Re: Morality of Chronological Tampering

If it's a whole separate timeline, I'm jumping through a time portal dressed as Batman (for lols) and punching Gavrilo Princip in the face just before he can shoot Franz Ferdinand. Am I allowed to bring things back? Because I'm also bringing back a tablet with a history ebook and other history textb...

Re: PC Not Booting Correctly After Windows Update

Yeah, that's what I ended up doing. I had a Windows 10 install on a flash drive from last year. The Windows 7 disk the parentals gave me was a 32 bit one, not 64. So I went for my Windows 10 one instead. I would have used my product key but I lost it. I wrote down the product ID by mistake. D'oh!

Thanks for the help. Looks like they do have a copy of Windows 7 Home Premium. Should have thought to ask that weeks ago.

PC Not Booting Correctly After Windows Update

Like the title said, my PC stopped booting properly after Windows updated. It'd get to the Windows logo and be stuck there. Gives me this error when I try to do a system restore: "The instruction at 0xfbf1584d referenced memory at 0x00000008. The memory could not be read." This is what I g...

Re: Mighty Morphing SDN Rangers (RAR)

Dang. For shits and giggles, I was going to try to get Cyber Sub-Zero, have him sign up for an SDN account, and join as Blue Ranger just because it'd be funny to make a cyborg Lin Kuei assassin go through high school. In that case, I stick with Marvin the Paranoid Android.

Re: Mighty Morphing SDN Rangers (RAR

Are we booted back in time to when the show started or is it the Power Rangers stuff with the storyline starting in 2016? Do cyborgs count as robots? If in 2016, what happens if the robot signs up for an SDN account?

Answering both Simon_Jester and madd0ctor: The Bastians had no real powers to speak of. They're faster, more agile, and have more acute senses than humans do, but are also physically weaker and a bit frailer. They also have retractable claws. That's it, really.

Yeah. And I'd probably make them one of the smaller factions. Change the hailstorm ability to using the snow around them to rain projectiles on their foes. Foolish to try set piece battles against them on their own turf. Hard to conquer but a bit limited in their offensive capabilities, especially a...

Re: Pre-industrial Fantasy STGOD Recruitment Thread.

I looked at the other thread. Seems they're set up on the western part of Canada. Edited before I saw your post. Greenland might be too remote and sparsely populated unless it's the homeland of those cryomancers and they set up elsewhere in Canada.

This is tempting but I'd likely drop out like I did with the Bastian Star Empire due to time constraints.

Link to rest of the article.

One theory is that the Brotherhood we see in this game is the Chicago chapter from Fallout Tactics. It's mostly the airships and insignia. Link to album.
