billytea, score! That is it, thank you!
Part of the reason I'm interested in looking at it again is that you have a team of people who are raw recruits, and you have to train them up before sending them into the "field" to screw with time. But because other players are doing the same, you have to balance the tradeoff between having them trained and keeping them out of the field, thus losing the time war.
Oh, and megan - you hoard color cards. Obviously the more wild cards you hold the better, but there's also the factor that there are more cards of some colors than others, so you can conceivably own a color.
OK, I thought you were talking about routes.
But you have to build eventually, so I still don't really see how this would work in practice. Others will still be able to build early, and once you start building they'll be able to draw colors, so how do you catch up?
Oh the shame. I almost did it again. With sending my 360 off for repair, I was hoping they'd send a new one with an HDMI port. I pull it out of the box, read the letter telling me it's a different machine. I look on the back, and for a brief moment, look at the USB port for the wifi thing, and think "sweet! I got an HDMI... shit. Nope."
Clearly the top of the Pete list has affected me
We spent all weekend playing FPSs at a LAN party. I haven't done that in like 3 years, and am no longer l33t. Still, two different friends showed up at our place needing tea and sympathy, which came in the form of beer and fragging shit, so it was good.
Hee. I've sadly never been l33t. Of course, I kind of skipped from Doom 2 to Halo, so I missed a whole lot of evolution of FPSes in-between. I spent most of my gaming time playing fighting games and RPGs.
Sadly, my dad can kick my butt at Halo because of this (he almost exclusively plays FPSes and sports games), though my younger brother just utterly destroys me.
I fear for the skill level of my nephews and my son, growing up with modern videogames (not that Mattias is ready for games yet). My 4-year old nephew actually beat his dad at Tiger Woods Golf the first time my nephew played (and my BIL loves playing Tiger Woods.)
Penny Arcade tackles racism in gaming. Hee.
Is it weird to make miis of people you know?
We made miis of all the King of the Hill characters. Yeah, I dunno.
I didn't realize they would populate the games. Yesterday my roommate and my friend in Chicago were tossing me hula hoops. It was bizarre. Now I can't decide if I want to make all my friends or delete them all.
