    And to step on his Give away, I have my next giveaway contest starting now! Until 6:30PM EASTERN TIME.

    This time it isn't random, it's a game of skill. Pick one and give it your best. Post it here on the forums or in a PM. Winner gets a $5 or lesser item from steam of their choice.

    Be kind to your Noun-footed Noun(plural)
    For a duck may be somebody`s Noun,
    Be kind to your Noun(plural) in Place
    Where the weather is always Adjective.

    You may think that this is the Noun,
    Well it is.

    ________________________________


    Two Noun(plural), both alike in dignity,
    In fair Place, where we lay our scene,
    From ancient Noun break to new mutiny,
    Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean.
    From forth the fatal loins of these two foes
    A pair of star-cross`d Noun(Plural) take their life;
    Whole misadventured piteous overthrows
    Do with their Noun bury their parents` strife.
    The fearful passage of their Adjective love,
    And the continuance of their parents` rage,
    Which, but their children`s end, nought could Verb,
    Is now the Number hours` traffic of our stage;
    The which if you with Adjective Body Part attend,
    What here shall Verb, our toil shall strive to mend.
    ___________________________________

    I enjoy long, Adjective walks on the beach, getting Verb Ending in "ED" in the rain and serendipitous encounters with Noun(plural). I really like piña coladas mixed with Liquid, and romantic, candle-lit Noun(Plural). I am well-read from Dr. Seuss to Famous Person. I travel frequently, especially to Place, when I am not busy with work. (I am a Occupation.) I am looking for Noun and beauty in the form of a Nationality goddess. She should have the physique of Female Celebrity and the Noun of Female Friend. I would prefer if she knew how to cook, clean, and wash my Noun(Plural). I know I’m not very attractive in my picture, but it was taken Number days ago, and I have since become more Adjective.

    ________________________


    The Color Dragon is the Superlative(ending in EST) Dragon of all. It has Adjective Body Part (Plural), and a Body Part shaped like a Noun. It loves to eat Animal(Plural), although it will feast on nearly anything. It is Adjective and Adjective. You must be Adjective around it, or you may end up as it`s meal!

    Stipulations: No new people to the forums, and no people who've already gotten lots of things!

    So this thread is fast as hell, I just spent like an hour in Warband, and it had 4 pages.

    In other news, Warband is insane fun. I officially suck with the bow (real physics, it's hard to hit targets, you actually need skill). But gimme a Barchie, or Warmace, and I'm smacking down fools. I died a ton, but had a blast. The MP is insane, having a coordinated group (a la Magic Sword Kings), I could see lots of fun happening.

    So much fun. I might work on getting a dedicated server up for us.

    I bought it, but haven't been able to play any yet. I played the Cogs demo back when it first came out and it was excellent, but I was broke at the time and forgot about it till now. For $5, if you like puzzles, I think it's worth it.

    Do you like those sliding block puzzles that look like this:

    If so, you'll love Cogs. If you're like me, you will despise Cogs.

    Tidalis is worth the price of admission. It's a great take on the match three variety of puzzlers with some interesting twists, a ton of modes, user created puzzles and more. It seems like I heard good things about Puzzle Dimension too.

    Some mods are only compatible with normal Mount and Blade, so you miss out on them until they're ported to Warband (which may be "years to never" in the case of some mods)
