Let's pull over and take a picture of that moose! -- nm - Mop (196 lbs) Jan 26, 08:56
Spawn.... - groiny Jan 26, 08:51 23
- Hmm. I have a frost bow, and magika stealing bow that I have picked up so far. - Spawn - Blood Feud Lord and Master Jan 26, 08:54 22
  - Can people share items on Skyrim? Like, could you make armor for Wes and he double enchant armor for you? -- nm - David Jan 26, 08:55 7
    - no, there is no co-op option in there. nm -- nm - groiny Jan 26, 08:55
    - [deleted] 5
      - which is the only knock on the game IMO. - groiny Jan 26, 08:56 4
        
        [deleted] 2
        
        none of the other games (Oblivion) had co-op IIRC. nm -- nm - groiny Jan 26, 08:58 1
        
        yup. they just dont care. again there is a pc mod some are working on to do this - tRuMaN Jan 26, 09:03
        
        word -- nm - Spawn - Blood Feud Lord and Master Jan 26, 08:57
  - you will burn through Soul Gems quickly, but it is worth it. nm -- nm - groiny Jan 26, 08:54 13
    - Yeah, I have a soul trap sword I use for them. -- nm - Spawn - Blood Feud Lord and Master Jan 26, 08:56
    - I always keep a soul-trap dagger or sword on me to fill empty gems -- nm - decline Jan 26, 08:55 11
      - do you know how you can get rid of your wife in the game? - groiny Jan 26, 09:08 10
        
        heh, here -- (link) - decline Jan 26, 09:15 [youtube]
        
        in-game in-laws giving you grief? -- nm - David Jan 26, 09:09 4
        
        I got my eye on a female warrior who looks like she coudl throw a good bang. nm -- nm - groiny Jan 26, 09:10 3
        
        The Companion chick? -- nm - Spawn - Blood Feud Lord and Master Jan 26, 09:13 2
        
        no, some Braveheart bitch from Riften. nm -- nm - groiny Jan 26, 09:15 1

        So wait, they don't put out until you are married and don't put out when you are? WTF? - Spawn - Blood Feud Lord and Master Jan 26, 09:12
        
        *thinks to myself ... those Skyrim dev's are wicked smart* -- nm - JenBro Jan 26, 09:11
LIR - Pippy - Yay! Sounds like you got a keeper! -- nm - JenBro Jan 26, 08:50
Skyrimmers 2 : How many houses do you own, and where? - groiny Jan 26, 08:48 23
- whiterun (breezehome), and 2 in Markarth (the yarl house and the shrine house) -- nm - tRuMaN Jan 26, 08:58 12
  - Two in the same city? Advantages? -- nm - Spawn - Blood Feud Lord and Master Jan 26, 09:00 7
    - shag pad. nm -- nm - groiny Jan 26, 09:01
    - none really. one you get from the yarl for doing some quests, the other comes from a deadric god - tRuMaN Jan 26, 09:01 5
      - Ah, question. I found my *first* black soul gem. - Spawn - Blood Feud Lord and Master Jan 26, 09:03 4
        
        yes, sorta. - tRuMaN Jan 26, 09:05
        
        they fill more of your items, and they also allow for a higher % of enchanting. nm -- nm - groiny Jan 26, 09:04
        
