  1. No more films got made but Moonstone Books is publishing comics with new Buckaroo stories by the original creator.

    Also, the Oscillation Overthruster wasn't so much a vehicle but a device, like the Flux Capacitor. Instead of a DeLorean, the Overthruster was installed in a vehicle called the Jet Car. It allowed the Jet Car to pass through solid matter, and as it turns out, into the 8th dimension.
  2. Through a combination of trickery, deception, and a laser pointer, crazy has been successfully coaxed down into the kitchen. I now hear the crunching of cat food. Even if it's a temporary visit, it's progress.

    UPDATE: 12 hours later, crazy seems to have resumed making downstairs a part of his existence. He seems a bit reserved still, but that will probably fade. Also the CoH projector is being tucked away in the junk drawer for now. The part that still gets me is that right after this started, before we knew how bad it got him, I did the same thing to the other cat. She looked at the star, then looked at me. If she could talk, she probably would've said "Yeah, I see it, I care why?"
  3. As I think about it, I wonder if he actually knows what the star is and is afraid of having his crazy nerfed.
  4. A brief side note, or "What I learned because of Hero Con".

    One of the cats in the Frog/Floorman SG base is a crazy orange wrecking ball. He likes laser pointers. A LOT. Will follow one to the ends of the earth. Today I found the polar opposite of the dot in the CoH projector pen I got at Wentworth's this year. I projected the image on the floor in living room this morning, and crazy has not willingly come back downstairs since.

    The moral? Cats with a preference fear the Statesman star.
  5. I was always behind the curve. Got my Atari 2600 about the time the NES came out. Stayed a half-step behind until Xbox 360.

    Also saw something at work last night that made me pause. I'm sure you've all seen the Atari-style joysticks that plug straight into the TV and 10 games on them. Last night I saw a system styled like an old 2600 that comes with 40. Almost walked out with one this morning.

    Frog, you win!

    When trying to find the arc to play it this morning, I noticed the arc ID has been changed to 344869.
  7. Happy Birthday Plas!

    And Frog, you know we were going to win anyway.

    More like if we drink enough, we'll double everyone else's numbers. And everything in general, come to think of it...

    The word "minefield" was in there somewhere IIRC.

  11. Even though I don't play much and rarely group, it was great to get to meet people I had heard about from Frog. Since I restarted my sub, I may even run into some of you in-game sometime!
  12. When you upgrade to the full game it asks for a payment method for your subscription. The full game serial code comes with one free month, after that it costs US$14.99 per month to continue playing. If you choose credit card or paypal, it will automatically charge that account each month at the same time. If you don't want to be rebilled, use time cards or select a method, upgrade your account, and cancel it. You will still get to play the full month you got with the full game serial code.

    Exploding Lab Equipment Roulette has always been one of my favorite games. The buffs are helpful and the debuffs aren't so bad if you take care and pop CABs as necessary to counter the -recovery.

    A thread like this needs to kept where it can be seen.

    Ever since I started reading this thread, I can't get the idea of an SG called "The FREEM Team" out of my head.
  16. I know this was mentioned a page or two ago, but I just wanted to add another reminder/request about changing Wing colors in SG color window. I know the option existed once, please return the wing/back detail color option.
