I don't want to derail this thread (especially as we have a LOST thread already), but I'll just say that I liked the ending to LOST and I think the show kept its quality up throughout. The weakest season is 4 imo, because although it's doing lots of cool flashforward stuff, the actual island plot is just moving groups of people back and forth for little to no reason (moreso than usual). It still has loads of great stuff in it, though. Season 3 does get off to a slow start after the amazing opening scene, thanks to the writers strike and a lack of end-date, but it picks up very quickly.

Yeah, this is a gold mine! My Oculus-Facebook tweet got 18 RTs and 16 favourites!

Eh, that's still a bit much to ask just to satisfy my own mild curiosity!

In my most recent playthough I solved that by I had even

Well, I need someone to blame for me having to watch The Fight...

That's phase 4...

I've examined the thread rules thoroughly, and it seems that as long as you are a "fan", those videos are permitted.

Dammit, man, Course: Oblivion is episode 17, not 18. I just accidentally watched The Fight. The Fight, for heaven's sake!

NEVER! (Actually, I normally do, but I couldn't help myself here for some reason.) I'm guilty of both those deserts/forte confusions, though.

asks the question. "Begging the question" is a type of fallacy.

An interesting development! I assume you don't give the guest reviewers the secret objective score formula...

Yeah, it's a brilliant spin on that with an added satirical edge. Looking forward to your list, Jon! SAM, I keep meaning to mention this: thanks to your comments about how you identify with Harry Kim, I can't help but think of him as being you transplanted into a fictional work somehow.

I'm still chugging through. I enjoyed the three remaining DS9 eps that I watched - the Kingon one, the sci-fi magazine one and the captain's log one. I'm generally enjoying the Voyager list, too. I just watched Living Witness and it was absolutely fantastic.

Your avatar says otherwise.

Mmmm, that was really good.

I dunno, I think they're just the original paperback releases, so if those did I guess these will. One of them did have that little story about Man and Dog and Frog at the back... I'm still on SOD!

I just had live (online) banter with Tim Schafer. I now know some of what it's like being a Thumb.

Okay, thanks! The consensus is definitely that I'm safe. As I said on the IRC earlier, as long as it's not stuff like it's cool. That Dorkin one is fucking brilliant. On the strength of that I'm probably going to end up getting into BPRD too. I've read up to Seed Of Destruction ish 3, and I'm enjoying it a lot more than I did when I buzzed through a library copy of SOD years ago. Speaking of the IRC, I didn't see all of it but Nappi and JKO were exchanging links to cool Hellboy stuff, like the 20 Years Of Hellboy book and the oversized hardbacks etc. Post those here, guys, while it's still Hellboy Day! Here's a nice mini-interview with Mignola picking out his favourite pieces from the 20 Years book: http://io9.com/mike-mignolas-favorite-artwork-from-hellboys-last-20-1548974210

Oops, missed your post! Ok, thanks, have gone for it. If I enjoy it I may start picking up the BPRD stuff anyway...

It's Hellboy Day! Dark Horse are doing a digital megabundle, and I'm tempted. But I'm worried that I would need to start picking up BPRD titles as well for this run to make narrative sense - any Hellboy fans who can advise on whether these will work fine on their own(I'm guessing BigJKO can if no one else)?

You haven't missed anything, possibly except that it was Domino who was struggling with Mercedes and that Manny wants to rescue her because he feels it was his fault that she ended up wandering the petrified forest alone after he pulled all his shenanigans (basically what Don yelled at him for in his office).

SPOOIIIILLLLERRRRS!

Basically, both the sign and the tree puzzles are constructed as playing around with a system to see what effect you can have on it...

That's not the reserves bench!
