My tolerance is low to begin with!

From the look in his eyes, it's some cocktail of acid and PCP.

I need to play it... and Undertale, still, among others.

Indeed.

Transistor Mafia, huh?

Still need to play that game.

Just putting the word out because it's going to happen.

Looking forward to it.

I'm not, but might be in a little bit here.

The game I've been working on most recently is my Earthbound game, but I've been too busy to do much with it for a while, and so I doubt I'll have it submitted for some time.

Maybe as a host I'll start advertising it in my games as a place to talk OT.

Metalmarsh89 wrote:Agreed.

I think we should also encourage all those dead players to wander over here after they are killed in games.

Agreed!

Metalmarsh89 wrote:And technically I'm not dead or drunk in any games.

But that's ok, because I run the show here.

Me neither!

I figured this is a good enough "chat thread" that it's not worth creating a different one, particularly since this one historically hasn't received high usage. I'd like to change that though.

Bummer.

Anyone around and want to chat with your favorite talking sock? I could throw out some conversation.

Well, unfortunately I'm pretty tired and dozing off. I'll likely be back here tomorrow night though, maybe with some

I cannot endorse this statement enough.

Maybe I'll try it in May.

Metalmarsh89 wrote:Tem out of Tem Temmies would post in this thread and vote in the poll.

I really need to play Undertale.

OVER 2,000 TIMES

Or you could just keep talking to me about stuff.

We need a new poll here.

Metalmarsh89 wrote:2,000 posts in 3 hours = ~666 posts per hour = ~11.1 posts per minute.

Good luck young grasshopper.

That's actually possible, I think, but I'd have to spam quite a bit.

Metalmarsh89 wrote:Are you planning on hitting 20,000 posts tonight?

Is that even humanly possible? How many posts per second/minute/hour would it take?

Would you look at that, I've posted more than 18,000 posts.

Sweet!

We just had Skyline. I was suffering huge withdrawal, but my parents bought some and brought it down this past Christmas and Davidwithteeth gave us some as a gift too.
I sort of miss skyline as well.

It's the strangest food in that it is both amazingly bad and amazingly tasty at the same time. If that makes sense.

I don't know what you're talking about, it's amazingly good and amazingly tasty.

Cream cheese is amazing. Did you know I'm actually mildly lactose intolerant? I haven't always been, but it started like almost 10 years ago, and most of the time I just deal with it and eat dairy anyway, even though I shouldn't. :P

What are you up to now? Annie and I are just chilling (Friday night ftw) and watching Psych.

Were they ever. They made me want to go buy some bacon and jalapeños and make some.

Consider me jealous!

Sorry for my absence too, I went to the store and beat Annie in Mottainai.

What's up, S~V~S?

Sloon?

Sup Syndicate? Anyone around to chat?

Hi Turnip Head!

That's one sad story.
Two of them were within a THREE MINUTE span. I think it's beautiful.

It'd be even crazier if it was your birthday.

Turnip Head wrote:I died twice in the last 30 minutes

Bummer.

I've been there. It sucks.

Duly noted! I played some MTG and Pokemon back in the day, but only very casually.

I haven't! I wish I had more time for gaming.

I'm going to start working on that though.

How highly recommended is Hearthstone, good sir?

My friends and I used to play AoE3 way too much.

Hello, Wilgy!

AoE III was fun too, I just was hyperobsessed with II, since I was convinced it was the best.

Never played it. Worth a recommendation?
The Mechwarrior 4 series is timeless.
Duly noted.
Mechwarrior 4: Mercenaries is where it's at though. You pick a clan to fight for, and you take up contracts to make money and scrap weapons and armor. Eventually, your choices put you on one side of the civil war or the other.

Sweet shit. Hard as hell too.

Sounds cool to me.

I miss playing Age of Empires II.

...and Post #13,000. :yay:

Got somewhere you'd rather be?

I'm dead too.

Metalmarsh89 wrote:But I don't hate them. The best live King Crimson videos I have seen are those from the 80's.

But I will definitely say that Discipline is heads and shoulders above the other 80's albums.

I know you don't.

I will agree with you there. Discipline is one of my desert island albums. :drums:

thellama73 wrote:I put off buying Islands for years because everyone hates it so much. When I finally heard it, I was amazed at how good it was and confused about why no one else likes it. I'm still confused about that, actually.
It is a beautiful album, the likes of which I have never heard before, nor do I expect to hear anything like it again.

Islands is solid. I don't understand the hate either.

What I don't understand more is the hate for 80s Crimson, particularly Beat.

80s Crimson forever!

MovingPictures07 wrote:Okay, so here's an exercise:

Rank King Crimson albums. You want to? Let's do it.
Without looking at the other lists (and without being dead). Here's mine.

Larks' Tongues in Aspic
Red
Discipline
Islands
Starless and Bible Black
The Power to Believe
Lizard
In the Court of the Crimson King
THRAK
Beat
Three of a Perfect Pair
In the Wake of Poseidon
The ConstruKction of Light

We have the same Top 3.

Just you have them in the wrong order.

Our wildly divergent opinions on Discipline explain a lot about why you love Talking Heads and I don't really like them.

Indeed!

And don't worry, I still really like Lizard, I just don't like it as much as the 9 above it.

Depends on my mood as well, but I think that list is pretty solid.
