Dark Messiah works perfectly well on my 5-year-old barely-upgraded Vista. Sounds like a problem with your system.

If Kaffir Boy got approved, I'm not surprised that KR did.

I remember reading The Kite Runner in high school. We were taking a sort of advanced English class that focused on things like foreign and civil rights literature.

If you are interested (and it sounds like you might be), go to your local bookstore/library and search for "Off Armageddon Reef". It's the first in the series.

Try the Safehold series by David Weber. It's a bizarre mix of sci-fi and fantasy; although everything in the book is futuristic technology, from the viewpoints of many characters it is magic. It's also solid writing and will teach you more about old-school navel and ground warfare than you ever needed to know.

I have a fairly good-sized collection here at home. What sort of stuff are you interested in, RedWarrior?

Obama's response:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
So Barack remained silent?

I'll give a big hearty recommendation for Borderlands; just about everything in this game (except the driving controls, and even those are manageable) is fun and finding the perfect collection of randomized guns is addictive. You WILL be checking all the loot you find, on the off chance of finding a rare and powerful gun, shield, or class mod that gives you new and improved capabilities.

The micromanagement and constant comparisons of guns gets old fast.
Depends on if you like micromanagement and comparison of guns or not :)

Who doesn't like the micromanagement and comparison of guns?
Darvi, from the sound of it :P

SUDDEN UNEXPECTED CHANGE OF TOPIC!

Since I'm not sure if this is a good kickstarter or a bad one, I'm just posting it here for now: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/w21/super-techno-kitten-adventure/
Watch the video at least, it's pretty fun in a WTF kind of way...
Well...that was pretty WTF-inducing, alright O_o

@ Lagslayer: Ah, but the pink unicorn wasn't invisible, was it?

@ kaijyuu: True.

I'd call it agnosticism, since you accept the possibility of an invisible unicorn there.

And note that once you trip over it, you prove its existence, so it's not the best of comparisons to religion (none of which have been proven yet). If it was completely intangible too, then it'd make a better analogy, but I prefer elephants for my invisible intangible pets.
Wait wait wait. I can trip over my own shoes sometimes. I'm pretty clumsy. I'd be far more likely to believe that I tripped over something else than an invisible pink unicorn.

I might not have noticed, but "Undead Economics" was a dead giveaway :P

I don't think it's a problem anyway, lots of forum games are based on existing properties.

It does not, however, happen all of the time. Last I played (which was still when just about everyone had bad lag, mind, before the server upgrade) I rarely got limboed. It seems to happen most often to high TL players and systems, or at least they're the most vocal about it.
