    Yeah, unfortunately the game's player base dwindled and it no longer became profitable to run the games servers. And the game needed those servers. Because I send 10 seconds of orders to my units, you send 10 seconds of orders to your units, both of these orders are sent to the server, the server figures out how these two sets of orders play out against each other, and the results get sent back to both of us.

    So, no servers, no game :(

    was this the one that sort of looked like x-com?

    @Preacher, you will be proud of me for what I'm finally watching.

    Ya'll want to play the game of kings. The sport of Emperors and demons alike. It is Warlocks.

    I can bust those moves in real time, but I was pretty baller.

    It's like chess only you cast fireballs, summons monsters and charm the enemy. It was usually 1v1.

    Legitimately, the 2nd best game I've ever played behind chess for solid mechanical foundation. It really could be chess in an alternate timeline.

    Quite possibly DUE.

    My friends and I actually cracked open my old copy the other day and had some good laughs.

    If I got all of chat into warlocks, I don't even know how happy I'd be. I'd probably just die and ascend to a new plane. I haven't played in years though.

    Is it still active? I'll give it the old college try at some point at least once.

    Everyone should play Warlocked.

    It's a stripped-down clone of Warcraft for the Gameboy Color, featuring terrible voice samples and sprite flicker issues. It was so damn awesome though. I loved it.

    I'm pretty happy that WB decided the best way to revive Looney Tunes was to allow some goofy animators with a smartassed sense of humor to go to town on it. I know it could have been so much worse.

    also inqui if you are around i went into work for 2 and a half freaking hours

    the reason i went in is that a big deadline was COB friday and I asked my boss if i could bail early to go to happy hour and finish over the weekend

    he said yes

    i came in and found an email awaiting me from mr gold buyer that basically said

    "I changed this thing for aesthetic reasons and I'm sure it broke your stuff. FYI."

    You do not leave the build broken in the middle of a delivery you fucking moron

    okay found that cd. i am going to be so pissed if I put the the border thing on the back panel of the mother board on improperly.

    if that's preventing the ethernet cable from fully connecting i'll have to take the whole thing apart. whooo buddy.

    then again i guess that beats all alternatives since it's a rather simple solution.

    Alpha Protocol is cheap! $11.49 on Amazon. I just need to buy something else to qualify for free shipping.

    What's a good graphic novel?

    DUE, you're running Windows 7 hopefully? Try typing "color" into the taskbar search and click on Color Management. It sounds like the color profile for your monitor is fucked up.

    Also don't install video drivers from a CD. Let Windows do it for you (if you're running 7) or download them from AMD/NVIDIA.

    The reason why Arrested Development came up earlier was because it's COMING THE FUCK BACK TO TV AND THE MOVIE IS ACTUALLY HAPPENING?

    I hope tracking down his commit was easy so you could remove it.

    Wow, I'm raging really hard at your misfortune. I want to punch this guy in the face.

    Why isn't there a code freeze with the exception of major functionality?

    Fuck that guy is a dick.

    Is your Ethernet off your motherboard or did you install a separate card.
