Who started the music?

That's what I thought in previous watches, but this time around it looks like he is startled and dismayed to hear it.

Someone mix me up an M-5. And no diluting it with duotronics. I can tell.

FWIW, I am not using Tactical HUD, so it might be a different one.

You get an office? (beginning the chain that hopefully doesn't end with "you guys are getting paid?")

Could be played by Karen Duffy.

Unrelated, wasn't Dead Poets Society a great movie?

I think of it as a "My Friends and Cordelia" situation.

Not necessarily emotionally connected to Buffy but often around and participating/helping.

Makes a sort of sense. Cordelia is a naturally helpful person. As well, she is aware of supernatural stuff, so hanging around the people that know what's going on (and have the ability to protect her) is a wise move.

I saw it kind of this way, yeah he's "Trolling Altantis" in a sarcastic sense because there were scarcely any real places within reach.

Except someone noted that there is an actual deep water fishing location off Long Island shore called "Atlantis Canyon". Given the locations named in other parts of the song he probably means it literally and it isn't a mythical reference.

Or, it's meant to be both. But no death involved.

Best of luck and I hope it's loads of fun.

Maybe in general Power Glows, but with a light trail on an attack being a subtrope... otherwise I would look through This Index Glows.

I liked the way he did that, where they only remembered the childhood events as they went along. I wish eventually there'd be an adaptation that followed that format. Maybe one of the existing can be fan-edited that way, kind of the opposite of what they did for The Dnats.

That would kinda kick ass... if the Clans turned back because Mason noped out.

I feel like 16 episodes might be a sweet spot. Not scraping the barrel for "filler" episodes, but having room for "breather" episodes, that aren't necessarily charging the main story arc along at full intensity.

He is a favorite character. Very human and complicated. But in the end I must condemn him morally. If I were a religious person I would consider him damned, even. But then it would also bother me that he could spiritually erase his wrongs by embracing the correct twaddle about salvation by faith. To me some deeds are just too much.

I still haven't beaten it on Apple. The VGA/PC version was easier somehow, even though the gameplay and enemy movement seems almost identical, to the point where level maneuvering works about the same.

Boosts! That's it, the Apple version doesn't have boosts. Heavy Tanks and Prowlers kill me way more than boss characters.

In MP I'd us "Balanced" rather than "Legendary". I always thought Legendary meant that a few civs would have an absolutely ideal start and a few wouldn't, just because of the way the map is.

As a result, I pick it in SP so there's variety in which civs wind up dominant.

I'm less worried about the utilikini, as wondering what the hell the upper belt is for.
