I find this fandom fascinating and all but when it starts to creep into the webcomics I read, I start looking for an axe.
If it exists, there is a pony of it. No exceptions. -

Looks like there's only two more volumes to Queen with volume 5 coming out in Feb.
K-On! Season 2 is probably never going to happen in R1. It depends on how the licensing contract reads. They may sublicense to some other company or it may revert to the Japanese holders. Regardless, it won't be put out by Bandai.
I went through my collection today and the list of stuff I need to finish buying is depressingly long. >.< -
Well, it's the 2nd now and still no PP for me. Despite my billing date being the first of the month. Wonder if they are going to use the Winter Event as the reason for the points not being there?
Edit - And didn't even realize it, but my VIP sub came due yesterday as well. They were more than able to charge me for that, unsurprisingly. -
Quote:You mean that they were still trying to release single volumes when everyone else was moving to half-series or series releases? Yup. The days of being able to charge $20-30 for 3-5 episodes are done with.Originally Posted by _Shadowstone_
bandai-entertainment to stop releasing new dvds, bds, manga.
I figured this would happen, and it did, sadly. Their method of releasing series is basically what did them in. I was was worried when I heard they picked up the license for Gosick, now I'm sad.....Hopefully some companies will pick up the cancelled releases.
I've only got a few Bandai series (that I'm interested in) to finish...Haruhi-Chan, Digi Charat Nyo, Galaxy Angel, K-On!, Code Geass S2, etc. Not very many though.
Sidebar, how does this affect Code Geass: Queen? That's a fairly funny manga. -
Quote:While production has ended, it's not really "gone". It's in repeats on Cooking Channel. That channel is also showing the Japanese Iron Chef episodes too. Fourteen seasons and 249 episodes is a heckuva run for anything.Originally Posted by Frost Warden
That is a royal gift; the yeast sock puppets alone make it an awesome gift. Alton Brown was always my favorite show; sad to see it gone.

Eh, Macintosh strikes me as more of a Tanker than a Brute. Solid as a wall, doesn't hurt anybody unless he's under the effects of a spell.
Super Strength for your offensive powerset either way.

Don't know whose DVRs you have in your area Redbone but around where I live the two cable companies in my area, Cox and Comcast, use a Motorola DVR that isn't extendable or have the capability to export recorded programs. Well the box itself may have those features but both cable companies have those features disabled. Can't even get a down-sampled analog signal out to feed into a VCR, HDMI out only.

Quote:I think I may have gotten that token at the same time as well. Not sure though.Originally Posted by Grouchybeast
The token you got on the 23rd was (most likely) the token that's awarded for making your first Paragon Points purchase of any amount of points, and nothing to do with your VIP subscription token.
As to when the token might show up, I'm afraid I can't help. You can ask customer services about it, but to be honest they seemed to be as confused as the rest of us.
I do know that it's now the first and still no Paragon Points, despite my billing date being the first.
I personally do not hold any illusions that this will ever be fixed or at the very least consistent. I asked Ghost Falcon in another thread about it and this was his response (dated: 12/13/11):

Quote:You are forever a Scootaloo. (One 'o' or two in the beginning? One sounds like "Scott" to me, rather than "Scoot".)Originally Posted by Kioshi
Today I leveled my new TW/Invul Brute named Scotaloo to 22 on Virtue.
I got the following tells in 4 hours:
1 - 'SCOTALOOO- SCOOT-SCOOTALOOOOOO!' (a scene that can be seen at 15:05 here)
2 - 'Hey Brony *brohoof*'
3, 4, 5 (yes, thrice) - 'Hey you a brony too?' -
Quote:Not necessarily. Some DVRs have functionality to add more storage with USB devices. You could, in theory, DVR everything and store it.Originally Posted by Coin
Also, on topic, arguably VCR's could be more classed as a form of piracy as it's a physical medium for it to be kept on, DVR's by their nature are transient and intangible formats that will eventually run out of space.

Quote:I do like the sutra chants. They are very...almost hypnotic. Though I also do find Gregorian chant calming as well.Originally Posted by Father Xmas
Amaenaide yo!! and it's sequel Amaenaide yo!! Katsu!! are silly harem series. I watched them a few years back when a friend loaned me his digisubs (he's more of the harem/magical girl/psycho lolli fanboy than I am).
They really nothing to write home about.
The thing that I guess bothers me about the show, is that they do the fanservice, but not actually show anything. They go to great lengths to get Ikkou in the situations, but then it's almost like Dark Helmet saying, "Fooled you!".
I do like the setup though, that the girls are representatives of the six realms and it kinda shows in their mannerisms. I'm guessing that Ikkou is supposed to be the conduit for the power or Buddha, if going by the show's title. -
Quote:Holy cow! Spike is 49.Originally Posted by Father Xmas
Well his role was limited to recruiter/leader. He claims to have no powers himself but he does wield the power of PSYCHOLOGY quite well.
It was odd to see him cast as a man with a grown son. I can't imagine him as "old".
Edit: Crap, just looked him up on IMDB, he's my age.
That's just...wow. -

Guys, for next year, would you PLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAASE reduce Toy Collector to 100 (or even 50!) Presents? 200 is simply not fun. It's a pointless and excessive grind that takes any fun out of getting them. Even 50 with the ridiculous lopsided Naughty->Nice ratio would still allow a person to get Cold Warrior.

Quote:The trick in that case FX, is to get yourself a cheap steel ring (or make one, if you have the capability) to imitate a wedding ring. Make sure that it's prominently visible if/when the mothers give you that look. You can make it seem like you are picking something out for your kid.Originally Posted by Father Xmas
Quite the opposite Hyper, it's my greatest fear that I will be labeled as that creepy old guy who tries to flirt with much younger women.
It's bad enough that most mothers stare at me and grab their kids when I go into the children's section of the library. You see my library segregates the DVDs you can borrow into Adult, Teen and Children and the Children's section includes every CGI animated film made in the last 15 plus years including all the Pixar ones.
The Teen section is tiny and besides including the Twilight movies also includes the Narnia movies, the Harry Potter movies, Scott Pilgrim, Juno, The Sorcerers Apprentice and oddly Top Secret!.

I don't have any problem making "good natured" friends after civilization goes to heck. But if any part of it ever becomes as cheesy and poorly scripted as ID4 I might just put a bullet in my own head at that point. I'd take a Dixon with his "I have only one crossbow bolt yet I can keep reusing it to kill zombies and hunt squirrels without getting sick from it" magic any day.
And ID4 was the most important thing for a movie...FUN. Cheesy and full of plot holes? Ya, not doubt. But it was an enjoyable movie. -
Quote:Except he's not really the "good natured" part. I was thinking more of Randy Quaid's character in ID4.Originally Posted by CrazyJerseyan
Yup, just look for a guy named Merle Dixon.
He'll square you away. -

Quote:Sorry, but in that first picciature with the Wonder Woman/Wonder Girl - not sure which one, you look about 15. I was, wait what? Someone that young is wanting/getting an Ultra Magnus item?Originally Posted by Lulipop
No offense taken at all.
I get the whole '' you look young thing '' a lot basically cause I do, am relatively short, and slow aging genes don't help the situation.
Thanks for the compliments lol maybe I'll make a toon in game called Ski Bunny and attempt a re-make of my grandma's shirt. I wonder if it'd work.

And while this story may have been overlooked because of the 2013 guesstimate, I think it's good for at least one new SyFy Saturday movie and a few mentions on Coast to Coast AM.
We'll all be turned into Incredible Hulks!
Though...would they really be all that "incredible" if everyone was a Hulk?
