The Ratt

I think I would like to be eaten by a dragon. The only one eaten by a dragon. Why did the dragon eat that guy? Where did the dragon go?

Well,

 

For some reason the DNS provider for my college has decided that SW has too high of a likelyhood of giving my computer a virus and is blocking access. This has resulted in me not visiting the forums for about two or three weeks, and has made me realize that it is time for me to leave. I have been contributing less and less, and also felt that I don't have anything to add. Since being denied access has broken my habit of checking the forums several times a day I am going to take advantage of it and say goodbye. I may return when another game comes out (assuming I can gain access to the forums) but until then farewell.

I don't know what scenario you're referring to, but B and C are obviously the answers.

I didn't know Wesnoth had a giant rat monster, cool!

Tree-umph? Hmmm... maybe not.

You should provide a link to a template so we can make our own spiderweb memes.

I'd suggest starting with Java or C++ rather than Python or Perl, simply because it's easier to transition from a low level language to a high level language rather than the other way around.

Depths of Peril had an interesting balance of party vs. single. There were three classes, you could choose one for your main character, then you could recruit up to six randomly generated recruits. Only one could accompany you in the field, all the others stayed at your home base.

I'd go with A or B. I think C is too interesting and flashy, it could distract, make the playing field seem cluttered, and/or be hard on the eyes if you have to look at it for a while (like this). Also have you considered putting a black border around the edges of all of the cards?

I think many of the issues in America could be resolved if the American mentality was changed. Using the metaphor of climbing a slippery slope, the stereotypical American is focused on individually getting to the top, and it is possible because a few smart, talented, or lucky people got there, but, with everyone taking that mentality, the situation just ends up with everyone pulling each other down and climbing over each other. It would be great if we could change the mentality to helping each other up, so everyone benefits; if you slip someone will catch your hand, assuming that you would do the same thing. Basically people acting for the benefit of the collective whole, rather than themselves with the expectation that as the whole improves, they will be pulled up along with it.

 

I understand that even if we did have this attitude of helping each other we would still have problems with deciding what is the best way to solve the problems of the collective whole, but, perhaps, politicians would be more willing to consider the thoughts of the other side instead of just condemning opposing thoughts.

 

Other thoughts. The media sucks, from FOX news to NBC, all they care about is profits, viewers, and ratings, which means stories that will inflame or captivate the most number of people are shown and exaggerated, while other stories with comparative impact are pushed to the side because they might not be agreeable (particularly race related stuff).

Congrats on the 2000 posts! Your topic is quite original.

For me, number 1 seems most like traditional card backs. Though if you are going for that, I would make the stars more organized.

o.O Wow, only in Michigan.

It's been a day or two, since it happened; They're probably fine. Maybe the mods were in a bad mood that day?

Well after a two week hiatus, I'm now restarting Week 2 column 3. For day 1, I managed all the sets except the max, which I only did 10 out of 15.

I found that the 3D in Avatar really helped inspire awe in the scenery scenes; it really showed the scale of the geography.

I really like all of those. The only additional names I can think of is Ratt-ata, or Ratticate, but those are rather obvious.

I have fallen behind. Last week it was pure laziness, this week because I'm actually doing other exercise, like running a 5k after not running for two months.

I feel the same way; I'm under the impression that I'm not going to make an appearance in Diki's latest episode at all. As far as developing a presence, it doesn't help that I tend to back out of the serious discussion threads; I'm still in school, so if I want to do political (or other topic) reading I'd do my homework.

Wait, now we need to ask to get custom titles? What is that line supposed to mean?

This is enjoyable stuff. Thanks diki!

You might try doing endurance exercises, like planks, bicycle, leg lifts, etc.

So did the exhaustion test today, and managed 27 pushups, but I'm a little worried that I won't be able to keep up with column three. I think I'll take two days off (i was feeling fatigued as soon as I started today), and I might try adding in some extra protein after workouts.

supercalifragilisticantspellthislongword........,

I'm personally waiting a day before I do the exhaustion test.
