    Also, the mention of Harehaunter reminded me of those dumb pokemon pictures I made for people. I should see if I have those saved – and see how many of the members featured are still around.

    Edit: I still have the slowbrowen picture you made of me as my steam icon.  :D

  2. The Speed is something that I have been trying to get my head around.  I do not have any facts or lengthy tests that I've done yet either.  The way that I have observed speed behave in the game reminds me of the "time gauge" from Final Fantasy VII.  The time gauge for all monsters and PC's fill a base rate of X and when full they get to act.  Speed just makes the time gauge fill at X + Speed bonus + Haste + Slow (or - Slow depending on the maths for it.)  I have taken to getting as much augment slot armor I can wear that is not - speed and filling it with speed runes. 

     

    In my observations of speed I have seen a PC act 3 times consecutively.  I have had 2 PC's take 9 consecutively actions between them as well.  In a boss fight my four PC's had 5 stacks of haste and +10 speed on chest, head, and neck armor.  Together the PC's had 15 attacks before the boss got to have its first attack.  The boss fight was

    the dragon that protects the Borgen(sp) clan.  I had 12 actions in the first part of the fight, 15 in the second part of the fight, and 15 in the third part of the fight.  Maybe the dragon is not a good measure for speed but it is where I started to feel like I was cheesing the game.

    An argument could be made that where one's thoughts go and how one respond's based on that says something meaningful. You can set up an implicit bias-like version of the test where the questions are flashed quickly and you have to give a response without putting time and conscious thought into it.

     

    I tried to do that just now by clicking on the answers as fast as I could and move on to the next question.  My results did change from the first time I took the test.

    I felt rather underwhelmed with the quality of many of the questions.

  5. I am pulling this quote from Jeff's blog, The Bottom Feeder, here. The second to last paragraph says the following.

     

    I've been shooting for early December, by my increasing old-person-exhaustion is making it hard to keep up the furious pace of younger days. The Mac and Windows versions will probably be out in January. iPad a few months after that. I don't know how to develop for Android and getting a good person to do a port is hard, so I'm not sure if that will ever happen.
