The Syndicate

Read it. The first chapters had me dying of laughter, but then I felt it (ironically) went nowhere. Sounds like a good choice, though. Maybe upon a second read...? Maybe if I read it in original? Douglas Adams clicked so well when I read it straight from the source.

I have to think on this~ my initial reaction is to nominate Ulysses, by Joyce. I have never read it. But I have not read alot of things :) I read it last year. I don't recommend it. I took a class on Irish lit. I also don't recommend it. Joyce was a master of short stories. His novels were pretenti...

Temps perdu sounds more like "time lost/wasted" in my language, which would not be unlike my experience reading the first volume.

That Romance of the Three Kingdoms sounds familiar for some reason. Let's read that.

I don't have friends, though.

How would you be able to win afterwards, if we do?

And it was a short fight. R.I.P.

"1984" by George Orwell I was born the year before. Things weren't so bad. Cartoons were the shit. :disappoint: "Catch-22" by Joseph Heller There's a hint in the title and in the author's last name. Dunno if this is good or bad. "Dune" by Frank Herbert Hot, dry book. :...

Sounds like the old block is posting as the chip to me, tbh.

Pre-reviews and first ep reviews were bad and, I have to say, the first episode alone was all over the place and poorly written. I've read only one pre-review that said this season is portraying an L.A. crime story the way it should. I'm not invested in anyone, at the moment. As far as I understand ...

Either would be quite fine.

But of course.

And with juicy bacon on the side.

Yeah I'm not gonna lose those pounds anytime soon.

I had an omelette for breakfast today.

Can I marry myself anywhere in America? I'm clearly my best and only possible match.

Well I absolutely love raisins, which means I also like cookies with raisins, but oatmeal cookie sounds like something I can live without.

Is this turning into our Day 0 meta conflict? Haters of raisins beware!

Went hunting today.

Everyone should watch "Silicon Valley". Probably the best supporting ensemble in any comedy since Parks & Rec (though a TOTALLY different vibe/tone than P&R). It's fucking hilarious, especially if you have personal experience in or connections to people in the Tech/software indust...

Ok wow I really don't see one bit of the spoiler text on my tablet. Maybe rezzd Jon will be intentionally recast. Idk what to make of his statements, because it can easily be a ruse from the producers, as for the hairdo... :shrug: I still have friends who legitimately claim Jon is essential to the w...

I also got a recommendation from a non-Henry person to read it, but it must be like 3000 pages long and mneh, not in the mood yet.

What I Talk About Wen I Talk About Running Did you enjoy this one? This is the only one I've read side from Kafka , and I enjoyed it. But running is a hobby of mine, so I am curious if it still entertains for the non-runners. I can also jog once a day for 30 minutes without having a heart attack. :...

I think both those books are among my favourite of his, although I'm slowly forgetting anything from his books except for Kafka , which I've read twice. I'm anxious to buy his new IQ84 trilogy, because I hear it's pretty caarp. Yeah I have read Kafka twice, one of my favourites. The Wind Up Bird Ch...

Never read the book (instead, I read some Austen ones ayyy :blush:), but occasionally had to watch a few adaptations because girlfriends ("So you like literature?" "Not as much as you read, but yeah" "Oh, like what?" "Jane Eyre and Wuthututu" "Oh." *...

Isn't that an intrigue worthier of Downton Abbey Mafia?

Also, can't we add Triceratops by default, his avatars already show him?

Someone took growing facial hair for this game quite literally.

Silly rant below. Double warning for members who haven't read the books all the way through (or haven't been spoiled, at least) to seriously not open the spoiler tab. So even though it's pretty obvious by now how much the show is capable of twisting with people's minds and reactions during shocking ...

How did you even get to a P-score of 50? http://www.progarchives.com/forum/smileys/smiley3.gif I failed pretty hard at basic participation in llama's Keeler game. :srsnod: I think that was when I was in full-on comps panic-meltdown mode, and I just could not keep up.

She's only played two games since we implemented the P Score. It will come back up with time.

I want her at 100 when Inception will start.

So probably after I bore everyone to death with my post-rock game...

I actually have in mind a favourite name if I'll ever have a baby girl (not that I have my hopes high or anything

), but I don't for boys, so I just joke around that I'll simply name him Jose Arcadio.

If game starts next week, I will be highly inactive.
If game starts in two weeks, I will be active. Or I will be highly inactive on purpose.

Does SVS work at City Wok?

This doesn't rhyme in English, but there was a famous operator here at the national television back in the commie years called Salomeea Guinea. Also I kid you not, a few years ago there was an election race in some village between - hmm should I put it as PG-13 as possible in translation? - a Mr. Bl...

Also, the font color of the spoiler text should really be darker because arrgh my eyes.

I'm still digesting what I just witnessed during the season finale. On the whole, I've found this season to be a massive disappointment. The show runners took their chance and tried to stand on their own artistic merits. The writing has been abysmal. The plot lines have been contrived and uninteres...

Long Con is male, while SVS, rather not.

Checking a player's ISO for a specific game works the same way in any thread on this forum, by clicking "In Topic" below the player's post count.

I avidly read all six books when I was young, but I now hardly remember anything.

I liked them up to the Children, but after that, especially the last (official) one, they were pretty dire indeed.

Struggling to even pick up Alex Shteyngart's Absurdistan the past weeks. I only ever failed to finish a few books in my life, but maybe I should reconsider in this case and read some Rimbaud instead.

Oh, it also seems you never used Hail.

Cheers, LC. I think your Lice curse on Rachel didn't affect anyone, since she didn't receive votes on Day 5, as far as I can tell.

I'm gonna write down that Samuel (Spacedaisy) and Mordecai (Xth) got feuded on Night 7, based on Daisy's guess, at least until Llama confirms it.

I might borrow "Go on, do your duty" for whenever I will get mislynched again.

I was glad to have detected Jacob's hint, because I'm usually not good at detecting anything. He basically said something in the vein that civs need him alive, especially as long as they keep lynching Heathens. Clear Joshua as prolonged day.

I know of Arianne and other characters only from reading wiki synopsis. She sounded hot and important and I would have preferred to see her included in the show.

Sure thing!

I probably won't know how to adapt to playing those.

I'll be eaten alive by the players who come from other sites and are way more familiar with it.

Ah, so Uzziah incapacitated Cain on Day 2.

I actually got that mixed with Nicodemus silencing me, Ruth, Paul.

Wait, Vompatti actually listened to you?

Massive civilian BTSC or games with open BTSC rather than restricted fall under a special category, methinks. The easiest way would be to think about when you sketch the game and write down two or three particular civilians having BTSC from the very start (or gaining upon role search). That kind of ...
