I did, but if they think I'm Belgiuming around them they'll plow through the Siegfried line and I just haven't had time to get my numbers up enough to handle it.

Urgh, nothign else to do, might as well keep trying.  Stupid French.

Also, Italy and Japan don't want to be Nazi friends with me.  It turns out no one will ever join an alliance with you unless you're both at war with the same people.  That's stupid.  I'm thinking about just dealing with them next and having all of Europe to myself and the Soviets.  If I don't join up with Japan then the US might not get involved until it's too late for Europe.

-Stuff-

Less a stab at you and more me disliking shallow choices offered in games. KOTOR especially is REALLY bad about it in my opinion, since both games are geared to very specific setups and the choices boil down to either "Force using Jedi" or "Lightsaber using Jedi" and in the end for all the supposed depth you spend all game talking to wooden characters and fighting and killing no named people.

Though that's more of a problem I have with Bioware in general who does that every single time and calls it a fresh new game. Honestly the best think I think they ever did was admit that Mass Effect shouldn't of been an RPG and made it into a dialog and story focused Third person shooter. At least there they have an excuse for their weaknesses.

I've never understood this "Mc" thing in Dorf Forts.  Nothing in Dorfs has ever naturally used "Mc" so why has "Urist Mcx" become the default name?  They could at least be more creative and make it a two-word thing.

I'm sleepy, I can't articulate what's going on in my head.

Also, all moral dilemmas boil down to Snow White vs Emperor Ming.

True. Bioware seems to insist we have to be a Spectre or a Jedi or a Grey ward or whatever the hell they can come up with now.

True enough, though at the very least, and it is only a small thing, it looks like Dragon Age 2 won't have that secret order crap.

You don't have to become a Specter again in Mass Effect 2. But then, by that point Sheperd is Space Jesus.

Yeah but Cerberous is kind of a secret order itself >.>. Still as I've said before, Bioware games may have their problems, but they will forever have my love becouse they let me side with werewolves to slaughter elves.

Considering the whole 'dwarves are Scottish' stereotype, it should be MacX.

Mac and Mc are generally considered interchangeable.

Mac sounds more Scottish than Mc.
Mc just sounds generic and boring.

Firefox tab inexplicable previewed again, and I can't close it. But this time, it's opened at a different point on the screen.

Fortunately, it doesn't happen too often. Hopefully this bug will be taken care of soon. Could be the extension instead.
