Re: How long does it take.....
Speaking of voting, what do you think about Georgia's attempt to require ID cards to vote? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Re: How long does it take.....
I drove through Georgia once and stopped at a roadside fruit stand. Those were about the best peaches I've ever had.

Re: How long does it take.....
I saved Peach at least... what, fifty times in various games involving a plumber.

Re: How long does it take.....
You know, I've been having a lot of fun with an emulator for the original NES and a bunch of ROMS... including Mario ones!

Re: How long does it take.....
I was walking in the park the other day and noticed that a bird had died. I bent over to investigate when a cat sprang from the shrubs and snatched the bird right out from in front of me. I gave chase but the skinny fury ball was to fast. Later I returned to the park with a gun and shot the cat. As I bent over to investigate, a coyoty sprang from the bushes and snatched the dead cat right out from under me. I shot the coyoty but it did not stop running until it was hit by a bus. The bus then crashed into a parked car, which exploded, before it broke through the bridge barrier and plunged head long into the deep freezing columbia river.
The moral of the this story is, don't change the topic. |
Re: How long does it take.....
You know this one time at band camp...

Re: How long does it take.....
I should have joined the band back in elementary school. Then I could have learned to play a musical instrument and had some fun. Oh well, better late than never. I'm currently learning piano.

Re: ADD percentage.
When I was a kid I went dirt biking in Eastern Oregon, or was it western Idaho? Anyway from atop a hill I looked down into a valley and saw a vehicle kicking up a lot of dust and moving fast. It was a B-52! just a few feet off the ground kicking up dust like a truck! Wowza!
I like Avatars, they are an afront it Islam. Dirka Dirka Jihad! |
Re: How long does it take.....
They just got away with it in Washington, after removing our long-standing tradition of having primary elections where everyone could vote for a candidate from any parties. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/mad.gif
Personally I think we should rebel... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif but so few people care... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/Sick.gif PvK |
Re: How long does it take.....
Trust me, I do, I really do. I honestly think it's time for another world war soon. Or a rebellion in the US, same effect. Either way the world will be changed (almost) unrecognizably.[/pessimism]

Re: How long does it take.....
Speaking of off-topic, how are everyone's SEIV games going? I have three going, but two of them are temporarily stalled.

No I really have the hypnitic avatar.. Oh lookee a bird....
|
Re: ADD percentage.
I once spent several minutes staring at that avatar until I finally snapped out of it and forced myself to look away.

Re: ADD percentage.
I used to have an animated avatar, back in 1923. 'Course, we had to call them "faces" back then on account of computers not having been invented yet. Anyway, this was about the time I was elected president of the African National Congress - or was it the Lower Throop Pigeon Fanciers' Association? I don't rightly recall - it was about the time I was dating Nobel Prize winner Chief Albert Luthuli's sister, so it must have been the pigeon fanciers. She did love her pigeons, that girl. One time she and I were out fishing for pigeons - that was what we called it back then, on account of fish not having been invented yet. This was back in the 1870's you understand, just after World War II - not the World War II you're thinking of though, but the other one, the one with all the grapefruit - or was the the Third World War II? Anyway, rationing was still in effect, except for grapefruit of course, but on account of grapefruit not having been invented yet, everyone was mighty hungry. That was where I acquired the taste for human flesh, but of course in those days- this was back in the sixteenth century, you see- in those days no-one really minded on account of all the monkeys. They'd be running around in the trees with all the particle accellerators - particle accellerators being what we called chimpanzees back in the fourteen hundreds, caused a hell of a hooha later on in the ice age when they invented those other particle...

Re: ADD percentage.
Well, it was approximatively 12:55 for him when he posted (definitively past noon in any case). I suspect most of the world would disagree with your assessment that noon is sometime during the night. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif
Of course, his post was supposed to be confused, and confusing. In fact, my initial reaction to it was "flabbergasting"... or perhaps it was "flopaunihilification". Bah, I can't even begin to spell it. |

Re: ADD percentage.
My daughter asked what a solar eclipes was after seeing it in a cartoon. After explaining that was what happens when the sun moves behind the moon, I then explained that a lunar eclipse was when the earth moves between the moon and sun.
Being a smart cookie, she then asked me what it is called when the sun moves behind the earth. I said "night, but I guess you could call it an Earthly eclipse." Now we call night time an earthly eclipse. |
Meh... what\'s in a topic... anyway?

ToME is not online... well, OK, there is an online version, but the main game isn't. It's a roguelike http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif
|
Re: Meh... what\'s in a topic... anyway?
Yep, it's a roguelike based heavily on the works of Tolkien, and there's an option to start your character as a ghost trying to escape from the Halls of Mandos. Despite getting tons of bonuses, like increased speed, automatic detection of monsters from a long distance, and the ability to walk through walls, these Lost Souls usually die very quickly. I think it has something to do with starting at depths where ancient dragons are the least of your worries and your character is only level 1 http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif.
