  1. Iirc it's not as cut and dry as male/female. I think Alg has elaborated on here before. Not 100% sure though This one? Because if it's the "not as cut and dry" bit, that's the understatement of the year and I could definitely elaborate on the details of that if it's needed on an entirely unrelated note, it's taken me seven years but I've finally tied Assume Nothing for top posts on this thread
  2. Banned because it is perfectly readable, just not in traditional English
  3. Could make it work. Could also make it worse. Have you considered replacing the blue with orange? Because you're getting dangerously close to having an actual color harmony there. The best part of art is mastering the line between sincerity and bullshit.
  4. You don't have enough badges to beg for mercy from Arceus.

    And are apparently A Good Thingtm Also as an addendum: our parties' relationships can best be described as a series of temper tantrums where none of the people involved know what they're actually supposed to be working on. The important thing to remember is that none of it is your party's fault.

    On the topic of heat, apparently there is rain in Barstow, but not up here. Nothing like getting less rain than the [bleep]ing desert to make you aware of the drought
  8. The gameplay could use a bit of a spitshine too, it was a bit iffy even then.
  9. The American one is much the same, a lot of it is because the site's focus is fiction and the clichés themselves are... well, cliché. Writers who should know better still use them even if nobody talks like that anymore, and native speakers tend to take their complete lack of meaning for granted. I really should look for a better source. Have been thinking about those sorts of cultural differences far too often lately. not at all out of awareness of my own changing speech patterns
  10. 8/10 would paint with those colors. From a colorist perspective the red-violet/yellow-green complementary harmony is rare but rewarding, and although the yellow is a tad loud it pairs nicely with both, with the blue providing the perfect amount of value contrast to oh who am I kidding it blinded me and I can't actually see what I'm supposed to be rating Still better than a lot of other compers' choices.
  11. Like marijuana, the free bar is a gateway drug.Solomans Not even once. [peer pressure intensifies]
  12. gg it came out right as I went "hm you know what I don't want to buy any other auras, let's buy a few hundred k points worth of emotes. it's not like there's anything else worth buying!" '-' MINOR VICTORY ;-;
  13. At least there's a loyalty point option, minor as that is
  14. http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/UsefulNotes/SeparatedByACommonLanguage http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/StockAmericanPhrases http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/StockBritishPhrases A highly casual overview of some differences. The American half is pretty okay, can't vouch for the rest of the world's (obviously). It's mostly focused on colloquialisms and casual speech, if that's what you're looking for. Cultural differences are pretty interesting, though the posturing that tends to come with them annoys the hell out of me.

    That is a point. I'm not a boxing fan by any stretch, I don't know what people were expecting :-P

    There isn't, but it's not exactly fun to watch. It's a bit understandable to be disappointed if you pay a not-entirely-insignificant sum of money to see a sporting event and it ends up being a farce.
  17. It's very possible to be in favor of free speech while strongly disagreeing with what certain groups actually say, and not wanting to endorse or support them for it. To suggest that using their right to free speech to nonviolently disagree means they "advocate not having freedom of speech" is downright deplorable. But by all means, keep trying to discredit people that disagree with you as enemies of free speech.
  18. They did in the past, probably about as often as they do today. Which is to say, very rarely. I'd almost suggest that the completionist mentality has been a stronger driving force for players throughout the game's life
  19. They said they wouldn't improve the drop rate cause they're scared trimmed Compers will have a [bleep]fit if they do. There's a part of me that hopes that trim compers would be completely okay with champion scrolls being less stupid if it means they can actually get rewards out of them. I mean, yeah 60k/week! That would be awesome if you could realistically get more than one champ scroll per week!
  20. Has it really been that long?
  21. Can we get it featured anyway if it isn't?
  22. Hey, remember when the quest hall served that purpose? No? Okay then, back to crying about the old stuff being obsolete
  23. Is... is that an improved costume room menu...? It's beautiful...
  24. Oooooor you could wait until the event and cut the amount of time you have to spend there in half! I won't tell anyone you didn't waste your life there if you won't :-D
