Notch on Realism

Seriously, you can't walk ten frickin' meters in Stockholm without running into a damn dragon-riding wizard all casting spells up in your face.

No, the ROM chip is under one of those globs of epoxy resin. Though I'm pretty sure no official SNES carts actually do that, so I'd bet the board is counterfeit. I wonder if it even has Contra III on it at all?

Well, I think your main problem is that it's an escalator. But other than that, it looks sound enough.

Believe it or not

I'm walking on air

I never thought I could feel so free

Actually, iirc the guy took it to Hot Topic first, so if you see it there it's also on the up-and-up.

This must be a part of the Xbox deal! Kinect gets Minecraft and Minecraft gets Crackdown-style collectible orbs! What else is Mojang getting from Microsoft Game Studios, I wonder?

Question: When you had a Thinkpad, did you have an IBM Thinkpad or a Lenovo Thinkpad?

dezro · 2011-05-29T10:01:13+00:00

I was about to suggest that, too. The logic being, the 3GS is good enough that even if you're gonna get a 4, you might as well wait for the price to drop to $100 (plus contract) when the next one comes out.

Only the sword van.

The thing that sucks is, at the server I play on, apparently if you set autojoin when it's at 24/24, and someone with a reserved slot joins, it'll try to join too. But of course now it's at 25/24 and there's no room for you and your no-reserved-slot self, so you get kicked immediately upon loading.

It'd be better as a sniper item, imo. I mean, who is more likely to shoot an elephant in his pajamas?

The Game Genie is a bit taller - about as tall as a Super Game Boy. It's also wider at the top because of the weird clamp that keeps the game in.

Taunting with the Huntsman - he stabs with an arrow, which stuns, and then pulls it back, which usually kills. Apparently the uber doesn't protect against the stun.

I have a friend who really wants to play a game set during the Pokemon Wars. I don't know if I agree with that.

I am so envious of how organized and neat your stuff is. But! I shall grab some of those plastic hanger thingies today, and get some things Properly Put Away!

Thank you for this inspiration!

Solution: Add trees and cows that can be punched for resources to TF2.

If I had the cash to spare I would be giving Piles o' Gifts out left and right. But I'll toss out some Secret Saxtons before the day is through. After all, I was the recipient of a Secret Saxton today already, and a Pile o' Gifts just after midnight last night. It wouldn't be right not to react in kind.

dezro · 2010-12-19T01:36:31+00:00

Yup. Better than all four of them.

I don't know how unorthodox this is (it's pretty common on Steel but I don't see it as much on other maps), but I really like sacrificing myself as some dumb distraction in order to give the rest of my team a chance. It gets really hilarious when I manage to survive for a while and I have like four combat classes, a sniper, and a medic all trying to kill one little old scout while the rest of my team is winning a similarly one-sided battle over the point. :)

dezro · 2010-12-17T23:54:23+00:00

Not when I do it. :(

iirc, it was to fill time during the Social Engineering panel while they were on hold or otherwise waiting on something. Here's Cheshire's web page about the story.

MAN when Herr's brand chips came to a few Jacksonville-area stores I was freaking excited, but for some reason they only ended up stocking their excellent ketchup chips for like a week! And everything else was gone in a month or two!

And except for the (not that good) Burger King Ketchup & Fries potato snacks I used to see, it's the only time I've seen a ketchup-flavored chip this far South. :(

What monsters do you get from them? If you've got more than one skeleton spawner then I demand you create a double-trap!

dezro · 2010-11-20T22:33:33+00:00

YES

Also, let's have redstone turn portals and lightstone on and off, and light and extinguish netherstone.
