Destiny: I vanquished Skolas last night. Only 5 golden chests remain for the Moments of Triumph. -- nm - Shaun Aug 6, 10:21 31
- Did you get anything good as a reward? - the wrong element, bad guy Aug 6, 10:35 4
  - Nothing of note aside from a cipher. We beat the Round 5 servitor on the first attempt, and Skolas took about 5 attempts, where 3 of those were legit. - Shaun Aug 6, 10:37 3
    - That's a pretty good time. - the wrong element, bad guy Aug 6, 10:45 2
      - Definitely felt the lightswitch a few times. Those bastards just sneak up so fast sometimes. - Shaun Aug 6, 10:47 1
        
        I used my titan as well. Emergency WoD was used from time to time :) -- nm - Shaun Aug 6, 10:48
- In about a week I think I'll just have two left. Skolas and Atheon. - JaxSean Aug 6, 10:26 25
  - I'd agree with your assessment. -- nm - Shaun Aug 6, 10:28
  - We can carry you through Atheon this weekend. That's not a problem. -- nm - Imperator Aug 6, 10:27 23
    - sadly, i wont be around to help. -- nm - Truman Aug 6, 10:45 7
      - (most of us will not be) -- nm - Spawn Aug 6, 10:54 6
        
        Fine. Next week. - Imperator Aug 6, 10:57 5
        
        some of us want to visit places and meet people. in real life even. -- nm - Truman Aug 6, 11:02 4
        
        Some of us do that where it's supposed to be done! Disney World! -- nm - Imperator Aug 6, 11:06 3
        
        The happiest place on earth does not count as the real world. - Spawn Aug 6, 11:09
        
        why would I want to visit a place with lots of screaming and crying? plus children? -- nm - Truman Aug 6, 11:08 1

    - Going back to yesterday's thread; I wish I could just try solo-ing it. - JaxSean Aug 6, 10:34 14
      - The VoG is *impossible* to solo, like actually impossible. -- nm - Shaun Aug 6, 10:34 13
        
        Although you can do it with two people and you can solo sections. - the wrong element, bad guy Aug 6, 10:41
        
        Yeah, raids are designed for groups, not individuals. The same is true of Prison of Elders. - David Aug 6, 10:36 11
        
        (I was just saying, it's the one thing I don't like about multiplayer.) - JaxSean Aug 6, 10:55 8
        
        What chest is that? - Spawn Aug 6, 10:57 7
        
        I know that's there's one underneath the Sepiks lair right side stairs, but I'm guessing it might be another one. -- nm - Shaun Aug 6, 10:59 6
        
        Heh, we did the nightfall before that and we already had that one. -- nm - Spawn Aug 6, 11:03 5
        
        I need 2 Moon, 2 Venus and 1 Mars one. Youtube will show me the way. -- nm - Shaun Aug 6, 11:03 4
        
        I am annoyed that there is only 1 I need. I mean, each of the three avatars have a few they need, so I am not sure which planet it is even on. -- nm - Spawn Aug 6, 11:04 3
        
        If you pull up a planet, it'll say how many chests you've collected. -- nm* - Imperator Aug 6, 11:07 1
        
        For each avatar apparently as there are planets where I am 3/5, but the big circle indicate I have one left. -- nm - Spawn Aug 6, 11:10
        
        Just pick the character with the most and go from there. You know that when you hover over a planet it tells you how many chests you have right? -- nm - Shaun Aug 6, 11:06
        
        Yeah, PoE can be soloed (I've done a 32 once), but it's a lot better to have a group. - the wrong element, bad guy Aug 6, 10:46
        
        Yep, there'll always be 'those' guys who can solo Crota or Atheon, but for us regular folks, groups are where it's at. -- nm - Shaun Aug 6, 10:41
I for one like Arby's. -- nm - Baron Bing Bong Aug 6, 10:19 5
- Their roast beef sandwiches are ok, but I am a fan of some of the other specialty sandwiches they have/had. Also: Jamocha shakes. -- nm* - JaxSean Aug 6, 10:27
- I like it as well. -- nm - Mop Aug 6, 10:24
- I like their Chicken Cordon Blue when they have it and of course, curly fries. You could substitue Hardee's for Arby's in Stewart's insults though - oblique Aug 6, 10:22 1
  - I think moreso. - JaxSean Aug 6, 10:31
- It's the personal favorite of my choosiest cat, Tamara. -- nm - Imperator Aug 6, 10:21
The Smirnoff "Ice Your Beer" ad campaign is kind of funny though - Reagen Aug 6, 10:19
re: B2 Radlers are goddamn delicious. I like the Stiegl ones for next to no alcohol content, but Moosehead's version is a fave of mine. -- nm - Shaun Aug 6, 10:18

What's important here is that other candidates will have to raise the Crazy bar to clear Donald Trump. - Imperator Aug 6, 10:10 18
- It'll be one of the highest rated debates ever televised -- nm - decline Aug 6, 10:43

        In a manner, I think the shock over Palin's world knowledge was the early warning signal for conservative political operatives. - Imperator Aug 6, 10:26
      - "Mr. Bush, your campaign seems to have the momentum of a runaway freight train. Why are you so popular?" -- nm - Beaker Aug 6, 10:22 2
        
        Someone does need to serve Trump a plate of three-eyed fish. -- nm - Imperator Aug 6, 10:23 1
        
        I dont know what this means but I am 100% behind it. -- nm - mud Aug 6, 10:57
      - "Hillary...Threat to the US or threat to all human existence?" -- nm - TWuG Aug 6, 10:22
    - "Bill Cosby is a dear friend of mine..." -- nm - Beaker Aug 6, 10:20
