  - I first went skiing when I was 14 and after 2 hours I was going down the black slopes. Having no fear is a definite advantage. -- nm - Loyola Nov 17, 12:18

  - LYC: I had a drink called the snowshoe over the weekend - con_carne Nov 17, 12:17
  - this is so perfect. "It's like skiing, but less common in society, hence better." -- nm - TFox Nov 17, 12:16 12
    - it's more like... - znufrii Nov 17, 12:18 11
      - you could just not ski *together*. -- nm - Elf Andie Nov 17, 12:23 1
        
        i am a fan of the "doing a couple joint runs, and then peace, go ski at your own pace" thing myself. - TFox Nov 17, 12:24
      - [deleted]
      - snowshoeing is great. To me it's like hiking in the winter -- nm - CQ Nov 17, 12:19 5
        
        I'm looking forward to it. -- nm - znufrii Nov 17, 12:24
        
        "JJ Winter Casuals. The snowshoes that look like feet." -- nm - TFox Nov 17, 12:19 3
        
        actually have you seen the new design of snowshoes? They look awesome. -- nm - Reagen Nov 17, 12:21 2
        
        They work really well to. I can't wait to use mine in CT and VT to get some great photos. -- nm - CQ Nov 17, 12:23
        
        yeah, they do look mad cool. i'd love to get a pair for exploring around our cabin, actually. -- nm - TFox Nov 17, 12:21
      - or... you could ski faster, wussy boy. gravity is on your side. -- nm - TFox Nov 17, 12:18 1

- He should visit the School of Trent Green Don't Speak So Good No More. -- nm - Reagen Nov 17, 12:12 2
  - I dun't get whut chyer trine ta say hare. (nm) - Slack Jawed Yokel Nov 17, 12:18 1
    - that's way too many consonants for Trent Green - Reagen Nov 17, 12:25
- Holy crap. That blows. If he's even that close, I almost hope he opts to hang em up. Leave yourself some life to live and stuff. -- nm - TFox Nov 17, 12:08 1
  - Word. Don't mess with brain injuries. (nm) - musubi Nov 17, 12:12

    - So you are interested in Witten, but not Shiancoe? -- nm - the wrong element, bad guy Nov 17, 12:25
    - I'd prefer to deal Tony G. - Will Hunting Nov 17, 12:11 1

At one time or another EVERYONE wants to be a rockstar, but how many kids have the dream of being a DJ? -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Nov 17, 11:58
"Let's write an article on why DJ Hero flopped. We don't actually know why it flopped, so let's just list the few reasons not to buy this game." -- nm - con_carne Nov 17, 11:57 9
- Honestly, two of those reasons are why we didn't buy it, and we're on the fence about it. - JaxSean Nov 17, 11:59 8
  - That's why they built in a tutorial. -- nm - Shaun Nov 17, 12:01 7
    - I'm sure I'd get it once I started playing, but with Guitar Hero, playing the drums or singing is pretty straight-forward. - JaxSean Nov 17, 12:06 6
      - That's why I think it would be super fun to try. -- nm - Shaun Nov 17, 12:08 5
        
        Try, yes. Drop $120 on? Hmmm. -- nm - JaxSean Nov 17, 12:09 4
        
        That's a DS. There is no way that game is a better buy than a DS. -- nm - TFox Nov 17, 12:12
        
        I beleive you can also coop play with someone using a guitar. -- nm - Shaun Nov 17, 12:12 1
        
        Yeah, I read that in the ARS article and I didn't know that. -- nm - JaxSean Nov 17, 12:17
        
        Exactly. If it was $70, maybe. -- nm - Shaun Nov 17, 12:11
OHFERGOSHSAKES! My damn phone just needed to be turned off and back on again. (I never turn it off.) But it does need a new battery, which is $40. - mara Nov 17, 11:56 2
- Check ebay. -- nm - Spawn Nov 17, 11:58 1
  - Yeah - I got a replacement battery for my phone for $5 instead of $40/$50 from the store. -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Nov 17, 11:59
Apparently with DJ Hero, there's an option to simply "Play the tracklist", so if you wanted to just listen to the beats during a party, you can. -- nm - Shaun Nov 17, 11:54 1
- that's an expensive party mix. -- nm - Reagen Nov 17, 12:13
ATI Radeon Catalyst 9.11 drivers -- (link) - budice Nov 17, 11:54
LIR: eag/TFox. Are you playing hardcore? That's what I switched to when I bought the game - oblique Nov 17, 11:52 41
- Nope I started on medium - eag Nov 17, 11:55 33
  - Oh and the only thing that is in my stash in the town are extra gems and stuff that I cant use yet due to my skill level -- nm - eag Nov 17, 11:57 9
    - Yeah, I have a gem collection going. I haven't figured out yet, are unique items unique across the game or still randomly generated? -- nm - oblique Nov 17, 11:58 8
      - What do you mean? -- nm - eag Nov 17, 12:00 7
        
        I mean, are the unique items I find the same as what you find or are they totally random, just labelled unique? - oblique Nov 17, 12:02 6
        
