Check the mod forum(s). It's possible, but blazes if I know how.

... link to something that's not a live stream?

Hrm... may I be added to the Orcs Must Die! GOTY (on the 23rd) and Spellforce Platinum Edition (25th) drawings? Previously entered here and... actually, everything's still in alphabetical order with that, so... rules still met, haha!

And, all else being equal, you can always go find a nice town to pop the boss off in. Once it inevitably aggros the guards, you have help!

As mentioned earlier, avian sky pirates work as well, you just (seem to) have to dig up their ship so a bunch of them end up on the surface.

Last I remember it was at the very bottom of the... well, either the crafting table or the anvil. Pretty sure you can craft it before the UFO drops, unless there was an update I didn't notice.

Maybe needs a new character, if the one is from before the update that included the lantern? Dunno.

E: Actually, let me just go check. I can do that! Just a mo'.
E2: Yup, very bottom of the crafting table. 500 pixels, 10 unrefined wood, 15 iron bars.

Or not.

Just... don't buy games that are ripping folks off. Stick to companies that don't practice the behavior. S'probably the only way any change has even the possibility of coming about, short of consumer protection laws coming in and locking down on it.

... just remember to include a vector graphic wind scorpion, somewhere. And good luck :P

My question would be who the royalties would go toward in a case where you've got a VHI being used for porn and its initial pattern giver still walking around. Assuming anyone's getting paid at all (And seriously, what becomes of R34 when you've regularly got whoever it's being made of actually dropping in for commenting and critique?), who gets the money? Is it split?

Would my VHI have power of attorney on me? That, in particular, would be interesting. I'm pretty sure I'd dick myself over at least once, for the giggles.

E: Can... could you pimp a virtual copy of yourself out? The legalities involving digital copies of fully sentient beings would be glorious.

... Depp and Freeman in the same movie, the latter in leather.

Oh gods.

The fanfiction ;_;

... y'know, without clicking on it, I wonder. The raised by Joker one?

I haven't read that one. Seen it in passing a few times, but...

... I can afford a computer, sorta'. I can't afford any other gaming-capable console (and the computer only because it's kinda' necessary for what m'doing/intending to do), and likely won't be able to justify the cost of 'em* even once that state changes.

So, uh. PC going forward into the foreseeable future.

*I've got access to far more (really good) games than I'll ever be able to play to completion with just the PC (especially if you throw emulation into the fire). Dropping 3+ months worth of food on a box to play games I'll either be able access immediately on the comp due to cross-platform or via other means years down the line is... silly?

Yeeaah... exposure "therapy", from what I recall, is... incredibly spotty, from the research on it that's been done. The better of it ramps up gradually, but any of it is, apparently, about as likely to backfire as to help in any way.

The temptation when someone says "you just gotta' face your fears" or whatev' (especially when dealing with actual, full blown phobia) is to beat them about the head and shoulders with a recent psych textbook until they get the point or stop moving, whichever comes last first.

20353
Yeaahh... s'one of those things you look at and wonder: Why the blue hell is this not illegal*?

Also maybe when exactly the marketing side of things went straight to hell... or if it started there, I guess.

*Of course, some of it is and it's just not enforced worth a damn. It's a bloody wonderful feeling when you call the cops about harassing telemarketers and all they say is "Yeah, it's illegal, but we can't stop it."

Yet another tally mark in the "Why the hell are we paying these people" column :-\

20354
Telemarketers, especially those that prey on the elderly and the fearful, can go die in a goddamn fire.

Why is it is seems like only the scummiest of bullshit is regulated to cold and automated calls these days, anyway? Is it just that I didn't deal with it enough when I was younger, and don't remember how scuzzy it was then, as well?

Not sure if you're comedically missing the point, but that's two Florans, and one is crouching.
Can a person not simply be hoping to play as short humanoids? Anything to shave off a block from the character model, because I swear the most annoying thing about this game right now is that the dig radius is 3x3 and the character's size 4xwhatever.
