Sorry, sorry. /sarcasm on the end of that. I pay plenty of attention to politics, I just wish I didn't, because my brain boils frequently. We are about ten minutes past fucked o'clock here, which I why I was going to move to England. But now I hear from reliable sources (Patters, among others) that they too are approaching fucked o'clock. Bermuda, maybe?

So I just grabbed a bunch of junk (I'm leaving myself a 100 dollar limit for the sale, just spent 50, so I have some nice leeway for daily deals), the multiplayer ones being; - Medieval 2 TW Gold - Silent Hunter (4) Wolves of the Pacific (cause I'm sure you all are going to rush out and buy that ) - Greed Corp, because it looks hilarious and I'm a whore for tactics games - The FEAR Collection (because I have no idea where my disks for 1 are, so why not have the set) And because I've been feeling Nostalgic for Novalogic (someone shoot me for that one), I grabbed Commanche 4. Which. . .apparently has MP? Dunno. Helicopters! Pew pew. Ahem. All in all, this sale is already my monies worth. I am a consumer whore. (And of course naturally I grabbed Strangers Wrath.) Oh! On the Civ 4 VS 5 topic. They're both amazingly well done games, and the series of expansions for 4 is quite good (Warchiefs is passable, but BtS is a must) so it's up to you, really. Sidebar for Civ 5: There was a giant uproar on the interwebs when 5 was released that had people bitching en masse about how the graphics were a step down from 4. Am I crazy (in that the graphics are fine, if not better) or is everyone else?

Hip-shots, with a blindfold and an ear trumpet.

I don't have room on my hard drive for the 200 something I have now! What the hell would I do with 100 more!? . . .Actually, I can think of a lot of things I would get. But I won't win it, so bleh. . . .Maybe I will. Dunno. I finally won something for the first time ever today (a code for the latest UO expansion from Massively) so I probably won't win anything for another 26 years.

Your hand, and/ couch. Two more!

I heard "Dovakhiem" so. . .whatever.

We've got five (5) players so far. This means we need three (3) more. It's free of obligation, folkses!

Oh hey. I got 10 without trying. Splendid. Not that it'll do me any good!

TOMOROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW. I am almost giddy.

My apologies. Erwin just had the sign on his chateau so I assumed. Still very awesome, still fuck your maze. Good gods.

True. Part of the reason I hate politics and try my best to ignore them. Which becomes harder as I get older.

Actually Rodi, you're probably close. That's very much the basic sort of Elder Scrolls formula.

I said to Thompson yesterday that you may be reduced to text adventure forever and ever. I cannot comprehend what those things must feel like, but I imagine they suck in large measure. I really don't know what to say other than that, but I am around if you need to spake. (. . .Why doesn't Chrome have issues with spake?)

I am now utterly incapable of taking this game seriously. That is, I am utterly incapable of taking this game anywhere other than motherfuck town.

Doug! Stop being a wet blanket and turn on mobs. Erwin! Man, your chateau and house on haunted hill are amazing. I visited both at night time, astoundingly good stuff. Also, fuck your maze.

My gods. Someone in the senate isn't a ravenous, self-interested douchebag! Everything I know is wrong! (Maybe that "I" next to his state his something to do with it. ) Good on him.

I have a Key in lieu of my normal MMO monthly payment, so I can host one for people who are interested. List of people so far: Gwardinen Myself Fatcat Grufff Anyone else? 6 more slots.

Holy shit, someone else that thinks that. /sarcasm They don't bother me as much as they used to, once I realized that all they basically do is hang out, turn on a camera and occasionally (or so I like to imagine), nudge each other in the ribs and go "Do something review-y!"

Nooooope.

Uh, if I understand how it works, you'd be gifting the copies you just "bought" not your existing one. As for the Oddboxx, which now that you mentioned it, I'll have this problem too, I'm not sure if they'll allow it. You should shoot the folks at Oddworld Ent. a Twitter or email.

Depends on the game, but most of the time (and definitely with Valve games) you can.

I can sort of see why you people like Neptune's Pride, if the two are even remotely similar. Here's the situation. I hold Eldercourt, a Wizard's Tower, with 15 Cyclops. In 11 hours, 64 zombies are about to come out of the wilderness and beat my face in. But wait! Another player gives me 12 Yellow Coins. This allows me to reinforce my cyclops army with 5 more cyclops, for 8 Yellow. This also allows me to use the cyclops special ability, Hypnotic Gaze. That ability holds an army in place for X hours. X being the number of cyclops in the army /2. I've just given myself 7.5 extra hours, bringing the arrival time of the zombie army up to just under 18 hours. Tax time is in 12 hours. But, I have 30 blue coins, because I don't have a nearby human settlements to bribe. A Wizard's Tower however, is a human settlement. And a Circle of Wizards costs 12 Blue Coins to recruit. They can cast Lightning Storm, which does X damage to an army, where X is number of wizards x whatever. This cools down. . .in 10 hours. Eldercourt already has nominal walls, giving me a +10 strength bonus. I can spend another 4 blue coins to bump that up to a +20 strength bonus. . .in just over 17 hours. I've gone from what I assumed was a losing cause (or at the very least, I'd move my cyclops out just in time to get the tax money from Elder Court) to what could end up being a very significant blow against the Blight. Loving this game.

I have two Nation Red codes if anyone would like them (if Squid doesn't mind me co-opting his thread) It's basically L4D2 survival, but played like Alien Swarm. (IE. Isometric, WASD, aim with mouse)

What the goat. . .now basketball bots?

I swear to god, I won't multipost for a week! So I started a game over at RPS forums (I spent money, yes) and any of you are welcome to become a part of it. Any Google account will get you into the site/beta. Simply go to the "Join Game" page and scroll down to browse "Custom Games" Game name: The Shotgun Cyclops Keyword: "Iron Quinns" (sans quotations) I promise not to steal your orcs like I did to that dude in my first game.
