I'm pretty sure you do get executed for canister use if you just leave at your earliest opportunity without doing anything, though. (If you didn't use canisters, you get sent off to war and die there, so that isn't much better).

To get the "real" unaligned ending, I believe you have to kill at least the Taker and Barzite leaders. (You may as well scour the whole damned map clear of all life, just to be safe. I know for a fact that doing so gets you the best ending.) Your canister usage has an effect on the unaligned ending, but not a huge one.
I cannot believe you tried that, seriously. GF2 was the only game which I thought I had gone through all the different endings; however, I don't think I've ever just left without doing anything :rolleyes: .

I mostly stay with the same agent name, since it's the name of someone very special to me. I once named it my own name, but it felt weird. For some reason I name the Shaper "Alex", it may have something to do with the name being completely un-shaperish or it might have to do with me knowing tons of Alex, who knows?. I've def used other names, but I've forgotten.
And I never play with guardians, I tried once and named it Shax cuz I thought it sounded like a tough name or something. I'm sure I've used other names, but I can't remember.

The difference with 9-11 is that it was premeditated.
I’ve heard people bring this up thousands of times. 9-11 was truly catastrophic, but by no means was it the only premeditated attack in the world. The United States has a really good history in getting involves in battles that are not its own despite knowing how it would affect people. I can recall the United States sending troops to Dominican Republic just because they didn’t agree with the new government, whom I should add was not communist nor terrorist. We have to admit that the United States is not the saint portrayed in 9/11, not that I’m expecting a country as influential as the US to be so.
The US has been responsible for killing thousands of innocent lives, possibly not with the intentions of Saddam Hussein, but definitely premeditated. So perhaps we should try to care a little bit less when it comes to us, and start caring a little bit more when it is happening to someone else.
I do understand how horrific 9/11 was, and I do understand how it mattered to us because we were close to it. We all have to admit that if it had happened in the Middle East and not in the US; Americans wouldn’t have cared nearly as much. My mom happened to live 45 min away from the twin towers, my uncle 30 min away, and my other uncle happened to work a couple of blocks away, and I do know people whose friends and relatives died in the twin towers. So I can relate about how it feels. It was scary and horrible to imagine that something could’ve happened to my family, especially with their obsession of doing shopping in downtown. However, I still care about all the people dying in Iraq at this moment.
Now, during my freshman year in college I heard a classmate talk about how we should drop a nuclear bomb in the Middle East and get rid of all of them. It took a lot of willpower for me not to stand up my sit and slap him. As a matter of fact, I had to leave the classroom in order not to do so. I can’t believe how someone could be so inconsiderate to not care about thousands of people dying just because there are from a different nationality.

There is no need to clarify it; clearly he just doesn't like it. Everyone has the right to like/hate whatever they want. Anyways, I'll jump in Alo and Kel's bandwagon and say that I am a metal fan as well. I'm no groupie, but I certainly like it.
On a completely different note, Kel sweetie, could you stop the face palming? I don't like you hurting yourself.

The Wizards/Bullets are my favorite team, but my local team, the Nets, are looking better right now.

I'd say college basketball is much more fun to watch than the NBA. Players actually play defense, the games actually mean something, and so much heart and grit is on display. Plus, you see more systems. Four-guard sets and ridiculous zones and presses are not unusual anymore, whereas in the NBA only a handful of coaches would dare to play a zone.
The Nets rock, talk about the shame of having the Knicks as your local team. College basketball, as every other type of basketball, is pretty cool when you are at the game and not just at home watching it on the TV.
I like the MBL better, and if I really like the team or strongly hate it then I can watch the entire game on TV. Otherwise, I just skip it until the finals

Actually no, I can't speak Italian. I can understand it fairly well and read it correctly, same with Portuguese, but I have a hard time coming up with sentences. Although I should say that am better at Italian than Portuguese.

Anyways, I'm fluent in Spanish, and I defend myself pretty well in English.

The N-word is used so much in NY that it's hardly considered an insult anymore. I've seen several Caucasians and even Hispanics calling one another by the N-word. It's like the new "yo". However, even when it is not meant as such, it is still an insult.

Diki: I'd say that in order to be a good imitation, you should say the things that the person "WOULD" say, rather than things they have already said. This is why my imitation of Ephesos sucked.

FYI, I highly resent (I say that a lot) this:

You left out one problem. How long would it take to recharge a car battery? Filling a gas tank takes about a minute depending on how big the tank is. Recharging batteries takes a long time.
I left it out because it's not actually a problem, except on really long road trips. Cars could be recharged overnight after a day's worth of driving and be ready to go the next morning. If the battery can hold a day's worth of driving, taking eight hours to recharge is not a problem.
I agree almost entirely with your previous post, except for this. I see a problem with taking eight hours to recharge. Even if the battery could hold a day's worth of driving, the main reason why the gas stations aren't flooded with people is the fact that you could go at any time during the day. I remember the day of the black out in NY where you could only get oil from certain gas stations; it was nearly impossible to get gas. If it would take every car 8 hours to re-charge the batteries, then it would be impossible for every car to get charged overnight, which is when more people would be able to get their batteries charged. Unless you are talking about the car owners owning battery chargers as well, but wouldn't that cost a great deal of money? On top of the $40,000 you are paying for the car. It sounds awesome in theory, but knowing humans it’s highly unlikely to ever happen.

You're always so helpful *sigh*
I honestly believe, as a very smart person once told me, that a male must have one extra passion. Could be cars, could be fishing, could be hunting, could be sex, could be clothes, could be animals, etc.
If that's what you want or how you feel, then you shouldn't care about what anyone thinks, as several people have pointed out. I've seen people whose best friend is his/her animal, which I wouldn’t personally recommend, but I can understand. Now if you're talking about other types of emotional relationships then well good luck, and I'm not sure I could give you a real answer without being rude.

I hate myself for doing this.

SoT: I believe that you are referring to Gaunilo and not Kant when you mention the $100 bill example. I could be wrong though. Gaunilo was the one who used the "Lost Island" as an example, which agrees with your point.

On the other hand, I found Anselm interesting, and I like his idea of "The greatest conceivable being." If God is not the greatest, than something else is the greatest which would make that God and the argument just continues infinitely. However, I do not believe that is sufficient proof for God's existence, and his reply to Guanilo was rather weak which is why I will restraint myself from defending him.

I'm not sure if there are any stereotypes about me. Although, I do know some stereotypes about other people. Even though it's hard to believe Kelandon is highly perverted even more so than our own Slartucker. Alorael is actually a teenager, and Croikle is not 14! The Silent Assassin is actually Lenar's younger brother, and infernal is a girl named after a Geneforge's agent. Sarachim is one of the funniest person on the boards, and Imban is always on Aim, which is a big deal coming from me.
