ahem I mean yeah, manshoots. Who wants to play Call of Duty or Halo? Add me on ecksbox.
@John It's okay. Actually, I have no gender. You can use whatever pronoun you want! ...Or at least that's what I would say if I could keep that sort of thing up for any decent period of time but I'm a guy.
It's like when Uplink put a bank in front of me and I realized I could hack it to get so much more money. I screwed up because I didn't quite get how the game worked quite yet a few times and had to restart the whole thing but it was so worth it in the end.
I didn't even realize the game had changed. But I'm now realizing that what I thought were tons of new buildings were actually quite a few existing buildings being renamed.
Still, I like the idea that your available buildings change each time. Makes it less about having everything figured out ahead of time, and more about dealing with whatever you end up with.
@Grace Is there any benefit to beating Recettear on the first loop? I got to the very last pay day, but couldn't meet it. I'm wondering if I should back up a bit and try again, or just continue on with loop 2.
The answer is "Banner on the main site only goes up for 48 hours. Recommended not to reinstate it but you could convince badp or Juan to. The Meta site is the only place it extends the whole duration."
As Die2Nite is originally a French game called Hordes, the English version was released a while after the French version. The result of this is that those of us who play the English version often get updates pushed to the servers months after the French receive them.
I'm interested in knowing wh...
In World of Warcraft, I've reached the "Honored" level of reputation with Honor Hold. I decided to check online what kind of gear I should be able to buy because of that and I've noticed that some of the gear listed here doesn't even appear in the list of things I can buy from the logistics offic...
Speaking of speculation, since we're in the chat Speculation Zone, when should I be expecting to tell my clients that I'm unavailable for a couple weeks?
I suspect you'll be able to give them a better answer after Blizzcon.
@Lazers I hope he shows up to respond to my request for clarification. I'm pretty sure I know the answer to his question, but until he tells me he's playing a Paladin or DK, I don't want to post it as an answer.
(and really, most likely, until he tells me he's playing a Death Knight.)
I ditched cable a long time ago and have been making do with Netflix, Hulu, and iTunes for my television needs. The displays on the new iMacs these days are big enough and high enough quality that I think they should be perfectly adequate for my gaming purposes, too. I will be upgrading to one of...
When grinding away in a dungeon as Louie in Recettear, I noticed that I have these weird icons next to my character picture:
But...I don't really get them. What are they supposed to indicate, and what sort of different icons are there in the game?
So, I've just picked up D2 again to play with a friend, and we both have been giving that jovial fellow Gheed the majority (read: all) of our money for the chance of decent items. What is the chance of getting rare/set/unique items from the various gambling merchants throughout the acts?
In my first playthrough of Recettear, I've got a bunch of great items to sell, like Parade Armor and Parade Helmets...and a bunch of customers who are too cheap to afford them. Any time I try to sell an item for over 3000 gold, it fails miserably. I've tried selling expensive items at even 70% of...
While I was aware of the Inverse Ninja Law reducing the base HP of Akali / Kennen / Shen when present on the same team, I have recently discovered that they are not the only such champions to have a "Secret Passive".
Nidalee, Cougar that she is, grants younger men lower level champions 5 bonus X...
Caillou is looking for Charred Lizard, Bat Wings, and Slime Liver. I've never seen any of these items for sale or dropped by monsters. Where do I get them?
Caillou put in his order for Charred Lizard, Bat Wings and Slime Liver. My Advance Order Summary shows no deadline for this order, so I assumed I had as much time as I needed to find this stuff. Then he came into the store and complained that I hadn't gotten the items yet.
Does it hurt me in any...

I have Gun Bros on my Android device (Nexus S), and my pal is playing it on the iPhone, I followed the ingame instructions to add a friend to the brotherhood, but it doesn't work :-/
Is it even possible to add friends from other platforms to your brotherhood? If so, how would I go about adding o...

I still don't understand what the appeal is in running. It's... inefficient! I could be biking and covering much larger distances with much less effort.
...and covering much larger distances makes the experience more rewarding, personally.
I'm experiencing a serious issue with AWE: the game is fun, it works well, then for some reason the game doesn't close cleanly and I lose ALL progress I ever made in the game.
When this happened after unlocking the 3rd mission, I didn't mind it too much, but this time I lost the entire first cha...
There's two general approaches to how one starts a Tag Wiki Excerpt.

I was wondering if anyone else out there is having problems with the WoW installer, I recently signed up for an account so I could take advantage of this play the first 20 levels for free promotion.
I've registered fine but I now have the downloader client up and it just doesn't seem to want to ...
Oh man, that was almost so cool if it was at all planned
I just slid into a room (due to an earlier slick track), turned to the side and shot one enemy to my right with two arrows for the kill shot, then triggered a tuna trap while shooting a ghost that decloaked behind me, stunning it long enough for the tuna to kill it while I continued to slide between the other two tuna to go around me.
...and I only just now remembered that this is really not a stage sequence I wanted to replay with Tielle.

I was scrolling through a question I answered, and I couldn't find my answer. Then I realized I was looking for an answer with my old avatar, not my new one.
Just thought I'd share, since I'm sure you're all interested.
"A Japanese RPG released by EasyGameStation in 2007 which received greater Western visibility when Carpe Fulgur localized it in 2010. Your goal is to pay back a debt that your father accrued via running a shop which sells to your typical RPG adventurer. Capitalism, ho! " <-how's that sound?
