    what game?

    fate of the world

    tried the last few turns again twice

    china, india, and north africa fell

    the root problem is me not weaning people off coal, especially china and india

    coal is not as versatile as oil (no synthetic coal, no coal shales or sands), so it runs out faster

    and with a shortage of coal comes a large decline in agriculture and industry, because energy/commerce gets supplies first

    when agriculture and industry decline but commerce does not, you get closer and closer to a 2:1 ratio, and that triggers a financial collapse

    so next time, I need to get them onto more oil and natural gas, and then once breeder reactors and biofuels and such are up maximize those

    also maybe deploy a geneplague on india

    so I still have an acute case of TOR fever but a playthrough of KOTOR is helping, as is doing a game of Star Wars Saga with my friends

    but the best thing is that Deus Ex is coming out soon. That will drive away the specter of all lesser games for a good long time to come.

    My plan to make sopapillas tonight is foiled by the lack of shortening.

    Just use lard, or unsalted butter, or even margarine in a pinch.

    You don't need shortening - things like Crisco weren't even invented until recently.

    did you see the youtube footage from the leaked review code? suffice to say this is no invisible war. at the very least I think it's a strong GOTY contender unless the game takes a sudden turn for awful-ness in the latter two thirds.

    Well, okay, Syndalis.

    LoL: I tried playing it for a few weeks. I was not overly impressed, but I'll accept that that's probably a taste issue.

    i still think it is unpolished and broken. I am split on the design differences between it and Hon but Hon doesn't have all the bugs Lol does, or the patch day woes, or the broken sort in the store. Plus i like being able to pick any character I want.

    edit: but i play it constantly because i have tons of cheap friends who won't pay the $30 for HoN and like the gentler learning curve of LoL
