This actually makes youtube run really fast.

What the hell?! That's awesome, though.

I assume you've tried it? I'm hesitant about messing around with CL prompts for fear of accidentally my everything

Yeah; if you notice, he even provides a couple of rollback commands.

Hmm. Doesn't seem to be doing anything, but at least nothing appears to be broken.

Just spent a good long time ruling Tropico with an iron fist. ^_^

I think there's something wrong with the game that "partying capitalist" is a lot easier to pull off than "iron fisted tyrant".  My last attempt was a straight up effort to be a James Bond villain, with a militarized private island based entirely on tourism.  The common man serving the foreign dog at gunpoint, with Rebel Yell turned on just to spice things up a bit.  I got so caught up in building shit to keep people from revolting, and then building industry chains to pay for that shit, all of which made my Tourism Rating so unattractive it didn't like the right time, that it was 1977 before I built my first hotel.

By then, I was regularly topping 80% in completely free elections, my army and police force were basically just a jobs program, all of five people had ever become rebels, and even at its height my tourism industry was a minor slush fund on top of the industrial juggernauts of cigar rolling and arms manufacturing.  So, at least I was still evil-ish, I was just so good at it that everybody loved me instead of fearing me.

While I'm not sure which in the series your playing, in Tropico 4 (possibly in 3 as well) you can lower the political stability which I've found helps a bit in making people less agreeable. I will give you that the game tends to be quite easy to please everyone and to have good conflict requires some purposeful faction side-lining on the players part. Still all good fun though.

Maple syrup on ice cream is really good when you use the high quality pure maple syrup. The corn syrup with natural and artificial maple flavors compare at all.

This is true of putting real maple syrup on anything.

Okay, now you've gone too far.  That is some dangerous science you're messing with there and oh my God I can't wait to try that.

Boil it first, if you have the good stuff. It hardens and is amazing.

Someone told me to toast PB&J sandwiches. I have come here to tell everyone that this is a great idea.

Peanut butter, Nutella, and jam all toasted along with syrup drizzled in is best.
Oh, and honey.

Second only to using waffles instead of bread.

E: Well, in the realm of PB&J creations, anyway.

My family does toasted bread with peanut butter, honey, banana, and raisins.  YUM.


Just finished building my RP character, who is a seething boil of envy, frustration, petty vengeance, and sniper rifles.  She also happens to be a glass cannon with basically no willpower.  As the DM said, I keep on setting up dominos for him to knock down...   It's been really fun to do the balancing act between party dynamics, competence and mediocrity, nastiness and generosity.

First time I've done a build that was really based on characterization more than power level, and I'm quite pleased with it.

Toasted peanut butter and fried egg sandwiches. Or peanut butter, fried egg, and banana. I know that probably sounds wierd, but it makes for a simple and deceptively tasty breakfast.

Because it happens pretty often and always makes me super uncomfortable. Then there's a comic about it, and I laugh.

Have you ever had golden syrup dumplings?
