Mel, regarding your FB and mind-reading post. They already do that by deciding what they think you'll find important. - TWuG Mar 12, 07:42 9

Watched the first three episodes of Game of Thrones. It was OK, but not nearly as good as advertised. - prayformojo Mar 12, 07:38 18
- It picks up. -- nm - Diva Mar 12, 08:44
- Broke down and ordered this from Amazon. - ceregon Mar 12, 08:19
- Without spoiling me, does the end of the first book match the same pace as the end of the season? - LMS Mar 12, 08:03 4

        i noticed that all (I think) of the lost seasons are free on amazon prime streaming - tRuMaN Mar 12, 08:25
        
        It's not a show I would ever rewatch simply because the last season was such a disappointment to me. - TWuG Mar 12, 08:06
        
        its a beating but I'm so close - and if it weren't for Sawyer - I'd totally just chuck it. - Epiphany Mar 12, 08:05 3
        
        I *loved* the ending. -- nm - Jovian Mar 12, 08:09
        
        A lot of people hated the ending, but I really liked it. -- nm - loosilu Mar 12, 08:09
        
        Finish it. Enough people thought it ended well that you might enjoy how it resolves. - TWuG Mar 12, 08:07
    - Ah. Yeah. Knowing that will diminish the overall effect. -- nm - TWuG Mar 12, 07:43
ME3 I spoiled myself on the endings to the game, now I'm not sure I want to play it. I love the series so much that I don't want to be left with a - sycor Mar 12, 07:38 33
- *crossed this game off my list* - groiny Mar 12, 07:47 25

        well that is good. Because I am commited to completing this trilogy. - Jovian Mar 12, 08:03 2
        
        well, even without all the speculation about the ending here on st today - tRuMaN Mar 12, 08:07
        
        I've read some opinions on it only that made me think the ending is deeper than most people are seeing it as and those people hate it. Those that see - sycor Mar 12, 08:04
        
        well, I did not play 1 or 2, so skipping 3 will not break my heart.nm -- nm - groiny Mar 12, 07:59 1
        
        1 is good. 2 is great. 3 may be a ruiner. We'll see how I feel after finishing it. -- nm - sycor Mar 12, 08:03
      - This. - Krusty Mar 12, 07:55 9
        
        you are wrong, they removed scanning. - tRuMaN Mar 12, 07:58 8
        
        A few people called it scanning the other day so I was going off what they were saying. - Krusty Mar 12, 08:03 5
        
        the wrinkle this time - tRuMaN Mar 12, 08:22 4
        
        Interesting. Seems better than just scanning planet after planet for an hour - Krusty Mar 12, 08:28 3
        
        i still have borderlands 1 if you ever want to co-op. - tRuMaN Mar 12, 08:32 2
        
        I sold it to buy something else once we stopped playing it regularly. - Krusty Mar 12, 08:39 1
        
        aww. i keep them too long, and then their values for trade in become tiny - tRuMaN Mar 12, 08:42
        
        simple, but stressfull. -- nm - Jovian Mar 12, 07:59 1

        (spoiler) - sycor Mar 12, 07:52 1
        
        spoilers - tRuMaN Mar 12, 07:55
- not really an ME3 spoiler, more like a series spoiler - tRuMaN Mar 12, 07:45 3
  - oh I'm sure they will continue it somehow. They will at least need a DLC to wrap it up a little from what I've read. -- nm - sycor Mar 12, 07:46 2
    - Whatever the case, Bioware/EA isn't getting one more penny from me for ME3 - Jovian Mar 12, 07:47 1
      - i dont seem to hate it like some here do. - tRuMaN Mar 12, 07:53
- There are at least a dozen different endings. -- nm - Spawn - The Blood Feud God Mar 12, 07:39 2
  - from what I've read, it's really on 3 but with minor little differences making it like 16 endings. -- nm - sycor Mar 12, 07:39 1
    - this. just like previous games. -- nm - tRuMaN Mar 12, 07:43

    - Well, we know where Twug falls on the "What do you notice first" polls -- nm - Will Hunting Mar 12, 07:42 1
      - Boobs that size are not attractive in any way, shape or form. -- nm - TWuG Mar 12, 07:44
  - Dolly doesn't care if she looks fake. she knows she's fake. that's what's so great about her. -- nm - loosilu Mar 12, 07:37 3
    - Interesting definition of "great". Her voice is "great". Her appearance is gargoylish. She could play Cassandra on Dr Who - TWuG Mar 12, 07:39 2
      - she comes across as a very down to earth, humble person. She is very open about her surgeries. "It cost a lot of money to look this cheap." -- nm - loosilu Mar 12, 07:41 1
        
        she's as nice as can be. -- nm - TFox Mar 12, 07:47
