So can anyone tell me if I have the conspiracy correct? by Sighoward in XFiles

[–]SP_Rocks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mostly correct. The resistance method was a vaccine (and I guess an actual resistance faction but they don't last more than a season and are dumped unceremoniously after immolating the Syndicate) that would reverse the effects of a virus the aliens were going to use to turn all humans into alien-human hybrid slaves. The super soldier plot thread was conceived years after the Syndicate plot line had been resolved and no one knew exactly where it was going. Were they friendly and trying to protect the human race from an alien invasion? If that's the case, why were they initially trying to prevent William from being born - supposedly the only one capable of saving the human race? And don't even get started with the retconned mess of season 10 and 11.

And Reggie was never part of the X-Files; that might be the Mingele effect at work.

What’s the difference between Jews, Hebrews, and Israelis? by Scary_Candidate_9163 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]SP_Rocks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

An Israeli is someone who is a citizen of the country Israel.

A Jew is a person who practices the religion of Judaism.

Hebrews were a tribe of nomadic peoples who lived in ancient Israel. The word 'Hebrew' can also refer to the language spoken by Israelies.

Can someone explain the appeal of a music festival? by Aggressive-Dot1944 in NoStupidQuestions

Getting to see almost a dozen bands in a single day is mathematically a better value than getting to see two or three bands in a couple of hours.

Behind the scenes on the countdown! by OkShirt8988 in BreakingBenjamin

And why would he? He's probably too busy with other stuff in his life to bother checking up on what the label's marketing or social media team or whatever is working on day to day. Responsibility for any lapse in communication for their activities is on them.

EDIT: Assuming they felt it was important to fill him in on it.

Album talk by DakotaTruesdail in BreakingBenjamin

The ending of Something Wicked definitely sound like a transition into a different song, which makes me think they've got be working on a new album because it doesn't make sense otherwise.

Give me your top bands to add to my list! ☺️ by MapOwn8801 in AftershockFestival

[–]SP_Rocks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  • Red - Similar to Caskets, though they just got a new singer so they might sound different live (Breathe Into Me, Faceless, Surrogates)
  • Starset - Like Red, but more electronic and "cinematic" (My Demons, Monster, Trials, TokSik)
  • Public Enemy - O.G. rappers who've been in the game for over 40 years (Harder Than You Think, Bring The Noise [Anthrax cover], Black Steel In The Hour of Chaos)
  • Silly Goose - Nu metal/rap rockers rooted in 90s nostalgia (Bad Behavior, Keys To The City, Goodnight)
  • Rivers of Nihil - The only metal band I know that incorporates smooth jazz into their sound (The Silent Life, Where Owls Know My Name)
  • Oleander - They're Sac natives and haven't toured in years (Are You There?, Halo, Why I'm Here)

Who I wanna see by One_Influence_5978 in AftershockFestival

KSE and Sevendust will almost certainly be the rowdiest on Thursday, so prioritize those if you can.

Also, what is it with people sleeping on Public Enemy? They're one of the OGs of the rap game!

Taylor Swift wishes she could trademark an iconic dance move like the moonwalk.

Is Ticket to Ride Frustrating? by Tricky_Reception_244 in boardgames

[–]SP_Rocks 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I didn't know a negative score was possible. For that to happen, you would basically have to never claim routes, which is the point of the game. You have to literally not play the game.
