"The Game" How Far Can You Go?
Powman, level 2 is really self-explanatory. Hint, you use your keyboard a lot more than your mouse in this game.

How Was 2007 For You?
Well, ahem, let's see. . . Good: - Finished off first year of high school on a high note - Went on some awesome trips over the summer (sailing in the Florida Keys FTW) - Started off good sophomore year - Got my first car, '77 VW Bug convertable 8-) - Scored in the 97th percentile on the PSAT Bad: Can't think of anything from more than a month ago right now because this week has been the absolute worst ever. I've been loaded with schoolwork, suffered a few minor injuries, seen my brother's mental and social condition deteriorate to the point of seriously trying to hurt me, and gotten so frikkin pissed at the way my dad treats me that I want to follow my brother's example. Eh, an ok year. I'm in a pretty bad mood right now as a result of the last week, so that's probably overshadowing the rest of my memories.

Stratagem, Series 2 - Parts II3 & II4 up, again.
Ok, I'm really sorry for not writing anything. . . This has been the worst week ever, the climax being just a few minutes ago. I will try my hardest to get something done this weekend. Don't forget all about Stratagem in the meantime. I'd hate to lose people because of my own apathy. I'm really grateful to everyone who has read and commented on Stratagem, and helped it to grow this much. I really never expected something that I formulated in about five minutes to take off like this. And you all have been motivation to keep writing, as any other time I probably would have dropped a project like this long ago. So again, thank you everyone.

"The Game" How Far Can You Go?
I just passed Level 10, then it went to the hand and globe picture that said it would be harder from then on. Then all I get is a black screen with a login thing when I click on the Level 12 link. I'm confused, is that screen Level 12? Or is it still Level 11?

Ah, knew I was missing something there. I'm not a Firefox user, but I found the equivalent on IE.

"The Game" How Far Can You Go?
You mean the picture where it says 'The solution is at the source"? I got to that part. I have no clue what "the source" means. I saw it on the page that you linked to, it said to check The Source for clues, but I still have no idea what that means.

Is God real post your thoughts!
Mrpez, that is an interesting way to look at it, and funnily enough I heard something simialr in a religion class today. God maight as well be real for the impact that the notion of him has had on the world. I mean, really, this is a 28-page thread on an MMORPG fansite debating the existence of God. And no matter what you believe about Jesus Christ, he has made much more enormous of an impact on the world than any other single man ever has and most likely ever will. As a being whose existence is so debated and questioned, God sure has affected the entire history of the earth, regardless of whether He is real or not.

Getting "chipped" in the future?
Well, generally, parents don't intend for anyone else but them to have access to the information, especially not the government. And since they are legal guardians, there really wouldn't be any violation of rights there. But I tend to think that if you're so hopeless of a parent that you need a GPS to keep track of your kids, they need to be put under better guardians.

Dec 10 Update - Rally under a banner and join the fight!
How is standing there rioting doing anything? You're still paying them as you do it, and as long as they are getting your money Jagex doesn't give a crap what you do, aside from getting ticked off and mass banning people. If you want to hurt their money supply and hate what they've done so much, then quit. Don't want to quit? Then live with what Jagex has done as long as you still have a desire to play. The paradox is on you. The only way you are going to make an impact is by quitting, and once you quit any changes won't affect you.

Getting "chipped" in the future?
I would regard putting one of those chips in a human as an invasion of privacy. And who knows how far it could be taken. . .

Dec 10 Update - Rally under a banner and join the fight!
Um, sorry to intrude on your little world here, but Jagex isn't a government. They are a corporation that owns a game. The people who play it have no rights. Jagex can do whatever they damn want to, and no 'power to the people' riot is going to stop them.

His Dark Materials - Parental right violation?
You missed his point. He was saying that you are able to teach morals without using religion OR anti-religion. Basicallly, you don't have to use atheistic OR religious views to teach a moral code. He was listing examples of what you might say to your children when teaching either of the two standpoints. EDIT: just saw that you fixed that :) .

most personally anticipated show/movie of 2008?
So it did end up being renewed? I remember all the fan outrage against its cancellation, and the encore episodes thing, but never heard whether it would be back for a second season. I'm still waiting for Lost. It had better come back in February like it was supposed to. . . If that strike ends soon it might, since they've got eight episodes ready to go.

quit complaining about pking/staking/merching!!!
Let me say something very simple and to the point. Think about that statement. It's not hard, just process the meaning of that simple sentence. I rest my case.

His Dark Materials - Parental right violation?
Those Christians are called Insane Christians. I am a Christian and see nothing wrong with the film. In fact a good friend of mine who is the son of a preacher said that his dad and him liked it. I was raised in a Christian family, I've identified myself as a Christian all my life, so yeah, I know what you mean. I loved the books and can't believe people are making such a big deal out of this.

Hypocrites: The Players or the Staff?
I can actually see how that can be construed as offensive. . . but you really have to be looking for a perverted meaning first. Pretty sad.

The Golden Compass
There is definitely already a topic on this here, although this might fly as a separate topic in MM&T.

(lock) My friend wants to commit suicide...
Not to be mean or anything, but based on your previous posts and where this thread is going, it's starting to sound like you're just seeking attention. If this is real, for the love of God, call the frikkin' police. They'll at least be able to give you advice if they truly can't do anything, which is extremely unlikely.
