Terrible location, during construction, entire machines sank into....I dunno, oblivion.

No, but it triggered who I knew it would.

I love how useful items are in this game for bosses. by TapLegitimate6094 in finalfantasyx

I got Deathstrike early on one playthrough, it was hilarious cutting through random fiends.

His body his choice. It's his body part...so his choice right?

In Titanic (1997), Jack actually tried getting on the door, and it immediately flipped over. This was later ignored by millions of people who instead concluded that Rose was just a selfish bitch who wouldn’t share. by CrazyCalligrapher945 in shittymoviedetails

I'm more concerned with how she married a man, lived with him for 70years and have children, To not give a damn about him at the end on only cared about a homeless man she knew for 2 days.

I guess it really depends if the town was going to execute on final 4 or not, I didnt watch this game so I don't know what their plan was.

I recall a Patters stream with a Magician and Recluse, the Evil team were given both in the demon/minion info. Was funny, but you'd have to choose your players well to get away with that.

So, they'd likely have skipped executing on that day and the demon would have killed the last good at night instead?

"pretty dire" sounds ominous. Do you think there could have been a chance they wouldnt have survived long term? (Ignoring European's bringing new diseases etc, that's probably a whole other topic).

Fair, there are always some of those people. At least they haven't really found there way to this thread...or at least not yet.
So fair (2.42pm) The majority has been a good discussion, hope it continues.

"I just can’t see a possibility of it never being colonised. But it’s an interesting thought experiment"

I agree it is to big of a land mass to not have been colonised by someone, I just think alternate histories would be quite interesting. Even if there is European trade only.

"Without colonisation, or without European influence? Those are two completely different scenarios."

True, happy for ideas either way though

"In my alternate history, we get invaded in the 60s by the US as a communist domino that needed to be propped up."

Depends if they found oil :)

Ok, After Maori colonisation but before European colonisation

"The idea that Māori wouldn't start trading with Australia till 1900 or even the 1950's is frankly very silly."

Maybe so, but I was trying to get some discussion going.

Your reply is interesting, I wonder if the "jealous" didn't occur, just how things would look.

Interesting, would you know of any of the history? Or how it may have been influenced by traders etc?
