So I suppose I should be prepared for a general slowdown of the internet this afternoon. -- nm - Dano Mar 19, 07:27
Sorry about the early bailout on KZ2 night, Red. Had to go. We'll definitely need to do it again though. -- nm - Shaun Mar 19, 07:24 11
- Do they have any smaller maps? There's a whole lot of just running around when there are only a few players. -- nm - Ender Mar 19, 07:28 7
  - Yeah there are at least 2 smaller maps. Each map has a description. Also, I think enemy radar blips were turned off, which was frustrating. -- nm - Shaun Mar 19, 07:29 6
    - I had them turned on when you fired your weapon. But yeah, in a small group I should have turned them full on -- nm - Redmond Mar 19, 07:31 1
      - Ahhhh ok. You were hard to find :) -- nm - Shaun Mar 19, 07:32
    - I thought I picked the smallest maps. I am still learning. Now that we are all on friends - Redmond Mar 19, 07:30 3
      - Radec's Academy is one of the smaller maps, not sure if it's called "small" by the game though. -- nm - Shaun Mar 19, 07:32 2
        
        That was the second one I had in the queue. The other one was the one you joined in on. -- nm - Redmond Mar 19, 07:32 1
        
        The one I played was Radec's. I remember it well since it was the first map I played on online game on :) -- nm - Shaun Mar 19, 07:33

        then the writers of Lost will really be in a bind. - Mel Profit Mar 19, 07:24
  - It's watchable online, I don't know if they're going to rebroadcast it at all. -- nm - znufrii Mar 19, 07:13
- That's one of my few quibbles with the show (spoilers) - znufrii Mar 19, 07:09
- [deleted]
so, the The Color of Magic is going to be shown on the ion channel this weekend, is it worth recording? -- nm - tRuMaN Mar 19, 07:02 7
- EW gave it a C...if it's anything like The HogFather Christmas special...it will be a mix of good and cheesy - The Calico Cat Coalition Mar 19, 07:05 1
  - never saw the hogfather - tRuMaN Mar 19, 07:07

  - sunday on the ion channel I believe, its 4 hours long according to my dvr. -- nm - tRuMaN Mar 19, 07:04 3

- That's too much to read this early in the morning. I will just say. Good job on whatever you said. -- nm - Redmond Mar 19, 07:19
- *shrug* - if they give back the bonus they didn't deserve (imo) in the first place, then they won't need to pay taxes on it. -- nm - decline Mar 19, 07:16 1
  - *ding* -- nm - The Calico Cat Coalition Mar 19, 07:34
- But it's fully consonant with "Oh, no you di'n't" Clause, so at least it has that going for it. -- nm - znufrii Mar 19, 07:12 4
  - Seriously, though, what are the chances this goes anywhere? -- nm - znufrii Mar 19, 07:15 3
    - [deleted] 2
      - See, but the thing is, it might be a witch hunt...but these people they are hunting are standing over a cauldron casting spells -- nm - The Calico Cat Coalition Mar 19, 07:36
      - hmmm...that would be...unfortunate. -- nm - znufrii Mar 19, 07:26
- Very nice! -- nm - Krusty Mar 19, 07:05
- So they might end up paying more in taxes than they recived in bonuses...Sux to be them - The Calico Cat Coalition Mar 19, 07:04 3
  - So, still in the raging phase without any thought at all to the precedent and consequences. Good to see. -- nm - Will Hunting Mar 19, 07:07 2

What are the odds of the local college's NIT game being televised tonight? - TFox Mar 19, 06:48 4

  - Does Pepper Brooks do basketball announcing too? Certain;y hope so. -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Mar 19, 06:55
- RI? It's definitely televised, but only on a couple Fox Sports channels (for instance: Fox Sports Pittsburgh). -- nm - Don Homer Mar 19, 06:50 1
  - Looks like it might be the local sports channel (Cox 3), but it has the high school basketball championship tonight too. -- nm - TFox Mar 19, 06:55
ouch, Krusy forogt to set his golfers -- nm - CQ Mar 19, 06:48 19

      - you'll need the wine when you grow your palaces and colonies and level up your town hall - CQ Mar 19, 07:17
      - yeah, no complaints here either. - znufrii Mar 19, 07:14
    - also, listening to all the newbies pillaging is quite funny. I think the new version warrants it, maybe. I think not being able to pillage gold stinks -- nm - CQ Mar 19, 06:53 6
      - It's funny, agreed. - Mel Profit Mar 19, 06:56 5
        
        yeah, the ridiculous extra resources is nice, but it completely killed the markets imo. -- nm - CQ Mar 19, 06:58 4
        
        You may be right... - Mel Profit Mar 19, 07:00 3

      - You're gonna need a lot of medals. -- nm - Inigo Mar 19, 06:31 1
        
        not really, I'll just take that one back once you no longer have a need for it. - znufrii Mar 19, 06:33
Will, what rate were you quoted for a 30 year mortgage? -- nm - Inigo Mar 19, 06:14 2
