Buffistas

I get confused. I remember everything. I remember too much, and... some of it's made up, and... some of it can't be quantified, and... there's secrets.

Kristin, I don't think you can merge the data. The 360 sees the profiles as effectively two people.

It might have been better to have upgraded your own profile to a full Live account and just changed the name to one that was available on Live. If that was possible.

Starting a new profile pretty much precludes being able to use your previous profile's data.

We're all getting played with, babe. -Weird Barbie

ND has just informed me that that's exactly what he did, so it's not an issue. Yay him!

Oh, and if you guys play Left 4 Dead, let me know so I can join in.

Okay, back to things & stuff...

Oh, and Little Big Planet is a PS3 game, right?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Sean, yep

Oh man, those are great band names too!

We were playing Kingdoms in the hospital room, which is basically tic-tac-toe on steroids, but it has a castles and dragons theme. The nurse asked what it was, and said, "Oh, I thought maybe it was that Dungeons and Dragons game."

I did not mention that all the stuff for THAT game was in the closet, awaiting additional players to arrive.

I finished up Oblivion, well finished enough quest lines to feel finished. Since I had the game of the year edition, there are a lot of quest lines.

I started up Neverwinter Nights 2 which I gather is based on D&D 3.5 rules. Character creation and progression in D&D 3.5 appears to be several orders of magnitude more complex than the D&D I played many, many moons ago. I think it might be a bit of overkill for a computer game.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

You are correct. 4.0 simplified it a bit.

You are correct. 4.0 simplified it a bit.

Probably for the best, though maybe it plays out differently with pen & pencil. I bet there must be epic online debates somewhere.
