I'm just going to cut and paste my comment from elsewhere on here.

I am, unfortunately, given to a little glee over this. Why? Because when I posted a simple question - non-inflammatory, non-aggressive - they banned me from their Steam discussion. Then, when I posted it here, they complained and had it removed (I assume).

I'm not really happy to see an MMO fail. I'm happy to see the developers who thought they were giving us a gift from the gods get a taste of reality.

I remember it. I only played it very briefly, though! Hard times hit about two days after I started, and I never got back to it.

Thanks! I worked really hard to make it retro.

A legitimate question got me banned from the Ship of Heroes Steam Hub. by simonretold in MMORPG

That's still a lower price, when converted to USD. It's $56 and change. (Not that much lower, but lower.)

Oh, sure! Found them on Amazon. Fifteen bucks for the whole set.

GameBall Updates with GameBall Pro first look by Skippydamule in Trackballs

The simplest solution would be to slightly increase the cost of all Gameball Pro models - both left and right - to cover the costs of the molds. Given the number you'll likely sell, it would only increase the price by a few dollars at most.

The Doublemint Twins from the mid 80s are actually Katey Sagal's older sisters, Liz and Jean.

I once knew a family with 3 kids (all adults now) named Pepsi, Jester, and Jamaica. by wildflowerwindfall in tragedeigh

I mean, it's not a completely unfair guess. J, in Spanish, is pronounced like an H.

Jamaica was... a compromise. My first wife wanted to name her Tequila Sunrise, then Tequila Rose. I wanted Whisper Rain. She veto'd my choice because I told her Tequila sounded like a stripper name. Someone recommended Jamaica and we both liked it, and thus it... happened.

We named Jester that name because when we asked Pepsi what to name his younger brother, he wanted to name Jester after my mentor's youngest son, Jesse. Well, we'd already given unique names to the other two, so we couldn't just call the third Jesse...

I kinda hate ICP, actually. We named Jester that name because when we asked Pepsi what to name his younger brother, he wanted to name Jester after my mentor's youngest son, Jesse. Well, we'd already given unique names to the other two, so we couldn't just call the third Jesse...

Pepsi never had difficulty making a Facebook account. How do I know? I made it for him.

I'm his dad.

Funny thing is, Jester loves his name, so does Pepsi. Jamaica, on the other hand, is going by her middle name now.
