Tyranicus

Artemis deals more damage than Drizzt. His sword can kill with 1 strike if it hit the little elf and cause him to wither away. However Drizzt could just evade it.

what.

I direct you to where I got most of my information, this fantastic podcast series

I can confirm this issue with Safari 7.0.1 on OS X 10.9.1. It's with the Sylo theme only and on the individual forum index pages only. The issue does not occur in Firefox 26.0 or Chrome 31.0 on the same system.

If every issue were put to a national vote, the government would get even less done than it does now.

What Jerakeen said.

Is that the original Nethergate or Nethergate: Resurrection? The original Nethergate was never made for OS X and will not run on any Intel Mac.

Note that this only applies to the original Nethergate.

A1 is awfully, awfully clunky, though, and it doesn't even have a quest log.

I can't fix the clunkiness, but I have a fix for the lack of quest log.

Hard drive access shouldn't be very CPU-intensive.

Pearlblossom seems to be an...abandoned(?)...unfinished(?)...forgotten(?) element of the game, or else included purely for flavor. You can't do anything for her.

Oh, Harry Turtledove.

 

Did he cover how the changes might play out over the next century? Surely it would have ramifications for the world wars, the development of Latin America (without so much interference by the CIA), and the rise (and fall?) of communism.

He did. He wrote a series of books that ended with the end of World War II. In this series, the South freed the slaves in the late 19th century, but African Americans were still second-class citizens who couldn't vote.

When WWI came around the South sided with the Allies, having close ties to England and Franc, and the North sided with the Central Powers. Neither side sent troops to Europe, and instead fought a long bloody trench war in North America. During the war, African Americans in the South rose up in a socialist revolution. The were eventually crushed, but this hurt the Confederate war effort. The North fought a two-front war, holding the South at bay while they invaded Canada and successfully wrested it from British control.

Eventually, the Central Powers won the war, and the Allied nations were forced to pay heavy reparations to the victors. This weakened the already strained Confederate economy and caused drastic inflation. By the time the stock market crash of 1929 came around, the South was in really bad shape. From this chaos, the fascist Nazi-analogous Freedom party rose to power, and similar fascist regimes took control of France and England. The Confederates started locking away African Americans in concentration camps and eventually started murdering them.

Tensions increased between the two nations, and, eventually, the South invaded the North. The US fought a losing battle for a while but was able to turn the tide and utterly defeat the South, but not before both sides set off atomic bombs. The series ends with the North completely subjugating the South post-WWII.

I could make a joke about going black and never going back, but there are several members, myself included, for whom that does not always hold true.

2. Nethergate (What Tyranicus always answers to best Spiderweb game)

That's not a meme. That's just the truth.

Congratulations!

I could play without necessarily being online or having to logon to Steam in case Steam's servers were offline.

In the unlikely event that Steam's servers go offline, you can start Steam in offline mode.

A Lego Executor would be awesome to get, but I'm pretty sure no real people spend that much money on Legos.

I guess I'm not a real person then.

In my defense, I didn't know that you had to look for cupcakes that are explicitly marked as vegetarian now. :-(

 

Edit: The college cafeteria actually had pancakes (the sweet kind) labeled as vegetarian today. That was mildly creepy.

No.

Personally, I'm a fan of "Always Look on the Bright Side of Life."

Well I am wrong in current state, and I'm not sure about a past state of Steam that stuck with my memory.

Reason I say that is I know I played S.T.A.L.K.E.R. a lot more than 61 minutes Finished that and I am pretty sure it cannot be finished in 61 minutes.

There may have been some glitch that caused it not to accurately record when you played the game, or you may have played in offline mode. Steam does not track play time in offline mode. Steam has definitely tracked playtime across multiple computers for a very long time if not since the beginning.

I think Steam's Time played counter resets if a game is uninstalled {could be wrong on that}

You are wrong on that.

I'm so sorry.

Canada: Come for the crumpets, stay for the poutine.

I love poutine. My sister went to a university in New Brunswick, and going to the local diner for poutine was my favorite thing about going to visit her.

Congratulations, Nikki.

I have never seen crumpets in the US. I've also never seen them in the UK, but I never looked for them either. Why didn't you offer me crumpets when I visited, Nikki?
