LET THE IRON HIT THE FLOOR

WHENCE IT SHALL BE REFINED

WITH THE BODIES

[Dozebôm Lolumzalìs]

Dammit, saw the D and thought you were GWG, returned from the dead.

[Shook]

so Planetside 2 is surprisingly fun

Me and my brother were like "we need a liberator (gunship) to dick around with" so we went to Koltyr (the newbie continent, since i'm actually pretty new at this game), assisted in the capture of a base with large landing pads, spawned a liberator with an anti-tank weapon and went to goddamn town on every enemy vehicle in sight. A few people were clearly getting annoyed by us, since they incessantly came after us with fighter jets, but NONE SUCCEEDED IN THEIR TASK (partly because we were both engineers so we landed and repaired after each confrontation). We wrecked a good number of fighters and ground vehicles before deciding to take a break from being THAT DAMNED LIBERATOR^TM, which had the added bonus of denying their chance of delicious revenge. :v

Nope!

It looks like an aged Mudokon named Abe.

I fully expect Liberators to be nerfed after this.

I have been playing a successful run on Dungeons of Dredmor, and can almost cover my glasses in cheese. I already covered my chestplate in cogs. Things are going well.

Good to hear! What sort of build are you using?

Well, it was a pretty good run (considering my history and experience), but I died soon after, to an alternate dimension Diggle Hell. Damn Diggles.

But, my build, with my very vague memory of such things, was Battle Geologist, Axe, Shield, Master Of Arms, Magic Lawyer (mostly for the item-grabbing), Blood Magic, and Smithing.

I plan on introducing one of my friends to the game today (he's not very into roguelikes, due to the complexity that most of them carry, ((and ASCII art)), but he enjoys funny games, and I've been telling him about it, and he said he'd be willing to try), so hopefully that goes well.

I probably make it sound more badass than it was though (probably tallied up around a dozen-ish vehicle kills), but i can't deny that my brothers piloting skills probably saved our hides more than once. Well, that, and the fact that the fighter jets were stupid enough to remain squarely in the sights of the tail gun so i could shoot at them incessantly (also one enemy Liberator that hung out waaaaaaay too far down so i could nail it twice with the anti-tank gun). A manned Sunderer has surprisingly scary firepower though, and due to the constant presence of engineers near some of them, those Sunderers survived our harrying. :v (undefended ones, however...)
We could do jack shit to infantry at that altitude though, since the anti-tank gun has area damage comparable to popcorn. A direct hit would be an instant kill, but good luck hitting a dude who's like 3 pixels tall with a non-hitscan weapon that doesn't ignore gravity. A fast projectile it may be, but a magician i am not.

It's been years and they're still too good. Long range + instakill + tanky + all-purpose + able to hard-counter their counters just doesn't balance.

So there's this game you may have heard about, Kantai Collection. It's currently only available in Japan, but with the use of VPN servers I'm able to play the game without being redirected to some other site.

When I signed up and gave my admiral (player character) a name, I decided to use my Chinese name (Both of my parents were born and raised in China before they came to the United States, so yeah). Wang is a fairly common Chinese name (Example: In homeroom in my freshman year, there were somewhere between three and five "Wangs" and we all had different parents and the like), but in Chinese there are things that can be "attached" to characters, which might give them a different meaning.
For example, 王 <-- This is "Wang" without any of the "attachments".
I'd known that my Chinese family name was written with an "attachment" of some kind, but I couldn't remember what it was (I knew my personal name well enough), so I wound up having to guess.

Today I finally remembered and got worried enough about it to ask my mother, and I learned that I had guessed right.
汪 <-- This is my family name written in Chinese.

I don't know why I was even worried about it in the first place since it's use of Chinese in a Japanese game (perhaps because I identify as Chinese to some degree and because I'd be embarrassed to mis-write my own name), but I feel a lot better now.

And kind of proud, too.

EDIT: Apparently this shouldn't have gone here, so *shrug*. I read a cool comic today, and it had space lesbians in it, which made me happy.

Also, talked to some online friends today, including the one who I upset! And she now is okay with me. So hooray!

[BlackHeartKabal]

I can produce three good reasons why the above poster might want to edit out a link related to off site media and their comments related to it out of their post. Time will tell if I can think of a fourth.

[spümpkin]

Alright then. I'm keeping the comments, but just without context. If anyone's got a problem with me enjoying comics 'bout space lesbians, too bad, I guess.
