Stay a while and listen!

Well said. These biases you point out are illustrative of why survey writing is so much harder than you'd think.

Interestingly enough, you don't always need people to tell the truth on a survey. Some subjects, such as sexism or racism, are almost impossible to get at directly so you plan for a less-than-honest…

Oddly, enough, I had the exact same thought.

Well, I'm pretty sure that internal bleeding is pretty rare, but I can sympathize with trying to eat off a gluten free menu and getting burned. It happens pretty often, both at restaurants and with "gluten free" food in stores, which is why I'm *stoked* that the FDA jumped on this.

I mentioned on a thread a few months…

In this case, both genders are extremely stylized, with the men either made out of bricks or gourds and their faces are 90% chin to the ladies' 90% eyeball. When it's a case of women being stylized and men being pretty much normally proportioned, I agree with you, but I'm not opposed on principle to something like…

I'm not sure if this is better or worse than Nick Cage's face on everything . . .

I kind of would have loved him in an Italian flag.

But probably because the US is such a large consumer of Japanese games . . .

We turned the compliment function all the way up to 999, the highest setting on the dial. That was a bit extreme, wasn't it?

Yeah. . . . the show managed to carry its own through the characters and some very cleverly written episodes by the end, but the missed potential really hurts.

I agree. But mostly I'm replying so I can tell you that your icon is awesome.

The weirdest thing for me is actually the updated score. The tone is so spot on that I'm expecting the music from the old anime to pop up.

Not loving the art, particularly how they're doing the girls' lips and the transformation sequence, but liked it overall.

It's amazing how almost anything can sound deep and profound with a rousing orchestral score accompanying it.

So we'll finally see Zuko, huh?

I actually read a Magic: The Gathering book when I was in middle school. Wasn't great, but interesting enough and definitely better than a lot of dime fantasy novels I've come across.

I haven't done anything with this franchise for quite some time now, but I do remember reading about the Weatherlight and the characters…

So . . . I kind of want Bioware to make the new installment the modern equivalent of this game, minus the galaxy-destroying aliens and transferring the ship combat to ground combat.

Absolutely. I enjoyed those two episodes more than the entirety of Book 2.

Okay, that's a bit harsh—I liked the sky bison picnic and pretty much everything to do with Varrick as well. But my goodness did I not really care about Korra after watching Wan.

I'm interested to see if this will play out Homeworld style, with you commanding a fleet which you keep with you from mission to mission. 'Cause that was one of the coolest features of that game.

Can confirm. Even small ones gain an awful old blood smell that never quite goes away.

I actually really like the in-film explanation of Phoenix. Ir worked better for the story the trilogy was trying to tell, and had the potential to be really compelling. Unfortunately, they didn't *go* anywhere with this new take on Phoenix, and we were left with a bunch of meh.

I actually really liked the Borg kids, especially Icheb and his arc. But I think they worked because it was explained why they were there without any of the adult Borgs on the ship.

As for the rest of the Borg plots . . . a lot of them probably could have worked as well *if* they had explained the change somehow, maybe…