        I think I've only found the one unique item so far, when I (game spoils) - TFox Nov 17, 12:06 3
        
        I've found three total so far I believe and bought two set items (not of the same set) -- nm - oblique Nov 17, 12:07 2
        
        I haven't noticed set items really, although I've bought very little stuff. Extremely little. - TFox Nov 17, 12:09 1
        
        Bright purple. Didn't start showing up for sale until level 13 or so for me. Haven't found any in drops yet. -- nm - oblique Nov 17, 12:11
        
        There suppose to be random - eag Nov 17, 12:06 1
        
        Yeah, I just remember Diablo had items that were unique in the game so if you found it, it was the same as if I found it -- nm - oblique Nov 17, 12:07
  - I need to fish more then. The ones I caught didn't transform into anything cool. -- nm - oblique Nov 17, 11:57 22
    - He basicly killed the overseer for me when he was transformed -- nm - eag Nov 17, 11:59 21
      - Jeez. My dog is useless -- nm - oblique Nov 17, 12:02 20
        
        I actually changed my cat's mood to defensive so he'd stop thrashing everything we found. - TFox Nov 17, 12:05 17
        
        I love it cause he can usually take care of the lesser minions while I fight the middle and big baddies in the game -- nm - eag Nov 17, 12:08 16
        
        I really need to work on my pet I think. What do you have him equipped with? -- nm - oblique Nov 17, 12:10 15
        
        Without having to look - eag Nov 17, 12:14 8
        
        I'll start by upgrading his spells -- nm - oblique Nov 17, 12:15
        
        i'm telling you, give the pet the summoning spells. it's like always having a third member of your party. -- nm - TFox Nov 17, 12:15 6
        
        I havent found too many summoning spells as loot - eag Nov 17, 12:18 5
        
        i probably have the advantage here playing as alchemist. -- nm - TFox Nov 17, 12:19 4
        
        Maybe that's a difference also. I'm a fighter, very little magic drops except rings and necklaces -- nm - oblique Nov 17, 12:20 3
        
        Its possible though I usually get tons of wands and staffs and im a vanquisher -- nm - eag Nov 17, 12:22 2
        
        Are you guys doing the side quests? - eag Nov 17, 12:24 1
        
        yes -- nm - TFox Nov 17, 12:25
        
        This might just be a difficulty level difference, yes? -- nm - TFox Nov 17, 12:11 5
        
        I don't remember it being very effective on normal either and I got all the way through the Overseer -- nm - oblique Nov 17, 12:12 4
        
        Did both of you guys buy your games trough steam ? - eag Nov 17, 12:16 3
        
        I did -- nm - oblique Nov 17, 12:17
        
        yes i did, and what does that do? -- nm - TFox Nov 17, 12:16 1
        
        It tells you who is playing when your playing - eag Nov 17, 12:20
        
        Do you have spells and rings on him? -- nm - eag Nov 17, 12:03 1
        
        Basic stuff. Silence lvl 1 and Frost lvl 1. Some decent rings. He's barely able to kill anything effectively -- nm - oblique Nov 17, 12:06
- still on normal, and i fished some, although i caught one, and then it wasn't in my inventory? - TFox Nov 17, 11:54 6
  - Hmm. The only ones I caught were for my pet. Interesting -- nm - oblique Nov 17, 11:56 4
    - I'm starting to wonder if some of the bonuses and items in Normal just don't exist in Hard, hence upping the difficulty. - TFox Nov 17, 12:01 3
      - I have admittedly not fished much on Hard. Must try tonight -- nm - oblique Nov 17, 12:02
      - Well ive read where in hard you have to be more specific in what your wearing to kill certain mob types -- nm - eag Nov 17, 12:02 1
        
        *shrug* I'm not finding that. I'm on level 15 now and while some battles are hard, I'm not varying my equipment -- nm - oblique Nov 17, 12:03
  - I got one of those -- nm - eag Nov 17, 11:56

        bah! - znufrii Nov 17, 12:00 1

- Interesting. He's following Fillon, Felcia Day, and Teller -- nm - oblique Nov 17, 11:53 1
  - Joss connection. -- nm - Spawn Nov 17, 11:54

*wonders if I could get more on eBay for the Greinke autographs* -- nm - Will Hunting Nov 17, 11:49 12

  - I think I'll wait on him; I don't think he's a Cliff Lee circa 2008 in a "Where the eff did that come from?": - Will Hunting Nov 17, 11:50 10
    - [deleted] 9
      - I really don't think that would work out for him. - the wrong element, bad guy Nov 17, 11:54 1
        
        [deleted]
      - With his social issues..i'm not sure he'd go to NY. - Will Hunting Nov 17, 11:54 6

        I could....bigger successful market = values going upward. - Will Hunting Nov 17, 11:57 3
        
        [deleted] 2
        
        Yeah. I could really handle him signing with the O's. - the wrong element, bad guy Nov 17, 12:06
        
        I'm glad my impact on the world is reaching this level. -- nm - Will Hunting Nov 17, 12:05
        
        He'd never come here either. I could see Anaheim. I could really see the NL too. -- nm - TFox Nov 17, 11:55
