- Seems like a good plan. I did some reading last night and it turns out we really suck and need to get more points early on. - Krusty Jul 13, 07:28
- This is kind of what I suggested last night. - groiny Jul 13, 07:27 19
  - That or two people cover two spots like a door and one part of the wall area that they break through. - Krusty Jul 13, 07:29 18
    - We also need to figure out where they'll be coming from in the rooms we move to. I'm not 100% sure where to cover when we move out of the elevator. - Krusty Jul 13, 07:30 17
      - here, this should help, scroll down a bit, on the right, clickable maps with locations, etc -- nm - tRuMaN Jul 13, 07:35 4
        
        sorry, failing a lot this morning. -- (link) - tRuMaN Jul 13, 07:37 2
        
        I swear, I did not see half that shit in there. nm -- nm - groiny Jul 13, 07:44 1
        
        Word. The quick revive...never even heard of it. I think I may need to try it a few time solo to just see what's around and walk through the layout. - Krusty Jul 13, 07:57
        
        um.... nm -- nm - groiny Jul 13, 07:36
      - they come from right next to where the submachine guns are for sale. - groiny Jul 13, 07:32 11
        
        Yeah, that happened to me too. :-( -- nm - Krusty Jul 13, 07:35 10
        
        also, really, i dont think you should waste money on two weapons in the first room. - tRuMaN Jul 13, 07:43 9
        
        I agree. You need your cash later for opening up more areas to escape and to buy the better weapons. - Krusty Jul 13, 08:00
        
        it worked well for me, using the M14 for distance, and switching to olympia for close. nm -- nm - groiny Jul 13, 07:47 7
        
        but its a waste of money, which we need to horde, not spend -- nm - tRuMaN Jul 13, 07:48 6
        
        plus, you can wait to go downstairs pretty much whenever you want. - groiny Jul 13, 07:52 4
        
        true, i think. also, thought - tRuMaN Jul 13, 07:54 3
        
        that elevator plan might not be a bad idea. - groiny Jul 13, 07:56 1
        
        cause it seems like they all just show up downstairs anyways. - tRuMaN Jul 13, 07:58
        
        no idea, we did not last long enough down there to find out. nm -- nm - groiny Jul 13, 07:55
        
        *shrugs* - groiny Jul 13, 07:49

I already had a donut for breakfast and I'm still starving. decide my mooching: should I go to the first floor or the third to see what food is here? -- nm - amanda Jul 13, 07:09 7
- Good food hangs around longer the farther it is from the front door. I say third floor is more likley to have tasty food left to eat. - Bacon Jul 13, 07:11 6
  - third floor: a handful of goldfish crackers. maybe I'll check over in 220. -- nm - amanda Jul 13, 07:23 2
    - mmm...goldfish crackers. -- nm - znufrii Jul 13, 07:30
    - Crap!! Third floor fail! -- nm - Bacon Jul 13, 07:24
  - good food doesn't make it that far. the only chance at good food is to hang out at the front door and attack when it's brought in. the 3rd floor only - dogbert Jul 13, 07:16
  - Good answer, good answer. Also, if you go down when things are bad (fires, floods, tornados), you should go up for good things. -- nm - mara Jul 13, 07:13 1
    - Yes down for bad, up for good! I like this -- nm - Bacon Jul 13, 07:14

I'm thinking of signing up for a Krav Maga class. -- nm - Mel Profit Jul 13, 07:08 8
- My bus route passes by a KM Worldwide studio every day. When class is in session, it is a sight to behold. - Hollywood Jesus Jul 13, 07:45
- Prepare to be black and blue as you go through lessons. This according to the NP I see at the Drs. office who does it. -- nm - bc/nc Jul 13, 07:40 1
  - I don't care about lumps I'm just not the steadiest guy on my feet and am wondering if it's a waste of my time. -- nm - Mel Profit Jul 13, 07:44
- and definitely not karate, the Dane Cook of martial arts. -- nm - Reagen Jul 13, 07:22 2
  - that bad? -- nm - Mel Profit Jul 13, 07:23 1
    - I'm on an Archer run. -- nm - Reagen Jul 13, 07:27

"You see, a lot of women are going to want to have sex with you, and we want them to think they can" -- nm - The Simpsons Jul 13, 06:50 9
- In the past it was about male stars being married, now it is about being gay it seems -- nm - Beaker Jul 13, 06:52 8
  - That's dumb. There's plenty of both to go around. Gay for the gay, straight for the straight, then there's the ones who do both!! -- nm - miffed67 Jul 13, 06:54 7
    - In an ideal world this would be true, our world isn't ideal. -- nm - Andie Jul 13, 07:01 3
      - Yeah, but that just means it behooves us to change it. Sorry.....idealist and probably slightly naive. -- nm - miffed67 Jul 13, 07:03 2
        
        oh, i'm not disagreeing. i am just saying (and i am not saying it's right) a studio is 'protecting their investment' - Andie Jul 13, 07:06 1
        
        I get what you're saying, and yes, they're in business to make money, but - miffed67 Jul 13, 07:20
    - Also, people are going to fantasize, no matter what the situation is with the celebrity. Why should someone being married - miffed67 Jul 13, 06:58 2
