Olivia Munn is a lady what I would do naked touch on. That is all.

I really need to shift away from supers for a little while. Marvel seems pretty devoid of quality these days, leaving DC to pick up all the slack. Fables has always been one of those things that I want to start at the beginning on, which is why I never start it at all.

Any chance you could update SuckerPunch's online planner to be I19+ compatible? It runs OK on my iPad.
I might be doing this myself .... -
No one got Fables #100?
For shame. -

I believe you're seeing the result of Titan's regular backup process, and/or cleanup to prevent the server from freaking out about the backup (which it has done before). It was down for me as well, but it's back up just as fast.

What is BSF? Barracuda?

I have a dark sense of humor sometimes, so Vols. 1-4 made me laugh more than depressed

Happy Birthday, Viv!

Oh, I am sure
Also, the fights in the movie are a lot better than in the book. Again, probably do to the more dynamic possibilities live-action allows for me. -

As I've said elsewhere, will my nerd card get revoked if I say after reading up to Vol. 4 of Scott Pilgrim and Vol. 1 of The Walking Dead if I liked their adaptations way more than their sources?
The Scott Pilgrim movie is a lot of fun and good adaptation, but I like the fleshing out of the characters way more in the comics because well, they actually get fleshed out. -
I think what I like the most is that I'm able to run my shield toggles on lowbie melee characters now. Pre-Stamina it was really difficult to maintain my toggles while keeping up an attack chain without having to rest every fight. It's definitely increased my enjoyment of the lower level game, and considering the severity of my altitis, this is a good, good thing.

Hamster really just wants Nipple Beams.

Well, to be fair, (re: Rick panicking) on one hand I agree completely; on the other, it was his push to come here, his hopes were apparently high, then when he gets there, the door is not only closed, but someone is apparently inside actively watching them. Might send a lawman (who is probably somewhat accustomed to being able to command a modicum of acquiescence) a little batspit.
Except comic-Rick wouldn't have led them back into the heart of the city again, at twilight, risking certain doom if he's wrong and the CDC isn't in fact a safe place. The whole thing was just so out of character, and when you're doing an adaptation, I think the most important thing to carry between mediums are the characters. -

BAB, you are greatly missed.

Quote:I wouldn't have minded this so much if they weren't going against character. I really don't mind the plot deviations, if I wanted a direct adaptation I'd just go re-read the comic. But when you have Rick leading his family and group into direct danger, and than freaking out once they got there, that is just so contrary to the Rick's motivations and demeanor in the comic that it puts me off a bit.Originally Posted by galadiman
Here are some random thoughts re Dr. CDC: Just some thoughts. I am enjoying the show, though they fall back on some annoying survival-movie tropes (some unnecessary splitting up, some unnecessary panics...) though less often than most of this genre. I'm looking forward to more.

I played new powersets in Praetoria because it's all new to me.
Stamina at 2 and Ninja Run at 4 are dreamy. -
I gave away most of my comics from when I was a kid, and I only just really started collecting again last year. So far I only have 2 longboxes full, but I'm OCD about them so they're in perfect organized order.
It also helps that a lot of my comics are digital too. The internet sure does help a guy catch up on 15 years of comics to get caught up. -
Quote:Not much. Couldn't help but take advantage of that Going Rogue deal, so I'm back for a few months. How's Victory? Seems awful quiet around here...Originally Posted by Kobolt_Thunder
Holy hell they'll let anybody in here! What's up buddy?

Also, was there a Halloween event going on? The banner events clear out all mobs but for the banners, so that could be it. Check to make sure you can receive Hero Alert Messages to help you out there, but you can also hear when the event triggers (musical intro). The sky also goes all gray and cloudy, which is different from the usual starry sky you get in Paragon City (other than Croatoa, of course).

I can neither confirm nor deny such accusations.

Oh, and that thing I mentioned on VF last night? Here it is.
It was actually from a Positron tweet here.
I'm still not a fanboi.
The fansite folks actually do stuff to further help the game and we barely get a mention once a year.
Edit to clarify: I'm not saying that I or anyone else that runs a fansite expects anything from anyone for what we do. We do it because we want to and like to. I'm not saying we automatically deserve lifetime subscriptions or anything... just that a little bit of recognition every now and then would be welcome. As-is, since Lighthouse left, any and all red-name interaction has completely disappeared.
