Chop Sockey, Your Favorite Bad Kung Fu Films in General
Ephesos Law Bringer Member # 4153	written Monday, July 10 2006 20:22 Profile Homepage #3 I've always meant to watch more bad kung-fu movies... but I can't help you here. Why the movie threads all of a sudden? We just need an über-colossal, gi-normous cinematographic smackdown of a super-thread! -------------------- Gamble with Gaea, and she eats your dice.

Feature Length Animation Films in General
Ephesos Law Bringer Member # 4153	written Monday, July 10 2006 20:19 Profile Homepage #20 quote: Originally written by wz. As: I really enjoy the South Park movie as well. Huzzah South Park! And I'll cast a vote for Waking Life, since it's technically animated... though South Park beats it in the non-philosophical realm of movies. Come to think of it, I recently caught something like the second half of Miyazaki's Spirited Away, and I was pleasantly surprised by how good it was. Given the general quality of anime that seems to reach the U.S. market, I was a bit leery about it. -------------------- Gamble with Gaea, and she eats your dice. I hate undead.

Civil Unions disallowed in ACT in General
Ephesos Law Bringer Member # 4153	written Monday, July 10 2006 09:32 Profile Homepage #209 quote: Originally written by Paul the second: Im very new to this forum and got bored so i looked at lots of topics on the forum and decide to respond to this one. Dont kill me after this post im reporting facts. Welcome to Spiderweb! Leave your sanity at the door! After all- quote: One reason homo marriage is bad and wrong. IS that it destroys normal marriages and makes children insecure. It has been proven that for a child to grow up healthy they nead a mother and father. -Okay, it appears that you've already left your sanity at the door. Cite your sources, good sir. Without any sort of proof on your part, this just comes across as unfounded paranoia. quote: Second it would destroy us economicaly. Think about it 2 million more people married with all the benefits. Plus if homo are allowed to marry that 2 million will grow exponetionally as more people thinks its okay resulting more marriages and more strain on economics. ( I'm not a good speller sorry) Okay, any world economy has bigger problems than keeping up with marriage benefits. Think of all the legal costs that get fed into the economy from divorce cases... that should support the cause of allowing gay marriage benefits. Then there'd inevitably be more divorce cases, more legal fees, and a stronger economy. And think of what it would do for the wedding industry... Your argument's falling flat so far... quote: Third divorce rates would sky rocket resulting in mass confusion as whos married to who? You're kidding. Please tell me you're kidding. Divorce rates are so high already (at least in the U.S.) that gay divorces would be a single drop in the bucket. As for the second point... whatever induced that logic is probably prohibited by law in most countries. quote: Fourth things like sex with animal would come up sooner or later which people should know results in diseases. This already happens. Allowing gay marriage would not affect this. Sure, people might end up being more vocal about the stuff they already did, but seeing same-sex couples get married certainly isn't going to make anybody swoon for a penguin anytime soon.

Alorael in General
Ephesos Law Bringer Member # 4153	written Saturday, July 8 2006 20:09 Profile Homepage #50 quote: Originally written by Drow: I assumed Ed was a male on two premises: Firstly, I know no female name that is abbreviated as Ed (I guess there is one though?), secondly I have yet to see a female act in such a simultaneously moronic and nervewracking way as Ed did. Not to discriminate against genders; girls can be an absolute pain too, but somehow not on the same level. Well, Ed entered the boards as Commander Edward, then changing to E.D.F. (with a ridiculously-annoying gimmick to follow), then changing to simply '&'. I almost lumped those titles in with arghhhhhhhhh's... But anyway, there was no indication that Ed was female. Ever. Not in public, anyway. And Aran, I disagree on your second point... it's really a gift of that age group in general. But I will say that most guys I know would've taken the hint earlier... or stormed out angrily without coming back. -------------------- Gamble with Gaea, and she eats your dice. I hate undead.

What do you think of A4 in Avernum 4
Ephesos Law Bringer Member # 4153	written Saturday, July 8 2006 19:35 Profile Homepage #39 quote: Originally written by Klintor Tazzankah: In my humble opinion, A4 is the borest plot in comparihson to the others Avernums. A3 has the most addictive storyline, and the plagues that torment the surface are well balanced, well placed and very, very tied up for the purposes of the manace. I fear that I must respectfully disagree... at least in terms of A3's addictive nature. The plagues get tiring, and it's way too easy to get discouraged. That, and finding out that the vahnatai did it was a real downer... it all works out too neatly. The only thing close to a loose end was Rentar's escape, and then you know from the start that she's coming back. As for your comment regarding Rentar, I agree. Except that in my game, she lived. -------------------- Thuryl: "Runescape: for people who are too stupid to save their games." Gamble with Gaea, and she eats your dice.

Died a few times very early in the game, that didn't happen to me in Avernum 3 until later in the game as the opponents got smarter and harder to kill. Yes, the item curve is way too steep in this game... by the end, every single item worn by all of my PCs was insanely magical. This never happened in the other four Avernums. (Well, to some degree in BoA... but I blame that on unbalanced item design by pretty much all of us.) -------------------- Thuryl: "Runescape: for people who are too stupid to save their games."
