What Game(s) Did You Last Get and What Are You Playing?
Dragon Age 2 and Skyrim. It's like playing two completely opposite ends of the spectrum. Dragon Age 2 is complete shit, and Skyrim is [bleep]ing awesome.

The Walking Dead
I base my self-worth off of how correct my TV predictions are, let me have this. D: It was all leading up to something like that, despite how dumb it's going to end up being. What's the comic like? I was thinking of buying it but then I was told by a friend that it gets worse than the TV show, which put me off a lot. [spoiler=Next episode spoiler.]

The Walking Dead
Called it(ish). @Dizzle, he also had that zombie-ear necklace in his mouth after he was shot, too, I think. Infection is probably going to be as plot-reliant as near everything else. Good episode though. I'm thinking next episode is some more filler, stuff about barn, maybe resolve lost little girl, episode after that Herschel finds out about Maggie/Glenn, Glenn knowing about barn zombies, tensions build and stuff, something big is revealed (Shane attempted to rape Lori, Shane killed Otis, Lori's pregnancy, something like that), something bad and cliffhangery happens near the end (Horde assaulting the farmhouse, barn zombies escape, etc). Finale is them leaving the farm and onto wherever the hell they were headed (some military base, right? I've forgotten) plus Maggie and maybe the other kid, minus whoever (probably old woman if they can't find her kid). And just before he turns into a zombie, Herschel whispers something in Rick's/someone else's ear. We don't hear it. And then fan rage.

Movember 2011
Was doing No-Shave November until I wanted to look presentable for a job interview. My facial hair scares passerbys anyway. Relevant video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wDdIdr385tY

Things that annoy the HELL out of you.
Emus. I don't encounter them often but when I do they seem to enjoy nothing more than standing in the middle of the road like a jerk. Seriously, every emu I have seen in real life has been standing on a road, and none of them have moved promptly.

Real life help & advice
I do what I can to make writing stupid shitty ass assignments interesting. I'm just a bit flustered. I don't know why I can't say what I want without getting a 0% on an assignment. Have you actually sourced any of these heated debates? So far it looks like you've shown the creator of the show saying that the character doesn't have any sexual orientation, and then saying the complete opposite to that. Also I'm not sure how serious this essay is (not very, I'm assuming), but some of the wording could stand to be a bit more... formalised, I guess. Homosexual crowd, little children, etc. And the final sentence feels a bit tacked on, and doesn't really fit with the rest of the paragraph.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3
Question for people who own this on PC: how well does it run on your computers? I checked out the SRL for it and it said I passed by a pretty big margin, but Black Ops ran horribly on my computer, so I'm kinda worried that the same thing will happen. I remember seeing some people say that Black Ops was poorly optimised for PC or something but I don't really have any idea whether that's true or not, haha.

The Walking Dead
Due to budget restraints, the remainder of this season and the entire next season will be set on this farm. You heard it here first, folks. I think the thing with this show is that it has really good actionish scenes (the highway, well, even the school, to a point), the problem is that they either don't have the ability or inclination to connect it in a way that's logical, believable or entertaining, and instead have to resort to characters acting stupidly or farfetched contrivances. It feels like they have a team of writers, but none of them really talk to each other, so everything feels disjointed and boring. Still got money on old Christian guy having a zombie family in that barn. Two final sidenotes: Shane's new haircut is goofy as hell, who thought that would be a good idea? And again, Dale, Glenn, T-Dogg and Daryl for L4D3. [bleep] it, just give the whole thing to Valve.

Skula, Skorpa, Skalk - Falconer Been a while since I've listened to metal of any kind, power metal seems like the best way to ease myself into it. I have no idea what the guy's singing, but it sounds good.

GTA5 Announced by Rockstar.
Sounds very cool if legit. Seems as if they're kind of compressing all of the areas in SA. Really hope they don't go through with giving cars fuel, though.

You should've filmed it and put it on Youtube, so that when it got less funny for you guys, it got even funnier for people on the internet. Mowed and cleaned up a bike to sell today. Getting about $450 for it. Not bad for something that's been sitting in my back yard for like half a year, haha.

Nostalgia
Foursquare and wall-ball? Not sure what they are, explain and I might be able to know what they are in Australian child words. Foursquare sounds kind of like handball, minus the whole Ace, King, Queen, Dunce rotation thing. At least this is how my Australian mind sees it.

Dreaming about this happening and still panicking even though you graduated ages ago.

What movie(s) did you last see?
Captain America: The First Avenger. Pretty good, though the Hydra Salute is the most ridiculous thing I've ever seen in a superhero movie. Counting all those cheesy Batman movies.

The Walking Dead
I think the season one started spectacularly with the pilot, and went downhill from there, with the last episode being the worst of the lot. This season seems to be doing it the other way round. If they start characterising their characters some more, making the danger feel a bit more... consistent is the word, I guess, then hopefully it will be back to the pilot's quality soon enough.

What book are you currently reading?
Second Gaunt's Ghost omnibus, The Founding. I'd suggest the Gaunt's Ghosts series to anybody who enjoys sci-fi and wants to get into the world of 40K (maybe even if you don't want to get into it), really. It doesn't need any previous knowledge of the Warhammer series, Dan Abnett is one of the few good writers of Warhammer stuff, and it really is a good series. Beware though, they don't call him the 'kind of sci-fi GRRM but without the creepiness' for nothing. Really only I call him that but I am sure it will catch on.

Diamondseekers - Minecraft Server & Forums!
Most of the mods installed are there to help prevent griefing and theft. I think the only one that doesn't relate to that is the Economy stuff. You could always just not use them if you find them too complicated, I guess?

Not sure how many of you guys know how LWC Chest Protection junk works, I sure as hell didn't, haha. But here's a short list of commands and stuff, in case anyone needs it. There's also some stuff with groups and stuff but I'm not entirely sure about that stuff yet. [spoiler=LWC Commands]How to use: When you are in game in front of the chest you want to protect /lwc -c private OR /cprivate lets only you use it. /lwc -c private <name> or /cprivate <name> gives access to a specific person or list of persons (separated by a space I think). type /lwc -c password <password> puts a password on the chest which you need to put in first-access time per login. /lwc -r protection removes the protection on the chest. I think all chests created are automatically private, so you need to do this before you make the chest password protected or whatever. Probably not necessary but whatever. Also did mobs get turned off again or have I just been extraordinarily lucky?

Diamondseekers - Minecraft Server & Forums!
I apologize, people told me that it was made on the second day the server was created and they haven't seen the guy since. I didn't know you made it and i destroyed it when i was expanding the town. If you want replacement stone let me know in-game. Yes please. You can give it to either Cinta or I when we're online next. In the future, people should probably ask on either this forum or the Diamondseekers before they destroy things that they don't know who owns, so people who weren't online at the time get a chance to weigh in on it. Good to know that some protection mods and the whitelist have been put in though, hopefully these thefts and stuff will stop.
