The only thing I liked about Stalker, as a character, was his reaction to your killing Jaen. We never hear about Stalker though, ASR's interesting conflict is shown through the Hill Runners, not Stalker.

What doesn't make sense to me is that although Stalker got first place, Jaen wasn't even close to him. Jaen and Stalker are exactly the same, except that Jaen fights for the Empire and Stalker fights for the Hill Runners. Both had similar motives and tactics, and both believed that the ends justified the means.

I think the reason that most of us think Stalker is interesting, is that, because we hardly ever see Stalker, we fill in the gaps in his character ourselves. The setting is what makes Stalker interesting.

I finally made a website to host my graphics and eventually scenarios. Enjoy.

And a note to Thuryl: I have made progress on the graphic. I'll make sure to finish it this weekend, sorry for the long wait. I had a lot of school work over the past month.

I can't believe Stalker won with absolutely no character development.

Men are subject to this too. Insecurity sells. But, to be honest, at least here in America, I think a lot of us could stand to lose a few pounds.

EDIT:
A woman walks into a studio, sits down, a bunch of lights flicker on over her face, and her wrinkles, blemishes, etc. are slowly removed by makeup. Eventually she has so much make up on she looks like an oil painting. After some pictures are taken, they're opened up in photoshop and distorted to make the woman look like an anime character sprung to life. The picture is then placed on a billboard, advertising makeup.

Let's not forget how many knights were killed by tripping and falling facefirst into seemingly innocent puddles of water. Armor was pretty damn heavy.

Similar to the other weapons skills. Also, blessing any type of warrior will make him twice as effective in combat. (Blessing is cumulative, at least in Exile).

Archery is good for taking out spellcasters (pesky in long battles) and weak-armored units. Giving your character skill in poison and then poisoning your arrows works well too.

Without a lot of backstory, I think Maynard and Vakhos are both the best developed characters in BoA. Although DWTD doesn't strike me as a great scenario, it has interesting NPCs.

Why Nintendo, why? Why did you delay the GC version of the new Zelda game again? Again! The 3rd time you've done so. The other two times you used the excuse that it wasn't ready yet. Not true this time, as the port to the Wii comes first! The port dammit! I hate you nintendo, may all your controller cords tangle and all yor precious wii version zeldas blow to bits!
Nintendo doesn't care about you, which is how they sell their games.

Don't expect a Starcraft 2. The money today is in MMORPGs, and once WoW runs dry, they'll make World of Starcraft. It's already been proven that people will pay money to play games they've already bought.

Like a works cited for a research (or other) paper, just be sure to credit the artist or author, etc. in your scenario, usually by Read Me.

I would like to point out that building a realistic looking figure or setting, pixel by pixel, in 256 bmp format, is not as simple as it sounds. If you post your graphic requests I could take a look at what I have, or maybe make some for you.

Usually an unknown command due to variables means that you didn't specify variables at the beginning of the script. You might want to check, just to make sure.

Example:
Begintownscript;

variables;
short one,two,three,four;

body;

etc...

New question. Suppose I want a cutscene to trigger after a GROUP of enemies is dead, what variable could I use?

And does num_killed_in_town(which_town) even work?

Here is a website with an opposing argument

Some people in Europe are worried that Turkish citizens will move to their countries and take their jobs (Consider the popular American view point concerning Mexico). Others are worried that the cultures wont mix (About 99.8% of the people in Turkey are Muslim.) Others don't like how America (specifically Bush) is pushing the EU to accept Turkey. Turkey has a population of about 70 million people, and if admitted to the EU, will have one of the largest influences in the European parliament as well as 10 votes to cast (The maximum amount.) If admitted to the EU, Turkey will only be behind Germany in population, and will quickly (in a decade or two) surpass them, becoming the largest nation in the EU. I'm pretty sure Turkey also maintains a healthy relationship with the US (Please correct me on this if I'm wrong.) You can understand why countries like France are afraid of an unfamiliar, pro-US nation quickly becoming the most powerful nation in the EU.

Personally, I think a lot of this is BS. Turkey is a relatively young country with a growing population, and the EU needs them. The pop. growth rate in the EU is becoming a problem, eventually there wont be enough young adults to support the older members of society. However Turkey, with its healthy growing population, can help shoulder this responsability and, well what do you know, take the jobs that most people don't want to do anyway. I think most resistance to Turkey comes from the common fear of change. Like in America, people are worried that the influx of foreign citizens will take over the country. But like in America, lets say with the Irish, immigrants have always only integrated with and added their benefits to society. With the EU's help, Turkey can quickly become one of the most powerful nations in the world, and with Turkey's help, the EU can support itself for a long time.

EDIT: Was thinking of US and wrote UN for one of the EUs...