        (spoil) - decline Jan 26, 09:04
        
        about 8 inches. nm -- nm - groiny Jan 26, 09:03
  - I think I may hav flubbed a quest in Markath and now can't get a house there. I disliked that town/quests -- nm - decline Jan 26, 08:59 3
    - the house there is sweet though. - groiny Jan 26, 09:01
    - heh - tRuMaN Jan 26, 09:00
    - [deleted]
- Just the one in Whiterun so far. -- nm - Stephen Jan 26, 08:51
- 2. Whiterun and Riftin ( I am working on getting a 3rd in Falkreath) -- nm - decline Jan 26, 08:51
- [deleted]
- Just the one in Whiterun so far. I have about 15k gold and was thinking about a second one but the idea of my stuff being spread out over multiple - Spawn - Blood Feud Lord and Master Jan 26, 08:50 6
  - plus, I have a stash of magic items in every town I have a house in - groiny Jan 26, 08:54 1
    - there is a great pc mod for this, but alas its PC only - tRuMaN Jan 26, 08:59
  - but, you see.... - groiny Jan 26, 08:51 1
    - Well, I guess that will be handy when I start doing that. - Spawn - Blood Feud Lord and Master Jan 26, 08:55
  - The 1%. -- nm - Mop (196 lbs) Jan 26, 08:50 1
    - Anyone that kills dragons, deserves it. -- nm - Spawn - Blood Feud Lord and Master Jan 26, 08:51
LYC: I'm losing my care for the Madonna halftime show now, Cee Lo and LMFAO are rumored to be apearing with her. -- nm - MDH Jan 26, 08:46 27
- It's going to be Earwormageddon! -- nm - con_carne Jan 26, 08:54
- Cee Lo alone would make for a great performance. The other two are going to hold him back. -- nm - David Jan 26, 08:51 10
  - I saw Cee Lo at Lollapalooza last summer. He was awful. No joke, it was the worst performance of the weekend by a long way. - pmb Jan 26, 08:53 9
    - Careful. You're talking about my close personal friend. -- nm - David Jan 26, 08:54 8
      - I'm assuming you're joking (but don't want to offend if you actually are friends with him). But his performance was bizarre. He would stop songs in - pmb Jan 26, 08:57 6
        
        I guess the change in his set list just wasn't enough. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Jan 26, 09:20
        
        Back before anybody could answer the question, "Who is Cee Lo?", Kim and I met him on our honeymoon. - David Jan 26, 09:06 4
        
        very neat story. -- nm - Mel Profit Jan 26, 09:17
        
        Nice. Closest story I have is the Macarena. - Spawn - Blood Feud Lord and Master Jan 26, 09:16
        
        That's great. I like his music and he seems like a good guy when I've seen him interviewed, which is probably why I was so disappointed. - pmb Jan 26, 09:14
        
        That's great. -- nm - kelly Jan 26, 09:07
      - "Fuck you." - Spawn - Blood Feud Lord and Master Jan 26, 08:57
- I haven't liked Madonna's music much since the 90's, but she does know how to put on a show. - ceregon Jan 26, 08:50 1
  - yup - that's my thought too - plus her dancers are usually quite attractive :) -- nm - JenBro Jan 26, 09:09
- Lenny is with her, for sure. LMFAO is playing in town so that is possible. -- nm - Spawn - Blood Feud Lord and Master Jan 26, 08:50
- I'd be more interested if it was just them with no Madonna. -- nm - Mop (196 lbs) Jan 26, 08:50
- yeah, that's all we need...an aging pop star dancing with a dude wearing a box on his head while another guy sings "forget you" -- nm - i'm not dead yet ! Jan 26, 08:48
- I would rather see Cee Lo and LMAFO than Madonna -- nm - amoxy Jan 26, 08:48 9
  - Having seen all three of them, you couldn't be more wrong. -- nm - pmb Jan 26, 08:49 8
    - With a time machine I would see Madonna. Otherwise, no thanks. - Spawn - Blood Feud Lord and Master Jan 26, 08:59 7
      - She's been in a funk since Crazy for You. -- nm - David Jan 26, 09:07 2
        
        Ray of Light was the last thing she did I liked. -- nm - Mel Profit Jan 26, 09:18 1
        
        The album was not very good, though. -- nm - Spawn - Blood Feud Lord and Master Jan 26, 09:19
      - I saw her on her last tour and she puts on a good show. Personally I think it's rare that any performer really comes off well in the Super Bowl. - pmb Jan 26, 09:04 3
        
        *laughs* -- nm - Prince Jan 26, 09:07 2
        
        Like I said. Rare, but not impossible. -- nm - pmb Jan 26, 09:15 1
        
        Agreed. - Spawn - Blood Feud Lord and Master Jan 26, 09:18
