  1. @noir It wasn't your fault. Even if there was room on top of the table, there wasn't any way to make more room around it without asking a bunch of other people to move.

  2. @noir There just wasn't room around the table for me. I couldn't get in without blocking someone's view of the screen.

  4. @communistprime !vgp Tsugumi's good ending from Ever17, which was much more heart-wrenching than all of the bad endings combined. At least, it was for me.

  5. @darcyblue Yeah, I'm fine. I wasn't involved in any way. It just happened like half a block away from my house is all. !calgary

  6. @noir Well, if someone's going to wake me up at quarter to four in the morning, I'd certainly prefer it if they didn't use a GUN. Right now, though, I'm just curious about what actually happened. I've been checking news sites all day, but only Global and QR77 picked up the story at all, and all they said was that it ENDED peacefully. No mention of the fact that shots were fired three hours BEFORE it ended. !calgary

  7. !calgary Not used to waking up to the sound of gunfire. Last time I lived in an area where that was an issue, I slept right through it.

  8. @anarchycarcino I remember that. It's about as good as it looks. !vgp

  9. !vgp Saints Row The Third was an awesome game, but now that I'm replaying Saints Row 2, I'm being consistently amazed by how many great features it had that were just completely left out of SR3. Like.. radio stations with more than two good songs. Holy crap I missed this soundtrack.

  11. !college !calgary Just got my class schedule for next semester, which starts on september 4th. Friday looks ugly. 8-5 with only a 1-hour break at 1 pm. || Can't complain about thursday, though. 4 hours total, counting the 1 hour break. Everything else is average || Still miss 1st semester when we started late on mondays and left early on fridays.

  13. @noir Depends how you get them. Intro packs (~$14) come with a 60-card deck and a 15-card booster pack, and are meant to be a casual starting point that you can add to later. || Event decks (~$25) come with a 60-card deck and a 15-card sideboard, and are meant to be good enough to jump straight in and play semi-competetively. || There's also the Deckbuilder's Toolkit (~$20), which comes with a mix of 225 cards plus four 15-card booster packs that you can use to build your own decks.

  14. @noir I told you it's fine. I'm not a collector, so I don't really care about condition. It wasn't bent that badly (in fact, I have two copies of that card, and I can't even tell which one was bent). Besides, it's only worth 10 cents anyways. Bring more of those cookies next meetup and we'll call it even.

  15. @noir Sure. Darcy also expressed interest in teaching new players tomorrow, so there should be no shortage of help.

  16. !calgary Speaking of M:TG and tommorow's game night: today is M13 launch day. I just picked up my fat pack, and I'm going to bring it, unopened, to see if anyone's interested in playing draft. Would be cool if someone else brought (or bought) a second pack. More cards = more players = more fun.

  17. @kraznor !calgary Next meetup is this saturday. We're doing a game night, so bring your dice/cards/whatevers.

  18. !vgp http://bit.ly/PocA8r Okay, whose brilliant idea was it to stick Bribery in the deck that already has Panoptic Mirror and Rite of Replication?

  20. @puzzlemint @carcino !vgp In short, Spec Ops is a shades-of-grey style game that does its best to make you feel like crap. Which is refreshing, in a morbid kind of way.

  21. @carcino !vgp Instead of the typical "Buck yeah, American war hero!" storyline of most MMS games, Spec Ops takes the "War is hell" approach and really drives it home. || You are sent on what initially seems like a rescue mission, only to find yourself caught in an active war zone with no idea which side (if either) is "the bad guys", and having to defend yourself against both. || There are cutscenes -- perhaps a few more than strictly necessary -- to drive the story forward, but most of the story is told through in-game chatter between yourself and your teammates. || The game also allows you to make choices (with consequences) through the gameplay, rather than through any RPG-style dialogue. "Do I shoot this guy, or let him walk away?"; "Do I use this rocket launcher to clear the room of hostiles, or do I try to find another way around?"; "Do I go in guns blazing? oops, I just gunned down a civilian who was running for cover."

  22. @carcino !vgp In terms of gameplay, Spec Ops IS a generic shooter. It's the story, and the way that the story is told that makes it great. You know, if you care about that sort of thing.

  25. !vgp http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jdHjLjGqhBg Pretty slick. I could do most of it, but not in 3 hours.

  29. !vgp Just finished watching the new Mass Effect 3 endings on youtube. They're.. longer. That's about it. || If you were actually hoping for a proper epilogue, or the slightest sense of closure, or any indication of what kind of impact the choices you made over the course of the trilogy have on the universe, you're not getting it here.

  30. @communistprime !vgp I still haven't decided whether or not I care enough to bother. Although, if Casey Hudson had any input on it, then I refuse to download it out of principle.
