcrealms.com/forum/showthread.php?t=310732&page=67)

This thread's name tasks me. It tasks me and I shall have it! I'll chase it 'round the moons of Nibia and 'round the Antares Maelstrom and 'round Perdition's flames before I give it up!

Back on the subject of SK wins, my very first win was as SK. Not only an SK, but one that didn't have a 100% chance to succeed in killing at the start of the game.

And unless you're the jester, you shouldn't get lynched on purpose. It completely F's the mod's attempt at game balance.

So what do I do?
I restarted the computer, changed internet settings, and browsed adobe's help section, but so far nothing works. Any ideas?

Can they also deny new threads to people who routinely display incompetence in posting a link to the new thread at the end of the old thread?

It's especially infuriating when I see them go through the effort to do it the other way around, which serves no purpose at all. It's right up there with posting a thread to say that something exists, without posting a link to it.


"Buh, Thawmus! If they post the new thread and then try to link to it in the last post, someone might beat them to the punch, and then their penis size will be indeterminate as a result!"

And man I am ticked at myself. I got my new shiny computer processor yesterday. My wife was at church and I got the kids to bed. I got out the new motherboard and processor to install. Got everything out and ready, then discovered the RAM that I have is the wrong type and won't fit in the new motherboard. Then I find out that none of the stores in town have what I need. So I ordered new RAM this morning and hopefully it gets here by Easter. So pissed at myself right now.

...speaking of which, the place where I can pick it up is open between 8AM and 10 AM, and 3 PM and 6 PM. So it looks like I need to go there at 8AM tomorrow, as that is the only time I'll be able to get a ride.

That's your problem, don't take it seriously (even if it was probably intended that way.) The sheer ridulous of most of it, esspecially the use of jets had me cracking up.

Question: I'm jonesing to play some Portal 2, but I've only played the first 20 levels of Portal on Demo. Should I just DL Portal, play that to the end, then DL Portal 2?

Where are you downloading them from? If you already bought it then yes or if you got it for free... otherwise I would probably just go and get orange box for the xbox from like gamestop or something for 10 bucks :-/ Portal 2 seems to continue from the first game a bit

Just unlocked the full game from the demo I had for like 6 bucks. No time whatsoever. Fun.

I'm having game night in an hour. What should we play? We have:

Shogun
Battlestar Galactica (and the Expansions)
Fury of Dracula
A Game of Thrones (and the 1st Expansion)
Arkham Horror (& Dunwich)
Space Alert
Carcassone
Diplomacy
Settlers of Catan
Three Musketeers
Twilight Struggle
Commands and Colors
1960: Making of the Presidency

Italics; 2 player and thus not a good idea when we are a party of 5.


My full collection: http://boardgamegeek.com/collection/user/Emperador%20Carlos?own=1&subtype=boardgame&ff=1

Get Puerto Rico, it's 2-5 players and it's a little bit like Catan but much more strategy and no element of randomness.

We've had some fun with WOTC's Castle Ravenloft too if you guys are into D&D and don't have anti-4th edition dorks in your ranks... :cheeky:

Is there a mod who isn't going to be playing in Valve mafia who would be willing to take a look over the roles? I did some readjusting, and I want to make sure the balance is right, and that I'm not getting too crazy.

Also, I need more players for Valve Mafia! I'd like to start in the next week or two, and I need more players before the experiment can begin!

We played Nutz for the first time last night. It's a lot like Poo, but kind of the opposite in that you want to grab nuts instead of avoid poo. I'm trying to figure out how to combine the two games. Going out on a limb, I bet this company's next game will be called balls or some reference to a cat.

I've been wanting to try Puerto Rico, but I thought it was 3-5 players. The wife and I are always looking for good 2-player games.

If you need to buy a new game though, try Pirate's Cove or Galaxy Trucker. And for a challenge, play Galaxy Trucker on Nyquil or some other mentally incapacitating medicine.

I know they have a smaller, mostly card based version called San Juan from the same maker which is also supposed to be very good, and I'm sure it's only 2 player.

Eh, she was dang cute as a girl, but she grew out of it. She doesn't look like she did on PoF, so I don't really have a problem with her other projects.
I have to agree that this (http://www.picturesx.net/data/media/345/Michelle_Trachtenberg_pics.JPG), on the other hand, is mildly discomforting.

I was reading some place where Gaga said it was a mix up, and that she hadn't heard it yet, it was just "canned" by someone else. Not sure how much you can believe that, but we'll see in the coming days.

Anyway, Yvonne Strahovski did an awesome parody of her on CollegeHumor this week (linked it last night on FB)

Well, there were news articles about it, most of which were painting Gaga in a bad light. After all, Al was even going to donate the proceeds to one of Gaga's favorite charities, and he was still told no. So I'm thinking if Gaga really didn't hear the song first, she should be a little annoyed at her manage who claimed no on the song.

I'm thinking it was just backpedaling from the backlash.
