- I have several types of long underwear that I wear most of the winter. If it is below 40, I have them on. -- nm - Spawn Nov 27, 07:58
- Same here. I was never really cold when I was chubby but since I've been skinny I'm always cold. - Krusty Nov 27, 07:51 14
  - I hadn't considered flannels under my jeans. Brilliant! -- nm - ty97 Nov 27, 07:55 13

        You a boxers guy? That means your nuts are cold. Get with the program! - Spawn Nov 27, 08:22

        heh. I pretty much only wear mine for skiing. -- nm - loosilu Nov 27, 08:14 1

    - I'm always cold too, but that's even high for me. Circulation problems? - decline Nov 27, 07:55
    - oh I lied, it might only be 73. Two important notes: - ty97 Nov 27, 07:54 8
      - I would get a real thermometer then, to check. -- nm - loosilu Nov 27, 07:58 2

      - you should buy a cheap hygromater (like this) and put it where you are actually sit. - Andie Nov 27, 07:57 3
        
        Good idea. I just ordered one. -- nm - ty97 Nov 27, 08:09

- Where does it say anything about the 30th? -- nm - Spawn Nov 27, 07:31 1
  - It was in the linked reference [3]. Supposedly the unlock codes for the additional specializations are going out on the 30th - oblique Nov 27, 07:35
- I think I am at 40, I doubt I can get to 50 by the 30th. nm -- nm - groiny Nov 27, 07:29

  - DT has 8 drops, Decker has 7...that's a decent amount, combined. - Jim Nov 27, 07:24 4
    - After seeing the Redskins drop so many, I'm surprised that's the league lead. - Will Hunting Nov 27, 07:29 3
      - Official drops is a joke stat. Most of the non-league calcs are more accurate. -- nm - David Nov 27, 07:34 2
        
        I just found a site that had them listed. I'm not sure how accurate it is. According to that site, there's no Redskin in the top 20-25 or so. -- nm - Jim Nov 27, 07:39 1
