Meh, looks like just another space sim. I like the genre, but I'm not seeing anything...

I am IN.

I kinda like the look and sound of the Wyr (seems vaguely Orky), but I would probably play as the Free Nations at first. A nice, well-rounded faction is also the most flexible, and is less vulnerable to power-gaming.

@ Neyvn: On the front page of the website, it says that it is a single-player game. Dunno if they plan to add multiplayer later.

Max somehow managed to take out both Tycho and myself with a flush on the river card, beating my somewhat lower flush I had since the beginning of the hand.

Hey, you just asked to be linked to something else. You never asked for something that would guarantee your sanity

I have never eaten at or even seen a Chik-Fil-A. I don't think they have any in my neck of the woods.

A hypothetical situation that relies on my understanding of copyright law and those who are against it:

At some point in the future, a food company breeds a new variety of fish. This fish is fast-growing, easy to care for, and most importantly of all is tasty and nutritious. This effort takes years and quite a lot of money.

Shortly after the fish is announced and the fish farms are set up, a rival company manages to steal a few breeding pairs and breed his own fish, who breed more fish, etc. Those are given to other companies, who breed and pass them on, etc. Now pretty much everyone has a fish of their own and the original company made zero profit off of the time and money spent.

Now, fish aren't digital downloads or whatever, but is it really so bad for an artist to ask for appreciation and compensation for his/her/their work? Yes, a number of products have been successful despite being free, but I'm fairly certain that they are the exception, not the rule, and either the makers of those products have to pursue a career (thus lowering productivity) or they subsist on donations like Toady.

Like I implied at the beginning, copyright law is not my strongpoint.

Thinking way too small there, kaijyuu. Assuming a truly infinite universe, there are an infinite number of perfectly identical Earths, with exact duplicates of me typing this exact message and posting it at this exact instant.

Suck it, probability.

Hell, we see it in that video. Other than the chick who kept "singing", the others were baited into responding to questions and showing the extent of their knowledge.
