Re: Dane Cook is an Offensively Unfunny Douchebag
This place is going to have more dickwaving moderators than users soon. My dick also functions as a banhammer. Want a demonstration? You know what, actually, go ahead and ban me mister Internet Badass. This place is a festering corpse anymore compared to back when anyone gave a shit. I'll spend one...

Re: Star Wars: The Old Republic (The Thread)
Subscriptions are down to something over 500k but under a million. Yeah that's how they described it. I guess someone from Goldman-Sachs called bullshit at that point and got hung up on. It seems obvious now that F2P was the only alternative to shutdown.
Stick a fork in it, this game is dead.

Re: Avengers Force Sub JEDI
Shields don't stop the force. Someone mashes up the tesseract machine with telekinesis and the portal closes before most of the bullshit comes through. With the situation less dire, the creepy council never launches the nuke.

Re: Panzer Pets Robot MMO on Kickstarter
Yep, a large part of the back-end came from previous projects and has actually been tested with a few 100k users playing on it for a year. We developed and then operated an MMO/virtual world called Club Galactik, and we developed Hero World (Guitar Hero MMO) for about 6 months until Activision shut...

Re: Panzer Pets Robot MMO on Kickstarter
Has this team ever successfully released a game before? Because an MMO is an order of magnitude more difficult than an ordinary game, and indie devs going for an MMO as their first project is pretty much a red flag for vaporware.

Re: Star Wars games today.
My first playthrough of KOTOR, as a complete dark side prick, was totally Star Warsy. In a "Bwahaha I wanna be Palpatine!" sorta way. My contempt for that sanctimonious Jedi council, my disgust at their weakness given the way they were letting the civilian population of their very own encl...

Re: Ancient Romans in South America?
Europe was building boats/ships of one sort or another for what, a couple thousand years before officially discovering the Americas? And in all that time, how many were blown out to sea? Shit like this probably happened all the time, relatively speaking. If once or twice a century, or every few cent...

Once something like this is put into service, having someone you don't like get their hands on one is an eventual certainty. So... meh, whatever. At least it took over a decade.

Without them the title would be hopelessly fragmented while a series of bums passed belts around at random. But they don't captur...

God I hope a good heavyweight boxer comes out of these Olympics. A monster, a terror, a legend in the making. Someone like a young Tyson who just comes in and makes it clear that he's the Man of Destiny and everyone else had better get the fuck out of his way. Doesn't even have to be American. He ju...

Re: Race and Empire
The people making the sorts of decisions that matter to a discussion like this would have to think in terms of people before they could think in terms of race, and I'm pretty sure all they see are opportunities to be exploited. That and money. It's the same as the old routine about alcoholic beverag...

Re: Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality
Well, the trial scene nicely showed off everything badass and pathetic about Methods Harry all at once. On the plus side, he got what he wanted, and has intimidated/impressed the Wizengamot. On the downside, he's now so deeply in debt to Lucius Malfoy that he may as well have 'bitch' tattooed on hi...

Re: Alien Nation (TV and Movies)
Same reason that Fyrefly got the Serenity movie. Fan demand. Except unlike Serenity, they kept the movies to TV show level budgets (or TV movie budgets), and the TV ratings for them warranted the sequels. I'm really surprised they didn't go this route with Firefly. I mean god Syfy can crank out a h...

Yeah, I kinda like that about the story. It's not about Harry finding the secret scientific underpinnings to magic that wizards were all too dumb to notice. It's about him taking a system that doesn't have any meaningful scientific underpinnings as we understand them and analyzing it rationally anyw...

I watched the clip. Surprisingly, Billo doesn't sound sarcastic. Good for him, I guess. He does have a habit of being a douchebag 99% of the time (though merely a douchebag, not a total psycho) then randomly saying something sensible that you would never attribute to him. Also, this thread needs mor...

This really is a very good fic in all ways except for the one aforementioned glaring flaw.

He's intelligent but not necessarily wi...
