[TF2] It's MANN Vs. Machine!
I read a story once about how microsoft had a project to bridge the multiplayer gap between xbl and pc online - the project got cancelled after they realized pc gamers routinely destroyed xbox gamers due to the pc controlls being better - and microsoft didn't want xbox to look bad :D

10% of the World's Muslims can reasonably be defined
Even though obviously 10% is a lot, it's still a small minority compared to the rest. It doesn't suprise me much, the states is basically a foreign occupier in several muslim countries (reasons irrellevant) so it makes sense that there's a lot of anger about that. I'd warrant that 10% of christains at least harbour ill feelings towards other religions (although perhaps not such a large percentage wish them physical harm).

The Obligatory Ice Hockey Thread
Yeah it was pretty iffy. Still, it got the job done eh. Didn't like gustavsson's play during the game but hey, he made it up in the shootout.

More USA documents get released by Wikileaks
Thought this was interesting: http://www.cbc.ca/world/story/2010/12/06/wikileaks-canada-infrastructure.html Most of it seems like common sense, but it does seem like that information could definitely be useful to terrorists.

It's still possible to access wikileaks - if you know the IP address. It's largely impractical but if it's posted somewhere and people bookmark it its easy.

(twr)alkaedalatin vs lec
I just wanted to clarify that no points have been awarded for this war as LEC has not yet been added to the list. The declaration topic should have been locked, but LEC's second official never posted on their join topic to confirm so we're still waiting on that before they can be added.

What are your reasons of living?
Well the religious would say you live so that you can make yourself ready for God. At very least, you live because life is a gift. It is true that many people will not have a huge impact, and their legacy will be minimal - but that's not everyone. Personally, I believe we live to leave the world a better place then when we arrived.

So weird to see people skating without hockey skates and in a rink without hockey marks/boards lol.

The Obligatory Ice Hockey Thread
Leafs game was good, like Khadri's goal more than Kessel's though. Not a perfect game but I'll take it :D

The official World of Warcraft thread.
Never played the class (beyond level 10) so I wouldn't be able to tell you. Saw all sorts of cataclysm ads today. Kind of what to start again....but I know I probably shouldn't.

Wonder what'll happen if Kessel scores :P

Yeah, they got their domain dropped.

Do players on pro teams who sit benched "earn" their ring?
My opinion is that this is better suited to the sports forum. Moved :P

The Obligatory Ice Hockey Thread
Yeah I'd heard armstrong was back. I can't see that working at all. Still, I guess we'll wait and see.

The official World of Warcraft thread.
:thumbup: to darkdude. Jagex has the ability to do whatever they want, but contrary to popular belief they do have the game's best interests at heart. I still can't decide whether to come back or not...

[TF2] It's MANN Vs. Machine!
Fair enough. Guess it depends on play style, as does pretty much everything in this game lol.

[TF2] It's MANN Vs. Machine!
Only if you're not great at soldier. If you're good at it the damage boost is significant if you're getting direct hits. It really depends whether you want to play individually or as a team. Gunboats are definitely better as an individual, but the buff banner team buff is pretty epic. Yeah, but it's better then the bottle for melee, at least as far as i've found. Yeah, the sandwich is good for when you have a medic at low health. Not so much for yourself. Once again, team vs individual. You can majorly increase damage with jarate, plus coat spies, or put out fire - your team will thank you if you're good with jarate. And once again, team vs individual. Backburner is great as an individual player - but it doesn't beat the flexibility of the normal one. Degreaser is meant for flame + axtinguisher players, and can be extremely useful if used correctly.

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
Here's the thing. Regardless of what happened between you guys in the past, it's over - and you're just friends now. So, tell her as you'd tell a friend - casually, without any special drama. If she (ex) has a problem with that, then you have a whole other problem on your hands since she obviously still has feelings for you.

Not really. I hate to say it, but the general population/average voter is pretty uninformed, and doesn't really look at the bigger picture. Governments are generally made up of the most intelligent citizens (obviously some exceptions) and I guess it's a personal thing but I do trust them to usually make the right decisions.
