!vgp It's interesting how I have beaten everything in MarioKart 7, and I'm now just satisfying my OCD by getting three stars on all cups, but still, it just gets better and better ^3^

http://www.wolfquest.org/ I will play the hell out of Wolf Quest if we promise to make it the next RDN game.

@carcino Is each square a user? Are the railways the drama horses?

@abigpony Squares are groups. I suppose. Railways can be..... THE RP WAHHHHHHHHHH

@thunderdash. !vgp I'm sad that I can't get my own portal gun due to me residing in Canada :(
-
@darcyblue Didn't notice this until now, but I live in BC. I ordered it off Big Bad Toy Store as soon as pre-orders went live, they shipped to Canada.
-
@thunderdash oh! I was never aware of where they came from. I only saw them on a think geek. email newsletter and how they where unable to ship outside the USA. so now that I know this other information I may go and look for this portal gun.

@minti The power bloat only got crazier with the introduction of Ultimate (90) gear. But. Low-level play with friends and stuff on normal/hard is a good time.
-
@retl Oh god they raised the cap again? It was like, 80 last I checked x.x Mystic gear.
-
@minti Yep. I think it's probably more attainable for those plaing on Nightmare, but I don't have the DLC for early access to that. :B

F-Zero Maximum Velocity (GBA) sucks balls. The controls are horrendous. The original SNES controls are more direct, which is definitely better. !vgp

!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.

!vgp so I bought Gotham City Imposters. its a fun game with nearly endless combinations for loadout slots. HOWEVER even getting into a game is another matter whatsoever. getting dropped by the server is a more then common issue and finding players in matchmaking can be a chore with the ammount of connection drops from the servers I've found. hopefully they patch that. other then that its a fantastic game
-
!Calgary As for other events, I say again, the Science Center would be a great idea. If you need a Pony-based justification as to why, Twilight Sparkle LOVES her some science.

!Calgary I did heartily enjoy the games night and would favor more events like that in the future (just got Cards Against Humanity, if anypony is up for that. It's purposefully offensive in nature, but can be fun given the right group). There is actually a Munchkin tournament in town on the 28th if anypony is interested.

!calgarybronies Hey bronies! So its about that time of year again...and I would like to host a second annual BBQ! So who would be interested as I will need to make a tentative list to ensure everypony gets fed. I would like to host it around the same time as as last year (1st week or so of September) so as to give lots of time to those of you who might have to make arrangements with work. Please let me know if there is interest and I'll get to booking it. I was very happy with the location as well so Bowness park is where it will be. I should *hopefully* have a car for the date some I can pick up some bronies early if you want to help set up. The exact date and place will be posted later...just want to see if there is an interest <3

!vgp No, seriously - "Linux Tycoon." Build and manage a Linux distro in a game. 9_6

@scribus I could see that being very interesting actually. There's a *lot* of politics involved.
-
@toksyuryel I'm curious, I admit. Maybe a bit more curious about why it seemed like something worth doing, but also curious to try it out.
-
@scribus Well I'm assuming you meant creating a distro and overseeing its development, rather than installing an existing one and just playing sysadmin. The former is what would make for an interesting game.
-
!calgary Yo! Since I work at an art store now I am thinking of using my discount to make some pony-themed shirts. First on the list is a sweet hot pink tank top with Pinkie Pie's CM on it. Would anypony want a Trixie-blue tee w her CM made sparkly on it, or too girly?
Thursday, 12-Jul-12 02:02:22 UTC from web-
@darcyblue CM on the hip, or on the chest?
-
@pseudoartiste for what exactly?
-
@pseudoartiste if its a sweater or someing I'd toss it on the hip. having an image offcentre makes it stand out more.

!vgp wtf Nintendo! I go out of my way this weekend to get a network cable to hook my Wii to the internets only to come home frustrated finding out it has no network cable port. so now I have to find a LAN adapter just so I can make use of the 4000 Nintendo Wii points I bought! and I'm having a hell of a time finding one. no luck yet. really wish I had help obtaining one in my town. so I only want to tell Nintendo to STOP BEING DUMB!

GUH, no wonder I never beat #Crystalis before, crummy hit-detection, changing swords every 18 steps because one monster is only weak against fire, the next against wind, back to fire. . . !vgp

@noir dont worry noir. you where a jerk in the game. and there is something we like to call that. its "never do your enemy a small favor". which is a good thing. so no worrys. i do not expect less. as for the bending of the cards. just try your best not to. its usaly frowned upon when on loan of other peoples things. but no worrys. good to know you had fun.i think im planning on doing another game night inthe future to mix things up

!calgary Stampede was fun today, went to the 330 MLP show, it was the same as last year though, which was kinda expected(not to mention messed up and/or creepy because of the costumes). I saw some people from the group from a distance but i was with another friend so i didnt come talk to any of you guys. had some fun none the less watching the hypnotist before the show.
-
@aju1ceb0x I never myself liked the hypnotist. he has been doing the same skit since I was a kid at the stampede.
-
@darcyblue Well if its the same thing every time then thats understandable. but it was just funny for me to see for the first time. but, to each their own i guess.

@kerfuffled I am here. I am standing by the coca cola red lounge across from the stage. I'm wearing a Alienware hat, sunglasses, and an orange dress shirt

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

I feel like I should point out the trick to saving the maximum amount on Steam sales, just in case anybody still didn't know it: never buy something unless it's a daily deal, a flash deal, or the last day of the sale. Anything else leaves you open to the possibility of the game you bought becoming cheaper on a daily/flash deal later. !vgp
Friday, 13-Jul-12 00:41:36 UTC from web-
@bitshift Not to mention the possibility of somebody gifting you the game.
-
Also, since there's voting this year for what should go on flash sales, keep an eye on that - you might be able to increase your chances of a game you want getting cheap. !vgp
-
@toksyuryel That too.

-
!Calgary I'll also still be bringing the laptop and such so we can still. try to watch some pony stuff or at least music. it all depends on if I have a projector or not.
-
!Calgary OK so a note to all. next meetup will be a game night. I'll be trying to bring good pickup games. I'll see how much I can stuff in my bag. I most likely will be bringing the games Lunch money, munchkin cthulhu, kittens in a blender, Elixir, quarriors, and a few other choice games. M:TG PLAYERS. I will be bringing a few of my decks and offering help to people who want/need it. please come to the meetup around 5 and I'll help start you off on a good note. ALSO when I get home I will be puchaceing a projector screen online. and hopefully this weekend I will have time to get a one time use credit card to buy a micro projector I have my eyes on that is perfect for the meetup.
