- or one could just read the rules, but.....heh. If all else fails, blah blah blah -- nm - CQ Jan 4, 10:44 2
  - I would advise that. The rules are one small page. I just don't want anyone to miss out on that multiplier you get. - Bacon Jan 4, 10:49 1
    - yeah, better letting everyone know how it all works imo -- nm - CQ Jan 4, 11:06
Lawrence Kasdan is wrting the Boba Fett movie? - Spawn Jan 4, 10:16 19
- Already tapped to write Episode 7. That's a lot of eggs in one basket. But Empire Strikes Back is a good pedigree. -- nm - Mop (200 lbs) Jan 4, 12:44
- is it a sequel or a prequel? -- nm - Remlik Jan 4, 12:20
- They need to make an IG-88 movie. Relentless killing machine that never speaks. It just delivers death or capture with extreme prejudice. - TWuG Jan 4, 10:57 3
  - you obvie never read the tales of the bounty hunters stuff (big spoiler) ... - i'm not dead yet ! Jan 4, 11:45 2

    - or that he survives the Sarlac pit (he does in the novels) -- nm - Beaker Jan 4, 10:59 3
      - I like Spawn's idea better. Otherwise he's an easy to "attempt" to kill idiot. vs. his stand in was an easy to kill idiot. -- nm - Bacon Jan 4, 11:01 2
        
        They could have some fun with it. Clones. And the one that went in the Pit was a clone of a clone ala Multiplicity. -- nm - Spawn Jan 4, 11:09 1
        
        "pizztha" -- nm - CQ Jan 4, 11:39

        Yeah, I don't read books. That is an interesting storyline for sure. - Bacon Jan 4, 10:57
  - I could see that -- nm - CQ Jan 4, 10:42
- Building up expectations for the new Star Wars movies. What could possibly go wrong? -- nm - con_carne Jan 4, 10:35 1

  - Chicago is going to below 0. For the high. I need to get to NY! -- nm - ty97 Jan 4, 10:20 6
    - We have highs of -8 on Monday and -2 on Tuesday. Ugh. -- nm - Spawn Jan 4, 10:38 4
      - High of -8? Damn! What's the expected low? That's some scary weather. -- nm - Krusty Jan 4, 10:39 3
        
        Here is the forecast for my parents (near Chicago) - spamlet Jan 4, 10:46 1
        
        That is some Siberia type of weather. Scary cold! -- nm - Krusty Jan 4, 11:01
        
        Hmm. This one has at a low on Sunday of -16, -11 high and -13 low for Monday, but up to 5 on Tuesday., but t -- nm - Spawn Jan 4, 10:43
    - Yikes! The midwest is just getting killed. -- nm - Krusty Jan 4, 10:23
- how many times do we have to talk about this? *my* needs. am *I* getting more snow? - peggy ann mcamanda Jan 4, 09:56 3
  - Somehow I think you are escaping a lot of it (though it will rain/ice tomorrow) -- nm - ty97 Jan 4, 10:12
  - mom is hooking you up on a blind date -- nm - budice Jan 4, 10:07 1

- Group name, password? -- nm - IrishStephen (Master of The Filthy Jockstrap) Jan 4, 09:35 8
  - Oops sorry about that, - Bacon Jan 4, 09:39 7
    - Got it, thanks! - IrishStephen (Master of The Filthy Jockstrap) Jan 4, 09:46 6
      - Ok, so how does this work? Pick a new team each week? Or is it if you pick a player in W1 and they get knocked out you're down one player? -- nm - IrishStephen (Master of The Filthy Jockstrap) Jan 4, 09:49 5
        
        I think you pick new players every week based on which teams are still playing. -- nm - Krusty Jan 4, 09:58 4
        
        and get double points if they survive to the next week, right? -- nm - CQ Jan 4, 10:00 3
        
        Yes this. Pick players you think will likely go on to the next round and so on. There is a bonus structure as follows. - Bacon Jan 4, 10:24
        
        I believe so. -- nm - Krusty Jan 4, 10:14
        
        that is how it worked last year anyway -- nm - Beaker Jan 4, 10:02
